Ginny screamed as something furry brushed past her ankles. It was Crookshanks, Hermione's cat. She was sneaking out of Gyffindor tower in the middle of the night to meet someone. She tried to be quiet as she crossed the common room toward the portrait hole. She didn't want be caught and get in trouble if someone were to wake up. Unfortunately, someone had heard her scream.
"Ginny?"
Quick as she could she dove behind the sofa and peered around it. It was Harry. Ginny had forgotten that Harry looked so handsome in his pinstriped light and dark blue bathrobe.
She heard him again. "Ginny, I know you're in here. You can't fool me. Come out wherever you're hiding."
Ginny knew she couldn't fool the famous Harry Potter. She stood up and said, in a quiet voice, "how did you know that I'd be sneaking out tonight?"
Harry shrugged as he moved closer to her. She began to blush and her heart did that flippy over thing in her chest - just like old times.
"Where were you going, anyway?" Harry asked.
It wasn't any of his business, but Ginny still told him everything. About how she was going to meet up with Draco Malfoy; how she and him were dating but kept it secret from everyone. When she was finished, she looked up at Harry.
"You won't tell anyone, will you?"
Harry shook his head no. Ginny smiled and gave Harry a quick hug before she hurried out of the common room. Harry sighed and went back to bed before anyone else came downstairs.
