Breathe
Take deep calm breathes, Ginny, breath in breath out. It is no big deal, Ginny thought to herself. Yeah right, whom the heck am I kidding. No big deal my arse. Just breathe deeply. She closed her eyes in concentration, taking in calming deep breaths. She opened her eyes and snuck a peak behind the curtains.
The Great Hall had been decorated in greens, reds, blues and golds for the Welcoming Gala. There seemed to be a million candles floating above the Great Hall, giving it a romantic glow to the occasion. The professors dining area had been turned into an elaborate stage. Roses decorated the stage and a black heavy curtain graced the sides. In the center all the tables had been moved and smaller round tables were put along the walls and the back of the Hall. The center had been left open for dancing.
Oh my god, everyone is here! Ugh. I can't go through with this. I just can't, oh the humiliation, she silently told herself. I'll just slip out and no one will know the difference. And they wouldn't either, Ginny thought bitterly, no one expected Ginny Weasly to get up in front of everyone and sing her heart out. No one knew. It's a plan, I'll just slip out. Ginny started walking backwards towards the side doors when all of a sudden.
"Oh no you don't, Ginny, If I have to do this, then so do you. I am not going to sing up there by myself, let me tell you. We both worked our buts off this month so we could do this and you are not going to ruin it." Pansy hissed at her.
Ginny's eyes widened innocently, "Pansy I wasn't."
"Oh yes you were" Pansy said.
"Have you seen how packed it is? What if I mess up? What if they don't like how I sing? What if."
"Ridiculous and you know it. We are going to knock them dead. Just you wait and see, Gin"
Just then, Professor Nightingale came up to them, 'Ginny, you are on in 10 minutes, and I want you in your position by then," she walked off hurriedly.
"Pansy, how do I look?" She asked her.
"You are going to knock em dead in that dress, Gin"
She looked down at her dress. It was a rich green colored dress. It was a strapless dress and it clung to her curves provocatively. Halfway down her thighs the dress flared out and left trailed to the floor. It front had was in a v shape and didn't reveal a lot but it did reveal some. It had a bare back, but it was criss crossed and tied mid-back. She had left her fiery hair down so that it fell around her shoulders. She had on little make-up, because according do Pansy, she didn't need that much make-up to knock guys dead on the ground. Yes, today she had pulled all the strings and pampered herself to look beautiful. She needed and deserved it. So, why don't I have a boyfriend yet she asked herself silently.
"Not if you off them first Pansy"
Miraculously over the summer, Pansy had lost a ton of weight and now she was slim and had a body many girls died for. She wore a tight fitting strapless red dress that flared around her ankles. Her raven colored hair was pulled up in a bun, with cascading curls framing her face and landing softly on her shoulders. Her blue eyes shone brightly with excitement.
"Ginny get on the stage now you are on in three minutes" and with that Professor Nightingale pushed her on stage.
Thank Merlin no one can see me yet. She was hidden by the shadows. Supposedly, when the music started fireflies were supposed to dance above her as a spotlight. Taking a deep calming breath, Ginny began searching for him. No one had noticed her yet and she was very glad. She searched the couples on the floor and the tables and he wasn't there. Her pulse quickened and she began to worry what if he didn't come? What if he had lied to her? She searched again straining her eyes but there was still no sign of him. Ginny began walking backwards wanting to run and hide. No, I am a Weasley and Weasleys' don't run. Ginny stayed put and turned to Pansy, "He isn't here . . . he didn't come" She whispered brokenly.
Pansy eyes filled with sympathy, " If he said he would be here than he would. He always keeps his promises."
"Not to me he doesn't" Ginny said with tears in her eyes. Her heart was being broken in two. He had promised he would be here. What did you expect Ginny? You are nothing but a muggle loving poor Weasley. He has no reason to keep his promise to you. Ron was right all along. I was a complete fool.
Th first strands of the piano began flying in the air. With a deep breath she began.
I can feel the magic floating in the air Being with you gets me that way I watch the sunlight dance across your face, love Never been this swept away All my thoughts just seem to settle on the breeze When I'm lying wrapped up in your arms The whole world just fades away The only thing I hear is the beating of your heart
A flash of silver in the back shadows caught her eyes and she stopped, struck speechless. The music returned to her cue and her voice flowed out full of emotion.
And I can feel you breathe its washing over me And suddenly I'm melting into you There's nothing left to prove Baby all we need is just to be Caught up in the touch this slow unsteady rush Baby ain't that the way love's supposed to be I can feel you breath
Just breathe
Her eyes caught with his in a duel of emotions. His piercing molten silver eyes raging with deep emotions. Love, pain and sadness???
In a way I know my heart is waking up As all the walls come tumbling down Closer than I've ever felt before And I know you know there's no need for words right now
Mahogany danced with molten silver neither wanting to look away. Their souls laid bare for each to see. Nothing was hidden. They had found and lost themselves in each other.
And I can feel you breathe washing over me And suddenly I'm melting into you There is nothing left to prove Baby all we need is just to be Caught up in the touch slow unsteady rush Baby ain't that the way love's supposed to be I can feel you breath
Just breathe
Caught up in the touch this slow unsteady rush Baby ain't that the way that love's supposed to be I can feel you breath
I can feel the magic floating in the air Being with you gets me that way
Thunderous applause filled the air making Ginny break her eye contact. But a sincere and loved filled smile graced his handsome face. Ginny's heart swelled with happiness. She looked around the room and bowed low. The fireflies slowly dimmed the music and she slipped behind the curtain.
What just happened? She asked herself, a thousand questions and emotions swirling in her head and heart.
Suddenly she was grabbed and . . .
This is my first fic so please be nice.. Read and Review and I will update my next chapter soon. Thank you
