A/N: I apologize for my negligence, but school was demanding my full
attention. Gladly I did well(or at least I think lol) and today I really
felt like writing, but this chapter has it's first part written in my
"uninspired" times so I don't know if it is as good as I expect, I just
really hope you like it and keep reading. I'm also apologizing for rushing
things a bit, but there are really good ideas I have for the fic and it was
taking quite a while for them to happen, and this little jump was planned.
*you'll understand once you read it *
I want to thank you so much for your replies, and to let you know I'm amazed so many people have me on their favorites! Thank you so much! It's been quite a while since the last time I thanked my readers so, just to let you know I only write for you. I really hope you like this and review, it means a lot to me. Kisses buh bye! And enjoy it!
The next day:
"What's going on? Why is everyone staring at me??!" Ginny almost yelled when she walking in the Great Hall along with Hermione.
"Herm.it's nothing, they probably think you looked so gorgeous last night.."
"Hermione you know something and you're not telling me!" She eyed her friend suspiciously.
"Well.you see..last night when you and Viktor went outside." Hermione trailed off as Ginny froze.
"What?? What happened?" The younger girl asked worriedly.
"Well.someone..sort of saw you.kissing." Hermione said holding back her laughter at Ginny's wide eyed expression.
"Who? Who was it?" Ginny was getting alarmed by Hermione's silence. "Was it Harry? Cho? Please tell me it was you or Ron!"
"Sorry, I can't do that.." Hermione smiled regretful smile for not going to look for her friend when she noticed Ginny was gone.
"Then who was it?!"
"Peter Hoffman, a first year Slytherin." Hermione answered.
"And what did he do about it?" Ginny asked fearfully.
"He ah... saw you too.and kind of spread around."
Ginny was breathless. "What about Harry? Has he heard of it yet?"
"Ah.Ron is trying to keep him inside the room.while.."
"While what?!" Ginny asked
"Viktor talks to him."
"Are you crazy! He's going to say it was nothing!" Ginny suddenly changed her attitude.
"Well I thought you wanted that.." Hermione said in a low voice.
"But of course not!" Ginny said in a tone that totally betrayed her words.
When she was turning her back to leave the Grat Hall giving up on brackfast guess who she bumped into.
"AH.sorry Harry." She said blushing furiously. He didn't answer and just kept walking to his table.
After the Ball events many things happened. More and more rumors were spread around about Ginny and Viktor though nothing happened, but even if it sound incredible Harry didn't seem to mind so much anymore and he was even sympathetic with Ginny when she felt like hiding and running away because of the rumors, though he did not admit he was being friendly to her and kept trying to make Ginny jealous, who would have a funny outburst every time she saw Harry with another girl, but she always made sure no one save Hermione could see those.
Time was flying and soon they would be going back home for the Christmas holidays.
"I know you can't spend Christmas with us, but you're staying with us for the rest of the Holidays right?" Ron asked Hermione nervously fidgeting.
"Sure I will, I already spoke to my parents about it." She smiled warmly and kissed him on the forehead. "I'd never leave you alone at your brothers' will." She grinned.
"I feel safer now." Ron joked.
"Feel sorry for Harry and Ginny though. Even though they're in that 'diplomatic relations' of theirs it will be quite awkward, but I know Ginny would never let Harry spend a horrible Christmas at the Dursley's just because of that."
"Yes, I know. Mum is really happy Harry will be with us, she knows they broke up, but she believes in Harry. You know mum." Ron said taking Hermione's hand and walking outside the castle. "I think we should go to the train, it leaves in half an hour and I want to get good places for us."
"Sure. Let's go, I want to take the chance that Harry and Ginny are not here and let you in a little plan I have to put them back where they belong. Together." Hermione said grinning widely.
"Ah, that's my little genius, you're brain never rests does it?" Ron asked.
