Hello and Goodbye

Day 50

Another ten days while I live a life of human existence at its lamest, and still nothing has happened. Harry stopped Malfoy from committing suicide the other day. That was probably the most exciting thing that happened. I'm kinda jealous of Malfoy. He gets to go to the Hospital Wing instead of the dorms. So much more interesting. I finally got a chance to see Harry. It was after his class. McGonagall forget to send Slughorn to get us and so everyone sat there for about ten minutes before people started going back to the Library or something. Lately everyone has been sitting in the bathrooms talking. That is the only place that the Order or the staff can't follow us. In the girls loo's we all stand in there talking about our different dorms. Even the Slyhterins are relatively nice to us. We found out that all relationships are suffering. The girls sheerly aren't able to see their boyfriends. I'm looking forward to Christmas already. Harry said he would come home for it. Maybe I will get a chance to talk to him. I have had enough of this. I'm so bored even a piece of homework would be welcome now. Mum has been kind enough to send Hermione and I magazines and makeup. She even sent me music one week. And occasionally she sends a block of Honeydukes. I have learnt very little I think. I would give anything to be able to get on my broom and just kick off for a couple of hours.

Anyway, back to Harry. I finally got to see him. Everyone had gone and I went up to him and gave him a hug. He gave me a kiss on the head (because he's so much taller than me) and then before we could say a word Slughorn waddles up and says. 'Oh! I forgot the sixth years! Well the bells about to ring.'

And that was the end of my time with Harry. I looked apologetically at him as he was dragged off with the other seventh years to go to his next class.

Anyway. I'm going now.

Day 55,

I am really going have to talk to McGonagall about this boredom campaign thing of hers.

Day 56,

TORTURE! Shoot me now. Somebody! Strike me down with lightning. SOMETHING! I'm going to bed.

Day 60.

Guess what! McGonagall told us this morning that we are in danger of an attack on the school. They are moving us to a safe place. A 'safe place'. Garbage. Anyway. Sounds like they're trying to get us energised. Its chamber of secrets all over again Hermione says. Everyone is travelling in packs with teachers. We're moving out tomorrow night. How scary! I have to pack.

Ginny

Later.

No. Harry is planning on staying. And McGonagall says that's 'fine'! Hermione says she would stay and then Ron and I said us too. But she told us to get ready to leave! So I have to sit in here pacing our dorms. There are so few of us now that all the Gryffindor's fit into two dorms. Ron is still trying to fight the 'Headmistress' to let him stay. Harry followed me up to the dorms. I ignored him because I was to close to tears again. He followed me into the empty common room. He looked at me nad he said, 'Ginny. I'm sorry. This is my duty. I have to do it.'
I looked at my boyfriend. He was pale and his green eyes were shining. I couldn't leave him. I loved him too much. He only just came back to me. How could I let him slip away from me again?

I began to sob. I let my head flop onto my knees as I sank to the floor. 'Shh… Don't cry Ginny.' He said comfortingly coming over to me on the couch. He held me around my shoulders. He paused and then he pulled me closer. He pressed his lips to mine in a breathtaking kiss. Wow. He was a good kisser.

He pulled away and he let me sit there still crying. Finally as I was slowly falling asleep on his lap he said, 'Gin. You have to get up and pack. Hermione is calling for you.'

I nodded grimly. I had to go. I slowly left my boyfriend behind as I climbed the stairs.

I packed the last of my possessions and then packed myself a bag full of magazines and other uninteresting stuff. I shoved the last package of sweets that Mum had sent me in there too. Finally Arnold went into the bag carefully. He squeaked a bit when I tried to fit him in there but finally he obliged. Then I sank heavily onto my bed and fell asleep.

When I woke up it was three o'clock in the morning. That is now. So now that I have written in here, I am packing my diary into my bag with my photos and I am going to get my last precious hours of peaceful sleep.

Day 61

I am in a small carriage with Ron, Hermione, Neville, Luna and Gabrielle. Crookshanks is sitting on Hermione's lap sleeping quietly. I am writing because a lot has happened this morning. But back to the carriage. Pig is perched on the carriages curtain rods. Trevor is also in here but he's sitting under Neville's feet. We're all squished into the small carriage all lost in our own thoughts. Luna has a copy of the Quibbler in her hands but she doesn't seem to be even reading it. Hermione has Hogwarts a History poking out of the top of her bag but she is sitting there staring into space. Ron is vaguely flicking through a book about Quidditch and I decided that I should write in here about what happened this morning.

McGonagall woke us up at 5 am. We all got dressed wearily and the house elves dragged our trunks downstairs. We all grabbed our bags and headed down to the hall. Harry was already there. McGonagall tried to shepherd us out to the entrance hall but I needed to say goodbye. I tried to get to him but I couldn't. Then McGonagall bent down to me and whispered, 'Go now. Say goodbye.' I was shocked. I didn't think anyone knew about Harry and I. But I nodded and struggled through the group of people. Finally I reached Harry. This was it. And I knew it. I had to say goodbye. My boyfriend hugged me tenderly and then he kissed me. 'I'll miss you.' I said and I felt a couple of tears slide down my face. ' Ditto.' He said sadly.

'Come back to me.' I said, the tears I had been trying to hold back streaming down my face.

'I love you Ginny.'

I began to sob again and he held me tight until I had calmed down. McGonagall came over and took me gently by the arm. 'Come on Miss Weasley, The carriages are waiting.'

I began to cry as I walked away from the love of my life. I felt in my heart, that this was the last time.

A/N: Bit of a cliffy huh? Sorry how I dragged the past two chappies out a bit. But I should have chapter seven up really really soon.
