I feel somewhat confident that I've gone down a mostly untravelled path with the pairing in this story, but I'll leave it for a bit of a surprise. This is my first challenge story. I've got 4 of the 5 bonus phrases in here, though I've waved the white flag on the cake description. Hope you enjoy it!

Post-HBP *Spoiler warning*Suddenly a loud bang sounded from across the garden and some Weasleys’ Wildfire Whizbangs lighted up the sky, but before Harry could admire them, a second loudest bang sounded. The cake had exploded.

This was brillant! I loved it and enjoyed it very much. One mention - Jo states that Harry is just Harry not Harold. ;)

Author's Response: Thanks a ton for that tip - I'll try and remember to change that! :D Yours truly, Amelia Bedelia

A cheeky response to the now resolved dispute with SIYE. This story combines both challenges criteria, using all bonus phrases and situations to meet both. For the 2500 word max SIYE one, I tried my hand at humour for the very first time, but angst, my first love got the better of me for the latter half, ending finally in humour. If you read the first part from SIYE, as I have said, I have swished and flicked and changed a few words for wt, and it is now a seventh year fic.(SIYE had to be pre HBP containing no spoilers, so I worked hard at this) The birthday bash which appears only at wt now is my first attempt at a little something past a G rating. I use challenges to spread my wings a little, not to win.
The real summary: Ginny and Harry take Polyjuice so that Harry can sneak out with Ron to a Quidditch match. Ginny stays at the Dursleys disguised as Harry. Each of them realize how hard it is to be a male/female based on their experiences. Part two of the same chapter becomes angsty as Harry tries to undo some of the 'favours' Ginny has done for him at the Dursleys. Harry is beaten and is rescued from the Dursleys and the twins find an amusing way to cheer him up as his birthday approaches. When I say I wrote this to be 'cheeky' wait 'til you see the cake!! Cheeky alright!
