Ginny woke up the next morning, with her eyes sore from crying the night before. She had had a nice dreamless sleep. She felt great when she woke up. Then she remembered the day before.

She was going to get over Harry once and for all. Even if she had to ignore him. But that was going to be harder then she imagined.

When she was in the Great Hall eating breakfast, at the opposite end of Harry, Professor McGonagoll came up to her.

" Weasley I have your detention here," She said holding up a piece of parchment. " I am very disappointed in you, all of you. Four in one day!" She exclaimed.

" Professor," Ginny said cautiously. " What is my detention?"

" You'll be cleaning the trophies at eight o'clock sharp." She said before turning on her heel and going to tell the others their detentions.

Later in the day Ron and Hermione found Ginny outside sitting underneath a large oak.

" Hey Ginny." Ron said when they got near her.

" Hey." Ginny answered.

" What do you have to do for detention?" Hermione asked.

" Cleaning trophies." Ginny said. She felt like she needed to be alone. She needed to plan a way to stay away from Harry.

" Had to do that once. Was hard work that was. My arms hurt for days afterwards." Ron said rubbing his arms as though he was remembering the pain he had suffered.

" What do you guys have to do?" Ginny asked.

" Ron and I have to clean out the bedpans." Hermione said as Ron groaned. " And Harry has to clean the trophies also."

Ginny looked horrified. She was trying to get over him yet she was going to have to spend a whole week with him.

At eight o'clock sharp Ginny entered the trophy room. Harry wasn't there yet. 'Good' She thought. ' He won't show then this will be much easier.' Ginny walked over to some polish and rags. Five minutes after cleaning Harry came lazily in.

He obviously hadn't known that they'd be working together. His eyes widened and his mouth dropped.

" Ginny." He muttered.

Ginny ignored him and kept cleaning. She could see him glancing at her. She didn't dare look at him. She was after all trying to get over him.

After about an hour, and both arms sore, Ginny realized she was allowed to leave. She set down the polish and rags and headed towards the door. Harry did the same and headed after her.

"Ginny will you listen to me?" He called from behind her.

Ginny kept walking, trying to ignore his shouts but she kept seeing his face flash before her own.

"Ginny, listen please?" He asked.

This reminded Ginny of the day before when Cho had been calling after Harry.

Ginny turned around very fast. So fast in fact that Harry bumped into her. She quickly pushed him off of her.

"Though you didn't like having a stalker, Harry. Well guess what? Neither do I!" She shouted her voice filled with rage. "Listen Harry, and listen very closely because I'm only going to say this once."

Harry stood with a shocked expression on his face. Ginny had never seen him at a loss of words.

"I liked you before. I though I had gotten over you. But I was wrong. I once again felt something for you. Something stronger then before. But then I realized how you felt. So I'm giving up Harry. Can't you just let me do that?"

Ginny turned and ran away.

Why was she always running away? Was she that afraid of her fears that she had to run away from them?

Finally she looked back and realized she was very far away from the trophy room. She stopped running and put her hand to her side. At least she wasn't crying this time.

She wondered if she had been too hard on Harry. 'No' She thought. ' That's what I need to do to get over him. Finally let him know how I'm feeling.'

She turned the corner and ran into Dean Thomas.

She fell backwards and fell to the ground, while he only staggered back a bit. He looked angry but then he realized it had been Ginny who had run into him. He smiled and helped her up.

"Hello Ginny." He said nicely.

"Hi Dean. Sorry about-"Ginny started apologizing but Dean cut her off.

"Don't worry about it. Are you all right? I heard about Michael then I was in the hallway when the whole "Harry Malfoy" thing happened."

"Oh." Ginny said. She had been so busy watching Harry and Malfoy fight that she hadn't realized that there had been other people in the hallway.

"Well yeah I'm fine... now."

"Oh that's good Ginny." He smiled sweetly at her.

Ginny realized why she had liked him so much before. He had always been a perfect gentleman. And he never treated her as "Ron's little sister". They had ended on great terms.

They had broken up about a week after going out, deciding they weren't ready for a relationship. But still talked and were very nice to each other.

Ginny though of something. She really did like Dean. But not as much as she like Harry. ' That's that point' She scolded herself. ' I'm trying to get over Harry.' Maybe seeing Dean again would put old flames for Harry out? She decided there was nothing to lose.

"Umm Dean?" She asked nervously.

"Yes?"

"I was...well... wondering if you wanted to go back out?"

"Oh Ginny. Wow!" He said stroking the back of his neck. "Well I was going to ask you that. Sure I'll go back out with you. Only if you promise it will last longer then a week.

Ginny laughed. "Promise." She said embracing him in a hug.

Ginny closed her eyes happily.

She was so happy in fact that she hadn't seen Harry watching them from the corner.

Ginny came into the common room holding Dean's hand. Ron and Hermione turned to look at them. Ron's jaw dropped when he saw them, while Hermione stood still, her face emotionless.

Ginny kissed Dean on the cheek and headed towards Hermione and Ron, as Dean headed to go hang out with Seamus Finnegan.

"Hey." Ginny said happily.

"You seem happy." Hermione said. Obviously Ginny's emotion was very noticeable.

"Too happy." Ron said shooting evil glares at Dean.

"I am. Dean and I have decided to go back out."

"WHAT!?" Ron yelled. "What about you and Harry? I thought things were starting to move forward."

"Obviously you guys aren't as good of mates as I thought. Ask him why I'm giving up once and for all." Ginny said before heading up to her dorm, her once happy mood now sour.
