Chapter 2
"She's not dead, and if you don't mind, I'd prefer not having to burn these robes." A cruel voice sneered above Ginny's head.
She snapped up and glared at him, wiping the tears from her eyes quickly.
"I'd have to agree with Mr. Malfoy, she is not dead," Said Dumbledore, much more politely than Malfoy.
"Then why was there a green light?" Ginny asked, ignoring Malfoy's overexaggerating of wiping his robes clean.
"It merely means that Miss. Granger has been poisoned, not deadly poison, but enough to knock her out."
Some gasps passed through the crowd.
"Hey Malfoy I guess you won't have to be bound to the mudblo-" Crabbe's voice was cut short by a coughing fit. Clunk. The students were sure they felt the floor shake. Crabbe was out cold, the same way Hermione was.
"Oh, dear well I better get these students to Poppy." Dumbledore said raising the students into the air and walking out of the Hall.
"I'll be back in a few moments, if the Slytherin and Gryffindor 5-7th years would please stay behind, thank you." Said Dumbledore, his voice trailing off as he got farther from the Hall. Amongst the excited chatter no one noticed the glance passed between Draco and Ginny.
Half an hour later the students Dumbledore requested were sitting at their tables chattering quietly. The doors to the Hall opened and Dumbledore swept in, his purple robes billowing behind him. When he made his way up to the staff table the students quieted and looked at him anxiously.
"We will find whoever did this to these poor students, but we are still going on with the original plan!" He said, ignoring the groans and shouts of protest.
Ginny smiled, 'I don't have to,' She though to herself.
"Do to the unfortunate incident involving Miss. Granger and Mr. Crabbe, Miss. Weasley will be partnered and bound to Mr. Malfoy."
Ginny's eyes grew. Malfoy smirked at her. Ron turned red and looked ready to kill him. Harry raised his hand and held him back. A pin drop could be heard.
"Everyone please line up with your partner and you will be bound."
"Well this will be interesting, won't it Weasel?" Malfoy smirked.
"Let me lay down the rules right now, you touch me, you die, you look at me, you die, you try anything else and I will send my bothers on you," Ginny answered smirking right back.
"Ohh, but you know you can't resist me," He whispered running a hand up her arm.
Her wand was at his neck and he backed off,
"Fine, fine, but I'm just stating a point."
"Riiiiight, lets not forget that you're the one hitting on me, not the other way around."
"Me hitting on a weasel? Now that's a god one,"
"Me attracted to a ferret? Now that is a good one."
There spat was cut short when they reached the front of the line. Dumbledore mumbled a charm that they could not hear, probably so they couldn't find the counter-curse, and they were attached at the arm. They both shivered slightly, but composed themselves. They left the line, to let the next people be bound.
"Let's go to the Hospital Wing," Malfoy said.
Ginny looked at him, "Why do you want to go to the Wing?" She asked raising an eyebrow.
"Crabbe is my…well…nevermind, I figured you would want to see Granger." He said.
She just looked at him, "Whatever."
On their way out they were stopped by a familiar red faced red haired Gryffindor, bound to Millicent Bulstrode.
"I swear you lay a finger on her Malfoy and I will shove my foot so far up your-"
"RON! I can handle myself you great prat, I will warn you now, you bother me or Malfoy at all, and you will seriously regret it." She said, brown eyes flashing. "Let's go," She finished half-dragging Malfoy out of the Hall.
Once they were far from the Hall Malfoy spoke for the first time,
"I'm impressed Weasel, I though I was the only who could press you like that."
"You usually are, it's just lately he's been really stupid, always telling me what to do. The only times they ever involve me in anything is when they need me. I am a pretty powerful witch, that's the only time they need me."
She stopped when she realized she was sharing to much, with a Malfoy no less. Malfoy was about to say something when the door to the Wing opened. They hadn't even realized they were there. Harry walked out, attached to Pansy. He offered the pair a small smile and they left. Draco and Ginny shared a glance, what was that about? They put it to the back of their minds and entered the Wing. They slowly made their way to Hermione's bed. There was a chair beside the bed, but only one. Ginny sat down but moved over to make room for Malfoy to sit down. He shook his head with a small smirk, and picked up her petite frame placing her on his lap. She moved to protest but he silenced her with his finger. She glared at him but took Hermione's hand in her own. It was cold, like ice. She let out a soft whimper,
"Hey Mione', I know you can't hear me, but I hope you get better soon, we all miss you a whole lot," She sounded like such a child, speaking so softly, as if Hermione would break if she talked to loudly. Draco rubbed her free hand softly, hoping to soothe her. For that moment they forgot they were enemies. Forgot that one was Malfoy and the other was Weasley. Forgot it all. She shifted in his lap and turn around. Chocolate met steel and they both froze, neither breaking eye contact. Neither of them heard the door to the Wing open.
"What the bloody hell is going on here?" Ron bellowed, while Millicent giggled behind him.
The pair snapped out of their revere, and glared at Ron.
"What did I say Ron?" Ginny asked calmly, although Draco could see her eyes flashing again.
"What am I supposed to just look over the fact that you are sitting in his lap!"
"It's my life! I told you not to bug either of us!"
"But you were just-"
"I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it. We were leaving anyways, come on Draco." She said pulling him up.
"What did you just call him?" Ron said.
"Why don't you tell me." She responded, glaring daggers at him and leaving the Wing.
"I can't stand him," Ginny said from the enormous chair in Draco's Head dorm. Since boys could not enter girls' dormitories, they were stuck in Draco's room.
"That makes the two of us," Draco mumbled.
"What did you say?" Ginny said turning to glare at him.
"Nothing," He realized that it would not be the best idea to press her buttons, when she was already mad about her brother.
She leaned back and shut her eyes, emitting a soft sigh.
"I may have an idea," Draco spoke slowly.
Ginny's eyes snapped open.
