Disclaimer: none of these characters belong to me. However I may screw
them up, make them odd, or otherwise permanently disfigure them-
emotionally, at least-they belong to the holy J.K. Rowling. Thou hast

Draco had been puzzling out the whole "Ginny problem" all night long. He had looked at the problem from every possible angle, trying to evaluate it like a very smart person. Unfortunately, he had not succeeded in finding a single solution. A whole night of marvelous beauty sleep gone to waste! Now he would have to use concealer under his eyes so that he could still look perfect. He daintily sighed. This day was going to be very hard.
As we walked into the Great Hall, Draco searched for Ginny. Even when he did find her, hiding under the Gryffindor table-the idiot-he did not know what to say.
"Ginny, my darling, I know that we got off to kind of a rocky start, but, well, I believe we can still make it."
"-off, oatmeal-brain," she responded, using a word never heard by Harry Potter's delicate ears.
"What's that?" Harry asked, naively.
"Why Ginny, I think you're just embarrassed! Come now, we all act like morons every once in a while, you're allowed to too! Just come along, you can even eat at my table!" Draco was being very kind and sweet. Surely a girl like Ginny would be unable to resist his sensitive, yet sexy, charm. But Ginny was even more immune to wonderfulness than Draco had thought. She went back to eating without another word to him. At least she wasn't under the table hiding-most likely from Potter and that stupid brother of hers.
The day dragged on. Draco could not be his normal arrogant self, even in Potions. When Harry lost 10 points for not immediately reciting back the first 10,000 fungi discovered, Draco could barely smirk. When Neville dropped his wand into his potion, it took a lot of energy for Draco to point and laugh. All the easy things-things that were expected of him- took far longer for Draco than usual. Nothing could make him happy. Poor Draco was depressed.
Suddenly, at the end of the day, Draco got lucky. Everyone was called in for an emergency meeting in the Great Hall. The headmaster looked very grave and upset. Draco wondered what was wrong. Sending several people to the hospital wing, he managed to elbow his way to the front. Some girls were crying, and a few boys looked like they might. Ron was wailing his head off, loudly blowing his nose on Hermione's school things.
"Ron you imbecile! No! Get off my sleeve!"
Hermione forcibly shoved Ron's head away from her. She looked much more angry than sad.
"Oh, it's you," she said when she spotted Draco. They had gone out for 2 seconds back in sixth year. Boy could that girl carry a grudge! He'd let her down nice and easy, too, just said, "You're unpopular, a know-it-all, and really annoying. Ha! I'd never go out with you, no matter how much you paid me!! You're DUMPED! D-U-M, um PED! HAHA!" He never quite figured out why she ran off crying, then sent him a box full of burning pictures of his with hearts drawn around them. Girls were weird!
Suddenly, Dumbledore spoke. "I have some very grave news." He wiped a tear from his eye.
"A student of ours today-Harry Potter-unfortunately perished when he unwittingly jumped off-"
His last words were cut off by another round of sobbing from Ron.
"Ron," said Dumbledore, annoyed, "Why don't you tell us what happened?"
Ron walked up, still sniffling. "Well, Harry jumped off a cliff or something!"
"Why?"
"We were playing freefall," Ron responded.
"What's that, Ronald Weasley?"
"Well, we see who can jump-freefall-the longest without dying. And-and- Harry lost!" Ron ran off, sobbing like crazy.
Suddenly, Draco felt a pressure on his arm.
"Now that, well, you know, I no longer have Harry to fawn over, I'll go out with you." Draco smiled. Now he could break Ginny's heart.
A/N~ Thanks to all my reviewers! You guys are AWESOME!! This is the last chapter, please don't tell me that you can't wait for the next chapter or something, cause well this is it! Review though, please. Sorry about the ending if you don't like it, but the story would have gone on FOREVER and just gotten really boring if I hadn't ended it SOMEHOW. Anyway, I have 2 other stories. If you liked this one, you could be the ultimate quintessence of spiffilicousness and read and review another story-or both!! Anyway, thanks again, please reaview!
