A/N: This is it. The final chapter, but like I said the sequel will come and I promise to have it out ASAP. But first, I want to write a little more of my other stories, but I promise that it will come out by the end of the month at the latest. BTW, any pairings introduced in this chapter will be continued in the sequel, but just a little warning, I'm about as fond of the Ron/Hermione pairing as I am the Harry/Ginny pairing, so if you don't like my chosen pairings, don't read it. One more sequel warning, I may (not definitely) include slash, if I do it will be extremely mild and probably only mentioned in passing several times. But like I said, I'm still considering it; it may or may not end up happening. Anyway, here's the last chapter, I hope you like it and I hope you review!

P.S.: This chapter contains some 'colorful' language, so be warned. Also, I don't remember if JKR ever mentioned what year Romilda was in, so in this, I'm making her a fifth year, if I'm wrong, then I apologize. Finally, I included a small reference to another popular book series in this chapter, see if you can catch it.

Chapter 6

Forever

The plan was foolproof. Absolutely perfect, there was no way in hell it wouldn't work. I mean, we had thought of every little thing that could ruin it and had figured out potential solutions to them all. There was nothing in the world we hadn't considered.

Or so we thought.

The one thing we forgot we ended up finding out from an extremely interesting source, and it happened in what had to have been the most awkward moment of my life. I wouldn't really bring that up, but the rest of this would not make much sense otherwise, so let's start at the morning of the day our plan was to be set into motion.

Harry and I were walking down the halls going over the plan for the eightieth time (Hey, we wanted to make sure it went exactly as planned, of course it was all we talked about.), anyway, it was almost noon and I had started to notice that I was the one doing most of the talking, Harry was just kind of staring off into space. "Uh…Harry?" I called.

He didn't say anything. "Harry?" I called again, hoping to pull him from his stupor; unfortunately he was still 2,000 light years away. So by now I was getting kind of annoyed, so I did the only reasonable thing one could do in a situation such as this, I leaned over and screamed into his ear "HARRY WAKE UP!"

That got him. Harry snapped right out of it. "What? What?" He shouted.

"Sorry, it's just you seemed to be kind of out there just now." I explained.

"Oh…sorry" He said sounding a bit embarrassed.

'You know, he is really cute when he's embarrassed.' I couldn't help thinking. Of course, I didn't say that out loud. "Don't apologize, just tell me what's wrong." I said instead.

Harry didn't say anything; he seemed to be searching for the right words. Finally, he spoke. "It's really kind of silly but…I'm worried about Hermione."

That wasn't really what I expected. "Why?" I asked genuinely curious.

"Well, she came back really late last night, later than me even, her hair was messier then usual and she seemed out of breath. Ron isn't really thinking much of it, but I'm starting to think you were right about her having a secret boyfriend." Harry explained.

"Hmmm…" I thought aloud, "Did you try talking to her?"

"Nah, she rushed up to her dormitory after given us a very rushed good night, and you know I can't go to the girls' dormitory." Harry replied.

"True" I murmured, "Well, maybe you could talk to her about it the next time you see her."

Interesting that I said that at that moment in time, because right after that we heard a thump come from the hall we were about to pass, the hall were, coincidentally, Harry discovered the truth about Ginny. We initially thought it might be them again. But then we heard a female voice that did not belong to Ginny moan. I didn't recognize the voice, but judging by the expression that had appeared on Harry's face, he did.

Without warning, he began walk very quickly towards the hallway, I followed him after a second. We walked down the hallway until we reached an open doorway were a boy and a girl were currently snogging like crazy. The girl was definitely Hermione, I recognized her from last year, the boy's face we couldn't see, that is until Hermione open her eyes a little and spotted us, gasped and broke the kiss, causing the boy to whirl around to see what she was looking at.

You know what's funny, when I suggested Hermione having a secret girlfriend to Harry the day before, he told me that the only way she'd keep something like that from him and Ron would be if she were dating Draco Malfoy. It's interesting to note because that's the first thing that came to my mind when Malfoy turned around and found himself staring at the face of one extremely shocked sixth year boy. Harry looked from Malfoy, to Hermione, to me, and then back at Malfoy. By then his shock had become anger.

