Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or any of the characters. I never said
I did. That better?
Thanks to all my reviewers!!
A lazy contest is where two or more people sit in a circle and be lazy. If one person wants to know the time they will ask, generally not in proper English (e.g. were thime?, the extra 'h' in time is to save pronouncing the consonant correctly.) And the game continues in this fashion. For those slow people who haven't yet noticed: I am the best at this: when there is a clock next to me, I will generally ask the time.
If you want any translations then I am happy to help!!

Chapter 2.
At lunch, Ginny went to the Great Hall with Harry, Ron and Hermione and sat facing the Slytherin table. She noticed immediately that Draco wasn't there.
She rushed down her food and then excused herself to go to the common room to catch up of homework.
On her way out, she saw Draco on his own, walking towards her.
When he got within earshot she said, "Sweet dreams Draco." And hurried off.
Draco thought nothing of this at first and carried on walking, but then he registered it.
Ginny went to the common room but she didn't do any homework: she just sat in a corner and planned for later that night...
When the bell rang for the end of lunch, Ginny made her way out of the portrait hole and down towards Herbology.
On her way towards the greenhouses, she saw the bleach blond hair of Draco Malfoy, flanked by Pansy Crabbe and Goyle. She laughed quietly, unaware that she was doing so. She then walked into the greenhouse, it was about half full.
She took her place, next to Colin Creevey and waited for Professor Sprout to begin the lesson.
Today they were working on the properties of the Clamaitus and its uses in potion making and healing.
Professor Sprout gave them a huge essay on it and to make it worse: it had to be in by the next day.
***
When the last bell went, Ginny rushed back to the Gryffindor common room to get her homework done in time for her plan to work.
First of all, she grabbed her Herbology homework and started that. They had to do 12 inches of parchment and that would not be easy, especially if you weren't listening.
She had done about 5 inches when the portrait hole opened again and in walked Harry, Ron and Hermione. They saw that Ginny was back and went over to talk.
"Hello, Ginny!" Said Hermione as they walked over to see her.
"Hi." She said distractedly.
"Ah, doing your homework already, I'm glad to see someone is listening to me." Said Hermione, looking sternly at Harry and Ron, who had put their bags down in a small pile and just sat down lazily, and then warmly back at Ginny.
"No, I'm just busy later. I wouldn't be doing this if it weren't for that.
Hermiones smile faded slightly and then, she too put down her bag and sat.
Ginny found it very annoying when people distracted her while she was concentrating. She roughly finished the essay, making her writing larger and bigger gaps between the words and lines.
She rolled it up and started on her Divination, which also didn't take her very long.
Hermione watched her disapprovingly and got her books out too. "Why, I'm going to start my homework." She said looking at Harry and Ron who were having a lazy contest.
(For an explanation of what a lazy contest is: look at the top, somewhere
above the title.)
Ron just ignored her and Harry gave a small grunt. Hermione shook her head and said "Pitiful." Harry and Ron ignored this comment.
When dinnertime came they finally moved out of their positions.
"Not coming, Ginny?" Said Ron, when she continued with her homework.
"No, still got loads to do." She said, still writing.
Ginny kept on working until she had finished most of it. She walked around the quiet common room, stretching, and then went back to work.
She was still writing when the others came back from dinner. Ron went up to her and felt her head. "Ginny, are you feeling OK?" he asked.
"Yes, why?" she asked, confused.
Ron took a deep breath and said. "You have been working constantly, it's not like you. Are you sure you're OK?"
"Yes." She said impatiently.
She carried on with her homework until she finished it. She then sat down and relaxed a bit. Hermione was still doing hers and was occasionally throwing Harry and Ron dirty looks.
Harry and Ron had continued their lazy contest to see who would win.
"Were thime?" asked Harry.
"Err." Said Ron.
"Errorrr." He said back
"Vinny, were thime?" said Ron lazily.
Ginny decided to join them in their lazy contest for a while, until it was time... "Air?" She said.
"Were thime, Vinny?" said Harry, getting impatient.
"Err... I urro, ook." Ginny hadn't quite mastered the speech but she had the right idea of missing out as many consonants as possible.
Harry then gave up and made the huge effort of looking down at his watch, which he seemed very displeased about.
"Nah ook werya mamie oo!" He said.
Ron and Ginny grunted in unison.
Eventually, after about 5 minutes of silence apart from Hermiones 'tut's, Ginny spoke. "Were thime, On?"
"Urro." Said Ron.
"Arrie?" She said.
"I or thellin oo, oo mamie ook." Said Harry.
"Alright, I give up." She said. "Hermione, what's the time?"
"About ten to eleven." She said, looking up at the big clock.
Ginny swore, grabbed her bag and ran off up the girls staircase. The common room was almost deserted now, and Ginny had to put her plan into action.
A few seconds later she was heard running back down the stairs at full speed and out of the portrait hole. Everyone looked as the portrait swung closed.
"were see ofta?" Asked Ron.
"Barf prolly, see arra towl wiffa." Said Harry, who was facing the portrait hole anyway.
