"Well, Trivis, I think we need to tell Ginny," Brittany said, looking up at him.
"Tell her what? What are you talking about?" Travis asked.
"Travis! You know what I'm talking about! Tell her about US! You stupid idiot!" Brittany said, fighting off the urge to laugh at him.
"I think that we should wait. I mean I don't really... I mean... like.." he said, blabbering till Brittany cut him off.
"Well I'm going to tell her. And I bet she already knows anyway."
"Ok....... Wait, do you mean now?"
"Yes! Now! Come on." She said, grabbing his hand and heading to the prefects common room. "Ok?"
"Whatever, my lady. Lead away."
"Travis, be quiet." She said, rolling her eyes.
They made their way to the prefect's common room, joking around and holding hands.

"Harry, do you wanna play chess? Hermione won't play." Ron asked, looking at the boy.
"Umm Sure Ron. Let me finish the last line of my essay." Harry said. He scribbled something down, put his stuff in his bag and went over to Ron and the chessboard.
"Umm. Harry, can I ask you something?" Ron said, not really concentrating on the game.
"Sure, Ron. What is it?"
"Well do you think I should ask Hermione out this weekend?" he asked, looking at the chessboard.
Harry looked up at Ron and thought about that question. He hadn't told Ron about Hermione's and his conversation. What should I do? Well if I were him I would want my best friend to tell me about something like this. I should tell him.
"Harry? Did you hear me?"
"Yea, Ron. I did. Well I need to tell you something before I answer. Remember when I left dinner. Well Hermione followed me. She told me that she liked me more than a friend. I didn't know what to think. I told her that I loved her but not like that. Like a friend, you know? Well Ron, I'm sorry! I didn't know. Honest." Harry said, looking truthfully sorry.
"Gosh, Harry I mean. I like her a lot but I mean.. I know it's not your fault. It's mine. I should have asked a long long time ago. I knew I should have." Ron said, looking defeated.
"I'm sorry, Ron. I really am. It's just. I mean...I'm sorry. I didn't mean it to happen. Let's just play, ok?"
"Yeah, lets just play." Ron said, looking down at the board.
Harry won the game for the first time in forever and Ron went up to bed soon after.
"Goodnight Ron." Harry said.
"Night."
"Um.. Harry. I have a question." Hermione said, looking up from her book and moving over to sit across from him.
"Ok. Shoot." He said, looking up at her. Everyone is asking me questions. he thought. I should set up a booth and make them pay for me time.
"What do you think about a costume ball? As the theme for the upcoming dance?" she asked, looking at him.
"I think it's a good idea. I read this book once and it had all these people in big gowns and tuxedos when they went to a party. And they all had masks on. The girls had feathery masks and the boys had plain ones. I think that would be cool. Don't you? Or were you thinking of a different kinda of costume?"
"That's a good idea. I'll have to ask Draco."
"Draco, why Draco?"
"He's head boy, silly. I don't do everything by myself. It's called a checks-and-balances system."
"Oh.... Well if he agrees I think that would be cool," he said. "And if you wanted to at midnight or something everyone take their masks off and see who their dancing with."
"Hm.. They might not like who they're dancing with. And what about an award for best couple or something. Or craziest couple. Or best dresssed! Probably the last one. Whatever. I'm tired and going to bed. You coming upstairs soon? It's two o'clock in the morning."
"No, I still have a letter that I need to finish. Night Hermione."
"A letter? To who?"
"Um.. To Charlie. I've been writing to him about dragons. I think I might want to work with them after Hogwarts. Well...after the war and everything is over. Night Herm." He said, looking down and began writing.
"Ok. Goodnight, Harry."
She went upstairs and turned to look back at him. She waved at him and went into her room. Goodnight, my love. If you only knew.... she thought as she drifted off to sleep.
Harry stayed up later, scribbling something down on a piece of parchment. He finally went upstairs at about 4 a.m.

Ginny's eyes fluttered open. Where am I ? She looked around the room and saw it was spinning. Oh my head hurts! She stood up. Her vision was suddenly dotted with black spots and she fell back again.
--
Thud.
Draco's eyes shot open. What was that? he thought as he got up. Remembering his surroundings, he looked around for Ginny. He got up and started to walk away from the couch when he tripped on something.
"Omgosh. Ginny! Wake up, Gin." He said, kneeling down and shaking her.
"Ouch! Stop that!" she yelled, waving her arms to get him to stop. " What happened? I got off the couch, then I started to see black dots and fell back down. Then everything went black."
"I dunno. I just got up and didn't see you. I tripped over you."
"Oh so that's what kicked me. Thanks for the nice bruise I'll be getting soon. It really did hurt." She exclaimed, rubbing her side.
"Aww. I'm sorry. Do you want me to kiss it for you?" he said, sarcastically.
" Yeah. It hurts here too." She said, pointing to her lips.
"Oh, really. Does Dr. Malfoy need to make it better?" he said, stepping closer to her.
"Maybe." She answered, looking up at him. She got up on her tiptoes and kissed him lightly on the lips. "There! Much better. Thank you, Dr. Malfoy.I'll call if I need you for this again. That will be all. Go get ready my dear. It tis time for breakfast." And with that she headed upstairs to get ready for the day.
She walked into her room and grabbed a pair of tight ripped pants (of course, black) and a green t-shirt. She changed clothes and did a straightening charm on her hair and put on a little make-up and headed back down stairs. She got to the bottom of the stairs and tripped. She fell flat on her face.
"Arwen! I'm so sorry. You bad kitten! Where have you been?"
"With me, of course." Draco said, matter of factly.
"Well come on! I'm hungry." Ginny said, waving at him to hurry up.
"Yes mam. I'm coming."
Draco came down to the bottom of the stairs and petted the kitten. Then he stuck out his arm for Ginny to take. She did and they went out of their dorms. It was another day and Ginny didn't think about her little faint that morning at all.

Hey to everyone! I got 3 reviews for last chapter! Only 3! Thank you to the 3 who did! For those who didn't.... shame! Just kidding but do review! I love you that did!
Cleopatra-black: Hey! Thanks for the review! Harry as the secret admirer....maybe... I never really thought about him being it at first either! Hah! Silly me! I think I'm going to tell who he is in the next couple of chapters. I can't keep a secret for that long! Heh! Hope ya liked this one!
Mell8: hey—thanks for the review—I know I did not make it clear but I mean for Ron to tell Hermione and Harry not to talk to Ginny at all. And they don't. And Lavender was just the girlfriend for that time for Ron. Mainly to impress Hermione, who was snogging with Harry most of the time. But Ginny pissed Ron off, Ron told friends not to talk to her and I didn't put that part! Sorry for the confusion!
Steffe- Hey—thanks for your review—you sounded excited! I'm glad! Hope ya liked this chapter.
Please Review! It makes it much much easier to write the next chapter! And we might finally meet the secret admirer! Maybe!
Peace and Love to all
