Making Alliances:
Harry turned to look at Ginny. He was alone with her, but he didn't mind.
The redhead girl got up so she can sit next to Harry at the table. Harry
couldn't take his eyes off her. She didn't take hers off of him. One she
sat down Ginny broke the silence. "What are we going to do with them?" She
asked shaking her head.
"I don't know." Harry replied looking away to the girl's dormitory. Then
added, "I mean I know we have to do something but I don't know what."
"Yeah. Hey do you...um...want to team up?...You know to get them together."
Ginny asked nervously, scared he didn't want to.
"YEAH! That will be great!" He was going to be able to be with Ginny. He
looked at Ginny, who seemed to him to be holding a laugh. "I mean just to
help Ron and Hermione."
Ginny stopped smiling. She thought Harry was excited about spending time
with her, but he just wanted to help his friends. 'Why was he so nice and
caring and thoughtful and – STOP IT! Your just his best friend's little
sister!' Ginny thought to herself.
"You okay?" Harry asked worried he said something wrong. He hated when
Ginny was upset. It now looked like she was on the verge of tears.
"What? Sorry. Yeah I'm fine." She said quickly, hoping Harry wouldn't think
she's a cry baby for no good reason.
"You sure?"
"Yes, I just yawned and it makes my eyes water." Ginny lied, trying to
laugh at herself. Why couldn't she come up with a better lie then that
yawning crap?
"Okay," Harry said gently. He knew she was lying. He couldn't take his eyes
off her. He would have seen her yawn. But the last thing Harry wanted was
to upset Ginny.
"So," Ginny said trying to break the now very awkward silence. Harry still
looked concerned for her. "Rona and Hermione"
"Yeah. Ron and Hermione." Harry replied looking away.
"Any ideas?"
"None, you?"
"No."
"Oh this is going to be fun!" Harry said.
"Tones," Ginny replied.
"You know we really do have clueless friends."
"The smartest girl in Hogwarts can be so stupid about her own life. And my
brother, who is...wait he's always be stupid."
Harry laughed making Ginny laugh too. He loved her smile and laugh. Ginny
was happy she made Harry smile. She couldn't get enough of his smile.
Once they caught their breaths they realized how close their faces were.
Their noses almost touched. Harry's hand was on top of Ginny's. Now their
breaths were warm against the others face. Each of their hearts started
beating faster and faster. They leaned in even more. Ginny turned her head
and closed her eyes. Harry looked at her. His heart fell. He liked her, a
lot. But she didn't feel the same. She only saw him as the guy who came
over every summer. Her brother's best friend. As much as he wanted to kiss
her. Hold her. He couldn't. He didn't want her to make a mistake and regret
it later. Harry could never for give himself if he make Ginny regret
anything.
"It's getting late." Harry said pulling away. He couldn't look at her. He
didn't want to see what her face showed.
"Yeah." She replied weakly, pulling back herself. She tried to hold back
tears. What did she do wrong? Maybe Harry didn't like her. She started to
stand up. " I should go check on Hermione."
"Ginny..." Harry after he glanced at her and realized she was up. He stood up
himself. What was he going to say? Didn't she know all he wanted to do was
kiss her but couldn't?
"So...um...tomorrow we'll meet and come up with a plan." Ginny wasn't listening
to Harry. She wasn't herself. She was embarrassed, hurt, and needed to
leave before her tears poured out of her eyes.
"Yeah. Tomorrow." Harry said still hating himself. He stared at Ginny,
trying to think of something, anything, to say. He's such an idiot. Ginny
looked at him.
"Night Harry." She said still feeling awful but forcing a smile at him.
"Night Ginny." He said quietly. Harry watched her as she went up the girl's
stairs. He waited there a couple of minutes, hoping she would come back to
him. But knowing she wasn't coming he walked up the stairs to the boy's
dorms feeling lousy.
