Draco watched Ginny through out the end of the year ceremony.
He couldn't wait to be on the train home. Being alone with her for
hours? That would be bliss. He felt eyes on him.

Looking to the right he saw Professor Snape eyeing him calmly.
Something in the way he was looking at him made Draco think he knew
something he didn't. As The headmaster made his closing remarks Snape
stood and left through a side door.

Everyone in the Great Hall prepared to leave. As Draco headed for the
door, Ginny, Ron, Harry, and Hermione came up beside him. "Hey." He
smiled.

" Hey yourself." Ginny replied back. Ron nodded defensively, still shaken by the fact of his
sister and his enemy. He had to admitt Draco did seem to be different. But all the same, he
didn't like him. He trusted him, sort of, but that was totally differant from likeing the devil.
He took Hermione's hand and took her further up, to talk. Harry shook his head. " I swear, as
much as they strive to be alone, one day they'll have more kids than your mum and dad, Ginny.
He got a laugh out of that then went to go take his place with the love birds, leaving Ginny and
Draco to walk by themselves.

For a moment there was silence, then-
" So, are you happy to be going home?" He asked, looking down.

" Well, yeah, sort of. See, that's something I meant to ask you about.
Because, every year, Harry and Hermione stay for the last few weeks or
so of summer with us. I was just thinking that you might want to, well,
join them. I mean us, er me. For the summer."

She realized she was babbling and promptly shut her mouth. Draco's smile
broadened and he took Ginny's hand. " I think I would like that. I think
I would like that a lot."

Snape watched abrasively as the two students crossed the grounds
together hand in hand. The dark man behind him laughed. "And to think,
in the beginning of this year they thought each other scum."

He stepped forward into the light and removed his hood.

" Sirus, you always did state the obvious. And I do believe you own me
ten galleons for that. I won this bet." He pulled the money from his
robes.

"I guess that's right. I mean you did get a Malfoy and a Weasley
together. But who really won Severus? I think even you learned
something from this. All four of us did. We learned our lessons in
love and in magic. What else does a Wizard need?"
