Story notes:
Incognito's prompt:

Basic outline: Ever have a bad day that wouldn't end? No, it literally keeps repeating over and over until you want to kill yourself, but you can't because the day will just start over again! Draco Malfoy is caught in this never-ending loop until Ginny Weasley unknowingly helps him end its vicious cycle.

Must haves: 1) Resolution: the cycle must be broken; 2) Animosity: Draco and Ginny must share some animosity in the beginning, and it is Draco who, after time, falls in love with Ginny and tries to convince her to like him; 3) Comedy: there must be some (if not many) facepalming moments for Draco.

No-no's: No OOC-ness.

Rating range: Any

Bonus points: Draco runs into Ron every day. Each outcome is different (usually Draco avoids him), but on the first day, Ron punches Draco. I want one incident where Draco lets loose and knocks Ron unconscious (down for the count).

Ahhh. Short chapter. >_< I hope to get back into the swing of things and update more regularly. I mean, the story is complete, so I don't know what I'm doing waiting around....

I'm expanding the time line to make more room for drabbles, if I choose to write some outtakes after the story is finished. So if anyone read this during the exchange, I have changed the number of days the loop is lasting.
