SWEET SIXTEEN

- Part 11 : Romantic week end

Lying on Ginny's bed, Harry was watching her. She had her eyes closed and was breathing slowly but, yet, she wasn't sleeping. Harry was amazed by Ginny's beauty. She wasn't the most beautiful girl in the world, he wasn't even sure she could be a model, but for him she was simply the most gorgeous girl he had ever seen. He felt incredibly lucky to hold her in his arms. After a month of being apart, he only wished to remain with her all night long. They had not made love, they had only talked about the last weeks. Both loved to be just near each other.

Ginny turned to him, still not opening her eyes, she smiled to him. She knew he was watching her. She felt so good in his arms. She sighed happily. Harry was smiling back at her. How could just one person make another person so happy ? Harry noticed how nice it was to love and to be loved back. He wondered also how he could be so deeply in love with someone. He was young but had never felt so old. But it was definitely the best feeling he had ever had.

"What do you think about having a week end out of Hogwarts ?"

She yawned. "What do you mean by 'out of Hogwarts'?"

He brushed her hair with his left hand. "I don't know... Maybe we could have a romantic week end elsewhere than this cold old castle."

She chuckled. "You love that cold old castle, Harry."

He leaned to her. "It's true, but I think I love you mo..."

Ginny put a finger on his mouth. "Ssshhh... " And she kissed him slowly.

Harry felt confused. Ginny had just cut him off. He quickly thought she maybe wasn't as much in love as he was. Maybe... But he didn't care, the kiss was full of love enough to make him forget about this foolishness. He extended the kiss to make her fully understand he wasn't ready to let her go another time.

Later in the night, they awaked at the sound of Ginny's roommates, coming to sleep. None of them was surprised to see the couple on Ginny's bed.

"Gosh, I wish it was me." One of the girls said.

Ginny and Harry heard another girl laughing, they looked at each other. They kissed again and Harry tried to get up off the bed. Ginny held him back with her two arms around his neck. She whispered to his ear: "Try to do something about this week end."

He kissed her hand, letting her go. He winked at her "Ok."

Ginny threw herself back on her bed. Two seconds later, she was surrounded by her roommates. "What ?" She said, blushing.

"Ginny ! I can't believe you're so lucky !"

She smiled dreamily. "Yes, I am."

"Hey, Earth to Ginny ! You know that someone downstairs is ready to kill you both..."

Still smiling, Ginny didn't really realise what her roommates were trying to tell her.

"Ginny !"

"Mhm ?"

"Did you hear what I just said?"

"Mhm."

"Janelle, let her alone, you can see she totally doesn't care about that bitch..."

And yes, Ginny didn't care at all about that Milla. that girl wasn't worth thinking about or that girl wasn't worth the trouble.

The next morning, Harry joined Ron in the common room.

"I guess you already had your breakfast."

"Yes, I did." Ron answered. "You know, Hermione is a very good cook. Well, not as good as my mother... My mother is a perfect cook... But still, I can see Hermione is doing her best."

Harry nodded. "Well, just come but don't eat."

And both headed to Great Hall. The way Harry had punched William the evening before was on every Gryffindor's mind. The girls especially had found that very romantic.... Fight for his lost love... But if he was now a romantic hero, he was also a student who had fought another student. As soon as he met Professor McGonagall in the Great Hall, he heard the words "Detention on Friday night."

"Ron, I need you." Harry asked, a glass of pumpkin juice in his hand.

"How can I help?" Ron replied, taking a slice of buttered toast. He just couldn't resist…

"I kind promised… Just to spend two days in a row…"

"I see..."

"And I was wondering, hum, if it was possible... to... hum, as you already have a flat..."

Ron opened his mouth before Harry finished. "Oh, no !"

Harry wasn't surprised. He had already thought of a way … He had just begun…. He has just begun, but Ron firmly answered "No".

"Come on, Ron ! You know how it is !"

"Yes ! I know how it is ! That's why I don't want to lend you the flat."

"Ron ! Please !"

"No ! I just can't imagine you two in my flat !"

"We really need to be alone."

"Listen, I know what it's like to be alone… ARGH !" Ron took an air of disgust.

"Hey, I'm not talking about sex !"

"Harry..."

"And even if there was some sex, you..."

"AH ! Don't talk about having sex with my sister ok ?"

Harry opened wide his eyes. "You don't want to hear about me having sex with your sister ? But then " Harry began to laugh " Do you know how many times you talk to me about you having sex with Hermione ?"

"That's not the point..."

"Hermione and you are my two best friends, can you imagine what I'm thinking when you talk to me about you two in the shower ?"

Harry laughed harder and then quickly went quiet when he heard a familiar laugh. Ron and Harry turned to that person and saw Ginny amused by what she just heard.

The two boys were quite vexed about her laughing.

"Uh ! That's true, I can't imagine you both in the shower..." She said looking at her brother.

She felt a hand on her shoulder. She quickly turned to the person whose hand had just scared her.

"Uh ! Professor McGonagall."

"Miss Weasley."

Then Ginny felt terribly awkward. "Yes, professor ?"

"I heard about what you did yesterday evening. I believe you owe me an explanation."

"I... Milla Lendle cast a spell on Harry and I to break us up…"

"Jealousy will only get you into trouble."

"That wasn't jealousy ! It was mo...".

"Miss Weasley, you have detention on Friday night. Be there or your house will lose 50 points."

