"Ron, I need to tell you someting." Carlie said.
"Ok, I'll be back."Ron said and followed Carlie towards the trees.
"Think they're gonna kiss and make up?" Asked hermione, dazing ahead at something in the sky. Harry nodded,
"Yeah, and it's about time they did."
"Ron, we never got to that lesson you promised."Carlie said, a little seductively. "Carlie, we broke up. I didn't think you still wanted that, um.. lesson," Ron said, blushing slightly. Carlie stuttered.
"I-I guess..." She leaned in and they kissed deeply for what felt like years. Finally, Carlie and Ron parted, Carlie went to her group, after a promise to meet later that night.
"Hey Ron, what did she want?" Hermione asked.
"Nothing." He muttered.
The day drew on, and Harry wasn't looking forward to Practice. Now that Fred and George were in charge, the team has done well. Harry went up to the dormitories and changed for quidditch. As he walked down the stairs he saw Ginny. He took her hand and spun her around and gave her a kiss.
"You sneaky bugger!" She said. She kissed him back and they smiled.
"Ginny, you want to join me for practice?" He asked. She nodded and they left the common room.
They walked across the field and Ginny left to sit in the stands. Harry soared up to talk to Fred and George.
"So, today we will do our own thing. ok, lets see. How about, we play against each other?" Fred said. The team agreed.
"Ok, we have seven players... Harry, how about you getting a broom for Ginny so she can play?" George said. Harry got off his broom and went to the broom claoset with Ginny.
"Ok, Ginny, which one do you want?" he asked. She looked around and found, with Harry's help, the fastest broom. they walked together down to the field. the team split up and the mini game began. Harry and Ginny soared above the rest. They both ended up being seekers. Ginny raced him around the field until she saw it. She zoomed forward and caught it.
"Harry, pull yourself together! She's only Ginny!" Fred said. they started another game. harry got the snitch that time. They kept playing until it was very dark. Harry and Ginny walked to the dorms together. Ginny went her way. When she got in the dorm, someone blidfolded her and knocked her unconcious. when she woke, she couldn't make out where she was. She muttered. Two muffled voices argued. They were both masked, but it seemed to be a boy and a girl. She felt tired again and fell asleep.Ginny woke up. This time, she was able to see she was in a room. it must have been late, because she couldn't see much. She saw a guy and a girl pass her. "Help!" she yelled. they didn't seem to notice. She kept shouting until someone cme up to her.
"No ones here, so you could keep shouting, or shut up!" It was a girl. Ginny sat there for what felt like hours. Then she was moved to another room. It looked like the dormitories, but not Gryfindors. "Carlie!" she said. "Carlie, Don't hurt me! Please!" The girl stopped and turned to face her. it sounded as if she was crying, until her laughter grew louder.
"Oh dear Ginny, what makes you think I'm Carlie?" She said, before knocking her back into a deep slumber.
"Ron! Hermione and Ginny are gone!" Harry yelled. They ran down to the great hall. they looked up and down the table, but she wasn't there.
"Well, Malfoy must have moved up to kidnapping." Ron said. They ran to the Slytherin common room. Harry kept trying passwords.
"Harry, move over!" Ron said. "Beatlus Arcanus!" The wall opened to reveal the slytherin common room. They searched the place. They went to the girl dormitories. Harry and Ron pushed in.
"You guys really don't care do you? Why are you in here?" Carlie asked, pulling her sheets up around her.
"Where's Malfoy?they asked. she shrugged.
They looked for Ginny, and found her under Harry's invisibility cloak in the boy's dorms.
"So thats where it went." Harry muttered. They untied Ginny and Ran to the door. The female kidnapper snuck up on them.
"Petrificus Totalus!" She yelled. Ron, Harry, and Ginny froze and fell.
"Ron, Ron, Ron. I thought I thought you better. What happened?" Hermione said.
"What the hell?" Ron said.
"You boys wouldn't be able to tell who was your friend and who was against you if it wasn't for me helping you," She turned to them.
"Hermione, we just wanted to scare them, what are you doing?" Malfoy said.
"Just showing them how much they'd need me if I wan't on their side all the time," she said. Malfoy backed out, and Hermione went to cast a spell, but instead of unfreezing them, she knocked them out, and had their memories modified of the whole conflict.
During dinner, Harry noticed the closer he sat to Ginny, the more anoyed Cho Chang was. After dinner, Harry asked her why she was so anoyed.
"Well, Harry, I like you." She kissed him. Harry was shocked.
"W- wait. I thought you hated me." He stuttered. She eyed him, and tried to kiss him again. He dodged the kiss, and even though he felt that tug he felt back at the Yule Ball last year, he walked away.
In the morning, Harry ran to Charms. Harry ran through the doors right before the class began. Hermione saved him a seat, and they began playing Wizards Chess. About half way through the class, Proffesor Flitwick came out from behind his desk. He was so happy nothing has happened. Ron and Carlie were practicing the banishing and summoning Charms when suddenly--
"Proffesor! I'm so Sorry! I didn't know that would happen!"Carlie was bent over Proffesor Flitwick, or what was supposed to be him. He looked like a cross between a big black dog and a sewer rat. Flitwick was furious. He charged Carlie, but she stuck out her wand and banished him right through the window. the whole class lost their control and were laughing so loudly that Proffesor McGonagall burst through the door to see what was going on.
"What has happened here to make you all so loud and rude enough to interupt my class?" She yelled. They all pointed out the window, and when she went and looked out, Flitwick bounded through the window, straight into her lap, knocking her to the floor. She screamed, got up, and fixed him up to the normally short person he used to be.
"Thank you. Menerva. I'll take it from here." They nodded and she left. The class straightened up, and behaved for the rest of the class. As they were dismissed, Ron, Harry, and Carlie were having fun at what they should have called him.
"Hermione, whats wrong?"Harry asked.
She snapped out of a daze, and said,"Well, the year is almost over."
She paused,and almost blurted something out but instead, she started on how Wizards Chess is useless. She hoped no one knew her feeling for-
"Hermione, where are you going? Potions is this way." Ron said. She turned back, and sat two rows directly behind Malfoy. She put her caldron and book in a position that if she turned her head slightly to the left, she could see Malfoy. Ron sat between Carlie and Harry.
"Um, Hermione, What are staring at?You have that same look when you heard we had Gilderhart for Defence Against the Dark Arts." Harry said. He followed his glance to she who it was, but she looked away too fast. Harry was confused, again, about why Hermione is acting so stange. She won't let Ron even hug her any more.
"Hermioe, you feeling ok?"Harry asked.
"Yeah, yeah- I'm good. Just-um-tired, yeah, tired" She stuttered, as if she was withholding information from them. As the class started making potions, Hermione didn't start hers until Ron waved his hand infront of her eyes. She wouldn't focus all period.
"Um, Ron, Harry, I need to talk to you guys. Carlie, I think it might be better if you stayed out of this. Sorry." She said on the way to lunch. They left to Murtles Bathroom, and locked the door.
"What's wrong, Hermione? Got your period?" Ron said, a bit joking at the end.
"'Ew, Ron! No! Perv, I wouldn't pull you BOTH aside for THAT!" She yelled. Murtle peeked around the corner.
"Well I don't see the reason to be all private other than you have some girl thing going on," Ron defended himself. Hermione glared at him.
"Sorry to dissapoint you Ron, but it's not a girl thing. Well, kind of. It's-"
"Can we just get to it?" Harry asked, watching Murtle trying to sneak closer to him across the bathroom while the two fought.
"Oh, Sorry, Harry. I wanted to say, um, well- I like Malfoy and need you to not fight for about a week." she blurted out quickly.
