Thanx 2…
Paranoid Sarcasm: thanx! I thought so 2, lol
Ginny woke up to the sound of the girls' chattering, so she got out of bed and got ready for the day. She was just about the leave but the girls stopped her.
"Are you going to show us today?"
"Yes, yes. You just watch." Ginny said, going down the stairs. Remus was at the bottom waiting for her. Ginny was touched.
"Aww, Remus, you didn't have to wait for me." Ginny said. He laughed.
"We all were, but they got too hungry so they left." He said. Ginny laughed too and they went to the Great Hall. Ginny was aware that the girls were behind them, but not too closely so that Remus didn't suspect anything. He sat down and Ginny glanced at the girls and nodded her head. They nodded their heads excitedly while Lily rolled her eyes. Ginny sat down next to Sirius and put on the sleepy act. She yawned and placed her head on his shoulder.
"Sleepy, are you?" He said, laughing.
"Yeah," She said. He patted her head and smiled.
"I'm a good pillow. Sleep on me anytime." He said. Ginny started cracking up, which caused the guys to crack up too. She looked over at the girls whose jaws were dropped and glaring jealously at her.
"This is Peter, by the way." Sirius said. He pointed to a short fat boy with blonde hair and watery blue eyes. Ginny nodded and grabbed some toast to butter as the owls came swooping in. Instinctively Ginny looked up, but then brought her head back down sadly, knowing there was no one to be getting any mail from.
"Letter from Mum," James said, reading his mail. "Guess what, Phoenix? For Christmas you're invited over, so my parents can meet you. You'll love my mum, and I'm positive she'll love you." James said.
"I'd like that. Sure, I'll come over for Christmas." Ginny said.
"Excellent," James said. McGonagall came around with the schedules, and Ginny was delighted to see that she had every class with all the boys except Peter.
"What do you want to be when you leave Hogwarts?" Sirius asked.
"Auror,"
"Us as well. We can train together." He said. Ginny smiled and got some eggs.
"Yay, ready for History?" Ginny said.
"Oh, of course. We can sleep in that class." James said. They went and got their books and then walked into Professor Binns classroom. They choose seats in the back and sat down. Lily and her girls came in and sat in the front. Professor Binns started to drone on. The only people paying attention, or at least trying to, were Lily and Remus, who were taking notes. Ginny looked around the classroom, people watching. Remus was scribbling notes, his hair falling into his eyes. He looks so cute…Ginny thought. He tried pushing his hair away but it fell back. He looked up and noticed Ginny looking at him.
"What?" He asked, blushing.
"Nothing. Just watching you take notes." She said, brushing his hair aside. He blushed further at this gesture and went back to taking notes, still red. Ginny once again looked around the classroom. Lily was taking notes fervently as well, but her girls were either looking at Witch Weekly or pretending to glance at the clock when they were really glancing at Sirius. Ginny looked and saw James doing some holiday homework, and Sirius was staring at the ceiling. Ginny put her head on his shoulder and they both dozed off. The bell rang later, startling them awake. Ginny looked over at the girls and saw them glaring jealously at her.
Hmm…being close to Sirius makes them uber jealous…now I know to snog him if they ever piss me off…Ginny thought as she followed the boys out of the classroom.
"You're a very comfortable pillow, Sirius, thank-you." Ginny said as the walked to Defense Against the Dark Arts.
"Anytime," Sirius said, giving her his famous weak-in-the-knees inducing crooked half smile. Ginny smiled back and could see the girls swooning. They walked into Defense, to a teacher Ginny didn't recognize. I wonder who she is. Then again, I've never had a steady Defense teacher…She thought as she sat between Sirius and Remus.
"Good morning, class. Today is a reading day. Please turn to page 387 and read the whole chapter. I know it's not very exciting, but it's simple. Got to reading." She said.
"Who's that?" Ginny asked Remus, who was already ahead. He looked up at her and brushed his hair aside. It fell back in his face and he spoke.
