A/N: disclaimer: I do not own harry potter or its characers(though i wish i did)
I'm not sure this chapter is that good, but abroadwayluver and lunalovegoodx(my best friends) seemed to like it, so here it is! I'm sorry for the wait, I was out a lot(mostly parties) but I should be going back home in a few days so I'll be updating more frequently, though I may have a lot of outings when I go to Europe but that's still around 2 weeks away...
Ginny's POV, random things happening in the night, and visiting the pond, these events will lead to Ron telling harry he needs to ask out his sister
I lay in my bed staring out the window at the moon glimmering in the night sky. I don't know what the noise in the middle of the night was but I'm sure it had to do with Harry and Ron. Harry has been acting odd ever since the he came from the Dursley's. I hope he's coping with Sirius's death well. Seeing him so distraught that is like seeing Sirius go through the veil again.
I was floating through the air on my broom above the Hogwarts stadium searching for the golden snitch. I was circling around the stands squinting when I spotted a glint of gold. I began diving, the wind blowing my hair behind me in a fury. I was getting closer and closer, I could almost see its wings zooming across the field. I almost had it before I heard a grumbling noise. Why were people grumbling? No one scored a goal and it wasn't raining...
I opened my eyes and groaned, I was having such a good dream but my stupid stomach ruined it! I was too lazy to get up even though my stomach was growling. I just laid there for 10 seconds before my stomach make a large grumble and I got up. I didnt want to wake up anyone in fear that they would be mad in the morning. People like Percy or Ron arent too pleasant when you wake them up.
A few years ago I had to go to the bathroom and I went by Percy's room and he began mumbling something on the lines of "yes mister scrimgeour ill do whatever you need." I could hardly stop the laughter threatening to burst out and the effort caused me to trip and I grabbed onto the nearest thing, which happened to be his doorknob. Because of the force that came with me as I crashed, the doorknob(and my hand) fell to the floor with a sickening crunch. I heard Percy stir in his room and prayed he didn't wake.
He did wake up and in seconds he had the door opened and staring at the door wondering why his doorknob was missing. He was wearing Barty Crouch Pajamas and Cornelius Fudge slippers, I guess he never let go his love for ministers even though one of them died and the other was sacked. He then stared at my hand which held the pieces of the broken doorknob. I could see veins throbbing in his forehead and hoped he didnt ask what happened. It would be a bit awkward explaining to your brother that you broke his doorknob because you heard him sleep-talking and couldn't contain yourself...
As I went down towards the kitchen I saw the bathroom light on and a male voice talking. I grabbed my wand just in case some crazy lunatic decided to use our bathroom to devise an evil plan to kill us all. As I got nearer, I realized Harry was in there. What was he doing in the bathroom in the middle of the night? And why was he talking to himself?
"I'm going to kill Fred and George when I get the chance, how DARE they tell Ron my secret" he said angrily. I heard him turn on the sink water and I guessed he was washing his hands. I'd better get out of here before he sees me,I thought. I walked swiftly away from the bathroom to the kitchen but I couldn't help but wonder what his secret was. If it was really important he would've told the rest of us, wouldn't he? Maybe its something personal and I shouldn't pry. He could have some embarrassing things about him he wouldn't want me to know. Like maybe he's got herpes or some other STD. But if he had an STD he wouldn't have told Fred and George, but they seem to find out a lot of things...
I grabbed some food laying out on the counter and sat down at the table. I began eating some mashed potatoes when I heard an explosion. This time I was sure it was Fred and George. I thought nothing of it until smoke started drifting towards the kitchen. I began running up the stairs but slowed down a bit when the smoke was so dense you couldn't see. I began groping blindly for the stair railing.
I finally managed to get up after about 5 minutes. The smoke was clearing up and you could actually see the door to their room. I thought Fred and George had just had an experiment go wrong but I was mistaken.
"What the heck did you do" I said. Fred and George looked like Lord Voldemort had just appeared.
"There was a HUGE spider about to eat us!" exclaimed Fred. I stared at them for a few seconds before bursting out laughing.
"Sure there was" I said, trying to fight back the laughs.
"No really, it was like the ones Hagrid had hidden in the forbidden forest" said George, spreading his arms out, trying to emphasize how big they were.
"How would you know how big they were?" I said slightly suspicious.
"That is none of your business" said George. At that point Harry and Ron came, most likely trying to find out what the smoke was from.
