Shayne hung his head. " I should never have come here."
" Oh yeah and where would you have gone? " cried Hermione. " Here lift up your arms." She placed a warm blanket around him.
" I'm going to have do something about those bruises."
" Leave them " hissed Shayne.
" I cant... they could become infected..."
Hermione scowled and Ginny pushed Shayne back onto the bed. " Listen here Lad... if you intend on bursting into my room at this time of night... you will do what we say... now sit back and take it like a man. It wont hurt."
She dabbed some lotion on the bruises. Shayne howled in pain.
" I thought you said it wouldn't hurt " said Hermione.
" I lied " smiled Ginny and she continued. Picking up bandages and a very sharp pin she began to tie a sling.
Hermione sighed. " I've been horrible."
" What?" said Ginny. Shayne screamed in pain. " Ooops " cried Ginny and she removed the pin from his leg. " Sorry my hand... it slipped."
He looked up at her wearily. " Please get her away from me."
Hermione sat down. " Ron has been to tolerable with me."
" He adores you Hermione."
" Yeah but... I could have been a better girlfriend. I never told him how much I loved him."
" But he know's you do."
" I have to make it up to him. I'm such a screw up Ginny. Look perfect Hermione the one who gets straight A's and manages to keep her life in order cant even keep her relationships going. Oh how he must have suffered."
Shayne sighed. " You're not a screw up... Ron does like you and I think you are perfect for each other. I ... wish..."
" Yes " said Hermione.
" I wish you luck... both of you."
" What he really meant to say " added Ginny. " Was that he wishes he would meet a girl as great as you and that he could be blessed as much as Ron is."
Hermione blushed. " Ginny dont be so nosy."
" Well it's the truth... God why do you make relationships so confusing. If you love the girl tell her. It's obvious ... she likes you too."
" Well I know she is in love with Ron " said Shayne. " So I must step back."
" It was fun " said Hermione. " But you are right... we both have two different paths to follow and mine crosses over with Ron's."
" Aww thats very cute " said Ginny. " But please spare me the details of your love lives. Meanwhile what are we going to do with you Shayne."
Hey guys. Okay from Wednesday onwards for about a week and a half , my updates will be very scattered. My first exam starts Wednesday at 9.00 (Irish time) God help me. So I wont be able to update as much since I am studying(Well trying) Our exams are the equivalent to the British GCSE Exams , so I'm pretty nervous. I have a long essay on Shakesperes Romeo and Juliet to learn within six days. Less than a week to go , so I will try to get as much chapters posted in the next few days as I can. So good luck to anyone else doing exams as well.
Oh and I will be continueing the story into their seventh year. I was inspired last night with a plot so I have plans which will involve Virginia , Ginny Harry and the rest of the characters in and out of Hogwarts.
Raemie.
