Harry had Ginny in his arms; they had studied for the charms test last night. It was now Thursday morning, very early Thursday morning and Harry felt the absence of warmth. He then heard retching noises from the bathroom. He got up concerned.

"Ginny are you okay?" He ask.

When she didn't answer he went for the door. She was sitting haphazardly on the floor her head on the toilet seat.

"Merlin, Gin."

He quickly grabbed a rag and took it to the sink running cool water over it. He quickly went over to her and rubbed her back. Feeling her skin was burning he put his hand to her head. She had a fever. Harry put the cool cloth on her forehead and she welcomed the cooling relief.

Ginny never got sick, yet here she was with a fever. She was glad Harry was helping her but she knew she must look hideous. That thought quickly left her mind as her stomach flipped and she was ready to puke up what she had left. Harry held her hair and rubbed her back. She was spent. She hated being sick, she hated being weak. She stood up, splashed water on her face and grabbed her tooth brush making her breath minty fresh and Harry walked her back to bed. "Why don't I go to the hospital wing and get you something." Harry said as he was about to get up. "Then, they'll know!" Ginny said. "Oh please Gin, they already have to know half the school sleep with each other." Ginny knew Harry was right, and right now her head was killing her so she shook her head for him to go and she laid back in bed.

Harry got to the hospital wing seeing of course Professor Severus Snape.

"Do you ever sleep?" Harry ask.

Severus looked at the boy. "I do Mr. Potter, just not nearly enough; one of my duties is to help the hospital twice a month. I think you just find me at night or in class." Harry seemed to accept the answer.

"Well sir, I need a potion. Well not me really, see Ginny has a fever and I was wondering if you had anything. She's been throwing up and her skin is really hot. She looked horrible."

Severus just nodded and handed him an orange potion, and then a clear one. "The orange is to reduce her fever, and get rid of the pain, the clear is for her stomach. I'll be making a lot of that now." Harry smiled.

"You know, you'll be a great father, you're the only one second guessing." Harry boldly said.

"So I've heard Harry, so I've heard." Severus said. Harry was about to walk out "Oh by the way Harry 20 points from Griffindor, for opposite gender past hours."

Harry just shook his head and quickly got back to Ginny.

Harry found Ginny asleep on the bed so he didn't want to wake her. He looked over at the clock and knew he wouldn't be getting much sleep as long as Ginny was sick. So he took a book and tuned on a light and began to read. An hour later Ginny awoke she was way too hot and missing Harry's weight on the bed. She looked up at the light. Harry quickly grabbed the potions and gave Ginny half a bottle of each. She instantly relaxed and went to sleep. Harry took a deep breath and finally got to sleep.

The group had survived to the weekend. It was time for the Halloween costume party and dance. Ginny was pulling out the pieces of her costume that was in the bag she bought a few weeks ago. She first pulled out the white top that was a tight and the hem reached right above her belly button. Then she looked at the black lace up vest that would actually hit her hips hiding a lot of the flesh exposed by the shirt, but it still showed some from the string laced through it, the last thing that she got out was the skirt that was black and white striped and red around the waist it was a length a few inches above her knees and then she grabbed the eye patch fish nets. She was waiting on Hermione to dress up. Of course Hermione was in the library finishing up an essay that wasn't due until the following Wednesday. Ginny was ready to have a good time and this was the night she wanted to have sex with Harry Potter more than anything in the world. She needed him so bad she literally hurt to feel him inside her and after the last few days of fooling around his fingers weren't enough. She knew she had to tell Hermione of her plan, Ginny was unsure of the reaction she would get but she was hoping that Hermione would be okay with it.

Ron was in his room with Harry, both had totally forgotten they had to dress up for this thing tonight. Well neither actually forgot they just kept putting it off and now they were doomed. The girls would be furious if they didn't come up with an idea soon. The Halloween party was in an hour they could always go to the little muggle shop that Ron knew the girls got there outfits from. That was about the only thing he knew about the blasted costumes the girls had been so secretive like it was a Christmas present or something.