"That's Professor Jamison. She's easy."
"Is she nice also?" Ginny said, brushing his hair lightly with her fingers. He blushed slightly.
"Yes, although she has her favorites."
"Like who?"
"Well…Lily, of course, and I'm pretty sure she favors me, and really likes James and Sirius." He said. Ginny giggled.
"Why?" Remus smiled and shrugged.
"She thinks they're funny."
"Oh, I see," Ginny said smiling. Gawd, his smile is sweet…I love it. Ginny thought as she and Remus went back to reading. Ginny was a speed reader, so she finished early and looked around the class. James and Sirius were playing a series of tic-tac-toe games (Sirius was losing) and Remus was done and organizing his book bag.
"Ginny Weasley?" Professor Jamison called. Ginny walked up to her desk. Jamison was about the same height as Ginny, but built along the lines of her mother. She had shorter black hair and brown eyes.
"When is your birthday?"
"Um…why?" Ginny asked. Jamison laughed.
"So I can give you a gift, of course!"
"Oh, well it was in the summer."
"Well, that's okay. Here," She said, handing Ginny a chocolate frog. "Happy belated birthday. I always give my students presents."
"Thank-you, Professor," Ginny said.
"You're welcome. You may sit." She said. Ginny sat down and opened her candy.
"Hey, I have about 13 of that one." Remus said, pointing to her card.
"You collect and trade?" Ginny asked.
"Ever since I knew what they were."
"Cool, me too." Ginny said. The bell rang and everyone packed up. They got up and went into the Great Hall for lunch.
"Yay! Food!" Sirius said, digging in.
"Is that all you ever think about?" Ginny asked, rolling her eyes.
"No…I think about girls, food, school, girls, food, pranks, girls, food, girls, and other things…did I mention girls?" He said.
"Yes, we've established that, Padfoot." Ginny said. They ate and talked about Quidditch mostly.
A/N: sorry, but you won't be seeing much of that dirty little rat Pettigrew…so don't hope on it…
"Let's go to Charms!" Ginny said happily.
"Yay," James said sarcastically.
"Hey, don't be dissing my favorite subject." Ginny said, poking him in the chest.
"Oh yeah? What are you going to do about it, huh? Huh?" He said grabbing her finger.
"I'll kick you where the sun don't shine." Ginny said, pulling her finger away. James backed away while holding up his hands.
"Erm…what are you talking about? I, uh, love Charms." Ginny laughed.
"Of course you do. Now, c'mon." She said, as they walked to Charms. When they walked in, tiny Professor Flitwick was standing on top of his usual stack of books. He took roll call and then clapped his hands together.
"Okay, class," He squeaked. "Let's begin! This spell requires a sharp jab. The incantation is 'orchideus', rather simple spell. Go on, everyone, try it!" Everyone pulled out their wands and tried it. The girls ooed and Ginny giggled.
"For you, milady," Sirius said, holding out the flowers.
"Why thank-you, kind sir." Ginny said, giggling harder. The girls were glaring at her again. Remus rolled his eyes, and James was trying to make his work. Apparently, Charms was not his forté.
"Transfiguration is easier." He grumbled. Ginny laughed.
"Here, jab it, like this." She showed him.
"Uh-huh," He said in concentration.
"Then say the incantation."
"Orchideus!" He said, making flowers appear. "Hey look!" He said excitedly. "I did it! Did you see?"
"Yes, Prongs, we saw it." Sirius said. Ginny laughed and watched James do it over and over again excitedly. The bell rang and they got up to go to Transfiguration.
"Now it's time for the best class. Let's go see Minnie!" James said happily as they walked to class.
"Minnie?" Ginny asked.
"Yeah, short for Minerva. She loves us." James said. Ginny rolled her eyes and walked into class. McGonagall took roll as well.
"Today we are transfiguring rocks into Labradors." She began.
"Cool. This I can do easily." James said to Ginny.
"Mr. Potter, kindly come up here and demonstrate."
