  Ginny had felt someone's presence. And she intended to find out whose. She walked along the corridor up and own until she tripped...on air. She bit her lip. And realization dawned on her.

She had found out about Harry's invisibility cloak in her second year when the twins stole it for a prank.

Horrified, she called out harry's name.
"Harry? Is that you?"

No answer.

She ran her hands along the wall where she tripped and felt around.

Nothing.

Unhappy, she went back to her room.
Harry breathed a sigh of relief. He carefully went back to the room he shared with Ron.

Back in her room, Ginny was thinking hard when Hermione came in.
"Hey Ginny. What's the matter?"
Hermione asked worried.

"Oh Hermione! I think HP knows! That I like him! What do I do?" Ginny wailed, uncharacteristically.

  Hermione was shocked until she remembered something. She had heard someone breathing on her way up. She had bumped into sonething too.

She had ignored it but now if came flashing back to her.

"Wait did you see him or- ?"

"He was under his Invisibility Cloak. It's obvious it was him. He made a creak, and if Ron or the twins had stolen the Cloak, they would know where the steps creak. But Harry hasn't been here that long. Oh my Merlin, I might as well hide my face till I get married!" Cried Ginny.

"You will do no such thing. But I may be able to talk to him." Said Hermione.

Ginny's eyes widened. She shook her
head.

"Fine. You win. Go write in your diary. That usually helps." Advised Hermione.

Ginny flashed her a smile.

Hermione knew her so well.

So Ginny did just that and for the rest of the afternoon, they chatted.

Then for dinner they went down.
Hermione took a seat next to Fred.
To Ginny's absolute horror, the only seat left was next to Harry!

She took the seat and face her attention to Hermione who was seating beside her.
Ginny glared at her.

Hermione gave her a sheepish smile.
Harry tapped her on the back.

She turned back to him and gave him a nod.

"Can you pass the potatoes, Ginny?"
She nodded. When she gave him the bowl their fingers brushed against each other and she blushed. Then she didnt look at him for the rest of the meal.

She ate and Hermione and Ginny went to bed. When she was sure Hermione was asleep Ginny crept along the floor until she reached her little night stand. Though it was at least five feet away from her bed.
She tapped the bottom of it carefully and a compartment opened up.

She grabbed the book in there and closed the door to the compartment.
She opened the book after crawling  cautiously to her bed. There it was.
Her scrapbook.

Other than her diary, it was her most prized possession.

She gazed at the pictures inside.
Her at the Yule Ball with Neville.
Hugging Cora and Rose.

And finally, pictures of Harry.
She smiled at his picture.

These were all Wizarding Pictures and he kept giving her a big grin.
Ginny sighed.

She thought about Hogwarts and how Harry failed to notice her at all there.
Well it wouldnt have mattered either way.
He was still smitten with Cho Chang.
Cho was pretty and smart but she was annoying too.

And she took advantage of people.
With a heavy heart, Ginny went to sleep.
Back in his room, Harry was thinking about what Ginny had said.

He felt bad that he didnt know.
After all, Cho was still his love interest.
Harry shook his head. He would leave for Hogwarts in one week.

He had other things to think about.
Lole the fact that he was leaving Sirius on his own with just Kreacher and Buckbeak for company.

Eventually, everyone in 12 Grimmauld Place fell fast asleep.
