A/N: Okay, I screwed up again, this time I forgot to save a part of what I had typed so here is what I forgot, sorry guys

Recap:" Well, then thank you for being ' honest' but you are still being very nice," she replied trying to regain the feeling in her legs.

They walked together all the way to Charms class, where they once again, took seats next to each other in the back of the room. This class began as soon as it ended, and surprisingly they left with no homework. Next was dinner, and they were all relived that they had no more classes for the day. But Ginny and Harry were also a bit worried, for after dinner there was the duel. And surely one of the competitors would leave with some sort of injury, none of them were looking forward to that.

END of recap

Chapter 13

Accidents

Ginny and Harry walked over to the Gryffindor table and sat down next to each other across from Ron and Hermione.

" Hey Hermione, anything new?" Ginny asked smirking at her

" Yeah, the same thing that's going on in your life," Hermione replied wittingly

" You got promoted to the 7th year too, oh wow I thought that you were already in it, you sure had me fooled," Ginny said, playing dumb with her

Hermione looked at her and tilted her head asking, " You got promoted!"

" Yup, and I got a boyfriend," she replied smiling at Harry who blushed and looked at Ron who pointed at Ginny and mouthed Don't hurt her or.. and then he made a motion like he would strangle Harry. At this Harry cringed and said " Ron cool your jets alright, I won't,"

" Wow, that's awesome Gin, I imagine Molly will be proud," she said as she took a bite of her turkey

" Yes, she was very proud, she actually was there, and so was dad," she said as she herself took a bit of her own turkey

" Mum and dad were there and they didn't even come to say hi, man they must really hate me," Ron said jokingly.

Ginny looked at him in disgust and just rolled her eyes. She leaned over the table and said excitedly to Hermione " Congratulations you actually asked out my brother,"

" No, congratulations to you, you got asked out by my best friend," Hermione said raising her eyebrows at Ginny

" Well thank you, so... has he kissed you yet?" Ginny asked smirking slightly

" No, not yet," she sighed " what about Harry?"

" Nope, but I went in for a hug a while ago and he started to kiss me," Ginny said giggling a little " but I acted like I didn't notice, I didn't want to make him feel stupid or anything,"

Hermione laughed while sitting back as usual, then she began to eat. Ginny did the same but caught Harry glancing at her looking confused.

" What, is there something on my face?" she asked wiping her face off with the large red and gold bordered napkin.

" No, I was just wondering what you and Hermione were talking about, because I heard my name a few times," he replied smiling at her

" Oh, that, I was just asking her how it was going, with her and Ron you know, and she asked me about us," Ginny said shrugging it off and eating again

" Oh, okay, I thought that I might of done something to anger you," Harry replied letting out a sigh that he didn't know he was holding.

" No, I don't think you could ever do anything to anger me," she said as she grabbed his hand and squeezed it lightly.

" Now, don't you think we better get going, Malfoy is going to think we stood him up," Ginny said as she pushed back her plate and turned to Harry.

Harry's charming smile suddenly vanished, and a new worried and anxious look crossed it. " Yeah, I sup'ose we better get going, do you want to stop by our rooms and drop off our bags?" he asked

" Um, yeah we better, we don't want a spell to hit our bags and then ruin our homework, that wouldn't be too good," replied Ginny while giggling slightly

" Alright then lets go," Harry said as he stood up and handed Ginny her bag and grabbed his own

" Guys were going to head off, Malfoy has caused a bit of trouble and we have to go get it over with,"

" Okay, see you two later," Hermione replied waving at them as she turned back to Ron and continued talking.

Ginny and Harry walked out of the Great Hall and headed down the main corridor. When they rounded the next corner the went through a small door and walked over to a canvas with a picture of a bearded lioness and said " Lioness's Pride," and the canvas opened to reveal their common room.

Harry went to the left and entered his room, he dropped off his bag and picked up his wand, sticking it in his robe. Then he went back into the common room and sat down on one of the love seats waiting patiently for Ginny to arrive.

Mean while Ginny was in her room doing her hair, she didn't want her hair to be in her face if she would have to be dueling. Even though she had promised Harry that she'd stay out of the fight, she was going to be prepared so that if she did have to step in there wouldn't be anything to stop her.

