By the way, Dumbledore is still alive in this story
THAT NIGHT
Ginny hopped into one of the horseless carriages that would take her to Hogwarts. Malfoy got into the carriage after her then the carriage took off up the hill.
"Ginny, I've got to talk to you" Draco said to her
"Uh, sure" Ginny replied sounding a bit unsure
"Tonight after the feast, meet me in the Prefect's Bathroom" Draco said urgently
"I dunno Draco you know we're not allowed to meet with people from other houses at night. I can't afford to not be a prefect" Ginny said
"Well just say we're taking a bath" Draco said with a sly grin.
"Oh all right meet you there" Ginny said finally giving in, and settled into the chair. They soon arrived at the Gates of Hogwarts, the castle was a wonderful sight the lights were on and silhouettes were in the windows. When the carriage got to the school's steps Ginny leapt out and went to find Luna, Draco got out a little while after Hermione saw him get out of the carriage.
"Ron, did Malfoy just get out of that carriage?" Hermione asked Ron.
"Yeah, why" Ron replied
"Well Ginny got out of that one as well." Hermione pointed out
"Well their both Prefects" Ron said, not catching onto what Hermione was trying to say.
"Uh, guys we'd better get inside" Harry butted in noticing that everyone had gone inside and that they were the only ones still outside.
"Oh no" Hermione exclaimed "we're late for the ceremony" and they sprinted to the great hall while sliding on the squeaky clean marble entrance. Ginny saw the doors burst open and saw Hermione, Ron and Harry all running in, she rolled her eyes trust them to be late.
"ladies and gentlemen, students and professors, it is with sad feelings that I say the Sorting Hat is no longer at this school therefore Professor McGonagall will sort the students out" Dumbledore exclaimed.
A murmur went around the school no sorting hat Ginny thought to herself. Professor McGonagall stood and called for silence then went through each name slowly and tried to decide what house to put them in.
Ginny heard her tummy rumbling and tried to block it out. After what seemed like forever to Ginny McGonagall finished and she sat down again and Dumbledore rose.
"I have just two words to say before we eat and here they are DIG IN!" Dumbledore finished. At these exact words food appeared on the plates in front of them and pumpkin juice filled their goblets. Yum, Ginny thought to herself as she helped herself to some sheppards pie.
When everyone was finally full, Dumbledore rose again and addressed the school "Filch ahs banned more objects for the whole list go to his office door and there is a list of objects, also that no-one is to enter the forbidden forest, well I'm sure that you have all had a very long trips so I will let you go to sleep now, Goodnight"
The first years looked lost and Ginny remembered that she was meant to show them the common room and dormitories but I have to meet Draco oh well I'll be late "First years over here, oi, come on, follow me" and all the first years scuffled to her glad to have someone to show them what to do. Ginny led them to the Fat Lady in the Pink Dress and told them the password then scurried off to meet Draco.
"You're late" Draco said when Ginny finally entered panting for breath
"I had to show the first years where to go" Ginny said "what do you want?"
"I want you Ginny, I have tried denying it but I can't, I love you" Draco said.
Ginny was stunned "What!" she finally blurted out
"Did you not hear me?" Draco asked
"I heard you, I'm speechless, what about Pansy?" Ginny exclaimed
"What about her?"
"Well I thought you were going out with her"
"I was but I broke up with her, that's what we were talking about on the train." Draco explained
Ginny was speechless "I don't know what to say" She said
"Just say yes" Draco said
"Ok, I'll go out with you," and she gave him a peck on the cheek and exited the bathroom leaving Draco looking so happy that it was scary.
