The Girl with a Riddle

She sat on her bed writing in her diary.

"Dear diary,

I know I haven't written to you in a while, but I've been busy thinking. You know how I told you about my first year and everything that happened then, well I've been thinking more about him. My eyes travel through the skies at night trying to search for the star that might be hiding him. I find myself calling out his name every so often. His face blinds my dreams. My heart skips a beat every time I discover myself daydreaming about him."

She stopped for a second thinking of more to write, but found herself thinking of him. It'd been five years since then, and she still thought about him everyday. He was the only one she thought of. No one knew that the only reason why she had a crush on a different person was because he reminded her of the one in her dreams. They all thought it was because he was famous.

She started to write again,

"Mum finds me crying at night sometimes, when I am home for the summer. I tell her everything is fine and not to worry, but - I just miss him, that's all. I want to be with him once more, to see his face and his jet black hair, I want him in my arms, if only - if only my brother's friend didn't come and save the day I could still have my love to hold. Well, I think I should do my work for classes tomorrow; I have neglected to do that as well. I am sorry for such a short passage but I promise tomorrow will be longer. With this last word, I sign my name,

Virginia Weasley "

"Ginny, are you ok?" A girl from a few tables over asked.

"I am, Hermione. I - I'm just tired, I think I'll go to bed. G'night." Ginny got up and picked up her diary as well.

"Alright Ginny, I'll see you later. G'night." Hermione said as she went back to her book.

Ginny walked up the long stairway to her dorm, which was on the left; she walked in and put her diary down in her trunk, where it lay safe and sound. She closed her trunk and put a locking charm on it. She was great with charms, but no one seemed to take the time and notice, no one but him at least. Ginny put her nightgown on and sat on her bed. She closed her hangings and laid down. As her thoughts raced threw her head, she began to cry herself to sleep. It always happened this way and no one seemed to care, but him.



"Virginia, I'm here now." Ginny heard a voice and turned around. There he was. The one she had been waiting for.

"Tom, where have you been?" She asked putting her hands on her hips.

He smiled, "I'm sorry dearest, I hade some things to take care of."

"Well you could have come sooner, five years and not even a letter." Ginny whined.

"Do you think there are owls in the memory world?" Tom asked sarcastically.

"There could be," Ginny said walking towards Tom.

"Oh my fair Princess, I have missed you so." Tom said as he took her hands.

"Not nearly as much as I have missed you." Ginny said looking up into Tom's eyes.

Tom bent down and kissed her lips.

It was a short, sweet kiss. "I love you, Virginia." He said.

"Oh Thomas, you know I hate that name." Ginny said rolling her eyes.

"And you know I don't like the name Thomas, I prefer Tom thank you." He said kissing her forehead.

Ginny's breath escaped her lips as she drew in Tom's unique smells. She closed her eyes and when she opened them again, she found a startling surprise. Tom was nowhere to be seen.

Ginny was tangled in her sheets. She had, had a dream. That was it, just a dream. A tear escaped her watering eyes. Why did she kid herself with such silly little things as dreams? Even she did not know. She glared over at the clock only to see that it was only midnight. There was still a few hours to go until day break. Ginny sat up and looked out side her hangings to see if any one else was up. Luckily no one was. Ginny stepped out and opened the door to the dorm.

Ginny headed down the stairs to the Common Room. She peered around the corner just to see if anyone was there. There was a few people sleeping with their heads on their books but no one else that were awake.

Ginny walked around the corner being careful not to wake any of the sleeping people, walked out of the door, and slipped her feet onto the cold floor of the hallway. She looked from left to right and then headed down the hallway to a room that she hadn't entered in a long while. She turned a few corners and stood in front of a sign that said "Out of Order."

Ginny hesitated before opening the door and walking into the dimly lit room. She gave a sigh as her memories came back of that one night in June. She wiped the tears away from her eyes and walked over to the sink that she had entered five years ago. She gulped down some saliva that was building up in her mouth, bent down by the snake on the pipe, and hissed a small tune. She stepped away as she watched the entrance of the Chamber open once again.

