Ginny looked down the darkened corridor, sliding in the shadows, cautiously and slowly. She held a minute object in her hands, carrying it gingerly for fear that'd break. She took a step forward and bumped into what seemed to be.invisible air? She screamed as she fell to the ground, the object flying out of her hands and shattering delicately on the ground. She was about to scream again as a figure appeared out of air.Harry.
"Shush Ginny!" Harry said quickly kneeling down beside her.
"H-H-Harry?" Ginny asked bewildered, her face pale.
"I didn't mean to scare you." He said panicky scanning the corridor for any sign of Filch or Mrs. Norris.
"What're you doing here?" She asked looking at his hunched figure, his hair messier then ever.
"I could ask the same about you." Harry pointed out, and picked up a shard of glass, "This yours?" He asked examining it. Ginny gulped and nodded. Harry held it up to a window, where a slab of moonlight slid through. When the moonlight caught the shard, an array of colors swirled in the air. Ginny awed, but Harry took it down immediately. He looked at her apprehensively, and then stood up dusting himself off, and straightening his glasses, holding a hand to her.
Ginny took it, smiling lightly as she smoothed her skirt. "Thanks Harry." She said looking at him, but returned her gaze to the ground.
"Well we'd better get going before Filch comes, or Peeves." He said pulling her close to him, pulling the cloak around the both of them. Ginny held her breath, feeling Harry's body heat next to her made her feel oddly tingly inside. She could feel his breath on the back of her neck, and the front of his body pressed against the back of hers as they walked slowly to the Gryffindor Common Room.
