I know I'm not really describing much here, but I look at Ginny as one of those people who
pay attention to what she cares about, not just anything. Neville and Ginny have become very close since Harry left.
So here it is not much, next chapter is back to the battleing.
Tell me what ya' think.


Ginny Weasley woke up in her four poster bed; she looked around to see all her fellow Gryffindor's still asleep. Ginny decided to go down to the common room.

There stood no one in the common room; Ginny took this time alone to set by the fire and think about all that had happened in the last few days. Ginny had been back in Hogwarts for two days. She had not heard from Ron or Harry; Hermione had written to her though, and Ginny replied with a letter attached for Harry.

Ginny stood there thinking about all that had happened in the last year.

Dumbledore had died, making Professor McGonagall the new headmistress, Draco had killed himself in attempt to murder her, Bill and Fleur had gotten married, Angelina and Fred got engaged, Harry got with Ginny, he then broke up with her and got back together.

'You'd think after six years everything wouldn't feel the same. I'm setting here and it feels the same as it did six years ago'

Ginny heard one of the doors to dormitories open, and foot steps slumping downs the stairs leading from the boys dormitory.

"What are you doing up this early Gin?" Her good friend Neville Longbottom asked.

He stood there groggy looking. He was standing in his red satin pajamas and his red slippers.

Ginny smiled at him "Couldn't sleep" She whispered. Neville looked at her confused.

"Why are we whispering?" He asked in a whisper, a grin on his face.

Ginny smiled wider, she had been holding back tears from the thoughts of Harry.

"I don't know Mr. Longbottom" Whispered Ginny with a laugh. Neville walked to the couch and sat next to her, Ginny placed her head on his shoulder. Neville put his head on top of hers.

"You were thinking about him weren't you?" Neville sighed.

"Yeah" Replied Ginny shakily. "Just a little" she made a small laugh, Neville chuckled.

"You're going to go mad thinking about him, Gin"

"M-maybe I want to" She laughed. Neville took his head from hers and looked down at her.

"Gin, I love you, you're like the little sister I never had" Neville sighed.

'That's cute except the fact that we went on a date once… Ew'

"I know what you're thinking, okay but we're no longer like that" Laughed Neville. "The thing is Ginny, I care for you loads. I know Harry, I know you love him, but I think you need to give it a break on thinking about him, you haven't had a proper sleep in what is it –a month?"

Ginny felt a little hurt by this, she had slept, once. "I sleep fine thank you"

"One good nights rest- hugging a letter Harry sent you- is not considered 'fine'"

Ginny couldn't retort because Neville Longbottom was right, she is not fine.

"Well?"

"Well, you're right so what?"

"So, I want you to give it a break" Sighed Neville. "Gin, I- we don't know what's going to happen, I just don't- I don't want to see you- heartbroken again"

Ginny smiled at her friend. "I'll be fine Neville, but thanks for the concern" She kissed him on the cheek.

Neville blushed and smiled at her. "Like I said you're my little sister"

Ginny laughed. "Except that I have flaming red hair"

"That and we have no actual blood related connection"

"Yes, that too" Ginny stood up from the couch, "I'm going to get dressed, you do the same and meet me in the Great Hall for breakfast"

Neville nodded "Eh, alright" Ginny skipped off to her dorm to get dressed.

--

Ginny had gotten dressed and walked out of the portrait hole to find one Neville Lonbottom waiting for her. "Why were you waiting?"

"Oh" He said shocked. "I didn't want you to walk alone"

Ginny shrugged. "Alright"

She took Neville's arm and led him to the Great Hall.

They walked into the Great Hall to see a nearly empty Gryffindor table.

Ginny took a seat at the end, Neville sat across from her. The only others at the table were Lavender Brown and a few first years.

"Lavender, how are you?" Ginny asked looking at a weary Lavender Brown.

Lavender smiled "I-I'm fine Ginny, thanks for asking" She replied.

Ginny nodded turning her attention back to Neville. Neville smiled at her, he obviously had something to tell her when they had more privacy.

They ate their breakfast and it was off to Defense against the Dark Arts for Ginny, Neville made his way to his potions lesson, with Slughorn who decided to partake in another year at Hogwarts.

"Good evening class" Said the new teacher, Professor Malmit.

He had white hair that was down to his shoulders, olive skin, a very tall man around six foot tall, he looked about sixty years old, but he assured the class he was younger than that. He had grey eyes that looked like you could stare into them and get lost into another world completely. His mood was casual.

"Today, we teach you what you didn't learn from the crackpot Snape" He laughed. "Not to mention the other six you've had"

The rest of the class (except the Slytherins) laughed with him.

"Now, today we'll be covering unforgivable curses."

The class murmured in excitement. Professor Malmit smiled.

"No, I will not let you test them on each other" He said jokingly.

Many people in the crowd groaned, others laughed.

"So let's get some answers" Said the Professor. "Ah Mrs. Weasley can you tell me the names of the curses?"

Ginny nodded biting her lip; she knew them oh to well by now. "Crucio: The torture curse. Imperious: The trance- er- curse? And Avada Kedavra: The killing curse"

Professor Malmit nodded. "Very good Mrs. Weasley, five points to Gryffindor!"

Ginny smiled, as the Gryffindor's cheered.

Professor explained the curses and used two of them on a rat, which was still living when they finished their lesson.

Ginny sat outside of the dungeons entrance waiting for Neville. He appeared with a crowd of Gryffindors laughing. "Hey Gin"

"Hey Neville" She smiled as he put his arm around her waist. "How was DADA?"

"Same as always" She sighed.

"So it made you think of Harry?" Neville asked with a laugh.

"No" Ginny stated clearly. "You're the one who's bringing Harry up"

Neville nodded "Sorry, sorry forgive me"

"I will" Ginny seen Luna walking with some of her Ravenclaw friends.

"Hey Lovegood" Call Ginny making Luna's head turn. She waved to her friends and walked over to Neville and Ginny.

"Hey Longbottom, Weasley" She said mockingly. She smiled as she tucked some of her hair behind her ear.

"Who were those people?" Asked Neville mocked hurt. "Have you- left us for new friends?"

Luna laughed. "Yes, I have betray you- actually their just some girls from my house who happen to be obsessed with Harry"

Ginny smiled weakly. "Aren't we all these day" She laughed.

Luna nodded, and then shook her head. "Not me" she said quickly laughing.

"Well I remember you two went on a date-"Luna pinched Neville.

"It was a friend thing" She said with a smile.

"I really don't care Luna, I trust you more than any other girl with Harry, well besides Hermione" Laughed Ginny. "You don't need to pinch Neville"

Neville nodded. "This is true, I have privileges now!"

"Oh Neville, my boyfriend or not, I'll pinch you all I want" Laughed Luna.

Ginny shrugged. "I can't help you there"

Neville just rolled his eyes. "How did I end up with you two?"

"Well you found yourself madly in love with me after Bill and Fleur's wedding, and you fancied Ginny in your fourth year" Replied Luna.

"Oh right" Sighed Neville. He put his other arm around Luna. "Come on you two, I'm starved"

Ginny smiled at him, he sounded just like Ron, which brought so much fear into Ginny's heart.

"Neville, you're always starved" exclaimed Luna.

"Not true, sometimes I'm just hungry" Neville corrected her.

Luna smiled at him, "You're a nitwit, but you're my nitwit" Neville nodded furiously.

'I really miss him, why did he have to be the chosen one?'

They walked back into the Great Hall, the day continued just as normal as any other, but how long would this last?
