When she notice him look away she did the same. As they kept on walking around, most likely with no idea where they were going, Ginny began to let her mind wander. Mostly to her friends, family, home in general and a couple other things.

Harry looked around, trying to think of something to say as it had suddenly grown quiet between them. After walking for a while, Harry didn't quite know how far they'd strayed from the house but he hadn't been this far yet. "Do you hear that?" he asked her, his eyes darting around at every sound. Maybe he was mistaken but it sounded like there were people around.

Ginny slowed down her pace as she also began to listen. "Yeah... I think I do." She said looking around, trying to find where the noises were coming from. It sounded like people talking, but she couldn't have been positive about that. Without thinking she started walking forward slowly and stopped infront of a large fern. She moved one of the leaves and saw a few people.

Harry followed behind Ginny and looked over her shoulder. He made a "Hmm" sound as he looked at them curiously. He didn't know why he had expected the island to be uninhabited but he had. He wondered if anyone else knew...

Ginny remembered already meeting one of the people on the island and then remembered how she had said there were a couple more people. She looked closely but didn't see Kristanna as she began looking for her. "Wonder how long they've been here." She said quietly, more so thinking outloud.

Harry nodded. "By the looks of it, there used to be alot of people here," he said, thinking about the docks. "I didn't think about it before but it was so obvious. There had to be people here." He found himself wondering again how Dumbledore'd stumbled upon this place. Did he know any of these people?

She nodded. "That does make sense. Have you met any of them yet?" She asked turning her head to look at him then looked back at the people. After a few minutes she stood up and walked a few steps away from the ferns they had been hiding behind.

Harry shook his head, still watching when she got up. When he noticed that she'd moved, he followed her. "No," he said, "I haven't even seen them until now. Have you?"

She nodded. "I met one girl her name was Kristanna. She seemed really nice and everything, although she kept asking me questions." She said rolling her eyes.

Harry smiled and shrugged. "Maybe she's never been away from the island," he suggested. "If not then she probably would be a bit curious. What kinds of questions was she asking?"

"First few were about why I was wearing what I was, where I was from, how many others there were... well technically if there were others. Then when I told her I was related to Ron, because I guess she had met him before meeting me, she asked about my family. Well actually I told her and we had a conversation about them." She shrugged.

Harry nodded. "I wonder how long it's been since someone new came here," he said, thinking of the what he had seen so far. It all looked functional enough but not like they had been used too often. The whole situation was curious, really.

She shrugged and looked around. "I remember talking to Hermione and hearing her say she met some guy. He recently came to the island I believe. Not too recently though... months." She shrugged. Ginny looked back over at Harry and remember some of the stuff she and Hermione had talked about. Not being able to help it she started laughing. Then turned her back toward him so she would be able to stop laughing easier.

Harry gave her a sideways glance. "What?" he asked her suspiciously. He thought for a moment about what Hermione had said about dating an islander... maybe that was the same guy. Either way, it seemed too soon to him. Hermione usually thought things through clearly but she also didn't usually act like she had been when they were swimming so he wasn't sure if she was being as level-headed as she normally was.

Ginny stopped laughing, "It's nothing." She then turned back around to look at him but as soon as she did she started laughing again and turned back around. "Sorry," She said still laughing a little, "it's really nothing." After she stopped laughing again she stayed the same way she was already facing.
