I do not own any of these characters. Well maybe a few. But that's besides the point. Most of these characters belong to J.K. Rowling. I take no credit for them what-so-ever. So please enjoy (and don't sue).

Ginny's POV

"Hello?" I called out. I was sure I had heard something move. I know it can't be Harry. He stopped following me a long time ago, after that failed first date last year. I shook my head. I didn't want to think about that night ever again.

'Oh well' I thought. I turned around to head into the great hall. I was late enough as it was. Had a bit too long of a shower after quidditch practice. Right as I was opening the door I heard the sound again.

"Hello?" I called out again. A couple more quiet footsteps sounded in the otherwise silent hallway. Draco Malfoy sauntered slowly around the corner, looking laid back and uncaring as usual. His smirk was plastered onto his pale face.

"Waiting for me Weasley?" he said as he gave her a cruel smile. Oh he mad her so mad. She made a sound deep in her throat, like a subdued growl. She spun on her heels and marched into the great hall. She headed straight past the Slytherin table and flopped down in between Ron and Harry.

Ron cast her a worried glance. "You alright Gin?"

"Don't talk to me." she whispered in an enraged tone.

"Geez Ginny calm down a bit." was his immediate response. He turned the other way and started talking to a girl named Patty. Harry looked at her with a questioning look.

"Malfoy" was all I said. He nodded and continued to wolf down his Sheppard's pie. That is until Hermoine showed up. He then blushed slightly and stopped eating quite as fast.

As she was walking across the room I leaned over and whispered, "Might want to wipe the peas off your face before she gets here." His face went scarlet, and he madly wiped his face on a napkin.

"Well that's a bit better..." She trailed off. Harry wasn't paying attention anyway.

Harry's POV

Blimey she was gorgeous. Her long legs sliding gracefully across the floor, he skirt swishing back and forth when she moved. Her sweater accenting her curves, just right. Not that there could ever be a wrong with her. He watched her shove some of her curly, slightly bushy, hair out of her face, only to have it fall back into place. She caught his gaze and smiled at him. He felt his face redden and looked away.

She dropped a pile of books on the table, making a loud thud. Ron looked away from Patty. Hey Mione, why are you so late?"

"I got caught up reading a book in the library." Hermoine reached across the table as she was talking and flicked a pea off of Harry's hand.

I looked at Ginny for a moment, wondering why she didn't mention it. She rolled her eyes, and I knew that she probably told me and I just wasn't listening. Oh well.

Hermione's foot bumps mine under the table.

"Oh. Sorry" I say.

"It's ok, I don't mind." she said with the slightest tilt to her voice. My eyebrows raise a tiny bit in question. She taps her fingers on the table in answer. Not the most helpful of answers, but an answer none-the-less. She keeps tapping her fingers on the table all of supper. I couldn't seem to focus on anything else.

Draco's POV

Late in, late out, I kept telling himself as I left dinner quite later then I usually did. That run in with the Weasley girl messed up my schedule. Especially now that I couldn't get my mind off of it.

"Ugh" I mumbled to myself, as I walked back to the Slytherin common room. That growl sound she made, it drove me out of my mind for a couple of seconds. It just made me want to grab her and pull her to me.

"It's just the growl." I murmured. "Anyone could have done that." I kept murmuring to myself. No one was around, I wasn't paying attention, just whispering to myself as I walked through the dungeons.

I hurried around the corner, almost to the common room, and ran right into someone. We both landed on the floor. I looked up and found that it was Ginny Weasley.

"Sorry" she said. I ignored it and moved on.

"Why are you down in the dungeons anyway Weasley?" I sneered.

"Peeves was at it again. Flooded bathroom, everyone had to go around. This was the quickest route." She added with a tiny smirk of her own, "Don't think I cam down here for you Malfoy. That we be a bit too cocky. Even for you." Then she grabbed her bag and was off down the hall in a flash.

I shook my head and walked off in the opposite direction. That girl was a fire storm, always going off on people. She even had the red hair to match. I got up and continued on my way to the common room.

When I got inside I see Charlotte MacMillan, a tiny third year who was consistently scaring everyone, almost growl at a girl who touched her homework. It was a nasty sound. It definitely wasn't just the growl.

Ron's POV

I was madly scribbling down some of Hermione's homework while she was focusing on a game of chess with Fred and George. Suddenly Hermione yelled out and spun in a circle, exclaiming

"I won! I won!" until she saw Ron copying her homework "What are you doing?!" I stood up and rolled up my parchment.

"Nothing right at this moment." I said as I scurried up to the boys rooms, hopefully she wouldn't follow me. I came back down a while later, and tried to sneak past Hermione. Rather unsuccessfully, she saw me and tried to follow, but I was out the door and headed for the stairs before she could catch up.

I have to find somewhere quiet to go. Somewhere she wouldn't expect me to go, otherwise I would get yelled at. Maybe one of the secrets tunnels, or empty classrooms. I wandered around the hallways, and ended up slightly lost. I thought I was on the first floor, but I just past a staircase, maybe I was on the second floor instead. I wandered around a bit more, and now I was quite turned 'round.

"Are you lost?" a little voice called out from somewhere to his right. I turned around to look at her, but I couldn't see where her voice came from. Who was it? I wondered.

"Everyone is always a little lost sometimes." the feminine voice said. "Even when it doesn't seem like it." A short, slim, young lady came out from behind a statue.

