Chapter 16: Normal Psycho-Babble
"Gin!"
Ginny heard her brother's voice, and she turned to see him running toward her. "What's up, bro?" she asked him, making him smile.
"You feelin ok? Your back, I mean?"
She winced as she thought of the acid marks. "Yeah. It's stings a tiny bit, but I can deal."
"That's good. I'm proud of you," he told her as they started walking again.
"For what?"
"For saving Harry the way you did. Gosh, your efforts would have been in vain, if you had died," he told her, his eyes twinkling, "But we're all proud of you. You should have seen Mom's face when she saw you lying in that hospital bed unconscious. She was ready to murder, until we told her what happened. She still looked a little strange, but a brightness had entered her eyes, and a few tears were running down her cheeks and she kept whispering, 'My baby' over and over. I think she was quite mad that day."
Ginny rolled her eyes as he continued. "We all were. Especially Harry." Ron grinned to himself as he saw Ginny's ears perk at the mention of his name. "I swear he burned a hole in the carpet the way he kept pacing. And sometimes sat down and pulled out a sheet of paper and started writing something." He saw Ginny wince slightly. "You ok?" he asked.
"Yeah," she said, shaking her head, as if to get the hair out of her eyes. "My back," she lied.
Ron nodded knowingly. "You don't have to lie to me, you know," he told her. "I know you are madly in love with that git. It's not his fault. He's finally found happiness, and he's scared to lose it!"
Ginny gave an exasperated snort, sounding much like her brother. "I'm not angry at him for it! Well, not very much. I understand QUITE clearly why he's done what he's done. I'm not the complete retard you all seem to take me for. I might be naïve, but I know some things."
"Ginny," Ron started, but the look in her eyes shut him up.
"I love him. I don't know why he won't accept the fact that I don't care what happens to me! It's my life, my decision, and you all must have your heads up your arse, if you guys can't see that!"
She left, leaving an open-mouthed Ron gaping at her as she made her way to Transfiguration.

Hermione wasn't having much more luck with Harry. "You are as stubborn as a mule!"
Harry grinned, looking across at his best friend. "Mione, let's change this around. Maybe then you'll be able to see this from my point of view. What would you do if Draco was going to die because of being with you." Harry thought a moment, and an idea struck him. "His father, Lucious or whatever, wanted to kill him because he was in love with a muggle born."
Hermione bit her lip, and closed her eyes. "Harry. Give me proof some body is going to try and kill Ginny and I'll answer that question."
"She almost died the other night!"
"It's her fate."
"Thank you," he told her, glaring slightly.
"Jeez! Harry. I always thought you were smart. Maybe for once, you're not doing the right thing."
Hermione left in a burst of speed and walked to Arithmacy. He rolled his eyes at her and went in the general direction of the divination room.
He climbed up through the trap door and coughed as the strong scent on incense went up his nostrils. Why was she always burning something that smelled of something disgusting, like cat pee?
"Today class," Trelawney began. "We will be studying love and it's wondrous powers. Now, I know a lot of you have been in love and you know the wonderous feeling it gives your heart.
"Now, love is a dangerous thing. If played right, it can be the strongest thing, and can stop almost anything, even death. But if doubted, or played wrong, it can turn against you and ruin any happiness you thought you had."
Harry felt something cold grip his spine and he looked at Professor Trewlawney. This didn't sound like her normal psycho-babble. This sounded.real.
What if he was wrong? What if the love he and Ginny shared would protect her rather than hurt her. Merlin, take the CRAZY teacher to make him look at a different point of view.
