~~Ginny and Harry~~
"Ginny I don't know how to say this but…."
"I know already Harry it got weird, For the both of us."
"I'm sorry Ginny but, I think it's over between us. At least for now." Tears were forming in Ginny's eyes. "Ginny please don't cry. I really like you but I just don't want to go out with you anymore."
"IT'S BECAUSE YOU LIKE SOME OTHER GIRL ISN'T IT HARRY?"
"No Ginny it really isn't." Harry lied. He actually found Maggie quite attractive.
"Ok, fine then Harry." Ginny stormed off. Harry felt really bad. Just then Maggie came to sit down. She and Hermione started talking about the first day of classes. Then she turns to me and says,
"So First day of classes are you nervous Harry?"
"Not really." The first class they had was charms with Ravenclaw.. They were learning about a new charm that would make lifeless objects unbreakable. The spell was ANTIS FRACTUS. Hermione was getting really frustrated with Ron and took Harry's glasses for an example. "Look, Ron it's not that hard see? ANTIS FRACTUS." Then Hermione threw Harry's glasses down on the ground really hard and picked them back up. "See Ron not one scratch. Thank you Harry." Harry was talking to Maggie. So he took his glasses back after hardly noticing that they had been gone. After a few more classes they went to lunch. Maggie an Harry were still talking and had become quite good friends for people who had only just met. Then at lunch they all got a big surprise.
"Students, I have the pleasure of announcing to you that there will be a ball for students of all grade levels.." The students cheered, Harry and Maggie blushed and smiled while Ron began to ask Hermione something. Then Dumbledore began to speak again, "And we have a visitor. Mr. Viktor Krum!" The students cheered and applauded as he walked over to Hermione. He helped her up and began walking off with her, she shot a backwards glance at ron looking as if she was saying sorry and she wanted him to come after her. Yet ron was too proud to do this.
After lunch was over Cho tapped harry on the shoulder. "Hello Harry!" she said
"Hi Cho." Harry answered distractedly as he searched for Maggie.
"Harry I was wondering, would you go to the ball with me?" Cho asked nervously.
"umm Cho I think I am going with someone else. I'm sorry." Cho looked hurt.
"Oh……. Well see you later then."
"Bye Cho." Harry said. He really felt bad, yet he wanted to ask Maggie. Harry didn't get a chance to talk to her before Defense Against Dark Arts started.
~~Hermione~~
Fleur walked in to the class and said "Salut!! I think we are in for a good year class. Monsieur Moody left a list of things you 'ave covered. Tsk, tsk, tsk, I would expect third years to have gotten this far!! Ah, a Professor Lockhart taught the class for one year, that explains everything. Ok then, I 'ave to bring you up to a fifth year level!! 'Dis classe will be very difficult. We will start on how to identify, and kill non- wizard part human creatures." At this point Hermione walked in looking like she was going to cry. She was cradling one arm and went up to the front of the class to explain to Mademoiselle Delacour why she was late. She pulled up her sleeve so only Fleur could see it. Fleur told her to take her seat but go to the hospital wing as soon as possible. Hermione started to silently cry during class. Ron wanted to know what was wrong but she refused to tell him. They took notes on how to tell a werewolf from a regular human for the rest of class.
~~Back in the common room~~
Hermione and Ron were having one of their terrible rows when Harry came back up to the common room. "HERMIONE JUST TELL ME WHY YOU WERE LATE! WHAT DID KRUM DO TO YOU? DO I NEED TO GO KICK HIS ARSE??" Ron yelled.
"Ron," Hermione said, she was on the brink of tears again. "Just drop it ok?" Ron went over to her and tried to see what was wrong with her arm.
"Hermione I know that he was the one that hurt your arm. Just let me see it."
"NO Ron!" Hermione tried to yank her arm away, but Ron had grabbed her sleeve. When Hermione jerked her arm away the sleeve went up and exposed Hermione's cut, bruised, broken arm.
"Hermione…..that looks terrible. Viktor did that?" Ron said with concern. Hermione nodded. Ron gave her a hug and said "I'm going to take you to see Professor Dumbledore and I would like it if you told me what he did to you on the way, ok?" Ron hugged her and they left.
~~Harry~~
Harry was concerned about Hermione but went off in search of Maggie. He didn't want her to be asked by someone else. Harry found her sitting by the fire with Crookshanks.
"Hey Maggie how are you?"
"I'm fine, Hermione asked me to keep an eye on Crookshanks for her. Do they always fight like that?" Maggie asked.
"Yea, but usually they end up really mad at each other and don't speak for weeks on end." Harry replied. Maggie laughed at this. "So Maggie, are you going to the ball?"
"Yea why?"
"Well I was wondering, maybe, possibly, you might want to come with me?"
"Yea, I'd love to." Maggie said. Harry heard Ginny walk past he looked up and she was crying. For a split second in the back of his mind something told Harry that something was wrong with this.
"Ginny I don't know how to say this but…."
"I know already Harry it got weird, For the both of us."
"I'm sorry Ginny but, I think it's over between us. At least for now." Tears were forming in Ginny's eyes. "Ginny please don't cry. I really like you but I just don't want to go out with you anymore."
