Disclaimer: If I were all powerful, I would buy Star Wars and Harry Potter and live forevermore in a land of complete fantasy. But alas, I am not all powerful, so I doomed to simply write about it.
Acromantula, I'm glad to hear my writing isn't entirely too predictable. lily 101, Ginny REALLY likes Harry. If you refer to my user profile, you'll see just how much I think they belong together. special2, yeah, I know Ginny comes off that way a little bit, and she is in this chapter, too, but I think I've fixed it so she won't act like that anymore after this chapter. duckyv91 and Harry94Ginny, I'll update as soon as I can. Chapter 7 is already in the works.
Chapter 6: A Solution to the Problem
"So, anyway mate, we're sorry."
"Yeah, we shouldn't have gotten so mad at you for walking in on us."
"But really, things like this are going to happen more often, so you should probably get over it."
"What do you mean, more often? Ginny's going back to school and we're going on the horcrux hunt."
"Actually, Ginny's coming with us. Come to think of it, we should invite Neville and Luna too. We need all the help we can get."
"Ginny has to finish school!"
"I'm not going back, Ron. I'm going to the Ministry to take my NEWT equivalency and Apparition exams, just like you, Harry, Hermione, Neville, and Luna, if they come with us. If I do go back to Hogwarts, it will only be to get Neville and Luna, and only if we neglect to get them before September!"
"Fine," Ron sighed resignedly. "Should we write to Luna and Neville, or floo, or what?"
"Okay. Let's walk down to Luna's; she just lives in the village. Once we convince her, we'll floo to Neville's and she can help us convince him. We'll all go home to pack, or in Neville's case, stay home to pack, and meet somewhere, probably Luna's, tomorrow morning and set off on this year's grand adventure."
"Sounds good to me. That okay with you, Ron?"
"Sure. I'll go get Hermione."
"So you walked in…"
"Yep."
"And they were…"
"Uh-huh."
"No way."
"See that Harry? They're so close they can read each others' minds. Why can't we do that?"
"I don't know. Maybe we can. We haven't exactly tried it, now have we?"
"No, I guess not. Think something fast," Ginny said as she screwed up her fase in concentration.
'You're hot.'
'Thanks. You're not so bad yourself.'
'Are we really hearing each others' thoughts?'
'Yeah. Sweet! Now I don't have to worry about people overhearing when we talk about certain topics.'
'Like what?'
A picture drifted breezily to the front of Harry's mind. A picture of a scantily clad Ginny and an even more scantily clad, though thankfully still clad, Harry. The scantily clad Ginny was slowly advancing on the scantily clad Harry, carrying a rope, a blindfold, a quill, and a bottle of chocolate sauce…
Harry let out a surprised squeak. Ginny gave Harry a seductive wink and sent an even more seductive thought.
'Does little Harry want to come out and play?'
"Harry! Harry, are you all right?" Hermione asked as she shook Harry's shoulders. Harry realized he had been staring off into space with a shocked expression on his face for several seconds.
"What are you looking at?" Ron moved to stand next to Harry and looked at the same spot Harry had been staring at. "I don't see anything."
A few feet ahead on the road, Ginny was nearly dying from the strain of concealing her giggles. She knew exactly what Harry had been looking at.
"Hurry up, you guys. We're almost there!"
Ron and Hermione hurried ahead, leaving Ginny to wait for Harry to snap out of his dazed state. He walked slowly up the path to meet her, and Ginny couldn't help but laugh at his confused look.
"Ginny, love, can you not do that?"
"Why? Don't you want to?"
"YES! That's exactly why I need you to stop bringing it up. So I won't be tempted."
"Are you waiting until you're married, or something?"
Harry looked at the ground and started digging a small hole with his foot.
"You are! Oh, that explains everything! I never would have tried to get you into bed if I'd known that! Why didn't you tell me?"
"When? What would I have said? 'Ginny will you be my girlfriend? You will? That's great. Oh, and by the way, I'm waiting for marriage, so we're not going to have sex for a very long time, if ever.' You would have thought I was being an arrogant prick for assuming you even wanted to boink me."
"Boink you? Okay, one, boink? You're a big boy, Harry, you can say the word. Sex. Say it with me now, sex. Good. Two, of course I want to boink you! You're the bloody boy who lived! Every Gryffindor girl twelve and above, not to mention quite a few in the other houses, wants to boink you! But you're waiting for marriage, so I will too."
"Thank you Ginny."
Harry wrapped his arms around Ginny and pulled her close. She laid her head on his shoulder and hugged him back.
"Oi! We've been standing at the gate for five minutes! Get your horny butts down here!"
"Ron, charming as ever," Harry said in a sarcastic tone while rolling his eyes.
"No joke. Great sense of timing, too."
A/N-okay, the thought Ginny sent Harry was a reference to another story, The Seduction of Mr Moony, by Ms.Demeanour, specifically chapter 7. I warn you, it is a slash story, and rather graphic, so if you don't like that, don't read it, but if you don't mind or you like slash, by all means, read it, it will explain the reference and it is a particularly good story, I must say, and I hope she doesn't mind my endorsement.
