~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Was Draco purposely trying to avoid her now? She hadn't seen him all day. The answer, she didn't know, because she was purposely trying to avoid him. The Slytherin boy would probably hex her repeatedly if he saw her now. Well, at least that was one of her theories. The other one was that Draco might actually like her... but she didn't want to get her hopes up. After all, Draco did tell her he didn't want a hand me down like her.
"Ginny? What's wrong?" Harry asked, uncomfortably, coming over to the chair she was sitting in. Ever since the day Colin broke up with her, he had been uneasy around her and didn't know how to really talk to her anymore. He still wanted to be just friends, though, so he made an attempt to help the depressed looking girl.
Startled, Ginny turned. Something made her think she was the only one in the common room, but obviously, looking at Harry, that something was wrong. "Nothing's wrong." She replied slowly, as if thinking about what to tell him.
He cocked an eyebrow. "Ginny," He started, "I want to be friends. But if you don't tell me stuff..." He trailed off, hoping for her to get the hint. She heaved a sigh of frustration and Harry took that as a sign she was about to spill her thoughts.
"It's just a little boy trouble that will probably clear itself up." She snapped, turning to face the fire.
He nodded slowly. "Everyone's having romance problems." He chuckled. She turned her head to him, letting him know she was listening. "Hermione. Ron." Ginny laughed. It was apparent that the two liked each other, but to the two themselves. "Then me." He blushed.
"Cho?" Ginny asked knowingly. He nodded.
"And then even that stupid git, Malfoy." He added. Her eyes got wide at hearing Draco's name, or at least his last name. She was upset at Harry for calling him a stupid git, but didn't show it. "He was actually being civil to the Gryffindors yesterday and didn't call Hermione a mudblood." He informed. "Said he had enough troubles with the girl that he liked and didn't want to deal with us."
Ginny's heart skipped a beat, maybe two, at hearing this. Could it possibly be that she was the one that he was referring too? "Really?" Was all that she could say to Harry, who was waiting for her to reply.
Harry then looked at her in such a weird way, that Ginny couldn't even give the expression on his face a name. "If I didn't know any better," He started. "I'd say he was talking about a Gryffindor."
Shortly after the meeting with Harry, she decided to stop avoiding him and went outside to the lake, hoping that he would be there. She wrapped her cloak around her as the cold wind chilled her and looked around. No one was there, with the exception of her. Walking over to the nearest tree, she planted herself at the base and looked out at the crystal blue waters.
Meanwhile, Draco stood near the quidditch pitch, holding his broom, looking over at the small figure sitting beside the lake. What should he do? Go over to her and disgrace the family name or go into the quidditch pitch and try to forget all about her and continue life as always. But then every time he would see her in the hall...
Instead of walking to her, or into the quidditch pitch, he headed back to the castle.
Despite the cool air, Ginny feel asleep like she usually did at the lake to wake up at the dark sky above. "I knew I'd find you snoozing down here, Weasley." A familiar voice behind her said. She turned around to see him and smiled.
"Did you now?" She asked, trying to flatten down her, she was assuming, messed up hair from her nap. He rolled his eyes, yet she could notice a small smile on his features.
"I-I got something for you." He said, pulling something out of his robe pocket.
'Draco? Stuttering?' She thought wildly. "Thank you. I wouldn't expect you to give me something."
He looked at her and held out his hand. "I'm trying." He said, gritting his teeth. "I know what I feel. And truthfully, it scares me." He admitted, seriously. "I never thought that I would feel anything for a Gryffindor, but of course, you probably knew that." He smirked.
She took whatever was in his hand and lit her wand to see it better. It was a plain silver necklace with a heart on it. "Where did you get it?" She asked him. "I love it." She added afterwards.
Draco stood against a tree and crossed his arms. "My mom bought it and sent it to me to give to a 'special girl'." He explained. "It's not a hand me down, Weasley, if that's what your thinking." Then he sighed. "You know, my dad's going to have a fit, don't you. Me and you."
"There's a me and you?" She asked, finalizing it.
"Yes." He rolled his eyes and she smiled.
"I thought you didn't like hand me downs." She teased and, yet again he rolled his eyes. "You do that alot." She pointed out and, to prove her point he did it again, then laughed, as he noticed, too.
A quiet few minutes later, Draco broke the silence. "We should be heading back." He stuffed his hands in his robe pockets as Ginny nodded her head in agreement. "But first," He leaned down, taking Ginny off gaurd and brushed his lips softly against hers. Then they walked hand in hand back to the castle.
