Ginny had shut the book after that. There was simply no more to say.
Could it be that he liked her? She was old enough to be his younger sister.
In fact, he was just a year older than her brother Percy. Of course, fifty
years alone in a diary… Ginny couldn't blame Tom for being lonely. To him
five years was nothing. Tom had suffered loneliness forever. He'd never
known anything else. He spent his life in a orphanage, not even with people
with magical powers, such as himself. He never knew his parents, or even
any one new at all.
She knew she'd never be as romantically involved with him as she constantly daydreamed about, but still she had to wonder just what it would be like. It was still early, and she decided to go down to the Common Room.
Colin was there.
"Ginny! I was wondering. . ."
"ARGH! I said NO, Colin! NO, I will NOT go out with you!"
And she stormed off back to her room.
"I just wanted to know the time." He muttered to himself.
Hello Ginny.
Tom! I didn't know you knew when I opened the diary.
You learn something new everyday, as my friend at the orphanage told me.
Awww. . . Tom. . .
It's alright.
Tom. . . about yesterday. . .
Yes?
I don't know how to handle it.
I thought you liked me.
I do!
Then there's your answer, Ginny. There's nothing wrong with it. Unless there's something wrong with me. Is there?
No!
Good. Then what's wrong, Ginny?
It's just I've never been in the situation before.
I know. Ginny, I know, I have to take care of you. Ginny, I love you.
Love?
Yes, Ginny, love.
But Tom! It can't be. . . love is such a strong word!
I'm aware of that.
I thought you only just liked me.
Oh no, Ginny, I love you. I want you. I need you.
Ginny was utterly surprised and overwhelmed at this. Was it love she had for him?
Tom, there's no way you could.
I could prove it to you.
How?
Oh, you'll see.
A/N: Okay, I must brutally stop. By the way 'Gryffindorqueen' is my best friend. And it's 'nothing she hasn't heard' because she happens to know what is going to happen. Isn't that right, Danielle? And so does Kelly Malfoy, but do NOT email her for secrets. Be a good reader and review. BYE!