"If you want to know where the smoke was from, there was a huge spider trying to eat us so we blasted it" said Fred triumphantly.
"We now know how you feel little brother" said George as Ron went slightly pink.
"It couldn't have been that big" said Harry.
"IT WAS!" said Fred almost yelling.
"It was like those spiders in the forbidden forest" said George.
"Why were you in the forbidden forest" said Mum sharply as she came towards us.
"Hagrid thought we needed to see how big spiders can really get" said Fred and George together. Mum didnt look very convinced.
"Why would you need to know how big they get" asked Ron a little scared.
"Enough for now, we will talk about this in the morning" said mum, shooing us away from Fred and George's room.
I woke up the next morning feeling exhausted. I don't exactly know i got so tired, I didn't really do much. Maybe the smoke was hard on my lungs? I got up from my bed and began getting dressed. I was spending the day outside relaxing. I put on a blue dress that was slightly green-tinged like the color of the lake at hogwarts when it was nice out. I put on some silver, jeweled flip-flops and a silver necklace with a big rose in the middle. I moved over to my mirror where I put on beige colored eyeshadow and applied mascara. I also put on rosy beige lipstick and soft pink lip gloss. I looked at myself, satisfied and went downstairs.
As I ate breakfast I noticed Harry staring at me a lot. Maybe he found out I heard him talking to himself last nigh? Breakfast consisted of toast, pancakes, sausage, bacon, and pumpkin juice. Throughout the entire meal, no one talked. It was the longest awkward silence I had ever experienced. I don't really know why no one talked. Perhaps because no one wanted to talk about last night and surely that subject would pop up. I still don't understand how a humongous spider could get into their room. Did they have a spider crawl into one of their concoctions?
When I finished eating I grabbed my wand, a magazine, sunglasses, a blanket, a swimsuit and some food and headed out. I headed toward the edge of the forest where a beautiful pond was located. It had large rocks in the back that water magically ran through to make a waterfall. The rocks were covered in moss and white and orange lilies. Palm trees lined the pond but at the left side there was a big weeping willow. I went over to the willow tree and laid out my blanket and sat down. I put my basket of food next to me and pulled out my cosmowitch magazine.
The main story was "How to get a hot wizard." I turned to the pages with the newest fashion trends. Apparently one of the new fashion trends was fishwear. Gladrags had a rainbow fish scaled robe, angel fish scaled boots, and a goldfish bracelet that had eyes and magically blinked. Their main product was a lionfish belt that had an assortment of things you could do with it.
1) Show it off to your friends to make them jealous
2) Attack someone with the venom mode
3) Change the belt to say whatever you want(the magazine picture had "buy me" flashing on the belt)
4)Help you defeat your greatest enemy
This was a rather interesting belt, but it wouldn't really help me if I was battling Voldemort. What was I going to do? Smack him with it? Make the belt say "I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!!MUHAHAHAHAHA"? Try to make him jealous by showing it off on my great body? I swear some people just don't think. I gave up on the magazine and pulled my bathing suit out. I changed into it swiftly and walked over to the water. I dipped my perfectly manicured foot into it to test the temperature. It was pretty warm so I jumped in. I imagined I would stay here for most of the day relaxing, but little did I know something interesting was about to happen.
A/N: I'm sorry for the long delay, I've had a lot of things to do. If this chapter is not very satisfying, I'm incredibly sorry and I promise the next ones will be better, I wrote half the chapter with a small writer's block and half-asleep but I had a LOT of help from abroadwayluver so this chapter can't be all that bad. The reasons for the long delay were: My sister and grandparents were making a lot of food I had to try, I was trying to help Abroadwayluver with her story and point out her spelling mistakes, my mom and sister kept kicking my off the computer, the Internet was having issues, I had gotten really bad sleep, Abroadwayluver was not there to help when I needed it, and I went out a lot.
I would like to thank
Abroadwayluver:for her unwavering helpfulness and criticism. That part about fish wear was when we were looking at dresses she found Fishskin jeans... If you like the twilight series you should read her story "Ten Ways to Make Two Luckless Fools Fall In Love"
Lunalovegoodx: You were helpfull in giving me ideas of what to use in extra chapters, though some of your ideas were incredibly odd, Abroadwayluver and I still love you.

I would really appreciate any reviews!! Tell me whether or not you think this chapter sucked. I could rewrite it if needed.
Hope all of you who celebrate 4th of July have an INCREDIBLE time!!
