Chapter 4: Trying to Ignore It
~~~~~
The first Quidditch Match of the season was Slytherin vs. Hufflepuff. Slytherin won 210 to 10. If Harry wanted to tie the lead for the Cup he would have to beat Ravenclaw by at least the same amount. Harry pondered this and shared it with him teammates.
Five Days till the game and Harry wasn't feeling nervous, but he was feeling jealous. Ginny was, once again, attached to Eros's mouth. 'This is getting old,' he would tell himself. There just had to be another way.
Hermione and Ron were now a 'serious couple'. In class they would hold hands under their tables or draw little pictures to each other. In Charms, Ron carved 'R.W.' heart 'H.G.' on his desk. Hermione saw and barked at him for vandalizing school property and with a simple reversal charm she put it back to normal.
At meals they fed each other. Hermione would hold up her spoon and give Ron some soup, then Ron would hold up a buttered roll and let her have a bite of it. It was all very cute but also very nauseating. Harry constantly felt the need to puke after a meal, or in the middle of it.
Four days until the game, not that Harry was counting down. School was, some-what normal, although what is normal for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? 'Talking paintings, cats as professors, and a transparent pest named Peeves,' Harry listed to himself.
For the first time since school started Harry saw Ginny without an annoying git stuck on her mouth. "Where is the leach?" Harry mumbled.
Ginny heard him and stifled a giggle, "He is having dinner with him team mates in the Ravenclaw Common Room."
"He is on the Quidditch Team?" Harry asked, how could he miss this? Probably because he has ignored the Ravenclaw Quidditch Team because of a certain x-girlfriend who was the current captain.
"Chaser." Ginny shrugged, as if it was the most obvious thing.
"Oh," Harry nodded as if he should have guessed. "Chaser, right." Harry sighed, "What are we going to do without our, um, 'favorite' Ravenclaw Chaser around?"
"Are you asking me to do something with you?" Ginny asked with a sly grin.
"I dunno, do you want to do something?" Harry asked, his cheeks turning pink.
Ginny smiled. "Well, Harry," her grin faded a little, "I promised my friends we would hang out with them."
"Oh, I see." Harry mumbled. He glanced to the empty seats that Ron and Hermione usually took up.
Ginny rolled her eyes. Even such an immature act made Harry's heart flutter. He tried to ignore it. After her eyes rolled back into place she asked, "Would you like to join us?"
Harry pondered over this. 'Us' he thought. "Well, since your begging me," Harry laughed and Ginny raised an eyebrow. "I guess a few hours with you and your friends wouldn't KILL me."
"Your so sure?" Ginny smiled. She jerked her head toward the door and Harry followed. They walked in silence, a surprisingly comfortable one, to the Gryffindor Common Room and up the Boy's staircase and into the Fifth Year Boy's dorm.
Sprawled on the floor was Colin and Kyan counting candies. A non-stop giggling Dawn was on a bed with a board looking Kiki, both were flipping through a magazine. "Looks like someone cleaned." Ginny informed everyone.
"Yes, I did," said Kyan emphasizing the 'I'. "With no help from Colin!"
Colin grinned sheepishly, then he spotted a person they didn't expect, "Oh, um, hi Harry."
"Hi Colin." Harry smiled to him. Colin was the first to notice Harry, then all eyes jerked up and looked at him and Ginny.
"I asked Harry to join us," Ginny said slowly as if she were telling people who just learned to speak English.
"Oh," Kiki said, sliding off the bed gracefully. Dawn did the same, just less gracefully hitting the floor and jumping back up giggling like mad. Colin laughed with her and Kyan rolled his eyes and handed Harry a sugar quill.
"That means welcome." Ginny said to Harry as if he were learning about a new and mysterious culture. Kyan laughed. Harry happily took a bite off of it.
"Thank you." Harry smiled and Kyan nodded.
"No problem, mate!" Kyan went and sat on a trunk at the foot of a bed and leaned back on his elbows. "Anything for our Quidditch Captain."
