Chapter Seven - The Toughest Trials

Harry and Draco floated almost side by side on their brooms as they looked for the snitch. They were only ten feet from the ground or so and Draco couldn't tell how they were going to find the snitch from there. It was well known that he always waited for Harry to spot it before he actually bothered to go after it.

Ginny looked down at the two boys after she scored yet another goal. This was her chance. She descended until she was only fifteen feet from the ground, just above them, and then pretended to be looking around. It was so perfect. The bludger came at her and she saw it out of the corner of her eye, but she pretended she hadn't. It hit her in the hip and she cried out in pain, falling off her broom.

Draco and Harry looked up when a shadow blocked out the sun from above. They saw Ginny plummeting towards them.

"AHHH!" They both shrieked, rushing out of the way. Ginny landed face down in the sand with a thud. Immediately Pomfrey was prying her up off the ground, making lame noises of concern. She spat out dirt angrily and stretched her limbs out to make sure she wasn't hurt. Her hip was a bit sore, but that was the extent of the damage...

Harry touched down next to her and hugged her fiercely. "Oh Ginny! Are you okay?" he gasped into her ear.

She shoved him away and glared at him. Draco touched down as well, smirking. He sauntered over to her, grabbed her around the waist, dipped her low, and kissed her passionately. A collective gasp arose from the crowd and then some booing. Then a tense silence. She fell to the ground yet again when Harry bulldozed into Draco's side.

"CHEATER!" he screamed, punching Draco repeatedly. Draco started punching back and the two of them rolled around on the ground for several minutes in a two-person brawl. The professors and students watched with amusement, a physical fight was so rare... Ginny felt something in her hand and she realized that Draco had handed her the snitch as he was kissing her. She started to smile, but then stopped herself. It was bloody well nice enough for him to get the snitch and leave her face down in the dirt! Both of them were there! Both of them could have caught her but neither of them did! They could both go to hell for all she cared!

She kicked some dirt at them as they rolled by her and then stormed off the field. What she need was a good cold shower to make her forget about them! Neither of them would lay a hand on her again if she could help it! Boy was she fuming!

The cold water hit her full in the face as she sputtered, turning her face away. Wow, it really was cold. It was fine enough to think of a cold shower in the heat of the moment, but it was a different story once you actually had to take one. And for some reason, she felt she had to take one even though it was miserable. Her hip was growing darker by the minute and she scolded herself for being so stupid as to put her well-being on the line for a couple of boys. She was disgusted with herself.

Unfortunately, a girl can never enjoy a cold shower. No, cold showers always mean hell. The locker room door burst open and she heard people run in. "Ginny!" Harry cried, then let out an 'oof' as he ran into a wall. And by 'ran into' I really mean Draco pushed him.

Before she could think to do anything, Draco tore back the shower curtain, picked her up in his arms, and then peered around the corner of the shower stall to see where Harry might be lurking. He didn't seem to notice Ginny hitting him viciously wherever she could reach. "Unhand me! My anatomy is showing!" she screeched. He quickly covered her mouth with his hand and looked seriously into her eyes.

"Shh! Harry is out there..." he mouthed.

Ginny bit down on his hand whle hitting him wildly in the face. He pulled back his hand and Ginny shouted, "HARRY! HARRY!" Harry was on them in a second, tackling Draco to the ground. Ginny fell to the hard shower floor with a smack and groaned with pain. She felt tears sting her eyes as the pain in her hip began to swell to a raging pulse of torture. She grabbed her towel, wrapped it around herself, and ran away from them.

"Gin!" Draco yelled after her, trying to get up. Harry pulled him back down to the floor.

She was sobbing now, each step painful. But she wouldn't let them hear her, so she stuffed her mouth with some socks as she got dressed. Just as she finished, Harry rushed around the corner and nearly knocked her over. His lip and nose were bleeding freely and his glasses were incredibly bent and broken. "I won Ginny!" he proclaimed.

"I don't care!" she screamed, attempting to get past him. He gathered her up in his arms and smiled.

"I knew you wouldn't care if Malfoy beat me in Quidditch. I knew all along that your love for me would survive even the toughest trials.." he said in an inspirational voice. She tore herself out of his arms and looked around the corner to see Draco face-down in a pool of blood.

"What have you done?" Ginny wailed, running over to Draco. She knelt down over his limp body and rolled him over. Looking down at him, she turned very still. Slowly slowly she turned around to glare at Harry over her shoulder. "Get out," she rasped. "Get out! Get out! Get out!" she screamed, throwing her hairbrush at him. He caught the brush and ran from the room, scared.

"This is all my fault!" she wailed, getting the Harry Angst Syndrome herself. Quickly, she got up and fled from the devastated locker room.

Draco awoke fifteen minutes later in a hospital bed. He easily spotted Pansy sitting on the bed next to him, staring creepily at him. She was humming a tune and it sounded perfect, making him yearn for Ginny's off-tone singing. He wondered how long she had been staring at him and decided he didn't want to know. "Where's Ginny?" he asked in a soft voice.

Pansy smirked, "Oh don't worry Drakie, I got rid of that whore."

He sat bolt up right and a huge wave of blood flew out of his nose, splattering over Pansy. She leaned forward and kissed him before he could say anything. A loud clattering sound of glass hitting marble made him jump and he parted from Pansy to see Ginny gaping at him, the potion she had been carrying now dashed upon the rushes.

"You again!" Pansy hissed. Draco pushed her off the bed and she yelped as she met the floor.

"I don't think you-"

"Good bye Draco," Ginny cut him off. "Good bye for good!" She turned on her heel and tore out of the room in blind fury.

Harry snuck out of the shadows and grinned at Draco. "Hey thanks," he said enthusiastically before rushing after her.
