Chapter 3: I'm sorry Neville.
Hermione looked at Ginny fondly one last time. "Are you sure you're ready for this?" she asked.
"As ready as I'll ever be. Gosh! I don't know how to break up with someone!" she said, sitting down.
"Hey. Hey. Just remember what we went through. You love Harry. If you have a doubt about what you're doing, just repeat that to yourself and you can do this, ok?" She asked Ginny.
Ginny nodded sadly, and finished putting in her earring in, and making sure her belt was in place. She took a deep breathe, said good bye to Hermione and left the older girls' dormitory and walked down into the Gryffindor common room where she saw Harry and Ron playing 'Exploding Snap'. Then she looked over to where Neville was glaring into the fire place, and she walked by Ron and kissed him on the forehead.
"Hey, Lil sis! Have fun on your date tonight," he snickered. Harry looked almost jealous for a moment, but then he laughed out loud when Ron made a wrong move in the game.
"Bye Harry," she whispered walking past him, getting shivers down her spine and her pulse quickened slightly. She calmed herself down and walked up to Neville. "You ready?" she asked.
He nodded his head, and she took another deep breath. This was going to be so hard. How could she break such a loving heart? Oh yeah. She loved Harry. That's how. And even if Harry didn't care about her, then it would still be for the better. For then she would at least be being honest with herself. They walked out of the common room and down the halls leading to the Entrance of the school.
They walked in silence for a few minutes and reached the lake. It was almost dark outside, as the sun was slowly sweeping over the mountains. Soon they would either have to go inside or get in trouble for being on the grounds after dark. The sun went all the way down, and Neville grabbed Ginny's arm and told her they should go back inside.
"Neville?" Ginny asked.
"Yeah?" he replied.
"I don't know how to say this," she started.
"Just tell me. There shouldn't be secrets between us, Gin!"
Ginny took a deep breath and they stopped walking. "There shouldn't," she replied. "As friends."
"What do you mean?" Neville asked her, looking her dead in the eye.
"Well, as friends. Friends should be able to tell each other everything."
'Are you breaking up with me?" Ginny nodded, and Neville grew exasperated. "But Ginny! We were so happy! Why break up what is so natural and wonderful?" he asked.
"Key word in that sentence, is WERE. If you haven't noticed, I'm NOT happy! I need to be honest with myself! I don't love you! I used to, but that love has died!"
"What are you talking about? Weren't we having a perfectly ok time tonight?" he asked her.
"No. We weren't. This isn't fun anymore. Not like it used to be. Now, I'm going to be honest with myself and you, and I'm going to tell you what's in my heart."
"And what's that?" he asked bitterly.
"I am in love with. Harry," she whispered softly.
"Duh! Why couldn't I have seen it before? Harry has EVERYTHING I don't. And now, the one thing I thought I would have always above him. It all comes clear. Don't worry. I won't tell your lover boy that you're in love with him. Your secrets safe with me."
"Neville. I'm sorry," she whispered, a tear sliding down her cheek.