Ginny noticed the awkwardness that hung in the room so she walked over to the dresser and tapped a weird box with the tip of her wand and wizard music erupted from it. "Come on," she grabbed random hands, one was Harry's and the other's was Dawn. "Lets dance!"
'Dancing,' thought Harry, 'to this is a lot like jumping in rhythm.' So that's what they did, all jumping, laughing, and tossing candies around the room.
After the third or fourth song they collapsed on the floor. Dawn and Colin giggling to themselves, Kiki making sure her hair looked presentable, Kyan and Ginny sighing, and Harry clutching his heart to make sure it wasn't going to pop out.
Ginny looked wonderful. Her cheeks looked flustered, her lips rosy from licking them too much, and her forehead was damp from having too much energy. She reached over past Harry lap and pulled a pack of cards out of her bag.
"Wanna play for candy?" She asked impishly to everyone. They all agreed.
"I see your 2 chocolate frogs and I raise you a licorice wand!" Ginny said with an evil grin during their third game. Dawn already lost all her candy but was giggling non-stop with every word.
"I see your candy wand and I raise you a handful of Bertie Botts!" Kyan exclaimed.
"Too rich for my blood." Harry tossed down his cards. Kyan looked back at Ginny she smiled.
"You first," she said.
"Alright," Kyan set her cards out one-by-one, "A pair of queens." He let our a victorious laugh, throwing back his head and letting his dirty-blood hair bounce with joy.
"Aw, and all I have is a little ol' pair of black Jacks," Ginny sighed, a mischievous gleam in her eyes, "Plus a red one!" Kyan's jaw dropped, "Thats right! Three of a kind, read it and weep!" Kyan did as he was told and joined Kiki and Dawn in the losers area.
Colin shuffled and dealt the cards out. Ginny's expression was emotionless. 'Not a good sign' Harry thought. They placed their bets of sugary sweets, Colin lost his whole pile. All that was left were Ginny and Harry.
"I see your tooth-flossing mints and I raise you," Harry put his cards face down on the wooden floor and pushed his whole candy pile in the center, "everything."
Ginny smiled and pushed her stack in as well. "Go first."
Harry smiled and threw down three Kings. "Three of a kind, as you said before, 'Read it and weep.'" Harry put on a smug smile and cocked up and eyebrow.
Ginny looked down at her cards for a moment then looked up at Harry, "All I have," she said throwing down two cards, "is a pair of Queens." Harry smiled and outstretched his hands for the pile of sweets that was about half his size. "AND three Aces!" She yelled, throwing herself at him with the three Aces in her left hand.
Harry caught her in his arms and lap, his jaw dropped and she stuffed a handful of Bertie Botts in his mouth. "I WIN!!!" She bounced around in his lap and the room erupted with laughter and cheers from Ginny's friends. The radio came on again and the six Gryffindors bounced around eating candy and getting a sugar high unequal to any sugar highs they have ever been on before.
~~~
It was about ten o clock when the girls and Harry left the fifth year boy's dorm. It was the most fun Harry had in a long time. Kiki and Dawn walked down to the Common Room sleepily but Harry pulled Ginny aside.
"Thank you Ginny." Harry smiled and hugged her. Ginny's chin resting on his shoulder, neither one found the need to let go.
"Your welcome," she said sleepily, yawning on his neck. Her breath made Harry's whole body warm.
"Tired?" Harry laughed into her hair, his arms resting lazily on the small of her back. Ginny's doing the same around his neck.
"Just a little," she said holding back a second yawn. She nuzzled Harry's neck with her face and sighed deeply, "Do I have to go now? I don't feel like moving."
"Me either." Harry whispered softly. 'Oh my God,' Harry thought as she let go and kissed him gently on the cheek, a little too close to his lips.
"Your sweet, Harry." Ginny slowly heading for the stairs, Harry felt incomplete. "Good night," she said smiling then walking slowly down.