"Yes, ma'am, Minnie." James said, walking to the front and pulling out his wand. Ginny saw McGonagall smile slightly and Lily shake her head in disgust. James got the first ten points for Gryffindor.
"She favors James. He's the best in the class." Sirius said. Ginny smiled and watched as James easily transfigured the rock. McGonagall smiled and James sat down. The class basically consisted of people trying to figure it out.
"Aww, he looks like you, Padfoot. Except maybe less hairier." James said about Ginny's Labrador. They probably think I don't know about how true that statement is. Ginny thought.
"I want to keep him," Ginny said, hugging the dog and kissing his head. The boys laughed. The bell rang and they walked down to dinner.
"Well that was a good day," Ginny said, sitting down next to Remus.
"Yeah, all the good classes." James said. They served themselves and talked about classes.
"Prongs, are you feeling okay?" Remus asked.
"Yeah, I'm feeling great. Why?"
"Well," Sirius said. "You haven't asked Lily out all day, let alone talk to her. And you haven't been staring at her either."
"Yeah, well, I'm just ignoring her to see her reaction. You know a little hard-to-get." He said, cutting up his steak.
"Oh, I see." Remus said. They continued eating peacefully. Remus pulled out his schedule and looked it over.
"The day looks pretty good, except the last class is with the Slytherins." He said. James and Sirius groaned.
"Did we have any homework today, Moony?" Sirius asked. Remus nodded his head.
"Essay in History and Transfiguration. I recommend doing the History one tonight and the Transfiguration one tomorrow."
"Good idea, Moony. You're so clever." Sirius said, patting his head.
"Let's go start it then." Ginny said standing up.
"Aww, man." James said. They trudged to the Common Room and got their stuff, and then they all sat around a table. Lily and her girls came in giggling and waving at Sirius (except for Lily). They went upstairs and left. Ginny and the guys worked quietly on their essays. (Well, almost as quietly as you can get with Sirius) It was almost 9:30 by the time Ginny got finished. Remus was reviewing his, and James and Sirius just needed 2 more inches, which they were complaining about. Ginny yawned.
"Remus, be my pillow." She said.
"Um, okay." He said, blushing a bit. Ginny scooted closer to him and put her head on his shoulder with her arm across his other one. She closed her eyes and, even though she couldn't see him, she knew Remus was blushing. She could hear James and Sirius suppressing laughter. Ginny dozed off for a while until Remus gently nudged her awake.
"Um, Ginny? It's 10, you should go to bed." He said.
"Mmm…5 more minutes…"Ginny mumbled, and held onto him tighter, causing him to really blush.
"Phoenix…let the poor kid go, he's tired. He needs sleep." James said.
"Okay," Ginny said, reluctantly letting Remus go. He was still blushing. "Night,"
"Night," They called. Ginny paused at the middle of the staircase to listen to their conversation.
"What's wrong with you, Remus?" James asked.
"Nothing," He replied quickly.
"Aww, does our little Moony have a crush on our little Phoenix?" Sirius said. Ginny wished she could see Remus' face, but she only heard his late response.
"Maybe…but there's really no point." He said.
"Aww, c'mon, Remus, she likes you. Besides, if she ever does find out about your…condition…she won't be prejudice like other people, I promise." James said.
"I don't know. Besides, I think she likes you, Sirius." Remus said.
"Well, can you blame her? Only joking, Moony, gosh. Look, it's just like Lily. I can't go out with her because James likes her. This is the same thing. She's all yours. But you better make the first move on her before someone else does, because someone's bound to." Sirius said.
"Yeah, I know. C'mon, let's go to bed." Remus said. The boys left and Ginny went up to her dorm and lied on her bed with the curtains shut.
Wow…well…I sort of knew that he liked me…I guess it was kind of obvious…but still…he's way too shy, he'll never make the first move…yeah but he flirts with me though…I better hit on him just to prove to him that I like him too…he's so cute and nice how can I not? Ginny thought as she drifted off to sleep.
