A/N: So here's chapter 2!
team.114: Thank you so much!
"Malfoy!" Ginny answered, maybe a little too loud. Really? Of course I run into Malfoy. Damn, Karma hates me. He does look cute today. Wait what?
"Watch yourself weasel, the next time I won't be as nice." Draco replied with a dangerous look in his eyes.
They stood a few seconds in silence just staring at each other. Draco couldn't help but notice how beautiful Ginny's eyes were. They were a bright hazel, but he could also see sadness in them. Has she been crying? Draco asked himself.
Suddenly the train shook and they both came back to reality. Ginny shook her head and continued to walk her way down the corridor. As soon as she reached the toilets tears started to fall down again. She looked in the mirror and sighed deeply as she saw her red eyes.
"Is everything allright?" She suddenly heard. She quickly spun around and met the eyes of Ron, staring at her looking worried. Behind him stood Hermione, with the same look on her face.
"Yes Ron, I am perfectly fine. Can't you see? Life is just so bloody perfect at the moment!"
"Gin.. What happened? Was it Malfoy? I just saw him walking through the corridor. That little bastard!" Ron replied angrily, ready to storm off to Malfoy.
"No! He didn't do anything! It's nothing. Whatever." Ginny managed to slip past Ron and before he could say or do anything, she was already out of sight.

Draco enterted the Great Hall to have dinner. As he walked past the Gryffindor table a few girls started to giggle. He smirked and winked at them.
"What do all the girls see in that prat?" Harry asked no one in particular while glaring at Malfoy.
Ron started laughing. "Are you jealous mate? What's the problem? He didn't even wink at Lun.." He was cut off by Harry. "RON!" "What? Did I say something wrong?" Ron answered confused.
Harry looked at Ginny to see if she had heard him. And she definitely had. So I was right! He does have a crush on Luna! Ginny thought, getting angry and sad at the same time.
"Excuse me." She said, feeling the urge to walk up to Luna and break her nose. As she left the Great Hall she noticed that Draco was staring at her. What does he want?
After winking at the girls, Draco walked over to the Slytherin table and sat down in between Blaise and Pansy. Pansy started talking about make-up and how great it would be if she and him got back together, but he wasn't paying attention at all. All he had eye for was the youngest Weasley. Why am I staring at the Weaslette? She's quite hot though. Maybe I should give her my special treatment. But how? Suddenly Ginny got up and walked out of the Great Hall. What's wrong? Wait, I don't care. He sighed and started to eat his dinner.
•••
"Mister Malfoy, I would like to see you after class." Professor McGonagall said to Draco. Draco already knew what this was going to be about: his grades for transfiguration hadn't been the best lately. He just didn't have the concentration at all.
After the lesson had ended, Draco walked to McGonagall's desk.
She looked up from her work and started talking. "It has come to my attention that you are failing my class. I see no other option than to assign you a tutor." A tutor?! Please no! It's probably gonna be Granger. I don't know if I can deal with her.
Draco sighed deeply and waited for professor McGonagall to finish.
"I have already picked out a student and she has agreed to help you." Yup, there we go. McGonagall said "she". I am definitely going to be tutored by Granger. After a few seconds of silence Draco realized professor McGonagall wasn't talking anymore.
"Great!" Draco said, sounding slightly sarcastic, "And who may this tutor be?"
"Miss Ginevra Weasley. She is one of my best students and I'm sure she can help you out." Did she just say Ginevra Weasley? Draco most certainly hadn't forgotten his plan of the night before. It was almost too good to be true. He still wasn't quite sure how he was going to do it, but one thing he knew for sure: I am going to let that little Weasley scream my name.
"I will send the both of you a note with the day and time you will be meeting. Good luck mister Malfoy." And with that said, she focused on her work again.
As Ginny left her last class of the day she wondered if she had done the right thing. What the bloody hell am I doing? Tutoring Draco freaking Malfoy! Come on Gin, it's nothing but business. Think about that broom you really want to buy. The only reason Ginny signed up to be a tutor was because she was saving up for a broom. She had just entered her room when an owl tapped on the window, carrying a letter.
"Dear Ginevra Weasley,
I have spoken to Draco Malfoy and he has agreed to be tutored by you. Your first meeting will be tomorrow night at 6 o'clock, right after dinner. You will meet in the library. Good luck!
Sincerely,
Minerva McGonagall"
"She has to be kidding. It's saturday tomorrow!" Ginny said to herself. "I hope this is worth my time."
•••
At breakfast all she could do was think about the tutoring lesson she would be giving that evening. Suddenly she heard a voice, coming from behind her.
"Gin, can we talk?" She turned around meeting the green eyes of Harry.
"Sure, what is it you want to talk about?" Ginny answered, getting annoyed. He had rejected her, he didn't have to make it even harder for her to get over him. When Harry saw that she wasn't getting up he added, "Not here."
Ginny sighed and got up, reluctantly following Harry outside the Great Hall.
Draco stared at the two leaving Gryffindors from across the Great Hall. Where is she going with Potter? That bastard better not do anything with her. She is mine. I have to be the one to take that innocence out of her eyes. Wait is she even a virgin? Hmm, yeah, pretty sure she is. She didn't date anyone else besides that Thomas kid right? His thoughts were interrupted by the disturbing voice of Pansy Parkinson.
