When Will He Notice Me?
Chapter one: The Burrow
A girl with flaming red hair stared at her windows looking up at the stars.
'I love him so much.' She thought 'But all he sees me as is his best
friend's little sister. I just wish he would notice me. But when? When will
he notice me?'
She got in to bed, and drifted off to sleep.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Harry put down his quill and looked at his clock. Midnight. He was fifteen.
There was a sound at his window. Owls. He went over and opened the window
to let them in.
He opened the one from Ron first.
IHey Harry,
Happy Fifteenth Birthday! Can you come over tomorrow? We'll pick you up
around 10! See you then!
Ron
P.S. Ginny would kill me, but she has been moping all summer. She misses
you. Better not date her though!/I
'Why wouldn't I?' Harry thought. 'She is so cute.' Harry shook himself
'What am I thinking?! She is Ron's sister!'
Harry pushed Ginny to the back of his mind. He wrote back a quick letter.
IRon,
Ok, see you then. I can't wait.
HarryI
Then he tied the letter to Pig's leg (Which was hard cause Pig was fling
around crazily) and threw Pig out the window and Pig flew off.
Harry opened the present. It was a 10 sickle gift certificate for Quality
Quidditch Supplies. Harry grinned. It wasn't much, but the Weasley's were
poor so that was okay. Besides, he ,IlovedI Quidditch. He opened the
one from Hermione.
I]Dear Harry,
Happy Birthday. I have a confession. As I'm writing these words, I'm
trembling I don't know if writing a note about this seems lame, but I'd be
too embarrassed to tell you face to face. But I really like you. But I
don't want this to ruin our friendship. I just thought you deserve to know
my feelings.
Love,
HermionI
Wow. Harry thought. He IhadI been thinking about her this summer.
Hadn't he? Harry did not dwell on the thought any longer. He could still
remember how stunningly pretty she looked at the Yule Ball last year. He
wrote back to her.
IDear Hermione,
I have been thinking about you. I remember how beautiful you looked at the
Yule Ball in fourth year. I like you. Will you be my girlfriend?
Love,
HarryI
Harry tied the letter to Hedwig's leg (who delivered the letter) and she
took off out the window.
The present was a Rolex watch.
'Cool!' thought Harry, taking off his old broken one he had been wearing
out of habit and put the new one on. He admired it for a minute. Then he
opened the letters from Hogwarts and Hagrid.
Harry put the letters and things away, got back into bed and went to sleep.

Ginny woke up the next morning at 7. She reached over to her nightstand,
and picked up a leather bound book and quill. She opened the book to where
the bookmark was. It was he diary.
iDear Diary,
I dreamed about him again last night. We were in the meadow, the sun shone
brightly, and he told me he loved me. But that would never happen in real
life, no matter how much I love him. Because I'm how best friend's sister,
he would never love me. But as long as he is happy, I am ok with that. I
value him more than life itself. I love him.
Today he is coming to the burrow for the rest of vacation. I can't wait to
see him, oh I've missed him so! He comes at 10, it is 7:15. I don't think
I can wait any longer! I'll get ready now. And I also must help mum
prepare for his surprise birthday party. Yesterday was his birthday. i
She locked her diary and put it in her desk drawer and put the quill away.
She got a pink skirt, white shirt, a pink ribbon, and headed off to take a
hot shower. After wards, she felt refreshed. She got dressed, and brushed
her hair for a long time, distracted by thoughts of Harry. When she
noticed she had been combing her hair for an hour, she stopped. She had
combed her hair for such a long time. Her hair shone in the light. It was
perfect. Like silk. She the braided her hair and tired it with the pink
ribbon. She slipped on her white sandals, and ran downstairs to the
kitchen where Mrs. Weasley was cooking.
"My, you are up early" Mrs. Weasley said. She looked at her daughter "You
look beautiful"
"Thanks, mum" she said, hoping Harry would think the same. "Do you need
help with anything?"
"Yes dear, thank you. You can make the frosting of this cake."
