Chapter 9

There's something about Ginny

Harry woke up on a Monday morning, feeling completely lost. He didn't like the fact that he and Hermione were fighting, even if it wasn't real. He didn't feel that jeopardizing their relationship was worth it. Even if Ginny had been being a real bitch.

What if this didn't work out? Harry looked at himself in the mirror. His Reflection was staring back. The black hair that was always messy, the green eyes that penetrated through others into their soul, The glasses that his aunt and uncle had so 'graciously' bought for him. And of course, who could forget, the scar on his forehead, over his right eye. The curse of this scar was more then he had ever imagined. Not only did it link him with Voldemort himself, but it also linked him to his true love, which has come to be Hermione.

Any pain, hope, loss, or happiness that she felt, he felt. This was sometimes a blessing, yet sometimes a curse. He thought it amazing to be able to know when 'Mione was happy. But it was awful to know when she was hurting. He hated when people were in pain.

Harry looked around his room; he skimmed the beds that lined the circular dormitory. He looked along the walls at all of the posters that his roommates had put up, supporting his own sport. Ron's many Chudley Cannons posters made him smile. He realized how easy and carefree Ron's life was. He was so distant from him now. They hardly ever talked.

Harry started to remember how much Ron liked Hermione in the first four years of their Hogwarts education. He also remembered how mad Ron had been when Harry asked Hermione to the dance. But Ron hadn't made the move, so he asked her. They were friends after all right? So they would have a fun time. But by the end of the evening they had realized they were much, much more than friends. They were in love. They fit together so perfectly. And when Harry looked back, he realized that He and Hermione had never had any awkward moments, the way Ron had. They were always able to talk to one another. And when Hermione had gotten a new little brother over the summer, it wasn't Ron that Hermione had told first, but he, Harry was told personally by Hermione. He had been invited over to the Granger's house for the remainder of the summer. And Harry and Hermione got even closer than before. He loved Hermione. Wow Harry thought, he had just felt a huge pang of jealousy, and just realized that someone had been tapping into his mind, and was using his mind-reading powers. It must be Hermione, Harry thought.

He concluded that this wouldn't affect their relationship at all, their love was way too strong, to be even dented by such petty acts. He would follow through with the plan, and get Ginny back. All Harry had to worry about was Ginny's reaction when she found out.

"Oh Harry dear, come walk me to breakfast!" Harry turned around to see Ginny. Speaking of the Devil Harry thought. And followed Ginny down the stairs, hand in hand, on their way to breakfast.

~*~*~*~

Hermione woke up the day after her little plan had been put to work: getting back at Ginny. She sat up in her bed and looked around her room. As usual, she was the only one awake at this hour. She saw Ginny sleeping at the far end of the room, completely opposite of Hermione.

Hermione still wasn't sure about her plan. What if this hurt her and Harry's relationship? She quickly pushed this thought out of her head, knowing that over the past year they had become very close.

Hermione heard a bed spread move, and looked across from her bed. Ginny had pushed off her covers and was starting to sit up. Hermione quickly picked up a book from her bed stand, pretending to be completely absorbed.

Ginny looked around the room. No one was up but that little know-it-all Hermione. Oh, how happy Ginny was to have Harry as her man. She had many plans for him. Such as:

Get to know him

Make sure that he kisses me ALL the time

Get him to come into my dorm room when no one else is in here

And

Seduce him with my gorgeous body

Ginny had thought about all of this for a long time.

From across the room, behind her book, Hermione had a smirk on her face. She had been using Harry's power to read Ginny's mind and couldn't help but snigger about how highly Ginny though of herself. Ginny may be pretty Hermione thought, but Harry has told me that he loves the curves of my body, and Ginny don't got nuthin on me! Hermione thought rather smugly.

"Oh Hermione, don't be jealous that I get Harry's wonderful body all to myself!" Ginny said from across the room.

"Oh and by the way, Harry will like my curves even more than he likes your small, what do you call them. breasts?" Ginny said, laughing at herself when she finished.

"I don't need to take this, and anyway Ginny, Harry and I are over so I don't care." Hermione grabbed her bag and robes and headed for the common room, tears starting to swell in her eyes. Why were Ginny's words so hurtful? And how did she know what she was thinking? Hermione knew that she and Harry weren't really over, so why was she so jealous?

Hermione heard laughter, and looked up at the stairs leaving the boys dormitories. Ginny was walking down, practically dragging Harry by the hand. He looked rather bored not paying attention to Ginny, but then he caught Hermione's eye and winked at her. She smiled inwardly, not wanting anyone to get suspicious. She had nothing to worry about. Now she had to find Draco.

~*~*~*~

Hermione had just rushed away from herbology in Green House #3, she needed to get to potions before the rest of Slytherin house. She needed to get to Draco.

She quickly walked into the potions room, relieved to see only Draco setting his cauldron on his table, which he shared with Gregory Goyle.

"Hello Draco." Hermione said cheerfully coming up to Draco and giving him a peck on the cheek

"Whoa, what was that for?" Draco looked astonished, he had always been so jealous of Harry. He remembered back to when he had first met him. He had been jealous of him before he even met him. The only talk on the Hogwarts express that day had been of the famous Harry Potter. When he saw him, he realized that that was the boy he had seen in the robe shop a week before. He had no idea then that Harry Potter would be his known enemy for four more years.

