Chapter 1
Ginny Wait!
***
"Ginny wait!" called Harry as he catches a glimpse of fiery red hair flowing behind her. "Look out!" he screams as she runs past the Whomping Willow's blows.
***
Harry sits up with a gasp of air. His pajamas are soaked with sweat. He looks over at the four-poster bed next to him. Ron had kicked the covers off and was laying spread out on his bed snoring loudly. Well at least I didn't wake anyone Harry thought as he got out of bed and climbed out of his pajamas and into his clothes.
It was Saturday and another unbelievably hot day. There would not be class today and everyone would sleep in.
That was the fourth time this week he had had that dream about Ginny. Every time he would be following her and she would run down to the Whomping Willow. Just when she was about to be hit he would wake up. Harry had no idea why he kept having these dreams about his best friends sister. He was dieing to tell someone about them but who?
Ron was defiantly out of the question, even though he was his best friend he would still freak out and herd Ginny away from him for weeks. Hermione would tell him to quit worrying about dreams and start studying. Harry even thought about asking Dumbledore but he was too busy and Harry didn't know the new password to his office. There was one person that he could talk to and that was the one he least wanted to ask. Trelaney.
Harry made his way down to the common room. As he reached the last step he was to busy thinking and missed the last stair coming down hard on his leg.
"Shit!" Harry cussed
"Are you alright?" Ginny hurried over to him and grabbed his arm.
"Yah I'm fine I just wasn't paying attention." He muttered
"You weren't paying attention." Ginny grinned, "I wonder what could have made the great Harry Potter not pay attention enough to make him fall down stairs."
Harry could feel his face and neck growing warm. What was wrong with him, he had never felt this embarrassed before. What was wrong with her! Was this that little red haired girl who was too shy to look him in the eyes? Harry now realized that, that was no little girl standing by him.
"What are you doing up so early?" Harry asked as he turned away to hide his face from her.
"Oh" she walked back over to the table she had been sitting at. "I had a headache last night so I went to bed early." "So what's your excuse?"
"I just couldn't sleep so I was going to go for a walk." He had wanted to go up to Trelaneys classroom to see what she made of his dreams.
"Oh… um do you mind if I tag along?" she had started to pick up her stuff and realized that the book she had been reading was still on the table. She grabbed it and shoved it into her bag.
"Its pretty early to go for a walk we might get caught." Harry had seen a magazine that Ginny had put into her bag that said 'how to get that guy to notice you'. He also saw a glimpse of the book she had shoved into her bag. It had said Harlequin romance and had a man holding a half naked woman in his arms.
"Well?" Ginny turned around and put her hands on her hips, "you were going out anyway." "Unless you don't want me to go." She had tilted her head looked at him pleadingly. Ginny saw Harry swallow hard and look down, she grinned inwardly.
"No… no, I just didn't want you to get in trouble." harry said quickly.
"Good!" Ginny said cheerfully grabbing his hand and pulled him out of the common room.