"Luna?" I asked. Luna Lovegood, the slightly crazy Ravenclaw girl, tilted her head to the side like she didn't hear. I repeated myself.

"I heard you the first time. You don't need to repeat yourself."

"Then why didn't you answer?"

"I felt as if the answer was to obvious. It was brought along with the wind, it didn't need to be said by me." I scrunched my eyebrows together trying to understand. "You have no idea where you are." she continued. She didn't even seem to be asking a question.

"Do you know where we are?" I asked.

"The second floor. Six corridors to left, three to the right, and twelve steps down. Do you know where we are now?" She looked straight into his eyes as she said this.

"By the kitchen?" I asked. Her directions didn't help me one bit.

"Not in the slightest. Follow me." she said over her shoulder. I scurried to catch up. I was not getting lost again.

"Blimey, curfew is in just a few minutes!" I said as I checked my watch. Luna glanced back, tilted her head, and kept walking. We made many turns, and once had to avoid Filch and his cat. Then Luna stopped short. I ran right into her, and we tumbled down the stairs she had stopped in front of.

"That was fun" she said once we had hit the bottom. We untangled ourselves and stood up. She gave me a wide eyed look and a small wave, then walked off towards her common room.

I watched her walk away until I heard footsteps coming from the other direction, then I ran up the stairs as fast as I could. I only stopped when I was inside the Gryffindor common room.

I leaned against the wall and breathed heavily for several moments. When I finally came 'round the corner, there were very few people in the room. A few girls were talking to Harry as he gathered up some parchment and books that were scattered across a table. I walked towards them, and Harry handed off the books and parchment to the girls before he turned to me.

"Hey. Where have you been?" he asked. Not in the condescending tone Hermione uses, just Harry's usual voice.

"Around. Got a bit lost." he shook his head at that.

"We've been here for six years and you still get lost." he said, half through his laughter. I shook my head at him.

"I'm going to bed before you fall down." I said as I walked to our dorm. The sound of his laughter carried in my wake.

Hermione's POV

I woke up and stretched, expecting to still be sitting in my chair. Realizing that I was in my bed, I got rather flustered and fell out of my bed. Rather ungracefully.

"Oh Hermione! Your awake!" Julia said as she rushed up to me. I heard choruses of similar remarks, but Julia's was the loudest.

"How did I get here?" was the first question out of my mouth. I knew that Julia was going to start talking in a matter of seconds, and that just wouldn't do.

"Oh he was so sweet. He gathered up all of your homework, and then carried you upstairs too. It was so sweet, and caring, and wonderful..." she just kept going. It was pointless to cut her off now. I'll ask Ginny at breakfast I thought.

"Julia. Julia!" I said quite loudly. She stared at me. "I am going to go take a shower. You can kept me up later. Alright?" I said as I backed slowly towards the washroom. She nodded then went on gossiping with the other girls. Biggest gossip in our grade that one.

I took a fast shower, wondering who would have carried me up to my bed. When that was done I got dressed, did my hair, and grabbed my books before Julia finally caught up to me.

"So he asked us to get all your books, which is a lot by the way," she picked up right where she left off. "And we got all of your homework too, then he just picked you up asked us too get the door for you two." She took a small breath than continued (a rare event for her) "Then he tucked you into bed, brushed your hair out of your face, drew your curtains, an-" I cut her off.

"Who is he?!" I asked, rather rattled at this point.

"Well Harry of course." she looked startled that I didn't already know that.

"Julia I am going to breakfast." I said and hurried down the stairs. I almost ran the whole way there. I didn't want to hear any more gossip from Julia McBrewin. I wanted the facts. And that I would have to talk to the one person who knew what had happened. I sighed. How do I always manage to embarrass my self somehow when I was with Harry. Even though we had been best friends for years. I was lost in thought until I plunked down at the Gryffindor table.

"Sleep well?" Ginny asked. She was wearing that grin that said she knew something. My face flushed a little upon seeing that.

"Fine, thank you." I looked down. When I glanced back at her, she waggled her eyebrows at me. I sighed.

"Does everyone know?" I asked.

"Julia knows. So, yeah, pretty much everybody." I sighed again. Julia was going to have to shut her bug mouth one day, sooner or later. Oh how I hope it was sooner.

"So" Ginny continued, "Do you remember anything? Or are you just a blank?" I shook my head.

"Not a thing."

"Oh darn. I wanted to hear it from you. Maybe I will just have to ask Harry." she said as she looked around and started to stand up.

"Oh don't you dare!" I said and pulled her back to her seat. She started laughing, then laughing harder, until she was laughing hysterically. I was staring at her until suddenly, Harry plopped down across from her.

"What's so funny?" he asked. That sobered Ginny up some. She looked at me and I looked at her. There was a silent conversation between us that ended very quickly. Harry kept glancing between us.

Ginny and I said simultaneously "Nothing." and put our heads down to our breakfasts. Harry stared at us for a while, then settled down to his eggs and toast. I looked at Ginny, she glanced at me, and we both couldn't help ourselves. We both burst into hysterical laughter. Nothing could stop it.

By the end of breakfast, half the school was watching us. We only calmed down when we had to go our separate ways in the hallway. I rushed to my Herbology class. Maybe I could get there before Harry I wondered. Until he fell into step beside me.

"Somewhere to be Hermione?" he asked.
