He Was The Only One Who Saw Her Cry So Silently

No one expected Ginny Weasley to be sad. She was the peppy, cute gryffindore (A/N: before you flame me--i added an e because i take french, and if you don't know that you add e's to the end of nouns for girls, then your a moron! now on with the story), who all the boys liked.

It was easy to see why they liked her. She had beautiful clear ivory skin ever since those pesky freckles had cleared away, and her hair hung in glorious ruby waves down her long back. Her legs were long and firm, because she ran to get her emotions out every morning around the lake, so she was really fit. Only her eyes, her deep emerald eyes ever gave her away—gave away the sorrow and pain that she hid deep within her heart of hearts.

But Harry had never noticed those eyes that were green like his own, because he was too busy with Cho, that whore.

Ginny stared out the window, and watched the rain. She had a private room at Hogwarts ever since Voldemort had killed her entire family, because Dumbledore felt bad for her. She remembered it like it was yesterday:

FLASHBACK

Ginny walked through the door of the burrow after her morning run.

"Hey!" she yelled. "I am home! Mum, what is it for breakfast? Mum?! MUM?!" Ginny yelled as she saw the pool of blood under the pile of bodies that the deatheaters had carelessly thrown on the kitchen table.

No! It couldn't be! She ran outside and sure enough, there was the dark mark hovering malignantly above the house.

She went back inside and saw her whole family there on the table. Charlie and Bill and Percy and Fred and George and Ron and Mum and Dad...all of them staring at her, with their mouths open in a silent plea for help as their lifeless bodies twitched, and their eyes were vacant. With a sickening crunch, one of the twins' heads detached (it had been nearly cut off already, sort of like Nearly-Headless Nick) and rolled toward her. As it rolled, she heard it say, "Gin-ny."

Then she collapsed.

It was there that Draco Malfoy had found her, and picked her up in his cloak and brought her back to Hogwarts. But she didn't remember that.

END FLASHBACK

She wept and lamented and the rainy weather mirrored her emotions perfectly, but she could not go for a run because it was so muddy.

"Where do you think you are going?" A voice asked from the door.

"Go away, Ferret Malfoy. I do not want you here and why are you in my room anyway? Dumbledore said it is private."

"You are stupid like your dead family Weasley, because I am sharing the bathroom with you, don't you know, it is connected to the Slytherin boy's room? So I can come in your room whenever I damn well want, you muggle-loving bitch."

He had not seen her face yet because she was still facing the window, but now she turned, and the bright sunlight caught her hair, and it shone like the sun itself, and he was almost blinded by her beauty which was scarred by the tears trickling ever-so-softly down her swan-like cheeks.

"Ginny..." he breathed, wanting nothing more than to run over there, take her in his arms and comfort her and hold her and rock her and make love to her, because Draco Malfoy did love Ginny Weasley, and that was his secret, that was what made him go to Dumbledore at the end of his fifth year and swear allegiance to the Order of the Phoenix, Dumbldedore who had become like a father to him because Lucius hit him and abused him (A/N: wow! that's such a run-on but i did it for like, effect, so don't flame! lol).

"WHAT? Why did you call me Ginny, Ferret Malfoy..." She paused. "...Draco." She said softly.

"You're crying." He said simply.

She reached a glistening hand up to her face as if to feel the soft tears that were there and said, "But no one ever notices that I cry. I have been crying for months now and no one sees. I cry all the time. In class, in the great hall, when I run, but you are the first to notice."

"Oh Ginny," he said, and had to grab the door to keep himself from running in and expressing his deep and tender love for her, for he had loved her since he had seen her in the bookshop before HP & COS, even though he didn't know it yet. No, because it had taken him till last year to realize his love for the girl weasel.

"I notice. I always notice. Have you ever felt a presence with you when you run, because it is me in my invisibility cloak, running with you, because I love you."

Ginny started crying harder, and the gale outside blew a belligerent branch against the window, startling both of them. "Oh Draco, I do not think that I can be capable of loving right now." He looked down crestfallenly, "But maybe you can teach me."

He looked up and then she was in his arms, kissing him with her cold, chapped lips, wet with her tears and his. But then she pushed him away!

"No, what I am doing? Ron and Harry will kill you. You need to go now!"

He left her reluctantly, hearing her silent sobs begin again as he closed the secret door to the boys bathroom behind him.
