21 Years Old...And Still As Clueless
By gabriella1234

"ARGHHH! I HATE YOU! YOU ARE SUCH AN ARROGANT PRAT, POTTER!" yelled Ginny Weasley as she apparated away.

Shit! thought her boyfriend, Harry Potter. That's the third time this week she's done that. What's gotten into to her? as he apparated away to find her.

Just as an audible 'POP' was heard, Ginny came into the hallway from her and Harry's bedroom, checking that Harry wasn't around.

"Guys, you can come out now, he's gone. Hopefully he won't be back so quickly this time..." she said, letting her mind wander to the day before, when he came back after only half an hour and almost caught her making the plans with them. That was the closest shave they'd had.

"Isn't he getting suspicious?" asked Neville timidly, as if he was scared of what Harry might do.

"Nah, he's not. Now, down to work. I was thinking...small, only close family and friends. You guys know what he's like about big parties."

"Yeah. I've known Harry since I was eleven. I know the guy. He doesn't like fuss," said Ron, agreeing with Ginny.

"I agree to. It should be small, remember his 20th? He was quite angry at us when we suggested it to him!" said Hermione, reminiscing. "Well done to Ginny on her part of come up with the surprise! I wouldn't have thought about it!"

"Thanks, 'Mione. Anyway, guest list. I was thinki-",

"Cut the shite, Ginny. We don't have time. Harry could be back any minute. First, the obvious - you, me, Hermione, Luna, Neville, Lupin, Tonks and the rest of the family. Anyone else?" asked Ron to the small group gathered around Ginny's dining room table.

"Seamus, Lavender, maybe Dean?" questioned Luna dreamily, to no one in particular.

"Seamus and Lavender, definitely, but not Dean," said Ginny. "One, he's currently thinking that since I'm arguing with Harry, he has another chance, and two, he has publicly declared his hatred for Harry. So I don't think inviting Dean to his surprise 21st is a good idea."

"Ok, so that rules out Dean..." said Hermione, scoring Dean's name of one her parchment of names. "What about the Dursleys?"

"ARE YOU NUTS?" said Ron and Ginny together.

"Listen, 'Mione, I know your trying to do well but please, on Merlin's grave, don't invite them. He hates them, and will just put him into a bad mood. Let's just stick to what we've got now, okay?" said Ginny.

"Okay. No need to bite my head off. So, now we've got the guest list, where shall we have it?" asked Hermione.

"Definitely the Burrow" said Ron. "It's most like home to him. And we can't deprive Mum of cooking loads and loads of food...mmm...."

"Ron. Earth to Ron. RONALD!" yelled Hermione. "Wake up! Okay, location, The Bur-"

A 'POP' in the living room startled the four around the table. The were three numerous tiny 'POP's as they apparated away. Ginny knew she had to stay, only to cause another argument later.

"Harry? Is that you?' she asked tenderly.

"Gin?" came back Harry's deep voice. "Where are you? You just ran off like that, I was quite frightened!"

Ginny laughed silently. Voldemort at his height? No problem. Ginny Weasley running off? Leaves The Great Harry Potter quaking in his boots.

"I'm here. Sorry, again. Forgive and Forget?" she asked, knowing that would be first, and not the last time tonight that she would be saying that phrase, which she has been saying for about a week now.
