Ginny looked across the Gryffindor Common Room at Hermione. 'Why can't I be more like her?' she thought. Hermione had everything. The body. The boys. The grades. The reputation. Ginny wanted all of that, too. Sure, she, at 14, had the grades and the body, but what about the other two? Ginny wanted it all. She decided to ask Hermione how she did it. Ginny got up.

"Hey, Hermione," Ginny casually said, sitting down next to Hermione.

"Hey, Ginny. What's up?" Hermione replied, barely looking up from her studies.

"I was wondering…how do you get guys?" Ginny asked her closest friend. Hermione looked up, a bit startled.

"Guys? Well, it's actually quite easy. When I came back after summer, I wore makeup, shorter skirts, well-fitted tops and such. But that's not all there is to it, either. You have to flirt, be outgoing, and sometimes agree to things you really don't. You follow what I'm saying?" Hermione told her all at once.

"Wow," Ginny said. "I guess it isn't as easy as I thought."

"But the hardest part," Hermione told her, "is building your rep. You need to sleep with guys, too Ginny." Ginny was taken aback. "Yea…but it's not that bad. Trust me. Just don't overdo it, okay?" Hermione said. "Well, I'm off to bed. Goodnight!"

"Goodnight!" Ginny called back. But her mind was already somewhere else…thinking of a plan.

Ginny had figured everything out by the next morning. The next Hogsmeade weekend was in two days. She would take all of her savings and buy clothes, makeup, and whatever else she may need. Ginny was on her way to the Great Hall for breakfast when someone slammed her against a wall.

"Good morning, Weaselette," a cold, drawling voice said, inches away from her face.

"Ugh! Let me go, Malfoy!" Ginny yelled, trying to get away. But he was too strong.

"Now why would I do something like that? The rumor is you're thinking of following Granger's footsteps. I'm not complaining. It's about time you showed off what you have," he whispered in her ear.

"Get off me! I'm looked for guys who haven't fucked her, okay?" Ginny told him.

"But you see, I haven't fucked her. But I might think about you," he whispered.

"What makes you think that I'm about to just let you hit me?"

"This," he said, crushing his mouth down on hers. When she didn't open her mouth, he bit her lip. Ginny gasped, and he practically shoved his tongue down her throat.

"Get off me!" Ginny yelled, pushing him away.

"Fine. But don't think I'm going to stay away for long," Malfoy said as he disappeared down the hallway. Ginny wiped her mouth and went to get her breakfast. She couldn't believe it. Malfoy! She had just snogged Malfoy! She couldn't think of anything worse.
