My Lovely Shouts:

Summerxkiss2: I almost surprised myself with Draco kissing Ginny. I wasn't really intending to have him like her, but the idea jumped up on me when I was writing, so I used it. My main point in that chapter was to convey to my readers that Ginny is NOT a little girl anymore. She swears, cheats (even if it was an accident), and more will be coming about her. Thanks for your lovely review and all the support!

Celi: I'm glad you liked the end. It has been my experience that not many people like the Ginny/Draco shipping. I'm not really sure if it's going to be a full-fledged ship or whether it's just going to be Draco pursuing her. Thanks for reading!

Lafawnduh4: I'm glad you think my fic is interesting. If it wasn't you would be bored and no one would review, and I probably wouldn't be writing. Being a big reader myself, I would bore myself if I was writing a boring fic.

Marauder Angel: Thank you so much for reviewing! It makes me sooo happy! I am updating this as fast as I can. At the moment, I'm trying to get about as many chapters up as I have for "Love in All Forms." Once I finish that, I'm going to start just alternating writing chapters.

Jessie: What exactly do you mean by outlandish? Like unexpected, pertaining to the title? I enjoy constructive critisism just as much as I enjoy compliments. Even with the story's outlandishness, I'm very glad you liked it.

Cordy: I'm sorry the first chapter was a little cheesy. I wrote it within ten minutes because I had a little idea spring on me and I didn't really have a lot of time to edit the story. So, by the next few chapters, I got the hang of it a bit more and brought the real story into play. The first chapter was really just setting more of a starting to see how things were not going to be very usual. Ginny WAS kissing Malfoy back, if the rest of you were wondering. But since Cordy and I are such BIG Tom Felton fans, we could understand how someone could get absorbed in a kiss from Draco. If Draco is as sexy as Tom, then who wouldn't! But he is still evil. I am also planning to write a story centering around Draco, because I LOVE TOM. Tee hee. I may also write a real-life kind of interactive fic about you meeting Tom. You as in, everybody. And then reviewers will tell me what they want to happen…I don't know. Anyway, I'm rambling on WAY too much! On with the story!

Chapter 5

Late Night Thoughts

That night in the girls' dormitory, Hermione and Ginny were both think about their men. Well, actually, both were deciding who they wanted their men to be.

"Draco Draco Draco," Ginny thought to herself. "I know he can be bad, but is something hidden in there? I felt more than just lust in his kiss. I felt pain, need of love, and a need for acceptance. Maybe I should give him a chance and see if he is really mean all through. Although I hate to admit it, Draco is very good looking (A/N: how could you NOT see that coming…TOM IS SEXY!) and once in awhile, I can see a more than evil side of him. But then there is Dean. Dean is very nice and I wouldn't want to hurt him, but I'm not sure if he is what I really want in a guy. Can he satisfy what I'm looking for. He is pretty boring and not very surprising. In fact, he is really quite predictable. I bet if I went out with Draco, I would never know what was going to happen. Plus, the real reason I went out with Dean in the first place was to show Ron I'm not a little girl anymore. I feel very badly, but I can't continue to lead Dean on. Ok, so I'm breaking up with Dean, but I'm not sure what I'm going to do about Draco yet. I will have to see what happens. Maybe be his friend first."

Hermione was also thinking of changing her decision. "I guess I sort of always liked Ron. NO! What am I talking about? We are just friends! Even though he has sexy hair and beautiful eyes! (A/N: for us, the sidekickers) We can fight a lot, but I know it is only because he cares about me and doesn't want to see me hurt. Sure, we've had our awkward moments and sometimes I wonder whether we are just friends. Seamus is nice and a good person, but I don't know if there's a spark. I don't feel the same around him that I feel around Ron. With Ron I am always nervous and giddy and very excited. With Seamus I just feel comfortable and secure. But isn't that what I wanted, comfort? I think I would much rather have a spark. Something special that I want to hold on to. I really care about Ron. But do I love him?" While still thinking, Hermione fell asleep.

The boys' dormitory would have also been noisy if someone could read minds. Ron's mind being one of the noisiest. Harry was asleep so soundly he could have been knocked unconscious. The other person thinking however, was Neville. He had seen Luna giving Harry little looks all day. Him and Luna had been going out a few days now, and she was his first girlfriend. It would be so upsetting to loose her to the famous Harry Potter. After all, this was the first time he had actually been seen! And Luna was so nice and pretty. Her long platinum blonde hair, her eyes that were a bluish purple, her…(A/N: I'm going to stop now.)

Hermione tossed a few more times, but finally, she got up and went down to the common room to do a little reading. Surprisingly, Seamus was done there.

"Hey, 'Mione," he said.

"Hi Seamus! What are you doing up so late?" she asked.

"Thinking," he answered.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Um…I know this is a little bit awkward, but I have to say something. Today wasn't a date. It was just me wanting to get to know you better in a friendly way. I don't like you that way and I'm really sorry if you took it the wrong way. I better be going now," he said. Seamus rushed back up the stairs and closed the door.

Hermione's eyes welled up with tears that she could not locate.

A/N: Sorry so short, but the next chapter is going up in about 2 seconds, so bare with me. I have to do a little work on it still, but I am almost done with the next chapter!
