I don't own Harry Potter or any of its characters, I do however have some Bernie Bott's Every Flavor Beans, so I am well off. That goes for the first chapter for which I forgot to add a disclaimer. Enjoy chapter 2
Chapter 2: An Unfortunate Series of Events
"Ginny, I'm sorry." Harry said as they were getting off the train."
"Sorry, sorry!" she yelled at him. "You're SORRY! I had to ride with Malfoy and his goons the whole ride up. All because you wanted to sit beside some stupid girl. You're right you are sorry. A sorry human being."
"Lavender is not stupid!" Harry replied angrily. "It's not my fault you had to sit with Malfoy."
"Oh it isn't?" She asked turning around quickly to face him and getting louder. "If it weren't for you wanting to sit beside Lavender I wouldn't have had to leave."
"We could have all fit in there." Harry said just as loudly.
"Great! Yay! I could have watched the four of you make out! Wow I sure did miss out." Ginny replied getting into a carriage and shutting the door behind her so that Harry would have to find a different carriage.
"Ginny!" she could hear him calling her.
"I hate boys." she whispered to herself.
She didn't know why but Harry could always anger her so quickly. She really didn't like him, it just angered her that he didn't see her as a girl. She has and will always be Ron's kid sister. She didn't even want him to like her, but it would be nice if for once he saw her as a girl, wait make that a young woman.
The ride to the castle was quick and soon Ginny was walking up to the castle. Harry was once again trying to find her to apologize or yell at her. Which ever she didn't want to hear so she quickly made her way to the great hall.
Ginny looked around the Great Hall. For the first time all day she smiled.
"I'm back." She thought happily.
As overlooked as she was at Hogwarts she loved the school. She loved learning how to do everything possible with the swish of a wand or by mixing some ingredients in a cauldron. She sighed to herself and made her way to the Gryffindor table. She sat down between her brother and Colin.
"Hey Ginny, how was your summer?" Colin asked.
"Oh you know, same old same old." She replied giving him a hug. "How was yours? I missed you."
"Oh boring as usual, my dad was so excited to see the pictures I had taken. You know he loves that they move." he replied grinning.
"Our dads should meet. Could you imagine. My dad the muggle lover and your dad the wizard enthusiast." Ginny said turning her attention to the door where all the first years were entering.
Ginny watched the sorting without much interest only occasionally cheering when Gryffindor got someone new. Not actually caring. Then Dumbledore got up and introduced their new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, and make some start of school announcements. Soon they were all digging into the food that had magically appeared.
Ginny had just finished eating when she heard a someone walk up to her.
"Ms. Weasley I need to see you in my office immediatley." Professor Snape said.
"Ginny what did you do?" Colin asked after Professor Snape walked away.
"I don't know?," Ginny said curiously. "I guess I should go find out."

"You can not be serious Professor!" Draco exclaimed upset. "Tutor the Weasley girl, be her potions partner. She isn't even in my year."
"What year she is doesn't matter, she tested smart enough to be placed in 7th year potions." Professor Snape replied curtly.
"Why me, why do I have to tutor her? Why not her brother or Granger?" Draco asked his eyes burning with anger.
"Professor Dumbledore wants the best to tutor her, and you are the best at potions. Therefore it has to be you. You are to tutor three nights a week for 2 hours." Snape replied.
"But-"
"Don't argue with me, I will take points from my own house." Snape said angrily interrupting Draco.
"Fine." Draco replied crossing his arms over his chest.
"You wanted to see me Professor?" Ginny asked walking into the room, wondering why Malfoy was there.
"Yes you are going to be taking 7th year potions this year. Mr. Malfoy here is to be your potions partner, and your tutor." Snape said coldly.
"I have to work with him." Ginny said angrily.
"He will tutor you for three nights every week for two hours each." Snape continued not listening to Ginny's protests.
"You are both dismissed."
'First I had to ride on the train with the Weasley and now because I am good in potions I have to help the Weasley in potions. ' Draco thought to himself. 'Next thing you know they will want me to take her to the Christmas dance.'
Draco was not happy. Yeah sure he was good in potions but that took a lot of work. He didn't want anybody to know that potions was actually hard for him. He took great caution to act like potions was an easy class, and now because of having to tutor the Weasel he might be found out.
"Draco what did Snape want?" Crabbe asked him as Draco returned to the Slytherin table.
"I have to tutor the Weasley girl in potions." Draco replied with a snarl.
"That sucks man." Goyle said as he shoved his mouth with food.
"Can we just not talk about it." Draco said getting up and walking back out of the Great Hall.
Draco made his way to his private bedroom. Seeing as how he was head boy he got his own room which he thought was about time. Imagine a Malfoy having to share a room. Draco muttered the password and quickly jumped through the door.
"Damn Dumbledore." He said out loud to himself. "If it weren't for him I wouldn't have to tutor her. God why me?"
Draco was pacing around his room trying to relieve some anger from himself. All of a sudden he heard a knock on his door.
"What do you want?" he asked as the threw the portrait open.
"Draco, I didn't get to see you at dinner!" Pansy said pushing her want into his room.
"I repeat what do you want?" Draco asked again. He was quickly losing her patience.
"Oh Draco, I did miss you over the summer." Pansy replied putting her arms around his neck. "I was hoping maybe we could spend sometime together. Seeing as how we didn't get to finish what we were doing the last time we got together."
"Oh yeah." Draco said smiling. "Good think Crabbe and Goyle barged in, other wise I might have actually slept with you."
"How dare you!" Pansy yelled at him as she pushed him backwards. She flounced out of the room angrily.
"Thank Merlin she is gone." Draco muttered under his breath.
He changed into his green silk pajamas and went to bed. Right before he fell asleep a certain face flashed into his head.