Harry and Ron hurried to the shop hoping something; anything was there in terms of a costume. When they walked through the doors they realized that they weren't the only guys to forget. Several of their classmates were crowded into the section that contained the bloody costumes. Ron just grabbed one not looking or caring and Harry did the same. Only when they got back to their room did they realize there mistakes. Harry had gotten a banana costume, and Ron well he had picked up a clown outfit complete with the extra-large slippers that fit over his shoes. They both laughed at each other until they realized they had to wear this.

"Really Ron, I got a banana! Yours can't be worse." Harry said as he heard a loud groan. Then when he looked over it was worse than being a banana. He had a big red nose on and his costume had a hoop making his waist look round and large.

Hermione returned to her room with little time to spare and Ginny was upset.

"Really Hermione, hurry up." she said as she took off her top to get into her outfit.

Hermione got her bag and pulled out the rather short skirt and white top. She pulled out the white hose and dug around for a pair of shoes that would complete her outfit. When she put on the skirt she realized it was slightly shorter than she thought. She then put on the top and felt a little mischievous and popped the top 3 buttons exposing a lot of cleavage but she wasn't close to falling out so she smiled and looked over at Ginny who was tying her vest.

"Hermione Granger, that is amazing!" she squealed. "Ron will enjoy the view!"

"Oh and Harry won't." Hermione said as she looked at Ginny's perfectly flat stomach and slight cleavage along with the fishnets.

"Mione, I think, I think I'm ready." Ginny said

"Well let me get my shoes on" Hermione replied.

"No I mean I'm ready to have sex with Harry." She whispered.

Hermione dropped the shoe she picked up. She turned her mouth on an O shape and took a deep breath.

"Are you sure?" Hermione ask.

"Yeah, I really just, need him. It's sort of weird it's like we never could be close enough. I just want to be with him."

"Well, be safe and I hope it's amazing, Ron and I aren't quite there, but you know the charms, if you want be extra careful I have condoms." Hermione blushed. She quickly went to the box and pulled a few out. Ginny rolled her eyes but took them. They then proceeded to the party.

When they arrived the boys were waiting for them and the girls roared in laughter at the sight of a banana and a clown in front of them. On the other hand Harry and Ron didn't notice because both girls were beautiful. It was the best day ever for Ron as he saw Hermione in a provocative outfit. Ginny didn't look to bad she was his sister and she could be a bit more covered but it wasn't as bad of some of the girls that had walked by leaving little to the imagination.

Harry gazed at Ginny and was amazed at the simple outfit but there was something about it that just made him want her. He couldn't believe how she looked. She was beautiful and then he looked at Hermione, she was, dare he think , sexy. Hermione Granger was hot, and he felt weird thinking that, not that he would want to be with her, but she looked really good and he was glad that girls embraced this holiday as much as they did. The rest of the evening involved snacks, drinks and envious stares. It was late before the foursome decided to leave.

Hermione grabbed Ron before he went toward his and Harry's room and led him to the girl's room instead. Ron smiled as he allowed her to lead the way. Ron instantly took off the outfit he was wearing glad he didn't have to be seen it anymore. He was quickly in a t-shirt and a pair of boxers. Hermione blushed at the sight it was now her turn to take in the view of the man she had been with all night. She wanted him to come over and touch her. She wanted his to kiss and drag his hands down her curves. Hermione shut her eyes and willed Ron to come over to her.

She was surprised when she opened her eyes to have him standing right beside her. She suddenly panicked yes she wanted him there like that and she wanted him to touch her and she was scared of what she was feeling. She was feeling content, like this was the most natural thing in the world and that scared the hell out of her. She wanted this for the future, not now. Hermione Granger had a pattern to life that Ronald Weasley was about to demolish with one single kiss.
