Ginny covered her face with her hands. Her tears were falling quickly as she leaned back into the couch in the kitchens. "What's wrong with me?"

"You're a muggle lover?"

Ginny gasped, and turned around.

Draco Malfoy.

Ginny's eyes grew. "Malfoy. What are you doing here?"

Malfoy sat next to her. "I don't think that's any of your business."

Ginny stood up, and went to walk away.

"Wait Weasley."

Ginny turned around. Her hair was stuck to her wet face. She was... crying?

Malfoy stood up, and walked over to her. "Why are you crying?"

"I don't think that is any of your business."

Malfoy smiled. "Now tell me, why the question of your wrong doings?"

Her eyes flew open. "That is none of your business!"

Malfoy raised an eyebrow. "Just tell me."

Ginny fell back onto the couch, tears spilling over her cheeks.

Malfoy was taken aback. "I'm... Good god. Damn, I'm not good with crying girls." Malfoy got to his knees in front of her. "Please don't cry."

Ginny looked up at him.

He looked more nervous than she was.

Without really thinking about it, she threw her arms around his shoulders.

'Oh crap...' he thought, slipping his arms around her waist. He pressed his lips to her neck, but Ginny didn't notice. Her tears were now soaking his shirt. He stood up, and took her with him.

"Please tell me why you're crying."

She looked up into his grey eyes. "He hates me. He hit me."

Malfoy looked at her, and his heart seemed to drop. She looked so vulnerable…

"Who hit you?" he asked.

"No. I shouldn't have told you that. I shouldn't-" He

took her face with both hands. "Tell me." She sniffed. "Lee." (A/N I almost put in Fred!)

"Jordan?" he asked.

She nodded, and put her head back on his shoulder.

"Let's get some hot cocoa."

She nodded, allowing Draco's hand to take hers, and lead her inside.

Dobby walked over to them.

"Hello mister Malfoy. What can Dobby do for you today?"

Malfoy looked down at Ginny. "Two glasses of hot cocoa."

"Please," Ginny said.

"Yes," Malfoy said. "Please."

They both sat on a small couch that was in front of the fireplace in the kitchens. Ginny cuddled close to Malfoy.

Malfoy's heart began to melt, looking down at the small, defenseless red-head. Dobby came over with the two glasses of hot cocoa. "Here you go. Dobby brought your drink."

Under her sniffles, Ginny whispered a kind, "Thank you."

Dobby bowed.

"Do you feel better?" Malfoy asked.

Ginny nodded. "You know, you're a lot nicer than one would suspect by the way you act when my brothers are around. Why is that?"

Malfoy shrugged.

"But, you're so nice, and you act so mean when everyone else is around. I mean, I know you can be-"

Malfoy put his fingers over her lips. "Shh. No more words." Malfoy layed her head on his shoulder. "I'm glad you feel better now."

Ginny nodded. "I'd better go upstairs. My brothers will be getting worried." Ginny stood up. "Let's go."

When they got to the threshold, which led the kitchens from the dining room, Malfoy stopped her. "Wait, Ginny."

Malfoy brushed a random curl from her face.

"I dont think-"

Malfoy stopped her words by pressing his lips on hers. For a few seconds, she was paralyzed.

When she got over the shock, she slid her arms around his neck.

His lips left hers, and trailed down her neck.

Ginny was shivering. "Malfoy, stop." Ginny slipped a hand through Malfoy's hair. "Ron really wouldn't like this. Please stop."

Malfoy looked up at her. "Who cares about Ron?" he asked, looking up at her.

Ginny smirked one to make him very proud. "Very true." She took her arms away from his neck. "I need to get... to get to bed."

He was sending shivers down her spine that even freezing weather couldn't.

Ginny pulled away from Malfoy, and ran up the stairs to the Gryffindor common room.

When Ginny got to the common room, her face was flushed. Harry and Ron were playing Wizards Chess. Paravati looked at Ginny.

"Someone looks as though they've been with a boy." Her ears turned bright red.

Everyone who cared, (which was probably just her brothers and Harry,) turned to stare at Ron's shout.

"A boy?" He stood up, and stood behind Paravati. "What boy?"

Paravati smiled. "Was it Lee?"

Ginny's cheeks turned red with anger. "No. I don't even want to hear that name."

On the other side of the room, Lee was given two smacks. One from each of the twins. Ginny walked up to her room. She could almost feel Draco thinking about her.

Draco sat on his bed. He was smiling. Not his normal sneer, but a beautiful smile.

Pansy walked in. "Well hello Drake."

Malfoy's distinctive scoff re-appeared. Why did she have to come into the room whenever he was happy?

"I missed you."

Malfoy's sneer returned. He looked around the room to hide behind, or under for that matter. Pansy sat on the edge of Draco's bed.

"Well, I didnt see you all day. Where were you baby?"

Malfoy stood up. "You know Pansy, I have to go to bed."

Pansy lay on his bed. "Maybe I could join you?"

His eyes grew. "Um, no. I think I should be alone. I've been a bit... sick during the night."

Pansy stood up. "Ok then. I'll go to my own room. Bye baby!" she said before leaving the room.

'Slut…'


A/N Ok, I haven't edited this in a long time, and I'm glad I have decided to now! Well, I'll go and edit chapter two now, and then I'll start writing chapter three.