He looked slowly at Hermione, "Hermione?" he asked slowly and softly. "What the hell are you doing snogging Malfoy?"

I had never seen a girl look so nervous, I really felt bad for her then. She took a few deep breaths and then, trying very hard to sound calm, answered "H-Harry, I can explain all of this, Draco and I have been seeing each other for the last few months and-"

"You're dating MALFOY? MALFOY! I can't believe this, Hermione, how can you date this guy, he's probably just using you to spy on me for Voldemort! He's a lousy Slytherin git, how could you date this scum?!?!"

"You know I'm right here don't you?" said a very annoyed Malfoy.

"SHUT UP MALFOY!?!?!" Harry yelled at him.

"Don't yell at him Harry" Hermione cried. "It isn't like that, he isn't a death eater, and he doesn't even follow Voldemort, not anymore, he's changed."

"BULLSHIT! Of course he does." Harry roared.

At this point I decided to step in, even though I'm not really good with confrontations, I had to do something. "Okay, I think everyone just needs to calm down." I said while squeezing my way in between Harry and Malfoy. "We need to discuss this rationally."

"And just who are you?" Malfoy asked rudely.

"I'm Alexis Vane, I'm friends with Harry." I said.

"'Friends?' What do you mean, I've never met you." Said Hermione.

She had me there. I looked at Harry, and he looked at me, us both silently agreeing it was time to spill the beans.

In matter of twenty minutes, both Hermione and Malfoy knew the whole story, which included our revenge plot. They were a very good audience. When he finally finished Hermione looked stunned, and Malfoy was, surprisingly, smiling.

"Well, I must say, for a Gryffindork and a know-it-all Ravenclaw, that's very Slytherin of you." He commented after we disclosed the plan.

"…Thanks I think" I answered quietly.

Hermione suddenly stood up (By then we were sitting) and started pacing. "That little harlot, I can't believe this." She ranted.

"I completely agree" said Harry, "That's why we're doing this, to teach those no good two-timers a lesson."

"It is a good plan, but don't you want people to know about what they did?" asked Hermione, confusing me slightly.

"Of course, that's why we're doing it in the great hall at breakfast where everyone can see." I said.

"I don't mean just that." Hermione responded, "I meant on a much larger scale…"

That night, I snuck slowly out of Ravenclaw tower and made my way to the Gryffindor tower. I gave the fat lady (who was half-asleep, which was lucky since this way she wouldn't question me as to who I was.) the password and enter the tower. I slowly crept up the stairs and soon found Ginny's dorm. I opened the door as quietly as I could and found her sleeping on the bed to the far right. I tip-toed up to her dresser and opened it to find about two dozen designer outfits…and immediately felt sorry for Harry's bank account. Needless to say, I greatly enjoyed performing all the 'alteration' charms on the clothes. I was finished in a few minutes and closed the wardrobe doors. Turning around I noticed that Romilda was sleeping in the bed opposite Ginny.

That night, I learned that there are just some opportunities one just can't pass up.

I entered the great hall with Kristen the next morning, my stomach tied in knots because I knew there was no turning back now. Only two sights could calm my nerves, and both could be found at the Gryffindor tower. The first was Harry, whom I could tell by the wink he sent my way that he had completed his portion of the plan. The second was Romilda, who thanks some fancy charm work (I don't mean to brag, but I'm about as good in charms as I am bad in potions which is saying something) and much to her obvious dislike, now sported lime green hair (I love magic.).

I sat down with Kristen who was (of course) talking about quidditch and glanced anxiously at the doors waiting for Ginny or Matt to enter. I looked over at Harry, who looked equally antsy. Finally, we held our breath, as Ginny walked in, Matt trailing maybe twenty feet behind her. I saw Ginny practically float over to Harry and sit down next to him, giving him a really stupid smile. Matt usually sat at the Ravenclaw table since we started dating, so he walked over and sat down next to us. I put on a fake grin and said. "Hey sweetie, how are you today?"

"Not good, I can't find my broom anywhere, it's gone." He said.

"Really? Well I'm sure it will turn up eventually." I said, on the outside I looked concerned, but on the inside, I had on an evil little smile, because I knew that his broom would indeed turn up very very soon.

