I pace outside the staff room impatiently.

The gargoyles are very rude I'll have you know.

Professor McGonagall appears at the door.

'Finally!! I have only been waiting around being subjected to random insults by these things for a half hour!!'

'Weasley!! What do you think you are doing?' She demands looking sterner than ever.

'I need to see Professor Dumbledore right now.'

'Excuse me?' She sounds a little baffled.

'I need to see him right away.' I tell her eyebrows raised in expectation.

'Do you have any idea of what time it is?'

'Way past my bed time but I don't really care at the moment.' McGonagall just stares at me in bafflement.

I never thought that I'd see her baffled.

It is rather amazing.

'GINNY!!' Suddenly Harry comes skidding round the corner and smacks straight into one of the gargoyles.

'Oh Christ!' He mutters as he gets up off the floor.

'Professor!' He blinks up out of breath.

Professor McGonagall closes her eyes and mutters something under her breath.

Did I hear something about Potters?

Nah... can't have...

Could I?

'Professor! Sorry about this, but I can take Ginny to Professor Dumbledore's office if you want.'

'Yes, yes Potter. Go ahead.' She turns and walks back into the staff room.

'I'm too old for this and I thought the Marauders were bad. Merlin.'

I look over at Harry and he looks back in amazement.

'I think I'm hearing things.' He says looking at the shut door.

'Again??'

'Har har.'

'Now come on. You wanna know what's going on. Ask Dumbledore.'

'I will. Once you tell me the password.'

Harry opens his mouth then closes it with narrowed eyes watching me carefully.

'What are you going to do?'

'Nothing. Passsword?'

'Ginnnnny.'

'Harry!! Come on!!'

'C'mon.' He grabs my arms and frog marches me down the corridor.

'What are you doing?'

'Well, I clearly can't trust you not to leap at Dumbledore and punch him. Not intended as an insult. I felt the same way last year when-'

He stops in the middle of his sentence frowns at me and shakes his head.

'Say what?'

'Never mind, this isn't about me. It's about you.'

I'm so totally lost.

Someone find me and save me from the world of bafflement and show me the land of comprehension please??

--TRALALAAAA--

Well.

There you go.

I'm sitting on my bed in a state of catatonic shock.

Dumbledore told me everything regarding the Diary.

And I mean everything...

Including what had to be done to create it in the first place.

Oh Merlin...

I feel so...

ARGH!!

Suddenly a hand wave front of my face, without think (I swear) I bite it.

'HOLY SHIT!!'

Cue Becks flailing and me flying off the bed.

'AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!'

'What the hell?? Ginny you terrified me!! And oh dear Merlin!! My hand!!'

'Sorry, I've had a rough night.' Becks nods and plonks herself on my bed as I pick myself of the floor in a rather messy style.

'I heard.'

'Hmmmhmm.'

'Soo...' Becks stares at me wonderingly, not quite sure what to say next.

'If the next few words out of your mouth are 'do you wanna talk about it?' I will kill you.' I mutter lying down on my bed glaring at the ceiling.

'Wow... we are so stereotypical!! Talking into the night about out boyfriends and our problems... like Oh My GAWD!!'

The last bit is completely exaggerated with a veeeeeeeeeery strange American accent.

'Becky? What are you doing?' I am worried for her sanity... I really am.

'Oh sorry I was working on my Janice impression.'

'You were working on your what now?

'Oh yeah you wouldn't know about Friends...' I open my mouth to tell her that I full well know about friends' thank you very much when she cuts across me.

'It's a muggle thing Red.'

'I'll take your word for it.'

'Do. You'll only get confaffled otherwise. Oh! By the way Harry said for you to meet him downstairs at... ammm... Oh what did he say...? Zero hundred hours...'

'You what?'

A loud yell comes from one of the other towers.

'MIDNIGHT!!' I poke my head out the window and am surprised to see Seamus half way out the window.

'YOU WHAT??' I yell at him from my side.

'HE SAID MIDNIGHT GINNY!!' We both look up to see Hermione with her head out her window.

'OH ALRIGHTY THEN!' I pull myself back in and find Becks with the notebook in her lap.

That was odd.

How did either Seamus of Hermione hear us?

'I really am my father's daughter!!' She exclaims happily.

'I KNOW that!!'

'No, no look!!' She shows me the notebook and a bit of parchment that I remembered from Divination a couple of weeks ago.

'See!! Here's Dad talking, well passing notes to Harry's Dad!! We practically have had the same conversation!!'

I look at both pieces of paper...

By Fred and George... we did!

I have said on many occasions that myself and Becks are well... weird... right?

Well we decided to have a conversation about the word 'weird'.

Think about it!!

Weird is a very very weird word!!

Most people don't even know how to spell it!!

Wierd.

That's what people write.

Honestly. (Note to self: Have to stop sounding like Hermione it might have consequences. Really bad ones. shudder)

Weird eh?

They think that it must follow that rule... amm I before E except after C!!

Do you see a C in that word? Either before or after?

Nope.

You DON'T!

Do you understand the weirdness of the word weird?

Anyways!!

'Don't you think it's weird that we're having the same conversation about... oh... 20 years later? Give or take a couple of years.' Becks asks curiously with a rather wistful look on her face.

'Well... if look at it from the point of view of us being the female versions of Prongs and Padfoot. Then hell yeah. Even weirder is that I'm like HARRY'S Dad!!'

'And you kinda look like his Mom.'

I grab her throat and pin her to the bed.

'Never say that!!'

'Why?'

'Think about it!!'

She looks up at me with a bewildered expression which rapidly turns to horror.

'Oh GOD!! I didn't mean... I just... Oh boy!!'

I get up and watch her rant and try to apologise at the same time...

