Coyote Ugly

          Oh, my God, oh my God, oh my God!!!!  I can't believe how many reviews I got.  I'm so very happy to see that everyone (well at least everyone that reviewed) enjoyed the last chapter.  I hope you got my replies from your reviews.  I did take the time to read and send you a reply back.  You're always welcome to email me at alyssamyvine.com or talk to me on instant messenger.  My screen name is RonFan555.  It's kind of cool to talk to people in other countries rather than in my hometown/hick town, which is in the US of A.  Okay, on with the story!

Disclaimer- I just updated and you forgot already?  Sheesh… can you say 'short-term memory?'  Just kidding.  Anyway, I still don't own Harry Potter or Coyote Ugly.

Chapter 11 Ginny's Last Day

          Snack!

          A fluffy something hit Mona's face.  She wasn't quite awake, and she was still out of it.

          Snack!

          "Get up, sleepyhead!  Let's get this day started.  I spent yesterday on the couch so I want to go out today.  Oh, and you so have to tell me what went on after I forced you out.  Next time, wake me up, and buy a new couch.  God, that thing is hard!"  Ginny was standing over Mona with a pillow in hand; ready to strike again if she didn't get up.  Mona groaned.  Apparently, Ginny was feeling loads better because she was about ready to pounce on Mona.

          "Fine, fine, fine.  I'm up." Mumbled Mona as she turned over and tried to open her eyes.  The bright sunshine was streaming through the windows making it hurt to open her eyes.  When she finally did, Ginny was already dressed and ready.  She was wearing a summer dress that went down to her knees.  "You won't want to be wearing that today." Said Mona as she sat up.

          "Why not?  Does it look that bad on me?  I know I've gained a little weight, but really.  I thought it looked decent." Said Ginny.  She crossed the room to look in the big mirror.  As she surveyed herself, Mona spoke up.

          "No, it looks fine, but you wouldn't want to get it wet when we go to the beach, would you?" asked Mona smiling.  Ginny squealed and spun around.

          "Really!?  I haven't been to the beach in ages.  Probably since I was pregnant with Matt.  What are we waiting for?  Let's go!  Hurry, hurry.  Up, up, up!!  Double time, Mona!  One, two, one, two!"

          "Slow down there, Ginny.  Give me a break.  We're meeting the coyotes there at one.  Then we'll leave at six and go to Coyote Ugly at seven.  It's your last night so you better make it good." Said Mona as she started to get ready.

          "I don't think you looked at the clock, but it's twelve right now." Said Ginny grinning at the look on Mona's face after she told her that.  Mona raced to the bathroom.  Never had she gotten ready that fast in her life.  Her bathing suit was a bikini that was turquoise with a yellow lining.  Ginny was wearing a one-piece suit.  It was a regular black and really wasn't too special because Ginny still felt self-conscience about her new weight.  Mona was finished by one, and they headed out.  Deciding that it would be to cold to ride home while they were wet, Mona and Ginny hailed a taxi, and headed for the beach.

          Mona had never seen the beach look so calm before.  Everyone was gone.  There wasn't a person in sight except for four women standing in the sand.  They waved to Mona and Ginny.  It was the rest of the coyotes.  Mona and Ginny walked over to them.

          "Hi guys.  Where's the rest of the world?  Did they all just decide to pack up and leave?  The beach always has people at it on week days in the summer." Said Mona looking around to see if anyone was coming.

          "Oh, that." Said Taylor with a sly grin.  "Well, let's just say that people around here are so gullible."

          "What do you mean?" asked Ginny who was very confused.

          "We told everyone that the beach was unsafe due to certain reasons.  The funny thing is that no one bothered to ask about it.  They just left.  Ah, muggles…" said Kristina.

          "So we have the whole beach to ourselves?  Alright!  I only thought this happened in the movies!  Let's go.  I need a tan and a smoothie.  There are still places open, right?" asked Mona looking toward the snack places along the small boardwalk.

          "Oh yeah.  They just think that everyone went insane, and decided to stay home for the day.  Luckily, they stayed open just for us." Said Megan. Mona was looking forward to a day with just her and her best friends.  Even though Draco wasn't there, Mona felt that she needed just one day with her friends.  Plus, Ginny was leaving tomorrow.  She had to make the most of their day.

          "Okay ladies, let's slap on the sun block and head for the water!" yelled Chelsea.  The others followed her as they looked for the sunniest spot on the beach.  After finally finding it, they laid their towels down, got just enough sun block to keep the sunburn away, and ran into the water.  Lake Michigan felt soft and cool.  Mona's body welcomed the coldness because it was so hot.  For a while, they just sat in the waves, but they soon swam out and began to talk.

