Oh dear :( Really should have found my copy of GoF before writing, 
but it is sadly hidden behind my stack of cds and I did not want to 
disturb them just to check on which pairing it was. The possiblity 
for having a pile of cds to sort was too high!

They do seem to spend a lot of time together... Though some people 
spend more time wondering what was/is going on between Ginny and 
Hermione for Ginny to know Hermione's Yule Ball plans...
