Dinner Time
Ginny walked into the Great Hall, it was 7:15, forty-five minutes past the start of dinner. But she had decided to finish her homework first, so she would be able to have free time afterwards. The 5th year entered, taking her customary seat at the Gryffindor table. She normally sat at the end closest to the entrance to the Great Hall, facing to where she could see the other house-tables. She didn't like to have her back turned to people and she usually chose a spot where there weren't very many people. Sitting, she took a piece of roasted chicken, a small scoop of mashed potatoes, and a few pieces of lettuce for a salad. She started eating, taking small bites, no one of interest was around to talk to, so she took to scanning the room. Her eyes flowed slowly over the inhabitants of the Great Hall. There was Cho Chang over at the Ravenclaw table, surrounded by her 'groupies' and then half of the male population of the Ravenclaw house hanging on her every word. Thank goodness she was a 7th year, and would be gone after the summer. After Cho, she spotted Ernie McMillan and Justin Finch-Fletchey, the two Hufflepuff boys laughing. Idiots. Thought Ginny to herself. Personally, she couldn't stand Hufflepuffs, but that was just her opinion. She continued looking, and she stopped immediately on a pale faced, white-blonde haired 16 year-old boy. None other than Draco Malfoy. For once he was alone. Not the Pug-Faced Parkinson girl hanging all over him. Nor Crabbe and Goyle... They were probably beating some innocent kid up outside this very room. She hadn't noticed, but she was staring..
Across the room, the infamous Draco Malfoy sat, a forkful of potatoes in his hand as he placed them in his mouth. Glancing about the room, his eyes landed upon the youngest Weasley. His eyes locked with hers, and he smirked, doing the bobby things with his eyebrows, then looked away. Aww. His admirers. He thrived off of them. The Weasley girl. I guess she has come a long way from the scrawny 11 year-old she was when she first arrived at Hogwarts. Her hair thin and stringy, she had been short and thin, not one to show off, for she had nothing to show. But now, as a 15 year-old girl, her hair had taken a more crimson tone than a 'red' one, and it was curly. But not frizzy like Granger's. Her curls were soft and framed her face, the dark red against her pale skin made her look like an angel. Her eyes had turned from a dull muddy brown, to a deep cinnamon in colour. She was no longer thin and gangly, instead she was slim, and tiny. She was petite, being of only 5'2 amongst girls who were two and three inches taller than she. She wasn't built like Pansy was. Pansy's body was curvaceous and the way she wore her clothes made her look like a muggle prostitute. [No offense to Pansy ^^] Ginny wasn't curvy, she was slender, and had very little appeal to her body, other than she was just a normal shaped girl. She wasn't fake like that 'Twilight Solay'.. The famous witch singer who had been known to have plastic inserted in 'certain places' to accentuate herself. Though it only made people hate her more than they already did. 'Was I just thinking about a Weasley?' Draco thought to himself, shaking his head. 'I'm disgusted with myself.' He sighed, chucking his roll down onto his plate, and burying his head in his hands.
Ginny blushed furiously as Draco's gaze met hers, and she looked to the others at the table. Next to her, sat Parvati Patil and Lavender Brown, they were talking about boys, what else was new. Finding no other alternative, she listened.
"Did you SEE him in the common room?" Parvati squealed, giggling.
"Well DUH 'Vati, I was with you! He looked so good in that turtleneck." Lavender's extremely annoying voice rang out in reply.
"Seamus has turned into such a hunk." Parvati grinned, looking over to Seamus, and flashing him a brilliant smile. Parvati was one of those girls who could probably get any guy she wanted. She and her twin sister Padma. Her parents had moved to London from India before the twins were born, which is the reason why she and her sister had come to Hogwarts. Parvati and her sister were named after two mountains located in India, and both were extremely pretty. They both had a deep brown hair, almost black, sleek and shiny, silky looking. They both had identical violet almond shaped eyes and long lashes. The two had naturally tanned skin, flawless not a blemish, or pimple in sight. Both had very 'nice' bodies, large in the chest and hips, like an hourglass. They had been that way since their 5th year.
Lavender Brown. There was a different story. Lavender was just a plain Brit, no relatives from foreign countries or anything, just a plain Brit like mostly everyone else. Lavender wasn't exactly what you call pretty, she just had the personality that made you think she was pretty. It brainwashed you. She had long golden blonde hair reaching just past her shoulders, and dull blue eyes. Her face was sorta squashed looking. Her nose was long, and her eyes were squinty. She had a long slender neck, and was very thin, she was shaped like an upside-down pear, and she was quite snooty to. Turning down most people to be her friends. She was mostly friends with just Parvati, Padma, and a girl from Hufflepuff named Eryka Glomp.
Ginny continued to listen to them chatting about Seamus, rolling her eyes. I Gits /I She thought, resting her elbow on the table, and her chin in her hand. She found her gaze drifting back over towards Draco.She was staring again, but she wasn't brought out of her trance until.
"GINNY!. Hello? Are you ALIVE"
A callused hand was waving in front of her face, she jumped, shaking her head.
"Ron? What the hell are you doing?"
"You were staring.." Ron said disgustedly. "At Malfoy."
"I. I was?"
She asked, tilting her head to the side.
"Yeah. You were. Now c'mon. Everyone's clearing out."
Ginny nodded, and stood, glancing back over towards Draco before she slipped out, who in turn, was watching her. She blushed and headed up to the Common Room, escorted by Harry, Ron, and Hermione.