Exactly ten minutes passed before it began, and when it did, you'd better believe me and Harry were the first ones to start laughing hysterically, soon followed by every other student present. For at exactly 10:00 am, both Matt and Ginny suddenly grew huge elephant ears. Matt gasped, Ginny screamed, and we just laughed. Finally the laughter subsided…but immediately started up again once their skin suddenly turned blue. The looks of horror on their faces were priceless. They both tried to run out of the hall at the same time but were stopped short when the doors suddenly shut tight (courtesy of Harry and yours truly.) They turned around to face the crowd of students now surrounding them, me and Harry having squeezed our way to the front. Ginny and Matt immediately looked at us.

"H-Harry, baby, help me." Ginny pleaded trying to look as pitiful as possible.

Bitch.

"Well, this is quite odd." Harry commented. "You both seem to be having the same problem, I wonder, perhaps you have some kind of illness, or got in the way of a bad spell."

"Or maybe you haven't been completely honest lately." I put in, enjoying the moment immensely.

"Yeah, that could be it, how bout it 'Gin' anything you haven't told me?" Harry asked grinning evilly at his soon-to-be-exp-girlfriend.

"What? Of course not." She said loudly.

Then they both suddenly grew another eye on their foreheads causing more laughter.

"Really now," I said and looked at Matt, "How about you Matt? Anything you want to tell?"

"No" he said fake smiling at me.

Now their skin went from blue to and deep shade of purple.

"Are you sure?" said Harry.

"YES" they shouted.

What happened next is my absolute favorite. Their clothes began to change until Ginny was dressed like a common prostitute, while Matt wore a pink dress with a big bow in his hair. The laughter that followed was probably not heard somewhere in Asia. But that's not all, their not purple skin turned bright pink and words began to form all over their faces. On Ginny's were words like 'WHORE', 'SLUT', 'SKANK, and 'TART'. The words on Matt's included 'SCUM', 'DOUCHEBAG', 'PIG', and 'LOWLIFE'. The laughter was deafening.

"How about NOW?" Harry yelled.

"WANNA TELL THE TRUTH?" I shouted.

"NEVER!"

"TELL!"

Ginny was crying now and Matt had never looked more humiliated. They were on the verge of cracking and we all knew it. They just needed one more push. It started slowly, and they didn't seem to notice at first, but they couldn't not notice it when huge chunks of hair immediately began falling to the ground. Ginny saw it and screamed but it was to late, they were both now completely bald.

This was it.

"Just end it Ginny, tell us all the truth, I know all about it, now they have to." Harry said firmly.

"We've known a long time now, and we have for quite a while, why don't you just admit it already?!" I yelled.

And that was it. At the same time they both screamed out "ALRIGHT!"

The whole place fell completely silent, all eyes on the two people in front of them.

"Now then, have you been seeing each other behind our back?" I asked.

"Yes" they answered softly.

"I'm sorry, we couldn't quite hear that." Said Harry.

Ginny looked at him helplessly and said loudly, "Yes!"

Everyone gasped.

"Say it" I said to Matt.

He looked at me defeated and cried, "Yes, I've been cheating on my girlfriend with Ginny Weasley!"

At that moment, all of the spells vanished, except they still had no hair they looked just like they did before. It's a very old and complex charm I had once found in an advanced Charms book and I knew it was perfect. I don't think I'll ever forget that moment when the truth finally came out, now there was only one thing left to do. I turned to Hermione and nodded. She smiled and called out, "Okay, you can all come out now!"

On cue, about ten Daily Prophet reporters threw off their invisibility cloaks and began to take photos of Ginny and Matt, who looked more and more angry and humiliated every second. Meanwhile, Rita Skeeter (whom according to Hermione, owed her one) appeared before them, a quill rapidly writing on floating parchment next to her. "I can see the headline now!" She was saying, "'Potter's girlfriend cheats: all the dirty details reveled wait until the readers off the Daily Prophet read that!"

Looking out into the crowd, I noticed Kristen's jaw had practically dropped to the ground, and Ron Weasley's face was about as red as his hair, it was a shock for everyone present. Two respected Hogwarts students reputations trashed, possibly forever.