'Oh My God.' Harry said, once more to himself, 'I love her.'
~~~
As Harry slept that night, all he could think about was Ginny. She was fun, beautiful, intelligent and most-of-all: taken.
'I just have to stay away from her, maybe my feeling will go away.' Harry moaned, 'I don't want them to go away, I want Eros to go away.'
Harry lay there until Ron got up and started getting dressed for breakfast. Harry did as well. "Sleep good?" Harry asked the smiling Ron.
"I didn't sleep." Ron said with a wider grin. "I spent the whole night thinking of Hermione and I have never felt more rested."
Harry wanted to say, 'I know how you feel,' but thought better of telling his bestfirend because he was thinking about said friend's little sister. "Your in love," Harry said instead.
"Really?" Ron mumbled. Harry nodded. Ron looked like he would start skipping.
They walked down into the common room and waited for Hermione. She seemed to glide down the stairs and when she saw Ron she turned bright red. Harry noticed something different, she was wearing makeup.
Ginny was walking behind her with a satisfied grin on her face. Ron and Hermione exchanged morning greetings and Ginny walked over to Harry, slipped her arm through his and asked, "What do you think?"
"Of what?" Harry asked the sexy fox.
"Of Hermione, I did her makeup." Ginny smiled happily.
"Good job, I think she looks pretty." Harry smiled and whispered, "Almost as pretty as you."
Ginny giggled, "Aw Harry, that was so sweet, you should use that as a pick up line and get a girlfriend."
'I just tried,' Harry thought to himself.
~~~
Harry inhaled deeply, "Ah, the smell of Quidditch." His teammates laughed. Harry walked into the locker room, they followed him, all dressed and they could hear their friends walking out into the stands. "Pep-talk." Harry informed them. "It is our first game of the season. I know that we can win the Quidditch Cup this year. I just know it. Slytherin plays dirty so if we want to win the cup we have to beat Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff by much more than Slytherin would."
Harry paused and walked around. "No need to be nervous, I'm not, Ron's not," Ron gave a grunt, he was sweaty and looked pale. "Ginny?"
"Huh?" Ginny looked up at Harry after securing her arm pads.
"Are you nervous?" Harry asked with a smile.
Ginny looked around at her team mates then back to her captain. "Hell no!" She yelled and jumped up, "Lets kick some Ravenclaw Butt!" She got cheers from her fellow chasers and beaters. Harry smiled and nodded. Ron got up slowly and walked to the door.
"And here is our beloved Gryffindor team!" Dean voice said over the loud speaker. He listed the last names as they kicked off the ground. He did the same to the Ravenclaw team.
Harry and Ron did their pre-game laps then took their places. Harry's eyes looked straight ahead to the figure who took opposite of him. "Cho," Harry mumbled. The dark haired figure waved. Harry did nothing.
"And--" Dean proclaimed, "There off!" He began the commentary. "Bell takes the Quaffle, passes to Jeffory, then to Weasley, Bell--and Score! 10- nothing Ravenclaw." Cheers were heard around the stands and Katie did her victory loop around the goal posts.
"Ravenclaw in possession! Menelaus passes to Davies, Weasley steals it! What a girl, you know me and her dated last term...what a kisser!" Dean told the crowd.
"Dean!" Professor McGonagall warned.
"What?" Dean question. "Lee got to say was he wanted!" He fought.
"And he got detention!" McGonagall informed.
"Weasley Scores! 20-zip: Gryffindor!" Dean went on.
Harry kept his eye on Cho, she was following him but if he let her find the golden snitch before he did then he was in big trouble.
"40-Nada! Gryffindor!" Dean cried.
Harry looked around, he wanted to keep an eye on the snitch, if he could find it. No Luck...
Cho flew so close to Harry that she could touch him, but she didn't. "Hey Harry. You didn't write this summer." Harry ignored her. "You don't like me anymore?"
"Not really," he said bitterly.
