oreo69not96- Eagle eyes! I'll edit for typos once the story is complete. I'm glad you like it so far! Also, don't worry. I know it was wrong of Ginny to do it, and I've got a punishment for her. But she still has her friends..maybe not Harry, but Hermione's supportive of her.
obsessed87- Sorry! I'll try and post faster. I've been so busy lately...but now I should be able to write more.
whathefuckever- Yes, it is under H/G, but only because at the time, I was still deciding where it would start off with Harry or Draco. And because I had readers review at the first chapter, I didn't change it by the time Ginny was with Draco. That way it might leave a suspicion that Harry and Ginny will somehow get together. Or so I had hoped, but in your case, obviously not! I would answer your questions more in depth, but I'd rather not reveal the plot...all I can say is it will be revealed eventually.
Thanks for all of your reviews, keep them coming!))
Ginny awoke early the next morning. Hermione was prodding her arm.
"We have to go now or else people will notice when they wake up." Hermione said.
"Where are Harry and Draco?" Ginny asked.
"They already left. Harry needs to talk to you, though. Or so he said last night. I'm not sure if that's still the case." Hermione replied.
"Okay." Ginny answered. And then, unable to bear it anymore, she asked what was on her mind. "Can you cast the spell? I really need to know."
Hermione nodded, and muttered the words. Immediately, a white glow shone around Ginny's body.
"That's strange..." Hermione said.
"What is it?" Ginny asked, fighting to keep her voice calm.
"I don't know. If it's a boy, the light is blue. If it's a girl, it's pink...." Hermione began.
"I'm not pregnant then?" Ginny questioned. Hermione shook her head.
"Well...if you weren't pregnant, there would be no glow. I don't understand. " Hermione said quietly.
"Damn. Isn't that just like magic... when I really need it, it doesn't come through." Ginny growled. She threw on her robes, and headed quickly up to the Gryffindor room. Hermione followed sympathetically, after deciding to read up on the spell more to find out what it could mean.
"We have a pretty long time...want to study?" Hermione asked, hoping to take Ginny's mind away from her dilemma. Ginny was about to refuse, when Harry entered the common room from the boys dorm. He didn't look directly at Ginny, but immediately headed back up the stairs.
"Harry, wait." Hermione called. Harry turned around.
"Come sit." Hermione invited. Sighing to himself, Harry headed down the stairs and sat down in a crimson chair. Ginny looked up at him, but he focused only on Hermione.
"Harry? I heard you had to tell me something..." Ginny began awkwardly. Only then did Harry's green eyes glance over to her.
"Oh. It's not important," he said, shrugging. Hermione glared at him.
"Yes it is."
"It was." Harry corrected. And then he fell silent, trying to end the conversation.
"Ginny had a right to know, Harry." Hermione said. Ginny was feeling upset and near tears. She had an idea as to why Harry was angry.
At last, Harry spoke. "Fine. I was going to tell you...tell you that..." he began. He paused, and took a deep breath. "I was going to tell you that I loved you. But you're clearly happy with Malfoy." he said. Then he rose, and made to head back up the stairs. Ginny tried to gave the sleeve of his robes to keep him back; so she could explain. He moved out of reach and headed back up the stairs.
Moments later, Ron came down.
"Hermione, Ginny! I haven't seen either of you for a while. Why are you up so early?" he asked. Ginny scowled to herself. She had already gotten Harry pissed at her, and she might as well admit it to Ron now.
"Ron, I have something to tell you." Ginny began. Her eyes welled up with tears and though she fought them back, she caught a sympathetic look from Hermione. Ginny didn't like pity, but she was glad Hermione was being a supportive friend.
Ron didn't seem too interested but Ginny's next sentence was a blow to him. After all, her was Ginny's older brother, and quite protective of her.
"I think I'm pregnant." Ginny stated quietly but firmly. Ron let out a choking noise and Hermione rushed to his side. After a moment of tension between Ginny and Ron, and soothing from Hermione, Ron seemed to recover.
"With...who?" He asked shakily. Ginny noticed he looked paler than usual. Btu there was no way he was feeling as horrible as she was.
"Malfoy." Ginny said quietly. This was it...Ron would surely have a heart attack. Hermione came to her rescue just as Ron's pale face turned bright red with hate and anger.
"It's not for sure. I'm stopping by at the library today or tomorrow to do some reading up." Hermione added. Ron seemed to calm down, but only slightly.
"Go to class now, Ginny." was all Ron said. Slowly Ginny rose and headed out the portrait hole with her books. She would be early for class, but did not want to be with Ron when he started shouting.
Luckily, Hermione calmed him down. His mood changed into worry for his little sister.
"She's too young. She can't take care of a baby...especially Malfoy's." he said. Hermione sighed. Ginny really had gotten herself into a mess.
Meanwhile, Ginny was heading to Potions with the sixth year Slytherins. She was relieved to find that nobody mentioned her possible pregnancy. So either Draco had kept last night a secret or he'd threatened them not to say a word to her. However, after class, she ran into Malfoy.
"Hey, Weasley. How's it going?" he asked smoothly, and completely unaware of what Ginny was now going through.
"Nothing, Malfoy. Nothing at all." Ginny retorted. She felt snappish towards him. But it wasn't his fault, really...
"Somebody's cranky today. A little sore?" Malfoy drawled, grinning. Come to think of it, Ginny's legs were a little sore. But that wasn't on her mind. She suddenly realized what she had to do.
"Draco, we're done. It's over." Ginny said.
((Yes, I realize it's short...but I love cliffhangers, and it was too tempting to leave it there. But I'm back at home with no writer's block so there will be another chapter up shortly. I'll try to make them longer, as one reviewer requested. With the exception of this chapter. Please read and review.))
