Alone – Chapter one

Loving you

Chapter one - Alone

You get to a certain age, you fall in love, and you have a girlfriend, and everything is perfect.

This is the way things happen, isn't it? This is how things are supposed to happen, right?

And maybe yes, maybe things are supposed to happen this way. But things never happen the way they are supposed to.

Harry couldn't help it not to feel that everyone in the world, aside from him were in couples: Ron & Hermione, Dean & Parvati, Ginny had a boyfriend from her grade, Lavender & Justin, Seamus had a Ravenclaw girlfriend, Malfoy had a girlfriend too, and even Neville had a girlfriend.

Everyone seemed to have a girlfriend. Everyone except from Harry, that is.

And he felt so lonely, even lonelier wen his two best friends didn't have very much time for him.

And about Cho Chang, Harry gave her up a long time ago.

He understood that she didn't love him, and frankly, he wasn't so sure that he loved her.

But that didn't matter anymore.

Not when he finds himself thinking of someone else, every second, every minute, every hour, every day.

Not when he finds himself staring at her, whenever he gets the chance to.

Not when he is daydreaming about her all the time.

Not when he is in love with Ginny.

Harry couldn't believe what a damn luck he had.

To fall in love with Ginny, a second after she gave him up.

A hand moved before his eyes and cut off his line of thoughts.

Harry looked aside, and saw Hermione gazing him a worried gaze

"Harry are you ok? You didn't touch your food "

Harry glanced down at his plate- it was full with potatoes, hot-dogs, pork ribs and more stuff that didn't stimulant Harry's appetite.

"a.. I'm fine Herm, not hungry, that's all"

Hermione didn't believe him, she explore his expression for a minute and then side:

"you know that if something is bothering you, you can tell me, right?"

He side and tried to smile at her. "Hermaione, I'm ok, Really"

Then he mumbled something about homework, and left the great hall.

Harry was on his way to the Gryffindor common room when he bumped into something. And then, when this something said 'argh', he realized it was someone.

He removed his gaze off the floor and saw Ginny standing in front of him, and some books thrown beside her. He hoped very much that he wasn't blushing.

He said, ducking to pick up the books from the floor, "I'm sorry, Ginny"

"I was lost in thoughts, and wasn't paying attention to where I was going."

He gave her the pile of books, smiling at her a sheepish smile.

"oh, it's okay, Harry She said, taking the books off his hands and blushing a little.

I wasn't paying too much attention to where I was going either.""

She walked away, and Harry just stayed there, thinking how extremely beautiful she looked that night.
