Thanks to everyone who reviewed. Sorry it took really long to get this up, but my grandpa was in the hospital. But he's ok now. So I should have more time to write.
Chapter FourThe next few days were quiet. Ginny spend most of her time in the library. She hid among the stacks, pulling her robes about her and read. She did get a lot of homework done this way, but it was boring. She didn't really like sitting all day in the library, only going out to go to class. Even then, she stood the chance of running into her brother and Harry. What the hell was up with those two anyway? Their joke really wasn't all that funny and it had gone on long enough. Even worse was the fact that Hermione was in on it. Ginny had always thought that nothing could come between her and Hermione, but something had. She remembered the day Hermione was made Head Girl. She had requested that Ginny stay with her in the special dorms for the Head Girl. They had been so happy, staying up all night talking and laughing. Now Ginny didn't even dare to sleep in her dorm, so for the past three nights she had hidden in the library and had made use of the muggle sleeping bag her father had given her.
Hermione sighed and turned over. The room felt too big and too lonely without Ginny there. She didn't know where Ginny was staying at night, but it wasn't here. In fact, Hermione had barely seen Ginny over the last couple of days. And when she did, she noticed that Ginny looked pale, tired and still angry. If only Hermione could talk to her, she could find out what was going on. Ron and Harry spent all their time looking for Ginny, boxes of chocolates and limp hand fills of flowers trailing behind them. They had completely ignored Hermione, only to shoot dirty looks at her when she had tried to sit next to them at dinner the other night. Whatever was going on here, wasn't funny and Hermione wasn't enjoying it.
Harry sighed and threw down a bouquet of posies. "It's no use. We've searched every where for Ginny and we can't find her!" He slid down the wall and came to rest on the floor, next to Ron. Ron looked at his best friend. "Listen, she's got to be around here some where, we just can't give up now." He rummaged around in the dark and picked up a heart shaped box. He pealed off the tape and took out a caramel chocolate and popped it into his mouth. "Mmmmm these are really good. Have one Harry." He held the box up to Harry's nose. "No, no thanks Ron. Not innless their going to help us find your sister." Ron picked up another chocolate and eyed it carefully. "What do you mean we? When I find my sister, she will be mine, because I love her more than you do." He shoved the chocolate into his mouth and chewed thoughtfully.
Harry turned to look at the redhead sitting next to him. "Yours? I think not. Ginny is mine because my love is the purest and I am the Boy-Who-Lived and I can give her everything she desires. I love her best." He shoved himself upwards and sneered down at Ron. "Ginny is mine and always will be." Harry turned to leave, throwing the flowers to the ground.
Ron shoved the box of chocolates off his lap and leaped up to follow Potter. "Yours? I seriously doubt it. She's mine you slimy git and you better keep your hands off of her." He walked up to Harry and spun him around. "Come on, right here, right now. Whoever wins this, gets Ginny and the loser, well they don't get nothing." He took a boxing stance and waited for Harry to respond.
Harry eyed Ron up and down and laughed. "Like you would ever stand a chance against me. Well I'll say this for ya, you stand a better chance of beating me than you do at winning Ginny." He didn't even see Ron's fist as it connceted with his nose and broke it.
"You bloody son of a bitch! You broke me nose." Harry held a hand up, trying to stop the blood that was welling out of his nose. He looked up at Ron, surprised. "You know what, fuck this, I am going to beat the shit out of you now." He lunged at Ron, knocking him to the floor.
The two boys rolled on the floor, hitting, biting and kicking each other. "What is going on here? Stop this immediately!" Professor McGongagall's voice echoed down the hall. Two dark shapes came at the boys out of the darkness. "Lumos." A beam of light lit the hallway and made Harry and Ron fall off of each other, blinking at the sudden light.
"Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley. What is going on here?" Professors Dumbledore and McGongagall came down the hall. Harry stumbled to his feet, wiping blood from his nose. Ron hadn't faired much better. He was going to have a couple of nice shiners in the morning and his bottom lip had been spilt.
"Boys, tell us what is going on here immediately." "Now, now, there Minerva. It's obvious that Mr. Potter and Mr. Weasley have been fighting." Dumbledore laid a hand on Minerva's wand arm, holding her back. "Now boys why don't you tell us what's going on." He peered at them over his half moon glasses.
"Stupid-Head over here hit me when I was walking away." Harry pointed with one arm towards Ron and with the other brought his shirttail to his nose to mop up the stream of blood that was still flowing.
"Why you bloody git! You started it. You fucking know that Ginny is mine and I wont let you near her." Ron tried to leap at Harry again. He got up in the air before strong, thick ropes flew out of the air and wrapped themselves around him and a gag flew threw the air, cutting short the curses coming from Ron's mouth. He fell to the floor and lay there, twitching and glaring up at Harry.
"Now then Harry," Dumbledore put his wand away and turn to face the still bleeding boy. "Have a hankie and tell us what this is all about." He drew a white hankie out of somewhere in his robes and handed it to Harry.
Harry took the hankie and held it up to his nose. "Ell ooo see Professor Dubbledore. Ron an I both love Ginny." Minerva gasped and looked at Dumbledore. "Albus, could have? Did it?" She couldn't say anything else. Albus looked at her and shrugged. "Now Mr. Potter, when did this happen? Both you and Ron falling in love with Ginny."
Harry's nose had finally stopped bleeding and he handed the bloody hankie back to Dumbledore. "I first noticed Ginny in a .... Uh ..... Romantic way about a week ago when Peeves shouted something and woke everyone up. I tried to tell Ginny how I felt about him, but this lump head kept getting in the way, trying to tell Ginny that he loved her." He snorted and kicked Ron. Ron struggled against his bonds and tried to scream around the gag.
Minerva turned her back to Harry and pulled Dumbledore around with her. "Peeves? That little piece of ...... Well he's messed everything up again." "Well, Minerva, it was our fault for trusting Peeves to do it right. Now it's up to us to clear everything up."
