WINTER'S MOOD
Part 1 : Ginny's Anger
It was winter again in Hogwarts. Everyone could smell the snow coming. But nobody knows when it would finally turn the gardens white. Several students already prepared themselves to leave the school. To buy christmas presents, a lot of them were trying to convice their teachers to go to Hogsmeade. What they didn't know is that Albus Dumbledore has been secretly organized a special day and it won't be long before he'd make the announcement. He just knew that waiting to the last moment will increase his students excitment.
Two days before the start of the holidays, all the students, teachers and ghosts were sitting in the Great Hall of Hogwarts, waiting to Dumbledore giving the signal to begin to eat. Laughs and screams among the tables of the four houses vanished when Dumbledore entered the room.
He began : " As you know, in two days, Hogwarts will be nearly empty. Almost all of you will have a great meal with their family. And to thank your family for filling your heart with love and joy, I'm sure you want them to have beautiful presents. .."
Everyone was looking and smiling at him.
Ron whispered to Harry's ear : " He's gonna allow us to go to Hogsmeade. I knew it. "
Hermione hushed him with one of her hand on his mouth. He stammered between her fingers : " What you think you're doing, you gi… "
" Shut your mouth ! " Hermione said, taking off her hand.
" That's why I decided " Dumbledore continued " to take you to London tomorrow ! ".
Surprised screams came from the audience. It was sure what students didn't expect.
Dumbledore shouted " Well, let's eat for now ! ! " And food appeared on tables. Soon, everybody ate and talked to their tables.
Ron finally started to talk " Ok, that's not what I wanted but it can be fun ".
" Of course, we will have f…. " began Harry.
" Oh, come on, I always did gifts made by muggles for my parents, and since I'm in Hogwarts, I have always found something new at Hogsmeade. " Hermione complained.
But Harry and Ron were already talking about their trip in London. So Hermione turned to Ginny who was concentrated on her plate.
" So, Ginny which present will you give to Harry this year ? " Hermione asked.
Ginny raised her head. " Hermione, I don't really have mon… "
" Hermione, why don't you leave her alone ? " Ron asked, trying to defend his little sister.
" You could let me answer, Ron ! " Ginny said with a new tone, nobody has ever heard before.
" Oh, well, I'm sorry, Ginny, " Ron continued with a sarcastic voice. " I didn't know you were so chatty. "
" Well, escuse me, but I'm not ten anymore, I'd talk if I want to talk, I don't need your permission anymore. And probably I had never needed it ! " Ginny shouted as many of the table looked at her. It was extremely rare to see the little Ginny expressed herself.
" Ginny, please, everybody is staring at us ! " Hermione whispered.
" They do as they please, I don't really care of them " Ginny whispered too to Hermione. " And, for you knowledge, I don't have enough money to make a gift to my own mother, so I think Harry will understand if I will forget him for once. Won't you, Harry ? " Ginny stared at him, waiting for an answer.
Harry rolled his eyes. He was so surprised that Ginny spoke to him without blushing, that he hardly answered a weak : " Of course, I will ".
" I've finished, if you'll escuse me. " Ginny stood up from her chair and headed for the Gryffindor corridor.
Everyone at the Gryffindor table was astonished by the argument who has just happened.
" See, what you've done ! " Ron said angrily to Hermione. And he left the table.
" I didn't do anything ! " Hermione said to Ron's back. " It's Harry's fault ! " And she also left the table.
" What did I do ? " Harry said without noticing he was the only one left at the end of the table.
