*TAKES PLACE DIRECTLY AFTER "Loneliness"* Ginny struggles to deal with her feelings towards Seamus. Thoughts of Harry are always floating in the back of her mind, but Seamus is persistent to get her attention and prove that he's better than the elusive Mr. Potter.

Ginny has been left at Hogwarts by Harry when he goes off on his mission. She, feeling alone, finds comfort in a certain Irishman.

AU: Draco Malfoy is sick of the Slytherins, the Carrows and the dark lord. So he decides to try and join the DA...even if it kills him. I do not own Harry Potter.
