Harry & Ginny's First Kiss

Ginny's POV

29th August

Well, today was… interesting. Definitely in a good way, though. Okay, I can't hold it any longer, so I'll just say it: I kissed Harry Potter today. Yes, the one person I've been lusting after since the very first time I heard his name! Harry Potter… I kissed HARRY…

We had just won the Quidditch game. I replaced Harry as seeker for this game, since he was in detention with Snape (which is totally slack, in my opinion).

The game was amazing. We played really well as a team, and kept in mind that we were not only doing this for Gryffindor and ourselves, but also for Harry, our fave captain and seeker! Ron had played exceptionally well; we were all really proud of him!! My big bro is growing up… haha.

So after the game, we rushed to the common room to go and celebrate! There was heaps of Butterbeer to go around. Gred & Forge had gone with their mate Lee Jordan to get heaps of bottles of it, instead of the slightly dirty glass mugs we usually had inside the Three Broomsticks.

Well anyway, I was in the common room with my friends, chugging down Butterbeer while I waited for Harry. Soon enough, he came into view, through the portrait hole. We all cheered as he came in, so he knew that we had won…

And then it happened. His eyes found mine. I couldn't keep my eyes off him after that initial gaze. The lust, the passion… all symbolised in our eyes…

I ran towards him and we kissed each other… the kiss that I had been waiting for all these years. And well, what can I say, besides the fact that it was worth it?! No offence to Dean and Michael, but Harry kisses waaay better. Even though he's only ever kissed one other girl – Cho Chang.

I guess the kiss was so magical because we really liked each other… we both wanted that kiss so badly. Harry's been the one for me all along. It's harsh that we took so long to admit it to each other. I mean, I know Harry definitely hasn't liked me as long as I've lusted after him, but still… I never really made my move. I was always too shy.

I'm not sure how long the kiss lasted, but it felt like ages. It was the most beautiful moment of my life. My arms around him, his arms around me. The protection, the comfort and the happiness I felt was priceless. It's the sorta thing you can't really explain – it's just so beautiful, so wonderful, so perfect it makes you wanna cry.

I guess this kiss has made me soft. Well, at least for the time being. I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm not like this huge, tough person. But, I dunno, Harry has changed me a bit. For the better.

I'm not sure about how Harry felt about the kiss, but I hope he enjoyed it and wanted it just as much as I did.

I don't know what else to say, except that:

Oh my gosh, I'm in LOVE.

No, not that fake love that I had with Michael and Dean. Real love. True love. It's not lust anymore. It's real, and even though I'm sooo ridiculously excited, I am also scared to death. But, being the brave little girl I am, I'll go along with it 

And you know what? I'm happy. I'm really happy. For once, everything is going right. My feet are firmly planted on the ground. Well, besides the times I'm with Harry. Then I'm just floating in mid-air. But I know who I am now. I'm not this little girl anymore. Hopefully, I'm Harry's girlfriend. I'm over the kinda relationships I had with Dean & Michael. They weren't real, coz I still liked Harry when I was going out with them. I know this time it's genuine, and I'm happy.

I just hope it lasts…

Ginny .
