Valentines Day at Hogwarts
"Harry, Harry wake up!" my eyes slowly opened to see an exited Ron jumping up and down shouting my name. I sat up. "What's the matter?" I asked quietly whilst rubbing my eyes "It's Valentines day!" he said quickly "I know that, but why wake me up at," I glanced at my watch, "7:00AM?" "Look!" he shouted waving a silver envelope and a pink envelope around "Oh cool, who are they for?" I asked looking at Ron's shining eyes "They are for you!" He said with a smile slowly appearing on his face. I got out of bed and sat down on the edge of it, I put my hand out and Ron passed them over. I sat there looking at the envelopes; they both had hearts on and said 'Dear Harry' "Open them then!" Ron yelled "Okay, okay" I said slowly ripping the pink envelope open, it said. 'Dear Harry, I love you and I always have done! Please be my valentine! Love from your number one fan!' it had hearts all over the front and had been carefully outlined with a silver pen. I looked up at Ron. "Who is it from?" he asked curiously "I don't know" I replied, passing the envelope to Ron I began to open the second card when I was interrupted by Ron, "Isn't it obvious?" he asked smiling, I shook my head, "It's from Ginny of course!" he said. I laughed; Ron's little sister had always taken a fancy to me, every year I got a card from her and it was always signed, 'Love from your number one fan' I should have guessed it. Then I realized, every year I always got one card, but this year I had two. I wondered who it could be from and decided that it would be my secret, so I hid it under my bed away from Ron so I could open it in private later. "So, did you get any?" I asked Ron. He put my card from Ginny down and shook his head. "What 'bout the other card?" he asked, "aren't you going to open that?" "I'll save that for later" I answered
Down at breakfast late that morning everyone was talking and ripping open colourful envelopes. I glanced over at Ginny, she looked at me, her little pretty eyes wide, she was a sweet little kid and quite good looking too, of course she had the 'Weasly' look with her ginger hair and freckles but it suited her well. I wouldn't consider her as my girl friend though, just not my type. I smiled at her and her eyes beamed with happiness, she looked a bit embarrassed so I moved my glare to Hermione who was sat opposite me, and was pushing a bit of bacon around her plate. "Not hungry?" I asked smiling. She looked up, her eyes seemed a bit nervous and she was biting her lip. "Not really" she said quietly looking down "What's the matter?" I asked worriedly "Nothing, I'm just not hungry" she sighed. She looked up again, her brown eyes staring straight into mine. Hermione has been one of my best friends since the first year at Hogwarts; she is pretty with long silky brown hair and has a brain like a genius. I would easily have sent her a valentine's card, but I thought maybe it would spoil the friendship. I suppose you could say I'm too nervous to own up to my feelings. The school bell rung and everyone piled out of the hall. I put my arm around Hermione, "are you sure you're ok?" I asked. "Yea I'm fine!" she shouted and stormed off in front. I watched as her pretty hair swished from side to side as she walked off. A sinking feeling filled me as if my hopes of ever being her boyfriend had gone.
