Hi I'M BACK!!!!!!!

Finally finished exams, phew! Twas a loooooooong week. I think I did alright but I'm sure I failed a couple not that I mind too much! I'm much too tired to!

Thanks to all of you who reviewed I adore you! Well on with the story!!

Okay.

Hermione Granger and Lavender Brown BOTH like Ron.

Ron!

Ron Weasley!!

Ronald Billius Weasley!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I mean what the hell? I've heard other girls talk about my brother in a way that really should be illegal. Even BECKS has and that is plain...

DISTURBING!!! DISGUSTING!!! HIDEOUS!!!! UNSPEAKABLE!!!! YOU NAME IT THAT'S IT!!!!!!!!!

MY BROTHER!! And it involved his back, well a tad further down but still!!

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!

I yelled at her for an hour about 'preserving my sanity and not to send me to a mental institution'. I think she got the message after that.

At least I hope she did.

Harry nudges me and points over at Ron. I should still be mad at him.

Pulling... whatever the hell that was on me. I glare at him and he grins.

'It was a dare okay? I'm sorry really.'

He looks at me whilst I stare intently at the scene ahead of me. Do I believe him? I don't know!!!! I just can't see it! Usually I can read him but now... Nope not a clue. Fuckingnora!!

'Firecracker?' Ah crap. The puppy dog eyes... grrrrr...

'FINE! But you have to help me for the next two weeks with WHATEVER I want!! Alright??' Damn him and his utter sweetness wrapped under the layers of heroism and generosity and hotness.

I hate being me.

It sucks ROYALLY!!!! Despite what you have been lead to believe.

Being friends with Harry Potter is more often than not a load of trouble.

Back to the public catfight and whatnot. Ron is looking bewildered between the pair. Lavender sobs and runs off up towards the girls dorm. Hermione grins triumphantly at me and I punch the air.

That bitch had it coming.

Ron blinks some more. Oh I love my brother dearly but he can be so dim-witted.

'Hermione? Are you okay?' He asks stopping near her and peering into her face. Hermione blushes slightly.

(Awwwww they are too cute yet incredibly annoying. Maybe if we stuck 'He-Who-Is -Slytherins-Bitch in with them minus his wand and chained him to wall he'd combust! You never know.)

'I'm fine Ron. Thank you. Lavender was just being absolutely infuriating.' Ron frowns.

'Isn't that my job?'

'You can't be infuriating the whole time Ron. You can be quite nice from time to time.'

Say what? Did Hermione just? His face totally brightens up. Sweet. But still Hermione actually complimented Ron.

Did I see a pig fly?

But she did.

She ACTUALLY did. I know freaking unbelievable!!

Harry is staring confusedly at them both. I can see why.

'Screw this confusion I'm going to class.' I grab my bag and wave goodbye as I head through the Portrait hole. Colin and Becks sprint after me.

'HEY!!!'

'Morning!' I greet the panting pair.

'Did you talk to Harry?' Becks asks whilst Colin catches his breath.

'Yeah, as punishment he has to do EVERYTHING I say for the next two weeks!! I'm great!!'

'Everything?' Colin asks slyly arching an eyebrow. When did he learn how to do that?

'Mind out of the gutter people we have hmmmm Oh! Potions so c'mon!!' I walk down the corridor with Becks gabbling about her potions essay. (I copied mine off an old one of Harrys. I.E. mostly Hermione but she wouldn't give me hers. Meanie.)

Colin is digging in his bag for something. 'What cha looking for?' We stroll into the dungeons and some of the Slytherins hiss at us but I just stick my tongue out and bop to my stool next to Luna.

Yeah I know that makes no sense right? Well Luna has an interesting timetable so Flitwick organise with Slughorn so that she has most classes with us.

'Hey!' I say cheerily.

'Why are you so happy I thought you hated Mondays? Probably the fish fairies, they cause all sorts of odd phobias.' She is right about former not so much the latter. It's one of the things I hate most let's see I think I have a list somewhere...

And I know what you're thinking 'Oh Merlin... another one of those lists...'

But mine is FABTASTIC!!!!

The Things that I hate most in the screwed up world I live in.

