Ron was more miserable then ever: he could still feel little bumps on his skin. He had dragged himself into the kitchen and outside, where Draco was standing, alone.

Draco had been misunderstood by Ron all year. He wasn't trying to get a laugh out of dating Ron's sister: instead, he loved Ginny.

"Hello, Weasley." Draco smirked, seeing Ron appear in front of him. "Thought that joke was pretty funny, didn't you? Guess your mum wanted you to come here and apologize to ME, isn't that right?"

Ron snorted. "At least the ears fit in with the rest of your looks." He shook his head. "I'm not going to apologize to you!"

Draco gave an evil grin. "Just wait until we're back at Hogwarts, Weasley. You might find your ears will have changed some as well."

Ron looked furiously at him. "You-stay-away-from-Ginny!"

Draco shouted back this time. "No! Your sister is the greatest person I've ever known in my life! You are not going to stop me, Weasley!"

"Draco!" Ginny had come outside, giving Draco a tight hug, grinning. Draco had blushed, not realizing that Ginny had been listening to every word.

"Hello Ginny." Draco said. "We shall continue this discussion later. I think I and Ginny need to go for a walk." He held out his hand for Ginny to take, before leaving.

Ron stood, stunned, before running up to his room. He began writing a letter.

Dear Harry,

Can you BELIEVE what Malfoy is doing? Fred and George were no help at all. Mum actually asked me to apologize to HIM! What should I do? Any ideas of curses to use on him and Ginny? Anyway, I have another idea that would involve Peeves. At least Ginny will be leaving for Malfoy tomorrow. I can't stand those two around! I'll get you the details on the plan when I have a chance. Will I see you at Diagon Alley?

-Ron

The next day Ginny was beginning to pack: she couldn't wait to meet Draco's parents. Ron shook his head, watching his sister leave. He wondered how going to visit the Malfoys could be a good experience.

At least he had a month to plot out his revenge...
