As Hermione continued digging through her trunk pulling out dress robes Ginny allowed her self to reflect on why she kept thinking about the past. Why had she remembered her brothers first day on the train? Why then, why not her first year at Hogwarts?

"Ginny, do you think I should wear the blue one, the purple one, or the green one? I can't decide." Hermione held each robe up in its turn.

"I guess you should wear green, Cedric used to say it was his favorite color… I mean when… Oh never mind just go with the green one!" Ginny looked at Hermione and gave her a sheepish smile. Hermione looked at her with a worried frown.

"Ginny, are you sure you're alright. And what do you mean by 'I mean when'? You know you can always come to me if you are having problems. That is what friends are for you know!" Hermione gave her a small grin and gave Ginny a hug.

"Yea, I'm fine Herm… I am just dealing with too many things. I have to figure out why. So don't worry and have fun with Victor today." Ginny stood up walking over to her trunk and opening the lid pulling out a small photo with two smiling people in them. The girl was Ginny and the boy was… Cedric Diggory.

Hermione knelt down looking at the two smiling people who were laughing at something funny off the picture, "When did you two take that? I didn't know you guys hung out while you weren't at Hogwarts."

"Well, you see, when I had all those problems my first year here, Cedric made me a promise…" Ginny sighed pulling the memory back into her mind.

"Ginny are you alright? Are you… are you crying?" Ginny tilted her head to look at the person the voice was coming from, "You are crying! What's wrong?"

Ginny wiped her eyes and looked back at the boy. She knew him but not to well, he was a friend of her twin brothers, Fred and George, but she hadn't really talked to him. He was tall with dark hair and a very handsome face. "I'm fine Cedric. I'm just having some problems. Life stuff you know."

Cedric looked down calmly and sat next to her letting out a sigh. He seemed to have no trouble talking to a first year. Maybe it was because he wasn't very popular unless you counted the girls in Hufflepuff who swarmed to him. "You know Ginny, you could always talk to your brothers. They really love you."

"Yea, I know they love me but, I can't tell them about this. I'd rather just sit here and work it out on my own." Ginny gave a small smile and searched Cedric's eyes.

"Well, you can come to me. I don't have a problem with you talking to me Ginny. In fact, I'll make you a promise." Cedric smiled.

"Oh and what might that promise be Cedric?" Ginny looked at Cedric wiping away another tear that was slowly falling from her eyes.

"You can come to me with your problems and tell me what is wrong… if you let me come and talk to you about mine!" Cedric gave Ginny a hug and smiled at her again.

Ginny slowly drifted out of the memory still looking at the picture. Supposedly Hermione had been talking to her and she hadn't realized it because the next words that came from Hermione's mouth surprised her. "Alright, if you don't want to tell me then you don't have to." Hermione stood up and changed into her dress robes walking out of the dormitory leaving Ginny to herself.

"Oh great. Now I'm losing my friends over my memories! Why do I have to think about all this now? It isn't fair. Why did it happened to me! Why did You-Know-Who take Cedric? It just isn't fair!" Ginny let the thought roll through her mind until the Sandy haired girl walked into the dormitory from the adjoining room.

"Ginny, Nick is waiting for you out by the portrait. He says he want to get to the field but her needs to do something first." The girl looked down at Ginny and smiled. Her name was Sarah and she was the sister of Seamus Finnigan's little sister. Though they were in the same year Ginny didn't think Sarah really liked her.

"Thanks Sarah! I really appreciate you telling me." Ginny smiled as Sarah walked out of the room. Ginny looked down at her black school robes and decided that they were good enough to wear out to the Quidditch field. Reaching into her trunk she pulled out a green candle and a Hufflepuff Quidditch patch with the letters C.D. sewed into it. Cedric had given it to her when he ordered new Quidditch robes. Closing the trunk Ginny walked out meeting Nick outside of the portrait hole. "Hello Nick."
