Hello. I am HannahKayJackson and I love you for clicking on this story. I hope you like it...and I also hope you review and make me happy.

PS: This is for lily-rhiannon's Romance Pairing Challenge. I choose three numbers and she gave me a pairing and a quote to use. This is only chapter one. I expect maybe five chapters... anyway she gave me Ginny and Viktor (a pairing I never would have expected by the way) and I came up with this idea. I'm not going to give you the quote yet... it'll be in the last chapter, I promise:) enjoy.

"Ginny Weasley?" Viktor Krum said from a few feet away. He was dressed in your normal dress robes, with dark eyes. I nodded at him. "Don you know why I am here, Ginny Weasley?"

"Fleur invited you?" I asked him mildly.

He laughed at me. "Well, yes. Fleur did invite me, but I am also here to offer you a deal."

"A deal? What sort of deal?"

"We have been watching you, Ginny Weasley."

"Who is 'we?'?" I asked, although upon closer consideration I should have been concerned that anyone was watching me.

"Ginny Weasley, we, the Bulgarian National Quidditch team, have been watching you. You see our chaser is retiring next year and we need a new one. We need a good chaser, so we've been watching you. We want you to come and play for us after you finish Hogwarts."

I felt the blood drain from my face. "You want me on the Bulgarian National Quidditch team?" I repeated, my heart racing.

He nodded, smiling at my expression. "Yes. So, here's my number. Talk this over with your family and then call me…or write me. We'll set up the details." He said, winking at me and slipping a piece of paper in my hands before turning away. "Goodbye for now, Ginny Weasley."

I stood there for a moment unable to breath and then I bolted to find mum or dad or Harry or Hermione or even Ron. I had to find someone. I stumbled into Hermione and beamed at her. "Hermione!" I half screamed at her.

She tenderly at me. "What is it Ginny?"

"I just talked to Viktor Krum. The Bulgarians want me to be their new chaser." I told her, but the words slurred together to fast.

"Oh my gosh, Ginny. That's great." She hugged me tightly. "That's spectacular."

The room went silent then. A bright, silvery light streaked across the room. "A patronus…" People whispered, shifting nervously.

"THE MINISTRY HAS FALLEN!" The booming voice yelled and nervous gasps engulfed the room. "THEY ARE COMING."

It disappeared and everyone started screaming, Hermione was heaved away from me… I can't remember what happened after that. Everything went black.

*GV*

I woke up on a couch. "Ginny? Are you alright?" Mum was asking, touching my face.

I sat up, looking at her. "Mum, where are we?"

"A hide out for now dear. How are you feeling?"

I looked around and saw my whole family, minus my brother (and by extension Harry and Hermione). "Fine, mum, where's Harry, Ron, and Hermione?" My voice was panicky.

Dad stood up, taking mum's shoulders in his arms. "They disavaporated on the spot. We don't know where they went or how to reach them."

"Ginny, dear, what's this?" She held up the piece of paper Viktor Krum had given me.

I smiled weakly. "Before the patronus came, Viktor Krum came over to me. He told me that the Bulgarians wanted me to come be their chaser next year." I told them with a sigh.

Mum's eyes went wide. "Oh my, Ginny. That's exiting."

"It is. I've always wanted to play professional Quidditch, but I didn't think…" I mumbled, smiling under my breath.

"You didn't think you were good enough?" Dad chimed in. He smiled at me. "You must have been wrong, Ginny." His smile was funny. It was a goofy look of happiness in dark times.

"This is big, Ginny." George said from beside her.

"I know." I whispered, feeling tears well up in my eyes for no good reason.

*GV*

The start of the school year same with a fight, my mom didn't want me to go back to school, but I wouldn't hear it. I wasn't going to not go to Hogwarts. I didn't care if Snape was the headmaster.

So when I boarded the Hogwarts express today, I was alone for the first time. No big brothers to watch out for me. I quickly found Neville and Luna sitting in an empty compartment.

"Hi, Ginny." Luna said when I came in and sat down beside her.

"Hi Luna, Neville. Did you two have a hard time getting here?" I asked them quietly, staring out the window.

"Yes. My grams didn't want me to come, but I told her I had to. She eventually wore down." Neville told me, eyes serious.

"My dad was fine with it." Luna told us dreamily.

"Oh, well, my mum didn't' want me to come… so here I am." I said, smiling. "Can I tell you something?" Neville nodded and Luna smiled at me. "At Bill's wedding Viktor Krum came up to me and told me that the Bulgarians have been 'looking for me'. Then he told me that they wanted me to come to Bulgaria and play for their Quidditch team when I finish school."

Neville smiled. "That's really neat… but what about Harry?"

My heart ached at the sound of Harry's name. "I haven't seen him since I talked to Viktor. You might've heart what happened at the wedding… " Neville nodded at me. "We're guessing that Harry, Ron, and Hermione left to look for the Horcuxeses. We haven't heard from them and we don't know how to contact them. I'm guessing I won't be able to talk to Harry until this war is over. I just don't think I can wait that long. I have to write Krum and tell him my answer soon."

Neville nodded. "Yes. I think you should do it Ginny. You would love being a professional Quidditch player and you can come back to Harry eventually."

I nodded sadly. "I think I'm going to do it. My whole family thinks so… well not Ron, but everyone else does. I have wanted this since I was a little girl."
