What Happened Next, 13

Lavender and Harry had planned on having a Christmas party for this joyous holiday. Many ex Hogwarts students were invited. Such as: Parvati Patil, Neville Longbottom, Seamus Finnegan, Dean Thomas, Oliver Wood, George Weasley, Oliver Weasley, Lee Jordan, Ginny Weasley, Alicia Spinnet, and much more. The Party was supposed to be held on December 20, 2002. Which was…tonight.

The flat was decorated in red, green, and white colors in honor to the season. The living room had an extravagant Christmas tree near the fireplace. And its white lights and Christmas balls were reflecting all over the place. As usual Ron was in the kitchen. He had prepared a turkey, chicken, pasta, mash potatoes, and a big cake. Caviar, oysters, and many good things were served as oeurdeuves. (A/N: Spelling??? lolz) "Who is Ginny coming with?" Asked Ron to Hermione. Hermione perked her head up from the living room, "She said she was coming with a date and it was a surprise." Ron nodded and continued on with his work.

It was now 8:00 pm and the party had all ready started. Lavender was running around in her red skirt and tight white shirt making sure everything was in order but also making the time to chat and say hi to all her friends. Seamus arrived behind Lavender and put his hands over her eyes. "Guess who?" He said, his Irish accent ringing in her ears. "God?" Asked Lav playfully as she turned around and jumped into Seamus's arms. He and her had been bestfriends since they were in diapers! And nothing could change that. Harry was having a conversation with Fred and George's business. After giving the twins all that money in their 4th year so they could start there "Weasley's Whizzes" company and now was a proud sponsor of it.

Hermione was showing off her ring to Alicia, Parvati, and Padma and explaining to them how Harry had proposed. "That's so romantic!" Squealed Parvati. Every body congratulated the couple. Harry creeped up behind Hermione and held mistletoe over their head. People were cheering as the fiancees shared a kiss. Suddenly the doorbell rang and everyone turned to see who was coming. Lavender went to open the door to see Ginny with…. Draco Malfoy?

No body knew what to say or what to expect when they saw Draco and Ginny together holding hands. The Weasley brothers hid their pure disgust because after all Ginny was their sister and they loved her. Every Weasley shut up about it except for…Ron, whom was fuming in the kitchen as he saw his sisters' public display. "It's OK hunny, she's grown up now she can date whom she wants to date and if the guy happens to be Draco Malfoy then so be it." Said Lavender to Ron trying to calm him down. Ron just stood there, staring mildly at Malfoy. God he despised him.

Hermione and Harry weren't that happy either to see Malfoy there. Malfoy tried his best to be polite to all these people who were there. It was hard for him considering he had spent seven years of his live despising and ridiculing them. Especially Harry, Hermione, and Ron. Ginny went to see Ron, she could tell he was upset. "Hello Ron" Said Ginny trying to start a conversation with her brother whom was cutting the roast beef with an excessive use of force. "I know it bothers you that Malfoy is here! But I love him! Nothing can change that. He's good now…I promise." Ron put down his knife and looked at his sister. "GOOD? GOOD? PLEASE GINNY! THIS GUY WHO YOU SAY YOU LOVE SPENT HIS WHOLE LIFE MAKING FUN OF OUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS! AND YOU THINK LIGHT OF THAT?!" Now everybody was looking at Ron and Ginny, Malfoy began to step in.

"Don't you yell at her like that Weasley! It's good she's with me now because she might have ended up with a scum bag like your friend Potter over there!" Harry kept to himself and tightened his knuckles. "Don't you speak to me like that Malfoy! Not in my home!" Draco looked around the place. "Home? I live in a place three times bigger than here with at least good people. You expect to believe me that you have a good life when you live with the infamous Potter, the give-me-a-book Granger, and the bimbo Brown?" Ron looked at Draco furiously. No one makes fun of his friends and especially not his girl friend. Ron threw a punch at Malfoy that hit him right in the jaw.

The two men had started fighting with each other and they were uncontrollable.

