A kiss from the moon

Cash rules everything around me

- disclaimer! The song I put in is the same one Sofia was listening to in this chapter!

The next time Sofia spoke to Ginny again was about a week after the full moon. And it was in the same place that they had met the first time, the girls bathrooms on the second floor.

Sofia had made it a habit to take these early showers, she didn't like all the girls seeing her sweaty and gross in the morning. She couldn't help but blush a little at that, because when she thought of girls Ginny Weasley often popped up in her head. Since she had told Sol about how she felt a week ago in that weird storage room, her feelings had become more and more apparent to Sofia. Well.. she didn't know if you could call them feelings really. She just thought the girl was pretty, it wasn't like she was in love or anything. Ew no, Sofia would never fall in love.

Deep in her thoughts Sofia continued brushing her teeth while Wu- Tang clan played in her ears. Zacharias had lent her his walk man the evening before. But he had been fast to remind her to not use up all of the battery, this was supposed to last the whole term. Sofia was only supposed to use it for ten minutes at the most. And she would, but Zacharias had such good music taste that sometimes she just forgot herself and listened for way too long. Sofia hummed to her self as she spit out the toothpaste in the sink.

"Cash rules everything around me, CREAM get-
Yeah, check this old fly shit out, word up
Cash rules everything around me
CREAM get the money, dollar dollar bill, y'all
Take you on a natural joint
Here we here we go, check this shit, yo"

Raekwon and Method Man started rapping in Sofia's ear and she started swaying a little to the background beat. This was way embarrassing and she would never do it in front of anyone but it was just something about Wu- Tang clan that made her want to get up and bust a move.

"'s been twenty-two long hard years, I'm still strugglin'
Survival got me buggin', but I'm alive on arrival
I peep at the shape of the streets
And stay awake to the ways of the world 'cause shit is deep
A man with a dream with plans to make cream
Which failed; I went to jail at the age of fifteen
A young buck sellin' drugs and such, who never had much
Tryin' to get a clutch at what I could not touch
The court played me short, now I face incarceration"

Sofia got interrupted in her little dance with a tap on her shoulder. The tap surprised Sofia so much that she had struggle to keep balance in her place. Whoever it was she did not want to fall on her ass. She managed to keep her balance after struggling for a few seconds and turned around to see Ginny Weasley.

"What were you listening too?"
Asked Ginny, but the sound was muffled because Sofia still had the Walkman in her ears.
"Uhhh.. nothing really, just some tapes I borrowed from Zacharias."
It seemed like Sofia had found herself having a hard time forming sentences. She took out the walk man at least.
"Oh come on you looked like you were having so much fun! Tell me what it was? Please?"
Said Ginny pleadingly while Sofia felt mortified.
"Uh no, now that you've seen me dance I'm afraid I'll have to kill you"
Answered Sofia, not really looking in to Ginnys pretty brown eyes. Her red hair was hanging around her face and some parts at the front had curled up a bit because of the steam in the bathroom. Sofia was staring very intensely at those parts of Ginnys hair as they spoke to each other.
"Oh bite me! I don't mind you dancing at all, actually it's good to see you up and about after what happened last time we spoke."
Sofia gulped. She most definitely hadn't forgotten about what happened last time they met. She had basically collapsed in a sweaty pile on the floor in one of the corridors and Ginny had been kind enough to help her out. Embarrassing really.
"Alright miss nosy, I'm listening to Wu- Tang clan!"
Said Sofia and handed Ginny the Walkman.
"Oh cool!"
Replied Ginny and put on the Walkman. She grinned when she heard the music and started nodding her head to the beat a little. Sofia couldn't help but notice that Ginny had a grin that made her look quite mischievous. She got this spark in her eye and there was suddenly something playful over her face.

"I like it"
Said Ginny after a while and took of the Walkman. She handed it to Sofia who was quick to shit it of, Zacharias was going to be mad about how much battery she had already wasted.
"Yeah? Cool."
Said Sofia, a part of her had kind of wished that Ginny had said she despised hip hop in any form.
"You don't really grow up with Fred and George as your brothers without hearing a few tunes like this. They like to blast this in the early morning as lovely wake up call!"
Said Ginny while she leaned on the bathroom wall.
"Really? That's sounds like more fun then my house. That place is dead quiet most of the time."
Sofia blurted out the words and regretted saying them almost instantly. Good god she usually never said anything like that in front of people. She had made it a point really to talk as little as she could about her home life and here she was now talking freely to a girl she barely knew. But lucky for Sofia, Ginny had picked up on Sofia's instant silence and started talking instead.
"So.. early showers huh?"
Said Ginny and Sofia nodded at her words.
"Yeah.. I prefer being alone when it come to things like this"
That was partly true. Sofia didn't mind having girls in the bathroom while she was there but she did mind other people seeing her sweaty and gross. She felt like maybe then they could guess what she was.
"I do too, it's just nice be alone for a few moments really"
Said Ginny thoughtfully. Sofia felt like she wanted to get out of there now. Never mind that she only had a bathrobe on and that her hair was still soaking wet and flopping down her back, she had let this become too awkward.
"Well, I should head out so you can have the shower all for yourself!"
Said Sofia and gathered up her necessities.
"That's nice of you, but while your here I wanted to ask you something?"
Said Ginny and actually met Sofia's eyes. Ginny had absolutely wonderful eyes though Sofia. They were the color of this earthly brown, rich and deep. It was nice to look in to them actually.
"Well I wanted to ask you if you wanted to go the Hufflepuff/Gryffindor game together? I heard it's going to be a really interesting match and since you are a Hufflepuff and I'm a Gryffindor I thought it could be a fun thing. Unless your like really competitive or something"
Said Ginny quickly like she was a bit nervous. Sofia felt like shit. The game was the day after the full moon and she was probably going to be asleep.
"I'm so sorry Ginny, I have remedial potions that day, but maybe some other time"
Said Sofia filled with a bubbly anxiety that she couldn't just say yes. But Ginny just nodded and looked pretty unaffected.
"Definitely some other time then!"

And with that Sofia left the bathroom feeling like shit. She was never this awkward with anybody else and she had lots of friends that she had no issues talking to so she couldn't understand why everything felt wrong whenever she talked to Ginny. She didn't even mind her bare feet hitting the cold stone floor as she walked fast trough the halls. She was even too busy overthinking everything too notice that she had left the Walkman in the bathroom.
