Order of the Phoenix
Chapter Five
Thankfully they arrived at Hogwarts unharmed and completely in tact. Hermione grabbed Harry's arm as they were about to leave the compartment and said "Ron, Ginny go get a carriage, I have to tell Harry something quick, we'll be right behind you."
Ginny looked at Harry with horror in her eyes that they'd be apart long enough for something to happen, but Harry kissed her quickly and said, "Don't worry, I'm right behind you"
With that Ginny and Ron left to get a carriage and Harry looked at Hermione, "What is it? Say it quick I don't want Ginny to worry too much, we need to catch up with them."
"Harry I heard Cho when I was listening to Dumbledore earlier. She was practically begging him to let her see you, if I'm guessing right Ginny has competition, and she remembers that you liked her Harry. I just wanted to make sure you knew, because she's probably standing outside the train waiting for you."
Whether she was or not didn't matter, Dumbledore came in, took Harry's arm, told Hermione to take the other and not to let go until they reached the carriage Ginny and Ron had saved for them. Cho tried to say hi to Harry, but Dumbledore simply told her, "I said at Hogwarts Miss Chang, not outside of Hogwarts, you'll have to wait this is simply a safety precaution. Dumbledore climbed into the carriage behind Hermione and Harry and closed the door.
Harry by now had enough of this treatment and shouted, "Dumbledore, what is going on around here? I've faced Voldemort time after time and I've always come out fine, even when I was a baby, so why is it that I have two chaperone's every time I do anything?"
"Harry it's for your own protection, this time is different, remember the protection charm you mother placed on you before she was killed by giving up her own life has been broken now that he has your blood within him. Unfortunately many of the spells I had cast to protect you were starting to fail as well, and Arabella said she just couldn't keep trying to throw Voldemort off, she's been busier than I have protecting you these past few weeks Harry. Now you're in Hogwarts though and more than myself have cast spells to protect you this time, the entire Order of the Phoenix has cast spells preventing anyone who isn't a student at Hogwarts that is currently enrolled, or a professor can not get inside of Gryffindor Tower. We added Sirius to the list of professors used during the enchantment so that he would be able to get inside. Now please calm down, you won't be escorted as closely as before now that we're here."
Ginny grabbed Harry's hand as they started to get out, Dumbledore quickly made his way inside to see that the last details of the Feast and ceremony were completed. Ginny and Harry got out next, Harry stopping to help Ginny out. Ginny slipped and Harry caught her as she fell, and Harry fell backwards as he rushed to catch her. He ended up on his back with her on top of him. She smiled and kissed him gently before getting up. Inside the carriage they could vaguely hear Ron and Hermione talking. And then they heard Ron say "Will you go with me to the Yule Ball this year?"
Hermione giggled and said "Of course I will Ron. I was going to ask you if you didn't ask me this year."
Ginny and Harry smiled at each other, "Well Ginny, sounds like we're not the only ones getting close this year!" They both laughed and kissed before starting to head in. Ron helped Hermione down from the carriage and they caught up with Ginny and Harry who were walking slowly towards the entrance hand in hand. "Harry! Harry wait a minute!"
They turned around to see Cho Chang running up behind them to catch up with them. And they could already feel the tension mounting. "Hi Cho", Harry said quickly.
"Harry I've got to talk to you about something alone really quick", Cho said looking nervous once she realized that Ginny was holding hands with Harry.
Ginny looked extremely uneasy, Harry realized she didn't like the idea of him going off with her when they hadn't been together all that long and he did use to like her. Harry kissed Ginny's cheek and whispered in her ear "Don't worry Ginny, I'm with you."
Ginny smiled at Harry as he walked away with Cho and yelled out, "We'll save you a seat Sweetums!"
Hermione and Ron laughed while Harry blushed. Ron grabbed Ginny's arm, "Come on Ginny, let's get inside. You aren't nervous about him talking to Cho are you?"
"Ron how could you blame me, he practically worshiped her last year."
"Alright you two how about these four seats? This way we can great the new Gryffindors," Hermione interrupted quickly.
Harry and Cho watched everyone else go inside the castle, and Harry was starting to lose his patience. "What do you want to talk to me about Cho?"
Cho stalled for a second and said quickly, "Harry will you go with me to the Yule Ball this year? I felt so badly that I had already said yes to Cedric last year. I liked him a lot Harry, but I've always liked you too. So, do you want to?"
Harry looked at her for a minute, and then said, "Cho I'm with Ginny now. I'm planning on taking her to the Yule Ball. I'm sorry Cho."
Cho didn't say anything, she just walked away and up to the sorting ceremony. Harry walked inside quickly, and sat down next to Ginny. They had missed two people getting sorted, one to Slytherin and one to Ravenclaw. Ginny leaned over to Harry and whispered, "What did she want?"
Harry smiled, "Nothing important Ginny. Don't worry about it, I'm with you now and that's just the way that I want it to be."
Ginny smiled and kissed his cheek. They watched the rest of the sorting ceremony quietly holding hands. Hermione reached back and took Ron's hand too. Which made Ginny giggle away, and unfortunately for Ron, Fred and George noticed. They made fun of him the rest of the night over holding hands with a girl. When they got back to the dormitory, Harry and Ginny went up to his room to bring Sirius something to eat. Everyone else was in the common room talking about their vacations. When he walked up Sirius was sitting on Harry's bed, with the invisibility cloak beside him incase he needed it. They talked about the day, and than Harry left to walk Ginny to the girl's dormitory. They kissed goodnight, and he practically ran back to ask Sirius for advice on how to ask Ginny to the Yule Ball.
