A/N: this is a different kind of chapter, it is based around Damaged by
TLC, I was listening to that song when I was thinking of this story so I
put the two together, I hope you like how it turns out.

Ginny sat in the common room after the morning classes. Tom sat in front of her and watched her every move.
"What are you thinking?" he asked.
"Huh? Oh nothing." Ginny replied avoiding his glare.
"Ginny talk to me, we were fine this morning and now I can't get a word out of you." Tom said brushing his hand against Ginny's cheek.
"It's nothing really, promise," Ginny gave a fake smile and brushed Tom's hand away.
***
I know I'm kinda strange,
to you sometimes
Don't always say,
what's on my mind
You know that I've been hurt,
by some guy
But I don't wanna mess up this time
***
"Ginny. come on I want to help you, just tell me what I need to do," Tom said, and Ginny could have sworn she saw a tear in his eye.
"Tom, I am just well I have been thinking about someone else," Ginny thought about what she had just said and quickly added, "but I have been thinking about us as well."
"Who is he? You've decided to go with him instead. Is it Potter? Or is it Malfoy? What about your brother Ron?" Tom said looking angry.
"No, Tom you have to understand! You hurt me! Three times no less. and you also took away someone who was important to me.. My problems aren't caused by you well not intentionally.." Ginny said putting her head in her hands.
***
And I really really really care
And I really really really want you
And I think I'm kinda scared
Cos I don't want to lose you
If you really really really care
Then maybe you can hang through
I hope you understand
It's nothing to you
***
Tom shook his head, "Ginny it's you who should understand, I risked everything to be with you, everything! Don't you hear me?!"
Ginny looked at him with anger in her eyes.
"That's not the point! Do you even know how much I have risked? Do you? I didn't think so! You haven't even realized why.. Oh just forget it, you wouldn't understand and you aren't!" Ginny stood up and walked away from Tom.
Tom held her back, "What the hell are you hiding from me? What the hell is so damn important? Why are you so afraid to tell me?"
"I can't tell you! I can't trust you anymore!" Ginny twisted out of Tom's grip and ran out of the common room.
***
My heart's at a low
I'm so much to manage
I think you should know that
I've been damaged
I'm falling in love
There's one disadvantage
I think you should know
that I've been damaged
***
Sometimes Tom made her so mad, but what Tom didn't understand was how much Ginny loved him, the largest number in the world could never add up to how much she loved him.
Ginny took a little walk around the castle and finally headed back to the common room.
She walked inside and saw Hermione and Tom talking. Ginny's eyes narrowed.
"Hi Ginny, me and Tim were just talking about you." Hermione said smiling.
"Oh, I am sure that's exactly what you were talking about!" Ginny stalked off and headed up to the dorms but instead of going her dorm she went to Tom's dorm. She opened that door a crack just to make sure no one was in there. When she saw no one she walked inside and over to Tom's stuff. Most of it said Tim Rhyme on it but of course she knew it was Tom's stuff.
She started to look through it. Maybe Tom was leaving her for Hermione. She looked for anything that could have traces of her, pictures, clothing, hairs, anything.
She heard the door open behind her.
"Ginny? What are you doing?" It was Tom.
"I was. just. um." She had no words.
***
I might look through your stuff,
for what I don't wanna find
Or I might just set you up,
to see if you're all mine
I'm a little paranoid,
from what I've been through
Don't know what you got yourself into
***
She'd been caught.
"Tom, it isn't what you think, I was just.. Tom you have to understand that I've been.." Ginny cut herself off.
'You have to understand this.. You have to understand that.. That is all I ever hear you say," Tom mocked.
"What is your problem?!" Ginny asked standing up.
"Everything you say is so secretive!" Tom yelled.
"Tom I really care about you, and anytime I say something, you twist it into some weird thing and start to yell at me!" Ginny said beginning to cry.
"Ginny don't give me that, you have hardly told me anything today," Tom said rolling his eyes.
"All I want you to do is understand.." Ginny said moving closer to Tom.
"Understand what?!" Tom said backing away.
***
And I really really really care (And I care about you so much) A
And I really really really want you (I really do want you)
And I think I'm kinda scared (But I'm scared with every touch)
Cos I don't want to lose you (Cos I don't want to lose you)
If you really really really care (If you care for me like you say)
Then maybe you can hang through (Then maybe you can hang through)
I hope you understand (I hope you understand)
It's nothing to you (It's nothing to you, you)
***
"I love you, there are no words that can describe the way I love you. I've been hurt so many times in the past and I just don't want you to leave me again." Ginny said with more tears falling down her face.
"You what?" Tom asked.
"I love you, and I have always loved you. I don't want to lose you." Ginny said standing still waiting for Tom's reaction.
Tom just stood there smiling, "I knew you did."
"If you knew I did then why did you bring up an argument?!" Ginny said.
"I've always known, and I wanted for you to tell me on your own," Tom said as he stepped foreword and closed his arms around Ginny.
Tom kissed Ginny and held her there for hours.
***
My heart's at a low (low)
I'm so much to manage
I think you should know that (I think you should know)
I've been damaged
I'm falling in love (I'm falling in love)
There's one disadvantage
I think you should know that
I've been damaged (I think you should know that)
***
"So," Tom said, "Who is this other guy?"
"Well that is something else that in time I'll tell you." Ginny whispered.
Tom smiled and walked with Ginny to the Common Room where they sat talking with each other and forgetting the whole day as they waited for the new one.
