Prologue

sometimes we reach out to someone when we are too lonely.

"I've had enough" he spat, looking at the red-headed girl in front of him. "This has gone too far."

Ginny looked up at him, her eyes wide. "I'm sorry" she whispered, but the pale boy just raised his hand, silencing her.

"I don't even know what I was thinking, getting involved with you." He said as his icy eyes met hers. "I knew you were a wreck, and yet I took a chance." He said, before handing her back her dress. "Put some clothes on, Weasley. Have some dignity."

"Fuck you, Malfoy. I seem to recall you liking me better without my clothes on" oh, how did she become this? Sleeping with Draco Malfoy just to feel something. Her world had been empty since Voldemort killed Harry Potter. She been lucky to escape the wrath of the death eaters after the battle. They locked all of Harry's supporters, and torturing or killing them. She ran. After she saw the lifeless body of the man she loved, she took off. She didn't get far until she crashed into a certain Slytherin with icy blue eyes.

Ginny was thankful that Draco didn't turn her in, he threatened too, but after seeing her he changed his mind. He took her to an abandoned warehouse, and helped keep her under the radar. They hardly spoke, she had nothing to say to him. When they did though, Draco made the pain ease. It was only a matter of weeks until she was in his arms though.

Of course sex complicated things. She wanted nothing more then physical relations, but Draco swore he felt for her. She couldn't tolerate the talks they had, or the fights it led too. She didn't want him, and she'd never be able to love him.

"You're more like the girl I remember when your rolling around in my bed." Draco said, before offering his hand to her. She only pushed it away before throwing her dress on.

"The girl I was no longer exists. She was gone as soon as your Dark Lord killed her boyfriend." Ginny spat. "I don't love you, Draco. This is only sex for me. Nothing more."

"She can exist again, Ginny" he said, grabbing her in his arms, trying to hold her. "Let me fix you."

"You can't" she whispered. "And this... Our having sex isn't helping at all." She said before opening the door, putting her scarf over her head. "I'm going back to the warehouse, I'll get my things. It's not fair to ask you to keep me hidden anymore. If you want to tell them you found me, go ahead." She said, before looking outside then back at him.

"I would never." He said, before grabbing her hand. "I'll still bring you food, Gin" he said, watching her shake her head.

"Nah. I'm not staying there." She said. "It's not fair to you. I've hurt you so much already. I'll just take my chances. So, this is goodbye"

"Don't say goodbye, Gin." Draco said softly, before pulling her in a tight hug. "I don't want this to be goodbye, and I know you don't want it to be either. So, explore, do what you need too. Just come back to me."

"I can't promise I'll ever be able to love you" she whispered

"It's a chance I'm willing to take" he said before kissing her roughly.

"It's not fair to you."

"Let me worry about that, Gin. Just be safe while you heal. Then return to me" he said. She nodded before heading towards the door.

"Till next time we meet, Malfoy"

"I'm counting down the days, Weasley" he said, and watch the door close behind her. He wasn't sure if they could make it work, but he knew if she did return she'd atleast have some hope.

That was a start.

AN: Hey. It's Draco/Ginny (a couple I don't really support) It just came to me one day. This was gonna be it, but my friends convinced me to make it longer. So, I'll update soon! Please tell me what you think, I would love to know.
