By the Lake on a Clouded Eve (Tag-Ginny)

[Harry Potter]

The clouds loomed, ever present over head. Their dark color meant it might rain soon, but that did not stop the Chosen One from being by the lake on such a gloomy day. Very few students were out today, seeing as how the spirits of the lake weren't very high. Occassionally you'd see the squid come up the surface, wave a long tenticle hauntingly at one of the few students, then dive back beneath the darkened surface of the lake. The squid loved teasing students, especially when they ran like little children, trying to escape the beasts inevitable grasp. The older students persisted wanting of the beast to do such things, chase the younger years as sort of an anitiation of sorts. Harry was smiling, smirking to be exact, just as the squid grabbed onto a hufflepuff second year, her shreik bringing every teacher that was indoors outside to assist in the situation. Teachers always spoiled things for the older students, especially Harry because he rarely got to see anything really interesting.

Harry strolled out onto the grounds half passed noon, having just finished the majority of his lunch and now held a large red, shining apple in his hand. He took big bites, loving the juicy flavor of the ripe fruit. He loved apples, having always stolen one from the Dursley's icebox. He always knew how to anger Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia and Dudley as well for all were insolent little gits. He smirked gently at this thought and continued down to the lake, smirking still when he saw the teachers had immobilized the giant squid in order to get the screaming child down. Harry had to cover his ears, just because the girl's scream could easily outbeat those of merpeople when a certain egg wasn't submerged under the water. He robes whipped around him, just as he came to sit with his back against some random tree. His eyes sparkled behind his round rimmed glasses, gleaming as the sun cast down upon them. His hair was hidden under a small brimmed, wanna be french painters hat, black ofcourse and bearing the Gryffindor crest symbol on the front of it. His robes also bore the same symbol, just as every other student in Gryffindor had on them too. He also wore a white collared shirt tucked into fairly nice black slacks that bore a black, silver buckled belt. His shoes were nicely polished black dress shoes. He received confused glances for no one knew what his reasoning for looking so dashing. He removed the hat, placed it one his leg and shook his head abit, though his hair was already messy enough, he wanted it to be more so just because it gave him the look of having windswept hair. His pitch black hair glistened in what sunlight there had been, hints of gell spread throughout the lengths of his hair, which had gotten quite longer over the long summer vacation. He smiled as the day just seemed to pass him by, unaware someone was standing over him.

Ginny had been walking out of the castle when she heard shrieks. She covered her ears for she was sure that the shrieks would burst her eardrums. She looked ahead of her to see the giant squid holidng onto a little girl. She also noticed that every Professor that taught her, and some that didn't, were standing near the squid and trying to get the girl down. Ginny smiled as she saw Snape try to reach for the child and the tentacle of the squid hit Snape across the chest, sending him flying backwards and hitting a tree. He had quickly stood up though, which caused Ginny to slightly frown, and went back to help. Eventually the Professors got the little girl down and as Ginny walked closer she saw that the girl was in Hufflepuff. She smiled at her, but frowned again as the girl just ran away from her shrieking. She shrugged to herself before giving each of the Professor a smile, except Snape of course whom she just glared at, as she passed.

She continued to walk, sighed as she realized that the Giant Squid incident might be the only exciting thing that would happen today. She spotted someone in the distance and as she walked closer, she saw that the person was Harry. She laughed slightly as she saw him wearing a wanna-be French artist's hat with a Griffindor symbol on it. Even though she wasn't a Muggle, she knew what a French Artist was since Ron had told her about it. You see, Ron had recently developed the skill of drawing and, though Ginny wouldn't admit it, she thought he was a pretty good artist. "Nice hat, Harry." She said with a smile as she walked over to him. "Mind if I sit?" She asked, swiping her long fiery red hair out of her face as the wind had started to blow a bit harder than the breeze it had recently been blowing only seconds before.

((OOC: You should remember this is the Marauder years the Trio years are in and the potions master is Slughorn. Snape is still a kid now. Just letting you know. You still have the right to glare since he can get alittle annoying too. ;D ))

Harry watched as Slughorn finally acheived getting the student down and still kept interest even after they had regrouped, taking the still freaking child back to the castle. Man she needs to sort out her priorities. He thought to himself, frowning as his fanclub made their way over to him and now Ginny. He smiled at her as she came up to him and smirked abit, liking how she always brought his mind off the insane fan girls. He liked the fact she did him such a favor, though he'd be much more happy if she'd say yes to him at the question of whether or not she'd go out with him. Now would have been the perfect time to ask her if one of the girls had not grabbed his hat out of his hands and hung it high in the air, tounge sticking out wildly. He glared at her headtedly and drew out his wand, carefull to throw a glance at the professors to make sure they were out of sight and ear shot. He then cast an Accio spell and the hat flew into his hand, obeying the spell cast by Harry.
"Come on Love we were only messing around. We'd give you abit of warning if you'd just say yes to me!"
"No to me!"
A girl from ravenclaw shouted.
"No to us!"
Two boys from Hufflepuff yelled.
Harry was about to cry as he saw the two boys, but they were now preoccupied with snogging the heck out of one another.
"Seems like you already have someone to be with, as do I."
He said and with that, grabbed Ginny's hand and held it for all of the dissappointed faces to see (Sorry for the bit of Godmoding. I'll make sure to punish myself harshly). His face flushed wildly with color and when they still were not convinced he leaned in and kissed her fully on her lucious lips. He had wanted this moment to happen ever since he could remember and only hoped she felt the same way about him as he did about her. Embarressed beyond compare, Harry pulled away after afew moments to see the group disbanning, leaving him even more embarressed than he already was. He couldn't look at Ginny, for that kiss had actually been him asking her out, but he wasn't sure if she'd be able to catch on. He liked, hell, loved her enough that she should have been able to.