She tied her hair up in a tight bun that would've made a good competitor against Professor McGonagall's bun. Ginny sighed and looked into the mirror, she then turned around and tucked her wand into her robe. Then she looked herself over one last time as she exited the room seeing Harry sitting on the love seat with his hands crossed, fiddling his thumbs.

She walked over to him and sat down next to him sighing heavily yet again, " Ready?" she asked

Harry sighed and shrugged a little as he replied " I guess, we better go then,"

Ginny got up and walked over to the door opening it and walking out, she stood next to it and waited for Harry who exited and locked the door behind him and then walked up to Ginny and held her hand as they started off towards the east corridor.

They didn't say a word to each other, in complete silence they walked all the way to the other side of the school, and found a smirking Draco Malfoy waiting for them, with none other than fat boy Crabbe, "yes sir" Goyle, and " hey fucker," Blaise.

Suddenly Harry realized something it was two against one, Blaise and Malfoy against himself. He knew that Crabbe and Goyle were just there because they had to be, so they surely wouldn't do anything to help out.

Harry knew that he was a better wizard than Draco was, but still Blaise and Malfoy against him would be a bit tough. Ginny let go of his hand and looked up at him and said " I am going to help you, I don't care what you want, I want to help," she had such a serious look on her face that Harry just grabbed her shoulders and nodded saying " Just, please be careful, and worry about yourself not me," Ginny nodded in reply and turned towards Malfoy who was by now looking very bored

" You, will duel Harry, and I will take Blaise, no acceptions, deal?" Ginny said straight faced, even though her insides were trembling.

" I do not make deals with Weasel bees and Pot heads," Malfoy replied as he whipped out his wand and pointed it at Harry, Blaise did the same except pointing it at Ginny

" Now for gods sake, let's get this over with," Blaise said smirking evilly at Ginny " Be prepared mini Weasel, for I will not go easy on you just because you are younger," and at that a golden beam appeared shooting directly at Ginny, " Repello!" she shouted thrusting her arm toward Blaise.

The red beam that came from her wand collided with the golden beam of Blaise's wand making a loud... BANG!

Meanwhile Harry was also having a hard time, if he wasn't shouting 'Repello" then he was shouting ' Cruciatus '.

Suddenly Malfoy shot a spell at him and it hit his left arm. Harry screamed in pain and looked down at it, his arm was covered in blood and had began to turn blue.

" EXPELLIARMUS!" Harry shouted at the top of his lungs. The white beam of light flew from his wand like a rocket and hit Draco directly in his chest, making him fly backwards. His wand shot from his hand and because of the strongness of the spell it rammed into the wall and... CRACK! It split directly in two.

Malfoy was knocked unconscious with his mouth wide open. At the site of this Crabbe and Goyle took their chance to run for it, and before anyone knew it, it was just the four of them left in the hallway. Harry quickly picked up Draco's wand and through it at him muttering " No good... filthy... death eater... should burn in,..., " But he was cut off by the shouting of Ginny and Blaise.

Harry looked over at them and noticed that Blaise was cornering Ginny, but she wasn't letting up. He reached down for his wand but noticed that it wasn't there.

Harry began to turn but suddenly was thrown into the opposing wall by Malfoy's fist that had connected with his face, busting his bottom lip.

" You shattered my wand! You good for nothing... " Malfoy began walking up to Harry, but suddenly stopped as he heard two words that would send shivers up anyones spine...

" AVADA... KEDAVRA!"

Ginny screeched as the wide beam of reddish light hit her in her chest.

" No, not Ginny!" were the last few words that she had heard before she was knocked out completely.

Harry shot up and ran over to his unconscious girlfriend, knocking Malfoy over and disregarding all of the pain his left arm was causing.

He leaned down and put his head against her chest listening to her faint, slow, and barely there pulse.

" Well, Blaise, we've done enough. Let's leave Harry with his dead little girlyfriend," Malfoy snickered. With that Harry heard an evil laugh and the lite pitter patter of their feet running from the duel scene.

Harry quickly turned and picked up his wand, he cured his broken arm with a few spells and then picked Ginny up and ran out of the hallway and down another towards the Hospital wing.

He ran faster than he had ever ran in his entire life. The girl that he cared for most, was in his arms, slowly dieing. They had not even been going out for a day, the longest day of their lives, but still only one day and he knew that she was the only girl for him, and that he couldn't lose her. For that reason he found himself pretty much dieing trying to get there so fast.

