Ginny was looking at his picture again, she didn't know why, but she
loved him. It had grown past the hero-worship she had in her earlier years
in Hogwarts, because she didn't know him then she knew him as Harry Potter-The
Boy Who Lived, now she saw what Ron and Hermione did, just plain Harry.
She couldn't love him before, not at all, who can love someone they didn't
know. She had to find a way to tell him. But what she really wanted was
to be famous like him and not just a Weasley. She had tried, but that just
resulted in setting loose a giant snake and almost killing students, the
diary had promised her fame and fortune.
I wanted to be like you
I wanted everything
So I tried to be like you
And I got swept away
She was torn from her thoughts when Leslie, her best friend besides Colin, snatched her up by the arm and dragged her out into the common room to help with her (Leslie's) homework. Ginny sat down across from Harry by the fire, she could only notice the look of pain on his face, he was thinking about Cedric. She excused herself from her friends, walk over and sat down next to him.
"Harry, will you come take a walk with me, the lake's beautiful this
time of day?"She was trying to shake him out of his thoughts. "Sure," She
thought she heard a glimmer of excitement in his voice. "Let me go get
my cloak and I'll meet you back here." Ginny waited patiently as he walked
up the boys staircase and emerged back down a moment later. They walked
out of the common room, through the corridors, down a few flights of stairs
and they stepped out onto the Hogwarts's grounds. Unconsciously, she took
his hand and explained to him that Cedric's death was not his fault and
that she wasn't the only one who thought that way. At her statement he
seemed considerably more cheerful. She also noticed that they were still
holding hands but didn't let go. They continued to talk about nothing in
particular while watching the sunset reflected in the glassy surface of
the lake.
I didn't know that it was so cold
And you needed someone
to show you the way
So I took your hand and we figured out
That when the tide comes
I'd take you away
He explained how he was getting lonely because since Ron and Hermione
stopped being stubborn and started dating they spent all their time together
and he felt like a third wheel. "Well, I'm glad they're spending time together
and not fighting as much but I just wish they wouldn't ignore all the time.
Wait, I just realized that I've known you 4 years and I still have yet
to get to know you, maybe we should start hanging out sometimes, like we
could just talk and maybe we could together on Hogsmeade and hang with
the lovebirds. I really do want to get to know all the Weasley's." "Yeah
Harry, I think that would fun, I don't want you to be lonely and maybe
you could help me in DADA I'm still having trouble with it after all this
time." " Of course I would help you out, but only if you could help me
in potions. I've been hearing that even Snape can't criticize you." That
made Ginny giggle. "Sure."
If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
was somebody who cares
They were walking around they edge of the lake when Ginny suddenly tripped
on a rock and fell in, Harry grabbed her hand but she slipped and sank
deeper underneath the surface. Harry, not thinking of anything else, ripped
of his cloak and dived in after her. Finally, he found her hand and pulled
her out of the water and onto the bank. He then remembered the drying charm
they had learned earlier in the week and dried off her clothes forgetting
his own in the process and wrapped his cloak around her so she would stop
shivering.
I'm sinking slowly
So hurry hold me
Your hand is all I have to keep me hanging on
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone
"Harry?" "Gin, you'll be alright I'll take you up to Madam Pomphrey
and she'll ...." "Harry, I just wanted to say that....I...I love you."
And before he could respond, she kissed him full on the lips.
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone
