... his, and she felt herself kissing him back. She suddenly realized what people meant when they talked about fireworks going off. The ones in her mind were closer to Fred and George's impressive displays. Harry pulled back after a few moments, looking uncertain. He almost looked like he wanted to apologize, but didn't get a chance when Ginny leaned forward, going in for a second kiss. It was still just as chaste, but something happened between the two. Ginny felt something within her respond to Harry's presence, and somehow, she knew it was her magic. When they separated this time, Harry looked slightly dazed. "Did you feel that?" he asked curiously. Ginny pondered what she had experienced. "Like a pulling sensation in my chest?" Harry nodded.

Harry leaned down and gave Ginny a last goodnight kiss, and watched as she ascended the staircase, noting with interest that the strange rope between them stretched a bit, thinning slightly, but it didn't vanish. When she had disappeared into her dormitory, Harry finally returned to his. Sleep came much easier this time around. XXX The next day was both a trial, and much easier than he could have expected. Harry met Ginny in the common room for breakfast, and was able to give her a good morning kiss before the rest of their friends showed up. Hermione looked at them, assessing, but fortunately, neither Neville nor Ron seemed awake enough to notice anything. Cedric and Susan had apparently gotten to all the Hufflepuffs the night before, and further gave him their backing when the two of them approached Harry at breakfast and publically announced their support.