1 He-Who-Is-Not-Worth-The-Effort-Of-These-Kickass- Nicknames.

2. Slytherins.

3. Harrys Utterly Irresistible puppy dog eyes. They are enough to send any girl INSANE. Or into a fit of swooning but luckily I am not the swooning type. Thank you very much.

4. Crummy weather on quidditch matches.

5. Percy for being such a SELFISH MINISTRY WHORING BASTARD!!

And I'll leave it at that.

Oh crap Slughorn is talking...

Well his moustache is. Man he really does look like a walrus.

Scary.

How can he have so much hair on his face yet not on his head?

Weird. Almost as weird as Ron becoming a girl magnet.

I said ALMOST but not quite.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

'A PARTY??????'

'Yeah Red, you are soooo lucky. I've heard that LOADS of really famous people are going!!'

'Blaaaaaaaaack!!!! IT'S A PARTY!!! With SLUGHORN!! THE oh Merlin!! 'The Slug Club!!' GAH!!'

She just doesn't get it!!!! Walking down the corridor after Double potions. This is NOT a fun conversation.

'Come on!!!! You already missed the CAPTAIN of THE Holyhead Harpies!!! The team YOU want to join when you finish!!!' Becks stop arguing!!!

'But I have to hang with SLYTHERINS!!!! SLYTHERINS!!!!! No amount of famous people could make up for that!!!'

'She's got a point there, Becks.' Thank you COLIN! I love him I really do.

In the platonic sort of way naturally.

'Yeah well YOU got an invitation!' Becks states accusingly poking him in the chest. Ahhh poor baby she's jealous!!

'You can have mine if you want.' I offer glad to get rid of it but she's not listening. And here I was being all gracious.

Teehee!! I used be jealous of her. She was the spunky hell-cat who for some reason decided to be my friend and then this was when I was the girl who was too shy to speak to hardly anyone.

Whose fault was that now? Oh yeah mine. Me and my stupid heart!!

But I digress!

LOOK AT ME NOW WORLD!!!

'Since it's so important to you. Come with me.' Say WHAT???

Did Colin just ask Becks OUT?!?!???

Colin.

And Becks?

Can't say it hasn't popped into my head but this is weird IN REALITY!!! And here was me thinking it was just a strange idea of mine!! Happens a LOT!!

'I'd love to Colin!!!' Becks bounces over and hugs him her black hair unceremoniously whacking me in the face.

Colin beams at me from somewhere in Becks hair. At least I think he does. I hum to myself absentmindedly. Then I hear singing. Wonderfully singing!!!

LUNA!!!! (Wasn't really wonderful singing but to avoid the awkwardness it was FABULAS!

I run and hug her. 'HI!!!' I love her!

'Nargles.' She states knowingly over at the two who have FINALLY parted.

'Yes, Nargles. Right.' I say used to her oddness. I'm odd too so it all works.

'Actually it could be Nargles.' I say looking towards the Entrance as The Golden Trio enter.

Hehe! Golden Trio. Hermione is in the middle and is blushing slightly, Ron is walking along trying to act coolly but keeps glancing at Hermione wonderingly and Harry... well Harry looks like he's caught between exasperation and embarrassment and sheer relief.

What an odd mix.

Luna skips down towards them. Her earring jangling insanely. I got her to wear her festive bells instead of the radishes, which are great at warding off plimpies or something along those lines...

'Nargles are causing all sorts of trouble. Ronald, Hermione, and Harry you should be careful.'

'Luna you old nut!!!' Becks jumps behinds her and kisses her cheek.

'Ahhh Becks my favourite whacko!' I hug her waist grinning up at her.

'GIN!!! The craziest of all the redheads!!!!' Colin hugs my legs.

We all look up. Hermione is wearing her 'McGonagall' expression. Ron, used to our crazed antics looks bored and Harry is bright red trying not to laugh.

'And what do you think you are up to?' Oh crapamoli!

We turn our heads with the exception of Luna who can't and see Snape standing there looking like the overgrown bat he is. Ever hear of shampoo mate?

Probably not.

Gross!

'Ammmmmm...' We all look at each other letting go and standing up.

Saved by the BANG!

Literally.

We all look around bewilderedly. Suddenly a high pitched squeal hits our ears and Lavender Brown comes running down the stairs.

