Summery: True love is said to be so hard to find in many because of some who lead with their heads and ignore the heart. Once Ginny Weasley stepped foot into Draco's life he found it harder to listen to his head more and more. While Ginny is finding it hard to follow her head over her heart. DG
Author's Note: I changed the summery on the site so it differs from the story because it gets cut off as You Gave Me My Life did. There's no Draco in this one...sorry. but maybe in the next chapter there will be.
Anyway, author responses to readers at the bottom. )

Head over Heart
Chapter Two: Hearts Broken
When Ginny finally caught up to Harry he looked flustered, "I can't believe Malfoy would talk about you like that!" He exclaimed the look on his face both embarrass and angry almost sent Ginny into fits of laughter. "Like," he paused trying to get out what he was saying, "Like, you're a scarlet women!"
She smiled trying to fight her grin, "Harry," she said in her motherly tone, "You know I'm like that, don't let Malfoy get to you."
Harry eyed her and sighed before saying, "your sounding a lot like Hermione too, reckon you should stop hanging out with her as much if you want to start fighting with your brother too."
Ginny wrinkled her nose, "I do not sound like Hermione. Besides, she fights with him because she likes it. I do because of anger. Anyways, you're acting more like Ron as well, I'll have you know."
Harry shrugged, "damn," he mumbled, "Ron is going to taking so long."
She grinned, "Race you, then?"
He grinned back, "Only if you can keep up…Ginny!" He cried when she bolted before running after, "you were suppose to wait until we both agree on how we start off the race!"
She laughed and ran up the stairs. She cursed as she fell on the last step to seventh floor with a groan. Harry came up breathless before kneeling over to her, "you alright?"
"Barely," she said as she tried catching her own breath, "don't think I sprained it though. But I lost my book in the fall," she frowned and looked around. It was nowhere in sight.
Harry helped her up, "we'll find it later, Ron's going to be ballistic."
She sighed and walked over with him, "but I always seem to stop at the same spot," she groaned, "You know the part you read aloud?"
He nodded. She mumbled the password and continued her saying as they went in, "I never find out if he marries her or dumps her. I always fell asleep on that part and now I'll never be able to find how it ends!"
Harry snorted and she glared at him, "I know you're upset about this," he said grinning, "But you're sounding like Hermione again."
"And that's a problem why?" A voice asked behind them. Hermione stood her hands on her hips with a pencil behind her ear. Ron came up next to her looking flushed.
Harry opened his mouth and Ron cut him off, "Harry mate," he said, "don't say anything you'll regret. Hermione is not in the mood to play around," he said and she glared at him.
Harry closed his mouth, "I think your right though, Harry," Ginny mused, "Hermione is starting to act more like me as well."
Hermione turned her glare to her and Ginny grinned angelically, "honestly, I'm just trying to do my homework and the lot of you have nothing to do but compare on another."
"But," Ginny said, "I was only teasing," she said before eying her friend, "what's wrong? Ron did you do something again?"
Ron throw his hands up "it always has to be me doesn't it?" He asked before turning fully on Ginny, "couldn't it have been something with Vicky?" He asked spitting out the name like one of the twins Fire Rats that tastes as bad as it sounds.
"Ron!" Hermione said angrily, "I told you his names Victor and it has nothing to do with him!"
Ron turned to her and glared right back, "well, then why were you holding his letter bawling like a bloody baby!"
She pursed her lips and looked away, "since when would it matter to you when a guy has broken my heart?" She asked softly before heading up the stairs.
"Hermione," Ron begged "please, I didn't mean it," he said desperately.
Hermione looked at him from the stairs her eyes narrowed but Ginny saw a tear trickle down her cheek, "you're the one to know how it feels to hurt someone, Ron," She snapped, "I'm surprised you're not supporting him."
"But," he said in a groan, "'Mione, I never hurt you!"
She sniffed, "lot you know," she huffed before walking up the stairs and slamming the door.
Ron ran a hand throw his hair and cursed loudly before glaring at the people around them who had been watching what had happened, "what do you lot think this is?" He snapped at them, "We're not a bloody Quidditch game!"
The all turned muttering things bout crazy Weasley's and what a git he was.
"What did I do now?" Ron muttered as he sulked down into a chair.
Ginny looked over at Harry with a helpless look. Harry cleared his throat, "well, Ron, maybe you shouldn't have mentioned, Krum."
Ginny nodded, "what happened any way?"
Ron picked up a letter and forked it over to Harry. Ginny looked over his shoulder and read:
Hermione,
You are a beautiful girl and smart as well. However, I don't think me being so far can help us move on with this. I wish you so much more then me.
-Victor Krum
"What a git!" Ginny exclaimed and Harry winced, "sorry," she mumbled moving away from his ear.
Ron ran a hand through his hair, "I don't want to fight with her, Harry."
Ginny frowned, "I better go up to her," Ginny headed off and hoped Harry could raise Ron's spirit good enough for Hermione to come down.
Ginny tentatively knocked on the seventh year room. Hermione wasn't suppose to be in there, well, not exactly anyways because her room was next to Malfoy's, being Head Girl and all. When she didn't get and answer she called out, "Hermione? It's Ginny…can I go in?"
She heard a muffled, "no." However, she came in anyways. Hermione was kneeling on the floor with her back to the bed.
Ginny felt awful her friend was like this, "Hermione," She said softly before sitting next to her, "it'll be alright."
Hermione wiped a few of her tears, "I know," She sniffed and turned to Ginny her tears prickling her eyes once more, "why does it hurt so much?"
Ginny hugged her, "well, it'll hurt for sometime and you might not quiet get over it but it'll get better."
Hermione cried onto her arm, "Merlin, I hope so," she said through a sob.
Ginny nodded and closed her eyes, I hope so too, she thought as the thought of how Dean had broken up with her came soon following with the thought of how Harry only thought of her as a friend. Slowly, she joined her crying friend in her own tears as well.
