Chapter Seven: Ginevra Weasley
As the only girl in a family of seven children, she was used to A LOT of things. She was her Mother's doll, the envy of her siblings, and (of course) her Father's little princess. She was Bill's headache, Charlie's Quidditch rival, Percy's shadow, the twins' third (second?) mind in their jokes, and Ron's comparison. She was always the center of attention in her family, and the first sibling you would notice in the crowd. But at Hogwarts, she wasn't always the first girl noticed and she wasn't the one the boys liked the most.
That took some (READ: an infinite amount of) work. That took waking up about three hours before the others every day, restricting herself to only certain kinds of foods at certain meals, being creative with how she wore her uniform, hours in the library looking up mannerisms and other 'interesting' subjects she actually couldn't care less about. It took thousands of false smiles and TONS of makeup. But in the end, she succeeded, well, almost succeeded...
... His name was Harry Potter.
And no matter WHAT she did he refused to show her more than minimal interest.
SHE who had been dubbed Gryffindor's princess by the end of her second year...
SHE who became considered one of the most desirable Hogwarts' girls by her third year...
SHE who had slept with nearly half of the male student population at Hogwarts by her fifth year...
... Could do nothing against the obliviousness of the one boy whose hand in marriage would not limit her to the attention of simple school children...
...But give her the envious eyes of the ENTIRE wizarding population.
And when she finally had it, when she had FINALLY become Mrs. Ginevra Molly Potter nee Weasley...
.... She LOATHED it.
But that's the price she had to pay for her spotlight to stay on. And really, in the face of the past prices she had paid, marrying a closet gay Auror who was her EXACT opposite and STILL managed to check out men despite the near-lethal amount of love potion he was under...
... Was worth it...
Hey Everyone!
Well, this completes The Good Ol' Weasley Complex. I think I may have been a little too harsh on Ginny here. Also, if you would like for me to redo Fred's drabble I am currently considering it so please sway me one way or the other. All reviews are welcome. See you next time!
Bye!