          "So Ginny, we barely know you.  Tell us about you cause you may not get another chance." Said Kristina who had just joined them after doing a little sun bathing.

          "Well, what's there to know or what do you want to know?" asked Ginny smiling.  Since Mona had left, Ginny didn't have too many girlfriends.  It felt great to talk to someone who knew something about hair and make-up.

          "What do you do?  Are you married?  Where do you live?  How do you know our little pup, Mona?" asked Megan as she ticked off the questions on her fingers.  Taylor interrupted her.

          "Did you sleep with a guy lately?" she asked taking Ginny by surprise.  The coyote groaned while Ginny just laughed.

          Actually, yes.  I'm married to Harry Potter.  We live just outside of London, and I know Mona, or Hermione as she is formally know as," said Ginny grinning.  "From Hogwarts.  She and my brother were best friends along with Harry, and I have a two year old son named Matt." Finished Ginny.  Everyone, but Mona since she already knew, squealed with delight.

          "On my God!  No one here has even been close to marriage accept for Mona now with her arrogant bastard." Said Megan.

          "Hey!  Hello!  Alex and I are pretty serious." Said Chelsea in a mock pout.

          "Hun, you've never even slept with him.  You aren't any where near marriage." Said Taylor as she studied at her fingernails.  Chelsea blushed a little.

          "So what?  Life isn't all about sex, Taylor.  Besides, look at Mona.  She's got Dan, and they're not sleeping together.  He seems to really like her since he's always at the bar.  Your not sleeping with him, are you?" asked Chelsea looking at Mona suddenly.  Mona laughed.

          "No, I don't think we're that far, and it's Draco not Dan, Chelsea."

          "I was almost married to someone in my old law firm, but I ran away at the altar.  I don't think he ever forgave me… oh well.  He was a bastard anyway." Said Kristina.

          "I could've been married too.  My parents expected me to settle down and lead a normal life.  I guess that didn't work, eh?" said Megan smiling out at the lake.  Everyone turned to Taylor as though expecting her to say that she was to marry as well.

          "Don't even bother to ask.  I'll never marry.  I just like having one-night stands then forgetting the guy.  If I were supposed to marry the man, then we would've had sex twice.  I've never had the same man twice before so I'm off the hook." Said Taylor shaking her head.

          "So what does Matt look like?  You, or does he take after Harry?" asked Megan changing the subject.

          "He looks more like Harry.  He definitely got his messy, black hair, but he acts more like a Weasley.  Matt's always getting into trouble just like Fred and George."

          "Harry got into loads of trouble too." Mona pointed out.

          "And who are Fred and George?" asked Kristina.

          "Are they married?" asked Taylor.  The coyotes told her to shut up and urged Ginny to continue.

          "Fred and George are my brothers.  There's also Ron, Percy, Bill, and Charlie.  Matt always seems to be hungry just like Ron, and he's always getting into Fred and George's joke shop stuff, which they conveniently leave just for him to find.  They own a joke shop in Diagon Alley.  Ron designs racing brooms, Percy works for the ministry, Bill is still in Egypt, and Charlie is still with his dragons.  Harry's an auror.  I own a clothing shop, and do the designs for the clothes."

          "She owns The Majestic!" said Mona excitedly.  There was a chorus of 'really!' and 'oh my God' going around. 

          "Wow!  You guys must be rich.  I hear that aurors make good money." Said Taylor.  Everyone was surprised to see that she was taking about something other than her one-night stands.

          "It even beats out our salary." Said Megan laughing slightly.

          "We're not that rich." Said Ginny looking embarrassed.  It wasn't true.  She, Harry, and Matt lived in a mansion complete with house elves, (Dobby and Winky who finally got over the Crouchs) and plenty of land.

          "I'm hungry.  Let's go eat." Said Chelsea as she began to swim back to shore.  The others followed her to the boardwalk where they chose a small café to eat at.  Once again, Ginny began to feel sick.

          "I think your stomach has something in it." Said Kristina.

          "Yeah, and I wish it would come out." Said Ginny as she held her stomach.

          "No, I think you're pregnant again, Ginny.  You said you're gaining weight and your always sick.  It doesn't take a coyote to tell you the obvious." She said smiling at Ginny.  Ginny just shook her head.

