" What do you think?" a slender figured girl twirled slowly as her friend cast an approving eye over her outfit from her silky silver halter neck top that shimmered as it clung to her figure to her crushed velvet emerald skirt. Finished with black over the knee flat soled boots she looked effortlessly beautiful.
" I think you might just do" the second girl laughed running her fingers through her long chocolate hair and pulling it into a loose knot. " Now what am I going to do with this fiery mess?" she teased turning her attention to her friends flowing red curls.
" You cheeky so and so, you're just jealous lexii."
" You know what, you might be right, who wouldn't want to be like you"
" Come on lets go " blushed the first girl, walking out of the front door.
" You need to accept compliments Ginny Weasley" called Lexii following her best friend into the warm august night.
As the two girls approached the doors they were met by loud complaints from the queue of people standing behind the ropes. Lexii flashed a smile at one of the bouncers while Ginny discreetly flicked her wand in his direction.
" Oh yes here you are, Weasley and Dolan, Come on in ladies " he smiled bowing his head slightly as he opened the doors for them to step inside.
" How did you find this place lex? " Ginny asked in awe surveying her surroundings
" It comes in handy living with muggles at times m'lady" Lexii laughed grabbing her friends hand and leading her deep into the crowds.
Standing behind the curtains he took a deep steadying breath and readied himself for the crowds he was about to face. Slipping his guitar over his shoulders he walked and stood in the middle of the podium and began to play.
I'll sing it one last time for you Then we really have to go You've been the only thing that's right In all I've done. And I can barely look at you But every single time I do I know we'll make it anywhere Away from here.
" Wow he's hot " Lexii gasped " And he's not a bad singer to boot "
Light up, light up As if you have a choice. Even if you can not hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear. Louder, Louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can't raise your voice to say.
Ginny stared wide eyed at the young man standing before them, her mouth open in disbelief.
To think I might not see those eyes Makes it so hard not to cry And as we say our long goodbyes. I nearly do Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you can not hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear Louder, Louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can't raise your voice to say...
" What's wrong Gin? " Lexii asked confused at the look on her friends face.
Slower, slower We don't have time for that All I want's to find an easier way To get out of our little heads Have heart, my dear We're bound to be afraid Even if its just for a few days Making up for all this mess Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you can not hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear.
" I think I need a drink" Ginny said turning her back on the podium and walking towards the bar. Looking over her shoulder she caught a last glimpse of the singer's tall muscular frame and platinum hair. No doubt about it.. That was Draco Malfoy. Singing in a muggle club. A smile tugged at the corner of her lips. " Life's full of surprises" she said to herself as Lexii caught up to her.
" What's that?"
" Oh nothing, can you get me a drink while I find the loos?" Ginny asked handing her friend some money and walking back the way she had came. Sweeping past the bouncer with another flick of her wand she stepped behind the curtains on the podium.
