I don't think this is too sad…but then, I haven't written it yet, so I can't really say, can I? Anyway, the only thing I have to go on is the song, which, like the last one, is by Avril Lavigne. Here goes nothing! (And yeah, I know it's been a while since I've updated, but I've been busy…namely reading Deathly Hallows, which I finished doing today…yay me!)

Summary: These are Ginny's thoughts starting in PS and moving on into CoS…it's sort of AU, only to fit the song…meaning that some stuff didn't really happen, but most of it did.

Chapter 12

Unwanted

A ten-year-old Ginny found herself staring at her hero. She thought herself lucky that Harry Potter had come over to her family, when he could have asked anybody else how to get onto Platform 9 ¾. Gathering up her courage, she went up to him while her mum was busy with the rest of the family. She held out her hand.

"Hi. I'm Ginny Weasley." She smiled as he took her hand and shook it

"Hi. I'm Harry Potter."

All that I did was walk over
Start off by shaking your hands
That's how it went
I had a smile on my face and I sat up straight

He sort of gave a half grin back at her before going to join Ron in going through the wall.

"Come on, Ginny, dear," her mother said, ushering her through so they could say goodbye to everyone else.

"Mum, why can't I go?" she asked.

"Because, dear, you're still a year too young. You'll go next year."

Oh ya ya
I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you

Next year came, and with it came Harry, coming to her house. She didn't even know it until she came down asking for her jumper, and saw him sitting at the table. He said hi to her, but she ran back upstairs. She knew they'd be talking about her, Ron probably making fun of her in front of her idol. But this year would be different…this year, she'd be going to Hogwarts as well…this year, she could prove that she was worthy to be friends with the great Harry Potter, possibly even be his girlfriend later on…

Ginny shook her head. "No, that'll never happen," she told herself. "Why would someone as famous as him even think of going out with someone as plain as me?"

She realised as the school year came around that she was probably right. Harry never even once said "hello" to her in the hallway, and she knew that he saw her.

You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
You just shut me out

You don't know me
Don't ignore me
If you had your way
You'd just shut me up
Make me go away

She thought, come Valentine's Day, that if she sent him one of those singing Valentines provided by Professor Lockhart, he'd finally notice her, but she was wrong. He just seemed embarrassed about it, which made her more upset.

No I just don't understand why you
Won't talk to me
It hurts that I'm so unwanted
For nothing don't talk words against me

She started confiding even more in Tom Riddle, writing in his diary as much as she could.

I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you

You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
You just shut me out

You don't know me
Don't ignore me
If you had your way
You'd just shut me up
Make me go away

Without really knowing what happened, she woke up one day to find herself deep within some sort of Chamber. She realised almost instantly that this was the Chamber of Secrets. She couldn't move, wasn't able to do anything except lie there and feel helpless.

I tried to belong
It didn't feel wrong
My head aches
It's been so long
I'll write this song
If that's what it takes

You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
You just shut me out

You don't know me
Don't ignore me
If you had your way
You'd just shut me up
Make me go away

You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
You just shut me out

You don't know me
Don't ignore me
If you had your way
You'd just shut me up
Make me go away

Ginny woke up again and looked around. She was still in the Chamber, but something was different. Tom Riddle was gone, his diary had a huge hole in it, and another look around told her why. She saw the Basilisk's fang in Harry's hand, although she didn't know what it was, and found that she could move again.

She tried desperately to explain everything that happened to Harry, but he seemed to already know. When she realised that it was he who had saved her, she smiled. She knew now, somehow, that she wouldn't be ignored again…and probably never let outside the house when her mother found out what happened.

End

Yeah, I know. It wasn't my best one, but then I didn't have much to work with. I'm thinking of starting one of these for Danny Phantom. If any of you guys like Danny Phantom, and have any songs that might work for anything in there, feel free to tell me, and I'll try to use the song if I can.
