Okay.

There is a way out of this.

There has to be.

I steadily back up the street.

Harry steps slightly in front of me.

'Are you fucking insane man?' I ask as he steps fully in front of me.

'Well, my train of thought on this is that they are' He groans loudly, 'Obsessed with me right? Then they don't what to maim or damage the face or general packaging. Right?'

I look at him with a look of pure shock and horror. Honestly thought, for a self-deprecating hero, he can be quite full of himself.

'You are the most heroic'

He bows.

'And idiotic guy I have ever had the fortune or misfortune of meeting.'

He frowns.

'Fortune or misfortune?'

'Haven't made up my mind yet.'

'Doesn't look like you have long.' Harry says looking at the storm breaking down on us.

I have never been so terrified of a bunch of girls, ever.

'Well, might as well go down with style.'

'Good luck fightin-Hmmmf!' I grab Harry's head and kiss him with all I'm worth.

Silence purveys the scene.

Oh boy.

I pull back from Harry. Harry just blinks dazedly down at me.

I gulp and turn to face the crowd of rabid girls.

And what I see is strange, freaky and oh so hilarious.

Some girls are bawling their eyes out, some have, much to my huge surprise have fainted and then there are the other lot.

Who have turned bright red.

I gulp again.

It seems to be the only noise in the area.

Romilda Vane seems to be the little ring-leader.

Meaning, not so good times for me.

Oh no...

Well I take out my wand and hold it up.

Really, I am not too sure as to what I can do...

As the Weasley handbook says 'Never say never, never say die and for the love of Merlin NEVER trust Fred and George. EVER!'

In fact that was scrawled on one of our trees.

Actually was one of Ron's signs of magic. Not his first, though...

Basically Fred and George were after messing with Ron with yet another spider, Ron was about six and he started yelling in the garden various things, as Ron is known to do. Not exactly a quiet temper in that brother of mine.

Suffice to say Ron managed to engrave in the tree minus any blades. I wasn't too happy because I remember getting a lot of bark and stuff up my nose.

I was sneezing for weeks!

Anyways, I best pull myself back to the present.

Oh, Romilda Vane.

Fun and joyfulness!

I look her full in the face and am surprised to see that she has somehow managed to turn neon green.

Did I do that?

I look down at my wand then at Harry who is looking similarly confaffled.

I hear laughter from my left. Becks is standing next to Colin and both look amazed.

Can't say I blame them. Hermione is standing, wand withdrawn and smiling, dare I say it?

Cockily?

MY MERLIN!

And the coolest thing is that, she manages it with bits of silver charms in her hair and does not look ashamed of it.

I don't know how Luna tied them in so tightly all I know is that I am not letting that child near MY hair EVER!

I grin before aiming my wand at Romilda Vane and casting a Bat-bogey Hex to end all Bat Bogey Hexes.

(A/N: Does anyone have a clue as to what the incantation is for that spell? Or has anyone heard of a good made up one? It's really annoying not having one for this iconic spell of Gins. Grrrr)

The rest of the girls scarper.

WOOT! WOOT!

I skip over to Hermione and hug her.

'YOU ARE MY HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!'

She laughs and pushes me off.

'Yeah, right!' Whilst Harry humphs.

'I just stood in the way between you and them, risking major bodily harm, but no need to thank me or anything.'

Becks, Colin and Luna, much to my surprise, but it is Luna, she tends to make surprising people normality, awwwwww and Hermione shakes her head.

I smile and waltz over to Harry and throw my arms round his neck.

'Don't be jealous of Hermione. You did save me way back when.'

I plant a kiss on his cheek and he looks down at me.

I blink up at him and he laughs, Colin whistles to grab out attention.

Hu-?

FLASH!

'Owwwww!'

'COLIN! I would like to KEEP the great eyesight I am accustomed to! I'd rather not go blind!' I yell blinking really uncomfortably. It's like a set of Fred and George's fireworks were set off in my eyeballs.

Owwwww!

Colin looks over at us.

'Sorry but it was too good a shot to not take.'