Well I think it's Lavender.

It resembles her I guess...

Well same blonde hair but her face is kinda ammmmmm unusual would be the best word. One grey eye (not hers) and one blue (hers) her nose is like a mushroom. You know the tiny scrunched up ones that are all lumpy and gross and her mouth is well bright yellow.

Y'heard me!!

Yellow.

Luminescent yellow.

That is absolutely disgusting!

But hilarious!!!

She splutters at Snape who is glaring at her with all his big winged bat greasiness. The rest of us being the smart intelligent people that we are use to the time to slink away. The trio to the dungeons for potions the rest of us for Care of Magical Creatures. I burst out laughing as soon as we hit the rather cold wind outside.

Colin and Becks just shake their heads and Luna just looks dreamily off into space. I giggle to myself as we trench down the path. Ground is really hard... Fast kick off but weather now means it's going to be cold...

Brrrrrrrrrrrr!!! I hate playing when it's cold!!!

Maybe Hermione will bring us down some Hot Chocolate like she did at Saturdays practice!!!!

She better!!!!

Hagrid greets us manically from his hut. I wave and smile up at him.

'Heya Ginny!'

'Hi Hagrid!! What we be doing today?' It should be interesting. As he signals the rest of class to follow him into the forest. The Forest? Like woah!!! Cool!! I feel something touch my face; I look up and see snowflakes begin to fall.

'YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!' Both myself and Becks yell out. 'It's CHRISTMAS!!!!!!'

Hagrid turns and smiles but tell us to shush.

'Yer goin' to scare 'em. Shhhhhh!' We both smile apologetically. And we enter a clearing. Hagrid enters a clearing and heaves down the odd package I just noticed he was carrying. We look at each other in bafflement. He opens the bag up and takes out a hunk of meat.

Raw bleeding meat.

Bleh!!

But I'm sure whatever creature it's for finds it scrumptious. I'm just glad I'm me and not the creature. Well if it meant eating, well, that.

'What are we doing Hagrid? Wouldn't we be safer back near the castle?' Becks says nervously. Last year Umbitch made her do detention out here with Filch she slipped cracked three ribs broke her arm and leg and got stabbed by some odd plant. So in fairness she's allowed to be slightly unsettled by this.

She was in the Hospital Wing for AGES. And she was majorly pissed that she couldn't help fight at the Ministry last year. Colin was with her cause I ordered him to just in case the Slytherins tried anything.

'Ye'll see, or maybe not' He winks and then one of the girls from Ravenclaw shudders and moves back. Mary I think her name is. 'I felt something move near me!!' She squeaks. I look over and see a huge skeletal horse. Luna pets one near her. The horse thing looks like it has never eaten, with huge scaly wings. Oh the Threstals!!!

The ones we flew to London last year!! I don't remember seeing them with the carriages... Harry told me they pull them.

Well then again I wasn't exactly paying attention. I was trying to prevent Ron from attack Malfoy or something along those lines. Or panicking about Harry. Not too sure. One snuffs at my shoulder whilst three more begin to eat the hunk of meat.

'Anyone know what they are?' Hargid asks the class. I raise my hand.

'Threastals.' Hargid nods happily he asks how many of us can see them.

Only Luna and I raise our hands. 'Now either do ye know why?' Luna speaks in her usual far away drifty voice.

'One those who have seen death can see Threastals.'

Death...

-------------------------FLASHBACK!----------------

I watch from the sidelines the only one left with the ability to watched, Luna is unconscious, so's Hermione and Ron... well it sounds like he's high to be honest. I watch as Lupin, Harry and Sirius and loads of other Order fighters battle it out. I try to get up but my ankle won't let me.

Sirius and Bellatrix LeStrange are duelling their hardest, Sirius with the slightest upper hand. But suddenly it stops. Everything seems to swirl down and stop I see Sirius laughing at Bellatrix and Bellatrixs mouth moving.

And I know.

Goodbye Sirius Black.

Is the thought that echoes through my head has I see him fall through the veil within the arch almost gracefully. For an instant I think I spy a flash of messy black hair and vibrant red. Then all I hear is Harrys pain filled yelling in my ears and it all fades to black.

