"Okay team, are you ready?"
"What should we be ready for? It's just the Irish arriving. Chill, Jack." Ginny said with her teammates, hidden in the shadows of a sweets shop as the crowd gathered around the entrance waiting for the Irish. Them, being a shy team, had arrived at Diagon Alley as a team through a secret passageway through the sweets shop.
"Ginny!" Angelina cried, running up to her from the newsstand. "You're in the newspaper!"
"Give me that."
Ginny Weasley makes appearance at Diagon Alley with friends, Harry potter
Ginevra Weasley, AKA fire on a broom, was recently sighted at Diagon Alley with a few friends, including the boy who lived, Harry Potter. The prominent and rather media famed couple were known to have dated half a dozen years ago. This appearance brought out many stirring questions about their relationship.
As fans crowded about, Ginny Weasley, flashing one of her famed, brilliant smiles, signed notepads and any piece of paper and cheerfully answered blazing questions being flown out at her-
"Angelina, how could you read this kind of shi-"
"OH MY GOD! OH MY LORD! OH MY LORD, THEY'RE HERE! OH MY LORD! OH MY! OH MY GOD! SOMEONE! I CAN'T BREATH!" One scream erupted from one end of the fans. Soon, the entire mob began screaming and fainting.
The rest of Ginny's team scoffed. "Come on guys. We have better things to do than watch losers being praised." Angelina said, the team trooping behind her. Ginny walked slowly behind them when she heard another scream, "DRACO! DRACO MALFOY! DO ME! I LOVE YOU! I CAN'T BREATH!"
Draco Malfoy?
The Draco Malfoy? The Draco Malfoy that couldn't play Quidditch for his life?
Ginny turned around and there indeed was the shocking blond strutting down with his old cronies, smirking arrogantly. She stared at him, newspaper close in hand and her eyes beginning to dim.
"Ginny?" Jack asked behind her.
She ignored him and with slit-like eyes that would have made Voldemort proud, she slid closer to see her next victim close up.
Martin was not kidding. When they arrived, the entire Diagon Alley had been mobbed by screaming fans and curious villagers.
And they did what Martin told; they didn't stop to smile or to sign their signatures on notepads unless the chick was really hot.
Draco held his broom and bags in one hand and his papers in his other as he sauntered down the alley with his fellow teammates.
From the corner of his eye, he saw a flushed redhead holding onto the newspaper, eyeing them with a sense that Draco could not quite put a finger on. Was it admiration? Was it excitement? Was it hatred?
Draco paused and looked at the girl. "Do you want me to sign that?" He asked, pointing at her newspaper.
For a slight moment, she looked perplexed, then loosened up and smirked. "No, the question is, do you want ME to sign THAT?" She said, pointing at his papers.
Draco frowned. "Who are you?"
"Depends what you want to call me. My friends call me Gin, but most of the public calls me 'fire on a broom.'" She replied, walking away with a bit of a bounce by every step.
"What was that, Ginny?" Jack asked as Ginny came bounding up to him.
"What was what?"
"That whole thing, over there with the Irish team?"
"Oh that?"
Jack looked down at her worriedly. "Yes, that. What was it? You and their seeker."
"Draco Malfoy plays seeker?"
"Answer me first."
"He was just being a jerkass. Let's not waste our time, captain, the conference is in an hour." Ginny said, pulling Jack along. Jack was always like yet another brother to her, but he tended to be a bit nosy with things, asking Ginny about dates or how good the sex was.
"I had a friend once who played for Ireland." Jack said, as they walked side by side to their rooms.
"And I'm guessing you two are no longer friends."
"Martin. I think he's the Irish captain now. Martin. He always told me what his captain said, 'Don't stop to talk to the fans unless the chick is hot.'"
"I'm flattered. I know Martin plays chaser, am I correct?"
Jack nodded. "Martin's severe. He kicked his captain off his own team to be in the current position he's in right now. And trust me, Ginny, seeing obviously that the team seems to have the hots for you, don't get weak. Martin can take you down. I doubt he has a heart. In his head, the only thing is him with that cup. He'd do anything to get it. So don't think you can get away with the seeker thinking you're worthy enough to give an autograph to. Be careful."
"Great way to boost a woman's ego. My childhood enemy and biggest git just made a fool of himself in front of me and you go on telling me it means nothing? Thanks, Jack."