Finally he reached his long awaited destination. He ran over to Madam Pomfrey and breathlessly said " Ginny... hurt... duel... bad... help... please!"

For a second she just looked at Ginny in disbelief and then she said " Oh, my,... we must lie her down now, over here!" she pointed to a bed in the far corner.

Madam Pomfrey began putting spells on her as soon as she had touched the bed. She was casting them like it was the end of the world. " What spell did this? How did this happen to our head student? Why is your arm bruised like that? We must get the headmaster now!" she quizzed looking at Harry shocked, as she still shot spells from her wand and applied creams and such.

" The spell that did this was Avada Kedavra. Malfoy... Draco Malfoy was making fun of Ginny and I challenged him to a duel," he began looking directly at the floor, because he knew that Madam Pomfrey was giving him that ' you know better' look. " My arm is bruised because Mal- Draco used Quasso Armo on me,"

" I am absolutely ashamed at you, how could you even think of putting this young child in danger!" she shouted " Go get the headmaster at once!"

" Oh, but I am already here," a deep noticeable voice said from behind the two

" This young man has endangered our Head girl! He should be expelled..." Madam Pomfrey started

" Now, now, now, he will be punished, for it is a very immature thing to do, calling a duel, and as our Head students you would think they would know better. But never less I am sure this will all be cleared up soon for you are a wonderful healer," Dumbledore said in almost a too calm voice

" Professor, will she be okay?" Harry questioned, raising his eyes from Ginny's pale face.

" Ahh, I cannot be sure, only time will tell," Dumbledore said sighing and shaking his head

Harry sat there for a while just looking at her poor bruised face, and deeply gashed arms. This was his fault, if he would've just left Malfoy alone, then none of this would've happened, but he just couldn't. He had to be the hero again, he had to seem tough and brave on the outside for Ginny but on the inside suffer in pain and agony knowing that only bad things would result in the two fighting.

" What'll be my punishment sir?" Harry asked trying to keep tears from cascading down his cheeks, it hurt him badly to see the girl he adored in so much pain.

" Three weeks of detention with Professor Snape, should be enough to assure me that you will not do this again. And I suspect that seeing your, girlfriend, I believe in this pain will also result in this not happening again," Dumbledore said quietly looking over the tops of his glasses and down at Harry.

Harry nodded slightly and looked back down at Ginny who seemed to be out of pain for now. Madam Pomfrey had given her pain relievers and bone healers, to ease her pain for a while.

" She will be in a coma for a long period of time,... whether she comes out of it is out of my hands, I have done all in my power to save her," Madam Pomfrey said quietly to Dumbledore who nodded and replied, " Yes, I am sure you did, now let's leave Harry to be with Ginny for awhile," he suggested

" Yes, that will be fine as long as he is out of here by 10:30," she said strictly looking at Harry

" Yes, ma'am," he replied. At that Professor Dumbledore and Madam Pomfrey exited the Hospital wing and retreated to their rooms leaving the two alone.

Harry pulled over a chair and sat down next to Ginny. For awhile he just sat there holding her delicate hand and looked at her. But soon he began to silently cry, it wasn't a very manly thing to do but the girl he loved was dieing. Yes loved. He realized now that he loved her, after she was hurt.

He gently caressed her face with his hand, and began quietly speaking to her limp body, knowing that she couldn't hear or feel his actions. But little did he know that she could hear every word that came out of his mouth, and feel him caressing her face gently, but could not respond.

" Oh, Ginny I'm so sorry," she heard him say " I can never forgive my self now," she wanted to sit up and hug him right then and there, and comfort him. But she couldn't, she wasn't able to move her body at all. She lied there listening to him apologize over and over, and ask her to wake up for over an hour. Finally he gave up and began to stand up, he checked his watch, it read 10:27. He decided that he better go so he leaned down and kissed her forehead gently saying goodbye.

He then reluctantly turned and walked out, heading in the direction of his room. Harry walked down the endless halls feeling quite depressed, he had his head hung low and was ringing his hands, letting his feet drag he seemed to reach the canvas. He muttered the password and entered.

Harry went directly to his room, and changed into a beater and a pair of red boxers. He lazily pulled the covers of his bed down and climbed in. It was going to be a long night for this teenager.