"Drakey-pakey! Let's meet at your room tonight. I was hoping you could help me with some homework?" She said, leaning forward to show some of her cleavage to Draco.
"Pansy, how many times do I have to tell you that there is nothing going on between us. Leave me alone and go find someone who does want to fuck with you." Draco answered coldly.
Pansy snorted and walked away. "Good one mate." Blaise laughed.
"Whatever, she will probably shag Crabbe or Nott tonight, if it's not the both of them. No, I'm not interested in Pansy." Draco smirked and almost immediately his thoughts went to a certain red head.
Blaise chuckled. "Oh, a new conquest then? Who is she?"
"'She' is none of your business."
"Oh come on Drake, just tell me already." Blaise responded, not being pleased with that answer.
Draco sighed and thought for a second. Should I tell him? "Fine, if you must know, it's Ginny Weasley. I don't know if you have seen her but she has gotten quite an ass over summer."
"Yes Drake I have definitely seen her! Who hasn't? All the boys are talking about how hot she has gotten and I can't blame them for it. You will probably get problems with her brother, though. I heard he's really protecting. Whatever, no one who can stop us from doing our thing." They both laughed and enjoyed their dinners.
"What do you want Harry?" Ginny found herself staring in his deep green eyes again. Damn it! You've got to stop this. He doesn't like you Gin, get over it.
"I just wanted to let you know that I'm sorry." Harry said, looking at the floor.
Ginny had trouble supressing a laugh. "You wanted to tell me that you're sorry? After I cried myself to sleep every night? It may have slipped your attention, but I were deeply in love with you Harry. I can't blame you for not thinking about me, though. I understand that Luna is way more important than me." And with that said, she left without looking back.
Shit! I have to go to the library to meet Malfoy. Ginny realized as she was walking back to her dorm. She thought about not going, but knew that wasn't an option. She sighed deeply and started to make her way to the library. After she walked in and noticed that Malfoy wasn't there yet, she walked over to a table and sat down.
"Good evening." A voice, coming from behind her, said. Ginny's head shot up.
"Malfoy! You scared the shit out of me!" She shouted.
"Easy Weasley." He said, but with a smirk on his face. God, that stupid smirk. I wish he would just stop doing that. 'No you don't.' What? Yes I do! 'Nope, you love his smirk don't even try to deny it.' Ginny sighed deeply.
"Have you already had enough of me Weasley? It's only been five minutes!" His smirk got even bigger.
"Whatever Malfoy. Let's start working." She motioned to get her stuff out of her bag but Draco interrupted her.
"We're not doing this here are we?"
"Um, where else would you want to do this, if I may ask?" Ginny answered, getting a little annoyed.
Draco replied after rolling his eyes. "What about an empty classroom. I don't want people to stare."
"Fine." She grumbled and followed him out of the library.
•••
Draco sat down in a chair and took out A Guide to Advanced Transfiguration.
"So what is it you're having trouble with?" Ginny asked him.
"It's like, everything. I mean how the hell are you supposed to transform a rat into a tea cup? It's bloody impossible!" He began to get angry, but didn't understand why. Come on Draco. Try to be at least a little nice to her.
"Alright how about you try to get the rat to be a tea cup, then I'll watch you and maybe find out what the problem is." Ginny said to him, trying to sound nice.
Draco mumbled something to himself but did as she asked. He pointed his wand at the rat and surprisingly, something happened. Well, if you can call it something. In front of Draco was now standing a hairy tea cup with a tail.
"See that's what happens all the time!" Draco glared at the tea cup and sighed deeply. "Stupid thing." He said under his breath.
"I feel like you aren't concentrated enough. Is there anything bothering you? If you don't mind telling me of course." She added, after she saw the look on his face.
"It's just.." He began saying with a soft voice. Wait she doesn't have to know. "None of your business."
"But if you want help.." Ginny started.
"You know what Weasley I think we are done for today. Bye." He grabbed his book and quickly walked out of the classroom, leaving a very confused Ginny behind.
What's going on with him? Jeez, I can't even ask a normal question without getting hate. Whatever. She shrugged and stood up too, leaving the classroom as empty as it was before.
What the hell is wrong with you? Draco shouted at himself as he was walking back to his dorm. Now she thinks I'm some sort of idiot who isn't even capable of answering a normal question. He sighed deeply and continued thinking, while walking through the porthole.
•••
It had been two weeks since their last tutoring lesson. Ginny tried to focus on school work, but she regularly caught herself thinking about Draco. It was the same the other way around. The only thing Draco had eye for was the red headed Gryffindor. That's it. Draco thought when he once again saw her walking through the hallway. I have to do something.
Ginny laid in bed listening to music when she heard ticking on the window. She walked to the window and saw a beautiful light brown owl carrying a letter.
"Weasley,
Meet me at my room tonight. I have something I want to discuss with you.
Draco Malfoy"
"Well let's go then." Ginny said to herself, and without even realizing it, she started to get nervous.
A/N: And that's the end of chapter 2! I know it's kinda boring between them but I didn't want to rush their relationship. I however promise that in the next chapter, there will be some action between them. Also, if there are grammar mistakes, please ignore them. I'm not the greatest at spelling. Love, Hannah.
