Hey ho, I'm back with another fabulous chapter, you can thank me later, that I think you're gonna enjoy. Well, I hope so, we last ended off at something I think I can work with, but I cannot make any promises. So, please read, review, and have fun! On with le chapter.
Ginny's POV.
Dinner was super boring. Harry mostly talked with Sirius, Ron, and Hermione all night. Tonks and Lupin talked with me the whole night. They asked about school, how I thought summer was and all of that kind of stuff. Finally, fed up with Harry ignoring me, I slammed my fork down.
"I'm not hungry anymore." Everyone had turned to look at me, Fred and George stared at me surprised by my outburst. Mom looked shocked. Lupin and Tonks stared, lips slightly parted. Hermione seemed horrified, as did Ron. Harry gave me a skeptical look, one of puzzlement. I wouldn't stay there long enough to let him figure me out.
I slid nearly soundlessly out of my chair and marched up the stairs. I was halfway up the stairs when I felt my arm jerk backward. I stopped, one foot a step above the other. I jerked my head to see who had grabbed my arm, expecting to see one of my brothers, instead there was Harry. He had a concerned look on his face. My red hair fell and framed my face, some getting in my eyes. Harry pulled my up the stairs, not speaking. I was paralyzed, his hand clasped around my wrist, pulling up, until we were in the attic. Harry and I sat down near the desk on the old, wooden chairs. He spoke first.
"Ginny, why were you so upset?" I noticed this line, the line that every brother of mine asked me. Guess I'm another person's little sister. I sighed.
"It's complicated." I felt like how I did earlier in the night, falling. The same rush of air flooded through me, making me shiver. Harry looked at me with those stunning green eyes.
"Then make me understand." I felt my cheeks start to grow a scarlet color, as if his comment burned my cheeks. I looked at the ground.
"W-well. . . . I feel ignored." I blurted it out so suddenly, and loudly. I felt my cheeks redden even more, if that were possible. I bit my lip, squeezing my bottom lip between my teeth. Harry seemed shocked by the bluntness and audacity I showed.
"Why? Why do you feel ignored." I squeezed my eyes shut, really not wanting to answer. I heard a soft grunt. Now, a normal person might think that I was crazy for hearing something something so quiet, but I grew up with a family of boys, that's never just nothing. I hopped to my feet, heading for the door, surprising Harry. I flung the door open, revealing my three dorky brothers. Ron nervously smiled. I closed my eyes.
"Idiots. . . Did you plan this?" I had raised my voice, slightly from it's usual volume. I continued, not letting them respond.
"Are you manipulating me?" I felt the tears brimming my eyes.
"Ron, Harry . . . Am I just a . . a toy?" Ron stepped forward.
"No, Ginny-"
"Leave me alone!" I ran from the room, tears escaping my eyes. I charged into the bedroom Hermione and I shared and flopped on the bed. Hermione was already in there, reading. She put her book down and sat down by the foot of my bed.
"Ginny, are you . . . are you alright?" The tears were coming in floods down my face now. They were listening to me making a fool of myself, they heard every painstaking word, every emotion I put into word. I shook my head, not trusting myself with words. Hermione shut the door, then came over and started to stroke my hair.
"I think that your an amazing little sister. Just like the one I wish I had." I looked at her, eyes probably red from crying.
"Hermione, they heard every word. I-I thought w-w-we were alone. I-I-I feel so so manipulated." I wailed, and cried. Shoving my face into the pillow I let myself be raked with sobs. Hermione left the room, I had no idea where, and kept to crying.
No One's POV.
Hermione made her way to the attic, ready to yell at her idiotic best friend and crush. Ron had shown such a kind and caring personality, how protective he was, and how sweet he could be. Said girl arrived, seeing the boys looking shocked and sad. She erupted.
"How could you?! Ginny is your little sister! She has feelings you know! Stop messing with her and be nice! You idiots!" She was mad, Ginny who was like a sister to Hermione, was crying. Fred threw his arms up in protest.
"Hey, don't blame us. She usually beats us up instead of crying." Hermione started toward him, Ron grabbed her from behind, pulling her arms toward him, she struggled ready to defend Ginny. Harry walked right out of the attic completely. Hermione stared at him.
"Harry, where are you going?" Ron whispered in her ear.
"He knows what he's doing. Calm down." It was somehow calming to hear. Harry traveled down to where he remembered Ginny's room was. He knocked.
"Ginny? Can I please come in?" There was no answer. He tried again.
"Ginny? Please?" Finally a reluctant voice called out.
"Ok." Harry walked in, upon seeing Ginny his guilty feeling worsened inside him. He shut the door and collapsed onto his knees.
"Ginny. I'm so sorry. I didn't mean for them to be listening. I'm not saying you should forgive me, but please don't be mad." Ginny still had tear lines down her cheeks. Harry got up and walked toward Ginny. He sat on her bed cross-legged and pulled her to his chest. Harry could feel his cheeks going red and his heart thumping, but all he thought of was making her happy.
"Ginny, I'll do anything to make you happy instead of sad right now." She shifted a bit.
"Harry . . . promise me, promise me to listen when I ask you to." Harry smiled into her hair.
"Of course, no matter what." Ginny mouthed something, something that Harry didn't see. It was only three words. Those words would become important though. She said.
I love you.
That's it. It's a wrap. The end of another chapter had come to a close. I hope you liked the fluff. Yes, pain is a part of life, I don't care if you say she got upset for no reason, I would feel pretty dang awful if my crush did something like that, I mean I don't have a crush. Anyway, I know you're dying to read the next chapter, but you have to wait nine days. Bye!
