Chapter: 7- The debate
The next day all fred, george, Hermione, ron and Sirius could do was wait for their plan to come into action.
All the 6 teenagers and Sirius had a silent breakfast.
As planned, they made harry and ginny sit opposite each other.
So on harry's side sat, geroge and Hermione and on ginny's side sat ron, Sirius and fred.
After they ate breakfast, Hermione, as planned, took all their plates and dropped it into the wash basin.
She came back and took her seat next to harry.
Then fred, as though flexing his fingers gave a thumbs up, which according to the rest of the plan involvers meant, to start the plan.
" Awwwwwwwwww!" fred gave a huge fake yawn and said," ohhhh! Im bloody bored…………….lets do something interesting…….".
" yeah, you are right fred" continued Sirius," lets do something…………….."
then it was rons turn, " hey Sirius, why don't you teach us some game that you and james used to play often." He said with a sheepish smile.
Harry, playing along the plan without knowing said," yeah Sirius, that'll be nice."
" okay, lemme think……………………….. yes I have got one…….. its really nice…. It goes like this……." He said making himself more comfortable on his chair in the thought that the plan was going on well.
" all of you listening…….. okay…………. Its kinda debate where a set of people will argue against another set of people on/ about the person of one of the teams….. did you get this part…….." he asked looking around at all of them.
Only harry and ginny seemed really into what Sirius was saying while the others were not very exited as they already knew the game.
But according to the plan all said YES in chorus.
" good….. then……. The most important part of the game is that……. The person who is the topic of the debate is on one side and he'll defend himself and the person who is against the topic of the particular person is on the other side. The important thing that I was coming to say is that the you do not get to choose your team members, they choose you and so, if nobody chooses the person who is for the topic/ against the topic, they stand alone and defend themselves" he said and waited to catch breath and continued, " for example, when james and I used to play, it used to be like me, remus and peter on one side against james. Our frequent topic used to be whether james will get lily or not. The 3 of us will be against the topic which is james and james has to defend himself alone….." he said as all of them started to laugh.
" cooooolll." All of them said in chorus.
" okay, ready………..whats th topic……..?" he asked looking around.
All the 5 plan involvers, as planned looked at harry. Of course ginny was looking down.
" HARRY!" the 5 screamed together.
" oh guys, why me, what did I do…….." but no one was listening to harry but were discuss what about harry can they debate on.
Then, again as planned, george shot up his hand and said" I have got one……………..harry can defend himself in his grounds whether he is good ………. Or what to say………is he attracted by the girls at all coz until now no one has ever had feelings for harry as we all think………..so the debate is whether harry can ever attract another girl………" he finished lookin all around.
Harry gaped at him……………. NO WAY he shouted but it was drowned by AWSEOME screaming by the other 5 except ginny who kept quiet and was looking down apparently blushing.
Then Sirius got up and asked" okay……. So who is his opponent……….me" is it okay with all of you.
Of course they all shouted except harry and ginny.
Sirius continued" so who all are on my side…………………….. wowwwwwwwwwww/…………………….. " he said as Hermione and george came and joined Sirius on his side with fred ron and ginny.
This was the first time ginny looked up.
She felt bad for harry….. look at his face………so innocent………….so sweet………..so cute………..ginny cut it out………..come back she shouted at herself.
She couldn't stand it…. She wanted to be on harry's side.
She gathered up all her courage and walked around the table and sat on harry's side.
Harry looked down and started to blush. Ginny is supporting for me………..wow…….is this a dream………….?" He asked himself as his thoughts were cut off by fred's laughter.
" hey gin, why have you gone to the loosing side………." He asked
" unlike you people I think that harry can attract any number of girls" she said and realizing what she said , she blushed so much that her face became her hair colour but it was no match for harry's which was turning so red that it looked like a ripe and fresh apple.
There were many noises like oooooooooooooooooh! And aah! Look whose supporting whom and all that………………….. harry and ginny felt so humiliated that harry thought he could go and live with a horntail than here and ginny felt whether she did the right thing coming here for Christmas.
Sirius who was beginning to feel their embarrassment, felt sad and said" ok, that's enough guys…….back on topic" he said with a serious face.
Every one settled down.
The debate began.
It was Sirius turn now, it was a rule that each on of them should get up and tell the reason as to why the person is against the topic. After both the teams are done, they compare their reasons and tell the winner.
Sirius said" as you need a judge, I'll back out of the game and be the judge, so now my team will be ron's team………..okay?"
" YEAH" they all said in chorus.
Though harry and ginny were in the same group they never looked at each other or even smiled at each other. They just kept looking down and when necessary looked up.
" so let the debate BEGIN" said Sirius and sat on the centre chair of the dinning table.
Hermione first got up and said" I am against harry potter because he has never shown any interest in girls and will never understand them….. so I don't think any girl will ever get attracted to mr. potter" she ended and sat down.
Ron got up and said" I am against harry coz I think he's thick and as Hermione said will never understand girls……. So which girls will want to date hime" he said and sat down putting his arm on Hermione's shoulder.
It was fred'd turn…….. he got up and said," I am against mr lord you- know- who' s you- know who because he is too busy saving other people from trouble that he'll hardly have anytime for his girl. So who'll wanna be his girl." He said and sat down and gave a low thumbs up to Sirius who smiled.
Then geroge got up and said" I am against mr. harry potter for the same reasons as my team members fre, Hermione and ron.
He sat down and they all looked at harry and ginny who had their heads up but did not look at each other.
Apparently, because of what each on said about harry, had got ginny's anger up to her head that her face was now red due to the anger and not because of blushing.
As harry got up to agree with each one of them and ebd the debate ginny shot up from her seat and shouted out loud, " who told that harry is not attracted by any girl. All I hear gilrs of my year and other years talk about is how harry looks and his cute face and wonderful eyes, I hear all of only harry's mantra's every where and nothing else. In fact why other girls, take me and my friends, our topic everyday is harry. Okay forget my friends, take me, I was attracted to harry even before I met him and I still like him and will always do………." Then she stopped abruptly as she realized what she said.
All the 5 plan involvers started laughing out loud coz of the success of the plan. They got ginny to tell harry that she likes him.
Ginny turned looked at harry. He was staring at her with a shocked expression.
Ginny, not knowin what to do, turned over her heels and ran to her room crying.
Harry was still shocked and was standing rooted on the spot.
Sirius followed ginny to her room and…………………..
