Chapter 3:

Ginny couldn't think straight in any of her classes that day. She felt as if she was floating on clouds. During lunch Ron and Harry had gone to the library to do some research project and Ginny was able to talk to Hermione alone. As food appeared on her plate, Ginny said to Hermione, "I feel so happy. I haven't been able to think straight in any class today." Hermione raised her eyebrows in alarm.

"No, no. Don't worry Hermione I have been paying some attention. I haven't really missed anything I suppose.", Ginny added at the sight of Hermione's reaction to what she had said.

"Well, actually to tell you the truth that's how I felt when Ron asked me to be his girlfriend at the beginning of this year. I also have to say that to this day I still feel like I'm floating on clouds sometimes.", Hermione said, a smile creeping across her lips. Ginny smiled too and they ate the rest of their lunch in silence.

Later that day Ginny found herself in the dormitory trying to find something to wear for dinner. She was carelessly throwing clothes all over the place, ripping the closet apart and messing the room up. She finally decided on a cute red dress which she slipped into and took a look at herself in the mirror. As Ginny looked at herself she saw in the mirror the mess she had done. "Uh- oh" , she murmured to herself. 'I better pick this up before Hermione gets up here and sees all this, she'll kill me!', Ginny thought to herself. So, she got to work quickly, picking up all the clothes and putting everything back in its place. She finished quickly and put on her red sandals. Then , she grabbed her brush and hurriedly ran it through her red hair.

Ginny had ran downstairs and seated herself at the table where Hermione was already waiting as usual (Hermione was always punctual) and now they were waiting for Ron and Harry before eating. "Hi", Hermione greeted Ginny.

"Hey", Ginny said cheerily.

"So, what took you so long? You usually get here a few minutes after me. Today it took you twice as long to get here.

"Oh, sorry. I just had a little trouble getting dressed.", Ginny replied blushing at her remembrance of turning the room practically upside down.

"Oh, no you didn't mess up the room completely did you?", Hermione asked curiously when she saw Ginny's cheeks turning a light shade of pink.

"Well, I did but, I fixed it!", Ginny said all in a rush.

"OK, I better not see a mess once I get there!", Hermione said jokingly.

"How did you know??", Ginny asked.

"I did it when Ron asked me out but, don't tell anyone. I don't want the secret out that I can actually get crazy.", Hermione said and then they both burst out laughing.

Ginny because she could never imagine Hermione doing what she had done a few minutes ago and Hermione because she was remembering the day she tore the room apart searching for the right thing to wear.

A few minutes later Harry and Ron sat next to Ginny and Hermione. "Hey!", they said in unison.

Hermione and Ginny smiled and said hi too. They were all almost finished with dinner when Harry asked Ginny if she'd like to take a walk. Ginny smiled and said, "Yes." So, after they were done Ginny and Harry went toward the garden. When they got there they sat on a nearby bench and talked for awhile. They talked about school, teachers, and the relationship with Ron and Hermione for some reason. Suddenly Harry stood up.

"Let's go up to the common room", he said.

"Why?", Ginny asked curiously.

"Well, it's more quiet and I really need to talk to you.", Harry said. "Okay", Ginny agreed.

Harry and Ginny had reached the common room and entered. They moved toward a corner and sat down together. "So, what is it that you need to talk to me about?", Ginny asked.

"I just um. wanted to say that you've been a really good friend.", Harry replied awkwardly.

Ginny stared at him. 'Was he serious???' , she wondered. Harry reached over and played with her hair. He'd never done that before. Ginny asked, "Is that all?"

"Well, not really.", said Harry.

Ginny waited and Harry said, "Ginny for awhile I've been thinking about us and I've realized that I love you and I wanted if you feel the same way about me?"

"Well, I do Harry, I always have loved you", Ginny replied.

Harry smiled sweetly and said, "Does that mean you'll be my girlfriend?"

"Of course!!!", Ginny replied laughing her heart filled with happiness.

They both got up. Ginny kissed him lightly on the cheek and ran off to her dormitory, leaving Harry feeling happy and filled with love for her.

She went to bed that night. She heard Hermione come in at about 10:00 and heard her say goodnight to Ron. As Hermione entered the room she fell asleep filled with dreams of her and the boy she loved so much, Harry Potter.
