"Our little secret"
Three magical words
that were
m~u~s~i~c
to young Ginny's ear
In a family of Quidditch
enthusiasts,
it was only natural
that she so strongly
desired
to fly
to kick
to throw
to catch
just as her brothers could
But
she was the precious
"PRINCESS"
she never asked to be
She would've much rather been the
p.a.g.e – b.o.y
with dirt smudged on her cheek
So making this one friend in her first year
(forget all the hell that happened, just forget it)
was more than she could
a s k for
& Alicia was happy to
o-b-l-i-g-e
Angelina thought Ginny was funny
(aw, she wants to be like her brothers)
Katie thought Ginny was young
(these are big wizards'—& witches'—games)
Alicia
saw
how earnest Ginny was
(I feel the same way about it!)
And though the (only) Weasley daughter had
t;a;l;e;n;t
where the Spinnet girl had
experience
Alicia took that raw power & molded it into a
SUPERNOVA
Ginny would no longer be
the r_o_o_k_i_e
but Ali wouldn't be there
much longer
So Gin made a wager—
If…If she let these morethanteammates feelings flourish
& this S_E_C_R_E_T grow…
then maybe Alicia wouldn't be gone as fast as they first thought

Sweet. Very sweet. I think Alicia is underrated. It's always either Ange or Kat, but Ali gets little face time. Well, I like her. And I hope you felt that way, too, through this FV.
Thanks for reading, and please review!

2017 note: I'm still fond of Alicia and still insist she's underappreciated…though I think there's some murkiness in the timeline here… Essentially, Ginny looked up to Alicia and started to develop a crush just as Alicia left Hogwarts. A shame they didn't have the chance to be teammates as anything more than just in spirit. :')
