A/N Hey everyone, thanks to my 4 reviewers! Lol, sadly enough I was estatic! Well I have about twice the amount of what I have posted written, so as soon as I edit, (or put it off so long that I post it without it, which is what I usually do, lol.) I will post it. I don't have any real idea what is going to happen in this story, but it should be fun, I guess.
////////////////////////////////////////LATER THAT NIGHT////////////////////////////////////////
" Maam? Im sorry to disturb you, but you all can't stay the night. If there wasn't ten of you, I could arrange it but ten is just too many. Im sorry."
TEN? Ginny thought. She slowly opened her eyes just a little bit. There were infact ten people in her room. All her brothers had come to see her: Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred, George, and Ron. Her parents were there now, and so were Hermione and Harry.
" We understand," said her father. " We will only be a few more minutes." The nurse left the room.
" Who is going to stay Arthur? I can't, you know why, and you can't. Percy can't, and..and" her mother burst out into tears. " What kind of a mother am I? I can't even stay with my own daughter when she's hurt." Her father put his arms around Molly.
" I'm sure Ginny will understand." said her father.
" Um..dad, what about us?" asked Ron. Nooooooooo!, Ginny said mentally, trying to send telepathic messages to her father.
" That sounds like our only option." Arthur said reluctantly. Im so glad that I am a witch and that I can do magic. she thought sarcastically.
Qietly everyone left the room. Everyone except for Ron, Harry, Hermione, and Arthur. Arthur leaned in close to Ron, and whispered something qietly, so that only she and Ron could hear.
" If anything happens to her while you are in charge, I swear on Merlins Beard that I will make that nightmare of yours, with the giant bunny chasing you, a reality." Ron gulped noticeably. Ginny laughed inwardly, she could pay him back now! Her father told Hermione and Harry that he was trusting them with his one and only daughters safety and to not take this responsibility lightly, and then he left. After a long akward pause Ron broke the silence.
" I think that we should go get snacks, don't you Harry? Harry?" Ron nudged him in the side.
" What? Oh ..er..yeah..right," he said, " but whom will stay with Ginny? We shouldn't leave her alone because she is ill." He sounded so much like a robot when he said the last part, that Ginny knew that this was an act.
" You are right Harry, why don't you go get the snacks, and Hermione and I will stay here with Ginny, because she is ill and shouldn't be left alone." said Ron in the exact robot voice that Harry had just used. Ginny peeked a glance at Hermione and was amazed. The girl was a genious, but she was obviously clueless to the act that was going on around her.
" That sounds like good idea." said Harry. " I will be back in a few minutes." Harry started to walk to the door, but stopped when Hermione spoke.
" Two people dont need to stay with Ginny, why don't I go with Harry and help him carry the snacks?" Harry and Ron exchanged nervous glances, and they both stuttered for a moment. Then to everyones complete surprise Ron blurted out-
" Becasue I need to talk to you and it's personal." As Ron said this Harry ducked out of the room unnoticed by anyone except Ginny.
" What did you need to talk about?" Hermione asked in a whisper. Ron walked over to stand next to Hermione, whom was standing much to close to Ginny's bed.
" There's something that I've been meaning to tell you for a while now." Ron said. Ginny noted how close together they were and the fact that as Ron spoke he started to move his face towards.
" And what would that be?" asked Hermione softly as she moved in towards Ron.
" I think I am in love with you." he said. And Im either going to laugh or puke, maybe both. thought Ginny. She really didn't want to sit here and watch this, she was feeling bad enough as it was. Right before their lips met Ginny closed her eyes and coughed very loudly They must have jumped apart because Ginny didn't hear any kissing noises.
" Maybe we should talk somewhere a little more private." suggested Hermione, and the next thing that Ginny heard was the door to her small hospital room closing. Ginny jumped out of her bed and almost let out a whoop of happiness, but decided against the matter.
Quickly and quietly she changed out of the backless hospital gown and into her favorite nightgown that her parents had left. It was a vanilla color with a satin bodice and several layer of flowing silk for the lower skirt part. She ran a comb through her hair and left her small hospital room.
As soon as Ginny had stepped foot outside of the hall, she almost ran back to her room. People were shouting and running, and there were people who looked as if they had been cursed waiting in chairs in a small room just opposite her room. She looked around for someone to ask about Draco, but she didn't see anyone that worked there. After Ginny had walked a ways down the hall she saw a small little station with 3 nurses standing there.
" Excuse me. Excuse me." said Ginny trying to get one of the nurses attention.
" Yeah what is it?" asked a tall woman with broad shoulders. Ginny cowered at the womans unnatural hight, but answered her nevertheless.
" I was wondering if a Draco Malfoy was here also." The lady looked at Ginny for a moment. A look that was oddly calculating, and replied.
" No, he checked out just a while ago." Ginny scowled. At least that means he's okay.....not that I care. she reminded herself.
" Thelma! Thelma!" shouted a young woman coming out of Ginny's room down the hall. She was hysterical. Ginny cowered backward trying not to be noticed. This couldn't be good, and she didn't want to be there for whatever it was.
" What is it Gladys?" the strangely tall woman asked.
" It's that girl all them reporters was her to see. She's not in her room, but this was laying on the floor!" The girl held up Ginny's flimsy hospital smock. Now Ginny knew that she didn't want to be there.
" What did she look like?" asked the woman named Thelma. The girl named Gladys looked thoughfully for a moment into space. Just before she was about to speak she noticed Ginny still silently backing up. Her eyes went wide with what could have only been suprise.
" Like her!" she said pointing at Ginny. Ginny didn't want to run, but found her legs carrying her away from the nurses station. She ran up a few steps and found herself in a hallway. Whcih way? Right or left.........uh....right! Before she had taken even five steps in that direction, two middle-aged wizards dressed in navy blue robes rounded the corner. She turned to run left, but saw that there were gaurds coming from that direction too. There was only one way out. A door....a door that was right in front of her. Acting purely on instinct she flung herslef through the door not knowing what she would find on the other side. What she did find was only a simple stairwell, a table with a coffee pot, and two chairs. She took a chair and put it under the doorknob. At least having Fred and George as brothers has its use's every once in a while. she thought, smiling. She knew that it wouldn't take them long to get into the stairwell, so she did not hesitate long before running quickly up two flights of stairs.
She opened the door that led to the sixth floor. There weren't any gaurds there. There wasn't anyone there. The entire floor was empty. Ginny didn't know if or what this floor was used for during the day, but she knew that she wouldn't want to be here. It was dark and musty, with the only light coming from the few windows. She noticed a nurses station simillar to the one on her floor, only this one was different. She didn't know how. It was the same size and everything, but there was something so different about it, she was suprised to find it in the same building as the other one. Although Ginny couldn't place it, she knew she had been here before, and something bad had happened, right there, at that nurses station.
Chills crept up her spine, and the hairs on her neck prickled. She hated being scared. It was just an empty floor, nothing dangerous about it, but she still had to force herself to walk to the nurses station. When she was halfway there she couldn't take the horrible silence.
" Im a witch." she told herself aloud. " And this is just a room, an ordinary room. Nothing to be afraid of, nothing is going to jump out of the dark and-" a large hand clamped over her mouth, while another snaked around her waist
