Chapter Nine

Therapy starts

Ginny's POV (The POV will chang half way through this chap.)

I sat down in the chair across from Malfoy. I snuck a glance at him. He was actually pretty good looking.

"So, Ginny, you know why you're here?"

I smiled. "Cause mum and Dad are worried I'm gay."

He raised an imaculate eyebrow. "Are you?"

I smiled again. "I really don't know. Probably part of my self denial."

"Weren't you always after Potter in school?"

"Yeah."

"What happened with that?"

I hung my head, still smiling slightly. "I guess I realized it wasn't going to happen."

"So you turned to girls."

"Part of the depresion I guess."

"I remember that you also were a chronic liar in school."

"When did I lie?"

"All the times you called me a self centered, bad looking prat."

I grinned. "What part of that isn't true?"

He faked a wince. "Touche. No matter, the question is, did you let that carry over to later life?"

"Observant aren't you?"

"I'm learning. "

"Keep it up and you might get something out of me yet."

"But not today?"

"No. Not today."

Ron's POV

I didn't hate him because he liked my sister. That was a plus, but not the only reason. I didn't like him because he had everything easy. I didn't like him because he had made fun of me through out school. I didn't like him because he had actually changed, to a degree. I didn't like him because he was trying to help me.

I didn't like him because he was telling me there was something wrong with me. I didn't like him because I was starting to believe him.

Stupid therapy. Started easy enough.

Draco: "What's wrong with you?"

I glanced over at him. "What?"

Draco: "No need to get on the offense. Why did your parents sign you up?"

I expected a deragatory comment but none came. Instead he looked halfway interested.

"My parents think I need to come to terms with my anger. Their words, not mine."

"Obviously. Why would they think that?"

I shrugged. "I attacked Ginny."

Draco: "Why?"

"She was laughing at me. Aren't you supposed to be asking me how that makes me feel?"

Draco: "Why? I already know that Ginny laughed at you. This made you mad. So you attacked her."

Ok, that was eerie. "How did you do that?"

Draco: "Are you always angry when people mock you?"

"Well, generally, yeah."

Draco: "Wow. How did you manage with me in school?"

"Hermione and Harry restrained me a lot."

Draco: "Hmm. You can't be pleasant. Merlin only knows why Granger likes you."

"What?"

Draco: "Merlin are you dense."

(A/N: ah, long time since updates. I put the Dracos in to keep people from getting too confused. Hope it helps.
