Chapter 8: First Weekend
~~~~~
Harry walked out onto the field. All the worries and woes in his life left his mind completely as the crowd cheered him on and the grass beneath his feed left became farther and farther away as he soared into the light blue sky.
Harry circled the field with Ron and Harry looked over at his best friend. "You look confident!" Harry noticed.
"And why shouldn't I?" Ron asked, eyeing the Hufflepuff team as they made their way onto the field.
Harry rolled his eyes and flew very close over a group of first year Gryffindors and they tossed confetti and streamers up in loud bangs.
Madam Hooch called them into the center and Harry took his place across from the Hufflepuff Seeker. He was a skinny third year who was shaking and avoiding Harry's gaze. He laughed at this.
Harry took the time when he should be exchanging death glares with the other team's seeker to look down at his chasers, namely at Ginny. She had just tied her hair into a messy bun and was intimidating the male chaser across from her. Harry laughed at this too.
"Annnnnnnnnnd there off!" Dean yelled into the loud speaker, "Green has the ball, tosses it to Hammond but the ball is intercepted! Gryffindor in possession, thats Ginny Weasley, what a gal! She is single now fellas!" There was a hoot of appreciation from the males in the crowd and Ginny scored flashing them a cheerful smile.
Harry groaned along with the females in the crowd as the guys cheered her on. "Gryffindor has the ball," Dean said again, "Jefferoy passes to Bell to Weasley to Bell, BELL SCORES! 20-zero Gryffindor!"
Harry saw it, the snitch. It was hovering twenty feet above and two yards over. Harry slowly shifted his broom towards it and took off. "Weasley saves a goal! Way to go, Ron! Weasley is our King, you know! Wait!" The crowd stopped, they just saw Harry soar for it but it dived and so did Harry. "He spotted the snitch!" Dean yelled. "HE CAUGHT THE SNITCH! Game over, Gryffindor WINS! 170-0!!!!" The crowd yelled and screamed the Gryffindors yelled and hugged each other making sure, at least, to shake Justin's hands, him being the Hufflepuff Captain.
Harry was ecstatic, thanks to his marvelous team, Gryffindor was in the lead for the Quidditch Cup! Harry was hugged and given congratulatory claps that if he didn't have this much of an adrenaline rush he would have fallen into the fetal position.
Ginny ran up from nowhere, hair a blaze, and grabbed Harry around the neck. "We Won!" Ginny cried. "We're number 1!" She chanted.
All the Gryffindors chanted along with her, even a few Ravenclaws began saying, "They're number 1!"
Ginny pulled away a little, all Harry could see was her smiling face, looking fresh and pink after the game, her hair flowing down to mid back and moving slightly in the breeze, and limbs and random body parts moving beyond and around them. Ginny smiled and gave Harry the warmest and most wonderful kiss on the cheek. Harry felt his knees weaken but before he got a chance to fall the two Gryffindor beaters came up behind him and gave him a group hug.
Harry was let go when Kiki walked up to him, her excited smile reminded him of Ginny. It seemed like they had the same grin, the perfect parting of the lips, the straight white teeth, the color and texture and even size were all the same, maybe thats why he hugged her more than he normally would. There was hooting from behind him from all of the fifth through seventh year Gryffindor Boys.
Kiki grabbed the sides of his face, she must have enjoyed that Quidditch match immensely. Kiki, very boldly, closed the gap between herself and her boyfriend and kissed Harry hard on the lips, their first public kiss, Harry noted.
'It is nice, don't get me wrong,' Harry told himself, 'but I still rather have that kiss Ginny gave me.' Kiki finished and kiss and, even though Harry had just told himself something very important he could help but smile at her.
~~~
Harry left the locker room to go up to the common room for the party the Gryffindor house was throwing for them. The common room was the nosiest Harry had heard it in a while. He liked it this way, it was so loud that no one noticed him hover by the refreshments or notice that he was sitting alone, on the couch, staring at a particularly stunning redhead.
It was noticeable that she had just taken a shower, her hair was damp and hung down to her midback. She was curled up in a chair, watching her friends dance and sipping a hot cocoa.
Harry smiled at her, even though she wasn't looking his way. Her face was still flushed and she sighed deeply into her chocolate drink. Harry sat back and watched her, oh what he would give to be that cup she was holding.
A blond, panting figure plopped down next to him on the sofa, her arm immediately slipping through his. "Hey, why aren't you dancing?" Kiki asked, a smile playing on her lips.
"I can't." Harry mumbled, stuffing a sugar cookie into his mouth.
"What?" Kiki asked loudly, only attracting the attention of the redhead who invaded Harry's thought process only seconds before.
"I can't dance." Harry stated, cookie crumbs flying all over his lap.
Kiki laughed, so did Ginny. Harry dusted the sugar off his pants and glared at Kiki. "Sure you can dance." Kiki looked up at her fellow Gryffindors who where bouncing up and down to the beat of the current 'rave' in wizarding music. "Just jump up and down."
Harry shook his head franticly and darted his eyes toward Ginny and back.
"Fine fine fine," Kiki stood up, "be a baby." Kiki made a very immature face.
Harry's jaw dropped, "What has gotten into you lately?"
Kiki grinned evilly and plopped right onto Harry's lap, her arms draped around his neck, "A bottle of firewiskey," she said wickedly.