"It does mean something. It just means that they think you're hot and for them, a beautiful woman means an airheaded one. They'll take advantage of you."
"Just what I wanted." She replied sarcastically.
"No, really, Ginny. It IS just what you wanted. Remember when I was interviewing you? And you told me that people constantly made fun of you just because of your sex and height, or lack thereof. And you wanted to show them who's the boss? This is your chance. This is your chance to slap them in the face and stick a wand up their ass."
"Well at this rate, we probably won't even get to the game on time. Come on, big boy. You're a jock. Pick up the pace a little." Ginny said, running ahead of him.
"Welcome to the annual Quidditch World Cup press conference! This year, our 9 year champions, Ireland will be playing against a new, yet undefeated team, Scotland! And now entering will be Ireland! Led by captain Johannes Martin. Entering will be the award winning keeper, Drew Basel followed by beaters, Montage and Sullivan and chasers Bernstein and Sullivan. And here comes their new seeker, notorious for being quite a woman's man, Draco Malfoy!"
Seven members filed in a straight line, their green cloaks billowing behind them and brooms held tightly in front of them. They walked stiffly and sternly to their chairs which were on one side of the room facing another row of seven chairs on the other side.
"And now, let's welcome the Scotland team, first time competing in 575 years, undefeated this season… Let's give it up for Scotland! Led by Good Guy Jack Brown, seeker. Entering is the keeper, John Darnel. The beaters are Don Jones and Phillip Rankle, followed by 3 superb chasers, Angelina Johnson, Michael Fontal and Ginevra Weasley!"
Was Draco just imagining, or were fans cheering louder for them? Envy seeped into Draco as he watched the Scottish come in with their blue cloaks draped over their shoulders nonchalantly and carrying their brooms behind their shoulders, smiling at cameras and fans outside the window.
Ginny sat on the edge, exactly horizontal to Draco and smirked. He was glaring at her, but for a stupid reason probably; she was simply more popular.
And now it was a staring contest.
"Ginny. Psst, Ginny! They're asking you a question." Angelina whispered, jabbing Ginny's side.
Ginny shook her focus back on the conference, receiving a pompous grin on Draco's face.
"Miss Weasley, I'm from the Daily Prophet. Recently there was news about your sighting with Mr. Potter."
"Yeah, I saw that."
"Could you comment on it?" the reporter asked.
"Yeah, I can." Ginny replied briskly.
"…so… what do you have to say about it?"
"I think… that Daily Prophet is just the bullshi-"
"WHAT my dear friend Ginny is trying to say is that it's not true. She was with her brother and his friends to buy a broom polishing kit so that when we bring shame to Ireland, our brooms look good." Angelina cut off, smiling satisfactorily with her answer.
"Are you sure you can even afford a broom polishing kit, love? Last time I knew, you didn't even own a broom."
Ginny turned sharply back at Draco who was being high-fived by his teammates.
"Let me ask you a question, Mr. Malfoy. How much do you get paid?"
Draco looked back at the flushed girl and grinned. "More than you I assume. It's okay, darling. I prefer girls who stay at home and tend for the house."
"Why won't you tell me exactly how much?"
"Why should I?"
"Are you not telling us because you're too embarrassed to reveal that you're not being paid, but you're paying them? Because last time I knew, you were buying your way into all the Quiddtich teams." Ginny said coldly, the rest of her team chortling nervously.
"Please, next question." The announcer cut through.
"This question is for Mr. Martin of Ireland. How do you feel your team will round up this year, especially with your new seeker, Mr. Malfoy?"
"I think we will be better than ever. After all, it was not the members in the team that were superb, it was the amazing support and fans."
"Of course the fans love them, after all, they've slept with every one of them." Ginny muttered loudly.
"Darling, I'm sorry that we took all your fans." Draco bit back.
Ginny smirked. "We have fans too, fans who actually know the game of Quidditch and aren't only fans because Draco Malfoy fucked them."
"NEXT question."
"This question is for Draco Malfoy. Because you are a new member, the public does not know enough about your background. Could you elaborate for us?"
"Of course. I graduated from Hogwarts ranking high in academics. I began working with this team more for business and since I played seeker in school, I tried out for the spot when our beloved McDonnell retired."
"And also killed towns and towns of innocent lives as a death eater." Said Ginny.