Man did it feel good.

"Oh, and by the way Matt." I called.

He looked angrily up at me. Out of my robes pocket I pulled at small bag. I turned it upside down and out fell a pile of ground up wood. "I found you broom."

Words cannot describe the look on his face then, you should have seen it. "Oh and Ginny, I would take all those outfits I bought you back, but they've all probably turned into hippogriff droppings by now." Said Harry.

I really love magic.

The whole crowd was laughing and cheering. I could see Malfoy standing next to Hermione laughing his ass off and Luna, who wasn't laughing, but had lost the dreamy expression on her face. I didn't see anything else, because then, the door opened and Harry pulled me into the hall.

I immediately jumped into his arms. "WE DID IT!" I screamed. "WE ACTUALLY DID IT!"

"I know, I can't believe it either." Harry said happily.

He put me down and I couldn't help but stare into those gorgeous eyes of his.

"What are you staring at?" He asked grinning, making me blush.

"Nothing" I said looking away and smiling, "You just have nice eyes."

I don't know why I said that, but somehow it just felt right.

"Hm…Really, well you know what, I've always really liked your eyes too." He answered.

I looked at him again, "Really?"

"Yeah, I've thought that since I first saw you last year." He replied.

My heart swelled to the size of a balloon at that. "You-you remember that?"

The look on his face grew serious and he pulled me closer to him, "I could never forget your face." At whispered.

And with that, he closed the gap between us.

It felt like something inside of me exploded, Matt had never kissed me like this, this was truly unbelievable, I don't know how else to describe it. He kissed me so softly, yet so passionately. I began to kiss him back and then we just stayed that way for the longest time. I heard footsteps coming up and opened my eyes. Romilda was trying to exit the great hall and was coming towards us. I closed my eyes and waited until I heard her gasp in shock and knew she had seen us.

I pulled away and looked over at her. "Do you mind baby sister, we're kind of busy here." I shouted at her at then pressed my lips back on Harry, smiling inside when I heard her shriek of fury and them storming down the hall, shouting various obscenities.

This truly was the most perfect moment of my life.

It's been a year now since that day, and I still can't believe all that has happened. Harry faced Voldemort for the final time and came out victorious. We did suffer some losses, including Neville Longbottom, who died taking down Bellatrix Lestrange and avenging his parents, as well as Hagrid, who single handedly fought off two fully grown giants saving about twenty other lives in the process. Both were given hero's funerals on the Hogwarts grounds.

Malfoy, or Draco as I have come to know him by fought on our side and killed his father himself as well as several other death eaters. It turned out that his father had abused him and his mother (whom he loves very much) for years and now he had finally gotten his revenge. He and his mum now live in a small mansion outside London and are much happier. Harry and Ron eventually accepted his and Hermione's relationship (though they did give him hell at first) and are actually starting to become friends…or something like that.

Ron was shocked to learn of his only sister's true colors, but eventually started to get over it. He and I started hanging out a lot and judging by his current attitude towards me, I think that he has started to consider me something of a sister figure. Likewise, I think of him now as the brother I never had. He is now dating Luna Lovegood, we were surprised at first, but they seem like a good match, I think it will work out for them.

Hermione and I have become good friends and often study together. She and Draco are happy that they don't have to hide their relationship anymore and she is currently spending the summer at his place.

Ginny and Matt…well needless to say their little fling didn't last, and they never fully recovered from the humiliation, especially when the story appeared in wizarding magazines all over the world. I don't know where they are now and frankly I don't care, I'm just glad I'm out of Hogwarts so now I don't have to see them anymore. Of course, neither of them ever looked me or Harry in the eye again but still…

As for me and Harry, we are still together and I have never been happier. Every time we are together feels like magic, we still haven't done it yet, but that's one of the great things about Harry: His willingness to wait for me.

I don't know what the future holds for us, but as I gaze at the promise ring on my finger, I realize that now matter what happens, I'll always have Harry by my side.

Forever and ever…

THE END.

A/N: Well, that's the end. I hope you all liked it, and I apologize if the kissing scene was too cheesy. See you at the sequel! Artemis out:)
