Chapter Fourteen: Advice from the "experts"
Ginny spent most of the day staring at her ceiling. Over the past few days, she had hardly talked to anyone. She needed someone to express her feelings to. Hermione would just roll her eyes and make some sort of patronizing comment, Ron would just get angry that she had such thoughts, and Harry…well, Harry was her problem, so how could she ask him?
"It is time for desperate measures. I am going to ask Lavender and Parvati," Ginny said out loud.
Ginny got out of bed and walked to the common room. Lavender and Parvati were giggling over some picture of some naked guy with amazing biceps. They stopped when they noticed Ginny staring at them.
"Gin, why are you staring at us like that? Do you want to take a look at Brad Pitt too?" Lavender asked pointing at the picture.
Ginny looked confused, so Parvati explained.
"He is a muggle actor."
"A dreamy muggle actor," Lavender added swooning on the couch.
"I don't really want to take a look at this 'date pitt' guy right now ("Ginny! It's Brad Pitt! Don't insult him!" Parvati screeched) but I have a huge problem and I was hoping you would help me," Ginny said.
"Well, why didn't you come to us earlier?" Parvati asked, her eyes twinkling.
"Yeah Gin, what's the problem?" Lavender asked.
"You see…I-um-…I think I am in love!" Ginny blurted out.
Lavender and Parvati looked at each other, wide-eyed and started squealing so loudly, that Ginny had to scrunch up her ears.
"Guys! Let me finish! I don't think he likes me back!" Ginny said loudly, trying to drown the squeals of delight.
"Well, how do you know, if you never ask him?" Parvati pointed out. "Say, who is the lucky guy anyways?"
"Um…"
"Go on!" Lavender urged.
"It's Harry Potter!" Ginny blurted out for the second time that day. Damn! Why the bloody hell did I have to go blurt that out for? Ginny thought angrily.
"Oh my gosh, are you serious? You two would make a perfect couple! You two look sooooo cute together!" Lavender exclaimed.
"You think?" Ginny asked hopefully.
"We know!" Parvati said excitedly.
"So what do you guys think I should do?" Ginny asked them.
"Well…there are three major things to do to please a guy: Number One: Compliment him…it could be anything….his brilliance, his abs, or even his ability to play Quidditch. In Harry's case, it would be his arse. Have you ever noticed the peculiar shape of it? " Lavender said casually.
"Okay! Too much information!" Ginny yelled.
"Anyways, Number Two: Act like a woman! Dress up in extra tight and extra thin clothing, sway your hips a whole lot, and laugh at his jokes! Always remember to laugh at his jokes!" Parvati added.
"Number three: Kiss him…and make it a good and romantic kiss! Guys like girls who are good kissers!" Lavender included.
"Okay, so all of this will make Harry like me?" Ginny asked.
"Trust us! We are experts in this sort of thing!" Parvati exclaimed.
Ginny snorted, thanked them both, and climbed up to her dormitory, leaving Lavender and Parvati to giggle over who was going to shag Brad Pitt first. Ginny decided to climb into bed.
It was a bright and shiny Saturday morning. Perfect conditions for flying. Ginny decided to wake up early and go out for a little morning fly. She grabbed her broomstick and ran to the Quidditch Pitch. She circled around the field twice when she had a feeling someone was watching her. She turned around and saw Harry on his broom. He slightly blushed when she saw him staring at her.
Ginny's heart leapt. She decided to say the first compliment that came in her mind, "Harry! Your arse is looking rather ravishing today!"
Ginny smacked her head and thought Damn it! Why did I say that? What is he going to think?
Harry looked a little surprised, but he said, "Um…thank you. No one every told me my arse looked ravishing, so I will just take that as a compliment."
It was now Ginny's turn to blush. Her cheeks started flaming, because of the sudden silence.
"Listen…I was wondering if you would like to take a little walk around the lake with me right before breakfast," Harry said finally.
Ginny looked really surprised. She had not expected this. She smiled and agreed.