He taunted Harry, and made fun of his best friend Ron Weasley. He had been mad that he wasn't Harry's friend. Harry seemed like such a good friend. And he wanted Hermione. Even though it had just been last year when they started going out. Harry had her as his best friend for four years. Draco had fallen in love with her at his first look. She had been looking for Longbottom's toad, Trevor, and had come to his compartment on the train. He loved her bushy brown hair, her warm brown eyes, and her face was always so cheerful, and her lips were full and looked very soft, if only he could touch them.

He had become so in love with her that at the beginning of their 5th year, he had raped her. His actions were something that he regretted deeply. He had hurt her. And all of his hopes of becoming Harry's friend had been squished.

Not until the Black crystal crisis, had he become this close with anyone out of Slytherin. He was now trusted by them. But still, none of that explained that kiss.

"Listen Draco," Draco suddenly snapped back to reality.

"Yes?" He said wanting to know what was going on.

"You need to pretend to be my boyfriend." Hermione said quietly. People were starting to file in and come to their desks.

"Why?" Was all Draco could think of saying.

"Because Harry and I are going to try to get back at Ginny!" Hermione said like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Oh I see." Draco smirked. No one really liked Ginny she was full of herself and screwed every guy in school, even him. The only guy she hadn't done yet was Harry.

"What's your plan?" Draco asked now anxious to know what Hermione was thinking.

~*~*~*~

Harry had just walked out of herbology, and tried to walk slowly to potions, Hermione was supposed to be telling Draco the plan. He soon noticed that Hermione was no where in sight, so he started to walk at normal speed, but was soon intercepted, by his recent girlfriend, Ginny.

"Oh Harry I missed you so much!" Ginny said, pouting.

"It's only been four hours!" Harry said, trying to walk faster.

"Oh I know Harry dear, but I just couldn't stand being away from you for those four hours! I couldn't stand not seeing your wonderful blue eyes!" Ginny said loudly, by now half the corridor was staring at her.

Ginny went down on her knees and grabbed onto Harry's robes.

"Oh Harry please don't go off to class! I need you now more then ever, I have to tell you something so important!" Ginny yelled dramatically.

"All right, all right, I'll come, but just to let you know, I'm risking getting a detention with a very pissed off Snape!" Harry said while being dragged down the corridor, by an ecstatic Ginny, who probably wasn't listening to him anyway.

After about 10 minutes of being dragged through corridors, that were getting continuously darker, Harry started to get impatient.

"Ginny where are you taking us?"

"Here." Ginny said, coming to a wall.

"Where?"

"Argh," Ginny muttered. She took out her wand and drew with it a star on the wall. The wall started to ripple, and Ginny grabbed his hand, and she pulled him through the wall, into an enormous golden room. Ginny looked at Harry.

"Wow." Was about all Harry could think of saying.

Ginny had just led him into a big round room, which was an enchanting color of gold. All around the room were portraits of beautiful women, all in exotic clothing, and in very flexible poses. The closest portrait to them was of a topless mermaid, and she didn't bother to cover her chest with her very long blue hair.

"Oh Ginny that's a good one, many of the boys you have brought into here have been cute, but none as cute as the famous Harry Potter!" She said looking seducedley (I think I might've made up that word.) at Harry.

The wheels in Harry's head started to turn, and he realized what Ginny was trying to do. She was using this room full of beautiful women to seduce him for her, and then she would handle the actual stuff.

"Ginny I have to go, I need to get to potions I'm already 20 minutes late!" Harry said, wanting to get out of this room before he lost control of his actions.

"But Harry you should stay!" Ginny said, as she violently grabbed Harry's package.

"Ow, o, oh my god, that hurt like hell!" Harry yelled, pushing Ginny across the room. This hardly phased her, she came running back at Harry, and slashed his face. Blood was pouring from his face and down his robes. How the hell could she do that with her nails? Harry thought. He needed to get out of here, he took out his wand.

"Expelliarmus!" Harry shouted with such force that Ginny was thrown across the room and knocked out from the impact of her head with the wall.

Harry ran out of the room and started to head for potions, he started to think about how Ginny used to be such a sweet girl. Harry knew that she had always liked him, but just earlier this year, she had been so happy for him and Hermione, she had said that they were perfect for each other. She even helped them get together with the help of Ron. Something must've happened in the past month. She was so violent and jealous. What is wrong with her?

~*~*~*~

Ginny lifted her head, she looked around the circular room. Her head was throbbing, she felt her temple, and brought her hand from it, it was covered in blood. What the hell happened? Ginny asked herself. She was answered by the portrait of the topless, blue haired mermaid.

"Oh dear! You and that cutie got into a row, and the. thing kicked in." The mermaid looked around as if making sure no one was listening.

"Do you think he knows? Because if he does he'll tell that slut, and those other two. They are after it after all. But they won't find it. They will never find it." Ginny said, her eyes started to become pitch black.

Harry doesn't really love me, or else this room would've affected him. This is all Hermione's fault. Well, what goes around comes around. right? I get hurt. She gets hurt!
