Chapter One:
Loneliest Girl in the World
Ginny Weasley had changed a lot in her years at Hogwarts. When she had first started she was a little girl, who was manipulated by Tom Riddle. She was naïve and believed every word he had spoken to her. What made her fall for an ugly creature like him was beyond her. She was told constantly that no one would ever love her that she wasn't worth anyone's time; she might as well give up right there and then.
Little Ginny's heart was broken. When Harry Potter had rescued her from Tom Riddle she felt nothing in her body anymore. Through the years of growing up at Hogwarts she had done many things that she would look back on and regret.
Ginny Weasley wasn't so little anymore. When she had come back for her sixth year, Dumbledore had awarder her to move up a year and join the Trio. Everyone had clapped and congratulated her, and Ginny just kept on smiling, a smile that no one could see through.
Year after year she came to Hogwarts, and day after day she played a happy girl for the rest of the world, but if you had ever seen her alone you would see that she was falling apart. For six year straight no one would see through her barrier she had put up, and everything was starting to fall apart.
You are the loneliest girl in
the world
Takin' your hits as they come
You are the loneliest
girl in the world
And tonight you'd fall for anyone
She was beyond return, and she didn't know why it was him who had noticed it all crashing around her.
Ginny was good at what she did, she could lie right through a Truth Potion, because by now lying was second nature to her. When she needed time to herself she would hide in any dark spot she could find. She found the best hiding spots down in the dungeons. Two years ago sleeping through a night was rare for Ginny, sleeping for three hours was about the maximum she got, which left her finishing any homework she had, and once she was done with that she would wonder.
Sleep was hard, because while she slept she felt at total peace, and if she slept anymore, she would have let her life go and die in her sleep.
She had lost a lot of weight during the past year, due to lack of eating. She was slowly shrinking into nothingness.
As everyone sat and ate their welcoming meals Ginny took up most of the time talking so that people wouldn't notice that she had hardly touched her food. "Oh my god Collin, you can't still have that picture you took."
"Oh but Gin dear, I sure do, I think I'll frame it and put it next to my bed." Collin answered as he took a big bite out of his piece of bred.
"Collin…you're girlfriend already hates me please try to make it easier for me here." Ginny answered as she threw a pea at him.
"Ginny she doesn't hate you…she's just insecure, but I mean can you blame her?"
"Blame her for what? Not like I have ever done anything for her to be insecure about."
"Ginny you're a beautiful girl, and when I'm not with her I'm with you, get the picture." Collin questioned.
"Yeah…but we are like brother and sister."
"Would you feel the same if you where dating someone and their best friend was a gorgeous girl?" Collin questioned once more.
"Yeah but no one's interested in me so I don't have to deal with that." She answered and poked her food with her fork a few more times.
"It's not that they aren't interested, it's that you have put up some barrier that no one seems to be able to break, what are you hiding Gin?" Collin question as he tried keep eye contract with his best friend.
Ginny only put her best smile on her face and gave him a little laugh. "Collin you really are a nut job, I'm not hiding anything."
"Alright" Collin returned her smile and continued to dig into his food.
"Baby," Ella Dewar came over and let herself drop into Collins lap.
"I'm going for a quick walk; I'll see you in the common room." Ginny said as she got to her feet and smiled at Ella.
She turned around and took a shaky breath, and hoped to god that no one had seen it, but a pair of quick silver eyes noticed the change in the red-head.
"What's with you tonight?" Blaise questioned Draco.
"What do you mean?" Draco asked looking away from the red-head.
"What is it with all those looks you're throwing that fire ball from Gryffindor, keep it up and Vicky will get jealous." Blaise answered and leaned back around Draco to see the red-head walk out of the Dinning hall, his eyes glanced towards her seat.
"Vicky can suck my—"
"Draco" Snape said behind him, "please make sure that Weasley girl doesn't get out of the castle."
"What! Why me?" Draco started to protest.
"Well considering you are the Head boy, why shouldn't it be you?"
"Thanks a lot Snape." Draco muttered as he lifted himself to his six foot two frame and marched after the youngest Weasley.
"Oh this will be an interesting year Zabini, a bloody interesting year." Before Blaise could question Snape, Snape was already headed towards the front of the Dinning Hall.
Dumbledore rose to his feet. "Dear students, with the war so close, we have made some changes." Dumbledore began and looked around noticing two students missing. "Since you are all full, I believe you wont be able to complain about some of the changes." he continued and looked at his students. "This year, we do not have houses, this year we will mix the houses up."
Shouts of what and how came from each direction. Dumbledore waited for everyone to calm down. "Alright, you will stay with our closest friends due to the new arrangements." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Dumbledore waved his hand and a piece of paper with numbers appeared in front of everyone. Ron, Harry and Hermione all got the number four, Ginny's number was with her, but it also was a four.
"Number ones please head towards the Ravenclaw tower, the Left over Ravenclaw's can show you the way, Number two is Hufflepuff, three is Gryffindor, and four is Slytherin."
"Bloody hell!" Ron yelled.
"Oh Ron come off it, at least we are together."
"But Hermione its Slytherin and I bet Malfoy still got to stay in Slytherin." Ron complained.
Ron and Hermione continued to argue all the way to the Dungeons, and Blaise only shook his head at the though of having to spend every moment with these prats.
Draco entered with Ginny an hour later, and Ron was on her back the second she entered. "Where have you been?"
"Like you give a rat's ass." she hissed at him and headed to the girls dormentries.
"Young lady."
"Oh come off your high hours you bloody baboon," Ginny yelled as she headed up the stairs in a fit of anger. Great now she wouldn't sleep at all tonight.
"What are you smirking at!" Ron hissed at Malfoy.
" At your inability to process what you see."
"What the bloody hell are you talking about now Malfoy."
"You're sister isn't a little girl anymore." Draco winked at him leaving Ron's mind wonder.
"Get back here you prick, you leave my sister alone!" Ron yelled as Draco continued to ignore him and head to his Head Boy room.
"Ron calm down!" Hermione hissed at him as she pulled him back to a sitting position.
"Oh shut up you!" he hissed back at her. Hermione only gave him a dirty look and stalked off.
"Mate what has gotten into you?" Harry asked him.
"Harry, Ginny has changed."
"Yeah well…it's called growing up Ron."
"No, no, that's not what I mean. I mean she has changed, something is off, I found her crying in the gardens the night before you and Hermione came to stay…there was blood."
"What…"
"I don't know Harry…but something's not right."
"Well have you talked to her?"
"No, she saw me and she wiped her tears away and smiled." Ron answered and looked down at his lap.
"You could still talk to her about it."
"I'm sure she's fine, she would tell us if something was wrong."
"Whatever you say Ron," Harry answered and got to his feet, "I'm off to bed."
"Yeah…I'll be up soon." Ron answered as he looked over to the girl's stair case. Harry gave him one last glance and then walked up the stairs to join the rest of the sleeping boys. Ron's eyes where glued to the girls stairs. He was thinking about what Harry had told him, but something kept him from walking up to talk to his sister.
"She's alright, she'd come to me if something was wrong." he told himself and slowly got to his feet and walked up the steps.
Just like that Ginny's problem was forgotten by her brother. Ginny only drifted further into her world of make belief that everything was alright, or that everything would be alright if she could just see that red line blossom from her pale white skin.
Sometimes it wasn't easy to hide her pain, but when times like those came, she would take drugs, that would help her over come whatever obstacle was in front of her.
Ginny was leading a dangerous life, which she couldn't stop without the help of strong arms to catch her when she fell.
