House Unity-
Chapter Four- Slow Dancing

AN: Okay, so I don't really like this story. But I got a request to update, and I'm gonna try and make it better.

Harry and Ginny, and Ron and Hermione, were sitting on the plush gold, silver, purple, and blue striped chairs. Ginny was fingering a frayed hole in the arm of her chair. The Weird Sisters were playing, "My Wizard Is No Ghost" and the lead singer, was screaming out the lyrics, her blond hair sticking wildly out.

Harry and Ginny had been talking about everything, from Quidditch to the DA, but Ron and Hermione had been quiet, staring down at their laps, for nearly the entire night. Ginny looked desperately at Harry.

"Um, Harry, could I talk to you for a minute?" She said, forcing a smile.

"Oh. Yeah." Harry replied. Ginny grabbed his wrist and pulled him quite forcefully towards the refreshment table, next to the stage.

"Harry, we-" She was interrupted by the blond lead singer.

"My wizard is no ghost. He's the one I love the most."

Ginny sighed, grabbed Harry's wrist, and led him near the bathrooms, which were covered in a swirl of gold, silver, blue and purple fabrics.

"There we go. Now, Harry. How do we get them to talk to each other?"

Harry was a little taken aback. "How should I know, Ginny? Usually they don't shut up!"

Ginny pursed her lips. "That's different, Harry. They're just friends, usually, even though everyone knows they like each other. But even now Hermione is so insecure she doesn't even believe Ron likes her, and is afraid to say or do anything. And I'm sure Ron is the same."

"So what am I supposed to do?" He tried to sound a nice as possible, but it still came out sounding accusatory.

"Just talk to them, Harry. Make them answer back. Understand?" Harry nodded. He felt a little on the spot as he approached Ron and Hermione. Ginny stood next to him, introducing topics and talking and then, eventually, shutting Harry up so Ron and Hermione could talk.

Ginny pulled him away from them just as a new song from the Weird Sisters started.

"What is it?" Harry demanded.

"Nothing. Let's just leave them alone for a while. They won't even notice."

"So . . . what do we do now?"

"Um . . ." For the first time Ginny looked nervous. "Dance?"

Harry looked towards the stage. A slow, romance-y song was on now. The lead singer crooned into the microphone. "I don't want a Firebolt, I'll snap my wand in two. I'll live without an owl, Just don't make me live without YOOOOOOOOO."

On the other hand, what else was there to do. And, looking at Ginny, beautiful in her dress robes, he realized there was probably no one else he'd rather slow dance with.

So Harry and Ginny danced to "All For You." And Harry Potter, smelling Ginny's flowery smell, realized that he really truly like-liked Ginny Weasely.

Okay, so it's a little odd. But what ever. R&R!
