Of Love and Dungbombs

Disclaimer: I don't own the characters, the setting, the magic…. So sad…

Again, sorry for the wait. With finals and stuff I was having a hard time finding time to write. But school's out for the summer so hopefully chapters will be coming more often. Oh and since HPB is coming out on July 16 I have no idea what to do. Do I just leave it the way it is? Or do I change it so that it is up to date with the books? I am so confused.

Chapter 5 – We were only…

At one point, the next morning, the Weasley household was actually pretty quiet. That point was, of course, when everyone was asleep. For everyone awoke to the sound of yelling. George's yelling to be exact. He was the one who found Ginny and Harry on the couch where they had fallen asleep earlier (much earlier) that morning.

And being one of the older brothers in the family, he was extremely overprotective of his youngest sibling, often calling her his "baby sister", much to Ginny's annoyance. Although Ginny knew her brothers were just looking out for her, she resented the fact that they treated her like a kid. "Like I can't take care of myself." She often thought. "But I have been through more than most of them 'cept maybe Ron. Though Ron has never been possessed by Tom-no!-Voldemort. Sure, he probably has bad dreams from the Trio's adventures but I doubt they are as bad as mine." So as Ginny sat there as George yelled at them (well more like Harry) she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"Don't you roll your eyes at me Ginerva Weasley!"

Harry shifted uncomfortably so that Ginny was no longer on top of him and opened his mouth to explain himself "I swear George nothing happened we -" only to be cut off by George.

"Nothing happened! Nothing happened! You were sleeping on the couch together and nothing happened!" his voice steadily rising.

Ginny abruptly stood up (causing Harry to almost fall off the couch) and slapped George across the face. "Get a hold of yourself George! We were sitting here and we fell asleep. That's it!"

George's face seemed to soften as she said this. "You swear?"

"Yes!" she cried, visibly exasperated by her brother's lack of faith in her answers.

"Okay. And Harry, you better not make any moves on my baby sister."

"George!" Ginny exclaimed, clearly very embarrassed.

Now George (and Fred) were rather built due to hours and hours of Quidditch training and you really couldn't blame Harry for being a little frightened. Harry didn't even mean what he was about to say. But Ginny didn't know this and had a rather hurt look on her face as he said it. What he said was "I swear George I would never make a move on Ginny."

Without a word, Ginny fled from the room where she bumped in to Hermione who had come downstairs to see what was going on. Seeing the look on her younger friend's face she quickly changed directions. "Ginny what's wrong?"

"Nothing." she snapped but at the top of the stairs she turned around and gave Hermione a "Sorry. I'll tell you later" look and continued on her way to her room.

Hermione shrugged, knowing she would hear about it later and began her decent down the stairs and once more fell down the stairs. But this time there was no one there to break her fall. Luckily she wasn't hurt and turned around to see what she tripped on only to find a Fred Weasley standing there, at the top of the stairs, trying very hard to keep a straight face.

"I am ever so sorry I wasn't there to for you to land on." he drawled, causing Hermione to scowl at him. She decided to ignore his statement though and asked him what she tripped on as she could no see anything from where she was on the floor.

"Tripped on? You didn't trip on anything. You're just very clumsy." He informed her, the smile he was trying to back earlier was now impossible to hide. The look on her face when he said that was enough to make anyone smile. The way she opened her mouth to say something but quickly closed it when she realized she didn't know what to say. The way her one eyebrow raises and you just know that you need to rethink what you just said. The way her face turns red. Not too red, just a little on the apples of her cheeks.

When she didn't say anything he walked down the stairs and offered her his hand. She raised her hand out hesitantly. With the Weasley twins you always had to be careful unless you wanted to become the victim of their latest prank. His hand looked safe enough. His offer, genuine. She took his hand.

"Thanks." She murmured as he pulled her up.

Ok so I fell…again. And Fred was there to see it… again. Oh well, I guess I am pretty clumsy… But then I never fall… So why now? Why now, twice in two days? And only on these stairs. She thought about it for a minute and then sighed. Maybe I am just clumsy.

She turned away from him and entered the kitchen where Mrs. Weasley joined her a couple minutes later to prepare breakfast. Helping Mrs. Weasley completely took her mind off falling and was actually enjoying herself. Or maybe it was Mrs. Weasley's praises that she enjoyed. Either way, she was having fun.

Harry sighed, knowing that he had said the wrong thing. Knowing that he should have kept his mouth shut. "Thanks a lot George." He left the room in search of Ginny. When he got to her room he knocked on the door. No answer. But he knew she was in there due to the music playing.

She didn't know why but she always listened to music when she was upset it soothed her. She heard the knock but knew it was Harry. She already told Hermione she would tell her later and the only other person who knew was George and he knew to let her cool down before attempting to make peace.

"Come on Ginny. Open up." Harry yelled as to be heard over the music. Ginny sighed, turned down the music and opened the door. "

"What do you want Harry?" Ginny asked tersely.

But now that he found her and was talking to her, he didn't quite know what to say. "I…um…"

"Well?" Ginny demanded. He opened his mouth but said nothing. "That's what I thought." She slammed the door shut, leaving a gaping Harry.

A voice boomed throughout the house. "Breakfast is ready!" Food! Everyone hurried downstairs to find a huge stack of pancakes, bacon, eggs and a lot of pieces of toast. Ron, of course, piled his plate completely full of food and sat down at the opposite end of the table as Hermione. Harry sat next to him followed by Fred, Ginny than Hermione at the end. Harry was filling Ron in on what happened and Ginny was telling Hermione. Fred and George were laughing and joking about the latest prank they pulled on Lee Jordon.

"I was thinking," announced Mrs. Weasley "that we could head to Diagon Alley to get your school stuff today.

"Aren't you coming Hermione?" Ginny asked as she was about to leave the room.

"I already bought my school stuff." She replied, looking up from the book she was reading. It was entitled "6th Year Charms : Year of the Light"

"Well you could come anyways. You know, keep me company?" Ginny told her.

"Sorry Gin I kind of want to finish this book."

"So you are just stay here and read a school book during the summer with no company except Fred."

Hermione shrugged. "Wait. Fred is staying too?"

"Yea, apparently he is the middle of some huge breakthrough related to an invention of theirs and refuses to leave." Ginny rolled her eyes. "Boys…" she turned to leave.

"Hey Ginny." She stopped. "Don't give up on Harry alright?"

Alright I'm done… Well not completely done. I had more ideas but it think they would be better suited in the next chapter.
