Okay, since I lied about having the other chapter out as soon as I said, I thought I would pump this one out. Warning, this chapter might not be as good/exciting as previous one's, but it's late and I didn't want to write a chapter that is suppose to be great while tired. Though it does end it a cliffhanger type thing, but nothing crazy! The next chapter I promise will be one of the best, if not the best. So I will stop rambling, and let you get to reading! Hope you like it!


The rest of Wednesday went by rather slowly in Ginny's opinion, but on the contrary it was a happy day, thought the reading she wanted to get done wasn't being read. It close to dinner, Ginny and Hermione were again helping Lily with dinner. Lily had an all to happy look on her face.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, for Harry's birthday tomorrow, your parents are coming home for a few days with Bill, and apparently his new girlfriend." Ginny was completely taken aback, first that Bill had a girlfriend, and that she forgot Harry's birthday. The reason Hermione and herself were going to make his life hell, which really didn't play out as was planned. "You forgot didn't you?"

"I- no, I knew. I just- I- I'm surprised Bill- has a girlfriend-that's all." The fake smile I tried to convince her with obviously didn't work.

"Mhmm, sure. Well, Molly says she's French, and absolutely atrocious. But I do know her parents, their an acutance of James' and I." I snorted. That's it Bill, go for the girl nobody could see you with.

"What are her parents like?" Lily, looked to me,

"Ginny, are you trying to get dirt on her?" I raised my shoulders and tried to look as fake-innocent as I could. Lily saw right through it. "Well, her parents are agreeable to a point. They are obviously from money, but they wouldn't shove it in your face, but you would know they are." They don't sound to awful bad, but she was French, she had to keep a close eye on her. "So, Hermione, you haven't said much. Bill is as much your brother as Ginny's." Hermione looked up, mouth hanging, it was obvious she wasn't expecting to be talked to, I found it funny, for once in her life, Hermione Granger was speechless.

"I just-have a lot on my mind lately." Neither Lily or I was convinced by that little smirk I just tried to get away with.

"So, it has nothing to do with the fact that you and Ron are going to dinner Friday night?" Hermione's face could not have gotten redder, "Well, what are you too planning on wearing on your- dinners, since you two would most likely faint if I were to call them dates?" I hadn't thought about it, I didn't even know where we were going, Hermione looked just as lost as I did.

"Well, I don't even know where were going to be honest so…" Lily laughed and rolled her eyes like; "So typical Harry, don't tell the girl where your taking her."

"I know where were going, I suggested it. So, probably just regular clothes, nothing fancy." Then I piped up,

"I'm winging it. This is a "Sorry-For-Being-Prick-The-Other-Morning-Dinner" so, I will wear what I choose, when I choose it!" We were all laughing by then, when none other than Harry walked in the kitchen at the prospect of there being food in their.

"So, mum when's dinner?" Lily rolled her eyes,

"When it's done cooking Harry, it would go faster if I had more help. You can come help to Ron!" There was an audible sigh from around the corner. Then came a sulking Ron, the room was full of teenage tension, that was quickly dissipated by Lily giving the boys jobs, Harry was put with Ginny cutting vegetables for the soup. Ginny had a hard time not smiling, but managed.

"So, mum, what time is Sirius coming Saturday?" Ginny dropped her knife, she knew if Sirius came he would by no means find out about Friday night, and he would never let either of the live it down. It was Sirius' mission in life apparently to make Harry and Ginny see that they were indeed meant for each other. This was just the shining star at the end of the path. "Oh Harry and Ginny, their first non-official date!" She could just see it now. A fucking nightmare.

"Oh, nobody told me we would be graced by dear old Sirius." Lily laughed, knowing what Sirius thought of the two, even thought she knew it to be true. Harry added, under his breath,

"Oh, of course he is, here at the right moment in life where he'll grace everybody with his thoughts about Friday." And if not right on cue,

"What's happening Friday?" All five of them turned to a smiling Sirius Black, grinning wildly.

Both Harry and Ginny simultaneously thought, "Shit."


Please, don't kill me for how short this chapter is, like I said earlier, it's late and I should be sleeping, like any normal person, but we all know I'm not normal. Well, hope you enjoyed it, and left you waiting for more. I also have to say, that I almost forgot about Harry's birthday like mentioned earlier in the story, so I had to shove it in there, only to find out that on July 31st 1997 was actually on a Thursday! I thought that was sweet and had to share the news. Hope you review, for now, I'm OVER AND OUT!
