Love at Long Last

Chapter 2: Unreal

****

Ginny was silent after Draco slapped her, and they stood there for seconds, moments... for almost an eternity it seemed to them. Draco heaved with anger and detest, Ginny cowered under him. Finally, Draco took his hands off of Ginny's shoulders and stepped back, as if inviting her to leave...

Ginny moved to leave, but as soon as she took two steps away from him, Draco grabbed her wrist, with his left hand, and pulled her back.

'Where do you think you're going?' He whispered, danger sounding in his voice.
'I was going inside.' Ginny answered weakly still frightened by him.
'Well, let's look over the situations, shall we?' Draco continued, 'You are the puppet,' He said and put his right hand on her face gently where he had slapped her, 'And I, my dear, am the puppeteer. You are in my control, and my possession.'

Startled by his words and by his hand on her face, Ginny stood there in pure shock.

'I am not your possession! And neither am I in your control!' Ginny said angrily.
'How dare you speak to me in that fashion!' Draco yelled and he pulled her closer to him so that he was breathing on her, 'You! You still don't get it do you? I can do what ever I want to you right now... and no one would be here to save you.'

Ginny watched his face, and was disgusted by it. How dare he! How dare he say those things to me! She thought and then she did the first thing she could think of, she spit in his face.

'ARGH!' Draco yelled and pushed her against the wall. 'You little bitch!' he said strongly. And he grabbed her face. He traced her lips, 'You shall pay.' Draco said to Ginny, but more to her lips.

Then he pulled her into a bruising kiss. Then he pushed her to the ground...

Falling to the ground, Ginny landed on her back. Luckily, she wasn't hurt... But her fall made her start to cry, once again. She sat up, but when Draco saw her tears Draco, when he saw this, grew angrier.

'Now what is it!' He yelled.
'It-it's just t-that...' Ginny said between sobs. 'It's just so hard sometimes...'
'What?' Draco said annoyed.
'It's just so hard sometimes... when you think about it. No one cares about you, no one recognizes you accept as "Ron's little sister" or "Potter's girlfriend."' Ginny said.

Immediately recognizing her pain, Draco sat down next to her. He felt pity for this girl, the poor wretch... she felt the same way he did.

'You think you're the only one who feels pain?' Ginny said. 'Well, you're not! The reason I miss Harry so much is because...' Ginny trailed off realizing what she was going to say.
'Why? Why will you miss him?' Draco said almost as a command.
'He... well, it was the first time I actually felt happy, secure, and loved...' Ginny said quietly.
'How about your family? The whole Weasley Bunch is bound to be a little damn happy.' Draco said.
'It seems that way doesn't it...' Ginny said distantly, 'There's really no love at home... we always fight. There's no love anywhere... there's no reason for me to be here...'
'Oh God, oh fuckin' god.' Draco muttered.
'What?' Ginny asked.
'You're not going to kill yourself are you?'
'Well... I... I mean maybe I thought about it...'
'What the hell do you think that will prove!?' Draco yelled at her, pulling her up and shaking her.
'Why does it matter!' Ginny screamed pulling away from him, 'There's no one here who wants me near them, is there?'
'You're not the only one with these problems, you know. But you don't see them going off and killing themselves, do you?' Draco said sternly.
'Umm... well...' Ginny said.
'Exactly.'
'Well it's not like you have these problems! Sure, you have some problems with people... but then you go and hurt them, just like you're doing to me!' Ginny said furiously.
'Actually, you are my first victom.' Draco said staring at her with angry eyes which made her quiet. 'Every single day I feel pain, physical and emotional, that you would never think possible! You're taking everything for granted... and that, if anything, would be the reason you don't deserve your life!' Draco yelled, Ginny gasped, 'Your family loves you. That's why I hate you so much!'
'That doesn't give you the right to do these things to people!' Ginny yelled.
'Do what?' Draco said.
'Harass people.' Ginny stated plainly.
'Whatever.' Draco said running a hand through his blonde hair, 'I'm going.'
'Where do you think you're going? Why do I care? I'm going back and reporting you to Dumbledore...' Ginny said but was interrupted...
'You wouldn't dare.' Draco said warningly. 'Or you will feel worse pain and agony then you did tonight.'

Saying this he walked off into the castle, leaving Ginny alone and with her thoughts. And right now the only thing she could think of was that 'This is so unreal...'
