Harry was not very happy that his trunk was still downstairs. He had to carry his trunk by himself and it was very heavy. After carrying his trunk upstairs, he let go of it to get some rest.
BANG!
Harry turned, frightened, and saw his trunk downstairs, open. His things were all over the place.
He swore quite loudly and walked downstairs to pack it up again. Ron appeared at the top of the stairs.
'Merlin's clean laundry! What happened, Harry?' he yelled.
'Well, I just wanted to throw my trunk of the stairs and pack it up again!' Harry yelled back furiously.
'Oh, right. I'll ask mum to take it over to Ginny's …' Ron tailed off, taking the stairs two steps at a time and going into the kitchen.
Mrs Weasley walked over.
'Sorry, Harry, I thought Fred and George were mucking around again, so I didn't respond. It was very unkind to not help you with your trunk,' she said, waving her wand.
The items zoomed back into the trunk and closed with a snap. With another wave of Mrs Weasley's wand, the trunk flew upstairs to Ginny's room and knocked.
'What?' Ginny's voice said. When there was no response, Ginny opened the door and the trunk flew into her room. Ginny smacked the door shut again. Harry thanked Mrs Weasley and followed Ron upstairs.
Ron returned to this room. Harry grabbed Hedwig's empty cage (which was still stood on the landing) and knocked on Ginny's door. She opened it noiselessly, but when she saw Harry was the one knocking, she slowly closed the door.
Harry rapped his knuckles on the wood again, patiently.
'Ginny, I don't mean to interrupt,' he said dryly, 'but I've got to sleep here. Plus, you've got my trunk.'
She opened the door and let him in.
Ron had had a point. Ginny's room was a little small. There was one bed, a little desk with a chair, a closet, a bookcase with second-hand Hogwarts books and a mattress (probably for me, thought Harry).
'You don't have to sleep here if you don't want to,' said Ginny. 'I can just drag Hermione over.'
Harry took a seat on the mattress.
'No, this is all right by me,' he said.
'Really?' Ginny raised an eyebrow. 'Fine. Just know I'm allowed to use the bathroom before you.'
'Right,' said Harry.
'Fine.' Ginny gathered everything she needed, stormed out of the room, and slammed the bathroom door shut.
Harry shrugged his shoulders and started on his Transfiguration essay. He went to lie with his stomach pressed to the mattress, Self-Inking Quill and piece of parchment at the ready.
'Merlin, 16 inches on the use of human transfiguration,' he complained softly. He grabbed his copy of Transfiguration: What & How,by Anne Word, and propped it open, his quill occasionally jotting down things he thought were important.
A quarter of an hour later, Ginny stepped into the room. She was wrapped in a towel, dripping water everywhere. As she closed the door behind her, she nodded at him.
'Your turn,' she said.
'I take morning showers,' Harry responded, without taking his eyes off his essay.
Ginny rolled her eyes and slowly edged towards her closet, right next to Harry.
'I could've known - thaaaaaaaargghhh!'
Ginny slipped over her wet feet and fell on top of Harry. Harry's face hit the parchment with his essay, which was wet from ink, and Ginny's hair was everywhere.
'That -- wasn't really necessary,' Harry said, lifting his head.
'I know that,' said Ginny and she stood up. 'It's because I forgot my flip-flops.'
Her towel had moved and she wrapped it up around herself rather quickly. Harry's eyes caught hers and without a warning, Ginny burst out laughing.
Harry's face was covered in ink; his shirt had wet patches from where she'd landed on him.
'Maybe you should take a shower after all,' said Ginny smugly.
'Smart-aleck,' Harry responded, as he rubbed his forehead with the back of his hand.
'You might as well, I need m'room to change,' said Ginny.
'Fine,' said Harry. He grabbed his homework, left the room and crossed the landing, knocking on Ron's door.
Hey guys! Some people asked why Mrs Weasley is angry with Harry and Ginny and not with Ron and Hermione. That's because Mrs Weasley is just worried about Ginny. Then there's Ron, who is a boy. Everyone is waiting for Ron and Hermione to get into a relationship anyway, right?
And thank you for all your support :D