"Nope, that's why you like me. I can still think for us when your brain stops." Hermione mocked and got lightly pinched on the arm. "Ouch! I will press charges against you Weasley." She said in mock seriousness that didn't seem serious at all.
They reached the train and chose an empty compartment by the end of the train and sat.
~~~~~~ // ~~~~~~ // ~~~~~~ //~~~~~~// ~~~~~~// ~~~~~// ~~~~~~
Ginny hurried to the train carrying her trunk. It was really heavy and she could barely walk without hurting her back, but she had asked the elves not to take her luggage yet because she needed to pack so things, so it was her own fault she had to carry it now.
"Ah Merlin! Why do these stuff only happen to me?!" Ginny waved around her arms and jumped on top of her clothes that fell from the truck when it opened in the middle of the courtyard.
"Ginny?" The dark haired boy arched an eyebrow at the distressed girls as he watched her compose herself in front of him. She was flushed in a deep shade of red either from anger or embarrassment.
"Oh Hi Harry.What's up?" She said pretending there was no truck in front of her, but Harry dismissed it and went right to the point.
"Let me help you with that." He said kneeling and gathering her clothes back in the trunk as she knelt down beside him and help, she couldn't dismiss him now, and there was no reason to be proud now, she would miss the train if she had to pack it all by herself.
"We should just use a spell to pack it.I guess I was just to angry to realize it.." Ginny blushed. * But then we wouldn't spend time together.where did THAT come from young lady! * She scolded herself mentally.
"Yeah I guess we got a bit dense, but with all this rush and people everywhere it's not so unexpected." He tried to be serious.
"Well, thanks for your help." Ginny said picking up the truck again and walking awkwardly because of the weight.
"Do you really think I'll let you carry that to the train?" Harry said hurrying a bit to catch up with the younger girl and taking the truck from her not noticing the deep shade of red she turned.
"You don't have to Harry, really I can manage." She said trying to get the truck back and brushing his hand on the way. But this time she wasn't the only one blushing madly.
"It's alright, we're almost there." Harry pointed his head to the train.
"Well, thanks again then.." Ginny said not knowing how to treat her ex- boyfriend.
"Don't mention it." He said in a casual tone making Ginny smile at the fact he didn't treat her as a stranger.
"So.how.a.have you been." She dared to ask.
"Good. You?" He answered.
"Me too."
"Good. Ah, here we are." Harry said reaching the platform and helping Ginny up.
"I think you are the last." A wizard said picking Ginny's trunk and putting it away. "Have a nice trip." The man said and left for luggage compartment.
"Here." Harry said hopping on the train and offering a hand to help Ginny.
"Thanks." She said taking it.
"You've been saying that a lot today." He grinned.
"Well I guess it's because you've been a gentleman." She joked. "That deserves recognition." She said getting a mock glare from Harry.
They really didn't seem ex anything, there was no awkwardness between them in that moment, and it felt only natural to be teasing each other and talking. As Ginny tried to pass Harry to lead the way she got her foot stuck in his and tripped falling in Harry's arms just like the year before. Their faces were not even an inch away from each other and they were frozen, neither moving, just staring at each other as if asking " What the hell is going on?" and "Why the hell didn't it happen before?"
This time yes, the moment was getting awkward and as Ginny tried to get away from Harry's grip, who was completely paralyzed, not helping nor stopping they accidentally brushed their lips together for a brief moment and then though it had gone too far and snapped out of it.
"I should go look for Ron and Hermione." Ginny said running off. But in the moment their faces turned around smiles blossomed on their faces.
* What are you smiling about Harry? * He though to himself shaking his
head and following Ginny's lead to look for his friends.
"Oh, there you are! We though you weren't coming anymore." * Or had chosen a private compartment * Ron felt like saying, but it was the kind of thing he'd say if his sister and friend were still together, now it would not sound weird.
"Oh, I had to carry my truck here and it fell open. Harry helped me though." Ginny said as they both blushed and Ron and Hermione grinned madly at each other.
