A/N: Oh my god guys! You are seriously amazing! I got so many reviews for last chapter! It's freakin awesome! On another note, my first three days of school were pretty good. Miraculously, I like all my teachers. But holy crap. I can't understand a freakin word my French teacher is saying. I completely forgot everything over the summer. It's so bad. Hopefully it'll come back to me. But Read and Review! Thanks!
blink gurl017: Yeah the face in cake thing is a bit overdone, but I thought it fit nicely there. Haha a little confused were we? Lol I know what you mean.
OExpecto PatronumO: Yay! I'm glad you found it entertaining and enjoyable! Haha that makes me feel good. I could totally see Ginny sending a letter to her mom about Ron in the books. I know if I were Ginny I'd do it. I be like...watch out brother of mine, you're in for a surprise. Lol I had to have them have some kind of little kiss, even if it wasn't real. Everyone's getting anxious. Lol Thanks for the review!
actionmaster: Freshman year isn't really as bad as everyone makes it out to be. As far as school goes my freshman year was fine. I had a lot of fun actually. I used to live in Pennsylvania near New York and such, and we went back after Labor Day. But we also got out at the end of June. Which really sucked. But enough of my rambling. Lol.
Xauroraborealisx: Haha your guess was correct! She was like a walking disaster. Lol Everything that could go wrong kept going wrong. That seems to happen to me too actually. Not quite as bad as Ginny, but pretty bad. I'm such a klutz and I'm always falling and things of that nature. Haha don't worry he'll kiss her soon! :)
Black Cherrie: Yay! I'm glad you thought it was funny! Ginny has sucky luck. And I read your story, and I loved it! I'm so sorry that I couldn't leave an actual review. My computer is being a piece of crap, and it won't let me. But I definitely thought your story was really good, so I just wanted you to know that! :)
ElizabethMM: Haha actually I thought of Harry's reaction first when I was sitting reading, story ideas popped into my head. And I thought about that, and I was like, what could make him react like that? Lol and that's what happened. His reaction was one of my favorite things to write last chapter.
Maraudergrl99: Dude if any of that stuff had happened to me I'd probably be freaking out on the inside. But I'd probably laugh at myself, because I'm so used to doing things like that. Lol. You should check out some of the bands I listed. They're good. Lol. But I really love Something Corporate. I think my favorite song by them is Konstantine. That's such a beautiful song. But I love all of their songs. Disneyworld is so much fun! I love it so much. I've been there like 10 times, cause its in Florida and I live in Georgia. I'd definitely love to email and talk on IM. But I don't get on I'm very much. But I do check my email like fifty times a day. Lol. My email is . So feel free to email me of you want! :)
Darkflower2113: Haha. I seriously didn't know how to announce that she made Quidditch so I just decided to put that. Lol I'm glad you thought it was funny. Yeah the kissing thing was a bit unexpected. I figured, what the hell? Lol. That makes me feel special that you think I do comedy well! Lol. Harry will make a move soon. But now before he's completely stupid. Lol.
Miss Hogwarts: I'm so glad you found it hilarious! Lol Here's the update and I hope you like it! :)
Elizabeth: Haha thanks for the review. I actually know what you mean about having to get out late. I used to live in Pennsylvania. So we got a hell of a lot of snow days. But I love the snow, so I never really minded. Lol.
obsessed87: Oh my god. That AWW SNAP thing made me laugh so hard! I'm glad you thought it was good! Here's the update! :)
MarauderRaven: Haha they make you blush. That made me smile. Lol I rock! Yay! You get a cookie for saying I rock! Lol.
B19: Haha Yay! That review was so full of compliments! It made me so happy! Lol. I'm glad you think I write from Ginny's point of view well! Thanks so much for the great review!
