Together

(c) 1999  Breea

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters, they all belong to J K Rowling. Plot line is mine, though, thank you very much.

A/N: I originally wrote this as an N Sync fan fic a while back. Since I'm no longer a huge N Sync fan, I wondered what would happen to my story if I used Harry Potter characters, since I'm much more interested in them at this time.

This story is about normal people, the characters are just ones we are familiar with. They most likely will not act in character as they would in the book series, since I didn't originally write with them in mind.

Chapter One

            "Did you see the new guy?" Hermione asked her best friend, Ginny. "He's a cutie. Definitely one to get your mind off of Dean."

            Ginny frowned at Hermione. "Maybe I don't want to get my mind off Dean. Maybe I like wallowing in self pity and I know I love to feel sorry for myself."
            Hermione shook her head. "But this new guy will change all of that. Just think of it as a new conquest. His name's Draco. Draco Malfoy."
            "Draco Malfoy," Ginny let his name roll off her tongue. "I like that name. Hmm, maybe you're right."
            "Well good, 'cause here's your chance now. Walking this way in the light kacki cargo pants and the baby blue polo shirt, we have the gorgeous blond haired, gray eyed Draco Malfoy." Hermione said, nodding down the hallway toward two guys walking in the girls' direction.
            "God, he is beautiful, isn't he?" Ginny whispered. "Well, here goes nothing." Ginny walked up to him and introduced herself with all the self-confidence in the world. "Hi, my name's Ginny. You're Draco, right?" He nodded, a cute, crooked half smile on his face. "Right, well, I know Justin here is doing a wonderful job of showing you around, but I was wondering if you'd like to take my tour of the school?" She opened her eyes wide and smiled.
            Draco looked from Justin to Ginny and back at Justin. "Hey buddy, thanks for the tour, but, well..."
            Justin slapped Draco on the back. "No problem. I don't blame you at all. Watch out for her though, she's nothing but trouble." Justin smiled at Ginny.
            Ginny smiled sweetly back then stuck her tongue out at him. "Don't listen to him." Ginny told Draco, steering him toward the gym. "He's just mad because I wouldn't go to Junior Prom with him."
            "Oh, and why wouldn't you?" Draco asked, eyebrow raised.
            Ginny smiled up at him. "I had a boyfriend. At the time. But that's old news. Come on, I'll show you the excitement of the gym."
            And that was how it all started. Ginny and Draco soon after began dating and quickly became their high school's number one couple. The night it all began to fall apart was prom night.

            Draco and Ginny showed up to prom fashionably late. There was no question they'd be King and Queen and everyone planned on celebrating at Draco's house after the dance was over. His parents were out of town.
            All went according to plan, Draco and Ginny were crowned at exactly midnight and one hour later, Draco's house was jammed with drunken teenagers. Ginny stayed with Hermione and her boyfriend, Ron, most of the night. Draco was off playing the good host - seeing who could drink more beer out of the keg in his kitchen. She was having fun, drinking and dancing with her best friend. But soon, Ginny felt herself becoming a third wheel to Hermione and Ron's couple. She politely excused herself and went to find Draco.
            She found him close to where she left him, laughing in the kitchen with his buddies. She grabbed his hand and led him out of the room.
            "What is it, baby?" he asked, wrapping his arms around her waist and leaning over her. He was a little tipsy but not completely drunk.
            "I want to talk. Somewhere quieter." She whispered in his ear. He looked down at her and caught her smile. He smiled back and obediently followed her upstairs to his bedroom. She shut the door behind them and leaned back against it. Draco sat on his bed.
            "What is it you wanted to talk about?" he asked, setting his up beer on the nightstand. Ginny quickly locked the door and walked over to stand in front of him. She gently pushed him backward and he easily lied down on the bed. She flopped to her knees on the bed, straddling him.
            "Draco Malfoy," she said slowly, leaning over the top of him. Their faces were inches apart. "I love you."
            He blinked at her in surprise. It was the first time she said it to him. They promised each other they wouldn't use those words unless they really ment them. It was the first time either one of them had said it to the other.
            "Are you serious?" He whispered, his eyes searching hers. He found his answer in their depths before she spoke the word.
            "Yes," she breathed.
            "I-"
            "You don't have to say it because I did." She told him. He brought his index finger to her lips to silence her. He sat up, forcing her to sit up in his lap.
            "I'm saying it because I want to say it. And it's true. I love you, too." Their faces were inches apart. Ginny smiled at his words. He leaned in and kissed her gently, then more urgently. He reversed their positions and she was suddenly on her back on the bed. The kisses spread across the length of their bodies as clothes came off. That night, they both experienced passion as they never had before, ending in the safest place either knew. In each other's arms.

Please review, I'd like to know if I should continue with this or not…thanks!
