Ginny was relaxing in her bedroom reading the letter from Dean that had arrived that morning.

Dear Ginny

How was your trip back from Hogwarts? I hope Ron didn't give you any trouble when he found out we were dating. If he does you should threaten him about telling Hermione how he feels or something similar. I miss you already Ginny and it has only been one day. Please write back soon.

Love Dean

Just as Ginny finished the letter the door burst open. Ginny turned saw that Ron was standing in the doorway.

"What do you want Ronald?" she asked coldly.

"What did that letter say? If he as much looks at you wrongly I am going to kill him." Ron said

"It's none of your business what my boyfriend said to me Ronald. If you want to know ask him yourself"

"I will ask him then" spat Ron

"Breakfast is ready!" yelled Molly from the kitchen.

When Ron heard this he turned and went downstairs. Ginny hid the letter under her mattress and followed. Ron and Ginny ate silently both glaring at one another. Molly's instincts told her something was up between Ron and Ginny.

"Why are you two glaring at one another?" asked George obviously having no tact.

"This twit of a brother is trying to control my life. He tried to read my private letter from Dean because he thinks it says that he wants to shag me" spat Ginny

"You are my sister, I have a right to know what is happening. It is to protect you."

"No you don't Ronald. You are supposed to support me in the decisions I make not oppose every last fucking one."

"Virginia Weasley, watch you language" scolded Molly

"What about you and Hermione, Ronald? Does she know that you're a control freak?" Ginny said softly. Ron blushed.

"Oh obviously not. I wonder what would happen if I told her"

"Don't tell Hermione please." Ron pleaded

"Ok. I won't tell her, but if you interfere with my love life again she will get a letter the next day" Ginny warned. Ron nodded and then left the table.

"Bloody sister" he muttered as he returned to his room. A plan started to form in his brain on how to tell Hermione. He decided to tell her himself. That way she would be proud of him admitting a fault and hopefully not leave him. As soon as Ron reached his room he sat down at the desk and started to write.

Dear Hermione,

Are you okay after the ministry incident? Ginny is healed up as it was only a sprained ankle. I'm better now as well after that curse was removed from me. I hope to see you soon as I miss you already. I couldn't bear it if you had died at the ministry. I would have killed myself if you had.

I also have to admit something to you. If I am in a relationship with someone I feel the need to know what they are doing all the time. I thought I better tell you rather than you just finding out Hermione. I hope that you still love me after this. I don't like the way I want to control you Hermione. Can you forgive me for my stupid reactions?

Love Ron

Ron sent the letter with Pig before he could change his mind. Ron returned to the desk and started to write another letter to Dean.

To Dean

Stay away from my sister. She deserves better than you. If you write to her again I will personally curse you into next year and you may be without your manhood. Remember STAY AWAY FROM MY SISTER

Ron

Ron went and borrowed Errol the family owl and sent the letter to Dean. He then walked into the lounge and relaxed on one of the chairs.

"Why are you so happy all of a sudden?" asked a soft voice from the doorway.

"Oh Ginny are you going to tell me what is in that letter?"

"No I am not Ronald. What my boyfriend writes to me is none of your bloody business."

"That son of a bitch won't be your boyfriend much longer" said Ron smugly, "I just sent him a letter warning him away."

"WHAT!" Ginny yelled, "YOU THREATNENED DEAN DIDN'T YOU?"

"Yes, so what" he scoffed.

"You just made a big mistake Ronald, if Dean does dump me because of you I will find someone who you wont approve of, ok" Ginny said quietly. Ron could hear the coldness in her voice. Ginny stormed upstairs and went into her room. Ginny pulled out an extendable ear that she managed to swipe off her brothers. She put it on and heard Ron muttering "God I hope she doesn't pick Draco."

When Ginny heard this, she pulled out the ear and smiled too herself. She knew who to go for if Dean dumped her. Ginny spent the rest of the day completing the holiday work that had been set, she wanted to finish it so she could have more fun. Ginny had completed the transfiguration and potions by lunch, which Molly brought up to her room. Ginny easily finished the DADA work because of Harry's training in the DA. She had finished about half the assignments by 2pm. Ginny returned downstairs wanting some fresh air. Ginny walked into the garden and sat down on the bench. Ginny relaxed for about an hour until Ron came outside with the twins to de-gnome the garden. Ginny went back indoors and returned to her room. Ginny resumed the work and by about 5pm had finished all apart the astronomy and divination.

"Dinner ready!" Molly called up

Ginny left her room and walked downstairs to the kitchen. She sat down and ate her meal in silence constantly glaring at Ron again. As soon as it was possible Ginny returned to her room and started to write in her diary. At about 10 Ginny went to sleep.

The next day Ginny was woken up by an owl tapping on her window. She looked at the time and saw it was almost midday. She opened it and the owl held out its leg for Ginny to remove the letter that was there. As soon as Ginny had removed it the owl took off again. Ginny opened the letter and started to read

Dear Ginny

I feel that the relationship isn't going to go well. I do like you Ginny but the relationship doesn't feel right. I'm sorry Ginny but I don't love you. Please find someone who will stand up to Ron and the rest of your brothers.

Dean

Ginny sat on the edge of the bed just staring at the letter.

"How dare they" she whispered to herself, "How dare they try to control my life" That line of thought was interrupted my Ginny's door bursting open. Ron saw the letter in her hands and lunged forward to grab it. Ron managed to grab it but knocked Ginny back. Her head it the wall as she fell back on the bed. Ron not noticing retreated to his room with the letter. Ginny was nearly unconscious, she managed to stand up and staggered downstairs to the kitchen. Molly was there cooking breakfast. She looked up and saw Ginny leaning against the door with blood at her feet. Molly abandoned the food and rushed over to Ginny. Molly saw where the blood was coming from and healed it, she then gave Ginny a blood replenishing potion. Ginny grabbed a small breakfast and left the house, telling Molly she needed time alone. Ginny was angry she hated the over protected ness of her brothers. She hated Ron for hurting her and she hated her mum for not trying to find out what happened. Ginny caught the knight bus to go to London. After about half an hour the bus arrived in London. She went into the Leaky Cauldron and fire called her mum so she knew where she was. Ginny went for a walk round diagon alley.

"Hello weaslette" drawled a voice. Ginny span and saw Draco Malfoy standing infront of her. "What are you doing here?"

"Nothing" Ginny answered. Ginny restocked her money pouch from the vault Harry had given her. At about 7 Ginny returned to the cauldron and ordered a meal. She had told her mum she was going there the rest of the day. By the time Ginny finished eating it was about 9pm Ginny went and called the knight bus again. The bus took longer going back. At about 10 she was still on the bus. She looked out and saw wizards appearing. She quickly asked if they could stop so she could get off. Ginny exited the bus which then disappeared. Ginny waited and eventually heard someone walking, she couldn't see anyone but she saw the footprints they were leaving. She followed them around the back of the house and into the room, she heard them go upstairs, she quickly followed being as silent as she could. She saw a room open and waited behind the door. She heard voices floating out of the room. She was waiting, watching silently when she heard a voice she knew

"I wish to serve you, my lord"

Ginny quickly looked in and saw Harry kneeling in front of Voldemort. Ginny made up her mind instantly. When Snape saw Ginny enter his eyes went even wider. He was shocked when she walked in and then knelt next to Harry.

"I wish to serve you my lord" she said softly