A Harry and Ginny Dreamer: Oh my gosh Ashley! I haven't seen your name on here in a while! I'm glad you have returned. Lol. I so hope something like my moonlight swim happens in the books! That'd be amazing! I would dance around in joy. Lol Thanks for the review, for it made me smile! :)
JediPirateElfyDude: Haha my mom always tells me to shut up. Lol. I'll be like cracking up, and she's like, what's your problem? Lol. See my problem is, once I start laughing I have a hard time stopping. So in school and stuff that's always a problem. Lol
Katie: Oh my gosh! So lucky that you don't start for another 2 and a half weeks. But the first couple days of school actually haven't been that bad. Which is good. Lol
Milky way bar: Yay! I'm happy you thought it was funny! I hope you like this one just as much! :)
And thanks to: moo, REALbluelightsaber, AnAnimeChickie, and Loves to Read. You guys are awesome! Thanks so much for the reviews! :)
How much more humiliating can you get? I can't even describe it. Everyone was laughing and I just wanted to cry. So I ran up the stairs as fast as I could. I got cleaned up, and now I'm sitting here. I hear someone calling my name. I suppose I'll have to go back down to the party. Hopefully it won't be too disastrous.
Chapter Sixteen: I've Messed Up
September 21st, 1:30 pm
Oh god. Why am I up so late? My head feels like someone is taking a sledgehammer to it. Everything's all fuzzy. What happened last night? I can't remember. Somehow I don't think that's a good sign. Oh no. What did I do? Shit. This is bad. I need to find someone who can tell me what happened.
A few minutes laterOkay that was weird. I walked downstairs to the common room and Harry was sitting down there.
"Harry?" I called.
He turned around and looked at me. All of a sudden he made a deer caught in headlights type of expression. I didn't know what the hell was going on.
"Harry?" I asked again.
"I uh...have to go." He stuttered out.
Then he took off through the portrait hole. What the hell did I do? Something must have happened to make him like that. But what? I am in deep shit.
2:37 pm
Oh god. Oh god. Oh god. My life is officially over. This time I am not over exaggerating. I can never face him again. I will stay in my room forever. I'm never coming out. Ever. I can barely tell about what happen. But I suppose I have to.
After I returned to the dormitory, I sat for a while contemplating what I could have done. A few minutes later Hermione came waltzing in with an enormous smile on face.
"What are you so happy about? You and Ron have a nice screw?" I said sarcastically. I immediately regretted saying that. That is one revolting mental image. Please excuse me while I vomit.
Hermione turned and looked at me. She blushed scarlet, and all of a sudden was wearing a very odd expression herself.
"Uh hi Ginny." She said stumbling over her words.
"What did I do Hermione?" I asked fearfully.
"What do mean? I'm not sure if I'm following you." Hermione replied while looking the opposite direction.
"Hermione! What did I do?" I asked again, trembling.
"Are you sure you really want to know?" She asked cautiously.
"Yes." I answered with a gulp.
"Alright."
"Um well, last night at the party you got a little pissed. Uh actually more than a little. You were stumbling around and slurring your words. And acting very friendly, if you know what I mean. So you walked up to Harry and began chatting with him. If you can call stumbling over your words incoherently chatting. Then you gazed at him for a while. You then proceed to lean in and uh wait for him to kiss you. He didn't. So you flew into a rage. I believe what you said was, DAMMIT HARRY YOU STUPID GIT! WHY DON'T YOU JUST KISS ME ALREADY? AM I THAT UNAPPEALING? JESUS CHRIST! And then you stormed off tipsily to the dormitory."
"I DID WHAT?" I screamed.
Hermione winced and gave me a sad smile.
"Oh don't you smile at me!" I snapped.
"My life is over! I will never be able to face him again!"
"Ginny, relax. Harry will get over it. He's just shocked is all." Said Hermione calmly.
"Relax? Relax? Are you actually telling me to relax? You're out of your bloody mind! I will never relax over this!" I cried.
"Oh god. What am I going to do?" I asked miserably.
"Just give him time Ginny." Hermione said yet again.
"Time? That's all you ever say he needs! And I have given him time! Guess what's happened? Nothing! No obviously he doesn't need time. He just doesn't feel the same as I do. I'll just have to face that." I said with a tear slipping down my face.
Hermione noticed and wrapped me in a tight hug. I sobbed into her shoulder for what seemed what forever. When my tears finally subsided, I pulled away.
"I think I need some time alone Hermione. Thanks for being here." I said sadly
"Alright. I'm here if you need." She replied.
