A/N: You have one more shot! Ginny's not turning him green, or into a frog, or kissing him. Come on! We know you can come up with it.
September 1, Seventh Year
Well, the Feast tonight was one, big, stupid affair.
First of all, Graham refused to talk to me on the train.
"It's not that I don't like you, Jerry, but there's a rumor going around that you're gay," he told me before running off to his group of female admirers. He is NOT going to be getting that broomstick he wanted me to get him for his birthday, I can tell you that!
So, I had to eat with Stella. She was quiet, which wasn't exactly shocking, but still a bit depressing. I tried a couple of times to make conversation, but the most I got was when I mentioned Draco.
"So, Draco's gone. At least I won't have two people hating me this year."
Stella looked up at me quickly. She gave me a very evil smile. "You haven't looked up at the Head Table yet, I see," she sneered.
So, what else was there to do but look up. And when I did, I saw an unmistakably blonde head. "But... but he can't be a professor! He's too young!"
Stella laughed at me and said that he was a assistant to Snape this year.
"Are you happy about it?" I found myself asking a few minuets later.
She didn't answer my question, but I didn't give it a second thought then. "On the bright side, Ginny transferred into a different school this year."
For a moment I was happy. No more Ginny. No more embarrassing encounters in the hallways. No more being afraid of where I looked in class, thinking that she might be glaring at me. No more excuses. I could lead a perfectly normal life. Get a girlfriend. That is if they didn't think I was gay.
I spun around to look over to the Gryffindor Table. Ginny was still there. She was laughing at something the girl across from her said. There was an arm around her shoulder. The arm of Colin Creevey. Looks like they could find other people to substitute for me.
"And for those few seconds, how did you feel?" I heard Stella say in my ear. I didn't answer. I didn't have to. Stella was sure that I would say that I felt absolutely horrible. But I'm still not sure.
Let's recap. Today, I was called gay, found out that someone who hates me is still going to my school, realized that I don't want Ginny around me, and found out that she has replaced me with stupid Colin.
Stupid day.
A/N: What is Ginny going to do to Jeremy? It's not that difficult! What does she know about him that many other people don't! If you figure it out we'll put you in the story.
