Ginny sighed and sat on the bed, contemplating what had just happened. She knew that Draco didn't hate her, but for some reason she had given him some reason to go to Lauren.

Flashback

Ginny sat on the front porch of the Malfoy's plantation home, rocking back and forth on their porch swing. It was soothing, the movement, so repetitive she didn't even hear him coming until he sat down on the swing. She looked over startled and calmed when she noticed that it was Draco. "Hey babe. Finished doing the dishes?" Draco just smiled at her and squeezed her hand. He couldn't help but stare at her. Ginny was beyond radiant when she was in love and she had chosen him.

She turned to him and said "Draco I have something to tell you - " Before she could even get the words from her mouth Draco said "I love you Ginny." He looked at her expecting her response to be along the same lines, but all he got was a hesitation. This made him frown and let go of her hand. "Wait you -"

This time Ginny cut him off saying "Draco you know that I care for you. I really truly do. I just can't let this develop into a full blown relationship right now because I still have some semblance of Tom that I just can't get rid of. I really need you to understand and accept this." Draco stood up off of the porch swing and paced away from Ginny sitting nervously waiting for his reply. "You do realize that I helped you get away from these memories that you keep having. And all of these tendencies that you've picked up from him that I've helped you get rid of? I don't know what to say to you Gin."

He walked away leaving Ginny sitting on the porch swing, with silent tears streaming down her face.

Two weeks later Ginny was searching the house high and low. She had been trying to find Draco for days and had been unsuccessful, moving from house to house and contacting friends. Everything she had done because she realized that she had made a mistake when she told Draco she wasn't ready. It wasn't until after he wasn't there that she felt how much he was needed in her life.

Ginny moved through the house and stopped momentarily when she heard a noise. It sounded like someone moaning. She knew that Amelia and her boyfriend Jason were supposed to be staying at this house and they were horny constantly. Ginny had walked in on them more than once. As she walked up the stairs and moved to the doorway, she noticed that it hadn't been closed all the way. Looking through the gap in the door she saw two people moving together. She gasped when the man raised his head and all Ginny could see was the silver blonde hair.

The boy that supposedly loved her had an odd way of showing it. She silently ran back down the stairs and flew into the kitchen. Ginny hoisted herself up onto the counter, hyperventilating. As she grasped the counter she noticed a pen and paper resting on the counter, begging her to leave a note. Feeling angry she scribbled a note and left it at the bottom of the stairs before fleeing the scene of her ultimate undoing.

Draco walked downstairs in his jeans, going to get some water for him and his insatiable partner. Grinning he jogged down, noticing a piece of paper at the bottom of the stairs. His grin faded as he read the note 'I do truly love you.' He slowly walked to the kitchen, folding the note and placing it in his wallet, knowing that everything he had wanted so badly, he had ruined just as badly.

End Flashback

As Ginny remembered what had passed between the two the year before she threw her legs over the edge of the bed. She noticed the picture on the side table of Draco and Mia. They were the happiest twins that she had ever known, the only twins who had ever wanted to be connected. Even her very own twin brothers didn't want the connection because they thought it invaded each others privacy. Ginny went to stand yet again and noticed that Draco had left his wallet sitting on the table.

She grinned as she thought of the things that she could do with it. All of the credit cards free for her use because trusting Draco signed all of them. Ginny eagerly flipped open the wallet and froze. There was a piece of paper sticking out of the wallet which Ginny slowly pulled out and realized that it was her handwriting. When she recognized it was the note that she had left Draco, Ginny let a huge sob and broke down in his bedroom.

Amelia went through her day as she usually would, as Hermione Granger. It was remarkable the difference in reactions that she got between being the two witches. She giggled making Ron turn his head and look at her strangely. "Sorry Ron. I thought of something that I read earlier in a library book." She gave him a rueful smile and turned back to her dinner knowing that everything would change after dinner time.

She did notice that Draco had shown up and that Ginny was conspicuously absent. Amelia almost smiled but then she remembered that Ron was still staring at her. It disgusted her that he couldn't get out of the stupid school boy crush. Never in a million years would she be caught dead with Ronald Weasley. It wasn't because he was associating with mudbloods, for god sake she pretended to play one everyday! The main reason was because she had seen how he lived, not cleaning the entire summer, and how he had treated other girlfriends.

Out of the corner of her eye Amelia saw Dumbledore stand. "Would the 7th years please remain in the Great Hall? And I would ask everyone else to return to their common rooms." Inwardly Amelia did smile. Lets see everybody call me a fucking bookworm now.
