Title: Invitations
Harry awoke the next morning feeling oddly empty. Ginny was gone, and he looked at his watch. It was 7:30. "Shit!" He said angrily. Harry knew breakfast started at 8:00. Harry jumped up off the bed and ran to his room. He showered, dressed, and arrived in the Great Hall for breakfast at 10 to. He sat in the same spot next to Ginny as he had the night before.
"Morning Ginny." He said yawning as he sat.
"Good morning, Harry." She said cheerfully as she handed him a cup of coffee. "Here, you'll need this today."
Harry chuckled sleepily, "Thanks."
"Harry I want to thank you for last night." She said spooning eggs onto her plate. "Talking about it, and finally crying, really helped." She continued while taking two pieces of toast, and then picking several pieces of bacon.
"Don't mention it." Harry said grinning, because Ginny was now (while trying to be polite) shoveling food into her mouth as fast as possible. She looked like Ron when he ate.
"Wut?" she said mouth full of a combination of egg, and toast. She swallowed. "Sorry, I haven't really eaten properly since and I'm starved."
"Glad to see you back to yourself, Gin." Harry took this time to really survey the students for the first time. He had 45 minuets left before his first class, 3rd year Ravanclaw's. Harry downed 4 more cups of coffee in the prospect.
Harry sat on the edge of his bed at 10:30 that night, and flopped down backwards arms outstretched. He was beat. The day had gone well, it was just the fact that he had been up until 1:30 in the morning, and his caffeine buzz had warn off at about 3:00. His stomach growled. Harry had skipped lunch to take a little nap on the sofa in his office, but it hadn't helped in the least, if anything it make him more tired, the tease of a short nap mad him long for more. He had also skipped dinner, because of the same reason. He stood up and headed for the kitchens.
When Harry stepped through the door, he saw Draco, and Neville sitting at the table talking.
"Hi guys." Harry said by way of greeting. "Long time Neville. How've you been?" He asked as an elf brought him a plate, and began eating.
"Great Harry. It's wonderful to see you again. Have an enjoyable first day of teaching?" He asked, looking just as tired as Harry did.
"Oh yes. Other than being extremely tired." He said yawning, and taking a few more bites.
"I wonder why…" Draco said in mock wonder. "I heard for an elf (Draco glanced at who looked like Dobby) that he saw you coming out of a certain Ms. Weasley's room this morning, looking rather disheveled." He continued arching an eyebrow.
"You did, did you? Well I assure you nothing happened, we only talked." He said finishing his pate.
"All night?" Neville piped in.
"Well, no. Not all night, we both kinda fell asleep." He said blushing even though it was the all out truth.
"Sure…" Draco said in an accusing voice. "Speaking of relationships, is it true about Ronald and Hermione?" he asked with interest.
Harry wasn't sure if they wanted anyone to know yet, but said "I'm not sure if I should tell you, but yes."
"Knew it!" Draco said happily, lightly pounding his fist on the table.
The three of them spent the next few minuets catching up, and reminiscing, before Harry excused himself to go to bed. Harry left the kitchens with a full belly, and sleepy eyes.

Over the next few weeks Harry kept finding himself thinking about Ginny. On one of his 'trips to lala land' He had run head long into Hermione, carrying a rather tall stack of books.
"Harry!?!?! Watch where you're going would you?!?! She shrieked.
"Oh. Sorry Hermione I've just been thinking is all." He said picking up the books for her.
It was Friday after classes and Harry was walking to his room from a get-together with Ron. He was once again thinking about Ginny. There was no use he would have to ask her on a date, or something.
When Harry arrived in his room, he ascended the stairs to his office in a daze thinking about Ginny. He sat down at his desk to grade some homework, when an owl soared through the open window. It was a note from Ginny. His heart leapt. It read:
Harry meet me for dinner at the Three Broomsticks tomorrow night, at 7:30.
~Ginny
Well there it was. Ginny had done it for him, he thought.

A/N: I am so… sorry! This was so… short. One of my shortest, but chapter 12 will be worth it though. REVIEW! All reviewers get a BROWNIE! Also, ill be taking a SHORT break from RtH (what I call my fic for short) not like a long one. It will still be about a week before chapter 12, but I'll be doing a one shot about who else other than H/G. It will be a song fic as well as incorporate 2 original poems I wrote over a year ago. Please read it when its up.
Ps. I was reading this fic the other day. It was about The gang going to Hermione's for Christmas, and Ginny discovers HP fanfiction on day on the net. I didn't add it to my faves on accident. Does anyone know the name of it!?!?!?
