Chapter Four

While Harry was talking to Ron about Ginny,Ginny was in her room still crying over her pictures when Mrs.Weasley called up to her room.

"Ginny dear, dinner will be ready in about an hour."

"Ok mum!" Ginny replied sniffully.

Ginny had started to wipe the tears off of her face when Hermione had walked through the door.Ginny forgot that she would be boarding with Hermione until the wedding.

"Hi Ginny." Hermione said happily, not noticing Ginny's tear-streaked face or her puffy red eyes.

"Hey Hermione. Are you done planning the wedding?"

"Almost. I just have to decide what song you and Harry are going to dance to at the reception. Seeing as how you are the Maid of Honor and Harry is the best man."

"Oh...I have to dance with Harry?" Ginny asked.

"Yeah...but Ginny whats wrong? You look upset." Hermione just noticed that Ginny had been crying.

"Nothing...I'm fine." Ginny said wiping the rest of her tears away.

"Ginny you're lying to me."

"Why the Hell would you say I am upset?" Ginny tried to look happy but it didn't work.

"Ummm...because your eyes are red and puffy, your face is tearstreaked, you have crumpled up tissues all around your bed...oh and you are practically choking back tears as I tell you how I know your upset." Hermione answered.

"Fine! You're right...I'm upset! Happy?" Ginny shot back.

"No! Not Happy. Now what is upsetting you?"

"I don't want to talk about it right now, Hermione."

"Is it Harry?"

"How do you know?" Ginny asked.

"Well when he came you left while Ron and I were with him and you are holding pictures of you and Harry and crying over him."

Ginny should have expected this. Hermione was one of the smartest people when they were at Hogwarts and she usually observed everything.

"As always Hermione...you are right." Ginny said, finally surrendering.

"Ok Ginny tell me whats going on with you and Harry."

"Well Harry and I had a fight..."

"And...?" Hermione said, pressing on for more information.

"Well when Harry came in I was shocked...so when you weren't looking I quietly came up here and I started throwing pictures of us at the wall. Harry must of heard the noise, because he came up here. He looked at the pictures and asked why I was doing this and I told him because he was in them. I think he got upset and he guessed if this was because he broke up with me...then he started to try and explain why he did what he did but I wouldn't listen then he said something about still liking me but I don't know what that meant. But after that he turned on his heel and walked toward the door and was about to leave when he turned around and repaired the pictures.Then he left.And since then, I can't stop crying."
Ginny felt horrible. It was hard enough to go through the fight with Harry the first time...but having to relive it again for Hermione...

It took awhile for Hermione to say anything. Finally Hermione opened her mouth.

"Ginny...I think you still like Harry."

"Hermione...I don't like Harry...I love him with all my heart. After he broke up with me I cried for weeks. He was the only guy I ever loved and ever will love." "Wow" Ginny thought to herself "It felt good to tell someone that."

"Ginny...if you still love Harry, then why are you so upset about seeing him?"

"Because...after Voldemort was defeated Harry left and he didn't tell us were he went or if he was ok. A couple of weeks later I knew that I had to get over him...I even went out with a couple of new guys...but that didn't work...so as the months drew on I was living my life witout Harrry...but Hermione...when I came down stairs earlier today all of those feelings came back...my heart lifted for just knowing that Harry was ok and that he was right there in front of me. But Hermione I just realized that I need him to be with me. I want him back. I want him to hold me in his arms."

"Wow..." Hermione was in tears.

"I didn't mean to make you cry...its just thats how I really feel."

Pretty soon both of the girls were crying silently. About 15 minutes of crying the girls hugged.

"Thank you for confiding in me Ginny."

"You're welcome. I think that I needed to hear it out loud myself. I needed to know that Harry is the guy for me and I would be nothing without him." Ginny ansewered. "I feel a lot better. The thing is...I think that I have known that for awhile now."

"Good." Hermione said.

"The only problem now is I don't know how Harry feels or what he meant by saying "liked"." Ginny now had a look of confusion on her face.

"I'm sure we..." Hermione stopped in mid-sentence; she had a look of "I-just-had-an-idea" plastered all over her face. Hermione ran out the room yelling,

"Ron! Ronald! Where are you I need to talk to you."

"Hermione...where are you going?" Ginny asked, startled.

"I will have to talk to you later...sorry Ginny!" Hermione yelled back.

Ginny just stared at the door where her friend had went through. Ginny had a look of confusion on her face, trying to figure out what Hermione was up to.
