Ginny returned the smile"I guess I should have heard the story before I picked to buddy up with Bradley. I'm so sorry I helped him. " Ginny could see why they were fighting. " You can't always be perfect. I know I'm not. " Ginny found it easy to talk to Darius she was glad they were friends.

Daruis nodded. "Yeah, human faults. But Bradley isn't bad, he just jumped to conclusions without asking questions. And it's alright that you helped him, although it made me feel like Bradley had a bodygaurd, which was the last thing he needed," Darius snorted with a small, humourless laugh. "But it seems like most of the time people are too ignorant to understand Bradey and I's situation, and they are drawn to him just because of his face and quick wit. They don't care that he openly abuses students he thinks lower than him, or weaker, they just care if he'll pay attention to them. Everyone wants attention. And I know that there is more to socializing than being accpeted, it's about who you should avoid, watch out for, and how you should get to know people before you judge them. Every single person I've met judges me on my appearance, or the things I say when angry, and immediatly they choose sides. People aren't black and white, or good or evil, contrary to the popular belief of most hogwarts students," Darius sighed. "I'm glad someone is finally just sitting down and talking to me, hearing both sides of the story. Even though you chose Bradley's side before getting to know me, it's nice to see someone apologizing and genuinly enjoying my company." Darius looked at Ginny thankfully. "It's nice to talk to someone. I've been alone most of the year so It's nice to have a friend to confide in."

Ginny smiled " I know all I wanted to be was accepted and I don't really know why. I know now that if I had heard both sides of the story I wouldn't have picked Bradley. Your cool and easier to talk to any way. Thanks for giving me a second chance. I know that Bradley was wrong on so many levels to you and so many others. I see that now I just wished I'd seen it a little earlier. I really like talking to you." Ginny said blushing at how stupid she must seem. She has rushed to judgement so quickly.

"Yeah," Dairius sighed happily. "It's fine now. Did you hear that Bradley and I aren't on bad terms anymore? We're not friends, but at least we're not killing eachother. Good news, eh?"

"That's great news. Now he won't have to worry about you killing him. " Ginny giggled. " I'm happy for both of you, Something good came out of all of this."

"Well, I guess. But now I have no anger outlet," Darius grinned. "Actually, Bradley's changed since you last talked to him. He's grown more accepting. He laughs at things instead of becoming offended. And i've learned when I shouldn't use my Head Boy powers and when they are needed." Darius' squinted one eye, realizing something. "Oh yes! I haven't told you!" Darius fumbled in the pocket of his Ravenclaw robes and pulled out a massive, solid bronze pin with blue lettering, and proudly flourishing it into Ginny's view. "I've been promoted to Head Boy!" he said with a cheer.

Darius stood up and did a small happy dance as well, only less coordinated. "I have to put it in my pocket because it's so heavy it's ripped holes in two of my shirts, and in one of my ties! It's not very sensible to have made it this heavy." Darius smiled with satisfaction and continued, "But this badge gives me permission to give detentions without teacher's permission. heh heh. But I'll be good and I won't abuse my power."

Ginny laughed at Darius dancing with her. "I'm glad you won't abuse your power. It looks like you have learned from this exprence with Bradley also. I'm happy for you." Ginny said takeing a drink of her water. "So how are classes going for you?"

"Well," Darius pondered, trying to dance around the question as to not stain his new badge, "Er, I seem to have been out for the past few weeks because of all the injuries Bradley has caused me. I had an automatic pass, so I..." Darius crossed his legs nervously and then uncrossed them. "I haven't gone to any classes for a while. But I am going back soon, although I heard rumors Charms class is canceled? And then Defense Against the Dark Arts never really started...Potions is empty because everyone avoids Snape and Transfiguration is also very slow. Currently, classes don't really seem to be going on at all!" Darius grew concerned. "I wonder what's going on?" ooc: really, what is going on? It hasn't been officially called summer yet, has it? hm...

((OOC: Dumbledore hasn't been on in a while and everything is backing up. ))
"I'm kinda weard I actually like potions. Does that make me a weardo." Ginny laughted she had just admited to someone she liked Snapes class. "I don't think you really missed much anyway. I'll be glad when finals are over if we even have finals."

"Well, he's a good teacher, I mean, the class is well thought-out and it definetly educates you, but Snape is just unpleasant. I do like the homework he assigns, it keeps me occupated." Darius stood up and cracked his back by pressing his knuckles on his spine. "I'm not too worried about finals, though. I get good enough marks." Darius shrugged his book bag onto his shoulder and made sure his prefect badge was in his pocket. "Well," he began, "What should we do? It's really nice out, and classes are postponed. We've basically got a day off! I suggest honeydukes."

"Great Idea. I was thinking I may take a swim later. "Ginny stood up and grabbed her stuff.