I frown and Harry blinks some more.

Becks grabs the picture and awwwwwwwws some more.

'Look Hermione.'

'That's so sweet!' Is she cooing?

OH COME ON!

And then I am promptly hit across the back of the head. I go flying forward in a style that Tonks would be SO proud of!

I miss the floors of Hogwarts, they aren't so bumpy.

And stony.

And they try to marry me instead of cutting my nose to shreds!

I roll over and sit up, rubbing my bleeding nose.

I turn to look at who cursed me.

Come on you know who it is!

And the answer is...

If you guessed Romilda Vane then you...

ARE RIGHT!

Talk about a no brainer.

Colin takes another picture but this one is really amusing I must say.

I hexed her again.

Well, actually I'm not sure what I did to be honest.

I think it was a combination of a colour change jinx and one of Georges' feathering hexes. I'm not sure how I did it, but Vane is now really feathery.

Still green.

Oh did I mention the purple polka dots?

Yup. The Princess of The Psycho Patrol is all green, feathery and has huge PURPLE POLKA DOTS!

SOMEONE ACTUALLY LOVES ME!

'YAY!' I jump up and clap my hands.

Harry and Colin stand on either side of me, turn their heads whilst staring at the multicoloured human-bird and look up at me.

'And how do you intend on reversing that?' Colin asks quizzically.

'Ummmmmmmmmmm...'

'Ummmm?' Harry questions arching his eyebrow, but I see his shoulders shake slightly as he stands up straight.

'I haven't the foggiest. But then again, do I care?'

Hmmmmmmmmmm...

On the whole I think not.

'I think we should go.' Becks says grabbing Colin's arm. Talk to you two later!'

'Bye!' Harry and I wave.

We turn to look at Romilda Vane before bursting out laughing.

'Come on, let's get some Butterbeer.' Harry says right before grabbing my hand. Bird Vane squawks from behind us and I stick my tongue out at her, childishly. She squawks again and I laugh brightly. Harry tugs my hand and we walk down the street once more.

Ginny Weasley kicks ass!

Hey! I am so cool I even do a little dance!

Don't look at me like that Harry!

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

I sail into dinner with a huge smile on my face. Becks and Colin whistle but I just laugh at them cheerily.

'Evening!'

'Looks like someone had fun!'

'Indeed I did!'

'And not denying it I see.' Colin says whilst grabbing some Sheppard's pie.

'I think that by agreeing that I was certainly being upfront about it.' I say grabbing some chicken curry.

Yum. Spending time with Harry can really work up a girl's appetite.

'Hey!'

Harry slides in next to me grinning just as much as me, if not more so. His hair is sticking up even more so now. I reach up to tame it slightly.

It's so funny every time I touch his hair. He shoots up in his seat and turns to me with a wide eyed expression that is amazing cute yet totally laughable.

I do indeed laugh at him.

'Sorry, your hair was sticking up even more so then the usual.'

'And whose fault is that?'

'Yeah well neh!'

'Is that your best argument? Neh?'

'I have had a very hectic day! Besides I don't remember you arguing about it all too much if at all.'

'Ammmmmmmmmmmmm...'

'Thought so! HAH!' I turn triumphantly in my chair and continue to eat, ignoring the laughs I'm getting from my so called best friends.

Becks snorts into her soup.

'Eww!' I do in a perfect impression of Lavender Brown when she sees me come in from a muddy practice. I don't think that girl has touched a speck of dirt ever!

She even manages to come out from Herbology spotless.

That is unnatural. But this could be a rather biased opinion I suppose.

Becks starts her uncontrollable laughing fit.

Uh...oh?

Yes, indeed it is uh oh.

Well actually more like 'OH SHIT!' Colin leaps up as Becks starts choking.

'Anapneo' Harry calmly says flicking his wand at Becks.

How you choke on soup is beyond me, but then again it is Becks we're talking about...

The lump of food she was choking on hits a rather oddly tinted and still slightly feathery Vane on the back of the head. I burst out laugh and topple backwards.

