A/n Hi all. Time for chapter 5. Let the fic begin!
Chapter 5: Around town
After twenty minutes of waiting, the Weasley's were next in line.
Harry received a birthday greeting from each Weasley, Dumbledore, Sirius in human form, Lupin and Hermione.
Harry realized he was two inches taller than Ron. They talked for a moment when he heard his boss call his name.
"Mr. Potter?"
"Yes Mrs. Gelari?"
"Is today your birthday?"
"Yes ma'am." Harry replied
"How old are you?" She asked
"Fifteen ma'am."
"Because it's your birthday, you have the rest of the evening off."
"Thank you."
Harry pulled out a chair for each Guest in turn. Then went through with his waiter duties.
"Mister Potter! I thought I told you you are off? Sit down and I'll send another waiter."
"Yes ma'am." Harry said and sat down at the head of the table.
Harry noticed Ginny had a glazed far-off look in her eyes and wasn't responding. Hermione was nudging her with her elbow. Ron had a look identical to Ginny's and had his elbow in the butter dish. Ron was staring at Hermione. Fred and George were talking in low voices amongst themselves. Remus and Dumbledore were talking about nothing of importance and Bill was talking with Charlie about Quidditch. Sirius was pigging out on the bread.
Harry saw Hermione whispering in Ginny's ear. After a while Ginny came over behind Charlie. Her knees were shaking with nervousness.
She spoke just a bit above a whisper to Charlie. "Charlie? Could you trade seats with me?"
Charlie seemed to read Ginny's mind as to why she wanted the seat and replied "Sure Gin."
The reason Ginny wanted the seat was obvious. It was next to Harry. Sirius, who sat on Harry's right looked from Harry to Ginny then back to Harry. A smile crossed his face. He tapped Remus on the shoulder then turned Remus's head to look at Harry and Ginny. Remus Duplicated the smile. Food came and went. After the bill was paid, it was decided (by Arthur) that they should look around the town. They all walked out and split up. Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny walked around. Ron ran into a light pole from looking at Hermione instead of where he was walking. Hermione and Ron went off in another direction claiming they needed "Christmas Presents for Harry." Harry thought it meant "snog eachother's brains out.
"I saw something I think I can get for you. Turn around. I'll be right back." Ginny said She ran back the other way.
Harry sat down on a bench for a minute. He was wondering where everyone got off to. Harry heard a scream. He turned to look.
Someone had a gun pointed right at Ginny.