          "I don't think so.  My stomach can be very weak at times. It's probably from traveling and all." Said Ginny as she turned back to her sandwich.  They finished their meal and walked back to their towels to tan.  The rest of the day was perfect to Mona.  It was wonderful just to spend the day laughing and joking just like old time with Ginny and now the coyotes. 

Six 'o clock came all too soon for Mona and Ginny.  In no time at all, it was time to leave.  Mona and Ginny said good-bye to the coyotes.  They would see them later that night so they weren't completely discouraged.  They arrived at Mona's house soon after and went to get dressed.  Ginny put on a pair of jeans and a regular t-shirt.  Mona wore a tight pair of pants and a tight t-shirt that showed her stomach.  At seven as usual, Mona and Ginny were at Coyote Ugly getting ready for the old guys.  Mona let Ginny stay behind the bar again.

The night was going well.  Mona joked around with her customers and the coyotes.  She even got to show what happens to the suckers who order water.  This time, however, it wasn't Draco.  Ginny was very surprised and stunned.  Megan even gave her a bucket to dump on the man.  Finally, to Mona's great delight, Draco walked into Coyote Ugly.  Mona saw him and smiled.  She always looked forward to seeing him at the bar.

"Hey.  How was your beach day?  It sure changed your skin." Said Draco eyeing her tan skin.

"It was great.  We laughed and talked.  It was so nice just talking with girls for the day." Said Mona.

"What? Talking with me isn't good enough?  I'm offended." Said Draco making a face. 

"Oh, I'm so sorry.  What can I ever do to make it up to you?" asked Mona sweetly.

"I'm sure I can think of something, one way or another." Said Draco smirking.  Their conversation was interrupted by Kristina pulling Mona away and telling her that it was time for happy hour.  Wyllie went through the introduction, and Mona began to sing and bar dance.

          The perfect song for the perfect day.  This was one of Mona's favorites.  Singing it could turn a bad day into an extra special one.  Happy hour continued and finally ended.  Mona said good-bye to Draco.  He promised to meet her at the airport when Ginny left.  He planned to take her out to a nice dinner.  There was something that he had to tell her.

          After Draco left, Mona went to the back room and found Wyllie, Ginny, Kristina, Chelsea, Megan, and Taylor talking.  Everyone was sad to see Ginny go.  Even though they didn't know her that well, she felt like one of them.

          "I guess we probably won't be seeing you after this right?" asked Chelsea looking sad.

          "I want to come back some time, but I don't know when.  It was hard enough leaving Matt and Harry.  Not to mention my work." Said Ginny frowning.

          "We sure had fun today.  Are you sure you won't pull a Mona and come be a coyote?" asked Kristina smiling.

          "Trust me, I'm sure.  I don't know how you guys do it."

          "It's natural." Said Megan running her hands through her hair.

          "You can't stay away for ever.  We've grown attached to you, Ginny.  We'll definitely miss you.  So do we get discounts at your store?  I saw a really sweet thong in the window the other day." asked Taylor.  Everyone, but Ginny, took turns hitting Taylor on the back of the head.

          "We should go, Ginny.  Your plane leaves at like ten tomorrow morning.  It's three now." Said Mona as she tried to stifle a yawn.

          "Yeah.  Well, thanks for everything.  This has been one of the funniest few days I've had in ages.  I promise to come back as soon as I can." Said Ginny as she hugged everyone good-bye.

          "You won't be around for me to tell you that I told you so when you find out that you're pregnant." Said Kristina smiling.

          "I don't think so.  There's just one thing that I wanted to know.  Wyllie, why name a bar Coyote Ugly?" asked Ginny.  Wyllie smirked.

          "Well you haven't obviously, but I know Taylor has, but if you ever have a one-night stand and wake up to find that the guy is so ugly that you'd rather just bite your arm off, that's Coyote Ugly."

          "So why name a bar after that?"

          "Because Cheers was taken!"  Ginny laughed along with everyone else.  Cheers was a muggle show, but she had heard of it anyway.  Mona said good-bye as well as she and Ginny walked out the door.  It was the end of Ginny's stay, and it had been a good one.

A/N:  That's the chapter that I think followed the actual movie the most.  Even though there aren't any beaches in the movie, the end was like it a lot.  The song, One Way or Another, was done by Blondie then redone by Mandy Moore.  I didn't have the original so I listened to Mandy over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over until I finally got it.  At least I hope I did.  I'm sorry if there wasn't too much Draco, but I think there needed to be just a little more Coyotes and Ginny.  So until next time!  Thanks for reading and please review!

Lots of Love,