"I'm hurt Harry!" Cho proclaimed, letting her hair fly around.
Harry turned and smiled at her. "60-zero, Gryffindor," Harry said at the same time Dean did. Cho glared and zoomed past him toward her chasers. Harry put a satisfied grin on his face and sent a thumbs up to Ron.
"60-10! Gryffindor!" Dean yelled, not really happy that Ravenclaw got their first goal.
Harry spotted it, the golden snitch. It was hovering about 10 feet away from a Ravenclaw Beater, he spotted it and yelled to Cho. She speed up. Harry got a sick felling in his stomach and flew after it. The snitch ducked and Harry dove for it. "70-10 Gryffindor!" Harry flew faster, Cho was catching up. Harry brought his broomstick up at the last second, his feet only an inch above the ground and he outstretched his hand. "80-10 Gryffindor!" Dean yelled. "GO HARRY! GRAB THAT BLOODY SNITCH!" McGonagall ignored that remark because she was standing on her chair and yelling at him too grab the snitch as well. Harry closed his fist around the fluttering ball and stopped his broom stick. Cheers erupted from the stadium as he handed the ball to Madame Hooch.
"GRYFFINDOR WINS! 220-10!" Dean yelled doing a victory dance then he paused. "What the hell?" The crowd stopped their cheering and began screaming. Harry looked up and saw a rather ugly Slytherin(aka Goyle) holding on the end of Ginny's broomstick and she fell off the end.
"GINNY!" Harry yelled and kicked off the ground soaring upward to her. Harry positioned his knees to do the steering and he raised his arms upward. Everything seemed to go in slow motion. 'Oh my God, please let me catch her, please oh please God, I love her!' Harry stretched his arms out as far as they could go, she was getting closer and closer, Harry put on a burst of speed. Then she fell right into his arms and clung there.
"Oh my God!" Ginny cried as she grabbed on to Harry's neck. "Oh bloody hell! Harry's broom leveled out with her weight. Ginny's knees were curled up under his arm and her face was buried on his neck. She kissed him there, then she kissed his cheek, "Thank you Harry!" She kissed his neck again and she kissed anywhere she could put her lips. "You saved my life," she said as the broom slowly drifted downward, the crowd was cheering non-stop.
Harry held his breath, she was kissing him, then he sighed. 'Stop it Potter,' he thought, 'This is no time to get horny!'
Ginny looked Harry in the eyes, tears were falling down her cheeks she kissed him on the lips. It was quick and hard, but Harry still liked it. "For the second time, you saved my life!" She hugged him and would not let go. She clung hard and Harry's face was bright red. He looked down to land, there were crowds and crowds of people on the ground surrounding them.
Eros grabbed Ginny off of Harry and kissed her. Ron didn't like this so he acted like a little kid and pushed his siblings boyfriend and hug his sister. "Are you alright, you ok? Did you get hurt or anything?" Ron questioned her every limb.
"Right on Harry!" Katie exclaimed and she and the rest of the Gryffindor team gave him pats on the back, hugs, and kisses.
Kyan, after hugging Ginny offered to take their brooms to the shack. Ron walked quickly and steadily over to Harry and without hesitation he hugged his best friend. "Thank you for saving Ginny. I don't know what would happen if I lost her."
"No problem, Ron," Harry said awkwardly.
"Um, Harry?" Eros said from behind him. Ron let go of Harry so he could turn around. Eros outstretched his hand and offered it to Harry, "I guess I should thank you for saving MY girlfriend," he emphasized 'MY'.
Harry just nodded and walked off to sit down in the locker rooms.
~~~
'Ginny kissed me,' he told himself, 'on the lips. She kissed me. Oh God, she has a boyfriend.' Harry hit himself on the forehead, 'Just forget it, ignore it!'
Harry steeped into a cold shower, 'Think of unhappy thoughts.' Harry paused, 'Ron in a bikini,' Harry listed, 'Fred and George becoming serious, discontinuing Chocolate Frogs, dead kittens.' Harry sat on the edge of the shower and put his head in his hands, "You just can't stop thinking of the person you love..."

