"Right In Front Of You" Chapter 4: New Rooms & Exploring
**************************************************************************** **
Ginny raced down to meet with Seamus. Actually, she almost knocked him over. "In a hurry Starry?" he smirked jokingly. "Yes, to see my new prefect room!" she exclaimed, beaming with pride. "Good for you!" He hugged her & twirled her around. She laughed like mad, her hair twirling behind her, & a strange, warm feeling spreading around her. He put her down. "Oh yeah, you're a prefect too!" "You're kidding!" "Nope!" Ginny was smiling even more as Seamus started doing a little Irish gig in the hallway. She laughed harder as Seamus started singing, "I'm a prefect, I'm a prefect!" He finally stopped, offering his free arm to Ginny. "Shall we?" Ginny grabbed her trunk handle with one hand & linked arms with Seamus with her other. "We shall." They beamed brightly & sang loudly as they raced/skipped down the hall towards the prefect common room. A distance away, the two new prefects were being watched by dangerous eyes. "I'll get you back; I'll get you both back." The person moved away, as quiet as a mouse.

Seamus was excited that he was a prefect with Ginny. He started to wonder who dropped out, as Ginny had just told him in the middle of their singing. 'Well, I know Dean & Hermione wouldn't drop out, so I guess it was Lavender.' He didn't know why she dropped out; she said she liked being a prefect. 'I wonder why she dropped out,' he thought as he & Ginny kept skipping down the hallway. Finally, he & Ginny reached the common room. "Europa!" Ginny squealed to the rainbow portrait; it opened, leading them inside. Seamus had been in there before, but it had changed; instead of being a rainbow theme, it was now the universe, with real moving stars, planets, galaxies, everything. The couches were all silver with starry pillows. "It's your kind of common room Starry," Seamus exclaimed, beaming down at Ginny. She look dazed, just staring at the room. He tugged her, saying, "Come on, let's go check out our rooms!" That pulled Ginny out of her trance, because she raced up the stairs. "Hey, wait up!" Seamus laughed, following Ginny to the stairs. She stopped in front of the first door to the right, saying 'Seamus Finnigan' on it. Seamus slowly opened the door & gasped at what he saw. His room looked like a large forest, with every kind of tree that would be in a forest. He had a gold bedpost with gold, silk pillows, dark green, silk covers, & oak drawers & an oak door that had stairs leading to a bathroom they all shared. "Whoa," he gasped, "This is wicked awesome!" "Come on! Let's see my room!" Ginny exclaimed, pulling Seamus away. He just laughed & followed her up the stairs.

After seeing Seamus's room, she wanted to see hers. It seemed as though her room was the last one before the balcony, next to Hermione's room. She slowly opened her door & gasped in happy shock. Her room had shooting stars, regular stars, planets, everything that would be in space moving about in her room. Her bed had silver bedposts, silver, silk pillows, black, silk covers, & black drape. She also had silver drawers & a silver door that lead to the shared bathroom. She just stood there for a minute, staring at all of the walls. "Come on Gin, let's go explore a bit." She nodded & followed Seamus out of the room.
So far, she & Seamus were having a blast. They had ran outside & visited Hagrid. Afterwards, they went to the Quidditch Pitch & raced each other up to the top of different pillars & back down; Ginny won, but not with Seamus far behind. Now, they were under a tree next to the lake, gazing up at the sky. "Oh look! It's a cat!" Ginny said, pointing up at a cat-shaped cloud. Seamus replied, "Mine's better! It looks like a broomstick!" Ginny looked over & saw a broomstick-figure in the sky. "Whoa, it does look like a broomstick." Suddenly, that broomstick figure kept coming closer to them. "Ahh! Watch out!" Ginny yelped, & she & Seamus moved just in time before the person swooped up. She looked at who it was. "Watch it next time!" she laughed; it was Harry, with Lavender holding onto him. Seamus smiled, then exclaimed, "I thought you knew how to fly!" "I do," Harry smirked playfully, "Maybe you should learn how to." "I do!" was Seamus's reply. The four friends laughed, then Harry asked, "Do you care for a broom ride, Starry?" She smiled, replying, "I'd love to, Bolt." Lavender climbed off the broom & walked over to Seamus. "Now we can hang-out," she cooed, hugging Seamus. "Yes, we can." Even though Seamus was happy to be with Lavender, he felt a longing to be with Ginny. 'Man, you got to stop this! She's with Harry, I'm with Lavender, & we're just great friends!' He still couldn't help the pain rising in his heart, seeing Ginny with Harry, but when Ginny waved down to Seamus & Lavender, he couldn't help but notice the look of longing in her eyes too.
