Ginny smiled as she passed the 4th year slytherin, her hand in that of her boyfriend Harry Potter's, as they passed down the corridor. She saw something spark in his eyes as his lip turned up into a lopsided grin, before flicking her hair over her shoulder and continuing on, turning her full attention on the boy of her dreams as he nuzzled her neck.

Blaise watched on in interest as the pretty young girl walked off, potter nuzzling into her neck, the pair sharing a quick yet, what seemed intimate kiss.

"earth to Zabini, come in" Said another boy waving his hand in front of his face.

"knock it off draco" Blaise laughed batting his best mate away playfully. "but tell me something. Whose potter's new squeeze?" He said gesturing down the hall. Draco looking up and smirking.

"Geez Blaise, I wouldn't of thought that that was such a hard one. Red hair… potter fan…" draco started.

"A Weasley?" Blaise asked, taking Draco's look of 'duh' as a yes he shrugged his shoulders. "Who would have figured?" He added dismissively.

"Only 99 of the school population, which obviously didn't include you" Draco laughed.

"Shut up" Blaise shot back good naturedly. Truth be told. He had never really taken notice of the Weasley girl. Well, obviously he knew of her existence, but he had paid that little attention to it that he had never really taken a good look at her. She was quite pretty, gorgeous in fact. But alas, she was a Weasley none the less. Too bad.

5 months later…

Blaise and the others were walking back from quidditch practice talking animatedly when they rounded the corner and something solid connected with his chest, sending it to the floor. On further inspection Blaise noticed it was the little Weasley.

"Im so sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going, I've been in such a hurry" she managed as she was on all fours collecting her things "Im really…sorry" she finished as she looked up into beautiful purple eyes, that were basically laughing at her good naturedly.

"Why don't you watch where your going next time Weasley" Draco said like she was a two year old before walking off. The rest of the team following in his wake. Save for one.

"God I hate that guy" Ginny mumbled as she resumed collecting her things.

"Yeah he can be a real jackass at times, but really he's just misunderstood. We all are…here" Blaise added as he passed her a book and helped her up.

"Er..um thanks…" Ginny said not knowing how to continue.

"Blaise. Blaise Zabini" He said introducing himself. Ginny just laughed.

"I know who you are Zabini, I'm not that ignorant." She said in a mocking tone.

"Don't mock me, I was only being nice" He said his defenses automatically coming up.

"I wasn't mocking you. I was merely stating a fact. You have a pretty big ego thinking everything revolves around you don't you?" she said her eyes dancing. Blaise was fuming. Making him glare at her. "now I'm mocking you" she said with a grin before walking off. "oh and thanks for your help." She said as she turned and flashed him a smile like she had months earlier. Making him seethe all the more.

"Bloody Weasley, thinks she knows me. She doesn't."

1 year 2 months later.

Blaise climbed upon the train to return to Hogwarts after spring break, finding himself a compartment to himself. He wanted nothing more than solitude at this point in time after enduring endless social gatherings and earning countless lashings from his father. Blaise flinched at the reminder of his still scabbing back pressed against the chair. He reached for his bag and pulled out his invisibility cloak when he heard his friends calling for him. He really just needed to be alone. Draco opened the compartment door. Took one look into the empty room and smirked knowingly.

"Like that is it? See you at school" he said and without waiting for a reply, turned and closed the door behind him. This was opened moments later by none other than the little Weasley, as she stumbled in potters arms around her waist as he nuzzled her neck.

"Close the door and pull the blind" he said without a please or thankyou but she did so anyway, as soon as she turned he seized her face in his hands as he kissed her with passion, making her give out an involuntary moan. Blaise was stunned. Potter soon had her on the opposite seat laying beneath him as they continued to kiss with a furious passion that Blaise had never seen let alone experienced. Their lips breaking for a second allowing a breath and with it, an 'I love you' to escape potters lips. Blaise watched as she smiled while Harry kissed down her neck. 'I love you too' she replied as he did so. Ginny starting to pull up his shirt.

"Gin don't" Harry said making her grin and continue. "Gin, I mean it now Stop!" he said making her halt her ministrations and give him a confused look. One that was mirrored by Blaise. 'what the hell possible reason could he have from stopping a chick from ravishing his body. Especially that chick?'

"What? I don't understand" she started confused.

"Gin we've discussed this before, not in public" he said sternly

"what so its ok for you to make out with me anywhere you please but I want to take your shirt off, in a PRIVATE compartment and its no?"

"Gin stop being so stupid" He said making her turn her head looking straight towards Blaise her eyes blazing with fury, he too couldn't believe how Harry spoke to her. "making out and shit is fine, but anything else is just plain indecent if its not in the proper place. You cant go round doing stuff like that, its just plain cheap, and its this slight bit of decorum that separates us from gutter trash like Pansy Parkinson, am I right?" he asked turning her head. Making her look in his eyes and nod. Blaise couldn't believe how under the thumb this girl was.

"Good girl. Okay well I'm gonna go find Ron and Mione, you wanna come or get some rest" he asked but as soon as Ginny opened her mouth he cut her off. "you might actually want to get some rest, you look like you need it." He said before turning and leaving Ginny's mouth open at his statement as the door closed she quickly put a silencing charm on it.

"Well maybe id look better if I got more fucking sleep, but between you always hassling me wanting a root and being a gutter snipe I don't get much time, you stupid arrogant fuck!" she said before making a sound of indignation sitting on the seat again and bursting into tears, falling down and curing in a ball on the seat.

Blaise sat there with his mouth agape at her outburst, and now tears. This chick was bonkers. Bonkers for the way she just acted, bonkers for the way she let potter treat her and bonkers for letting herself cry over him. This chick was just plain bonkers. But she was beautiful.

From then on Blaise noticed Ginny Weasley. Noticed her like no one else did. He saw her changing, distancing, darkening. He saw her falling from grace.
