ASTRONOMY TOWER

I made my way up the never ending stairs that wound up to the top of the tower, where I was to meet Ginny.
     I was thinking a lot as I went up those million stairs, maybe if I pushed her off the astronomy tower all my problems would go away. Except, then I'd have a dead Ginny, that's another problem itself.
My master plan wasn't going to work (don't tell anyone, but I probably wouldn't have the guts, anyways. I kind of have a soft spot for the Weasley girl.), I had no idea what to expect, and Ginny was probably waiting up there for me.
     I began to run, but quickly gave that up when I nearly slid down the stairs, due to the fact I was in socks. I didn't want to alarm anyone on night duty! I'd have been screwed!
     After what felt like forever I reached the top, yawning. Why'd she make me do this? I wanted to sleep. Also, what if this was a set up! Yes, that went through my head. There isn't a thing Carmen doesn't miss. I'm just too clever.
     "Ginerva Molly Weasley?" I called, she hated it when I called her her full name, it was a joke, of course. I couldn't see the girl who I was to be meeting anywhere. Was I seriously blown off? I hope not, that'd really suck. No one blows me off, I'm the one who does that.
     Suddenly, I felt someone come up and grab me around my waist from behind. That scared me so awful, I hate Ginny Weasley!
     How did I know it was her? C'mon, how could I just forget what her touch feels like. Electrifying, really. Or maybe that's just because I was scared.
     "Don't do that!" I said quickly, turning around, making her let go of me, so I could see her. She laughed at my.. Cowardly-ness, I scoffed at her. It wasn't funny!
     "Hi." She said softly, and I cupped her face with my hands. I truly missed her.
We stood in silence, I didn't have any words. She looked flawless in the moonlight and I felt my heart swell up with love for her.
     In a swift movement, I pulled her face to mine, our lips crashing together. Butterflies whirred inside of my stomach and I realized that I'm exactly where I want to be as I felt Ginny place her hands at the small of my back. I wouldn't want to be with anyone else. I know it sounds stupid, but I really am fond of her. I don't know what it is about her, maybe it's because we shouldn't be together.
     It didn't matter to me, nothing in the world mattered more than this moment to me.
     I guess walking up all those stairs turned out to be worth it after all, anything would be worth it for this.
I decided to break the kiss and ask her what I'd really been wondering.
     "Are you really with Dean now?" I asked meekly and Ginnys gentle smile faded and she frowned at me, I knew straight away from her expression what the answer to my question was.
     "Well, are the two of you shagging?" I continued and smirked, tucking my hair behind my ear and leaning against the wall. I wasn't actually confident with what I was asking, but maybe if I acted casual it'd be less embarrassing. I am not going to make a fool of myself and waste my time.
     "Dunno yet." She said honestly, and I was glad she told me. I simply scoffed and flipped my hair behind my shoulders. May as well leave my options open.
     For some odd reason, I was upset with her answer. I'd have prefer her to just lie! But whatever, Carmen Malfoy has better things to do with her time rather than dwelling on some measly little girl.
     "Well, I've ought to be going." I informed her and she said nothing, not that I cared. I then proceeded to make my way down the winding stairs, I had a far way downwards to go to reach the Slytherin common room.
     The day I've had.
     On my way back to the dungeons I wandered aimlessly, taking up as much time possible. I no longer felt tired, but overly awake.
