The Break Up

"Ginny, can I have a word!" Draco said to Ginny as he pulled her to the side. "Ginny, I am sorry, but I think our relationship is going no where. I think it would be best if we… broke up."

Ginny opened her mouth several times, but then closed it. Draco could see the tears forming behind her beautiful brown eyes.

"Ginny I am sorry!" Draco said.

Ginny turned around and ran to the common room where she saw Ron, Hermione and Harry. Ginny stopped on the spot. She quickly put her head down so they couldn't see her tears, but she was to late.

"Ginny what is wrong?" Hermione stated as she, Ron, and Harry walked up toward her.

"I… It's nothing. I just hurt my… arm. That's it my arm." Ginny explained while not looking into their eyes.

"Ginny… you expect us to believe that." Ron said without thinking.

Ginny rapidly turned and ran up to the girl's dormitory. Hermione turned to Harry and Ron.

"I'll go talk to her. Ok." Hermione said and then turned around and left. Hermione walked up the stairs and headed toward Ginny's bed. Ginny was lying on her stomach with her face in her pillow.

"Ginny what is REALLY wrong with you. An I know it's not your arm." Hermione said while patting her on the back.

"It's… It's Draco! We… We broke up!" Ginny explained while a flood of tears came flowing down her face.

At this Hermione was in shock. She took a few steps back sat on the nearest bed. "You two… You and Draco… were… DATING! What would make you date DRACO! I mean it's… DRACO! The person who always makes fun of your family and ME! You are…" Hermione didn't get to finish her sentence. Ginny had put her head back to her pillow and cried even louder.

"I know he did that, but he is different. You just need to get to know him like I do." Ginny said.

Hermione could barely hear Ginny talk cause of the fact that her head was still in her pillow. "I am sorry I didn't realize that he was so important to you. Well… How long have two been dating?"

"For about two years. We started dating in my second year and in his third year. I love him, Hermione." Ginny said in a whisper.

Hermione stared at Ginny for the longest of times. She didn't know what to say to make her feel better. "Do you want me to tell Ron or Harry about this."

It took a while for Ginny to answer. "No. Say nothing to them about any of this. Tell them that I … tell them something, anything. "
