Disclaimer: I'm not JKR and I don't own any of her work, blah, blah, blah,

Stupid mum, why does she make me set the table? Why me? She's got plenty other children capable, why is it always me? Is it some sort of gender thing? If a guy sets the table once and a while it doesn't mean he's gay! Humph!

I always get stuck doing chores when Harry, Ron, and Hermione are let along to go hang out! I mean the one vacation Ron doesn't care that I'm around, the one vacation I'm asked to go down to the beach with them, I can't, do ya wanna know why? Because I have to set the table!

So not fair. I guess I'll just stand here, hating my life, and no one cares, and you know why? Becau- "Oh! Um, hey Harry! Why aren't you down at the beach?"

I cannot believe this, Harry Potter is standing across from me! He is wet and adorable and he is smiling at me! And he is saying something…..oh yeah I asked a question! "-figured I'd torture them and make them spend some time alone ya know?" he finishes and looks at me, "Oh yeah totally." I say nodding. (hopefully he didn't notice I missed the first half of his sentence.)

"So do you need some help?" he asks being a gentlemen, (actually I'm pretty much done but I'm not passing this opportunity up!) "Um sure, you can fold the napkins and I'll put the cutlery on top if you'd like…"

"Of coarse, its not fair that you always get stuck with the chores, we always seem conveniently busy." he said chuckling with a guilty look. Oh he is so sweet! I laugh with him and add "It's ok, I don't really care," As long as you keep looking at me like that! Wait, I didn't say that out loud did I? No, he's smiling, and not running away, I think I'm good.

We fall into a silence, but it's not one of those awkward ones, its simple and nice, like there is no need for words, just each other's company is enough.

Wait, ohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygod! He just touched me! His hand brushed mine! I went to grab a napkin, and he handed it to me at the same time and our fingers brushed! Oh my god contact has been made!


Oh my god! I just brushed her hand! It was like electricity! I wonder if she felt it! It was the best idea I ever had to come find her without Ron around! I am a genius! And if Ron and Hermione end up officially dating because of this too, I'll just be a god!

Wait, how long have I been mentally celebrating? I should have said something by now! She must think I'm mental! "So, um, excited about how nice the weather's been?"

I did not just ask her about the weather! She giggled, and said "Um it's been great?" We looked at each other and burst out laughing.

When we finally could breathe again I said sarcastically "What I'm not allowed to ask you about the weather?" she gave me a cheeky look and we got back to our work smiling.

I need to touch her again! Just a little brush! Anything! I'm being pulled towards her, ok, I'll quickly bend over to reach for something, yes just like that….ok, now put your hand on the small of her back! Hey I did it! And this is casual, this is fine, oh shit I should probably take it off now though!

Ok, its all good, she seems fine, I got what I wanted, oh and she felt so small and fragile, and her hair whipped across my hand, and she smells so g-! "Oh, hey Mrs. Weasley!"

"Hello dear! Now, why aren't you down on the beach with the others?" she asked looking confused

"Well I was just getting so hot down there!" I answered, not the best lie I've ever told but Ginny's presence is very distracting!

"Oh I see," Mrs. Weasley said looking like she that was good enough for her, "Could you be a dear and go tell the others dinner is ready Harry? Oh and Ginny I need you in the kitchen."

"Sure thing." I answer, as she walks out of the room, and look at Ginny, she says "Well, I guess we'd better go then," "Yeah, your right." I agree, we smile shyly and look away.

God she's so beautiful! Then I walk out the door, going in the exact opposite direction of where I want to be.
