Professor?

Chapter 8

Once Derrick had finished snogging Ginny, he looked at her, at her face, her bruised arms from where he grabbed her, he pulled up her shirt and she winced, he stomach was already tuning black and blue from the punches. He smirked to him self. Ginny had her eyes closed, wishing it would all go away.

"If you tell anyone about this, your going to wish you hadn't met that precious Draco of yours." Derrick said coolly.

"Draco would and could take you down."

"And you thought you were strong enough to take down anyone who would try anything didn't you? I'm a lot stronger then you think. Now break up with him tomorrow at once, give your reason, but nothing that would make him suspect anything, and do it with a straight face. Got it?" Ginny nodded. He's right, I did think I was strong enough for anything. Guess that just goes to show you doesn't it? I'm not having much luck on the guy front am I?

"Good night Ginny, I'll be seeing you." He turned and left, as soon as he did Ginny healed her arms and attempted at her stomach but there was too much and with the limited knowledge of healing she had she couldn't do anything about them. She cried. She finally broke down and cried. She didn't want to, she didn't want to give him that satisfaction. But she cried anyway. She cried because it hurt, cried because she could never be with Draco, cried because she had to be with Derrick, and she cried because she would never be able to look her best friend in the eyes ever again.

-------------------

The next day was Saturday, thank goodness. Ginny slept till noon, got up got dressed and ate. Then she went back to her room and slept, woke up again and ate dinner. That's all she did all day. After dinner Draco came up to check in on her.

"Gin, are you alright? I've only seen you out at meals." He asked her, concerned.

"Yeah." Ginny said. Liar. "I'm just really tired, I think I might have caught the twenty-four hour flu, or something like that." Something like that alright.

"And none of the Slytherin boys attacked your or anything right?" Draco asked, his face darkening.

"No, none of the Slytherin boys attacked me." Ginny said looking down. A boy that I would have pegged as a Gryfindor did. Just goes to show it doesn't really matter what house your in, you can still be a total, blithering idiot psycho and abusive person.

"Good, well I'll just let you get back to feeling better, if you need me just owl me, alright?"

"Yeah." He left and Ginny broke down crying. How am I supposed to break up with him? He's too perfect, too nice, too wonderful, my gosh, I'm such a sap. It's Draco Malfoy for goodness sakes! This should be easy. If only it were.

-----------------------

"Good morning class." Ginny said. If only it were a good morning.

"Good morning, Professor." The class responded. Something's off with her. Ricky Rockchester thought. What is it?

"Well, let's get started on the potion." She put the directions on the board.

"Professor?" a voice came and brought Ginny out of her reverie.

"Yes, what is it Rockchester?"

"Is there something wrong?"

"Why would you think that?" Ginny asked, she hope she wasn't too obvious.

"'Cause you look like there's something wrong, what is it?"

"Nothings wrong, don't worry about me and get back to your potion."

"Yes ma'am." Ricky on the other hand did not stop worrying about Professor Weasley. I'm going to Malfoy about this. Something's wrong and I'm determined to find out what it is.

----------------

"Draco?" Ginny said, they were right outside the Great Hall. He turned. "We need to talk." Oh my word, did I just say the words that are in all the muggle movies to break up? Oh dear. I'm terrible.

"Yeah Gin, what is it?" Draco asked once they were in a deserted hallway.

"Draco, this is really hard to say, but I don't think we should be going out anymore, I think it is distracting us from our jobs and our families are not going to like that we are going out and I just don't think that it would work out between us." Ginny said with a clear voice, not wavering once, she thought that was quite impressive. Draco on the other hand, look down trodden.

"Wh-what?" Draco asked, his voice wavered.

"Do I really have to repeat myself?" Ginny asked, it was hard enough the first time.

"No, I guess not. I got it, but hey, Gin, can we still be friends?"

"Of course, Draco." Ginny smiled a bit, she was hoping that would he his response, well part of it. She walked away.

Draco stood there and watched her go. It hurt; it hurt that she had just done that. It was so out of the blue. They hadn't even had their first fight yet. What was going on? I thought Ginny was stronger then this. I never expected her to break up with me over her family, and work. Am I that terrible? He walked to his dorm; he wasn't so hungry anymore.

I really am sorry that my chapters are getting so short, I'm kind of having writers block, but only kind of. I'll try to update soon, but I am in a theater program and shows are this week. But I'll try to update by Sunday, if not then, then it'll be Monday or Tuesday. Please review!

Oh, and by the way, the reason Ginny is so freaked is because, she was PHISICALLY ABUSED! Yes, I know it's not as bad a rape but I am not going to write a rape fic. If you don't think its bad, just imagine your best friends brother abusing you and making you break up with your boyfriend then tell me if its not bad enough.
