Chapter 3: The Plan: Phase One
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
Ginny, Ron, and Draco met near the lake and talked about their success in phase one. "So Draco, how did you do on Phase One?" " I made Granger cry and then I'm sure Potter came and played knight in shining armor to rescue her." "Where you really mean?"Ginny asked with some concern. "Hon, I was not any more mean than I was before. Or that I would be on normal curcomstances." Ginny blushed a little at being called hon. Ron started to get mad. "You are here to get Harry and Hermione together Malfoy, not to flirt with my little sister." Draco shot him an evil look that quieted him.
"What do we do next?" Ginny asked. " I can make fun of Potter a bit and then when I get him really mad I'll back off untill I can find Granger and then make her cry. After that if they don't get together I'm going to have to ask her out and then make him jealous and you know the rest of that plan." "OK." Ginny said. Ron just nodded his head.
Later, in the Great Hall, Draco spotted Harry leaving alone. This was his chance. "Hey Potter! Where's your precious Mudblood and that poor Weasle?" Harry didn't even turn but Malfoy was sure that he had gotten under his skin.
Draco found Ginny near the Quidditch field. As he neared her he began to wonder about that feeling he got when he looked at this little one. With shock he began to wonder if he liked her. Really liked her. As in a boyfriend, girlfriend thing. Before he reached her he decided that he did like this Weasley and that he wanted her to be his girlfriend. And what ever a Malfoy wanted they got. He would make sure that he got what he wanted.
"Virginia, it worked! I got under Potter's skin. All I have to do now is make Granger cry once more and this whole thing is in the bag." She turned to him. "What makes you so sure? And why in the world are you calling me anything but Weasley and why are you using my full name instead of it?"
"Well, Potter and Granger are destined to be together right?" She nodded. "Then it can't be too long before fate starts to play it's roll in this whole messed up fiasco. And Virginia sounds better than Ginny. I wouldn't call such a beautiful young lady by her last name. Not any more at least." She blushed scarlet at being called beautiful by Draco Malfoy, her crush. "What do you mean 'not any more'?" "People change Virginia. I am, believe it or not a person. I've changed. I would like to get to know you, Harry, Ron and Hermione better but my reputation as a Malfoy has never allowed me to do so." "Are you saying that you don't really hate us? That you were only mean because that's what everyone expected of you?" He nodded. "Oh."
She shivered."Are you cold?" He asked. She nodded. He took off his cloak and rapped it around her. "No, you need it." But he wouldn't take it back. He kissed her on the cheek. "You really are beautiful." He whispered in her ear. "Will you be my girlfriend?" She was shocked. Draco Malfoy asking her out! She nodded. "Good." He said smiling. "As long as we don't tell your brother I'm happy." "Why shouldn't we tell Ron?" She asked confused. " Didn't you see how he was about to knock me out for flirting with you? Think of what he would do if he knew we were going out." They both shuddered at the thought. "Will you hang out with Hermione, Harry and I after we get them together? Then you can explain why you had to be such an ass to them." He nodded and they walked off to the castle together. Once they reached the door they separated with a kiss.
Draco got his next big chance when Hermione was walking off to some class without Ron and Harry. He siezed this chance to full fill the plan. "Hey Mudblood!" He really did hate being mean to someone so nice but he had to get her and Harry together. " Is Potter being good to you in bed? I heard that you aren't the only one in his bed. I heard that that Weasley girl has been there too. Do you need me to spell it out for you? The little Pott- head has been cheating on you!" She ran away, tears staining her face.
When she got to the common room she colapsed on the couch and cried herself to sleep. She was awaken by Harry's voice. "Hermione? Are you okay? Ron and I were worried. We didn't see you at lunch." She sat up. Memories came flooding back to her. She started crying again. Harry held her tight."What did Malfoy say this time?" He asked. "Wait, let me guess. Am I good in bed, I'm cheating on you with Lavender and he called you a name." She was shocked. "Actualy you're cheating on me with Ginny." She started to cry again. This time it was because she did want to be Harry's girlfriend. She didn't however want to tell him that. Harry stayed with her and calmed her down. Before she fell asleep she heard him whisper "I love you 'Mione."
When she woke up Harry was smiling down at her. "Did you mean what you said?" "When I said what?" He asked her. "When you said you loved me." "Yes. I meant it. I didn't mean I loved you as a friend or a sister I meant I loved you as a crush.. as a ... as a girlfriend." He was blushing furiously now. "I love you too, Harry. I mean head-over-heels, can't-stop- thinking-about-you, want-to-be-with-you-every-minute love you." He gulped. "Hermione will you be my girlfriend?" She nodded, too happy to do anything else.
"Virginia, we got together, we got Potter and Granger together (they don't know that for sure.) but what about your brother? Isn't he kind of the odd one out?" "You have an excellent point. Why don't we try and set him up with some one?" "What about that Lavender girl?" A smile lite her face. "He does seem to fancy her doesn't he?" They looked over to the Gryffindor table (a/n:Ginny went over to the Slytherin table. Also everyone but Ron knows that they are going out. He thinks they are still talking about thier success.) and saw Ron talking to Lavender. She was giggling. (a/n: I HATE when girls do that. I am a girl by the way. All the authors of this story are.)"She seems to be in to him too." Draco said smiling. "Virginia, do you think you can get Lavender to admit that she likes him?" "Sure. Lavender and I are pretty close." "Good. After you get her to admit it I can convince Ron that she likes him. Then I can push him to ask her out. I might be able to make Harry see that he needs to be pushed and he might help me." She nodded. I love when he comes up with these ideas and then they all work. She thought.
"Harry, do you think we should tell people we're a couple?" "As long as we don't tell Rita Skeeter I think we should." She laughed remembering all the trouble she caused Harry in their 4th year. "That wasn't funny." Harry said trying to look serious. "Oh yes it was. It was hilarious, absolutely hilarious!" She told him. "I suppose it was."he said smiling.(a/n:Food. Hungry for food. Pumpkin pie! He, he, he!P.S. The authors of this story are crazy. They cannot help it!)
