Chapter 4: The Meeting.
A/N: Um… I don't have much to say here other than PLEASE review, and on paper this chappie was 3 pages. I really hate that my chapters are short, but I can't bring myself to write big chapter, ideas just don't come to me easy, I mean I pondered for days what I wanted to happen in this chapter. Oh well.

Harry awoke and upon opening his eyes, saw only the blurred ceiling of his flats' bedroom. Harry stood up and placed his glasses on his face. He took a few steps forward, only to find himself flat on his face. "Bloody Hell!" he growled sleepily. Forgetting he had moved it he had tripped over his trunk holding his belongs, and clothes, to be moved to Hogwarts.
After visiting the loo, Harry poured himself a bowl of Lucky Charms. As he levitated the milk to pour the milk in the bowl, he looked at the calendar. Today was August 23rd. The day he was suppose to meet Ron, Hermione, and Ginny in the Three Broomsticks.
Harry Pulled on a clean pair of boxers. (a/n: you naughty, naughty reader! You were picturing Harry naked weren't you! Lol. I was too!) It took Harry several tries to decide which pants to wear. He finally chose a pair of khaki's. The shirt took even longer. After about 15 minuets he settled on a blue dress shirt and tucked it in. He didn't know why he wanted to look nice, but 'hey he hadn't seen any of them in nearly 2 years'. He un-tucked the shirt.
Harry apperated to the Three Broomsticks at 2:30 and saw his friends, sitting in in the far corner back booth. Harry noticed right away something was bothering her, she just looked different, not a good different.
Harry walked over to them, and they all stood up, and embraced the friend they hadn't seen in such a long time, and had nearly lost.
"Congratulations Harry!" Hermione said as she hugged him.
"Yeah mate, congrats." Ron echoed.
"I'm so happy for you." Ginny said as she embraced him.
'Hum.' Harry thought. 'She seems fine now. Maybe I was imagining it.' "For what?" He asked out loud.
"For becoming a teacher!" Ginny responded. As they sat back in the booth.
"How did you find out. I wan ganna tell you guys." Harry said rather disappointed.
"We talked to Draco after we talked to you. Thought owl post of course. And his reply said he couldn't come today..blah, blah, blah. And he mentioned you two were teachers." Ron answered.
"That dirty bastard!" Harry said jokingly, they all laughed, except for Ginny she was staring out the window. Something was definitely wrong. He would have to talk to her. He had to admit it, he always had a tiny crush on her. Even if he would never act on it. (Hermione had told him she was over him, by the time he realized it.)
"Ron and I have some good news too." Hermione said, shooting a glace at Ron.
"Yeah." Ron said. "We too are teachers!" He continued.
"Oh my god!" Harry and Ginny both said this together, this was totally unexpected. Ginny seemed herself suddenly again.
"What do you guys teach." Harry asked.
"I teach Muggle Studies Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. As well as Arithmancy on Tuesday, and Thursday." Hermione said, almost giddy.
"I teach," Ron chimed in "the first years flying, and Wizard Sporting History, as well as referee the Quidditch season." He continues.
"Wow guys that's great!" Ginny said hugging Hermione (they were seated next to each other)
Harry congratulated, and gave them both hugs.
"'Mione why don't we go get drinks to celebrate?" Ron suggested.
"Yeah. OK." Hermione said standing up and following Ron across the room to the bar.
"Ginny?" Harry said gently.
"Hum?" Was her only response, she was staring our the window again looking depressed.
"What's wrong?" He asked
"What do you mean, Harry?"
"What's wrong? You don't seem yourself." He stated.
"Oh nothing. I'm fine." She said rather gloomily.
"You sure?" He asked, but she didn't have time to reply for at that moment, Ron and Hermione came back with Butterbeers for them all.

A/N: Ok I realized that by this chapter, the direction this story is going is totally different then what I had excepted it to be. At first I was ganna make it like a 5 chappie story just like it is except Ginny is all happy and bubbly, and when they get to school, Her and Harry fall in love. Well I changed my mind. I don't even know if I want them to fall in love anymore. I mean I think they belong together but…you'll just have to read on!
