<3<3<3<3<3<3<3 Harry’s POV <3<3<3<3<3<3<3
I awoke groggily to find Ginny sprawled out on the couch with me. I was in an odd sitting position that had caused my neck to hurt greatly and she was lying down comfortably on a pillow. I didn’t really want to wake her, but then I remembered the great news I had to tell her and I couldn’t help myself.
“Gin,” I said softly. “Gin, wake up.” I shook her a little bit, just enough to see her beautiful eyes slowly open and to see her mouth curl into a smile when she saw who it was waking her up.
“Hey Harry,” she said sleepily. “I fell asleep waiting for you to wake up.”
I laughed. “Well, I need to ask you a question….”
Ginny suddenly looked very interested. “Oh yes! I had forgotten. What was it you needed to tell me Harry?”
I smiled. “Ginny, I want you to be my girlfriend, please? Ron has finally given me permission. I want to be with you so bad; I don’t think I could stand another second of being without you.”
As I looked at Ginny, her face was lit up with a smile. I hugged her tightly and said, “So, what do you say?”
She looked at me and said, “Harry, that’s just about the stupidest question I have ever heard; I have been waiting to say yes since I was ten.”
<3<3<3<3<3<3<3 Draco’s POV <3<3<3<3<3<3<3
So, I came to find out, it was official: Harry and Ginny were finally together. I tried to keep out of the way at the Burrow; I tried to eat as little as possible and cause as little commotion as I could until one day in mid-August, Granger, I mean, Hermione came up to the room I was staying in to talk to me.
I heard a knock at the door and I was surprised. “Come in,” I said confusedly.
As Hermione walked in, I was slowly becoming even more confused. “Hello, Draco,” she said pleasantly.
“Um, hello,” I said, trying my best not to sound rude.
“Look,” she began. She was obviously there to talk to me about something that had been bothering her, which was odd. “We feel bad that you stay stuffed up here all the time. You really don’t have to. When we get back to Hogwarts, you can go back to hating us if you really want to, but in the meantime, you’re welcome to come play some Quidditch with Harry, Ron, and Ginny or you’re welcome to do some summer work with me, if any of that interests you. If anything else, you can just come sit and hang out with us. We won’t bite you; well, usually anyways.”
I really didn’t know what to say. After all these years of hostility, they were being nice to me because they knew I had no one left. They really were Gryffindors. I know I couldn’t have done it.
“Thanks, Hermione,” I said politely. “I just feel really awkward. I know we’re not going to be able to be friends when we get back to school, and that really makes me feel bad, so I don’t know if it’s right to hang out with you guys.” I was being honest with her; I assumed that’s what she wanted.
She sat there for a minute and then slowly nodded her head sadly. “I thought you might say that. We just feel really bad that you’re up here alone with no one.”
She stared me in the face and I stared back. I had an odd feeling as though I wanted to give her a long warm hug. I wanted to disregard her blood-status and be best friends with this girl. She was kind, she was giving….
But she was a Mudblood and I was a Malfoy. It just wasn’t meant to happen that way. If it was, I wouldn’t have spent all the years I had being mean to her.
But then again, something had obviously changed about me; here I was at Ron Weasley’s house rebelling against my parents, defying the most evil wizard in the world, probably just sitting and awaiting my death, and still this girl was reaching out a welcome hand to me….
“What the hell…” I thought to myself. I got up and gave her a hug because I knew that things were going to change in my life. For the better or the worse, I did not know; I only knew that things were going to change and that was something I had been wanting for a long time.
