To Sleep, Perchance To Dream
"No, no, not Harry....Ron, Hermione....Help! He's killing Harry!"
Harry woke up. there were screams coming from the girl's dormitories. He stepped out of bed, hastily pulling on pants. Rushing out of his dorm room, he started up the staircase to the dormitories, following the screaming.
"Harry, Harry, no, not Harry, please...." Harry hesitated at the door, looking around him. Was anyone watching? The screams were getting more intense, so he pushed open the door.
Ginny was rolling around her bed, wrestling with some unseen force. Harry rushed over to her and shook her awake.
When Ginny sat up, tears were streaming down her face. "Where is he... is he dead...no not him... I love him... I never got to tell him... You-know-who... green light...where is he?" She was mumbling things over and over again.
"Ginny, its okay. It was only a dream. Voldemort's not here. It's okay." Harry said.
When she continued to cry, not really aware of who was talking, Harry started to cradle her against his chest.
"Ginny, Ginny, its okay. sshh... You're fine." Harry said, rocking her back and forth. "No, not me. Harry, Harry Potter. You-know-who killed him." Harry continued to rock her, stroking her flaming red hair, trying to comfort her.
Suddenly, Ginny's tear-streaked face snapped up, and her eyes found Harry's. she looked ashamed.
"Go away Harry...I thought you were Ron...Go away, I'm fine."
"You don't look fine," Harry said, lifting her head up with a finger.
He started to push Ginny's hair out of her eyes, smiling, but then he stopped. What was he doing? this was just Ginny, just Ron's little sister. But then why did it feel so wonderful when he had held her against his chest?... Why was he suddenly craving to bend his head, to brush his lips on hers?
He looked around, trying to find something , anything, to say. His eyes strayed to the other 4-poster beds around Ginny's. They were all empty. the sudden realization hit that he and Ginny were alone in the dorm. It was Christmas vacation. Hardly anyone had stayed at Hogwarts this year; they all wanted to be far away from anyplace Voldemort might target next. As Harry was thinking this, Ginny's voice pushed into his mind, blocking out all other thought.
"Harry ,please.. just go," she said, starting to cry again, "You don't have to stay and help Ron's baby sister," she said scathingly.
"Ginny , I don't think of you like that... I mean you're more than just Ron's little sister...You mean alot to me....Its just that, well...." Harry said awkwardly, not sure how to say what he felt.
"Don't be nice to me just because you pity me! I need someone to see me for who I am, not fell sorry for me," she shouted at him. "Oh, yes everybody give the Weasleys their pity, The Weasleys are poor so let's all be nice to them. But then, who really cares about the Weasleys anyway....Harry will you just go awa..."
Suddenly, Ginny stopped shouting. Harry was bending forward, his arm reaching out. In the same instant, he put his hand on her cheek, and his lips touched hers.
'This can't be happening,' Ginny thought, not really sure that she wasn't still dreaming, but no, it was real! Harry Potter was kissing her!... Hesitantly at first, but his lips were gaining confidence. He put another hand on her cheek, drawing her into him. Then he broke away, brushing the hair off of her face.
"Harry... What?... What are you doing?" Ginny said breathlessly.
"I don't know, but I liked it, " he said. Then he started kissing her again, more firmly than before. Ginny melted into his arms, surrendering completely.
Neither of them heard the call from out side: "Ginny....are you okay?.... Ginny?" The dormitory door opened, and Ron stepped in, clad in the pajamas Percy had given him.
"HARRY! Get AWAY from my sister! What the hell do you think you're doing?!?" Ron screamed, storming over to them and pushing Harry away. His face was turning red, like it always did when he was mad. Ginny took one frightened look between them, and ran out of the room, down the staircase.
"What the hell do you think you're doing?!?" Ron screamed again.
"Why do you care? Is it any of your business?" Harry asked, livid.
Ron opened his mouth furiously, but before he could say anything, Harry spoke again, "Besides, I think you could tell what I was doing. I was kissing Ginny. Her brothers never pay her any attention, so I thought someone should." He said, hoping his retaliation had stung. He was watching Ron with satisfaction. Ron clenched his fists for a second, than punched Harry in the stomach.
Harry felt the breath forced out of his lungs in a great rush. He coughed, and it was then that Ron started pummeling every part of Harry's body that he could find. They both fell to the floor, Ron still punching. It was only Harry's quidditch training that saved him from being completely beaten. He rolled free from Ron and stood up. His only thought was to stop fighting, but he found himself continuing, taking out his revenge. "Why did you have to come in? She'll never face me again. You embarrassed her too much! Why did you have to come in? DAMN YOU!!!" He said, emphasizing each word with a punch. Ron wasn't done yet, though. Somehow he got up and put Harry in a headlock, still punching with his free arm. Neither Harry or Ron were going to give up , and each were giving as good as they got.
It was then that Hermione came in. "STOP IT YOU TWO!" she yelled, pulling them apart. to Harry's surprise, Ron stopped, looking at Hermione.
"Ginny's in the common room. She told me to come and stop you two fighting. What is this about?"
"Nothing," said Ron, starting to walk towards the door. "I'm going to talk to her."
"Oh no you're not," Harry said , pushing Ron deeper into the room, " I am."
Ron was about to follow him out of the room when Hermione said, "Come on Ron, what's wrong?" Ron turned to look at her.
A/N- well, there is the first chap. Like it? Hate It? either way- review! PLZ! (* gives puppy dog eyes*) I will post next Chap. when I have 2 reviews. ( I'm desperate.)
Preview Of Next Chap- *Harry stood there, staring at her. "It wasn't like that. How could a kiss have felt that good if..." SLAP! Ginny swung her hand out of nowhere, hitting him on the cheek. "Is that all you care about? What feels good? How COULD You?!? You've ignored me for five years, then suddenly you kiss me? What were you doing?" she went on & on screaming at him until Harry couldn't stop himself..........*
