"Ginny!"
"Ginny!"
"Ginny! If you don't come down to breakfast now, I'll give your food to the garden gnomes!"
"I'm coming, I'm coming!" I yelled. I turned over and groaned, and slowly I crawled out of my nice warm bed. My brother is so sweet, note the sarcasm. Don't get me wrong, I love being back at the Burrow. But ever since Mum started forcing Bill and Fleur to make breakfast, mornings had been more than a little chaotic. Not to mention the quality of food had dropped a little, well actually a lot. Mum said that if they want to get married, and get a place of their own, they need to learn how to make food. Something that has been learnt out of this, isn't how to cook, but how much we all appreciate Mum's cooking.
As the wedding was in a few days, everything was very hectic. Today Fleur had to buy her wedding dress and we were going to buy our school books at Diagon Alley. You could Fleur was going to make such a fuss.
I entered the kitchen to the smell of burning toast. Bill really needed to get the hang of cooking and sorting out his timing. I sat down and Fleur put a plate in front of me with something that looked nothing like scrambled egg and toast. It was more like what Ron looks like with the spaghetti eyebrow hex on him.
After breakfast we took the muggle bus to London, and then from the muggles' street, invisible to muggle eye, we stepped into the Leaky Cauldron. We went down this little road to a shop called 'Just Married'. Fleur went through every wedding dress in the whole shop, until after two, yes two, hours she settled on a big, gorgeous and very expensive dress with diamonds on it. She looked great in it, but by then I was dreading the next important item to be bought, too actually care.
As I had to be a bridesmaid along with Fleur's sister, Gabrielle, so we had to try on some dresses too. Nothing in the whole shop, matched flaming red, and silvery blond hair. That was until right at the back of the shop in exactly our sizes, just as we began to despair, we found two sky blue dresses that were just perfect.
But what we found behind the dresses was far from perfect. Since Ron and Hermione had started dating, I found them kissing everywhere and anywhere. Well, I guess they were really bored and thought no one was going to look in the back of the shop. They were really surprised when I accidentally interrupted. Ron jumped up and hit the rail, and sent the whole thing tumbling down. They were both very embarrassed.
Once we had paid for the dresses, and when Mum had finally got over the price, we were allowed to go where we wanted on the condition we bought our school things. Ron and Hermione ran off to this little coffee shop, Fleur and Bill went to the bakery for a wedding cake and Mum, Dad and Charlie went to Fred and George's shop. So I was left alone with Harry. I had had a crush on him since forever. I blushed. He blushed.
"So, Gin, were do you want to go?" Harry asked.
I answered back quickly, trying not to catch his eye. " Um I need some new books, and quills, oh and parchment."
"Ok, then do you want to get some ice cream at Florean Fortescue's place?" He asked.
"Sure," I answered happily. Yay. I would get loads of time alone with Harry.
After a quick half hour getting our school things, we were strolling happily in the sun, munching on very tasty ice cream. We found a bench in the shade of a huge apple tree and sat down.
"Gin listen," He started, "I know this is really sudden, but I've had a crush on you for ages."
My heart was beating really fast, almost too fast.
"I was wondering," He continued," um… if you …. wannagooutonadatesometimeperhaps?"
I looked at him puzzled.
"Oh, um…its ok if you don't want to," He said blushing and looking upset.
"No Harry, what the hell did you just say?" We both blushed.
"Do you want to go out sometime?" He asked nervously.
I dropped my ice cream. "Ok," I said. I couldn't believe what he just asked me. I had been waiting for this for ages. My dream had come true.
