It was still near morning but Ginny still tried to go to sleep, but it was still useless. She was thinking a million things at once. She thought she was going to go crazy.
If I didn't tell him I liked him; I wouldn't be here right now. I would be out with the others having fun. But no, Stupid ol' Ginny had to tell him. Brillant.
Ginny quickly wiped away her tears as she heard the door creaked open. She sighed. It was Hermione. It wasn't like it was her fault; but Ginny couldn't help but feel a bit anger by telling Harry that. She was always the smartest out of the four; so why couldn't she see that she liked Harry?
"Hey Ginny." she said happily, as she sat on the corner of the bed. Hermione noticed her eyes were red and puffy. Before Ginny could greet her; Hermione was already worried. "Ginny, why are you crying?" she asked.
Ginny sighed once more. "Well Hell, since the whole schools going to know it; why don't I just tell you." Ginny looked at Hermione. "Well, in case you didn't notice, I like Harry." Hermione put her hands over her mouth like it was really shocking news to her. Ginny rolled her eyes; but Hermione didn't seen to notice. "Does he know?" she asked. "Just told him." Ginny immediately answered. Hermione embraced Ginny with a tight hug. "I'm sorry." she said. Ginny forced herself not to cry; as she was already trying to stop.
Hermione let go of her, and asked "Well..Are you going to come down for breakfast? That was the main reason why I came here." Ginny yawned. "I guess." she said, because she knew she couldn't run away from her fears forever; and it was better to see Harry now then later. Maybe he already forgot about it.
Hermione smiled at Ginny's answer. She loved talking to Ginny, and that was usually who she talked to anyways; since Ron was always occupied with food in his mouth.
Ginny got off of her bed and checked herself. She didn't need to change, since she already did earlier; but her hair was a complete disaster. "Hermione, do you have a brush I can use?" she asked, still looking into the mirror. "Oh yes." she said. "Its downstairs near the fire." Ginny gave her a little 'thanks' and ran off downstairs to get it.
Hermione waited until the door was completly closed. She looked around the room quickly once more, making sure no one was there. She quickly got up and went near Ginny's pillow. Ever since she came in here and saw Ginny crying, she noticed a strange medium sized bump in the pillow; and she was quite curious. She grabbed underneath the pillow case and found a hardcover light red notebook. On the front it said:
Property of Ginny Weasley.
DO NOT OPEN.
Hermione definatly knew it was her handwriting; since hers was always so neat and big. But then Hermione paniced. Ginny could come back through that door any second. She knew she had no time to read it. She quickly put in into her bag that she always brings.
"Sorry Ginny." she mumbled as she went back to her original place she was sitting, waiting any moment to see a red-head girl come in. Hermione quickly felt much remorse after she just did, but Hell if she was going to put it back now. Ginny never told her anything anymore, and maybe this book is a way to actually catch up with her.
Suddenly all of her thoughts stopped when she saw the door quickly get opened.
"You ready?" Ginny asked. She looked a little better than before; but her face was still red as her hair. "Oh-- Yeah." Hermione answered, getting up from her bed and going down to the Great Hall with her, holding on tightly to her bag to her waist so Ginny wouldn't see anything.
They reached the Great Hall and they took a seat in the Gryffindor table. Ginny finally saw Harry; who was only a few seats across from her. She noticed how he was looking anywhere but her; which made her more upset; but then she also noticed that he wasn't looking at Cho either, which was making Cho frustrated. Ginny couldn't help but chuckle at that. She looked at Cho once more, and unfortunatly; she was looking at her as well. Cho gave Ginny a dirty look. She was quite surprised Cho was like that; but she didn't really care.
"Ginny?" Hermione asked for the third time. "Whuh?" she said, she wasn't paying attention to her. "I'm going to leave; I wanna study for Potions. You wanna come?" Hermione asked. Ginny shook her head. She didn't eat much, so she thought she should of done so. Hermione gave a quick goodbye to Ginny and Harry and gave a little kiss to Ron before leaving. Ginny rolled her eyes, and so did Harry surprisingly.
Finally; Ginny saw Harry looking at her, but then quickly looked away. He seemed to be a little upset, or he was regretting that he left.
"Ginny, whats wrong?" Ron whispered to Ginny as he noticed the puffyness in her face. She looked at her brother. "I'll tell you when we get out." she said looking at Harry.

Hermione quickly ran outside to the Outside Grounds and sat on an empty bench. She opened her bag and searched for the light red notebook that belonged to her friend Ginny.
She took a deep breathe before opening it. She opened to the first page. Ginny didn't write much, but it was too much for Hermione, but she kept reading till she was at the last page. She felt like a criminal; she felt as if she robbed a bank and stole loads of cash. She was panicing again, she didn't know what to do.
Finally; she made a suggestion.
"I've got to tell Harry." she said to herself as shoved the book into her bag and left once more.

"You WHAT?!" Ron said in disbelief; as Ginny just told him why she was so quiet at the Great Hall.
"He knew!" Ginny repeated herself for the tenth time; but Ron wouldn't listen to that.
"Oh Ginny." Ron said. "And he just left you? Like right there?"
"I said that for the fifth time." Ginny said getting quite irritated by Ron.
"Doesn't seem like him." Ron said. Ginny definatly agreed with him on that. It was nothing like him at all.
Ginny and Ron were in silence for a few more moments until Ginny just left. She went upstairs to the girls dorm, to get the only thing that she liked anymore, her light red notebook.
