Hey everyone. Sorry it has been so long since I updated on this story but I have just been taking a break from fan fiction for a while because of stuff going on with my basketball coach. I swear that lady is bipolar and she has no business coaching. OKAY. I'm done complaining about basketball. Because here is the good thing, the only thing that makes me feel better when I am mad is writing. So here is an update for yall!!! Please review if you get a chance. They really mean a lot.

When Ginny came back into the living room, Ron and Harry were talking about some team dinner for the team. Honestly, those two boys picked up like they had been seeing each other every day for the past five years.
"-And you guys should come. It will be really fun. And you can meet the whole team." Harry was saying to Ron.
"When is it?" Ron said doubtfully. "I'm probably working." He stroked his chin, lost in thought. The boys seemed to suddenly realize that Ginny had again graced them with her presence.
"All set?" Harry asked. Ron gave him a funny look, but Harry was oblivious to anything but the likes of Ginny Weasly.
"Yes, I'm ready. Are we Apparating there?" She turned to her brother.
"Nah, I figure we do this all out muggle style!" Ron exclaimed excitedly. "I rented a muggle car and everything!"
"Um, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you know you have to have a liscense to drive one of those things right?" Harry told them. Ron's face fell for a moment.
"Don't worry," Harry said. "I got mine a long time ago, just in case I ever needed one." So they all left Ginny's apartment, and went outside to find an old Toyota Camry sitting in one of the guest's parking spots. It didn't take them very long to get to the fair grounds; it was only about fifteen minutes away. When they got to the ticket booth, Harry graciously offered to handle the money exchanges, since neither Ginny or Ron were very good with muggle money.
"Come on; this way." Harry said, leading them through an open gate. As he did so, he grabbed Ginny's hand to pull her through. When they were on the other side, however, he didn't let go. Ron apparently didn't notice, because all of his attention was focused on the smells coming from some certain booths. The food booths that is.
"I'll catch up with you guys later. I'm going to go have a look over there." He said, his mouth already watering a little.
"He hasn't changed much has he?" Harry whispered into Ginny's ear, sending trails of goosebumps down her back.
"So what do you want to do first?" she said nervously, rubbing the back of her neck with her free hand.
"How about some rides? They're always the best part!" he said. She nodded in agreement, and he took her off to some of his favorite ones. But Ginny thought the best ride of all was something called a ferris wheel.
"Oh my goodness!" she exclaimed. "Look! You can see the whole fair from here!" Harry chuckled at her amazement. When they got done riding most of the good rides there, Harry took her over to some game booths. Ginny became very frustrated with one of them. You had to shoot a jet of water into a frog's mouth, and if you were the first person to fill your frog's mouth first, you got a prize. Harry sat at the booth spending nearly five pounds, and winning all of his games. Ginny just didn't see how she did it.
"Winner!" the announcer yelled, pointing at Harry once again. "You get to pick from the top shelf this time, mister." The man said. Harry looked thoughtful for a moment, then said, "The Hungarian Horntail stuffed doll if you don't mind."
"Ah, that's a popular choice, that one. Is it for your little lady friend here?" the man gestured to Ginny.
"Actually we're not…"
"Yes it is." Ginny felt her face burn as all the other people standing around gave soft "awws." But she also felt a very happy feeling.
"Come on, we had better go find Ron," she said, tucking the stuffed dragon under her arm. Harry checked his watch.
"Yeah, I'm about to have to go. But were you guys planning on going to the team dinner with me?"
"Sure, we'd love to go." Ginny said brightly. She hadn't felt as happy as she did tonight in a long time. Soon they dragged Ron away from the food, and were getting ready to leave, when a voice called out.
"Harry! Honey, what are you doing here? I thought we were supposed to meet at the team dinner in a couple of hours?"
"Rats." Harry said under his breath. But then he turned around and gave a big bright smile to a tall, very pretty brunette woman. "Sophia, this is Ron and Ginny. We went to school together."
"Oh how wonderful! It is always nice to bump into old school friends!" she smiled brightly at them.
"How do you two know each other?" Ron asked curiously. Sophia turned a hurt, puppy dog look to Harry.
"You didn't tell them, sweetie?" she asked in a mock hurt voice. "Oh fine. I'll tell them then." Even though he looked uncomfortable, and tried to shush her, she continued on. "I'm his girlfriend!"