------------------------ END FLASH BACK!!----------------

I blink and watch as everyone takes down notes. I pretend to scribble some down but I can't concentrate. I grab my bag as soon as Hagrid dismisses us and run back to school for lunch.

Then I'm stopped. Hermione.

'Hi Ginny!!! I need a huge favour!! Wait are you alright?' She asks looking at my face. Becks and Colin come up behind me. Colin puts a hand on my shoulder and Becks an arms round my waist.

'You alright Red?' They ask.

'I'm fine I just... after seeing the Threastral... memories came back that I'd rather forget.'

'You can see Threastals since when?' The three ask in wonderment.

'Since the Ministry I guess.' I mutter and move towards the Great Hall. I muster a smile and turn to Hermione. 'What's the favour?' Shake it off Gin Shake it OFF!! Then I look at Hermione, expectantly.

She blushes, when I mean blushes I mean BLUSHES! Weasley tomato red 'ere!!

Anyone wanna fry an egg?

'Iasked-hmhmhmhmhhhmmhmhmm.'

I blink as we stop at the door.

Hermione mumbling? What is happening to the world?

'I'm sorry, but what?'

'I. Asked. Ron. To. Slughorns. Party. Okay????'

I hug her. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No more Ron whining about the fact that he doesn't have Hermione.

No more Hermione worrying over whether Ron likes her or not!!!

YES!!!!!!!!!!! There IS justice in the world!!!

'So makeover?' I ask, examining her. She nods smiling slightly. I grin and turn to Becks who jumps.

'YAY!!! Makeover for us all!!!'

'All?' Hermione asks as we stroll over to the table. Becks giggles and I roll my eyes.

'Colin asked me!!!'

'Oh wow Becks that's great!' Oh Godric they're doing that giggly girl thing with the jump and the squealing! What has happened to my best friends?

I plonk myself down at the table next to Ron. I grin at him.

'What?' He asks looking at me.

'Nothing.'

'What??'

'I know something you wouldn't want Fred and George to know about!!'

'Oh Merlin!! Ammm could you please refrain from telling them! I'll... do something for you!'

'Like what? Oh intriguing! He is actually nervous! He should know by now that I'd never do such a thing!

Well unless otherwise provoked a'course!!

'I'll get Harry to ask to Slughorns party!!!'

At this Harry who is eating a sandwich chokes and splutters comically. Also at this particular moment I get hit in the side of the face with something pink and fluffy.

It didn't hurt so much but judging by the looks I'm getting it did something odd.

'What?'

They just stare at me. 'Somebody tell me!!!' I say angrily.

All of them point behind me. I turn and my jaw drops.

There's an enlarged picture of me up on the wall.

From the Daily Prophet.

Yeah the Daily Prophet.

But that's not all somehow someone got a photo of...

Well do you remember that small incident when Harry dragged me off the couch in the Common Room whilst laughing about Malfoy and his boxers? And I was on top of him.

Of course you do.

My life of embarrassing incidences is just a big joke to you all. But for some odd reason I still love you.

Well someone got a picture of that. And sent it to the Daily Prophet.

And across the top of the page in big pink glittery letters are the words;

'Has this Crimson haired temptress capture The Chosen Ones' Heart?'

Everyone in the hall is either blinking at it or whispering mutinously against me about it.

I am sooooooo dead.

If not by the vast Fan-girl circuit in Hogwarts named 'The Chosen Ones' Chosen Girls' (I mean honestly!! What the hell are these girls on??? Harry doesn't even KNOW them!!

Then by my darling mother who will kill me for being a 'Cheap, good-for-nothing, Scarlet woman, vile HARLOT!!!!'

YES!!! From my OWN MOTHER!!!!!

Oh no...

I see Errol.

With a big red envelope.

A Howler!!!

Run Ginny Run!!!

Ahhhhh bloody bird is chasing me!!!

It bit me!!!

Bastard!!!!

Well there you go!!! I hope it's okay!!

There shall be the quidditch match in the next one!! It should be fun to write!! And I think I shall Little Miss Ginny Weasley doing what she does best! Kicking some ass!! You like?

Yay? Neigh? Or We are not horses you daft author?

Well whichever it is!! You know what to do your hand is inching over to that little purple button saying 'REVIEW!'
