*Pout* oh well enjoy!
A/N: this was written before the 5th book came out. So none of that stuff has happened yet. Ginny still has a bit of a crush on Harry and she's never had a boyfriend. Ok that's all you need to know I think. Enjoy!
Ginny flopped down onto her bed and surveyed her room, it was so. girlish, she had always liked it before, she was a very girlish girl, as her friend Samantha had once told her. But did Harry like girlie girls? Maybe she should ask to get her room painted. After all she was 15 now, no longer a little girl.
No. she wasn't going to change who she was, not even for Harry. If he didn't like her they way she was well he could just go stuff himself. Who cares what Harry thinks.
Well maybe a little change is a good thing, "no bad Ginny" she grumbled to herself "he isn't nor has he ever been interested in you. Get over it!"
"do you always talk to yourself?"
Ginny let out an involuntary yelp of surprise, and a thousand thoughts flew through her head at once, mostly consisting of, 'what if Harry was standing behind her' Turning round she was relieved to find it wasn't Harry, instead it was her big brother Charlie.
"Charlie!" she exclaimed as she jumped over her bed and threw herself at him, "I thought you weren't coming home till. well not now"
Charlie wrapped his little sister in a big friendly bear hug "well I missed you, and I wanted to give you this, I got it for your birthday, and I wanted to give you it in person, sorry I missed the big day"
"it's ok" she assured him "I got you're owl, thanks. Now gimmy" she jokingly demanded as she took her present.
It was a little gold box, that just fit into the palm of her hand. The whole thing was covered in tiny little leafs, "it's beautiful" she told him in awe "thank you"
"your welcome, but I can't work out how to open it. I thought it was pretty though. Now who is this guy that isn't interested? Need me to hurt him?"
"Charlie" she complained "I'm not telling you"
"oh come on Ginnykins," he said in a sing song voice
She threw a pillow at him, she hadn't been called 'Ginnykins' since she was a tiny little girl and she didn't want that to start again. She wasn't a little girl any more, she was a young woman. And she was going to be treated like one. starting today.
Charlie looked at his watch, well I better go, I've got to meet someone soon. I'll talk to you when I get back ok?"
"you can't go, you just got here"
he ruffled her hair playfully before saying "it's business Gin, I'll catch you later" then he headed to the door.
"when will you be back?" she asked
"dinner" he replied then was gone.
Ginny sat on her bed for a while before realising she was completely bored and headed down the stairs. Only her mum was there, odd she was sure Ron and Hermione had been in the living room all morning. Hermione was staying for a while before they all started back at school. "where are Ron and Hermione?" she asked her mother. Hermione was staying with them till the end of the summer, mostly because she had begged her dad, a favour to Ron, which ment he owed her, always fun. Ron and Hermione had finally started going out a little before the start of the summer. And Ron had decided not to tell the family, Ginny only knew because, well every one at school knew.
"Fred went with them to pick up Harry, they should be here soon. She said glancing up at the big clock, Harry and Hermione had been added to it the year before and both them, Ron and Fred's arrows all pointed to 'out'
"Fudge!" Ginny muttered sharply under her breath. Harry would be here soon, and she looked awful,
she was perfectly fine, ok so she wasn't exactly dressed for a dinner party, but her faded blue jeans and scruffy white T-shirt were just fine. She was over Harry. And that was Final.
She sat herself down onto the large over stuffed couch, and put the little radio onto a music station. The radio was half way through it's second song when she heard a loud bang from the front garden, Both Ginny and her mum jumped up and ran outside to see what had happened. Ron, Fred, Hermione and Harry were all Lying in a crumpled heap on the ground.
"I knew there was a reason I hated Port keys" Harry muttered sourly.
"oh good lord!" Molly Weasly exclaimed as she rushed towards the group, followed closely by Ginny.
Ron stood up helped by his mother then turned to help Hermione stand. Ginny held out her hand to Harry without thinking and he took it. Just that simple touch sent a small shiver up her arm, but she pushed it away, she was only helping the guy to stand up, no big deal, right?
She expected to be blushing, as she usually did when ever he was near her, let alone holding her hand, but her face didn't feel hot. Well that was good, should she try and talk to him? Yes she should, ok think Ginny think, what should she say? "you ok?" she asked, well that worked, and just to make the moment even better she still wasn't blushing.
Uh, yeah. I'm fine. Thanks" he told her as he brushed himself off. Then she turned and walked into the house before she lost her calm demeanour. Well that hadn't been to bad had it?
~*~
After Molly had concluded that no one was hurt due to the disastrous port- Key adventure, she had let them all sit down to a beautifully prepared meal, suddenly Harry felt like he hadn't eaten for days, he was starved. And he didn't even refuse when Mrs Weasly offered him a third helping.
It was good to be back, this was his home, not with the Durslies, thankfully he wouldn't be spending any more time with them, ever. As he was now 16, and legally and adult, they had asked him to move out. Well it was more like being thrown out. But he really couldn't care less. Ron had invited him to live with them until they had finished school then they were planning on getting a flat together. Life was good.
Harry noticed that Ginny wasn't at the table, but that wasn't unusual. He hardly ever saw the girl, when ever he was around she would always hide from him, he really hadn't expected anything less.
But then she came into the room and sat at her place across from him. And if that wasn't shocking enough. She didn't spill a thing all evening. Was she finally over her crush? Or maybe she had just grown up. A quick look at her confirmed that thought, she had most certainly grown up. Or had she always looked like that? Surly not, but then the school robes were really not very flattering.
She looked lovely, had her hair always been that colour? like a thousand different shades of fire. Of course it had. Harry had just never really looked at her before. And he should probably stop doing it now because someone was bound to notice, this was stupid. How could he be thinking about Ginny like that. Ron's little sister. It was just wrong. And judging by the way she had been acting she wasn't interested in him any more. ###
"this is really nice Mrs Weasly" Hermione said bringing Harry out of his thoughts.
"oh don't tell me dear, Ginny made that" Mrs weasly told Hermione
Ginny looked up at the mention of her name "Ginny made what?" she asked suspiciously, having not been paying attention.
"the cake, the one you made yesterday" Mrs weasly told her daughter
"oh right. You like it?"
"it's really nice" Hermione told her "you need to teach me how to make it"
Ginny smiled shyly and she could feel the blood rushing to her face, why couldn't she just take a complement. "yeah, I'll do that, may I be excused please?" this she asked her mum.
"sure, are you ok?" Molly asked concerned
"yeah mum I'm fine, I just have some homework to do. so, um bye" and with that she got up and headed to her room.
(A/N):To be continued. ( I hope)
please r/r, let me know what you guys think, and I won't update this until I have at least one review, cuz I see no point in writing more if no one is going to read it. I hope ya'll like it, and a word of warning, I'm not a hundred percent sure where this is going, so be prepared for anything. lol Luv 'n' hugs T S X x x
