Ginny's Song
Summary: Ginny sings in Hogworth's Talent Show and
blows away the whole school.
Disclaimer: I was a feeling a little goofy. I do not own Harry Potter and friends. Nor
do I own the song.
Ginny had been acting suspiciously ever since the flyer appeared on
the message board. "Compete in Hogworth's Talent Show!" the flyer encouraged,
"Prize includes shopping spree at Otherworld Department Store and Macy's. Be
as creative as you dare." Soon there was a buzz going around the whole school,
Lavender and Pavrati were talking Padma into singing a trio with them. Pansy
Parkinson was pestering Draco Malfoy to help her practice (to the point that
Draco didn't come to meals anymore and Harry came upon him sleeping the prefects
bathroom). Even Hermione owled her parents for her violin and was practicing
by the lake.
Ginny seemed to have disappeared most of the time. She would wolf down
her meals and run off without a word to anyone. Neville and Colin were constantly
asking Ron about her whereabouts, and the youngest Weasley got curious and shared
this with Harry and Hermione.
"Don't worry about her so much, Ron." Hermione said while tuning her violin,
"She's always kept to herself, even as a child, you said so yourself. She's probably
writing her poetry. She's been getting much better than she used to be."
Harry made lazy circles around the two while on his new Firebolt. "I wouldn't
worry about her. She's good at taking care of herself."
Ron merely grunted and let the conversation go.
"So Ginny," Ron walked up to his sister's side and began idly talking, "What
are you doing for the talent show?"
Ginny froze and stammered, "T-talent show? What makes you think I'm going to
be in the talent show?"
"Well, you've been acting weird since it was announced, and you used to love
being in dance recitals. I thought you might be stretching out the old leg muscles."
Ginny laughed, "Ron. You're so funny sometimes!" she then pecked him on the
cheek and wandered off. It took Ron five minutes to realize Ginny never answered
his question.
Ginny continued to be secretive for the next month, talking to Neville, who
began disappearing with her. When either was asked, Ginny would smile while Neville
muttered to be excused.
The day of the Talent Show arrived, and everyone was excited. Draco managed to
"accidently" break his leg, and thus couldn't be Pansy's tango partner. The leggy
Slytherin settled for Marcus Flint, and the two performed fantastically. Lavender and
the Patil Twins did "Fugue for Tinhorns" from "Guys and Dolls." While it was technically
perfect, it didn't have any flare.
Hermione was just finishing up her rousing rendition of "Toccatta and Fugue in D minor"
a la Vanessa Mae. She received a standing ovation, from Ron, Harry and the teachers.
Harry and Ron were sitting together, with Neville beside them. Ginny's partner in
crime wouldn't breath a word. But eventually nodded and pointed to the stage.
It was Ginny's turn. The stage went dark. And Ginny walked out very stately. She had
a microphone headpiece and wore a dark muggle pin-stripe suit and hat. She stood in the
center of the stage and as the music began a pop-techno beat, she began to speak:
"I know I may be young
But I've got feelings too
And I need to do what I feel like doing
So let me go and just listen"
She threw off her hat allowing her shimmering red hair to fall gracefully over
her shoulders, poker straight.
"All you people look at me like I'm a little girl
Well did you ever think it'd be okay for me to step into this world
Always saying,"little girl don't step into the club"
Well I'm just tryin' to find out why cause dancing's what I love
Get it get it, get it get it, whooah"
Get it get it, get it get it, whooah (Do you like it)
Get it get it, get it get it, whooah (This feels good)"
On the last two "whooah"'s Ginny tore off the suit top and bottom, revealing an
outfit of skin tight hip hugging jeans and a mid-drift baring sleeveless top. She wore
a pair of black gloves with the fingertips cut off at different lengths and her neck and
wrists glittered with flashy rhinstones. Every jaw in the auditorium dropped.
"I know I may come off quiet
I may come off shy
But I feel like talking
Feel like dancing when I see this guy"
Lights went on around her and an illusion of a crowded club surrounded, the
spotlight on her and a faceless guy, who she walked towards.
"What's practical is logical
What the hell, who cares?
