BIRTHDAY WISH

Full Summary:

Ginny makes a wish on her 16th birthday. And in the wizarding world, a wish made on their 16th birthday comes true. Almost nobody remembers, but for Ginny, it's an incredibly good thing that she did.

Ginny woke up to a big pillow being shoved in her face. She opened her eyes groggily, squinting up at the blurry forms of what appeared to be Fred and George. They hovered over her, prepared to run if she got mad, or to shove another pillow into her face if she went back to sleep. Deciding she didn't want to be hit again, she bolted up yelling, "Leave me alone!"

"But Gin-bug!" George protested, "Don't yell at us!"

"We only wanted to make sure you'd be awake for your birthday!" Fred finished with a grin.

Ginny groaned and sank back into her soft bed, "Well shouldn't you let me sleep in on my birthday?"

"Yes but everyone downstairs—"

"—is eagerly awaiting the birthday girl."

"So get up!" George finished, and threw the second pillow onto her head. The twins ran out laughing as an enraged Ginny stomped after them. She slammed the door and went back to bed.

"Stupid Fred and George…interrupting my sleep," she grumbled. After tossing and turning for another ten minutes and finding she couldn't fall back asleep, Ginny grabbed some clean clothes and went to take a shower. When she was done, she headed downstairs, where the twins said everyone was waiting for her. It was deathly quiet, and no one was in the kitchen. She headed for the living room next, and nearly had a heart attack.

"SURPRISE!" everyone yelled, jumping out from behind random places. Molly held a giant chocolate cake in her hands, and everyone else held a present. Ron had even invited Harry and Hermione. Her friends Colin and Luna were there too. They all stood underneath a large banner that read Happy 16th Birthday Ginny!

"Wow!" Ginny finally said, "This almost makes me forgive Fred and George for waking me up by throwing pillows in my face."

"You threw pillows in her face?" Molly shrieked, "Did you hear a word I said?"

"Yes mum, we did," began Fred.

"But you see—" George continued.

"Ginny sleeps like a log—"

"So we couldn't just tap her awake."

"And you decided to throw pillows in her face instead?"

"Yeah," they answered in unison, large grins on their faces.

Molly sighed hopelessly, "Well at least you got her awake." She brought the cake to the kitchen and called everyone in. When everyone squeezed in around table, she told Ginny to make a wish.

I really wish that a guy will notice me this year for who I am. Just not Harry, he's like a brother now. Hopefully someone who won't get scared of Ron when he tries to interfere.

"Are you done wishing dear?" Molly asked, holding the cutting knife in her hand.

Ginny opened her eyes and smiled, "Yeah, you can cut the cake now." And she pointed out the piece she wanted.

"Sfo wud d'choo wich fo'?" Ron asked.

"Ew! Ron! Ask me when you don't have a half-chewed mouthful of cake in you mouth," Ginny said

Ron swallowed, "I said: so what did you wish for?"

"I can't tell you. Besides, you'd freak out."

"I would not! Anyway, I bet you wished that Harry would asked you out, huh?" he said, nudging her and winking.

"No Ron, when will it get through your head that he's like a brother to me?" Ginny replied.

"But you have enough brothers!" Fred said.

"You don't know how true that is," Ginny muttered quietly.

"Yeah, so why do you need Harry as a brother?" George added.

"For the same reason everyone else treats him like a brother, and mum like his son. So drop it!" Ginny replied.

"You can tell me about your wish right?" interrupted Lune dreamily.

"I'll tell you if it comes true, and you too Colin," she said, catching his expectant expression. "But for now, everyone leave me alone about it and let's go open some presents!"
