Chapter one
Happy Ending
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
Ginny looked at Harry, shaking her red hair out of her face.
"What's so important, Harry? I'm trying to win this game. Or do you like getting bludgeoned to death?" She asked somewhat breathlessly.
"Yeah, uh," he dodged a Bludger and followed her as she streaked off to rescue her brother, his Firebolt effortlessly keeping up with her Comet. "I don't think we should stay together."
Ginny whipped her head around to stare at him, her wet hair flying.
Let's talk this over
It's not like we're dead
For a moment Ginny just stared at him. "Harry-"
"Shit, I knew I should have waited till after the meet." Harry started to turn away, but Ginny grabbed his shoulder.
"No, Harry, we're gonna talk about this now."
"We don't really have the time."
"What are you worried about? Malfoy's got a Nimbus. He's no match for you. Why do you want to break up?"
Was it something I did?
Was it something you said?
Don't leave me hanging
In a city so dead
Held up so high
On such a breakable thread
"Well we don't really get on all that well-"
"I thought I knew you Harry."
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
"Ginny please don't be that way-"
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
"Harry, you were everything I tried to be. You thought it was too dangerous, so I didn't go, even though it broke my heart when you did. You were brave. My first year...Well I suppose that's when you really liked me. When I was that helpless little girl in the Chamber. Then I started thinking for myself, started learning all of your tricks. Got a few of my own as well. You remember the girl that Tom Riddle fooled. Well she grew up. Don't think I don't know what Hermione and Ron say to you."
You've got your dumb friends
I know what they say
"That I talk in my sleep about things yet to pass. Really freaked you when I started to see them when I was around you didn't it? Did it really bother you that I was that different?"
They tell you I'm difficult
But so are they
"But that's another thing, Harry, I may see things I never tell about, but there's a hell of a lot no one knows about you. But that's ok, isn't it? It's ok for the Boy Who Lived to have secret, but god forbid anyone else does. I've seen a lot of stuff about you and not all of it was good."
But they don't know me
Do they even know you?
All the things you hide from me
All the shit that you do
"Uh, Ginny-"
"Shut up! You aren't what I knew and you aren't what I want! So I don't really know what I want, but I know it's not someone like you who will try and stop me from seeing."
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
"Ginny, watch out!"
Ginny turned in time to see the Bludger as it hit her left arm. She bit back a scream as the Bludger came at her again. She ducked and it hit her broom instead.
It's nice to know that you were there
Thanks for acting like you cared
And making me feel like I was the only one
It's nice to know we had it all
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done
Ginny watched the sky and Harry fall away as she fell. She was awfully high up and falling at an alarming rate. Harry started after her, but then saw the Snitch and one could see the indecision on his face before Seamus, the captain, yelled at him to get the Snitch.
Ginny really felt that she couldn't blame him. Seamus was a real jerk when they lost. A green and silver streak caught her eye and suddenly she was being cradled in the arms of the Slytherin seeker. He landed as Harry; nearly fifty feet above caught the Snitch. For a moment her brown gold eyes met his silver grey ones and she opened her mouth to say something.
But what she was to say would have to wait, for at that moment the entire Gryffindor team landed, led by Ron and Malfoy passed her off to Madam Pomprey whilst her brother had to be restrained by the majority of the team.
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
Ron watched in a sort of horror as his only sister fell. There was nothing he could do. His Comet was too slow to catch her before she hit the ground.
Then, faster then he would have thought possible, his sister was being cradled in the arms of a SLYTHERIN! As if that wasn't bad enough, NO! It had to be MALFOY!
