Chapter 12: Waiting For YouWhen Harry woke up, he found himself to be magically bound to a wall. It seemed as though he was in the Riddle Mansion. Why did the death eaters always bring him here, of all places? It would be the first on any search party's list to look. What did Voldemort want anyway? He knew Voldemort wanted him dead, but…maybe there was something more than that?
Straining his ears to hear anything, he heard the Crucatius being yelled and then heard a scream. The one who cast it was Voldemort, he was sure, but who…
Suddenly the door creaked open, and he could've sworn he heard someone stuttering. "T-T-The D-D-Dark L-L-Lord wants m-m-me to bring y-y-you to h-him."
He instantly knew to whom the voice belonged to. Pettigrew. "Get away from me," he spat. Pettigrew jumped, but just moved closer. He undid the charm to binding Harry to the wall, and Harry reluctantly followed Pettigrew downstairs. When they reached the bottom, Pettigrew opened a door, and inside it, sat Voldemort, waiting for him.
Harry felt immense pain in his scar, and then he felt more. Apparently the pain wasn't from the scar. Voldemort had cast the Crucatius curse on him.
"Yes, that does hurt, doesn't it, Potter?"he sneered. "I'm sure you felt something similar to this before. CRUCIO!"
(Diagon Alley)-
Ginny, James and Sirius had gone to Diagon Alley to get Remus, Ron, Hermione and Lily. When they met up with each other, the other four looked extremely worried when Harry wasn't with them.
"Where's Harry?"Ron asked.
"Kidnapped,"Ginny whispered before blacking out.
(Hogwarts, Gryffindor Common Room)-
When Ginny woke up, she found herself to be on a couch in the Common Room. She felt a hand on her and realized she must be in Ron's lap. To her, everything seemed quiet. But…
When she remembered everything, she could've cried. Harry — her Harry, was kidnapped right before her eyes. Why had she not seen it coming? Death Eaters had been surrounding the store for God's sake! She hardly noticed fresh tears coming down her cheeks until they were streaming down rapidly. She started crying.
Ron and Hermione were startled to find Ginny awake and crying her heart out. However, Ron pulled her up and hugged her. She hugged back, still crying. "H-Harry — "
"Is being searched for as we wait, Ginny,"Hermione said soothingly. "Lily, James, Sirius, Remus and Dumbledore went to search for him. So have other members from the Order."
"Who else?"Ginny asked.
"Moody, Mundungus, Tonks, and dad,"Ron replied.
"We will find him, Ginny,"Hermione Surely they said. "With all of them searching."
"Why can't they let us search for him? I love him for Merlin's sake!"Ginny exclaimed.
"Exactly the reason they don't want you or us to go,"Hermione said. "If Voldemort happens to find out that you and Harry are 'involved', he will go after you and use you to get to Harry."
"Yeah, I guess,"Ginny said.
"Ginny, we know you and Harry love each other, but, how much do you love him?"Hermione asked.
"W-What? Why are you asking me this?"Ginny asked.
"I just don't want his heart broken,"Hermione replied. "He was the first friend I made at Hogwarts and I'll be damned if I let anything happen to him. You don't need me as your enemy."
Ginny sighed, knowing this was very well going to come later anyway. "I love Harry with all my heart, and would die for him. Happy, now?"
Hermione smiled, and nodded. "Yes. He is truly lucky, though. To have someone like you, Ginny."
"How?"
"If people were wanting to get with him for a shag or a relationship, most of it is because of his fame,"Hermione explained. "Nobody wants him because he's him. Only because he's the 'Boy-Who-Lived'. He's lucky to have someone like you, Ginny. Out of all the girls he was with, I didn't hear any say 'I love you', or 'I'd die for you' like you did."
"That's just how I feel, Hermione,"Ginny stated. "Especially, when I saw the Dursleys in front of the staff table. I just wanted to rip out their hearts. I don't care if they're tiny and hard to find."
Ron snickered at that one. "Too true, Ginny. Too true."
"What do we do while we wait for them to come with Harry?"Ginny asked, gently leaning back into Ron's embrace, sighing.
"Just wait, I suppose,"Hermione replied. "Or sleep. It is 9 o'clock after all."
Ginny and Ron looked at one another, then at the clock. It really was nine. Wow. Time flies when you were worried.
"I guess we'll sleep."
"I'm not sleeping alone tonight,"Ginny stated. "I don't want to. I always sleep with Harry. It feels too odd to be alone."
"C'mon, Ginny,"Ron said, yawning, pulling her up with him. "You can come with me. Just don't try any funny stuff."
"Like…"Ginny and Hermione smirked, wondering what he was going to say.
"Like hogging the blanket like you used to do when we were kids, rolling ontop of me, kicking me off the bed…"by then Hermione and Ginny were laughing so hard they were on the floor.
"I never did that!"Ginny exclaimed, laughing. "Honestly, Ron!"
"Innocent until proven guilty,"Ron smirked. "Which'll be tonight."