Ain't that always the way?

Argh.

So heres me on the ground cursing the powers that be for this case of Tonksitus.

Speaking of which...

'Tonks?' I spot a pale witch as some Hufflepuffs enter the hall.

Harry looks over to where I'm staring and his jaw drops.

'C'mon.' He says grabbing my hand and dragging me up.

We both run out of the hall just in time to see a flash of brown hair.

Brown?

Why is Tonks not her usual colourful self?

'TONKS! Wait up!'

'Oh, hello Ginny, Harry.'

'What are you doing here?' She is not looking well, really pale with limp hair that is almost scary.

'Oh, nothing. I came to talk to Dumbledore about- well it doesn't matter. He's not here.'

'What? He isn't?' I ask frowning.

'No Gin, he's hardly been in at all this week. Didn't you here Hermione panicking about it? You know with Ron and all.'

I think rapidly over the week. I come to the realisation that I haven't seen our Headmaster since Ron's' accident.

Well accident on purpose but never mind that right now.

'Yes, well I did hear a rumour of people being attacked, but I thought. Again that doesn't matter. Have either of you heard from Remus?'

That was a random question.

Harry shakes his head.

'No, none of the order has contacted us. Well, not since Sirius... ummmmm' Harry trails off awkwardly. I look at Tonks, she looks stricken.

'Well, I gave a letter to Becks from the Professor but I don't think it was from him, exactly. Not that I'm all that sure, to be honest...' I also trail off awkwardly and tears fill up in Tonks' eyes. I don't think I explained that right... or in any intelligent manner. But she's crying!

Oh Godric! I move forward.

'Tonks?' But she shakes her head at me and runs down the corridor and out of sight.

I look at Harry; he looks at me with a complete look of confusion.

'What?' I ask. He seems rather expectant.

'Well, you are a girl... so...'

'Nicely spotted Potter. Should I be worried that it took you this long to figure that much out about me?' I snap.

'What's that supposed to mean?'

'Well it only took you, how long? To figure out I wasn't just your best mates' little sister!'

'It wasn't my fault!'

'Then whose was it? Huh, no one is controlling your mind! No one was then either! I was just a dumb kid in your eyes!'

'I was a dumb kid! Besides you were one of the girls who were obsessed with me, Gin and I was just beginning to realise what being Harry Potter meant to this world!'

'Come on! I was an idiot in your eyes!'

'I never saw you as an idiot!'

'Really? What about the look you gave me after the incident with the diary and then you just forgot about it as though it meant nothing!'

'I'm SORRY about that Ginny! You have no idea how much!'

'Somehow I don't believe you!'

'What the fuck Ginny? Who do you think I am?'

'I don't know, Harry, I really don't. I think I have you figured out and then you do something and I'm left in a mess of confusion all over again.' I look away.

He turns my head towards me and looks me in the eyes.

'What do you mean?' He asks in a gentle tone of voice.

I shake my head.

'Gin, you mean a lot to me, much more then well any of your brothers would say you should. Nothing can change that.'

I giggle quietly. Harry blinks and smiles slightly.

'What?' I ask.

'I think this counts as a 'first fight' right?'

'Just be glad it didn't come to blows.'

'Yeah, I don't need any more scars thank you.'

'Hmmmmmmmmm...'

'Come on.' Harry grabs my hand and we head up to the Common Room.

'Why aren't we heading back to the hall?'

'Well, I just figured that the Common Room, would be empty so...'

'You are very forward, Mr. Potter.'

'Why yes, yes I am.' He then swiftly tosses me over one shoulder and runs up the staircase laughing.

'Harry!'

'Ouch! Watch it would you that was my arse!'

'And a very nice one it is too!'

'Weasley! Potter! WHAT on earth are you two doing?'

Oh bugger it.

McGonagall.

Hey it gets better! Vane is with her!

Fuck sake!

Here we are! I once again apologise for the delay but there has been a LOT going on for me! I am now, officially apart of my new school! It is weird let me tell you! But back to this!
