Disclaimer: I do not own the HP series in any way

However, I truly am sorry times infinity. I haven't uploaded in well over a month and I know you loyal readers may be upset with me. Free free to mentally point a shame finger at me.

I truly am sorry I couldn't get this chapter up sonner. Blame writers block. But that isn't entirely to blame, OI have been a bit lazy, and I know that's not an excuse. But next time,hopefully, you won't have to wait for month for the next chapter to be up.

This may not be the best or longest chapter, but at least you get to read it right?

Without further ado:

Chapter 12- The Plan


DRACO POV

I was walking through corridors of Hogwarts when a door slammed open and out came Ginny. She was crying. I run up to her and lightly touch her shoulders. Without warning, she punches my face. "Oww! What the hell are you doing? You seriously are crazy." "Serves you right Thomas! Don't think that you coming after me, changes anything. Just go back to your slag." "What are you on about Ginny? What slag?" "Don't play dumb with me." She suddenly turns around and gasps in shock. "O my gosh. I'm so sorry Draco. I thought you were that disgusting git Dean," she sniffled. " Shouldn't you recognise my face by now and well, maybe, you shouldn't go around punching people when you feel like it." "I just told you—you know what never mind. Leave me to wallow in my misery."

"Wait, what happened?" "Oh, just the fact that Dean cheated on me with one of friends. I just caught them 'doing it'. I now know that all this time he has been lying to me. I should've seen this one coming. I was so stupid!" She starts sobbing uncontrollably. I pull her to me and comfort her. "You weren't stupid; he was. He just lost something incredible. He was too stupid to see just how amazing you are; he should have known that right at the start. Any guy would be lucky to have you Gin." She sniffles and says, "You really think so?"

"I know so."

"Is that Thomas guy still there?" "I think so." "Good." With that, I walked over to the classroom where he and the Parvati girl was and slammed the door open. Ginny comes inside following behind me. They are only just changing their clothes. "Hey Thomas, you prick! Yeah, I'm talking to you, asshole." I walk over to him and tackle him to the ground, punching the daylights out of him. She tries to pull me off of him and I hear Ginny screaming, "No, stop!" I listen to her and get off of him. "You know Thomas, if Ginny was here to stop me, I would have gladly sent your grave. Don't you ever go near her. You hear me? Never!" I leave him on the floor and take Ginny by the hand and leave the classroom.

"You didn't have to do that." "He bloody well deserved that. That stupid prick." "No, seriously, you shouldn't have done it because now Dean is going to tell other people what you did to him. They'll be wondering why you stood up for me in the first place. Don't you remember that we are supposed to hate each other? Now everyone in the whole school is going to talk about it. They'll talk about it for days on end. Don't you care?"

"I can't believe I've been so stupid. I let my anger get ahead of me. But you know what Ginny? I don't regret it because he deserved it. He wasn't supposed to do that." "I'm aware of that Draco. But don't you realise what will happen? Everyone will know." And that's when it hit me, if this news reached my father, I'll be a dead man.

"Don't worry Ginny. I've got a plan."


GINNY POV

"No, no, no and no! They need to know what Parvati and Dean did to me." "Come on Ginny, nobody really needs to know that. If they ask why you two broke up, just say that you've grown apart and stuff like that. You can't risk that-" "But-" "No 'buts'. It's not a solid plan, but it'll work. If you don't tell your Gryffindor pals what he and Patil did to you then he won't tell his pals what I did to him. It's simple." "It's not that simple. If he can go around sneaking behind my back shagging whomever he pleases then we don't know who we're dealing with." "Darling, he doesn't know who he's dealing with. Don't you worry, I got this." "What are you going to do then?" "I'm going to threaten him with telling the whole school about what he did. I'm going to compromise with him and say that, "if you don't tell then I won't tell." "You can do better than that." "What do you have in mind?" "You're not going to like it." "Well, I'll be expecting the worst then, now won't I?" "You got that right. Oh, I don't know if I should even mention it." "Stop beating around the bush, just tell me."

"The Unforgivable Curse…"

"I didn't know that you had any Slytherin in you. That is a very Slytherin-like thing to say. As much as I would like to, we can't." "Well why the hell not? He deserves it." "You think if he accidently lets it slips that I stood up for you, he'll die and you'll let it happen?" "Very much so." "Ginny we can't. If he dies then it' his blood on your hands, not mine."

I don't know what I'm thinking doing the Unforgivable Curse. I don't know what's gotten into me and I don't like it. Sure I'm mad, but to even mention is so not Ginny- like. "Fine then we won't use it. But we can at least threaten him with it." He considers this for a while and finally agrees. "Ginny, I really don't know why you brought up that curse anyway. Why did you?" "I really don't know Draco. I really don't know. It's probably my anger talking or something."

"Yeah, probably."


I'm sorry it isn't as long as I hoped and you hoped.

But, how was it?

Review please. *puppy dog eyes*

Lots of Love.
