Once lunch was done the afternoon classes and dinner seemed to pass by in a blur and soon enough, before anyone knew it, it was the designated time for Gryffindor quidditch practice.
As Harry and Ron headed down to the quidditch pitch, Hermione having opted for doing more research in the library, the two discussed how after practice, once everyone else except for Harry and Ginny had left, Harry was going to bring Ginny down to the edge of the lake to watch what was to be the most beautiful sunset of the year. Once they reached the pitch, a few minutes later, they noticed that the rest of the team was already there and ready to go, which made it easier to start practice immediately and get it done quickly.
Practice, for the most part, went down without a hitch, except for a few minor mistakes here and there, and as soon as it was over everyone, except for Harry and Ginny, who Harry had asked to stay after practice, headed back up to the castle.
"Why did you ask me to stay after practice, Harry?" Ginny looked at Harry, multiple questions being asked in her beautiful expressive eyes.
"That's a surprise that you'll find out soon enough," Harry said as he gently took a hold of Ginny's hand and led her down towards the lake.
Once they reached the edge of the lake they both sat down on a blanket that had been laid out, and prepared, earlier in the day. They then began to get comfortable, both of them sitting side-by-side on the blanket with their hands intertwined. As they sat there they stared lovingly into each other's eyes for what seemed like an eternity.
After a few minutes of staring, what felt to them like an eternity, Harry took his gaze away from Ginny's beautiful eyes and briefly glanced down at his watch, smiling when he saw what time it was. "Now look up at the sky, Ginny, for your surprise," he said turning his gaze back to see her reaction.
