A/N: Okay okay okay. So I didn't hold true to the whole one week thing. But that's only because my internet went down for almost a whole week and then I went traveling to New Orleans. It was awesome. Anyway, I hope you like this chapter! It is soooooooo short. You should review to help encourage me to write longer chapters.
Chapter 10: The Trouble with Exes
Publicity.
That's what Ginny and Draco had now chosen.
Another week of camp had flown by, and at the end of it, Ginny and Draco decided to go public with their relationship. But not, of course, before Ginny had told Hermione about it in advance.
Ada had kept the secret flawlessly; not a word had been uttered to anyone. But now they were ready to tell everyone about the formerly secret relationship between them.
Draco seemed to have a large sense of pride in the relationship. It was he that decided to stand up from his table in the middle of dinner and shout it out to everyone. Ginny was really very proud of him. He was opening up to the world quite well.
Of course, Pansy Parkinson didn't take the news exceptionally well. After Draco's very loud, very public declaration of love for Ginny, she immediately began to bawl her eyes out of their sockets until Snape was forced to escort her out of the dining hall building. He came back in a few short seconds later, laughing. Or, as close to laughing as Snape could get. Ginny guessed that even he, too, held a vibrant hate for the girl. Everyone did.
Now, it was Sunday evening, and Draco and Ginny were walking behind the campers back up Cabin Path. It was the same night that they had gone public with their relationship.
After assuring that the campers from Cabins 13 and 14 were safely in their cabins, the couple walked down to Cabin 10 to say 'hello' to Hermione.
However, they were interrupted by something hilarious, yet disturbing.
Pansy Parkinson inched out from behind a tree, connected at the lip with Michael Corner. They had their arms around each other and were kissing fiercely. Pansy, upon seeing Draco and Ginny staring at her and Michael, only deepened the kiss. So there they were, Draco and Ginny stunned, watching their exes make out.
And what was the purpose of all this?
Draco let out a big sigh and then began to laugh. Ginny didn't know quite what was amusing. Surprising, stupid, and retarded, maybe, but not funny.
"Draco."
He just kept on laughing.
"Draco," Ginny repeated.
"What?" he asked airily.
"Er…what's funny?"
Pansy and Michael continued to make out fiercely, but had opened their eyes to watch the conversation.
"Don't you see Ginny?" Draco responded.
"Um…no. No, not exactly."
He leaned closer to the red-haired girl and whispered, "They're trying to make us jealous."
"Ooooohhhh. Well. It's not working, and it's a…thoroughly flawed plan. What made them think this would work?" Ginny wondered.
"I'm not sure," Draco answered her, "but then again, I don't have a brain the size of a pea, like they do."
Ginny laughed, and the two continued on their way to Hermione's cabin, hand-in-hand, undisturbed by the previous scene.
"That's the trouble with exes," Draco remarked. "They never know how to get you back."
So that's it! Painfully short, I know. But I'm kinda lacking inspiration right now. I'm going to end the storyin a matter of chapters. There will probably only a maximum of three left. Anyway, please please please REVIEW! Thanks sooo much!
