a/n: sorry the update has taken so long! Computer complications…

Enjoy and review!!!

Sitting outside Snape's office was more than enough to make any Gryffindor uncomfortable. Ginny waited while everyone else explained what happened. Is there really anything anyone can even do? I mean, who's going to believe that the golden boy isn't so perfect?

"Miss Weasley, please join us." Snape said from the open doorway.

She followed the professor and sat in the empty chair next to Pansy. "I understand that there have been some problems?" She nodded her head. "Very well. I have already informed Dumbledore, who should be here any second." Ginny opened her mouth to protest. "Don't worry, you're not in trouble. He is merely on his way so we can try to fix this situation."

"Thank you."

"Ginevera, dear, why didn't you tell us immediately that something was wrong?" Dumbledore whisked in looking slightly out of breath.

"I…I didn't think anyone would believe me."

"Well, don't worry. We'll take care of it. All you need to be concerned with is your new dorm."

"New dorm?"

"It isn't safe for you in Gryffindor tower until we get everything straightened out, so until then you should stay in the empty prefect room in the dungeons. I'll have your class schedule adjusted to make it easier to get back and forth. I suggest you and your new friends go help the house elves set up your room."

"But-"

"Miss Weasley, I said to go." Dumbledore motioned the students out of the room and closed the door.

"Well, that was definitely weird." Blaise commented.

"I'm just glad I don't have to deal with Harry anymore."

"You do have to deal with me. Remember our deal? I expect you to meet me in the Slytherin common room at 8:30 sharp." Draco hurried off.

My day can't possibly get any worse or more bizarre. Blaise grabbed Ginny's arm.

"We have to decorate your new room!" He said as he dragged her along.

"Blaise! You're going to tear her arm off!"

He pouted. "But I wanna go decorate!"

"Why don't you go decorate, and Gin and I will go to the lake." Pansy suggested.

His eyes lit up and he hugged both of the girls. "You'll love it!"

"I've never seen a straight guy run so fast to pick out bed curtains." Pansy watched him leave.

"Blaise is something else. Thanks for all your help." They sure have become friends fast.

"You're not bad for a Gryff."

&&&&&&&&&&

Blaise jumped around joyously as the house elves brought in the furniture and curtains he picked out. "She'll love it!" His eyes went wide and he shrieked, "Not there! It'll never look good if you do it like that!"

&&&&&&&&&&&

After walking around a bit, Ginny asked Pansy for some privacy.

"Sure, I've got some transfiguration homework anyways. See you in the common room later?"

"Yeah." Ginny tracked another path around the lake before making her way to the whomping willow. Standing just out of reach she threw pebbles in the air and watched as the willow batted them away.

"Isn't dangerous for a little girl to be all alone?"

Ginny spun around, letting out a quick breath. "Senach."
