Pick her up and pretend you're going to throw her in the pool, she'll scream and fight, but inside she's secretly loving it.
School's getting closer to being over for another year. I should be starting to study for end of year exams right now, but it's incredibly nice out. A perfect reason to put it off. Even a good number of the 5th and 7th years are foregoing studying for some 'fun in the sun'. I notice amongst those 5th years is Ginny. We've become better friends over the past few months. Help each other study, eat lunch together sometimes, even spent a Hogsmeade trip together, with our other friends of course.
She's sitting nearby the lake in shorts and a tank top, watching all her friends goof around in the shallow part of the water. Why not go have a bit of fun with her?
I get up, brushing my shorts off, and tell Seamus I'll be back. I silently make my way towards her. I sneak up behind her, careful not to make a sound and get her attention. Just before she turns her head the other way a bit, I scoop her up over my shoulder so she's hanging upside down.
She starts to holler and scream. Pleading me to let her down. When that doesn't work she resorts to begging her friends for help. Unfortunately for her, they're all laughing too much to help. I start to stalk towards the water, a mischievous grin on my face, but she can't see that. She screams even more. It'd put her down if I couldn't her the laughter in her voice. It's just too bad she couldn't cover it up. Many people are watching in amusement by now.
Once I get so I'm standing only ankle deep in the lake I readjust my grip. I flip her down quite suddenly, making her scream even louder. Just when she's about to get wet, however, I tighten my hold and pull her back up to my chest, laughing madly.
When I put her down and I instantly turn to run away. She gives chases. We're making a fabulous show for anyone outside today. I run towards the tree where I left Seamus and grab my shirt on the way by. Turning to see where she is, I throw my shirt at her so it covers her face, allowing me more of a lead.
The sound that escapes her when it hits its target is the most adorable thing I've ever heard. I just continure to run, still laughing.
"You'll never see this shirt again Thomas! Anything you throw at me becomes mine, so watch it!" she hollers.
"Yeah, yeah! You just want a piece of me, for when you go to sleep at night," I shout back. I turn in time to catch her cheeks redden.
I slow my running down; interested in what she'll do when she catches me. I was not, however, expecting to feel her body slam mine to the ground. I turn in time to land on my back, avoiding injury. I grin like a fool when I see the position this landed us in.
"If you wanted to be close to me love, all you had to do was ask," I tease her with a wink, again causing the blush I seem to provoke so often.
"Oh sod off. I had to stop you some how." She replies.
"Yes and I can see how the only logical way would be to pin me to the ground." I smirk.