"No?" Harry leaned in and smelt her breath, sure enough: alcohol. She took another swig of whatever else was in her mug.
Kiki giggled once more. "Harry, do you want to kiss me?" Kiki puckered up her lips.
Harry looked frantically over at Ginny before pushing Kiki away. "Kiki," he whispered. "We need to get you upstairs."
"Harry!" Kiki said after draining her glass, "I am not that kind of girl on the first date!" Kiki began to giggle again, "Good thing this isn't the first date!" Kiki leaned over and began kissing Harry's neck. Harry pushed her off of him. "Harry!" Kiki whined.
"Ginny," Harry said grabbing on to one of Kiki's arms, "help me get her up to her room."
Ginny put her mug of chocolate down and stood up, "All right, take off your shoes."
"What?" Harry asked, what a weird order.
Ginny pulled Kiki's other arm and pulled the both of them to the girls stairs. "Take off your shoes, that is the only way you can go up." Ginny explained.
Harry pulled off his sneakers and held them with two fingers while his hand slipped around the waist of a drowsy Kiki who began to giggle at random moments. Harry took a step up, blushing when his hand would accidentally touch Ginny's side.
They made it all the way up to the top of the stairs when Kiki fell on her bum on the top step and protested: "I don't want to go to bed, I want to go to the party!" Harry took this time to slip his tennis shoes back on.
"Come on, Kiki, why do you want to go to a stinky ol' party when we can have a make over and some quality girl talk?" Ginny persuaded. Coming from her, Harry wouldn't mind getting a new hair do and talk about what 'they' were wearing today. He suddenly got a mental image of Kiki doing his nails and Ginny helping him do a quiz in one of those teen girl magazines.
Kiki groaned and curled up on the floor. Ginny looked up pleadingly at Harry and he slipped a hand under Kiki's knees, the other he put around her shoulders and lifted her up. Ginny helped her friend by stuffing the bottom of her skirt between her legs so not to show too much to Harry.
Ginny turned and opened her dorm room door and lead Harry inside. It was just like his only clean, and girlie. The windows had femine curtains and there was posters of shirtless wizards. What was it was girls and shirtless males? Ginny pointed to Kiki's bed.
Harry carried her over and set her in the middle. Ginny helped his pull back the white pink sheets and put them over her. Harry sat down on one side of the now sleeping Kiki while Ginny sat on the other. "Your a good friend, you know?" Harry whispered.
Ginny had just set Kiki's shoes down next to her bed. "Thank you," Ginny absentmindedly tucked the blanket around Kiki more snugly. "Kiki always talks about you now." Ginny stated. "She told me how sweet you are."
Harry nodded, he wasn't sure what else to say. Ginny looked over at him and met his gaze. "She makes me jealous, you know," Ginny motioned to Kiki with her head. "She's tall, hott, and has a wonderful boyfriend."
Harry reached over and touched Ginny's hand, "You are perfect the way you are," Harry told her truthfully. Ginny looked back down at Kiki, still holding said bestfriend's boyfriend's hand. "See, your great, she found a great guy." Ginny shrugged and stood up. Harry followed her.
"Ginny?" Harry walked over to her, she had her arms crossed. Harry saw the look in her eyes and decided to lighten the mood. "How did you know that if a guy takes their shoes up and walks up stairs that the steps won't give way?"
Ginny's face broke out into an evil smile, Harry could tell that had cheered her up a bit. "Lets just say: some research and a few experiments." Harry laughed, although he wasn't sure why.

Next Chapter: Second Week, will it end short? What will Harry tell Kiki after her hangover is gone? What will Harry tell Ginny?
A/N: Howdy and hello, I have had this hankerin' to write a sequel to "This Isn't Right..." But I'm not sure, I'll think about it.
Thanks to:
SavetheSqUiRrEls : Thank you! I'll try to watch out for that, I just can't tell because, well, you know how it is...you know it in your head so no matter how many times you read it you don't catch it. Does anyone know where I can get a beta?
Sarahamanda : Thank you, I really appreciate you reviewing my chapter, it makes me feel like some people like my fic enough to take their time out and post something encouraging.
voxenking : Yes, poor Ginny! But Poor Harry too!
kitkat : I don't think he is getting attached to Kiki, well, he hasn't said anything to me about it *grins* Well, we will just have to wait and find out.
Duke20104 : Well *grins* we will just have to wait and see, what will happen? Only the fates will know. *looks into a tea cup and examines the tea leaves* Mucky brown stuff will happen...lol, or not:)
HpRoXmYnOnExIsTiNtSoX13 : Thank you, I think that if Ginny really likes Harry then it won't matter about what happened between Harry and Kiki, which nothing really did, just helpin' each other out. Soon you will find out why Kiki said yes so quickly to pretending to be Harry's girlfriend...
Darcy16 : Thank you:) You seemed to say just the right thing *wink* I have some free time so I'll go read your fic:)
k.s. : Don't worry, I won't stop.
ElizabethMM : Thank you very much, I thought the title might catch people's attention. Oh, and I have started to keep a note pad and pen by my bed so that if I have a writer's dream I can wake up and start writing the ideas down but I found out that it is difficult to write coherent words when you just had half a bottle of NiteQuil.
cgggek241 : Thank you:)
Pittsy : Would this be considered a Harry/Ginny fic if they never got together? *grins* Wait and see, fun stuff ahead!
