Rating- T (due to bad language) if I think the rating should change in later chapters I will let you know at the top!
DISCLAIMER- Sadly I do not own the characters or the settings, and the vague idea for my story started after reading a few Hp fics using therapy for characters. But I believe using music is all my idea!
~~~In this story Draco is in his sixth year and Ginny is in her fifth. ~~~
Enjoy!!!

Chapter 1
It would be fair to say that Ginevra. M Weasley was startled. How could a day have started so well and ended so badly in the headmaster's office. She new she was in trouble because as Dumbledore looked at her the usual sparkle in his eyes was defiantly absent.
The day had started normally, she had got up, washed and dressed met with Colin in the common room and they had talked and joked down to breakfast as usual. This is then where the day started to take a turn for the worst. She had received a letter from her mother stating she must stay at Hogwarts for Christmas as it was too dangerous to come due to the deatheaters. For Ginny this was a great disappointment as she had really been looking forward to seeing her family again, especially the twins. Feeling disappointed and angry at the stupid deatheaters Ginny headed towards her first lesson of the day- double potions with the Slytherins- in a very bad mood.
Her temper only increased when stupid, bitchy Martha Tappers had waltzed into the classroom gloating over a holiday in an ice palace with her parents at Christmas. This had wound Ginny up so much that she hadn't realised she had stirred her potion anti-clockwise twice, rather than once clockwise and half a turn anti-clockwise, that her potion was bubbling dangerous and had started emitting purple smoke rings, which in turn caught Snape's attention. He had swooped over and he had sneered at the now sticky gloop in the bottom of her cauldron, before giving her an extra four inches to write in her essay about the uses of Amorat roots and where to find them.
When the bell had rung she swept out of the classroom and stalked to the library to start her essay.
By lunch she was majorly cranky, she had been inside all day, had very little to eat (due to missing break) and still had loads of her essay to write. She sat moodily through lunch, ignoring the trio when they asked her what was wrong-Ron suggesting too loudly that he suspected PMT, when he turned back to the other two thinking Ginny couldn't hear him, causing Potter to smirk- and carried on eating.
In the afternoon she had divination where the class were interpreting dreams and Luna continued to predict a soon and very painful demise for Ginny, which only served to darken her mood.
So it seemed fitting that by dinner all se wanted was to eat and go to bed, forgetting the whole miserable day had ever happened.
Unfortunately as she was leaving the hall she walked into something very solid, this very solid thing turned out to be none other than the pompous and exceedingly annoying Draco-effing-Malfoy, his arrogant face spread into his infamous smirk.
"Watch where you are going Weaslette" an arrogant sneer in his voice
Pansy who had been standing next to him cackled in delight at her humiliation. Draco ignored her and looked at her with a smirk picking an imaginary piece of lint of his shoulder. "Now I'll have to burn these robes to get your filthy blood-traitor germs off of them now they've been contaminated by you!"
"Oh shove off Malfoy, go piss off someone else!" she growled and then barged past him. A hand grabbed her arm and yanked her around painfully.
"Excuse me!? I think you owe me an apology, or do I need to teach you some manners, huh, Weaslette?"
At his last comment Ginny just snapped, all she wanted was to go to bed for Gods sake and now this arrogant arse was standing in her way. "Just move Malfoy before I hex you to the hospital wing in a match box" Drawing her wand and pointing it straight at his chest.
"Oh, just try it Weasel." He growled moving forward with a swift predatory step, drawing his wand at pointing it at her neck.
"Stupefy" She cried a flash of red light shooting out of her wand, he leaped to the side, and glared at her, his eyes flashing dangerously.
"Incendio" Flames shot of his wand straight at her face, Ginny dropped to the ground in a crouch, aware of the crowd they were gathering. She kicked her leg out striking him hard in the knee making him fall to the floor. Snarling he leapt at her straddling her hips with his legs and wrapping his hands around her throat
"You foolish little girl, thinking you could beat me"
Struggling for air Ginny thrust her hip left and rolling her body she managed to roll Malfoy off her, his hands loosening their grip in surprise. They both sprung to their feet. Their faces twisted into similar expressions of hate and anger, circling each other searching for gaps in the others defence. Malfoy feinted to the left but Ginny turned and covered her undefended spot. Finally exasperated at the same time they both stepped back pointed their wands at the others heart and yelled
"CRUCIO" two identical jets of red light shot out of their wands and collided in a firework of red sparks straight in the middle of each other. The spell combined and they both fought for control over it, people in the hall shrieked and yelled in the hall as they watched the display. But they couldn't hear it. Ginny was staring into his hard grey eyes, horrified that they had both used an unforgivable on each other. She could feel the spell sucking power from her and she really wasn't sure how much longer she was going to last. And from the glint in Malfoy's eye he had just realised the same thing.
"ENOUGH!" a voice bellowed from the hall, Dumbledore stood in the entrance of the Great Hall staring at the fight in horror and shame. He strode forward and the students moved for him like the red sea, he pointed his wand where the two beams of light joined and streak of blue light came from his wand and engulfed the red beams.
Ginny and Draco staggered back as the power of the curse was lifted, both of them collapsing to the floor, due to the amount of magic that had been taken from them. Draco was the first to rise; he looked down at Ginny with disgust. Ginny glowered back at him before rising to her feet, waiting for the entrance hall to stop spinning.
"Both of you come with me" said Dumbledore his voice a scary calm.
And that was how Ginny's day had gone so wrong, stupid Malfoy was talking at the moment, protesting his innocence but Ginny had the feeling Dumbledore wasn't listening to him.
"So you see sir I was protecting myself from her violent attack" Malfoy concluded. Ginny stared at him as if was delusional.
"That doesn't really help Draco you still used an unforgivable on another student and that will not be permitted!" Said Dumbledore "Now I don't want to have to expel either of you so I will discuss with your respective Heads of House and your parents, to come up with a suitable punishment for both of you. I suggest until then you avoid each other and go to your beds and sleep it off."
Draco Malfoy immediately rose and swept out of the room, muttering how his father would be proud. Ginny glared after him and then turned to Dumbledore to apologise for her behaviour before leaving and heading towards her dorm, prepared for a barrage of questions.
