Chapter Five – Questions
"Ginny. What happened yesterday? You just kind of disappeared after breakfast this morning. Are you ok?" Hermione asked as soon as I came out of my room that night. I probably looked a mess. I had cried myself to sleep earlier, and whenever I awoke I cried again. It seemed like everything was going wrong.
"I'm fine Hermione. I just wasn't feeling too well this morning to I just went back to my room. I slept most of the day.
"Hey how come I've never seen your room?" Hermione suddenly asked.
"I don't know why do you want to?" I asked hesitantly.
"Yea, how about we do that right now before the guys get back?" I had hoped that she would say no, but since I had no such luck I would rather it be just her.
"Sure come on Hermione." I led her towards my room and whispered the password. I didn't want her to overhear it and set off a whole new set of questions about why it was French for tears. We walked into the rooms and she looked around. I had taken her to a smaller version of the Common Room. The only visible difference was the color choices. Also my fireplace was charmed so that if someone was in my rooms it would light up automatically.
"Wow Ginny, this definitely isn't the way I pictured your rooms to look. Why these colors?" she asked staring at the Emerald Green in the wall. It was currently a splash color wall with bits of each color in the walls. Most likely reflected how confused I was about everything right now.
"I put some of each house color in the room Hermione. I decided to do something a bit different." I flopped down on a chair looking at the walls. Another reason was I felt like I didn't belong in any of the houses. I was put into a house that no longer wanted me. How was I really supposed to feel about my house? But I didn't dare let Hermione know that. I got up and walked over to the fireplace. I had been about to go to the Kitchens to get some food when Hermione decided she wanted to see my room. And I knew that my room was connected via floo to the Kitchens when I got a better idea.
"Dobby." I called out hoping it would work. I had overheard Ron and Harry doing this last year. Seconds later Dobby the house-elf was in front of me.
"Yes, Miss Ginny? How can Dobby help you?" he asked in his squeaky voice.
"Can you bring up something for me to eat, and some butterbeer, actually make that enough for Hermione and I" I asked returning to my seat. Hermione looked at me disapprovingly I guess she was still against house-elf work.
"Sure, anything for a friend of Harry Potter's." he said popping back into the kitchen. He returned seconds later with a tray laden with food.
"Thank you Dobby, that will be all." I grabbed some food and started to eat. That was when Hermione decided to get her voice back.
"Ginny is this the first you've eaten since breakfast this morning. Actually did you even eat this morning?" I was surprised she didn't yell at me for using a house-elf.
"No I ate today." I lied. " My fireplace is connected to the Kitchens. I was using that to get some food.
"Ok good. Oh the first Hogsmeade weekend is next weekend. Want to go with Harry, Ron, and I?" she asked, it made me wonder if she knew about Harry and I.
"Umm sure, if I go I promise to hang out with you three." I lied again. I hated lying yet here I was doing it again to one of my only friends. My answer seemed to please Hermione though.
"Well I have to go finish my Defense homework since we have that class tomorrow. Oh Ginny do you plan on coming to classes tomorrow?"
"Yea. I plan on it." I replied. Taking another bite of food. Hermione left back into the Common Room leaving me alone to think. I decided to go find Colin and ask him what homework I had missed. He was one of the few people in my year that would talk to me. Luckily he was in the Common Room so I didn't have to look too hard to find him.
"Hey Colin. What homework did I miss today." I replied flopping down on the couch next to him. He didn't look up from his assignment. He just handed me a piece of parchment
"Here all of it is due next class." He said. I glanced at the list.
"I think I'm going to go to the library and try to get some of this done." I sighed getting up. I headed out of the Common Room. As I was walking out Harry and Ron walked back in.
"Hey Gin… missed you today." Ron said as he walked past, but Harry stopped walking.
"Ginny. I'm sorry. Please forgive me?" he said as soon as Ron was out of earshot.
"Harry I already gave you an answer, now leave me alone." I replied refusing to look at him. I started to head towards the portrait hole.
"No Ginny listen to me." Once again he grabbed my wrist. It was in the same place as this morning so it was really painful. But Harry didn't notice my wince when he grabbed me. He was too intent on his own intentions. So intent on them he didn't notice that Ron came back towards him followed by Hermione.
"Harry what are you doing to my sister? It looks like she's in pain. " Ron said trying to get Harry to release my wrist. When he wouldn't Hermione grabbed her wand a muttered a spell. Immediately my wrist was removed from Harry's grasp.
"Now Harry please explain why it looked like Ginny was in pain." Hermione calmly stated.
"I didn't realize she was in pain." He stated dumbly.
"It was all over her face that she was in pain." Ron shot. He had anger in his voice, but none of it was written on his face.
"Ron it was nothing. Now if you'll excuse me I have homework to do and I need to go to the library to finish it." I said walking away from the prying eyes of my 'friends'.
