'I think she's going to tell him the truth.' – Ginny

'I'm not going to lie to you, the fact that your father wants me dead scares me but your father is nothing compared to these feeling that I have for you. We can do this…' – Hermione
'But…' – Draco
'But like it or not your father is a real problem and we need to do something about him first.' – Hermione

'Okay Gin, I just saw Malfoy and Hermione and they definitely did not look broken up.' – Ron
'What do you mean?' – Harry
