The character belong to the great J.K. Rowling…definitely not me!

In another part of the castle…

This was the opportunity that Ginny had been waiting for. All she had to do was find out where Harry was hiding. She wanted to be alone with him. Whenever they were together, it was always when Ron and Hermione were with them. They had always been "the Golden Trio", but since the end of fifth year, Ginny had joined the group. Now, it was always the four of them. Ginny loved being able to be with Harry so often and have him actually consider her one of his closest friends. Friendship was not all she wanted though. Ginny had always been interested in Harry. My god, who wouldn't be? Harry had grown into one the finest looking guys she knew. He was about 6 ft tall, not as tall as her brother Ron, but still a respectable height. What about those green eyes? A girl could easily get lost in them. Of course there was his smile, absolutely fabulous, and that body! Oh my, quidditch defiantly did him good. But even with all his physical greatness, most importantly, Harry was kind, he was loyal, brave, smart, and completely unaware of how great he actually was. Talk about sexy! Her innocent crush had grown into a full-blown attraction. The bad thing was, Harry had no idea, and quite frankly, Ginny was not going to inform him. She had decided that she was willing to suffer in silence about liking him in exchange for avoiding what she was sure to be an embarrassing moment where Harry would be revolted at the thought of them as more than friends. She was positive about that. Positive that was until two days ago.

Flashback

Harry, Ginny, Ron, and Hermione were lounging on their usual couches in the common room and of course Ron and Hermione were engaged in one of their usual rows. Ginny wasn't sure what actually started this one, but once again, they were yelling.

"Ron, you are so lazy sometimes. You're behind in everything. If you want to have any kind of future, you are going to have to step it up!"

"Back off Hermione! You're always lecturing me. Can you cool it for even one day?"

Harry and Ginny looked at each other and rolled their eyes. Harry leaned in and whispered, "I'm bored with this. Wanna take a walk?"

Are you kidding, Ginny thought to herself, I'll go anywhere with you!

"Sure" she whispered back. "They'll never know we left."

Harry and Ginny got up and slipped out of the common room. They walked down to the entrance hall and out the front door onto the grounds.

"I wish they would just snog each other and get it over with." Harry said. "How is it that everyone in this school can see the tension between the two of them and they still refuse to admit it to one another?"

"Sometimes its hard to see what is right in front of you." Ginny commented, "Besides, I think they're both scared."

"Of what?" Harry asked. "They are the best of friends. Nothing could change that. Them getting together would only make their friendship that much better."

"It doesn't matter how good of friends they are. The possibility of telling someone that you have known forever and are great friends with that you like them as more than friends is enough to scare anyone. Rejection is frightening!" Ginny shuddered.

Harry chuckled, " Sounds like you've been thinking a lot about this."

"Well, I guess I have in a way. Admitting your feeling for someone is hard."

"Who do you want to admit your feelings too?" Harry asked raising an eyebrow to her, "I think you're talking more about yourself than Ron and Hermione."

"Maybe I am" Ginny said slyly, " But then again, it doesn't matter for me. The guy I'm thinking of would never want me as anything more than a friend."

Harry spun around and stopped abruptly in front of her. "How do you know? Don't sell yourself short Ginny. You are an amazing girl! Any guy would be lucky to have you."

"Really Harry?" Ginny asked apprehensively

"Really." Suddenly they were very close. Harry was only inches from her face. They were both breathing deep now. Harry leaned in tilting his head slightly…

"Hey there you guys are!" yelled Ron. He and Hermione were walking toward the two of them. "What happened to you two? We turned around and suddenly you guys were gone. Why did you run off?"

"Because Ron," Ginny yelled at him, "You're an idiot!" And with that she turned and headed up to the castle with Hermione quickly following.

"What did I do?" Ron asked Harry.

"Just being you, " Harry sighed as he looked at Ginny walking away from him. "Your timing sucks you know." He turned and shoved his hands in his pocket headed toward the lake.

End Flashback

Ginny was sure that if her stupid brother had not interrupted them, Harry would have kissed her. They had been avoiding each other in a way ever since. Maybe there was a chance that Harry could feel more than friendship for her. After Lavender had proposed this little game, Ginny decided that this was the time to corner Harry alone and talk to him. She knew that they were supposed to be hiding by themselves, but this was one time where she was going to break the rules. Harry had bolted as soon as Lavender said go, and Ginny wasn't able to see where he had gone.

"Don't worry" Ginny said to herself as she peered around the dark corner. "You'll find him."

She was on the forth floor and heard some noises coming from a classroom up ahead. She slowly opened the door.

"Uhhhh" she almost vomited. Lavender and Dean were going at in on a desk at the front of the classroom. She quickly shut the door.

"That was the most disgusting thing I have seen in a long time" she shuddered. "But then again, if I have my way, that may just be me and Harry before the night is over."

Meanwhile somewhere else in the castle…

The coin still hadn't changed color. Neville was starting to get cramps in his legs. Come on Hermione, he thought to himself. Find someone already will you! Once again, little did he know, she already had. But unfortunately for Neville, Hermione was not the least bit interested in ending the game just yet.
