CindaSwan- Thanks for reading during that crazy break on the website. Appreciate it, especially since you reviewed as well. I read a ton, but didn't review. Maybe I'll be inspired by your nobility.

Pia O'Leary-Well, you're partly right, but do you really think if Harry polyjuiced himself then Ginny wouldn't kick his butt? Well, you'll just have to wait and see, I guess. hehe

Chapter 22

The next morning, Draco awakened to a terrible thunderstorm. He went down to the deserted common room to write his reply to Remus's letter.

Remus,

I was taken aback by your letter. It was certainly unexpected. After thinking about it and discussing it with Professor Dumbledore, I do believe that you would make my mum very happy. So with that said, I give my blessings and look forward to developing a relationship with you.

He looked over what he had written and decided to add one more thing.

If I ever find out that you have mistreated her in any way, I will not hesitate to curse you into oblivion.

Sincerely,

Draco

He went up to the owlrey to mail his letter as everyone else in the tower started to wake up.

When he sat down to breakfast in the Great Hall, Ginny came and sat next to him. She kissed him softly on the cheek and asked where he'd gone to so early. " I needed to send a letter to Remus. Thanks for helping me figure out my feelings on it." She blushed and said, "I think I should be thanking you for last night." Just then Ron and Hermione walked in and sat down across the table from them. Draco blushed as well as he shushed Ginny.

"So, how was detention last night, Sis?" Ron asked. "Magical." Ginny replied and she and Draco burst out laughing. "What exactly did you do to wind up in detention? Colin said you turned Professor McGonnagall into something. You didn't really, did you?"

"Why Ronald Weasley, are you accusing Colin of lying? I'm shocked!" It was scary how much Ginny sounded like Mrs. Weasley. Ron turned 5 shades of red and mumbled, "Oh, no, sorry." He stayed pretty much silent for the rest of breakfast.

The storm was so bad that Care of Magical Creatures was cancelled for the day. That meant a free morning for Harry, Ron, Hermione, Draco and Lavender. She asked Hermione if she could hang out with them because Parvati had a different class during this period.

The group made their way back to the common room to work on Snape's essay. They were also discussing the DA. "Harry do you know if we're going to start back up soon?" Ron asked.

"I don't know. We haven't even had Defense Against the Dark Arts yet. Maybe the teacher will let us form a club. Who is the new teacher, do you suppose?" This led to about ten minutes worth of speculation with everyone agreeing that whoever it was couldn't be worse than Umbridge. Hermione spoke up, "Well, we find out this afternoon, don't we? Actually we can ask Ginny during lunch. She's there right now." At the mention of Ginny's name, Draco and Harry both got very dreamy looks on their faces. Lavender was the only on to notice and thought to herself, I can understand Draco's look, after all, they're dating, but what's up with Harry? I will have my work cut out for me, I guess.

The group sat down at a large table and everyone pulled out parchment & quills. "Ok, "Mione, what is the use of cockroach ears? I didn't even know they had 'em." Laughed Ron. So, Hermione explained all about them and everyone wrote while she talked. Lavender couldn't keep her mind on her essay. She kept thinking about Harry and she wanted him to look at her with that same dreamy expression he had for Ginny.

Harry's mind was wandering as well, but his was wandering up to his ingredient list he had made for the polyjuice. He had already planned to go to Hogsmeade over the weekend to buy the ingredients. Fifth years and up were allowed to visit as they wished.

Ok. Sorry , I know this is super short, but well, I just ended it this way,sorry.