Next Chapter: Learning Something...The Next Chapter might be a little offensive so I will put a big ol' fat warning at the beginning to warn people!
A/N: I think, because of the next chapter, that the ratings is going to go up, because PG-13 might not cut it... OH! And sorry about this chapter, I don't really like the way it turned out, it was so much nicer in my head.
Thank you to:
Mrs Ronald Weasley : I'm glad you like it, sorry about this chapter, it kinda sucks...
kitkat : Yeah, I think she does too! I think Ginny got over the hero crush a long time ago but now there is a different crush, something else...
Butler : Yeah it is getting that way, the next chapter is going to get worse, nothing happens but the suggestion is there.
Sadz89 : lol, yeah! I kinda like the idea of Eros but after writing this much and since I know whats going to happen and what he is really about, I don't like him anymore, I'm glad that you guys don't like him either because you are really either going to like him in a weird way or hate his guts next chapter...
duke20104 : I think your spelling is fine:) Thank you:)

Hermione saw and barked at him for vandalizing school property and with a simple reversal charm she put it back to normal.
At meals they fed each other. Hermione would hold up her spoon and give Ron some soup, then Ron would hold up a buttered roll and let her have a bite of it. It was all very cute but also very nauseating. Harry constantly felt the need to puke after a meal, or in the middle of it.
Four days until the game, not that Harry was counting down. School was, some-what normal, although what is normal for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? 'Talking paintings, cats as professors, and a transparent pest named Peeves,' Harry listed to himself.
For the first time since school started Harry saw Ginny without an annoying git stuck on her mouth. "Where is the leach?" Harry mumbled.
Ginny heard him and stifled a giggle, "He is having dinner with him team mates in the Ravenclaw Common Room."
"He is on the Quidditch Team?" Harry asked, how could he miss this? Probably because he has ignored the Ravenclaw Quidditch Team because of a certain x-girlfriend who was the current captain.

"Alright," Kyan set her cards out one-by-one, "A pair of queens." He let our a victorious laugh, throwing back his head and letting his dirty-blood hair bounce with joy.

Colin shuffled and dealt the cards out. Ginny's expression was emotionless. 'Not a good sign' Harry thought. They placed their bets of sugary sweets, Colin lost his whole pile. All that was left were Ginny and Harry.
"I see your tooth-flossing mints and I raise you," Harry put his cards face down on the wooden floor and pushed his whole candy pile in the center, "everything."
Ginny smiled and pushed her stack in as well. "Go first."
Harry smiled and threw down three Kings. "Three of a kind, as you said before, 'Read it and weep.'" Harry put on a smug smile and cocked up and eyebrow.
Ginny looked down at her cards for a moment then looked up at Harry, "All I have," she said throwing down two cards, "is a pair of Queens."

"Not really," he said bitterly.
"I'm hurt Harry!" Cho proclaimed, letting her hair fly around.
Harry turned and smiled at her. "60-zero, Gryffindor," Harry said at the same time Dean did. Cho glared and zoomed past him toward her chasers. Harry put a satisfied grin on his face and sent a thumbs up to Ron.
"60-10! Gryffindor!" Dean yelled, not really happy that Ravenclaw got their first goal.
Harry spotted it, the golden snitch. It was hovering about 10 feet away from a Ravenclaw Beater, he spotted it and yelled to Cho. She speed up. Harry got a sick felling in his stomach and flew after it. The snitch ducked and Harry dove for it. "70-10 Gryffindor!" Harry flew faster, Cho was catching up. Harry brought his broomstick up at the last second, his feet only an inch above the ground and he outstretched his hand. "80-10 Gryffindor!" Dean yelled. "GO HARRY! GRAB THAT BLOODY SNITCH!" McGonagall ignored that remark because she was standing on her chair and yelling at him too grab the snitch as well. Harry closed his fist around the fluttering ball and stopped his broom stick. Cheers erupted from the stadium as he handed the ball to Madame Hooch.
