Summary- Ginny and Harry were meant to be together. Ginny knew that. But how do you show a boy you're his true love when he just can't fall for you? Set in Harry's 5th year, Cho and Harry are kissing. There might be a change to the Harry Potter story line. Just warning you.
I felt myself stagger back slightly and nearly tripped over. Tears were now blinding my eyesight. I gasped and forced my mouth shut to stop myself shrieking. Tears were streaking down my face and I felt my heart seem to shatter like a glass slipper. I fell to my knees and the tears slipped to the floor. I felt my whole body become heavier so I couldn't get back up. I started to feel my throat clog and I felt as if I was choking. I struggled to my feet and turned quickly and ran away from that room. I ended up not making it past the first girls bathroom I saw. I fell to the floor once more and it seemed to me that I was sobbing my own heart out. Like the shatterings were slipping through my tears and soon I'd have no heart left, as much as I said I didn't love him still it would never become true no matter how many boys I dated. I heard another voice and I managed to wipe my eyes and get up. I might be halfway presentable.
"Hello?" I called as I ran a hair through my tear stressed hair.
"Hello." The voice called back dreamily. Luna. She popped out from behind the cubical stalls and smiled as she rested her head on her shoulder.
"Luna." I sighed truely happy it was her.
"What's wrong Ginny?" She asked. She stepped closer to me and hugged me.
"Harry and Cho were kissing." I felt the tears start up again and rubbed my eyes.
"Oh. I always found that Harry would be much happier with you. I had a dream about it you know." She said and started to gaze at me in a funny way.
"Well..." I didn't know what else to say so I didn't say anything else.
"I'll walk you back to the dorms. I like walking around the castle." Luna skipped into one of the cubicals and I heard humming. I then decided to splash my face and after making myself up to a standard where you might not tell I was just crying. Luna came out and washed her hands before we both exited the bathroom. We ended up banging into Cho and Harry looking at each other lovingly. I looked to my feet and Luna grinned at the two.
"Hello Cho, Harry." Then she took my hand and steered us both away from them.
"Thanks." I told her when we were out of hearing distance.
"Oh no problem. I heard some Snicklepops buzzing around them." She tilted her head to the side thoughtfully again.
"Snicklepops?" I frowned.
"Oh they show that Harry and Cho aren't really happy. Popplepops would be there if they loved each other." She nodded.
"Oh right. Well that's good." I replied still feeling slightly confused. New thing on my to do list: find out about Snicklepops and Popplepops. We were soon to the dorms and I thanked Luna once more and said the password before I entered. The room was empty except Harry sitting by the fire looking into the flames.
"Hello." I said tentively unable to tell whether he wanted interuption. He nodded to the seat next to him and I sat.
"What's up?" I asked.
"Oh nothing. I'm just confused." He answered as he put his head into his hands.
"About?" I pressed further.
"Me and Cho kissed." He told me.
"Oh well that's good right?" My acting skills were truely stunning.
"That's what I thought. I mean I've liked her since my 3rd year but the kiss didn't seem as..." He trailed off.
"Maybe you waited to long." I shrugged.
"That maybe I waited so long and that I suddenly didn't like her as much as I thought and that it wasn't as good as I expected." He nodded with me. I didn't like to tell him that I'd liked him since my 1st year and that was longer than he'd liked Cho and it was possible for me and him also.
"Yeah. It could of been that or because you had so many expectations you just wanted it to be perfect. Maybe it was a great kiss but you just had too high expectations." I smiled at him and pushed a strand of hair back from my face.
"So what should I do?" He asked.
"Try again. That's all you can do." I didn't know why I was helping. This would push us further apart. But I just wanted him to be happy. Even if he wasn't with me.
"Okay," He paused to take my hand, squeeze it and then get up, "Thanks Ginny. You're a really good friend."
"No problem. That's what friend's are here for. To give advice." I let go of his hand even though I didn't want to. I wanted to hold it forever.
"I hope you find someone special. You deserve it. I'll keep you posted with Cho." He headed to the boys room.
"Me too, hopefully that's you," I whispered to myself to him I said, "You better Harry James Potter or I'll kick your butt."
He laughed. "Night Ginny."
"Night." Then he climbed the steps and I was alone. I took my part of staring it the fire just like Harry had done a few moments ago. I'd just have to move on from him. I watched the orange flames dance with each other and eventually I dragged myself up and headed into my own room. I changed into my pyjama's and got into bed. I soon drifted into a restless sleep about a certain messy haired boy and a certain ginger haired girl realizing there love for each other.
