A/N: Yes i own everything about Harry Potter (April Fools) Happy B-day Fred & George!


Dinner and News

A week had passed since Ginny had let the truth slip to Harry and she was surprised yet, gracious that she had not seen a sign of him or any of her friends for that matter all week.

She was now standing in front of the Burrow. Her mother had sent her an owl the previous day telling her that she wanted everyone over for dinner because it had been so long since they had all been together.

She stood in the front garden dreading what was about to come. She knows that he would be there after all.

When Ginny finally got the nerve she went inside. She walked into the kitchen and everyone was already seated. Her dad was at the far end of the table next to Ron and Hermione, next to him was Fred. Across from Fred sat George. Mum was across form dad, and the only empty seat was across from Harry.

Ginny walked over trying to maintain what little poise and self-confidence that she had left. Everyone greeted her with a welcoming smile.

As she took her seat her eyes met Harry's deep green ones. She felt her heart begin to pound in her ears before looking away.

She turned to face the rest of the group. Hermione was now standing and started to speak, "Well now that we are all here I have something to share with you all. I have gotten a promotion at work! As of Monday I am the new head of Department for Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures."

Everyone gasped. George said, "Well, I guess that means SPEW is going to make a come back."

"It was never gone and besides, it's S.P.E.W." Hermione shot back.

Ginny cut in before things could get nasty, "That's wonderful Hermione."

Everyone gave Hermione their congratulations. Dinner then continued as normally as in possibly could be at the Weasley house. Mrs.Weasley's usual picking, Fred and George's usual jokes, and Ron's endless quidditch talk.

After dinner Hermione helped Mrs.Weasley with the dishes and the men and Ginny remained sitting around the table talking. When the conversation switched to girls Ginny decided that she had enough of the "Men Talk."

She rose from the table saying, "I'm going for a walk."

Harry caught her eye giving her a questioning look, Ginny just rolled eyes in return and walked away without looking back.

Once outside, she was able to breathe again. She hadn't realized it but she hadn't taken a proper breath since she entered the house at the beginning of the evening. She felt the warm summer air fill her lungs. It helped her feel more relaxed.

Ginny then continued down to a path near the house which would take her to a small creek in the nearby woods. She followed the familiar path that was lit by the bright moon.

Once she arrived, she sat down on a patch of grass that was a bit moist with the evening dew.

She closed her eyes listening to the familiar sound of the water traveling over the rocks. She was sucked back in time to a summer five years ago when she and Hermione had sat in that very spot she was in now hiding from the boys. They had been pestering them all day about wanting them to join them in playing quidditch. Ginny wouldn't have minded playing but she new that she shouldn't leave Hermione alone no matter how much she said that she would not mind.

Just then Ginny jumped and was snapped back into present time. A twig had broken behind her and she saw Harry emerge off the path behind her.

"Oh it is only you," she said coolly. She didn't understand why she was upset with him, she knew that he should be the one angry at her because of her crazy behavior the last time they had spoken.

"Sorry to bother you but, I think that you and I should talk," he said just as coolly.

"Well I think that I have done enough talking to you lately," she snapped.

"Well I don't," he argued.

"Well that's just too bad," Ginny yelled.

Harry took a deep breath and said, "I didn't come here to fight, alright Gin?"

"Well why did you come here then?" she asked in return.

"I already told you, to talk," he said in a desperate tone.

"Well go talk to your girlfriend and leave me the hell alone like before," Ginny shouted at him. He looked as though she had just slapped him across the face. She knew that she was being harsh but didn't care, she just wanted him to go. To be around him when she couldn't have him just hurt her to much.

"Just hear me out ok Ginny?" Harry pleaded.

"I'd rather not," and with that she walked away leaving Harry standing there in the moon light by himself.

If they had been on better terms Ginny would have thought the whole situation was terribly romantic. What with the moon and the water, it was such a waste that it would only be like that in her dreams.

When Ginny entered the house again she found everyone settled in the sitting room.

"Where's Harry?" Ron asked.

"Oh he umm…wanted to stay out a bit longer," she told them.

Hermione shot her a questioning look which Ginny chose to ignore and took a seat on the sofa between Fred and George.

"So Ginny how have things been going with you?" asked her mum.

"Fine mum," she replied.

"Anything other then work going on at the moment?" she questioned.

"No mum."

"You know it shouldn't be all work and no play at you age," her father said.

"Your father's right dear you should go out and have some fun," her mum added.

Just then Harry entered the room distracting her mum's attention, "Speaking of fun, Harry dear how about you and that Vanessa girl I've been reading about in the papers, and when will we be meeting her?"

"Well Mrs.Weasley, I broke up with her last week," said Harry.

Ginny gasped at his words causing everyone in the room to look in her direction, well everyone but Harry he was staring hard in the opposite direction as though determined not to look at her.

After everyone had recovered from Ginny's distraction the conversation was once again turned to Harry, "We are all sorry to hear that dear," Mrs.Weasley said.

"Yes well Mrs.Weasley, everyone, I really should get going. I'm rather tired," he said clearly wanting to leave.

"You poor dear, yes do go home and get some rest," she said.

"Thank you for having me over," he said and turned to Ron and Hermione, "I'll see you in the morning."

"Sure mate," Ron said.

Harry left the room. As soon as Ginny heard the front door shut she jumped from her seat, "I'll be back, I have just forgotten to ask Harry something," and with that she ran out of the room.