Hermione gave me a quick hug and then left the room. I'm absolutely miserable. I can't believe I did that. Now Harry probably wants nothing to do with me. How could he? If he hasn't kissed me yet and he didn't kiss me last night, then he obviously feels nothing for me. It hurts like hell to know that. Things are coming back to me now. I remember yelling that at him. I didn't even know that I was drinking. All I had was Butterbeer. Someone must have spiked it. And the one after that, and the one after that. I'm so stupid. How could I have not realized. But it didn't taste any different. So I guessed I just figured they were regular old butterbeers. But they weren't, and now everything has gone to hell! I'm going to kill whoever spiked those butterbeers. They are dead.
How could I let this happen? I should have never gone back down to the party. I should have stayed in my room like a good girl. But no. I had to go all optimistic and think that maybe the party would be better than I thought. Well obviously it wasn't. DAMMIT! I feel like I'm going to have a mental breakdown. They should just take me away already. I'm no use here anymore. Harry doesn't like me, I'm in a fight with my brother, and I'm doing crappy in Potions. You can't get much worse. At least Hermione and I are still friends. I don't know what the bloody hell I'd do if we weren't. I think I'm going to flee the country. I sure want to get out of here right now.
7:30 pm
Earlier someone came knocking on my door.
"Who dares to interrupt my solitude?"
"It's me Ginny." Said Hermione.
"Oh alright. Come in."
Hermione walked into the room, and flipped on the light. I've been sitting in the dark all day.
"Ginny, you have to eat something. Come with me to the Great Hall and get dinner."
"No. I refuse to step foot out of this room."
"Ginny come on. Please." Hermione pleaded.
"No. I would not go down there even if you paid me." I said firmly.
"Ginny! Get your ass out of bed right now and come to dinner!" Hermione screamed.
Needless to say, she scared me into submission. I thought she was going to bite my head off if I didn't go.
"Oh alright."
"That's the Ginny I know and love."
"Oh shut up."
Hermione and I walked down to the Great Hall. She was doing the talking and I was doing the ignoring. I hesitated before opening the doors.
"Come on Ginny. It'll be all right." Hermione said reassuringly.
With a deep breath, I shoved open the doors. The Hall was completely full.
"Okay looks like there's no seats. What a pity." I said while turning around.
"Oh no you don't." Hermione said while steering me back around.
I gulped and we stepped into the Hall. The light seemed too bright, and everything too perfect. I scowled, and hung my head. When we reached the table, I sat down without a word. Thankfully Harry was a few seats away from me. But he kept looking my way. It was really irritating. Yes, I had made a complete ass of myself. But he didn't have to keep looking at me like I was some kind of mental case. So I focused on looking down at my plate. I didn't even glance up for the rest of dinner. When I excused myself and walked away, I didn't say goodbye to anyone. I was out of the Hall and in the corridor when I heard footsteps behind me. I spun around and saw Hermione standing behind me.
"Well that didn't go very well." She pointed out.
"What did you expect? Harry to run up to me, say he was madly in love with me, and kiss me passionately in front of the entire hall?" I said sarcastically.
Hermione colored a bit, and spoke.
"No. I just thought you might at least say a simple hello to each other."
"Answer a question for me Hermione."
"Okay."
"Have you gone mad?"
Hermione snorted and started walking.
"That would be a no. But I suppose I was just trying to be optimistic." She replied
"Well look where that got me."
"Yeah. Sorry about that. I really thought he might talk to you."
"Well evidently you were wrong. I think this might have been the worst day of the year yet."
"I'm sorry Ginny." Hermione said sincerely. She leaned over and gave me a hug.
"Thanks Hermione."
We walked back up to the common room in silence. When we got there, Hermione turned towards me.
"Get some sleep. And don't worry yourself sick. It'll get better. Don't worry it'll get better."
"I'll try to sleep and I will try not to worry. Although I fear I won't be very successful at either." I said dejectedly.
Hermione gave me a sympathetic smile, and then I headed upstairs. That's where I am now. Sitting on my bed writing. I think I'll go to sleep really early tonight. This day has been so exhausting and I just want it to be over. I hope things get better soon. But something in me tells me that they won't.
A/N: That was chapter sixteen! It's getting dramatic again, but there will still be some funny parts in every chapter. At least I hope you find them funny. Lol. And I know the drunk thing is done a lot, but that's how I wanted to do it. But never fear, Ginny and Harry will be together eventually! Read and Review! Thanks!
