I own nothing. Yep. I'm a starving college student. I really own nothing. Chapter two - Back at Hogwarts

A few weeks had passed and the famous trio was now joined by a fourth. Ginny seemed to have finally gotten over her silly obsession with Harry. Instead she had moved on to something else. Ever since the group went to see The Phantom of the Opera, Ginny had been unable to focus on anything else. Her grades were still fine, but all she talked about was Erik, the "star" of the tale. "Hermoine, do you think Erik would have ever joined with you-know-who?"

"Ginny, stop!" Ginny tried to interrupt, but Hermione grabbed her and shook her, "No! Just stop. Back away from the book." Hermione was referring to the copy of the Phantom novel Ginny always carried around with her. Harry and Ron laughed. Not only was it funny to hear Hermione tell someone else to STOP reading, but it was exactly what they had wanted to do for a while now.

Ginny was simply too much for them. If they heard another thing about the Phantom, they were sure their heads were going to split! "Damn, Ginny, couldn't you just go back to liking Harry?!?"said Hermione. Ginny obviously had not lost her embarrassment when it came to Harry. But this time, she got angry instead of blushing. "I am so sick of you guys! Whenever I find something I can like and I actually relate to, all you do is make fun of me and throw it in my face. I'm sorry Harry, but compared to Erik, you're nothing! Even with that silly little scar and all your adventures!" She yelled this at all of them, then stormed out of the common room. "Whoa! What did I do?" said Harry to Ron and Hermione. "I didn't even say anything!" "Don't worry, she's just a little touchy about this new thing. I think she really is over you though." Ron told him.

"Well, that's good." thought Harry. He never liked how she idolized him. It was nice having someone like him in THAT way, even if he only thought of her as a friend. "Hermione, I think that maybe you should go apologize to her." said Harry. "What, don't you guys feel the same way? Well, maybe Harry doesn't want her to keep liking him, but aren't you sick of it all? Isn't it kind of sick being so infatuated with someone who doesn't even exist?"

"Herm, just do it, okay?" said Ron. The last thing he needed was an owl from is mom saying that he needed to be nicer to his little sister. Hermione got up and huffed, "Fine, maybe she's in the library. I need to go there anyway." "Yeah right, whatever. and you think she's obsessed!" laughed Ron.

"So, anyway, isn't it a little weird the way your sister's been acting lately?" said Harry. "Nah. it's just her weird way of getting over you. When Penelope broke up with Percy he got so into collecting and categorizing Bernie Botts Every-Flavor Beans that mum reckons he nearly got them all. until Fred and George got hungry and stumbled into his room, that is! All that was left was booger, mold and vinegar!" "Well, okay, but you Weasley's need to be a little more .. Normal!"

"Are you really worried about her Harry? I mean, you don't like her or anything do you? That'd be a little weird." "No! I don't like her. I just feel like I'm the reason she's acting funny!" "Well. you are, but don't take it personal. she's always been a little odd!" "okay. I guess.listen, I'm hungry, it's about time to get dinner anyway... let's go down awhile." "okay, said Ron, "But I'm taking my potions homework with me. Maybe Hermione can help." They both left the common room. Harry was secretly hoping that they would eat early so he wouldn't have to run into Ginny.