Professor McGonagall leaned her head over Ginny's shoulder. "Mr Potter !" Harry jumped out of his chair in surprise. "Remember, you have detention, too."

She looked from Ginny to Harry "I won't tolerate violence from my students."

As soon as her professor left, Ginny sat at the table, at Harry's side. He put his arm around his shoulder. She said to her brother : "And you told us she was cool because she let Hermione and you live outside Hogwarts...."

He smiled : "I'm not the one who breaks rules here... And Hermione would never fight..."

Ginny didn't smile back. "I'm not sure... Girls act very strange when they're jealous..."

Harry looked at her "I thought it wasn't about jealousy..."

She winked at him "Well, maybe, a little..."

Harry leaned to kiss her. "I love yo..."

"Hermione !"

Harry felt rejected by Ginny. That was what Ginny did every time he wanted to tell her he loved her.

Hermione headed for her three friends and quickly said to Ron, as she sat down next to him. "You could have waited for me..."

"Hermione, you were in the shower... You always take an hour for your shower..."

Ginny laughed "even if Ron isn't in there with you ?".

Hermione looked puzzled. Ron brought his fist down on the table. "Can we not talk about that?"

"You told them about the shower ?"

Ron didn't know how to answer that. He was frankly surprised by Hermione's tone... Like she didn't care to talk about it. "Mhm... only Harry... but Ginny showed up and then..."

Hermione smiled to her not so confident boyfriend. "It's okay, Ron..."

"You're not mad at me ?"

"Why I should be honey ?" And Hermione kissed gently Ron, who felt more impressed every day by his girlfriend.

Harry knew that after that scene, Ron would just keep telling him to notice how his girlfriend is comfortable about sex. But Harry wasn't jealous, for Harry thought Ginny was the best girlfriend ever... If only she could stop interrupting him when he was telling her his feelings for her...

In potions, Ron whispered to Harry : " It's ok..."

Harry raised his eyes to his friends.

Ron continued "for you and Ginny this week end... at our flat..."

Harry felt his heart jumping in his chest... Finally, he could spend a whole week end with Ginny. He couldn't wait to tell her the news.

"Thanks Ron !"

"You're welcome..."

It wasn't a great sacrifice for Ron to lend Harry his flat. He had planned to take Hermione in London for a romantic week end. He knew Hermione would love the idea. She as a girl, and even if she was bossy, she still remained a romantic girl, he knew that.

Harry didn't tell Ginny the news during the rest of the week. He wanted it to be a surprise. He had planned to tell her during their detention with McGonagall. But things didn't happen the way he expected.

"At Hermione and Ron's ?" Ginny let out.

Harry took her hand. "Well, yes... Then, we could be all alone for the week end..."

"Harry... But, hum, I don't want to be rude, I like my brother very much, and also Hermione, but spending a week end with them isn't very romantic you know... We'll have to sleep on the couch..."

Harry tried to make her stop. "No, no ! We'll be alone, just the two of us...."

Ginny smiled at the idea. It shouldn't be bad. The flat for only Harry and her.

"But where Hermione and Ron will go then ?"

Harry gave a winning smile. "Don't worry. I made arrangements with Ron. He's taking Hermione to London for a romantic weekend."

Ginny gasped in horror. "What ?"

Harry wondered where he could have gone wrong.

"They're going to London..."

Ginny took her hand from Harry's, crossed her arms on her chest and began to sulk. Just then, Professor McGonagall came back into the room. Harry sank into his chair. What was she trying to do ? Make him sad ? Well, she had succeeded…

After a half hour, McGonagall said : "Time is up, you can leave."

Harry had to run after Ginny. He grabbed her arm and squeezed it a little harder he had wished. "What is it with you ?"

"What do you mean?"

"I don't understand !"

"You don't understand what ?"

"Everything ! Aren't you happy that we could both spend a week end together ?"

"Yes, I am... But... Ron takes Hermione to London, and you take me to... Hogsmeade ??? Wow, lucky me !"

Harry felt very angry. They didn't see things the same way.

"You're acting like a spoiled child !"

Harry's words hurt her, more than she could bear. "What ?" She said, leaning against the wall.

He approached her. "You just... I... Every time I tell you I love you, you just act like if you didn't care !"

"That's not true !" Her voice trembled.

"Yes it is ! You just did it twice today. I thought you would be happy to get back together with me... You seemed happy last night..."

She began to cry... She felt sad...

"I was Harry..."

"You aren't anymore ?" He touched her cheek, wiping away her tears.

"Yes, I am... I'm... I'm scared..."

He then put his two hands around her neck, still caressing her cheeks with his thumbs.

"You don't have to be scared." He whispered into her ear. And then he kissed it.

She sighed.

"I will always be there for you."

"That's what scares me..." She managed to say while he was kissing her neck. "Your feelings for me..."

He looked into her eyes. She continued "My feelings for you..."

He put one of his hands under her robe. "And we're too young..."

"YES !" She said louder than she wanted to say it. But Harry knew her body by heart, and knew where to touch her, where she would be the most sensitive to his caresses.

He kissed her lips. She still wasn't kissing him back. He kissed her nose, her cheeks, her neck, and right at her ear, he whispered in the lowest tone of his voice, which he knew would make her forget her fears : "I don't want to share you with London... I don't want to visit London... I want to visit your soul... your body..." He tried her lips again. She finally kissed him back...

She pushed him away from her, catching her breath... "Ok ! I get your point !"

She jumped into his arms wrapping her legs around him. "I'll follow you anywhere you want."
