Right, well... this chapter is about Ginny but it doesn't actually say it... It's kinda awkward to explain so just read it... XD ~*~
Watching Harry walk out the door was torture to her. She wanted to be waking out that door with him but she knew that if she did, she would be a distraction to him and he wouldn't be able to concentrate properly.
She could hear Ron talking to Hermione but couldn't distinguish the words properly. Then she watched her brother walk out the door as well.
She turned to Hermione, and watched as she fell onto the couch and hid her face. She had always been between the boys during a fight and now they had told her to stay inside.
She let the tears fall freely as she looked down at the necklace Harry had given her. How she wanted to be next to him now. Her tears hot on her cheeks as she spoke to Hermione.
"I- i'm going u- upstairs and finding o- out what's happening. C- come on, there's a f- fire place up t- there in the office, we c- can go there"
She watched as Hermione's tear- stained face looked up at her and nodded.
Walking up the stairs, her footfalls seemed to echo around her. Each one counting down till Harry returned.
Up in the office, she peered out the window, down into the fight below. She watched as her dad shot a spell at a Death Eater, she saw the twins fighting together, She spotted Tonks battling with two Death Eaters and as Hagrid threw one over the wall. Then saw saw them. Harry and Ron, back to back, wands raised, standing in the center of a circle of Death Eaters, waiting.
Her heart hammered in her chest as she watched Harry talking to Ron. somewhere behind her she heard Hermione's voice.
"Professor Dumbledore"
She tore her eyes away from the fight and walked towards the fire as Dumbledore's head appeared in the fire.
"Miss Granger? Miss Weasley? Is there a problem?"
"Death Eaters are here sir. They're fighting outside now" Hermione said as her eyes travelled to the window.
"I'm guessing Harry is out there Ginny?"
Her eyes returned to Dumbledore as she nodded. His voice was full of concern. Again, the window attracted her eye as a single tear escaped.
"So is Ron. They said that me and Ginny had to stay and contact people from the Order Professor" Hermione explained.
The voices around her sounded distant as she kept glancing at the window. Unable to control herself, he walked back to the window and searched for Harry. This time she told Hermine and Dumbledore what she could see.
"Lupin and Mum are dueling someone, Hagrid is still throwing them over the wall when they fall, Tonks is hurt, So is Luna and Neville but they're still fighting, Dean is being looked after by Dad, I think he's out cold..." She listed what she could see but didn't voice what was going through her head. 'Where are they?'... Then Dumbledore's voice broke through her thoughts.
"They'll be okay. If they rescue you from the Chamber of Secrets," She shivered as the thought returned to her, "then they can survive this Miss Weasley" Even though the thought that something had happened was still in her head, she smiled.
"Very well, I shall contact the others, you and Miss Weasley stay here and contact me if Voldemort shows up. Goodbye" And Dumbledore was gone.
In the silence that followed she continued to search from the window. Hermione had joined her now. She still saw no sign of them. There was no sign of a fight. Not a single Death Eater...
Then there was shouts from below.
"GINNY? HERMIONE?" ~*~
What'd ya think?
