Too Far Gone
Chapter 5: Closure
Harry and Ron went back to their rooms to let the girls rest. Once madam Pomfrey cleared away all of her things she left instructions with Hermione and with a crack she was gone. Alone for the first time Ginny shifted awkwardly in the bed. She was dreading the conversation she knew was coming. Hermione was also a bit on edge, she still loved Ginny but those images were ghastly. How could her sweet Ginny think those terrible things about her? Still, they used the same happy memory; madam Pomfrey said it was a very race occurrence that told Hermione that everything was going to be ok.
That night when Hermione crawled into bed and put her arm around Ginny the girl stiffened up. Hermione looked at her confused. Rolled over and cried herself to sleep.
"It's been like this for two days" Hermione told Harry "she won't talk to me she barely looks at me"
"Have you asked her what's wrong?"
"Yes, she says nothing. I don't know what to do"
"You need to force her to tell you what's wrong" said Harry
"Ginny is not the person you force into things and you know that" said Hermione. Ginny walked into the room and looked at them she turned and walked out, Hermione and Harry ran after her
"Gin." Hermione grabbed her
"Yeah?"
"Talk to me?" Hermione asked
"About what?…lets see…lets discuss how I specifically asked that you not be exposed to my…memory and the 'chosen' one over here takes it upon himself to go spelunking in my head. Lets start with that." Ginny said with venom in her voice.
"We were supposed to let you die?" said Harry
"I wasn't dead Harry"
"Oh no you looked great…lying on the bed while Hermione moved you and fed you and made sure you were warm and comfortable. Why are you so ungrateful?" Harry shot back
"I thought I could trust you with that. You told the one person I didn't want to know"
"Harry didn't tell me right away….it was only a last resort" said Hermione
Ginny shoots Harry a look and storms off. Harry looks a Hermione and she runs after Ginny.
By the time Hermione caught up with her she was in the room packing with Jinx squawking at her from the headboard.
"Where are you going?" Hermione's eyes betrayed her stern voice
"I don't know yet…but I just…" Ginny stops when she feels Hermione's arms around her
"I don't want you to leave, we've spent all this time finding each other now your just gonna leave me? Why? Before I leave you first?" Ginny glares at her
"That's not fair. You've been in my head…you have an unfair advantage"
"Ginny I have no intentions on leaving you…if being in your head has taught me anything it's that I'm meant to be with you." Hermione said softly "Now can you please tell me why you are acting like this?"
"It's….I'm…embarrassed" Ginny spoke softly
"Of what I saw? Oh Ginny I know that wasn't real. Those were your fears and your insecurities. And a lot of them center around me….it's normal"
"So when I say you're running around in my head…?" Ginny asked with a smirk
"I'll believe you." Hermione smiled "and you have to believe me when I tell you that you can tell me anything."
"Like killing Malfoy?"
Hermione tries to sound calming
"Ginny, I saw what you did and I still love you…but if you had brought Malfoy in and told them he used the Imperius Curse on me they would have given him to the Dementors. He's better off dead. Just don't make a habit of it"
"Oh I don't plan on it" Ginny said quickly "I just didn't want you to leave me. I didn't want to loose the closeness"
"Well after this little adventure I don't think we could be any closer…I mean the same memory, the odds are crazy." Hermione laughed
"Yeah I was shocked myself. I promise to always be open with you."
"I promise not to judge you. I must confess I was scared to death in there. I didn't think you were gonna save me."
"I'll always save you, I can't live without you. But I am curious"
"About what?"
"What's the inside of your head look like?" Ginny smiles
"Lets hope you don't have to find out the hard way…oh by the way I did manage to check out a few other memories and a few very intriguing…fantasies" Hermione smiles and Ginny turns as red as her hair.
"I'm sorry, I can explain those…"
"Oh I don't want you to explain them….i want to do them." Hermione wraps her arms around Ginny and kisses her passionately
"Which one?" Ginny asks breathlessly
"All of them." Replies Hermione with a wicked grin
"I love you." Says Ginny with her own wicked grin
"I love you too" sighs Hermione
They fall into a deep kiss onto the bed and Jinx flies out of the room
There she goes there
she goes again
racing through my brain
And I just can't contain
This feeling that remains
there she goes there she goes again
pulsing through
my veins
And I just can't
contain
this feeling that remains
there she goes there she
goes again
racing through my brain
And I just can't
contain
this feeling that remains
There she goes there
she goes again
She calls my name, pulls my train
No one else
could heal my pain
and I just can't contain
This feeling that remains
there she goes there she goes again
chasing down my
lane
And I just can't contain
This feeling that remains
there she goes
there she goes
there she goes
There She Goes by Sixpence None the Richer
