Don't give up hope

Ok so I wasn't going to write anymore chapters to this story, but I have changed my mind lol. Hope you like this part.

Chapter 2

Ginny tried her hardest to forget about the talk that she'd had with Hermione in the common, but the more she tried to disregard her words, the more she seemed to dwell on them. She had sat through her potion lesson not paying any attention to Slughorn and had basically just been thinking of all the possibilities of Hermione's words and whether or not there was any truth to them. She was now in charms and was recalling the moment when Harry had past her in the corridor on the way to charms. He had walked past in conversation with Ron, but she had seen him glance at her they had walked past each other, and then she was saw he had actually blush a little when she smiled at him. But I didn't mean anything right?

'Ginny are you listening?' said a high pitched voice 'Can you please answer the question?'

Ginny nearly jumped out of her seat, she had been so rapped up in her thoughts of Harry she had forgotten to listen to Professor Flitwick who always had an annoying habit of picking on people when they were daydreaming.

'No sorry professor' she replied a little embarrassed, he looked at her a little disappointedly before carrying on with the lesson. For the rest of the lesson she decided to pay attention.

Later that day after Quidditch practice she and Harry were walking back to the castle. Just like Hermione said he always did, she hadn't thought much of it before, but after the talk this morning she couldn't help but wonder if it was because he liked her in a way more than just being friends, after all he had even gone on without Ron…

'I know' Harry was saying about their discussion on the players in the team 'Peakes and Coote and have both really become two very good beaters. Not quite up to your brothers standards, but still certainly the best replacements possible.'

Suddenly a first year ran up to Harry and Ginny.

'Excuse me, but I have a letter from Professor Slughorn.'

Both Ginny and Harry groaned, smiling at one another slightly, they both new what this meant.

'Thanks' she heard Harry mumble as the little first year ran away back through the castle.

Ginny tore open the invitation and read:

Ginny,

Thought you might like to come to the party I am having tomorrow. You may remember the one at Christmas went particularly well, and I thought it would be nice to have a repeat of that tomorrow.

I would like you all to bring someone else with you.

Hope to see you there.

Sincerely, Professor H.E.F. Slughorn

(The slug club)

Ginny thought about making a joke about it when…

'Erm, Ginny would you like to go with me to the party?' Harry asked her seeming a little embarrassed. Ginny couldn't believe her ears, Hermione was right after all - 'As friends I mean of course' He added a little reluctantly.

Ginny's heart sunk a little. Told you Hermione, he only likes me as a friend she thought to herself - after all last time he had gone with Luna and she was certain he didn't like her in that way. Still…

'Oh yes sure, that would be fun Harry'

'Ok great' Harry answered as they made their way into the common room. 'See you there!'

Thanks for reading. Review please :) Will probs post another chapter soon.
