Minutes after my departure in the Great Hall, the Dream Team, enters
the Common Room. Ron very red in the face sat down in front of me, looking
directly at me. Harry and Hermione, both sat down with the same expressions.
"Well, are you going to tell us what that was all about?" Ron asked getting impatient with my blank expression.
He probably expected me to tell him what he wanted to hear, but when I did the opposite, he got pretty mad.
"No, I don't think I will. It really isn't any of your business." I say simply.
"Ginny, you ..." Harry started.
"Virginia." I corrected him.
"Virginia," he said glancing at Ron, "you've been acting really strange lately. Why don't you tell us what's been going on, we might be able to help." He says with a smile.
Rolling my eyes, I get up and look down on them, "Sorry guy's but what I'm dealing with has nothing to do with you. It's just between me, Malfoy, and Snape. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm tired and wish to go to sleep. I have a big day tomorrow."
"Virginia Weasley! Don't you walk away from me! Virginia!" Ron yelled standing up as I closed the 6th year girl dorms.
Sitting up in my bed, squinting at the bits of sunlight peeking through my bed curtains. Today was a Hogsmeade weekend and I planned to go and spy on Malfoy some. Pushing back my curtains, I notice that all the other girls, except Hermione are still asleep.
Yawning, I get out of bed and head into the bathroom. After cleaning myself up, I change into a plain t-shirt and a pair of torn jeans. I pull my socks on and head down to the Common Room. While putting on one of my socks, while heading down the stairs, I stumble and trip on the last two steps, falling on my face.
"Ginny! Are you alright?" I hear Harry ask me as he gets up and heads over to me.
"Virginia," I correct him, "and yes I'm fine." I say getting up on my feet.
Dusting myself off, I head over to one of the couches. Setting my shoes down on the floor, I begin to put them on.
"So, Virginia, are you going to Hogsmeade today?" Hermione asked.
Hermione was finally on speaking terms with me, she finally figured out that I was only trying to help her, or so she thinks. Ron and Harry were, ok I suppose which was a shame cause I wanted them to fight somemore.
"Yeah, I am going. I have some business to take care of today." I say putting my foot down.
"Would you like to come with us?" Hermione asked sweetly.
"No. I already told you, I have some stuff to take care of."
"What kind of stuff is that?" Ron asked.
"Oh, just with some old friends that are helping me out."
"What kind of old friends?" Ron asked.
"None of your business."
"Oh, and I know your guys are probably gonna follow me, which I really don't care if you do or not, but be warned. If your caught, I'm not gonna defend you."
The Trio glanced at each other and then looked back at me.
"I have to get going now, I want to eat before anyone else comes in for breakfast." I say standing up and heading towards the portrait hole. Once outside, the portrait hole opened again to reveal the Dream Team. Rolling my eyes, I head down the stairs to the Great Hall. In the Great Hall, I see Malfoy sitting over a bowl of food at the Slytherin table.
Going over to the Gryffindor table I sit down, closely followed by the Trio, who sit directly across from me. Picking up some toast, I began to butter it. I look across to Harry, Hermione, and Ron, who are looking at me with anticipation.
"You know, if you guys want some there is bread and butter right there. I don't have to make any for you."
Before they could answer, both Ron and Harry, jumped up pointing their wands to something behind me. Slowly turning around, I look up into the face of Malfoy.
"Malfoy, what do you want?" I ask irritated.
"We need to talk Weasley. Now."
"No, that's what you need to do. You need to talk to a shrink."
"Now, Weasley."
"You know Malfoy, when I came here, I was hungry, but now I'm fed up. So if you'll excuse I have to go to the bathroom."
"Weasley..."
"Is there a problem here?" a voice said behind us.
We turned to see Prof. McGonacall coming into the Great Hall.
"N..." before Malfoy could finish, I stood up and pushed him aside.
"No Prof., Draco here was just telling me some quite exciting news. Him and Goyle finally got together. You know I was telling him to just come right out and tell Goyle how he really feels about him." I say smiling sweetly.
"That is not what was happening Prof. She's lying." Malfoy said quickly.
"Oh, come now Draco. No point in denying it anymore. You need to tell everyone your joyous news." I say hitting him on the back.
"Well, if that's all then, Mr. Malfoy you'd better sit down. Students will be coming in for breakfast now."
With that Prof. McGonacall turned to sit down at the teachers table. With a sour look, Malfoy headed to his own table and sat down.
Reaching into my pocket, I take out a moist towlette package. Opening it, I begin to wipe off my hands. Looking at the entrance, students began to file into the Great Hall for breakfast.
I decided to wait till the middle of breakfast to make my toast. Deciding that now was the right time, I stood up on my seat and muttered a spell to make voice loud.
"Attention Everyone!" when everyone turned my way I continued.
"I have an announcement to make! This morning Draco came to me with the most exciting news that anyone could possibly have." Picking up my goblet, I continue, "I would like to make a toast to Gregory Goyle and Draco Malfoy. May your relationship last forever." I end by taking a sip out of my goblet. When I sat down the Great Hall erupted into laughs that could have shook the whole castle if it had been a bit louder. I looked over to Malfoy who was now shooting death glares at me.
End Chapter.
