LEAVING YOU

Ginny approached Harry cautiously.
"Harry, I need to break it off with you."

"What!" Harry stood up in a flash. "But why? Since when?"

Ginny blushed. "Draco."

Harry reddened.
"Draco Malfoy… What did he do to you? Did he threaten you? Did he hurt you? I'll kill him!" He started for the portrait hole, but Ginny held him back.

"I love him." She announced.

"You what!" Harry turned on a dime.

"I love Draco."

Harry searched Ginny's eyes to find out the truth, and after a second, burst into laughter.

"You got me for a second!" Harry chuckled. "You love Malfoy; no, even better, you're leaving ME because you love Malfoy. It's preposterous! Not quite convincing enough Gin. Not only are you both in different houses, but he's my rival. Now come sit down…"

"ARG!" Ginny was clearly frustrated. "Is it so hard to believe? Will no one understand that the Malfoy isn't all there is to Draco? He's just like nay of us, only he's been brought up wrong. Harry, I don't care if it's so hard for you to believe. I don't care that he's a Slytherin and I'm a Gryffindor! When it all comes down to it, no one cares what house you were in when you've grown up and left this place! No one cares, Harry! I love Draco Malfoy! I am IN love with Draco Malfoy! And do you know why, Harry Potter?"

Harry just paled, and he shrugged.

"Because he's everything you're not!" Ginny yelled. "The more I think of it, the more I despise everything about you, and adore just the opposite! So no matter what you do, no matter if you care or not, I'm leaving you for Draco.
