AN: Oh. Mi. Gosh! It's been SOOOOO long! I'm so totally sorry…I've just been so caught up with my life…. it isn't going so well…but anyway…don't worry! See, in my life I'm caught up in a love triangle…so that helped my writer's block…hehe! You'll see…
Ginny awoke the next morning to the birds singing. She tried to get used to the sounds of whispering and giggling from the floor below her…
"Oh shut it!" Ginny screamed through the door. "Some of us are still asleep y'know!"
Ginny quieted down for a bit, listening intently, to see if they obeyed her recent outburst. No luck in the slightest. Ginny groaned, annoyed. She decided to go ahead and get dressed, since she was getting up already from all the racket the people downstairs were causing. She went into the bathroom, took a quick shower, and dressed in jeans and a blue t-shirt, and put her hair up into a ponytail. After looking into the mirror, she walked downstairs, where a room full of people greeted her.
"Hey Ginny!" Harry and Ron greeted at the same time.
"Hey you guys…" Ginny said quietly, while walking towards their table.
"Ginny? Are you all right? Especially after yesterday one would hardly think you're to be all right…" Hermione said, while walking towards Ginny and hugging her.
"Mione, I'm just FINE! Don't worry about me…okay? I'm okay, I promise you. See?" Ginny said, while putting on a fake grin.
"Gin…" Hermione started out softly. "You don't have to have this toughy exterior…No one will say anything if you…you know…"
"Thanks Mione…but I'm okay, really!" Ginny promised.
"Okay…well…I have something to tell you…" Hermione started.
"Well? Then tell!" Ginny urged, going back to her usual cheerful self.
"Uhh…" Hermione started, and she signaled for Lavender and Parvarti to come over. "See…Shawn…and Draco are planning to have a fight today…"
"WHAT?!" Ginny nearly screamed.
"Calm down Gin…calm down! It's not that big of a deal…" Lavender soothed.
"Not a big deal? Not a big DEAL?! What the heck is wrong with him?!!!!" Ginny shrieked.
"Look at the bright side. You have Draco fighting for his ego, possibly your love, and you have Shawn over here who's blinded by your love!" Parvarti said, giggling.
"HA. HA." Ginny said, without any emotion.
"C'mon Gin…it'll be all right. Shawn knows what he's doing…" Hermione said.
"Sure he does, just like yesterday, eh?" Ginny said sarcastically.
Lavender giggled profusely.
"Oi! Shut it!" Parvarti said, laughing now as well.
"Me shut it?" Lavender asked, pretending to be offended.
"Yes you shut it!!" Ginny agreed with Parvarti.
Then all the girls burst out giggling.
"How in the world was that funny?" Hermione asked confused…
"I dunno…but you laughed too!" Parvarti accused.
Then Ginny felt someone tap her on the shoulder.
"Gin? Ginny…we need to talk…" Someone familiar said in a serious tone.
"Huh?" Ginny said before turning around. "Oh! Shawn…uhh…"
"Please?" Shawn pleaded, and Ginny looked into his eyes and couldn't refuse.
"Okay…" Ginny gave in. "What is it?"
"C'mon…I wanna show you something." Shawn urged, while tugging Ginny towards the back room.
Everyone quieted, and watched Shawn and Ginny intently, even the Slytherins. This annoyed Ginny quite a bit, but all she did was turn a shade of red.
So Shawn did something, "So it appears we're the center of attention today, huh?"
And everyone noticed that they were staring and started to mumble with their friends, and pretended that they weren't paying the slightest bit of attention. What a lie!
"C'mon Gin…" Shawn said, and pulled Ginny out into the backyard.
Shawn covered Ginny's eyes and led her to the forest. When he removed his hands Ginny was SHOCKED! There were faeries and all sorts of magical beasts out there. And all of the plants and trees looked like it'd been taken out of a wondrous painting!
"Oh Shawn….this is…amazing…" Ginny said, before hugging Shawn.
"Yeah…" Shawn said, while holding Ginny.
"I'm sorry about yesterday…if you hate me, I understand…." Ginny said, while looking towards the ground.
"Hate you?!" Shawn asked astounded. "I could never hate you!"
"Really?" Ginny said smiling.
"Yes. Really." Shawn said, before kissing Ginny.
It would've been all perfect…but only one thing ruined that…Ginny felt nothing towards the kiss. She somehow started yearning for Draco's touch, Draco's kiss. But she pretended to be happy. She knew she could never have Draco…little did she know that Draco was watching from atop a tree. Jealous as can be.
AN: Sorry about the short chapter, but don't worry…it'll get better…you'll see…
