FreezingFire81- I am glad you loved it

foxgodess07- I am not exactly sure if it will or will not end badly, but I like the idea of Draco getting his butt kicked. Thanks for the alert I hope you enjoy how I make the story progress.


Things get worse before they get better

And when they do, remember who pushed you down,

And who helped you back up.


I believe that two people are
connected at the heart. And it
doesnt matter what you do,
or who you are, or where you
live; there are no boundries or
barriers. If two people are destined
to be together.. they will be


November 3

Ginny sat in potions class, not really caring what was going on. Ever since Slughorn started working as the Potions Master she didn't need to try as hard. Everyone knew that he favored some special people; and that Ginny was one of those special people. Although she always did well at brewing assignments and deserved every grade she got in the class, she tended to tune out whenever Professor Slughorn started to lecture.

"Now, since last class we started working on antidotes for poisons, I thought we would continue with antidotes but for animal attacks. On page 311 you will find the recipe for a cure to a magical snake bite. You may use the rest of the time to brew the potion. After you are finished please leave me a vile of your brew on my desk with your name on it. After that you may leave. Now begin."

Ginny opened her book and looked at the potion. It seemed simple enough. She should have it done within the hour. She gathered her ingredients and noticed she was missing one.

"Hey Luna do you have any valerian root left I'm all out?"

"Ya, here you go." Said Luna Lovegood, also known as Loony Lovegood to most of the school, but not to Ginny, Luna was Ginny's best friend and she could tell Luna anything.

"I love how easy this course has gotten since Slughorn took over." Said Luna as she worked, "It is so much easier than when Snape was teaching."

"Tell me about it." Replied Ginny.

"So how are you doing Ginny."

"I am okay Luna."

"Are you sure? You had a tough day yesterday. Do you want to talk about it?"

"Not here. I do not need everyone listening in to my private love life. After class?"

"Sure." They finished their potions in silence and left class as quickly as they could.

Ginny and Luna walked quietly to the fourth floor. They walked to a very special place; a place only they knew about. A place all their own. In their second year, Luna usually kept to herself, wondering the castle looking for anything mysterious. When one day she came upon a room hidden behind a bookshelf. She used it whenever she needed it. For studying or just for being alone. It was perfect for a girl who wasn't always welcome in her own common room. When Luna started gaining a close relationship with Ginny, she showed Ginny her special place. It was always perfect when the two had to talk about something important.

When they finally reached their destination, they pulled on the book 'Tales of a Dragon' and a large doorway appeared. They walked into the beautiful room and sealed the door. As Ginny looked around she saw the familiar room in all of its magic. It was set up like a small sitting room. It had a large cushy couch and two inviting chairs. They were all set up around a beautiful fireplace that Ginny could probably stand up in. The celing was enchanted just like the Great Hall and the colors of the room were maroon and gold. This made the girls believe that Godric Gryffindor had made this room himself.

"So what is up Gin?" Luna asked as she sat down on the couch and Ginny sat next to her.

"Harry's gone."

"I know that Ginny. I meant how are you dealing with it?"

"Surprisingly well." Ginny said with a smile, "I realized something after he broke up with me."

"What is that?"

"He was keeping me from falling in love with other guys. When I was in relationships with other guys before I started dating Harry, he was still always on my mind. He would show interest in me but would never make a move. So when I was with other guys I would always think 'should I move forward or wait for Harry?' and my answer was always the same; I waited."

"That makes sense I guess." Luna answered. "You always seemed to be waiting for him."

"Exactly. And you know what?"

"What?"

"I am sick of waiting. He made me wait for so long and when things get a little rough he pushes me away. I want a guy who wants to pull me closer when things are going wrong in his life. That the guy I want."

"And you deserve him Ginny. But Harry is under so much stress. Maybe after all of this war stuff is through he will not push you away anymore."

"But I do not want to wait anymore. I waited throughout my entire school career and I am sick of it. We do not even know how long it is going to be until the war is finally over. A year? Two years? Maybe it will be even longer than that. And I am not going to wait that long to fall in love."

"Are you saying you were not in love with Harry."

"He never gave me the chance to see if I could fall in love with him."

"I see."

"Luna, may I ask you a question?"

"Of course Ginny."

"Do you believe in soul mates?"

"Yes actually I do."

"Well I realized yesterday that Harry is not mine."

"And how did you come to this conclusion?"

"Do you really think it should be this hard to have happiness with your soul mate?"

"No probably not."

"Exactly. I understand there will be complications and fights in a relationship. But I do not think it should take years on end for a relationship to finally work out."

"It makes sense Ginny."

"My real soul mate is out there somewhere. And I am going to find him. And I do know one thing."

"What is that?"

"He is going to be like nothing I ever expected to fall in love with. And that is what is going to make him perfect for me."