Ginny glared at the fangirls as they walked over to Harry at about the same time as she herself had. She rolled her eyes at them as one of the stupid and idiotic fangirls grabbed Harry's hat, hanging it in the air with her tongue sticking out. She smiled slightly as Harry retrieved the hat back with the Accio spell. Nice job, Harry, she thought as she smiled at him.

A look of disgust passed across her face as saw the two gay guys kiss after telling Harry to say yes to them after they asked him out. Did they really think he was gay? She had been about to ask that, but the boys had started to snog each other. She stepped back slightly in disgust. She didn't have anything against gay people...she just thought it was a bit akward.

Ginny felt Harry grab her hand and she looked down at him, noticing his eyes were locked on hers and filled with love. She gasped slightly as he leaned in and kissed her, feeling goosebumps sprout on her arms and her stomach fill with butterflies. As he pulled away, she brought her hand to his cheek and leaned his face in more and kissed him again, loving the feel of his soft lips on her own. She had also waited for this moment from the first day she had met him. She had waited patiently and now that he had actually kissed her, she could hardly believe it. Was he asking her out? She thought he was and she nodded her head in response, a grin on her face. She was still gazing into his eyes, so lost in her thoughts about Harry that she didn't even notice the angry and enraged fangirls (and two guys) stalk off in anger.

[Harry Potter]

Harry could feel a grin spread across the lips that had been kissed softly by Ginny, who was now officially his girlfriend. The fanclub was watching them in utter disgust, most of them had taken to crying pathetically beside the lake while others comforted them and glared at the couple. All that didn't matter to Harry at the moment. It was just them, Harry and Ginny in front of a fully bloomed Cherry tree, such a romantic place for a first kiss. The playful grin remained as he brought her hand to his lips and kissed it softly, his eyes never leaving the lovely shade of brown born in her's. His own were filled with such love, love that he had been trying to get across to her ever since he found out he had feelings for her. She was a year younger, true, but did that truly matter? Did age in itself matter? She could be a third year and he could be a seventh year and he would still be in dire love with her.
He did'nt know what had come over him, having had these thoughts in his mind for as long as he could remember, but he loved the feeling. Even now his mind was swirling with thoughts, good, bad, he couldn't harm her, that was an answer to one of the questions in his mind.
"You're sure you'd want to go out with 'The famous Harry Potter'? Might stir abit of publicity for the both of us. I'm willing to risk it though, if only for you."
He said to her, knowing Rita Skeeter, the foulest woman on the planet would just have an immense field day with this. He shoved the thought and any other from the vileness of the woman, thus putting his thoughts on Ginny only.

[ginny]

"Harry, I could care less about what other people think." Ginny answered, her face lighted with a grin as she looked down at him. She sat next to him, immensely enjoying the sour looks she was getting from the fangroup. She was glad they were sad. She had Harry all to herself. Nobody could come between them and she smiled at that thought. Not even Rita Skeeter, whom she knew would be on the news of her and Harry faster than you could say 'Quidditch.'

She continued to just smile at Harry as she leaned in for another kiss, everyone and everything disappearing as she just imagined her and Harry, alone in the world together, if that made any sense. She was glad that Harry was her official boyfriend. Oh, how long she had waited and wanted to be able to think or say that. She now wished she could go up to the top of a mountain and shout 'HARRY POTTER IS MY BOYFRIEND!' for all of the world to hear. She continued to stare intently at Harry, her light brown eyes locked on his brilliant green ones.

[Harry Potter]

He himself wanted to scream that he was going out with the most beautiful gal in the whole school. He smiled broadly in the middle of the kiss for he couldn't contain his happiness for the both of them. He looked into her eyes as well, his own reflecting their immense love for one another. He had felt this way the day he had laid eyes on her that day he had come to the burrow. He kissed her back, fully and passionately. His tounge had longed to tangle with hers, a fantasy he had going through his mind forever. His tounge licked her bottom lip as asking permission to enter longingly. He wanted to be able to give her everything he could, no matter what the cost. He took his hands, placing them in hers as he lengthened the passionate moment, content to dying in her arms, right here, right now. He wanted her to know how much he was in love with her so he moved abit so he was a couple inches from her chest, his own almost pressed with hers. He grinned playfully, his eyes reflecting this personality wonderfully, as if they had known each other forever. If he was moving too fast, he'd ask her, which was what he was going to do right now.
"If I'm moving too fast, let me know sweetheart."
He told her cutely. He found his hands placed upon her hips to better his stance as they sat on the ground together. In his mind, he wanted to move to the castle for a better place to be together, but it was entirely up to her.
"If you want to, we can move to the castle."
He told her.

[ginny]

Ginny kissed Harry back, her immense love for him pouring out of her and into him. As Harry's toungue licked her bottom lip, she opened her mouth a bit, as if signalling that his toungue could enter. It quickly entered her mouth, her own toungue massaging his. She pulled away after a moment and smiled at him, her eyes shining with happiness and love. She shook her head as a response after hearing his question if he was moving to fast. She then heard his proposal of going into the castle and nodded, grabbing his hand and entwining their fingers, before standing up, bringing him with her. Her and Harry then started to stroll back up to the castle, their hands still linked.
