A/N: Thx to devildancer for helping out with some stuff in the story!
Ok.here is my second chapter..
After lying in bed for about ten seconds, Ginny got extremely restless and jumped out of bed. She sat wondering what she could do. She decided on paying the giant squid a visit since that was all she had come up with. She leapt up to get ready but then decided against it. Who would notice if she did? Throwing her tacky hairbrush aside, Ginny began to make her way down.
Surprised to find the common room empty, a small rumble in her stomach reminded Ginny that she was missing lunch. No problem, I'll just grab something on the way, she thought. Swinging open the portrait of the Fat Lady, Ginny ran down the stairs and strolled into the Great Hall, which was currently brimming with students and teachers happily munching on chicken, mashed potatoes, and treacle tarts. Ginny felt her mouth start watering as she made her way over to the Gryffindor table. She reached out towards the mountainous pile of treacle tarts and took as many as her tiny hands could hold (which was four).
She was about to head out when she heard her name being called by none other than Lavender Brown. She spun around in surprise. Now why would Lavender want to talk to a lower life form like me?
"Hey Ginny! You can have my share of treacle tarts. I'm watching my weight, something that you're obviously not doing!" Ginny heard many snickers rise from the Gryffindor table. She opened her mouth to retort, but her brain wouldn't supply her with the words she wanted to say. Upon hearing the laughter from the Gryffindors, other houses began to watch the scene as well.
Great, as if being humiliated in front of the Gryffindors isn't enough. Now I get to be humiliated in front of the whole damn school! Ginny stood open- mouthed as the people around her watched expectantly, waiting to hear the words she didn't have. As Ginny's loss of words became apparent to everyone around her, she began to hear laughter erupting from the students around her. It seemed everyone in the Great Hall found that watching Ginny suffer was far more amusing then whatever they had previously been doing.
She gulped and looked towards Ron for support, who she could tell was trying not to make eye contact with her. She knew he didn't want to defend her and embarrass himself in front of all his friends. She glanced around at the surrounding faces, trying to find at least one that showed sympathy, but only found laughing faces shouting jeering remarks at her.
Unable to control it, a flood of tears erupted from Ginny's eyes. Ginny ran towards the entrance of the Great Hall, but alas, the many ears in ther eyes blurred her vision and she ran straight into the wall left of the door she was aiming for. Immediately a roar of laughter loud enough to be heard in Diagon Alley erupted in the Great Hall. As Ginny wiped tears from her eyes, she noticed that Ron was making absolutely no effort to suppress his laughter. She also noticed several teachers jumping up to help her, but she leapt to her feet and ran out the door, making sure that she didn't miss it this time.
She made her way down to the lake as she had intended to do in the first place. She noticed that she had dropped her treacle tarts, and her stomach was rumbling very loudly. But she would not go back in to that hall of hell ever again, not for a thousand Galleons! Well..maybe if it was that much money she would. But no one was offering her any Galleons so she wasn't going to take one step into the Great Hall.
When she finally reached the lake, she sat down on the soft grass near the lake's edge. As Ginny put her feet in the cool water, her eyes caught sight of a gleaming object in the water. She picked up the small object, and let out a small gasp. The mysterious item was a crystal pendant, and it wasn't just any ordinary pendant. It was a very rare kind. These were extremely expensive and they were also charmed. What was unique about these pendants was that no pendant ever held the same charm. Wondering what magic this pendant held, Ginny turned over the crescent-shaped pendant, where she found a tiny, elegant inscription on it. Squinting her eyes to read the small manuscript, Ginny read aloud:
One wish you have to make,
To fill your heart's deepest ache.
Make the wish before you fall asleep tonight,
And it will come true at dawn's first light.
Choose well for your wish will stay,
Until your life is taken away.
As Ginny realized what the charm did, her mind began racing through endless possibilities of wishes. When at last she decided that she had the perfect wish, the sky was beginning to darken. She got up, tightly clutching the crystal pendant, and started walking back to the castle, grinning to herself. Her life was about to get a whole lot better.
Ok! That was the end of Chapter 2! Hope you like it! I'm trying to write longer chapters but its not working too well.im going kinda slow but she'll probably start talking to draco and stuff in the next chapter Chapter Three: What does Ginny wish for and how does everybody react to it?
