.: A Minute or Eternity :.
A/N: Sorry it took so long for me to update! My life has been hectic getting back to school stuff... ok I'm rambling as if you care. Here you go!
"Harry! Ginny!" they opened their eyes to Hermione "Get up before Ron comes down!"
"Ok, ok! We're up!" said Ginny.
"Gin, go pretend to go down the girls steps" said Harry. She nodded and went up the stairs a half-second before Ron came down.
"You look soaked Harry. Did you sleep down here?" Harry nodded and Ginny came down the stairs.
"Morning Ron, Hermione, Harry" she smiled at the sound of his name.
"I'm going to get dressed. You all go down" said Harry, though he gave Ginny a look telling her to stay.
"Ok mate. See you then." Ron and Hermione left hand-in-hand.
"We should get dressed" said Harry.
"It can wait" said Ginny, who then began to kiss Harry. Soon he was up against the wall, his arms around her waist, hers' around his neck.
"See someone's having a good beginning of term." Seamus came down the boys' stairs. "Never knew you had such good taste Harry. Chang is such a whiner."
"Seamus, youcannottell Ron!" said Ginny.
"Why?"
"Because Ron would have both of our heads!" said Harry.
"Ok, secret's safe with me"
"Don't tell anyone!"
"I won't! So...this is why you weren't in the room last night Harry."
"We fell asleep by the fire."
"Sure. You two better get downstairs, they're passing out schedules." he made his way to the portrait hole "and I must say, waching you two snog is alot better than watching Ron and Hermione snog. She came in about six times last night." he went out the portrait hole.
"We need to get dressed."
"Can I come to your room?"
"Gin, you know we would get sidetracked. We'll put good use to the skiving snackboxes soon, don't worry." she laughed and blew a kiss to him before going up her stairs. After coming back down, they walked to the Great Hall together, dangerously close, stealing a kiss when no one was looking. Tonks (who was their new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher) walked in one, though she just laughed.
"It's good to see teenagers in love" she said as she walked with them "Makes Hogwarts happier. I'm so glad to be back!"
"Why did you stop being an Auror."
"To tell the truth, I was being overworked and was dead tired all the time, and could almost never do work for the Order. So, when Dumbledore offered me the job, I took it. It pays less, but I can actually have fun for a change."
"Good luck having fun with the Slyterins. Malfoy hates anyone close to Dumbledore. Or who doesn't like the Dark Arts, for that matter."
Tonks didn't mind that Harry held Ginny's hand.
"You two better stop holding hands, we're about to enter the Great Hall" with as much will as he could muster, Harry pulled free from Ginny.
"See you soon!" she said, and flicked her now-brown, waist-length hair.
"What took you two?"
"I took a shower"
"So did I." said Ginny. Ron shot them a confused and slightly insane-with-anger look.
"Not together!" replied Harry. Ron looked at the skeptically before tearing back into his bacon. McGonagall passed out their schedules. Harry looked immediatly at Ginny's, then began to compare them. He had History of Magic after she had Potions, and she had Potions next, so he would see her while going to class, giving them 3 minuted before going to their next class alone...
"We have Herbology first." said Hermione, who barely glanced at her schedule, and was now reading the Daily Prophet. After breakfast, Harry and Ginny went back up to Gryffindor Tower to say good-bye and he held her in a five-minute kiss that made them both late.
"Love you, Gin."
"Love you too" she said, kissing him once more before running to Potions.
A/N: Once again, sorry for this being late. Next chapter, Ron finds out! Woo hoo!
