~Chapter 1~

"Dear Diary,

Do you ever wonder how it would feel to live in a house full of men all except for your mother? Well come trade places with me and you'll know what it feels like. I'm the baby of the family and the only girl at that. It does have some advantages though, being Daddy's favorite and all. But being treated differently by my brothers like a helpless little doll just isn't fair. I hate it. I wish I could just runaway sometimes."

As Ginny Weasly wrote this last thought of her latest diary entry, she started to cry. She was indeed sick of being treated different or "special" in any case because she was the only girl. Her diary was her only safe haven. It was something she could have all of her own, that nobody would ever find or read. It was sealed with magic and only she knew how to get it open.



Growing up with seven older siblings is hard. Especially when they are all men. The only thing she did like about it was the fact that she didn't have to get her brothers' hand-me-downs. At this thought she smiled. Something that would never change.

It wasn't too long ago that Ginny received her acceptance letter to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She knew it was coming because in the back of her mind she could sense it. (I guess you could say it was a psychic power she didn't know she had yet). Anyway, Ginny pretended to be excited as both of her parents made it such a big deal. Like it was the biggest accomplishment of her life, even though she was only 11. 'I only just got into the school,' she thought to herself.



It was a few days before she would be starting when she came down the stairs to an unexpected visitor. Someone whom she hasn't seen in a year and hadn't stopped thinking about since either. It was her brother Ron's best friend. Harry Potter.

A/N: Yes I'm leaving the first chapter at that to keep you wanting more. I'll be updating in a day or so to continue on Ginny's response to Harry's arrival. Please review and tell me what you think.
