(A/N: Hey guys, this is my first Harry Potter fan fiction. I'm hoping you like it so give me feedback. Tell me if it sucks or if you love it. I want to know if I should continue. It starts off with Ginny but it will turn into a HP/SS slash. I wanted to start it off with Ginny because it will eventually explain some things with Snape and Harry's relationship. Enjoy)
Ginny Weasley was having an amazing day. She didn't have potions today, which was always a great thing and she didn't have to practice with the rest of the quidditch team tonight. Only seventh-years had the privilege of practicing after hours on a school night, and since Harry has been missing many practices due to detentions and "remedial potions" with Professor Snape, the seventh years needed all the practice they could get. To top that off, Hermione Granger had offered to help her write her potion's essay tonight! To anyone else that would mean nothing, but to Ginny that meant the world. Ever since last summer when they had stayed at Grimmauld Place, Ginny had been having strange reoccurring dreams about Hermione. At first she just shrugged it off saying they spent a lot of time together, but when Ginny started feeling attracted to Hermione in real life, she didn't know what to do. Instead of talking to someone about it, she decided to keep a diary just of what she was feeling. This diary never left her, ever. Ginny was glad they were all crowded in the great hall when Hermione offered to help her so she could blame her now bright-red blush on the heat. "Meet me in my room after dinner Gin." Hermione told her as she rushed off to Ancient Runes.
Ginny walked slowly to her study hall period, praying that Lupin would be the teacher supervising. To her horror, she walked in on a scowling Professor Snape. "20 points from Gryffindor for Miss Weasley's inability to show up to class on time. One would think with brothers like yours, you would learn to behave!" Ginny's face burned from humiliation as she took a seat next to Luna Lovegood. "You shouldn't listen to him. I think your whole family is just lovely." Luna said in a whisper. Ginny gave her a smile and opened her transfiguration notebook. Her assignment was due tomorrow, yet her hands were itching to take out her diary and record her newest thoughts and feelings. Quickly looking around the room to see where Professor Snape was, she took it out and opened to a new page. Writing about Hermione always put her in a trance so she didn't realize that Professor Snape had walked over to her table and was now peering over her shoulder. "10 points from Gryffindor for not doing homework, and detention tonight with me Miss Weasley." Ginny's head snapped up as she realized what he had just said. 'No,no,no!' her mind screamed. "I'm sorry Professor Snape, please I can't have detention tonight!" she pleaded to the now angry potions master. "Another 10 points from Gryffindor for wasting my time. Now everyone get back to work and I will see you tonight Miss Weasley after dinner in my office. Also, I will be confiscating this since you seem to be unable to concentrate on your work." Tears began to build in Ginny's eyes as she watched him snap her diary shut and slip it into his robes. 'This is bad, real bad.' Her mind thought as she tried to wipe her eyes the best she could.
Thankfully the class was now over, and she didn't have any more after that. She ran to her room and jumped onto her bed, pulling the curtains closed. Then she took out her wand and erected a silencing charm around her. After she made sure the silencing charm was secure, she slammed her head down and cried into her pillow. "Why me? Merlin, why me?" She screamed, slamming her fists into her mattress. Just when she thought something good between her and Hermione was finally going to happen, Professor Snape has to go and fuck it all up. "I hate him, I hate him, I hate him!" She whispered, voice too hoarse from screaming. Her eyes shut and she slowly let sleep take over her, making sure her alarm woke her up for dinner.
