A/N: I revamped the Harry and Ginny series. Read below please!
A/N - READ: Chapters 1 – 5 are the same as they were before I combined the series. Chapters 6 – 8 are new! I just thought it would be easier if I did it this way instead of always having to start a New Story every time I want to update the Harry and Ginny series.
Movie Fic.
oOo
Short moments before, during and after Harry and Ginny date. Not sure how far this is going to go...but "What would come would come..." – Thank you Hagrid!

Chapter 1: She has a boyfriend
Hermione had just run off to hide, McLaggen still hot on her heels and Harry was in no mood to stand and talk to Sanguini with Luna. Turning away from Luna and Sanguini Harry spotted Ginny by the refreshments table. She was clearly enjoying Slughorn's Christmas Party as much as he was. Seeing that Luna didn't need him he made his way over to Ginny.
"Hey Ginny." Harry said quietly
"Hey." Ginny replied, looking up from her glass.
"You look stunning." Harry said before he could stop himself.
"Thanks." She giggled, looking down at her blue dress, her face going red.
"Where's Dean?" he asked. He was interested to know why she'd come alone, not that he minded, the less time she spent with Dean the happier he was.
"In the common room I supposed." Ginny replied; she looked a little upset about this.
"You didn't invite him?"
"Of course I did!" answered Ginny, shocked that Harry would think that she didn't invite her own boyfriend to the party.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to pry."? He was starting to feel really stupid and wished he hasn't brought up the subject at all.
"It's ok. We had a fight earlier and when I asked him if he still wanted to come he said that at the moment he's not interested in being around me in private let alone in public." For a moment after she'd said this Ginny thought she might cry.
Harry stood there, furious that anyone would say that to her. "I'm sorry Gin." He said before taking her soft, warm hands and pulling her into a tight hug. He felt her hug back just as tightly, causing the beast inside him to purr. Harry couldn't help but take in some of that flowery scent she possessed; it was intoxicating, just like it was when he was near Amortentia.
Hermione was watching from several metres away and when she caught Harry's eye she gave him a get-your-hands-off-of-her look. Harry stepped back hastily, avoiding Ginny's eyes.
"Hermione's calling me." He lied "I'll see you later."
"Okay." She replied as Harry walked off.
He had to dodge several people before he reached Hermione.
"What are you doing?" she hissed
"Comforting her."
"Why?"
"She was upset." Harry replied as if it was the most obvious thing in the world
"Harry, you can't just go hugging her whenever you want! She has a boyfriend." She put huge emphasis on the last word
"Who is a jerk and isn't even here!" Harry snapped
"That's beside the point." Hermione snapped back
"Is it?" Harry asked
Hermione just glared at him. "I have to go; McLaggen is coming for me again."
Harry watched Hermione speed off and when he turned around it was to see Ginny leaving the party. He sighed, slightly crestfallen and went to find Luna.
