Mixed Company
Chapter One Eat, Drink and be Merry
It had been nearly six months since they had really been together. Ginny had kissed him goodbye on June 1st as Harry left for his Quidditch tour. It was now November 27 and there she sat in a booth in the back corner of the Leaky Cauldron. The Quidditch tour was over for Christmas break, but Harry's team was having a little party before they left for the holiday.
Ginny sat there sipping her mug of butterbeer as seven people in matching bright orange robes made there way into the pub. There were loud and cheering over their most recent victory. Ginny cringed at the amount of bright orange that covered her brother. _As if his hair wasn't bad enough._ Ginny sat quietly and watch the team celebrate for a while. Her eyes lingered over Harry. He hadn't told her about this party. He actually hadn't told her when the Quidditch tour would be over. It's almost as if he hadn't wanted her to know about it. Luckily, Ron had told her all about it, and hadn't asked questions when she told him not to mention it to Harry. Ron just assumed that she would be planning some sort of surprise for Harry.
Ginny warily eyed a girl with long dark hair, pulled back in a ponytail. She was sitting too close to Harry for Ginny's comfort. Her name was Lucy or Lisa or something. She was one of the Chasers for the team. Was this why he neglected to tell her about the end of the tour? Maybe he thought he could steal away for a few days with Lucy/Lisa and come home and everything would be fine. Ginny sighed. She really hated confrontations. She stood up with the intention to leave. Ron noticed the movement and waved her over.
"Hey Ginny!" he grinned. "Come on over." Ginny sighed but smiled none the less. She made her way over to her brother and gave him a hug.
"Hello Ron," she smiled. She glanced over at Harry. Her smile faltered, but came back brightly. She walked over to him.
"Hi," he smiled. Ginny noticed that Lucy/Lisa had backed off.
"Got anything more to say than "Hi," dear?" Ginny kissed Harry on the cheek and he pulled her into a hug.
"I missed you, Gin," he whispered. Ginny smiled.
"I missed you, too."

Sorry the chapter is so short. I'm not really sure where this is going. Please review!
