Chapter 7
Leah pondered a second, but then continued with her quest to find Ginny. Her plan was to look everywhere, and then finally the boys' dorm. She thought it smelt of a combination including unwashed socks and sour milk. Plus, the boys were already suspicious, so she didn't want to let slip now...
As she walked down the stairs into the Common Room, she heard laughter coming from the boys' dorm. Considering in her opinion, that the boys had no sense of humour, she decided to check it out. She turned and walked back up a few stairs, wondering why the boys were sniggering.
When she got to the top, she turned left and came face to face with Ron.
"Uhhh...Why are you out here?" He asked inquisitively.
"Looking for Ginny..." was the reply. "You?"
"I heard something...I guess it was you"
"Oh," Leah said, looking disappointed. "Sorry if I disturbed you."
"No, you didn't...Ginny's in here by the way." Ron smiled, blushing a light shade of maroon.
"Oh," Leah said for a second time. "Can I come and see her?"
"Yeah, follow me..."
Leah followed Ron into the dorm and was met by the familiar smell she detested so much. All the boys were snorting or sniggering, even Matthew, who very rarely smiled at all. Matthew in hand, was laying on his front, reading a rather thick book without much interest in what was going on around him, but pausing at random moments to laugh with the rest. Neville and Seamus had both joined Dean and were all eating sweets on his bed, laughing like a pack of hyenas. Harry, on the other hand, was sprawled spread eagle on the floor, staring up at a familiar redheaded girl, who was perched on Ron's bed. This was the person Leah was looking for.
"Gin...I've been looking for you!" Leah huffed.
Ginny giggled back, "I've been here the whole time."
Leah walked over to her and grabbed her upper arm lightly. She tugged and Ginny got up. As they started to walk to the door, there were numerous shouts of 'Awwwwwww' and 'Don't take Ginny!' from the boys.
"Why not?" Leah asked suspiciously.
"Because she's fun..." Neville piped up.
"And she's got a sense of humour!" Seamus added.
"Plus being sexy is also an added bonus!" Harry smirked, earning a kick in the side by Ron, who had taken up Ginny's seat on his bed.
"Well, if you all miss Ginny this much," Leah started, "Then you're welcome to come over later if you don't mind prising Hermione out of Rhian's clutches..."
All the boys, including Matthew, who had closed his book and sat up, shouted "BITCH FIGHT!" and scrambled towards the door.
"I was joking...you guys are way too easy to fool!"
With that, all the boys sat back down and Leah and Ginny exited the room.
"Great...now they're gone, let's put 'Operation Sleepover' into action!" Harry said slyly, as all the boys gathered around his bed.
