Dean Thomas walked over their table with his mother. He said a hi to everyone except Harry and Ginny. In fact he was wondering why Harry and Ginny were not sitting together. He was very much infuriated when she left him for that famous pot-head.

"Hi Dean, how are you," Ginny said loudly. All the heads turned in her direction. Ginny ignored them and smiled at a surprised Dean.

"Um…fine Ginny," he said looking uncertainly between Harry and Ginny.

"Now listen everyone, I want to meet you all exactly after an hour outside Madam Malkin's shop for dress-fitting. Hermione, take care of Gabrielle and don't let her alone, dear. Don't go wandering where you shouldn't be going," said Mrs.Weasley getting up, adding to her youngest son and his two best friends.

"Why don't you join us Dean, Ginny asked Dean with a flirty smile.

"Oh yes, I think that is better, Dean. You can spend some time with your friends while I do some shopping," said Mrs. Thomas. Without even waiting for a reply, she stalked off with Mrs. Weasley, smiling broadly.

Harry was staring at Dean with the utmost hatred ness. He had planned on making up with Ginny, and now her ex-boyfriend turns up. Ron and Hermione were just staring blankly, surprised by Ginny's behavior.

"Ginny, I want to talk to…," Harry never finished that sentence because at that moment Gabrielle turned up next to Harry.

"Harry, why don't we both go for a walk? You can show me all the places," Gabrielle said in a seducing voice.

She looked around at Dean and saw him gaping at her. She didn't pay any attention to him and pushed her long sheet of blonde hair, resembling very much like her sister. Ginny scowled and got up glaring at Harry and Gabrielle.

"C'mon Dean, lets go," Ginny said taking Dean by the hand and pulling him out of the place.

"I don't know why I saved you in the second task. I should have let you drown in the lake or have you eaten by the mermaids," Harry said menacingly.

"Oh Harry, you are so funny," she said giggling, completely missing the point. Harry looked around at Ron and Hermione, both were trying to control their laughter.

They got up and made their way to Fred and George's joke shop. Harry was trying to walk between Ron and Hermione (both weren't happy about it!) to avoid Gabrielle but she was sticking to him like a gum.

He was thinking about Ginny. How could she start things all again with Dean? Why does she think that he was cheating on her? Is that all she trusts him? He couldn't help but think that Ginny was simply being selfish and didn't love him actually. He remembered the time in 4th year, when Harry and Ron were desperately searching for a partner for Yule Ball, Hermione had said that Ginny got over him.

"Harry, are you alright? You look funny," Hermione said, as they entered. He saw that Ron had moved next to Hermione, leaving a spot next to him which was graciously occupied by Miss. Delacour.

"Oh yeah...um...i was just thinking about Ginny and Dean," Harry said, shooting a nasty glance at Gabrielle.

"Harry, she is just..." She stopped at that moment because she didnt want Gabrielle to know anything.

They entered the Weasley's joke shop. Fred and George came and greeted them. Fred put up a fake accent when he saw Gabrielle and gave her a tour of the shop. This gave Harry, Ron and Hermione some time to talk alone.

"Yeah, what were you saying about Ginny," Harry asked Hermione curiously.

"C'mon Harry, isnt it obvious. She is just trying to make you jealous. She would never go behind Dean when you are there."

"What? Why does she have to make me jealous? I love her (Ron made a grumpy noice and turned away) and she thinks it as a joke? "

"No Harry it is not like that," she said, rolling her eyes at Ron.

"I thought she has ditched me after seeing me with Gabrielle. So...so...she is not angry with me," he asked hopefully.Hermione gave him a pityful smile.

"Well, she is pretty mad at you. She knows you wouldnt have kissed Gabrielle on purpose, but its her egoism which wants you to...um...let you suffer without her."

"How do you know this, Harry asked after some time.

"I was talking to her before she came and she is just playing with you to see till what extent you would go. Harry, please dont tell her that i had told you these things. I bet she would never talk to me again if she knew I had told you her plan."

"Ok, so she is not angry with me huh? In that case even I'll play the little game with her. Is it the same

"Harry, I wont let you hurt my sister," Ron said threateningly.

"Chill, mate, you can concentrate back on your things,"Harry said, pointing at Hermione who was examinig the new white coloured-pygmy puffs.

After some browsing of all the joke goodies, they made their way back to Madam Malkin's.

"Harry, let Ron and Hermione walk together. You are such a stupid friend to come in between your friends. Dont you understand they want to walk together," Gabrielle asked, making Ron and Hermione blush and Harry laugh.

Mrs. Weasley was already there, chatting with Dean's mum. After a minute or two, Ginny came in with Dean, each clutching an ice-cream. Seeing Harry, Ginny put her arms around Dean. Harry smirked at them and turned around, as if he hadnt noticed. Dean was confused by the sudden affection.

" C'mon Gabrielle, kets go inside. It is so hot here," Harry said, flashing his teeth.

"I thought only girls try to make others jealous. Even Harry...,"Ron said, shaking his head. Hermione giggled.
