Chapter Seven: When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears

Ginny could hear footsteps behind her but, she was just to light and fast. Tears run and spilled behind her…

Tom, you're so cruel. I hate you.

I know you hate me, Ginny. You loved me enough to hate me. You know you still do. You love me… And you're mine.

Stop! Leave me alone! After all of this, I'm not going anywhere near you! Ever!

She continued to dash, still, tears falling from her face. Ginny's heart pounded inside her.

You are near me. You always were. Don't try to forget that my little Ginny.

What is it that you really want? Why are you doing this to me? You're…you're… you're not real!

"Ginnywait, please!"

Why do you think I should wait for you?

"Ginny, wait! Please!" a voice shouted just behind her. "Just stop… You have to stop."

Ginny stopped and whirled around, only to find Harry's very grim face.

"And since when did you start to care for me, Harry?" Ginny snapped.

"Ever since I met you." was all that Harry said.

"Stop it. Don't you say those things… I…"

And then Ginny broke down.

"Oh Harry, what am I going to do? H-he's here. You know it. H-he's been here. He didn't leave me alone. You didn't kill him back there. I tried to ignore him. I really did but… I always see his face you know. And I'm… I' just so sorry…" confessed Ginny, tears falling down from her eyes. She stood there in front of Harry like some lost child. She didn't want all of these to happen, she just wanted to be understood.

She closed her eyes, unwilling to see his face, and unwilling to admit her shame. She suddenly felt… warm. She opened her eyes only to find Harry hug her, soothing her every pain like she always wanted. His hands soothing her trembling while her head rested on his shoulders, she could just feel Harry's clothes get wet with her tears.

"Why? What are you trying to say, Gin? Tom disappeared, together with his diary remember? He's just a memory, Gin. Fight him. You can't just let him control you." She heard Harry.

"I'm… trying Harry. You defeated him back there but… He's is just a memory… He is. He found another way to come back…" she finally said it. Harry's body froze.

Ginny untangled herself from Harry's arms, feeling ashamed of having to be comfort while she knew somewhere, her friend was in danger.

"A-and now he's got Luna! I'm…. I'm just so sorry…. I shouldn't have meddled with things I wasn't really allowed to deal with."

"What are you trying to say, Gin?" Harry finally asked, he kept hold of Ginny's shoulders even though she tried to get away. He never would've believed that right now… Two Tom Riddles are out lose, be it a memory or a real thing.

"H-he… when you defeated him back there, he spoke to me… Just one last time that year… He said… He'd never leave me." Ginny dropped her head, she looked away. "I… I never believed him, Harry. Every night when I sleep, I have dreams, I have these sort of nightmares and I thought it's just ordinary ones but now… they're all starting to come back to me and they sort of go… real. I.. dreamed of this before. Tom played with my feelings, he knew…"

"Knew what Gin?"

"I…." Ginny didn't have the power to say these things now. She just wanted to find her friend. She felt selfish being here, while her friend was out there. I have to, this may well be the last time…She looked up at him and spoke… "I love you."

They stood there in silence. Ginny looked at Harry's eyes and saw it filled with mixed emotions. She waited and waited for him to say things she'd always wanted to hear, but it seems like there wasn't.

I told you he didn't love you Ginny… You just have to get over it. There was nothing going on back in that accursed compartment. He's playing you out. And the he finally realized you're just like his sister.

Ginny broke the silence, unwilling to admit the truth from Tom's words. "I… have to go. Harry."

"Gin… You can't." Harry's hands left her shoulders a while ago. But Ginny soon found out those would just end up at her hands too. Harry held on to her hands tightly and asked… "Are you sure about that? Gin…"

He's playing you out Virginia. Just go. You're friend is waiting. I'm waiting.

"I… I'm sure Harry. But if you don't feel the same way as I do… It's… I guess it's okay." Ginny's mind wasn't functioning at all right there. "I... have to go. Please, Harry, just let go of me. Luna… she could be hurt, Harry. I can't let Tom hurt her."

"No, Gin. Stay. He's not here. He's just a memory. Ignore him." Harry implored, tightening his hands. "We have to go to Dumbledore and ask him about this. For all we know Luna's fine." Harry knew that Luna isn't fine at all, he have to calm Ginny so he could deal with Tom by himself. He wouldn't let anything happen to him. "Whatever he says… Ignore him… If you don't he'll try to hurt you again. I can't allow that, Gin…"

"But Harry… He is hurting me. He's playing out my feelings can't you understand? I tried ignoring him but… what he said… it's so… true… All of it." Ginny's eyes filled with tears again. "You… I'm sorry I said all of these things Harry. Forget what I said. I… I guess Tom's right."

"What did he say to you? Gin…"

"Harry, please. Just let go! He's here, okay? I don't want to talk about these things anymore… I love you… but you don't love me back, I understand. That's it. So please let me go." Ginny tried to pry her hands away but was shocked when Harry pulled her back into his arms.

"Don't believe him. He's wrong. Don't let him control you again, Gin… Don't believe him… He's lying." She heard Harry, his arms unwilling to let her go. "He's wrong Gin… I do love you… I've been trying to say this to you but… for some reasons I found that I can't. You'll be in a lot more trouble. Voldemort would take you away, just like what he did to my parents, to Sirius, to my life. You'd be hurt. I just let Ron and Hermione be one of his main targets but… I can't let him find out about this… I don't know what he'd do to you… But now, he's already trying to hurt you through Tom… There's just no going back now. So please Gin, whatever he tries to say, ignore him. I'll find a way to stop him. I promise."

"H-Harry... You… we can't stop Tom. I can't. He… he's inside me, Harry."

Harry finally looked at her, miserable and all. "What do you mean…?"

"He's inside my mind, Harry. Ever since you defeated him. He found a way. He left the diary and instead went to me. I… I said I'd ignore him, but you know, I can't. The nightmares, the dreams, his voice, they're just there. He's been plaguing me these years and I tried to ignore him. But when that Dark Mark appeared…"

"Gin, you know as well as the rest of us do that some Junior Death Eater could've conjured that."

"No, Harry." Ginny looked tense now. "I conjured that."

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