"GRYFFINDOR WINS! 220-10!" Dean yelled doing a victory dance then he paused. "What the hell?" The crowd stopped their cheering and began screaming. Harry looked up and saw a rather ugly Slytherin(aka Goyle) holding on the end of Ginny's broomstick and she fell off the end.
"GINNY!" Harry yelled and kicked off the ground soaring upward to her. Harry positioned his knees to do the steering and he raised his arms upward. Everything seemed to go in slow motion. 'Oh my God, please let me catch her, please oh please God, I love her!' Harry stretched his arms out as far as they could go, she was getting closer and closer, Harry put on a burst of speed. Then she fell right into his arms and clung there.
"Oh my God!" Ginny cried as she grabbed on to Harry's neck. "Oh bloody hell! Harry's broom leveled out with her weight. Ginny's knees were curled up under his arm and her face was buried on his neck. She kissed him there, then she kissed his cheek, "Thank you Harry!" She kissed his neck again and she kissed anywhere she could put her lips. "You saved my life," she said as the broom slowly drifted downward, the crowd was cheering non-stop.

Ginny looked Harry in the eyes, tears were falling down her cheeks she kissed him on the lips. It was quick and hard, but Harry still liked it. "For the second time, you saved my life!" She hugged him and would not let go. She clung hard and Harry's face was bright red. He looked down to land, there were crowds and crowds of people on the ground surrounding them.
Eros grabbed Ginny off of Harry and kissed her. Ron didn't like this so he acted like a little kid and pushed his siblings boyfriend and hug his sister. "Are you alright, you ok? Did you get hurt or anything?" Ron questioned her every limb.
"Right on Harry!" Katie exclaimed and she and the rest of the Gryffindor team gave him pats on the back, hugs, and kisses.
Kyan, after hugging Ginny offered to take their brooms to the shack. Ron walked quickly and steadily over to Harry and without hesitation he hugged his best friend. "Thank you for saving Ginny. I don't know what would happen if I lost her."
"No problem, Ron," Harry said awkwardly.
"Um, Harry?" Eros said from behind him. Ron let go of Harry so he could turn around. Eros outstretched his hand and offered it to Harry, "I guess I should thank you for saving MY girlfriend," he emphasized 'MY'.
Harry just nodded and walked off to sit down in the locker rooms.
~~~
'Ginny kissed me,' he told himself, 'on the lips. She kissed me. Oh God, she has a boyfriend.' Harry hit himself on the forehead, 'Just forget it, ignore it!'
Harry steeped into a cold shower, 'Think of unhappy thoughts.' Harry paused, 'Ron in a bikini,' Harry listed, 'Fred and George becoming serious, discontinuing Chocolate Frogs, dead kittens.' Harry sat on the edge of the shower and put his head in his hands, "You just can't stop thinking of the person you love..."

Next Chapter: Learning Something...The Next Chapter might be a little offensive so I will put a big ol' fat warning at the beginning to warn people!
A/N: I think, because of the next chapter, that the ratings is going to go up, because PG-13 might not cut it... OH! And sorry about this chapter, I don't really like the way it turned out, it was so much nicer in my head.
Thank you to:
Mrs Ronald Weasley : I'm glad you like it, sorry about this chapter, it kinda sucks...
kitkat : Yeah, I think she does too! I think Ginny got over the hero crush a long time ago but now there is a different crush, something else...
Butler : Yeah it is getting that way, the next chapter is going to get worse, nothing happens but the suggestion is there.
Sadz89 : lol, yeah! I kinda like the idea of Eros but after writing this much and since I know whats going to happen and what he is really about, I don't like him anymore, I'm glad that you guys don't like him either because you are really either going to like him in a weird way or hate his guts next chapter...
duke20104 : I think your spelling is fine:) Thank you:)