All I know is I'm so happy when you're dancing there"
She danced seductively next to the guy, running her hands along her body and
shaking her well-shaped hips at him. The illusion guy then put his hands on her hips
just as she began the chorus.
"I'm a slave for you
I cannot hold it
I cannot control it
I'm a slave for you
I won't deny it
I'm not trying to hide it"
With the chorus, she rolled at her hips while the illusion guy held her and
then they went to a series of choreographed movements. Almost every guy in the audience
wished they were the illusion guy. The Weasley brothers (Ron, the Twins and Percy)
tried to rush the stage but were tossed back by an invisible barrier.
"Baby, don't you wanna, dance upon me (I just wanna dance next to you)
To another time and place
Oh Baby, don't you wanna, dance up on me (Are you ready)
Leave behind my name and age(Let's go)
(Like that)
(You like it)
(Yeah)
(Now watch me)"
Ginny then launched into a series of thrusting, heated motions that had everyone
mesmerized. She was absolutely radiatant and not at all the Ginny they were used to
seeing everyday. Ginny controlled the stage and the audience, her illusions perfectly
in sync with the song and her singing.
"Get it get it, get it get it, whooah
Get it get it, get it get it, whooah (Do you like it)
Get it get it, get it get it, whooah (This feels good)
[Panting]
I really wanna dance, tonight with you (I just can't help myself)
I really wanna do what you want me to (I just feel I let myself go)
I really wanna dance, tonight with you (Wanna see you move)
I really wanna do what you want me to (Uh Uh Uh)"
She stared playfully at a certain wheelchair bound Slytherin, who squirmed
uncomfortably. Then she turned her gaze to Harry who blushed to his roots, while Ron
glared daggers at him. She also made extended eye contact with Seamus, Dean and Oliver
Wood, then gave a winking thumbs up to Neville, who was the only person in the whole
audience not surprised. Ron was sure to grill him later.
"Baby, don't you wanna, dance up on me (I just wanna dance next to you)
To another time and place
Oh Baby, don't you wanna, dance up on me (Are you ready)
Leave behind my name and age(Lets go)
I'm a slave for you (Like That)
I cannot hold it
I cannot control it
I'm a slave for you (It just feels good)
I won't deny it
I'm not trying to hide it (Baby)"
Hermione had now joined Harry and Ron. After recovering from her shock, she stood
up on her chair and made a loud whistle for the youngest Weasley, who strutted across
the stage. Ginny looked in the direction of the whistle and blew a kiss to Hermione who
grinned, knowing that the imagination of all the boys in the audience was now in overdrive.
"Get it get it, get it get it, whooah
Get it get it, get it get it, whooah
Get it get it, get it get it, whooah
[Panting]
Get it get it, get it get it, whooah
Get it get it, get it get it, whooah
Get it get it, get it get it, whooah
[Panting]"
Sweat was beginning to pour down Ginny's body, making her glisten and causing her
hair to slightly curl. Now half the male population of Hogworth's was standing on their
chairs wolf-whistling while MacGonagal threaten to take points. Snape stared at Ginny in
shock, and remembered when Lily Evans danced to Madonna's "Like a Virgin." Dumbledore in
the meantime, looked down at his latest magazine, and didn't seem to notice the commotion
around him.
"I'm a slave for you (Here we go now)
I cannot hold it
I cannot control it
I'm a slave for you (Here we go)
I won't deny it (Yeah Yeah)
I'm not trying to hide it (Yeah)
(Like that)"
The performance ended with a pyro-technic explosion that surround Ginny who now
stood with her left arm out-stretched. Her chest rose and fell heavily, while she looked
around, face flush with triumph. Roses and flowers apparated around her while she bowed
to a thunderous applause. She stifled a giggle when Draco bounced up from his wheelchair
only to yelp in pain and fall. Crabb and Goyle were clapping to much to help their
un-official boss up.
Ginny gave a final wink to Neville and mouthed "Thank you" to the blushing Gryffindor.
She waved jauntily at Ron and Percy who were still trying to get past the barrier, while
Fred and George laughed at them. Then she skipped off stage, giggling to herself.
Just the reaction she was looking for.
****I might just make this a series on Ginny and her thoughts and feeling about growing up
and becoming a woman. Let me know if I should! Thanks! Caligo Arye***
