Note: Hey just lettin' y'all know that the characters belong to Miss Rowling and the song belongs to Kevn Cronin of REO Speedwagon. The song is "Can't Fight This
Feeling Anymore" I love this song!!






Harry not really being able to sleep decided to maybe go read down in the Gryfindor common room. He threw on some old sweats and grabbed "Hogwarts, a History," surely that would make him tired. Plus it might make Hermione happy that he was finally reading it after seven years of her nagging.

Harry laughed silently as he remembered the summer with Weasley's. Ron tried desperatly to get through the book just so he could impress Hermione. Not that he would admit that that was why he was reading it. I guess that was part of the reason that Harry couldn't sleep... Ron and Hermione. He wasn't jealous of their growing closer and closer, at least not that Ron got to be with Hermione. He was more jealous of the friendship they shared. He didn't have that with anyone, he never had. He remembered bitterly last year when he and Cho tried a go at it. They just fought a lot and became pretty resentful of eachother before they called it quits.

He slumped down on his bed. And then thre was Ginny. He remembered for so long how she had a crush on him. It was only this summer that she was able to start talking to him without turning red. They even had some pretty pleasant converstations. It kind of gave him a shock when he started noticing little things about her, like how she bit her lip when she was thinking hard or how she smelled like lilacs when he sat next to her. He started to feel a little tingly feeling when she would laugh at his jokes. All these things even scared him a little. I mean come on this is Ron's little sister, even kind a like mine. He sighed then stood up with his book and made his way down the steps.

((I can't fight this feelin' any longer
And yet I'm fraid to let it flow
What started out as friendship has grown stronger
I only wish I had the strength to let it flow))

Coming down the steps he noticed that the fire had goon out in the common room, yet there was a soft glow of a candle coming from a table. He looked to see who was over there, but something by the window caught his eye. His breath caught in his chest as he realized it was Ginny who was looking out into the winter night sky. He watched her close her eyes as if she were thinking of something. He thought she looked beautiful standing there. Her red hair and pale skin glowed in the soft moonlight.

"I can't do this," he thought. "She's my best friends little sister. He would kill me if... Wait a minute no he wouldn't. He'd probably be happy. I have no reason to fear these feelings I have for Ginny."

((I tell myself that I can't hold out forever
I say there is no reason for my fear
Cus you make me feel so secure when we're together
You give my life direction, you make everything so clear.))

Just coming down here and seeing her like this has made Harry realize his feelings. His feelings had started growing for Ginny since the beginning of last summer, he was just now fining this out. He couldn't fight how he felt any longer, he couldn't lie to himself. Yet he was still feeling so confused.

((And even as I wander I'm keeping you in sight
You're a candle in the window on cold dark winter's night
And I'm getting' closer then I ever thought I might
And I can't fight this feelin' anymore
I've forgotten what I've started fightin' for
It's time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars forever))

He noticed that she had left the window and was starting to put her things away. He saw the way she looked, so sad and lonely. He wished he could go over and help her in some why. But how could he do that, now that he know about his feelings for her, how could he react around her. He remembered how he first acted around Cho, like a complete moron. But still he wanted to reach out to her, he would have given anything if he could have found the guts to go to her right now.

((No I can't fight this feelin' anymore
I've forgoten what I've started fighting for
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Or come crashin' through your door
Baby I can't fight this feeling anymore))

He watched her climb the stairs to her dormitory, his book forgotten in his hand. He couldn't even remember why he was really even here in the common room. He turned around and when back to his dormitory. He made his way to his bed and laid down, feeling a bit confused. His thoughts were racing around in his head. Ginny, he loved Ginny. After all these years it was her that he wanted to be with. Upon further reflection on it, he knew he couldn't really love her. It was just his mind telling him that he wanted love and she was the first person she saw. Yes that was it... but still... he couldn't forget how he felt when she laughed at his jokes. And what was it all about down in the common room he knew when he saw her that he loved her. No... she was his best friends sister, even sort of a little sister to him. Yet... "NO." he thought to himself. "I can't think about this any longer. I need sleep." He closed his eyes but he only saw Ginny's face.

((My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you
I've been runnin' 'round in circles in my mind
And it always seems that I'm followin you girl
Cus you take me places that alone I'd never find.
And even as I wander I'm keeping you in sight
You're a candle in the windo on a cold dark winters night
And I'm getting' closer than I ever thought I might))

He opened his eyes, thinking how crazy he was. This was Ginny... little Ginny, the girl he had to save from Tom riddle five years ago. Little Ginny, who had the biggest crush on him forever. He now had the biggest crush on her. But somehow he knew it was more than just a crush. He loved her. He couldn't hide it, but he had to from her... and Ron... and Hermione. He just couldn't let them know at least not yet anyway. These emotions were too new, too raw. He would just have to act normal. "Yes," he thought, "normal." Those were his last thoughts before his sleep engulfed him.

((And I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I've started fighting for
It's time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars forever
No I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I've started fightin' for
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Come crashing through your door
Baby I can't fight this feeling anymore))
