For reviewing!

The past weekend was possibly the worst weekend of Charlie's entire life. Everything Snape had told him about the Malfoy's not caring their daughter was 'dating' him was a lie. The whole dinner revolved around Luscious making comments about his muggle loving family. At some point during the night Charlie had had enough of the put downs and was about to say something when Ellie – who also had enough of it – slammed her silverware down on the table, stood up and threw her napkin on the floor.

"That's enough," she said with anger in her voice. "I'm sick of this! You invited me and Charlie here to have a nice dinner so you could meet him and yet all you are doing is putting down him and his family!"

"If you can't accept him or my relationship with him, I want nothing to do with this family anymore!" Ellie knocked over her chair and grabbed the Weasley's arm. "Common Charlie, we're leaving, because obviously we aren't welcome here."

What Ellie had done surprised him to no end. She had openly disrespected her family all for him and their fake relationship, although he was happy to be away from the Malfoy's he couldn't help but feel horrible for what their only daughter had done. Which was why, right now he was standing outside her office door preparing to knock, and apologize for what had happened.

Right as the red haired man was raising his fist to the door, the door opened reveling the platinum blonde woman he was looking to speak to.

"Charlie?" voiced Ellie, raising an eyebrow at him. "What are you doing standing in front of my door?"

"I… uh, I'm… I came to… apologize to… you," he answered no really knowing what he was supposed to say.

"Why," she asked with a small laugh.

"For the other night, at dinner. You didn't need to do what you did, I would have lived."

Ellie sighed and motioned Charlie to step into her office. "Charlie I did that because I'm tired of the way my family treats the people around them. Look you're a better person than any of the people in my family, you shouldn't blame yourself for what happened."

"But–"

"No buts Charlie, I hadn't even talked to my family in almost 5 years until a few weeks ago, I don't think they expected much from me."

"Then why'd we go to dinner with them in the first place?" Charlie asked as he took a seat in a chair near her desk.

"Because, I want to believe one day my family will change and see they are doing the wrong thing, that maybe they can accept people for who they are and not for their blood line," replied Ellie sitting in the chair beside the red head. "Stupid dream huh?"

"I don't think it's stupid, maybe impossible, but not stupid," said Charlie, bringing a smile to Ellie's face.

"Yea… I guess you're right," she said laughing. "Merlin, I'm such an idiot."

Charlie got slipped off the chair and on to the floor, kneeling in front of Ellie taking her hands in his. "You're not an idiot."

To say Ellie was speechless was an understatement; she was completely unable to move.

"I think… you're beautiful." Charlie didn't even know why he said it, but in the moment he was completely captivated by Ellie's eyes. Unconsciously, he began leaning forward towards the woman's in front of him face eyes now focused on her lips. But before he was able to place a kiss on her lips they were interrupted.

"Ahem," came the annoying throat clearing of the woman who looked as though someone spilt a love potion all over her. Snapping back to reality Charlie jumped from his position on the floor and let go of Ellie's hands as he looked towards Dolores Umbridge.

"I heard scandalous rumors about the two of you involved in a relationship although I never thought it would be true," said the woman giving a painful look to both the Professor's. "I am especially disappointed in you Ms. Malfoy. Relationships with fellow colleges are unprofessional."

"What are you trying to say, Dolores?" growled Ellie getting sick of the woman already.

"What I mean to say, is there is a new rule within the walls of Hogwarts that relationships between teachers is unacceptable, and if you wish to continue your relationship with each other one of you must resign from your position. I'll give you until the end of the week for your decision." And with that the woman left the Defense against the Dark Arts office before either of them could say something.

AN: Guess who's beginning to get booored of this story? ME! But… as long as there are readers who would like to see the end of this story, then I will continue it. I guess I'm just bored of this because it's been awhile since I've read any Harry Potter fanfiction or the books!

I hope you guys still enjoy this story haha. Thank you for reading and please Review =)!
