Harry opened the door the hospital wing, yawning. He hadn't been able

to sleep, so far away from Ginny. His head snapped up as he heard

noises from behind the curtain. He raced in, not daring to believe it,

and saw...


"MALFOY! You bastard, get out of here before I get Dumbledore!"

snarled Harry. Ginny shook her head.


"Harry, Harry, Harry. Always looking for someone else to do your work.

Well, now Draco's done some work for you too. He paid attention to

me. You have no idea how long I pined for you." Harry stared at her

in disbelief"


"I knew you had a crush on me, but you didn't...you couldn't have...you

never..." he stammered over his words. Ginny shook her head again,

looking at him with disdain.


"You never knew, did you Harry? Too busy with Quidditch, and being the

famous wizard, even though you didn't do anything! You never knew the

real reason I jumped. You didn't know...Harry, you made me jump. You

made me cut. How could you have missed that? I loved you Harry, I

would have died to show you that. But now..." she paused from her

rant and glanced at Draco. "But now I know that even if I died you'd

still be the same arrogant prick I left. In fact, a girl dying because she loved you would probably make people pity and admire you more. So I'm going to live. I heard you whispering to me. So now, you'll be the one who looks on while I fall in love with someone else, and ignore you. You'll know the pain, the suffering, the desperation I felt all these four and a half despicable years! And then, maybe you'll find yourself on the window ledge. Maybe you'll find yourself holding the glass. And you'll be the one who just doesn't care anymore." Ginny ended her ranting with a triumphant gleam in her eyes. Draco smiled at her shoulder. Harry stared again, speechless with horror. Ginny, in love with Draco? Impossible!


"Ginny," he said, almost pleadingly. "Come on, Ron won't let you..."

as soon as Harry had spoken, he realised his mistake.


"Ron? RON??? You think I care anymore what my brothers think? They

still treat me like a ten year old." With that, Ginny swung herself

out of bed, managing to look poised even in a hospital gown. She had

removed the bandages to show her new Slytherin friends the marks of a

girl who was willing to give her life for Harry Potter, and had instead

given up something far more valuable: her innocence.

THE END

A/N: Well, I know some of you may expect me to change this, and make
it so Ginny realises her mistake and falls in love with the good, great
Harry Potter, but she won't. This was always going to be a sad story,
and that's how it's going to end. I feel sorry for anyone who doesn't
get to read this. Thanks a lot to dom'sguy
(yeah, I'm talking to u, J!) for reviewing my story when no-one else
would. I may redo this story, so you can expect to see it or its
sequel back, bigger and better than ever in the future, but for now,
say goodbye to angelwriter and her new, vengeful Ginny.
