Mine was taken from Jack Tamara's (post #935): Draco tickled her with a red leaf he'd found on the ground, and she swatted it away irritably, getting out a piece of parchment paper from her paper and muttering, "I must be losing my marbles because I'm about to teach a Malfoy how to play Muggle tic-tac-toe."

Ginny retreated to the grounds, escaping the Slytherin that had been following her incessantly: Draco Malfoy.

She figured he'd gone completely barmy; either that, or somebody Imperio'd him and this was their idea of a cruel joke.

The redhead relaxed as she lay down in the grass, but her serenity was short-lived as Malfoy seemed to appear out of nowhere at her side. "Ginny," he said in a sing-song voice.

She sat straight up and fixed the Slytherin with a glare. "What now?"

"I'm bored," he announced.

Ginny closed her eyes, resigning to the fate she had apparently been dealt.

"Okay, Malfoy, we're going to play a game," she stated.

Draco tickled her with a red leaf he'd found on the ground, and she swatted it away irritably, getting out a piece of parchment paper from her bag and muttering, "I must be losing my marbles because I'm about to teach a Malfoy how to play Muggle tic-tac-toe."

Ginny drew the standard criss-cross formation before placing an 'X' in the center. "Okay, Malfoy, now draw an 'O' in one of the other squares." Because Malfoy was new at the game, Ginny beat him mercilessly. "Last game!" she announced.

"Tell you what—if I win," he grinned, "I get to kiss you."

Ginny tried to hide her smirk. "You're on, Malfoy."

By some cruel fate, Ginny lost.

"Looks like I won," Draco smirked, his pale eyes glinting mischievously.

"You hustled me!"

"Guilty as charged."

She groaned. "Fine, let's get this over with."

Draco cupped her face in his hand and slowly brought his lips down to hers. Ginny tingled at the sensation and slowly began to kiss him back. When he stopped, she thought he pulled back all too soon.

Standing up, he threw her a wink. "See you around, Weasley."
