Ginny and Harry had been talking a lot lately. I didn't think much of it at the moment, but now that they've been at this for a week or so, I think it's time my protective brother side took over. Fred and George always told me to watch out for Ginny. To make sure she got a decent guy who was worthy of her. No offense against Harry but I don't think with all the girls he has to choose from that he'll pick Ginny. Harry is everything Fred and George said her guy should be but there's a flaw. Or maybe a bonus. He's my best friend.
"Potions cannot get any worse," Harry scuffed. "No objections there," Ron added haughtily. Hermione smiled amused at her best friends. "You two need to learn muggle reverse psychology!" Ron shuddered. "I'm psycho enough!" He fumed.
Harry laughed and cast Hermione an amused eye. She returned it and commented.
"Ron…I think you need to tell Dumbledore about this."
Ron launched into what sounded like a preachers sermon for about an hour, giving Harry the ultimate chance to check out Ginny who was sitting on the couch.
What am I thinking? Harry shook his head. He liked Cho. Ah, yes, but does Cho like you? Now there's you sign. She loved Diggory over you! Said a nasty voice in Harry's head.
*Monday*
"Harry do you have a quill? I haven't a single one on me!" Hermione whined. Harry searched his clean bag. "Yeah, here." Hermione sighed. "Thanks! I don't know what's getting into me…I mean last night-" Harry smirked. "Ron have anything to do with that?" Hermione blushed scarlet. "Well what about you and Ginny?" She snapped quietly as Professor Flitwick passed.
Harry sighed and continued. "I like Cho. I should have never did that with Ginny."
Hermione smiled mischievously. "So are you saying you regret it?" Harry grinned cleverly. "I never said that."
Harry saw Cho during break. She smiled and waved from the courtyard. Harry waved back but didn't stop to chat. Visions of Cedric and her holding hands kept shooting back at him. And that wasn't the only thing shooting!
"Draco." Draco Malfoy had arrived from behind Cho. He was lingering around her making wild gestures. Cho didn't seem to notice. Her back was to Harry, but Draco was right there in clear shot. "Get away from her." Harry mouthed at Draco.
Draco moved forward and asked loudly. "Why should I?" Harry balled his fists.
"You leave her." Draco nodded clicking his tongue. "After I get what I want."
Harry didn't hesitate, with his Quidditch reflections he threw himself on Draco.
A few screams sounded and Harry felt hot blood surround him. Next thing Harry knew he was in a black room. Or at least he thought it was. He could hear Cho calling for him. He also heard another voice it sounded like Ginny. Maybe it was his mother. Harry didn't know. Slowly he rose and walked forward.