Ginny hesitated once more before jumping into the whole and sliding down the pipe. She landed with a thump on some bones that hadn't disposed themselves. She sat up and walked forward to the place where Tom and her had shared there first kiss. She stood in the spot she got shivers up her spine and tears escaped from her eyes.

Ginny wrapped her arms around herself trying to keep herself from shivering but the more she tried the more she shivered. Ginny felt something wrap around her and suddenly felt warmth. She turned around, but there was no one there.

Ginny turned back around and walked on farther. There it was; the dead caurcus of the Basilisk. Ginny found herself walking towards it. Tears streamed down as she passed that spot and sat down in another.

It was the spot where Tom held her tight and told her all about their plans together. Ginny furiously wiped away the tears and laid down thinking of Tom's face.

Ginny slipped into a soft sleep. Not knowing she had. When she awoke again she was in a bed. It wasn't hers. It had green and silver sheets, and was rounded with no hangings. Ginny looked around the room and saw pictures of herself all over.

"am I dreaming again?" She asked aloud.

"No, this is real this time." Came a voice from the corner.

"What do you mean?" Ginny asked.

"Oh Virginia, I know about your fantasy you had about us." The voice said again.

"What do you mean us? Who are you?" Ginny demanded getting off of the bed and looking around.

"Surely you should know my voice, or has it been to long. I am terribly sorry about such a long wait." The voice said and something grabbed Ginny from behind her.

She jumped and ran to the other side of the room. She slowly turned around to see him starring back at her. She gasped as she looked him up from foot to head.

"Tom," She asked in a quite voice.

"Yes, Ginny, it is me." He said.

"But, you - you're just - this is a dream isn't it! It has to be, you - you're gone, out of my life and never coming back, you - you can't come back, you're just a memory! Where am I? I have to wake up this dream isn't funny any more." Ginny shouted running around the room, searching for a way out.

"Ginny calm down. You are NOT dreaming and I AM real. Aren't you happy to see me? Haven't you at least missed me?" Tom asked running in front of Ginny, making her stop and actually look at him.

"No, I am not happy to see you and I didn't miss you. Matter of fact I was glad you left and now you can leave again." Ginny said.

Tom grabbed her and threw her on the bed.

"OWW! That hurt!" Ginny said.

"Exactly," tom said.

Ginny looked down. A single tear escaped her eyes.

"It's really you isn't it?" ginny asked after a long silence.

"That's what I have been trying to tell you." Tom said in his softest voice. He sat down beside her.

"I've missed you Ginny, and I am hoping you have missed me. I've gone to long with out you. I need you back. If only Potter didn't ruin our plans - I - I could still have you." Tom finished looking at Ginny.

"I - I've missed you too. I've thought about you each day since then. Wanting you to be with me. I love you Tom, I know I have never told you that, but it's true." Ginny said looking in Tom's eyes.

Tom bent down and kissed Ginny's lips. Ginny heard a muffled "I love you too," come from Tom's mouth. Her lips formed into a smile as tom pulled away.

"I should probably escort you out of here, so you're not late for classes that is." Tom said.

"Yeah that would help I guess." Ginny said blushing.

"here, follow me." Tom said.

He stood up and walked to a clean section of the wall. He tapped it with his wand and the wall opened. Ginny looked at him amazed to see what was on the other side.

She stood up and walked over to the door way. On the other side was - was her dorm. Her actual dorm in Gryffindor Tower. Her eyes widened and looked at Tom.

"I wanted to be close to you." he said.

"I'll see you later then." Ginny walked into her dorm and watched as Tom and his room disappeared.

Ginny looked at the clock on her bedside table. It was only seven so she got dressed and walked down to the Common Room and sat to wait for the others.