"Sure mum" She got out the proper utencils and ingredients and started.
Ginny had so much fun helping her mother, she didn't know how fast time
flew by.
At 9:50, Ron came running down the stairs "Mum, are you ready to pick up
Harry? We have to be there in ten minutes!"
"Calm down Ron, the car from the Ministry will be here soon. Eat some
breakfast while you wait."
Ron greedily eyed Mrs. Weasley's cake, which Ginny was putting the
finishing touches of frosting on.
"Don't you dare go near that cake until the party!" she scolded, taking a
batch of cookies out of the oven."
"Yes Mum" Ron sighed. He got five pieces of toast and ate them all.
"Aren't you a piggy" said Ginny, who finished frosting.
"I only ate six!" (he had eaten one while she was talking) he protested.
"You are eating a LOT and quickly, PIG!"
"Shut up Gin"
"Oink oink"
"GINNY!!!"
"OINK"
"THAT'S IT!" he got up and chased her around the kitchen. Ginny screamed
and ran. She was cornered. Ron was about to lunge at her when he heard a
honking outside.
"That must be the car!" he shouted and ran out the door. Ginny breathed a
sigh of relief. Mrs. Weasley followed. "Coming, Ginny dear?" she asked.
Ginny was a little too nervous. "Ummm, Ah, no. I got to keep an eye on this
to make sure no one eats it and, umm, Hermione will be here soon." She
said, her face growing pink.
"Ok"
Fred and George came thundering down the stairs, nearly running Ginny over.
"Did you say you." Started George.
"Are picking Harry up?" Fred finished.
"Yes," Mrs. Wealsey said. "Why?"
"Yes! Time to tourment the fat dummy!" whispered George.
"What?" Mrs. Weasley said sternly.
"Nothing! So, can we come?" responded Fred angelically.
"I guess. Hop in"
Gred and Forge hopped out the out like bunny rabbits into the car.
Mrs Weasley rolled her eyes and got in.
Ginny sat down in a chair in a kitchen, trying to eat a piece of toast, but
was unable to. She swung her legs nervously. Time ticked by slowly.
Finally, she heard the door open, and Mr. Weasley walked in with Hermione.
"Hermione!" shouted Ginny, running over. "Hi!"
"Hi Ginny!" Hermione said, hugging her hello.
The two sat down at the table together.
"Where's Ron?" asked Hermione.
"Picking up Harry," responded Ginny, with a slight blush at the sound of
Harry's name.
"So, how has your summer been?"
"Oh, it has been wonderful!" exclaimed Hermione. I visited Bulgaria, but I
had to tell Viktor I could only offer friend ship. Then my parents and I
visited Hawaii. It is wonderful there. The weather is perfect, the grains
of sand are so soft, the ocean and the sunset are beautiful..and I wrote to
Harry this summer, I told him I like him. Isn't that ?"
"Oh," said Ginny disappointed. Her heart was crushed. "Yeah, that's
wonderful."
"So, what about your summer?"
"Oh, it's been fine," said Ginny with sadness in her voice. "I think I'll
go upstairs now.."
"Is anything wrong?"
"No, nothing."
"Ginny,"
"Hermioen. It's just that, I-I- Iloveharryok."
"What?"
"I love Harry, ok?!" Ginny shouted, and ran to her room and slammed the
door.
A minuete later, she heard Hermione come in. "Oh, Ginny," she said sitting
down next to Ginny, and giving her a hug(Ginny was lying on her bed with
her face in her pillow). "I had no idea."
"Does Harry like you?"
"Yes, he does."
"Ok then," chocked Ginny, whipping the tears that flowed freely down her
cheeks away. "If you make him happy, then I'll be happy." She gave Hermione
a weak smile.
They then heard the door slam, and a sound of feet running up the stairs.
Ron, Mrs. Wealsey, the twins, and Harry had arrived at the Burrow.
"FRED! GEORGE! GET BACK HERE! YOU ARE IN BIG TROUBLE! HOW COULD YOU DO
THAT?" Mrs. Wealsey screamed.