But now it was even more dangerous, the two guys were sending spells against each other. Ginny and Lavender got between the two and tried to reason with them to stop. "Expilarmus!" Yelled Draco and Ron at the same time. They thought that they were aiming each other but Lavender and Ginny were the one's who were attacked. The spell was so powerful that Ginny and Lav got thrown against a wall by the power of the spell. They both fell unconscious.

Harry sent Hedwig to the Weasley's and the Brown's to tell them what happened. (A/N: See Annie! Hedwig is in the story!) Hedwig flew as fast as she could to reach both houses in time. Harry loved Hedwig and knew he could count on her at any moment of any day. Lavender and Ginny were both sent to St. Mongo's hospital in the wizarding world. Everybody had gone home except Ron, Seamus, Harry, Hermione, Draco, Fred, and George. The Brown's and Weasley's arrived at the same time at the hospital. They hurried quickly to the waiting room where they found Harry and the rest. Ron was pale and so was Draco. Their childish acts had caused a great tragedy. Said Mrs. Weasley to both boys.

It was now 2:00 am and Ron had gone to sit by Lavender's side. He kissed her forehead and sat on the chair beside the hospital bed. He pushed some of her blonde's hairs away from her face carefully and started talking to her. "I'm so sorry Lav. Please come back I need you…I love you. I know I acted like a complete git but I just couldn't understand the fact that my sister and Malfoy were an item. After all he did to me, it was just impossible to take. And after he called you a bimbo! I totally lost it and went after him. I wasn't able to bear the fact that any one would make fun of you. I'm sorry please please come back! I love you!"

In Ginny's room Draco sat staring into her eyes. "I'm so sorry about how I treated your family back then an how I dared to make fun of your brother in his own flat. Some parts of me still come back like that at any given moment. But I truly do love you. I need you to believe me Ginny. I do love you." Mrs. Weasley and Hermione stood at the window to look over at Ron. "He loves her you know Mrs. Weasley. It's incredible. She's really lucky he treats her so well." Said Hermione, to Mrs. Weasley who smiled at her son.

Lavender budged and woke up.

She tightened her hand that was in Ron's. Carefully she opened her eyes to see a pair of blue/green eyes staring back at her. "Hey handsome…" Said Lavender with a faint smile. "Hey beautiful." Said Ron back to her. "Thank god you're back Lav!" He said hugging her. Lavender smiled. "I heard what you said earlier about how you need me and love me." Ron's eyes went wide. "I might have been sleeping but I wasn't death. I just wanted to tell you that that is the sweetest thing anyone had ever said to me. And that I feel exactly the same way."

Two hours later Ginny woke up. Ginny saw everybody looking up at her and she smiled. Her brothers and her mum and dad were by her side the whole time. Behind everybody else she saw that Draco was still there. Ginny and everybody talked for a while before she asked them all to leave her and Draco to talk alone. Draco started apologizing before Ginny cut him off. "I loved you and I thought you changed! But when I saw the fight between you and Ron I realized that I was kidding myself and that you're not ever going to change." Said Ginny trying to keep the tears from flowing down her cheeks. "I'm so sorry. I thought I changed but then the part of me from Hogwarts came back and I didn't know what to do." Ginny looked up at him. "I need to take a break. From us. I need you to show and prove me that that side of you is gone once and for all because I don't think I'm going to be able to bear spending the rest of my life with someone who hates every single one of my friends and family. I'm sorry Draco I just have to." Draco nodded silently, he himself trying to push back the tears. "I'll prove it to you Gin. I'll prove it to you." He said before leaving.

Harry woke up and saw that Hermione wasn't by his side anymore. He excused himself from the families so he could go find Hermione. Harry looked every where for her around the hospital. He just couldn't seem to find her. He was at the front of a long long hall and started walking through it. Harry saw a figure with beautiful long brown hair. He had found his Mione. Hermione was staring at the baby room from a big glass window. Harry put an arm around her and kissed her hair. "I want one Harry. After we're settled down and married, I want us to be a happy family with a baby." Harry smiled as he saw the number of babies and then turned to look at his fiancee. "We'll have one one day Hermione I promise. Have you ever thought of baby names?" Hermione let out a wide smile. "Yes I have actually James if it's a boy, Lily if it's a girl." Harry smiled, "I like that idea, I love it."