'What time is it?' I ask laughing slightly.

'Ammmm five to 12?' She stutters jerking out of her rant.

'Have to go!! Later!' I jump up and out of the bed.

Harry sure has some explaining to do.

I walk down the stairs casually; well I don't want to run as I will probably trip and break my neck.

'Hey.' Harry turns to me as I enter the Common Room.

'Hey yourself. What's going on?' I ask innocently.

'You know what. And first things first, I am sorry.'

'You should be.' I tell him and I feel a hard lump rise in my throat.

I swallow awkwardly.

He looks at me carefully. I look away trying to control myself.

'But then again, it wasn't really your fault. You wanted to tell me. I heard that much.'

'I did, I just have a hard time dealing with secrets. Enough of them have been kept from me all my life.'

I look at him blinking back tears furiously.

'I know there are things you haven't told me but have told Ron and Hermione,'

He flinches away at this and I smile slightly.

'I understand though. It isn't that you don't want to; it's just best if you don't tell me. It could be a lot different from my point of view then Ron and Hermione's. Also I'm not as close to you in that sense...'

I trail off awkwardly, not sure how to continue. He steps closer to me and places a hand on my cheek. I can't help but close my eyes and sigh slightly.

Damn that boy anyway.

'Well, I'd rather be closer to you in 'this' sense then either Ron or Hermione.' I chuckles lifting my head up. I open my eyes and see that he's smiling, eyes twinkling in mirth.

'I should hope so! Else it'd either be extremely weird or Ron would be killing you right about now.'

Harry looks at me completely baffled until realization dawns and he looks sickened.

I just suggested something incredibly weird and bizarre and utterly shudder worthy scenario.

I grin in a 'kidding, I'M KIDDING!! Forgive me?' sort of way. You know it's that face you use after you say something really weird and your friend isn't sure how to react. The big toothy slightly lopsided smile?

Oh well.

'Whoops?'

Harry laughs at me and pulls me and we get nicely reacquainted that that way I so terribly enjoy.

It's so terribly hard to be me.

HA!

--TRALALAAAA--

It painful to be me.

As you are about to learn I currently have Becks on my back.

I don't know why I do she's just there.

I'm also trying to balance all of Hermione's books, and avoid both Dean and Cormac McLaggen.

This is not fair.

Really not fair.

'Where did Hermione run off to?' Becks asks a smidgen too cheerfully from my back. I growl and try to shake her off.

'More importantly, Rebecca, could you get off my back? I need it to play in the game on Saturday.'

She slips off, flipping her hair out of her eyes, which have darkened to the grey of a storm due to her thinking.

'Isn't McLaggen replacing Ron for that match?' She asks.

I roll my eyes.

'You already know cause the rest of the team have been bitching about it all week. 'Specially me and Harry.'

'Much to Hermione's amusement, I'm sure.'

'Well I don't see you trying to deal with a crazed ex team-mate and an ego for a keeper!!'

'Heh. A walking ego.'

'More like flying ego. Poor me.'

'Poor Red.' She pats me on the shoulder in an absent minded way that reminds me of Luna.

I arch my eyebrow at her and she merely shrugs.

'It's so utterly terrible to be me.' I pout.

'How did practice go yesterday?' She asks, trying to change the subject but failing miserably. I think she has the attention span of a goldfish...

Though that is quite mean to the poor goldfish.

Sorry, didn't mean to insult you, poor little goldfish.

'Well besides the flying ego itself and the quaffles aimed continuously at my head. Good. Miss Ron and Katie though.'

'Yeah, I bet you would. How is Ron anyways?'

'What is the Q and A? Good he should be out in a couple of weeks and I gotta go!! I have practice!!'

I chuck Hermione's bag at her and sprint up to the tower shouting back at her to give it to Hermione.

Pant, pant.

'Ginny?' A voice calls me as I jog into the Common Room.

'One momento!! I shall be down in a flash.'

I head up; change into some older clothes tossing various items onto Becks' bed.

She won't mind.

Much.

Broom, broom, where did I leave my brooooooomstick!!

Oh, in my trunk oh responsible of me.

Makes a change I suppose.

'Zela! Ready to skedaddle?'

'Was before you were!' She grins leaning on her broom, flicking her hair back.

'Ha!'

We both stroll out. Laughing as we do.

--TRALALAAAA--

THAT was short lived.

Even by my standards.

Now I am sitting in a puddle of mud.

And it's raining.

Oh wait.

Hailing.

Fucks sake.

I try getting up but somehow I'm actually stuck in the mud.

Why is it always me??

I am stuck in the cold and have mud in some very awkward places and no one knows I'm down here.

They can't see me and I can't see them.

Neither can I hear them or vice versa.

Godric damn it!!

Yargh.

Also argh.

I look around desperately.

Unfortunately in the moment I look away I fail to see the bludger that apparently was set on hitting me.

Luckily though (for a change) the wind knocked it off course slightly causing it to impact the ground next to me.

But naturally fate would never let me off so lightly.

I happen to flying in the air.

For one brief moment I am free of the mud.

I cheer mentally.

Alas, I cheer too soon.

Headfirst into what must be Hogwarts' mud lake.

As soon as I surface I am left staring at a very odd image.

The rest of the team are gawking at me, covered head to toe in mud.

Not that they look much better but... I must look terrible.

Suddenly a huge flash goes off near my face.

'ARGH!! COLIN!!' I scream.

Thought the big bright spot dancing in my eyes I see a tall blonde figure running, slightly obscured by the rain.

'I'm going to kill you Colin!!'

And now all I have to follow is the sound of his maniacal laughter.

Oh he is going down!!

It's so terribly hard to be me!

Here we go!!