"And it is also vastly rumored that you are certainly a woman's man. Would you care to say anything to that?"
"I'll just say this. I love all women. I treasure women and I think they are amazing. But I am not a cheater or a player. I am just a man in search of THE woman of my life, one I can cherish above all things and settle down with. I would give up anything, including earning a false reputation of a philandering man-whore."
"You don't love women, Malfoy. You love fucking them, throwing them away and taking a shower. Rather crude."
"Do you have a problem Weasley? It's not like I ever made love to YOU and 'quote on quote, threw you away.' Please refrain from publicizing my false background with women! Do you always have a wand stuck up your-"
"For 6 years now, I have lived each day, listening to heart drenching stories from my best friends and co-workers, each and every one of them having been trashed that morning by Draco Malfoy. Would you care to respond to that?"
"No, Draco Malfoy would not like to respond to that because this conference is OVER. There is no more we have to say. We'd have to wait until we win the cup." The captain said, standing up. The rest of the Ireland team stood up and stiffly walked back to the entrance much to the dismay of the fans and reporters.
"Good job, Ginny. Ireland just ran away from the conference."
"Well, if you were interested in what they had to say, what did Martin say? We'd just have to wait until we win the cup, Angelina. Jack, let's go. My business here is done."
Sorry for the long wait, guys! I've been a tad too busy and I kept changing the ending of this. I'm still not satisfied with this ending because it was too… blah and not fun enough so I'm sorry about that. I'm TRYING to suck out the most bad ass I can out of me to fit Ginny's character but it's still a bit hard.
I'm sorry if I don't update for another while longer. This weeks is going to be so packed with midterms and stuff, I don't know how much time I'd have to update!
Please review! Thanks to all of you who did:
Nyah1: thanks for the first review! I hope this chapter was good as well.
Louey31: Thanks! I tried making Draco the most man-whorey as possible so in the end he'd have a soft spot for uh… well… I can't tell you that. Haha, it's probably very easy to guess considering what pairing this story is under.
Eve Granger: Thanks! I hope this chapter fit your standards!
I'm Blond. James blond: I love your username. It's hilarious. And thanks for the review!
BabyBear089: Thanks. I'm really glad my writing was nice. I always have a hard time writing well even though I get all these ideas! Thanks for the review!
StarrCat: THANK YOU! Haha, I wouldn't write Harry/Ginny because I don't want to mess it up. I actually happen to like the pairing but I like Draco/Ginny a bit more when it comes to fanfiction. Tehe! And Draco didn't recognize Ginny. I should have made that more clear. Thanks for the review!
Twilights-pride: Thanks SO much for the review. I was really hoping Ginny's character won't be too bitchy, even though it does, in my opinion, in this chapter. Did you think Ginny was a bit too harsh on Draco? That's what I thought. Anyways, I don't want to explain Draco's side of the story to you yet but it is coming up. I don't like making Draco a complete nasty character. For a head's up, Draco DID actually feel bad for Isabel. Yeah, surprise surprise, but don't worry! Draco is still the bad ass man whore everyone loves. You'll see! Hope you liked this chapter
Jame's Fire: Hehe! You'll see whether Draco meant it or not. But I'll just tell you that Draco is not as bad as he is portrayed. He DOES have morals and values women. BUT! No worries, Draco will still be a bad ass man whore. You can't help but to love him. I hope you liked this chapter too! Thanks!
Lilaci: Thanks you so much! I'm really glad to hear that you think it will be good. That's the biggest worry of mine because I have a tendency of starting out great and slowly and slowly wearing out. I hope this chapter was good too! Thanks!
Phillexican: LOL, yeah, I feel bad for Isabel too. I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long… heh. Heh… Thanks for the review!
So…
REVIEW, GUYS! HEHEHEHE.
You know, I'm on the computer very often, most of my day, actually and since I have Gmail, every time I get an email, a little thing pops up from the bottom of my screen, and every time it comes up, especially after I submit a chapter, I get really excited and REALLY happy and jump out of my seat SO PLEASE help make this prolonged dreadful week a tad bit more lovely by reviewing! It doesn't even have to be a good review. Thanks!
And sorry, no excerpt because I haven't started on it yet, but I'll tell you a general plot.
There WILL be another Ginny-Draco argument and there WILL be Quidditch in the next chapter. heheheheheh!
