I was staring out of the window, watching the countryside speed by and turn in to a constant blur with the sound of Harry and Ron talking about Quidditch across from me. I wasn't paying much attention to anything but my current thoughts which were of the whereabouts of a certain Ginger fourth year that always usually sat with us.

After I spent a while thinking about this, I heard the compartment door slide open and Neville walked in to the compartment and sat down, followed by no one else except for Ginny Weasley. A smile appeared on my face and I turned to be social instead of looking out of the window, Harry noticed this and gave me a confused look, I shook my head and he looked away.

The rest of the journey was spent talking about further Quidditch, spells, teachers, what lessons would be like this year, what the next adventure would be and then there was some petty arguments mainly between Ron and Ginny but obviously, Ron gave up in these arguments as we all knew that Ginny could cast some very harsh spells at times and no one wanted to be on the receiving end of them or they would be sorry.

When we finally got up to the castle and sat down next or across from each other, the sorting hat went straight in to singing a new song and then started to sort the new students between the houses. Straight after this Dumbledore rose up and give his usual short speech which only consisted of roughly five or six words and then quickly introduced Professor Lockhart whom when many girls saw, they swooned and nearly fainted. I rolled my eyes and looked at Ginny, she had just mirrored me and then moved her plate and goblet to the side and rested her arms on the table and her head on them.

The plates suddenly filled with food and Ron dug in eagerly making as much noise eating the food as he could and annoyed Ginny a lot by doing this. It took two minutes for her to snap and yell.

"Ron, must you eat like a pig? It's disgusting" Ginny yelled at him. He just stared at her and then continued to eat; she sighed and looked down at her own empty plate. Ginny always seemed to have problem with Ron these days, he could never do anything right. I did wonder what was going on between them but maybe she was just stressed out. I decided that I would try to talk to her when we got back to the common room.

We all sat in silence and ate the food that was presented in front of us, everyone ate apart from Ginny. I kept looking up to see whether she was alright but every time I looked up, it felt like she was just getting upset or in a worse mood than she was already.

After dinner had finished, she sat still and didn't make any sign whether she was going to get up and go to the common room. Everyone else had left and it was just me and her who were sitting at the table across from each other. I heard her sigh once again and she lifted her head up and looked shocked that I was still sat there whilst everyone else wasn't.

"Ginny, what's wrong?" I asked her gently.

"You wouldn't understand" She replied quietly.

"Try me. Come on, you can tell me"

"No I can't." She said in a tone of voice that seemed to be getting more raised by the minute.

"Why not?" I was confused as to why she couldn't tell me, we had talked about a few things before but I don't know why she didn't feel like she could talk to me right now about her problems. Maybe she just needed time, if she didn't answer this then I would back off for a while but I wasn't going to let it drop and I would find out.

"Because it's you okay! It's you!" She yelled and then got up and walked off. I sat there in silence. I'd like to think that when she said that that she meant that she doesn't want to tell me everything in her life and that she's sick of just one person knowing about her. Although, I knew that she meant that I was the problem but I couldn't see why.
I eventually got up and walked slowly up to the common room and followed someone else through the portrait. I walked in to the main area and saw that Harry was the only one in there and that he was sat in front of the fire facing it. I walked over to him and sat next to him.

"Hermione? Do you have any idea what is going on between Ron and Ginny? It seemed a bit tension filled at dinner" He asked me. I shook my head.

"I wish I knew, I really do, I don't know what's going on with Ginny these days, she won't talk to me, she's hardly said anything to me in all the time that we've seen each other"

"I have the feeling that even Ron doesn't know what he's done wrong" he replied. I nodded once again as I felt the same because I knew that Ginny wouldn't just tell Ron what he was doing wrong or what her problems were, especially if they were about me because Ginny would obviously know that Ron would have a further problem or would just cause trouble and have a big fit about it like he always seems to do.
