Chapter Three; Medrina's Magazine

Gee thanks guys you're amazing! Have I mentioned that I love you all SO much!? I mean seriously guys, I feel very blessed to have you as my readers and reviewers! You have made this series possible, because without all of your love and support this series wouldn't exist. There originally wasn't even going to be a sequel to Harry Snape because I wasn't sure how you would like it, and I was even questioning about posting that as well. But I'm glad that you enjoy them because I have fallen in love with them as well.

To Scrappy; It's nice to see you again! I might get back to my other Harry Potter series eventually, but I really am enjoying this one WAY more for the time being.

Anyway I wish you all a wonderful New Year, and I hope you had a GREAT Christmas as well! Thank you for sticking with me throughout this series, and I hope you enjoy the rest of it since I'm not stopping at Deathly Hallows. Thanks to you, this series is going to go on for a LONG time! Thanks again! Love you all! *HUGS*

Anyway, on with the story, God bless!

After the ride was over Harry and Ginny landed back on the ground in front of Ron. "Where on earth have you two been!?" he exclaimed as Angelica gave another snort before the two of them dismounted her.

"I'm sorry Ron, but I was just taking Harry for a ride." She apologized.

"Yeah well while you two were off joyriding those leprechaun friend of yours were busy trashing my room and smashing my piggybank! Not only did the poor thing come to a graphic untimely death, (which he added that he could still hear its squeals in agony) but they took all of my money!" he cried.

"Gee Ron I'm sorry but you know how leprechauns are." She told him while Harry tried to comprehend what was going on.

"What are you talking about? What leprechauns?" he questioned them as Ginny took a deep breath.

"They were here this morning trying to sell me a magazine." She began. "And shortly after I bought it I realized that I didn't have enough galleons and they went berserk." She explained.

"And they took mine instead!" Ron yelled.

"I said I was sorry alright! I'll pay you back just as soon as I can! I promise!" Ginny told him before she turned back around to face Angelica. "You better go back home, all of your other unicorn friends and family are probably wondering where you are." She told her before taking a deep breath and sighing heavily as she turned to go inside the house.

"You know you don't have to be so hard on her." Harry began. "It's not like she knew that this was going to happen." He finished.

"If you ever personally met a leprechaun, you would know. They are completely obsessed when it comes to gold and money, and they absolutely hate to be cheated of it." Ron told him. "Besides, the product that they were selling isn't very good either." He said with a shake of his head.

"Well what was it then?" Harry asked him.

"Oh c'mon Harry! This is my sister that we're talking about! Do you really think that she would ever spend her money on something useful or helpful?" he questioned him but Harry just simply shrugged.

"I dunno." He replied.

"Well she wouldn't!" Ron spat. "The magazine she bought is full of unlawful spells that they don't teach us at Hogwarts." He explained before he noticed that dazed dreamy expression on his friend's face. "What's the matter with you anyway!? Do you like her or something?" he questioned him as Harry suddenly blushed as red as a tomato.

"No." he answered anxiously. "I mean I do, but we're just friends." He told him still trying to ignore the warm sensation that he felt inside his stomach.

"Well that's good, because she's got a boyfriend." Ron told him.

"What?" Harry questioned suddenly being taken aback. "Who is he?" he asked him.

"Dean Thomas. He's alright I'll admit, but I always wished that like her I wish that he was you. However you never made a move, so I can't say I blame her for trying to get on with her life." He explained before he turned around and walked away.

Harry hung his head and heaved a heavy sigh. "Yeah, excellent." He said sadly before Angelica snorted and gently touched her nose to his cheek. Harry glanced up at her and started stroking her mane.

…

Ginny laid on top of her bed stretched out on her stomach blasting The Dragons music through her bedroom while she looked through her magazine. That's when suddenly Harry entered her room and sat down beside her. "Hey." He began before she quickly glanced up from her reading material and looked at him.

"Oh hullo Harry, I'm sorry, I didn't hear you come in here." She said.

"That's alright, what are you reading?" he asked her.

"Medrina's Magazine. It has a lot of cool spells and jinxes in it." She replied.

"Like what?" he asked her.

"Oh things like gluing somebody's lips together, or causing uncontrollable farting. I'm thinking about using one or both of them on Ron next time we get into an argument." She explained as Harry stifled a laugh.

"Listen, I was just wondering. What do you do when you like someone but they're dating somebody else?" he asked her.

"I dunno," she began with a shrug. "Dean's my first boyfriend so that hasn't really come up yet." She said. "Why, is Cho dating someone else?" she asked him.

"No, we broke up last year." He began before beginning to turn his head away from her. "It's funny really. I used to see her as nothing more than a sister." He said.

"It isn't Hermione is it!?" she exclaimed with sudden astonishment and disbelief while starting to come back to sitting, but before Harry could open his mouth again Hermione entered the room. He glanced up at her while she came into the room carrying a couple of envelopes.

"Here, our school supply list came today." She said as she handed them over to each of them.

"Already? Harry hasn't even had his birthday yet." Ginny said as she took her letter from Hermione's hand.

"Here you go Harry." Hermione said as she gave him his. "I'm guessing that either one of your parents told Dumbledore that you're staying here with us, or he knows already." She said.

"Thanks Hermione but you just interrupted an important conversation!" Ginny exclaimed. "Harry was just about to tell me what girl he likes!" she cried as Harry lowered his head and sighed again.

"Uh, listen Ginny." She began. "I think Harry just needs some more fresh air right now." She told her before looking back over at him. "Do you want to go for a walk?" she asked him as Harry just simply nodded at her before he stood up and followed her out of the room.
