Ginny sighed. This was one of her first times ever getting a brand new robe. Money was so tight (although you would never hear it from the Weasleys themselves) that mostly Ginny got her brothers' old hand-me-downs. She stood patiently waiting her turn. Madam Malkin was in the back looking for something for another customer. This place was so boring.
Deciding to do something about the boredom, Ginny walked around the store look and feeling types of cloth. If her mother hadn't made her swear not to wander off, she would've been in the Quidditch shop by now. She was growing antsy. Looking at brooms and flirting with some of the boys were a lot better than just staying in her waiting all day.

I was looking at the new robes trying to find something for the masqurade this year. There was nothing of intrest until I spotted Ginny, my closest female friends. I ran over to her to say hi. I covered her eyes with my hands.
"Guess who," I wispered from behind as she browsed through the racks.

"It's good to see you too, Hermione" Ginny laughed a little. "What are you doing here? I thought surely Harry and Ron were keeping you busy for the summer. I thought I heard something about rubbing themselves off on you" Oh how longed to run over to the Quidditch shop, but her friend was nice company and could keep her mind off it. No matter how much she wanted to try out for the team. "How are you?"

"We're not allowed to talk to Harry at all." I replied head down. "Dumbledore forbid us from it. I havn't seen Ron because my parents have kept me for awhile before I go back to school. I got my letter so I came to get my supplies. What're you doing here." I watched her eye the Quidditch store across the street and smirked. "You so want to check it out. I'll go with you if you go tell your mum quick."

"That stinks" Ginny said, looking at her friend. "It's sad. It was always a blast when you and Harry came to the burrow. I'm here because mum decided I needed new dress robes for school, since I'm just using Ron's old books this year." She grinned at her friend. "I'll be right back!" she yelled, running off to her mother real quick.
It didn't take much longer for her to come back. Ginny scowled. "She says I have to wait until after I get my robes, but thanks for the offer. Have you got anymore news on Dumbledore and Harry? Mum's been pretty good at making sure I don't have any information so far and I don't think the twins getting into trouble is helping much."

"No one is believing Harry, Dumbledore, or Cedric." I recounted the Daly Prophet Articles. "Harry and Cedric are the tramatized kids and Dumbledore is the old crazy koot. I think Cedric is getting the heat more because he used to be so popular. Now he's categorized with us. The school wierdos." I laughed at the thought because I didn't care. "I just feel really bad for him. But I'm afraid to ask him if he's okay. He may not be popular anymore but he's still intimidating. He so intelligent. More than people realize. I've never felt so...so.. matched."

"Do you like him? Cedric I mean..." Ginny asked, pratically bouncing up and down. "Personally I feel more sorry for Harry. He always sort of an outcast in both worlds, considering how often he actually talks about the Dursleys. Quite frankly I'm surprised that nobody barged over there and take him away. Things been seeming to go from bad to worse around him." Ginny sighed. There she was going again, babbling about her crush as if she was some little kid.

I blushed looking around. "No I... I..." I studdered knowing she wouldn't believe me. "I don't know. But yes, of course I feel bad for Harry. How could I not. He's one of my best friends." I ran my fingers over the beautiful fabrics ad I walked along with Ginny.

Ginny nodded. "What do you think of this one?" she asked, grabbing a soft flowy material the color of Harry's emerald eyes. "Wouldn't this be perfect for a ball?" she spun around. She was grinning and thinking about how much Harry might like it or whichever boy she'd be dating at the time.

"I think it looks like a flowery field." I laughed. "You excited for the ball? I saw her eyeing all the formal dresses anxiously." I saw Mrs. Weasley waving her arms to get our attention madly in the distance. "I think your mum wants you by the way."

Ginny looked a little down at the comment but cheered up. "Yeah, come on let's go see what she wants!" Ginny said, running over in the direction of her mother. "I'll race you Hermione!"

I rolled my eyes but raced after her because when I was with Ginny I felt more relaxed. And way more... girlie. We raced all the way to Mrs. Weasley.
