BIIIIIGGG Disclaimer: Yes, these characters belong to J.K. Rowling scowls. I want to be a billion dollar author person. Hmph. I think I'll steal Draco for my own use—I mean, torture of course!!! grins.
Author's "Note" (more like excuses. Lol.)Okay...I am SOOOOOOOOO Sorry to everyone who has read my fic and I haven't updated ducks rotten tomatoes. I'm so sorry. Life has been SOO busy lately, and this chapter is one that I wrote on Spring break....yes that was about two months ago ducks a rotten duck carcass. I'm sorry and because summer is here...I PROMISE to update more(. I'll also be starting some new fics (I must do a Hermione/Draco fic...those are so much fun. And even though it'll never happen, opposites attract and there is LOADS of sexual tension in those fics. Lol. Listen to me...heh.) SO...Here goes. And I'll have comments to my reviewers in the end. Thanks for sticking with me this long.
Morning of Sunshine
"It could've done serious damage to her!" Harry exclaimed to the expressionless faces that stared back at him. "Don't you GET IT?!" he let the effect of his words sink in, "SHE COULD HAVE BEEN PERMANENTLY ALTERED! The potion was working even more quickly than they normally do!"
He stared at them as they grew steadily angrier; their red hair looking as thought it was truly aflame. Fred and George narrowed their eyes to slits so small that Harry marveled at the fact they could still see him.
"Well Potter," Fred spat venomously, "You seem to know a bit about this ridiculous potion. I'm beginning to think maybe YOU did it."
Hermione shook her head, "NO. Harry would never do ANYTHING to hurt me. EVER—NO MATTER what." She grabbed his hand and gave it a squeeze as she smiled at him. Harry signaled a quick "Thank you" to her—it was so useful to have their own language. Her eyes lit up as she saw the door to the Inn creak open. Harry glanced over at the door and saw the most beautiful, comforting sight he'd seen for what felt like two centuries. Ginny scanned the room and landed on Harry's face. She looked at him intensely before smiling and glancing around the table.
Fred and George smiled at her and glared at Harry obviously as Ginny's attention switched to Ron's sulky face. He slumped low in his chair, red hair more disheveled than usual, and eyes drooping with sleepiness but still looking lovingly at an oblivious Hermione who waved happily when Ginny's eyes fell upon her.
Ginny began to make her way over to their round wooden table as Harry received one of Hermione's messages through their "language".
"Go to your room." Hermione glanced at him with scheming brown eyes. Harry shot a helpless glimpse at Ginny before getting up and leaving the suddenly joyous table. He sighed stubbornly as he glanced at Fred and George's obvious glee. "Better get to my room to, er...get money for my shopping today. I, erm...forgot to, uhm...get it from my trunk. "He scurried off before anyone could point out the happy jingling of coins sounding in his velvet robe pockets. Fred and George looked triumphantly at one another as Ginny watched Harry leave with a hurt expression displayed on her countenance.
Sprawled out, bored on his bed after fifteen painful minutes of longing, Harry stared out at the dreary weather when he heard a knock on his door. He sighed with annoyance thinking that Ron had probably come to tell him some rubbish about the "adorable" freckly that Hermione had on her earlobe. Yet, his heart jumped when he heard a gentle, "Harry?"
He awkwardly lifted his head from his sprawled out position on his bed. Ginny's sparkling green eyes stared tearfully back at him.
"Oh Ginny," he whispered as he slowly got up. No sooner had he opened his arms to her than he found her clinging to him. He felt the shoulder on his shirt grow wet with her precious, salty tears. He continued to hold her before he was startled by the melodious sound of her sweet voice stumbling quickly over her words.
"They don't want us to be together," she whispered into his ear. Her warm breath rendered him unable to use his voice and to do nothing but allow her to cling to him more tightly. He drew her closer to himself and barely found his voice to say, "They can't stop us Gin—"
"Harry! They'd rather kill you than see us together," she whispered in horror as her green eyes widened, "They told me. And I don't doubt their seriousness." She pushed a lone lock of black hair out of his eyes and rested her hand gently on his cheek, "I'd rather see you alive and watch you fall in love with another. I couldn't be tortured with thoughts of you—" she shrank back unable to say it. He parted their tight embrace and looked into her eyes to chase any thoughts of his mortality in her mind.
He gripped her shoulders and said calmly, "I don't want anyone but you. They can't stop us—"
"HARRY! They can. If they even see me talking to you—"
"Sometimes talking isn't necessary," Harry mumbled as he slowly captured her lips into his own. An electric shock of energy flowed through his body at their immediate contact. She fell limp in his arms as his lips demonstrated their undying passion to hers. Her salty tears fell down her cheeks as he slowly kissed each worry and sorrow away. He slowly faced her again—her pink lips quivering with sorrow and delight. The remembrance of their situation thickly clouded the air in the room as they gazed slowly at one another. Could there truly be a solution after all?
Zigzag722: Glad you think it's cool. ;). And as the one in the middle of all of the conflict...Hermione is the one who's gonna get picked on. But in my next story...she'll get things that I wish that I'D get! Lol. I still love her.

Another Author's "note" (even though NOTES are things written in class when the teacher isn't looking...:))
Oh...and here's a little P.S to all of you who are my regular readers. Since summer will be here on FRIDAY!!! AHHH!!! And I'll be a sophomore! AHHH! I promise to have good stories with MUCH better writing (this one is kinda choppy and forced.) And there will probably be some Gilmore Girls fics, possibly a Buffy fic or two, DEFINITELY more Harry Potter fics (Hermione/Draco is SOOO FUN!) and maybe a POTO fic. And more. But I can't write 5 million at once...I wish. I'll also be working on my book. Yup, I'm writing a book!!! Lol. So, I luv ya'll and until next time...thanks for reading.
