Chapter 5: Love is so overrated!
Ginny lay in bed that night twisting a red lock of hair around her finger. She was so happy, Harry had got the point and he loved her, that was all that mattered! Harry loved her.
"Harry loves me," she muttered to herself, it felt so good to say it, Harry loved her.
Harry sat in his bed thinking about what had happened earlier that night between him and Ginny. He had realized the reason she loved him and had told her that, but he couldn't help but feel like he was leading her on. He didn't say he loved her, but something inside told him that she thought that he had meant he had loved her when he didn't. Everything was becoming so clear! He had told her that he knew she loved him and she had thought he loved her. He had hugged her, it was a friendly hug, but she had probably seen it as something more. He had to do something, he wanted to know her better, then maybe he could fall in love with her but for right now they were friends and nothing more. He didn't want to hurt her anymore than he already had, but leading her on would be more painful in the end He had to find some way to tell her that they were only friends. He had to get out of his room it was so cold and he wanted to get out of the tight cramped space of his bed he needed to pace. He grabbed his robe and wand and headed down to the common room.
Ginny was grinning from ear to ear she kept muttering to herself, she hated talking to herself, she always did when she was happy and there was no one else to talk to plus Hermione wouldn't wake up to talk to her but her friends kept telling her to shut up and leave because she was waking them. They were used to her talking to herself, they didn't mind it though it was a sign she was happy the only time they minded it was when it interrupted their sleep. Ginny decided to leave the room when her friend Chloe had stuck her head through Ginny's bed curtains screaming for her to shut up so she could get some sleep. Ginny put on her robes and quietly slipped through the door making her way down to the common room.
Harry entered the common room and pulled a chair up in front of the fire. He sat down his head resting in his hand. He didn't sit down long though he got up and began to pace the common room. It helped him to think. He was still pacing when he heard a noise from the stairs. He turned to see Ginny walk over and sit on a couch. He was in the shadows and she didn't see him. She sat down and watched the fire, she had a huge smile on her face and it sounded like she was muttering to herself. Harry decided that it was now or never. He walked over and sat with her on the couch.
"So.. You can't sleep either?" he asked stirring her out of her trance.
"Oh. Hi Harry didn't see you there, yeah its been a tough night." She said "Why are you down here?" she inquired.
"Oh, just thinking about some things" He said
"What things?" she asked, laying her head on his shoulder.
A thousand things went through Harry's mind right now at the top of them was that the situation was exactly as he thought it to be; she thought that he loved her. He raised his hand to push her away but stopped. God it felt good to have her with him like that, wait what was he thinking, he was just desperate for attention from a girl, he didn't love her, this was totally defeating the purpose. He gently lifted her head off of his shoulder. Ginny stared at him pleadingly.
"Gin, we need to talk," he began
"What about?" she asked
"About us, Gin I think you have the wrong idea about us, I mean I think you have things all wrong, you think I love you. The truth is I don't love you, I mean.. I care for you, you are my friend, But today I just wanted to let you know that I know the reason you love me, and I appreciate it I mean no one has loved me before, but we have to take this slow I just can't rush myself into these situations, I hope you understand." He said
Ginny stood and he thought she was going to run away but instead she stood right in front of him with her fists clutched.
"Harry you prick (a/n: thank you reviewers for that one!), What more can I do I guess you and me, that idea is just hopeless, I mean I am just a girl standing in front of a guy asking him to love me, but that guy happens to be a pinhead that doesn't seem to care!" she cried angrily.
Uh oh Harry thought, the Weasley temper was getting the best of her! Harry quickly jumped off of the couch barley missing her fist.
" Gin, stop " he yelled "love is so overrated!!!" dodging yet another blow.
He backed up and she followed him with her fist in the air, she cornered him and he sunk to the ground and tried to get away but she pounced on him. He was pinned to the ground Ginny on top of him ready to punch him.
"You know Gin, Your pretty when you're mad!" he said
"Reall.oh no you don't you out get out of this that easy" she said slapping him on the side of the head.
"Ow. Gin that hurt" he said rubbing his head " and I am serious. you are pretty when you're mad!"
"Harry, you had better be glad you're so cute or that attempt to save your life wouldn't have worked," she said letting go of him.
He flashed a genuine smile; it of course made Ginny crumble.
"Friends?" He said extending his hand.
"Friends!" she said taking it
