Draco Malfoy slammed his unoffending quill down hard on the table he was writing on. He had been swamped with homework from McGonagall. *Evil toad* he thought bitterly. He grabbed his beloved drawing journal and got up and went out to the corridor on the outside of the Slytherin dungeon. He took in a long deep breath and looked around. Professor Snape was walking towards him looking bitter and greasy as usual.

"Draco" he said, he was the only teacher besides Dumbledore who ever called him by his first name, "What may I ask are you doing out here?"

"Oh professor I was just on my way to the library, you know to study up for my classes, I have a title to protect, Head Boy and what-not" he said.

"Oh yes, yes that's right okay go on."

As soon as Draco was out of Snape's hearing he smiled and let out a laugh. *gullible.* and he headed out the doors to the grounds.

It was only September so the grounds were crisp and cool. Trees were in full bloom with orange leaves. Draco walked to the lake and sat down on a bench. His favorite bench. It sat on the far eastern side of the lake and if you were there at the right time you could see the sun set just beyond the forest. He plopped himself down and pulled out his pencil and started to draw.

Drawing got out all the emotions that were running around inside his head. He could draw and get most of his anger out. It was really too bad that he hadn't discovered it before his 6th year. It would have helped a lot with his frustration with Harry Potter and his two best friends Ron Weasly and Hermione Granger.

He had just started the trees around Hagrid hut when he heard the small crinkle of someone stepping on a leaf.



*~*~



Ginny Weasly was feeling cramped and hot in the Gryffendor common room and she couldn't take Colin and his constant staring problem. She really liked the attention but it was getting to be too much. She was annoyed because the one boy she liked wasn't doing it, instead he was staring off into space with Cho, and then last year she left and well, he became sad and gloomy. Which was a real turnoff. *God why couldn't he just get over that annoying brat?* she thought angrily. *Okay Gin, your getting angry again and that's really bad for you. Just go out and take a walk* and that's exactly what she did. She waved goodbye sweetly to Colin and said a friendly goodbye to her brother, but he was WAY too busy snogging with Hermione on the couch to pay any attention. Ginny gaged and walked on out the portrait. As soon as she was out of the castle she was hit with a blast of cool air. She tugged her robes tighter to herself and kept walking. She loved to walk around the lake on fall days. It helped when she was younger and she'd get so worried about school, Harry, Ron and everything else in her life. She used to break out into terrible rashes and come down with horrible colds from it. As she neared the eastern most side of the lake she spotter someone sitting on a bench. Whoever it was had white blonde hair and was pulling a book of some kind out of his bag. She walked faster to see who it was. As she was walking behind his bench her foot fell onto an old dead leaf. The boys head whipped around. "Malfoy" she spat looking at him her face was mixed with anger and hurt to see that he was looking at her with a disgusted look smirk playing across his pale pink lips.



"Hello Weasly" he said this slow and exaggerated the hello so it sounded like a long low purr.

"Malfoy" Ginny was shaking with anger, she had inherited the Weasly temper.

"What do you want?"

"I was just taking a walk Malfoy, and I thought you were someone else that's all"

"Oh like say. . . Potter?" he laughed his low raspy laugh at his own joke.

Ginny felt herself become more angry and knew she had to get away from him or else she's do something stupid, like pounce him.

"Look your spoiled little brat, I need to go, maybe we can continue this at a better time, maybe when I'm not seeing a dragon biting you and then proceeding to flail you around by the head while you scream 'MY HAIR MY HAIR" and with that she turned on her heel and stormed into the opposite direction.

*My, my she has a temper* Draco though smiling to himself.
