You have no idea how hard it is to live out a great romance. ~ Wallis Simpson, the Duchess of WindsorCategory: Works in Progress
When an engaged Ginny Weasley was traded to the Wimbourne Wasps, she never expected to fall in love with teammate Draco Malfoy. She certainly never expected their love letters to be stolen and published to the entire Wizarding public. This is a story of how a love affair began and the scandal that rocked Wizarding society.

Wow! I like where this story is going and I hope you get to update soon!
When a case of workplace sexual harassment leaves Ginny in a truly desperate state, the natural thing to do is to convince Draco Malfoy to pretend to be her boyfriend. Naturally.Category: Works in ProgressWritten for SunnyStorms in The DG Forum's 2015 Winter Fic Exchange.
This update has taken me out of my fic-reading slump! Well damn, how will Ginny get out of that trip with Junker? I'm starting to hate him as much as I hate Umbridge.
Author's Response: Yay! I've been in a fic-reading slump for years (LOL), so I'm glad you've snapped out of yours! It's not fun. :( Ooooh, Junker has reached Umbridge-level of evil and hatred?? That's an amazing compliment. We'll just have to see what happens as far as the conference goes. ;) Thanks for reading and reviewing!
I like the idea of the Snitch tat! Will Draco be able to practice his seeking skills on it in the next chapter?
Author's Response: I don't want to get anyone's hopes up, so I'll go ahead and say no. But will he get the opportunity for some Ginny Weasley Quidditch practice in the future?? I can most assuredly say yes to that. :))) Thank you for reading! :D
How could you do this?!!! You make us take a peek at Draco in swimwear at just the end of the chapter, it's killing me!
Author's Response: Hehehehehe. >:D Just wait until the next one. :)))))))))
"his freakish fantasy featured the voice of Lee Jordan announcing, “She’s caught the Snitch, folks! 150 points to Gryffindor!” -this was way too hilarious!
I think Draco having war flashbacks at the sight of ghosts and toilets is a subtle but great way of reminding us of the things he went through during the Second Wizarding War and that not only one side but both sides had their share of loss and pain. Great job on this chapter!
Author's Response: Thank you! I do have my funny moments. n_n And that is exactly why that line about ghosts and war flashbacks is my favorite in this whole chapter. :D Plus, as depressing as it is, it makes me cackle (maybe in an evil author way more than in a 'that's hilarious' way). I'm so glad you enjoyed the chapter!
Now I can't wait for chapter 6! I hope Narcissa warms up to Ginny eventually though.
Author's Response: We'll just have to see! ;) Thanks for reading and reviewing!
Great chapter! I liked that Harry's dating Astoria here! Will Ginny get to meet her in the next chapters? :)
Author's Response: Maaaaybe! I love the idea of Harry and Astoria dating, especially in light of the new information JKR released about Draco a few months ago. She seems like she'd be a pretty good fit for Harry. :D Thanks for reading and reviewing!
I just had a lovely commute to work this morning because of this story! Looking forward for the next chapters to come! :)
Author's Response: Oh yay! I'm glad you're enjoying it so far! More soon. n_n
I like Pansy here a lot! I hope I get to see her more on the next chapters to come. Btw, your updates are always a treat!
Author's Response: Pansy is fun, but I also love her surprising soft spot for her husband. I got some major Pansy/Theodore feels while writing this chapter. n_n I'm glad you enjoyed the update!
Just thank you for updating and for not using No Maj. I am with you on that one!
Author's Response: Right?? I mean, no-maj has grown on me, but it really does sound like slang from the 1920s. I don't think it would have survived to the year 2000, so I've ignored it in this fic. u_u You're welcome and thank YOU so much for reading!!
Ginny is not pining, okay? She's just … respectfully admiring from a distance. It might only be the two-meter distance between their flats, but still.
