Chapter Two

..." No one has ever loved anyone
The way everyone wants to be loved"...

"What's wrong, Ginny?"

Ginny ran into her brothers arms without answering him. It was late, and the Gryffyndor common room was nearly empty. Only Ron and Hermione, the lovebirds, remained.

"What happened?" Ron asked, "Why are you crying?"

Ginny allowed the tears to flow down her cheeks as she explained everything to her brother and Hermione about what had happened between her and Harry. She took a deep breath, trying to keep control of herself, before continuing. "And I bumped into Malfoy, in one of the staircases..."

Immediately Ron's eyes got darker. Just the mention of Draco Malfoy's name could get him angry. They'd been enemies since their first year at school, and there was no way they would ever become friends.

"H-he grabbed my arm," Ginny rolled up her sleeve, and showed her brother the large bruise that was beginning to form. "He wouldn't let go. And he kept trying to get me to tell him what was wrong. Not that he even cares..."

Ron didn't even seem to hear what she was saying. He was just looking at her arm, more specifically, the bruise on her arm. "I'll kill him," he whispered, standing up, "I'll kill him and I don't care who knows it."

"Be serious, Ron." Hermione said, trying to pull him back down into his seat.

"I am serious, Hermione. That bastard hurt my little sister. He needs to pay." Ron said angrily.

Hermione sighed. "And he will...Just not now. It's past midnight. He's probably already gone back to his dormitories. You just need to sit and calm down..." She helped him back into his chair. "Now you comfort your sister, okay? She's feeling down right now. I'm going to go up to bed. I hope you feel better tomorrow, Ginny." She gave Ron a quick kiss on the lips, which made Ginny cringe.

"Could you please never do that around me again?" Ginny asked her, joking of course.

"Sorry, Ginny-Winny." Hermione said with a smile, "Good-night you two."

Ginny and Ron said their good-nights to Hermione as she walked towards the staircase leading to the girls dormitories.

"Do you think you'll be okay, Ginny?" Ron finally asked her.

Ginny shrugged her shoulders. "I-I don't know...I really don't. I hope so..." She sighed. "I really like him, Ron. A lot."

"I know you did, Gin. And he liked you. But...he's found someone he's really happy with. And you will, too. Just not anytime soon...And not with anyone that I don't approve of. Like Malfoy. Or Neville..."

"Ew!" Ginny said with a small giggle, "Malfoy...Neville? No way."

"Good," Ron said with a smile, "Now go upstairs. I'm sure you'll feel better soon."

"I hope."
