Chapter 1
Unexpected lifestyle
Ginny Weasley slumped tiredly onto a stool at the hogshead bar after a long shift serving several drunken wizards. She took off her apron and started counting her tips along with the other girls who worked there.
" Pretty good night huh ?" Said a tall blond named helen
" Yea I did pretty well." Ginny responded sadly. Never in her life would she believe that she would resort to such things for money. Everyone knew that the girls who worked at the hogshead wore tight skirts and tolerated a little more then other waitresses.
" Don't look so sad kid, things will get better"
" Thanks hel, I'm gonna head home. See you tomorrow ?"
" I'll be here." Ginny gathered her things and made her way home, apperating to the gate that led to the burrows garden. She took out her wand and transfigured her skirt into pants and placed a refreshing charm on herself to cover up the smell of smoke and alcohol.
" Hi mum, dad , I'm home." She walked into the living room and curled up on a chair across from her parents.
" Ginny dear you look exhausted"
" Long night" She responded
" I wish you wouldn't work so hard." Her mother pleaded.
" It's alright mum, I want to help. I'm going to bed. Goodnight."
" Goodnight" They called after her.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
" Hey Guys what can I get ya ?" Ginny asked for what felt like the thousandth time that night. The table of men looked up at her taking in her low cut shirt and short skirt. Ginny closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
" Girl, you look good tonight. Mmm."
" What can I get you ?" She said again.
" 4 shots of firewhiskey and your name." He said tugging on the bottom of her skirt.
" It's Ginny" She said before turning on her heel and heading to the bar.
Ginny was waiting by the bar for her order when Helen came up to place hers.
" Gonna be a long night."
" You're telling me, My ass is almost sore from the pinching."
" I know but if you let them do it you get a bigger tip."
Ginny put shots of firewhiskey on her trey when the door opened and 4 clocked men walked in, known death eaters. She recognized one as Lucius Malfoy.
" Speaking of a long night" Ginny said making her way over to serve the whiskey.
" Thanks sweetheart" The man said licking his lips and placing large tip on her tray. She smiled at him and turned to make her way over to the table the death eaters sat at.
She tried to avert her eyes as to not have to look at them.
" Can I take your order ?"
" Yea we'll have....well,well, well boys look what we have here. The littlest Weasley." Lucius said. The other men snickered.
" I always knew you'd end up selling yourself." Lucius said he reached out to touch her but she backed away.
" I'm a waitress Mr. Malfoy I do not sell myself. Now what can I get you ?"
" Please girl, Does your father know you work here ? Everyone knows that the waitresses here are one step up from Knockturn alley whores." Ginny could not stop the tears that were welling up in her eyes.
" Not everyone can live off a trust fund."
" Yes I know, I doubt your father even knows what a trust fund is. I'll take a scotch on the rocks." She wrote down his order along with the others and left.
Ginny just kept reminding herself that the money was for her parents, who would do anything for her and now it was her turn to do anything for them.
She came back a little later to clear some glasses off the table and without thinking she leaned over the table to get a glass instead of walking around it.
" You know Weasley, I would never have believed you would turn into such a pretty little thing" Mulciber said running a hand up her exposed leg. Ginny jumped and almost dropped the tray when she went to smack his hand away.
" We'll be sure to tell Our Lord." Rabastan added.
A wave of panic shot through Ginny so fast she thought her heart would explode " Wha...Why would you t..tell him?" She stammered.
Lucius let out a sadistic chuckle and she could tell not everyone at the table knew the answer to her question.
" Well knowing that you two are old friends I'm sure he would find it amusing that you are working here." Ginny's face went stark white.
" Come on fellows, I think it's time to head back" they all rose from the table and Lucius dropped money on the table.
He ran a cold finger across her cheek as he said" relax Weasley the Dark Lord has better things to worry about then a blood traitor." And to Ginny's great relief he left, she was so happy to see them go she didn't care that they didn't leave a good tip.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The group of death eaters apperated back to Malfoy Manor and stumbled into the foyer in a drunken stupor.
" I wouldn't mind having a go at the Weasley girl " Rabastan said.
" Yea she sure grew up nice" Another said.
" Arthur would freak if he knew she was working there. I think I'll go tell him tomorrow." Lucius added.
"Lucius" A cold voice called from the top of the stairs. His head snapped up to see The Dark Lord looking down at them. They immediately dipped into a bow.
"Lucius I require a word with you in my study." He turned and walked away while Lucius made his way up the stairs.
Lucius entered the study that had once been his. He had long since lost his authority over the manor. Voldemort went and sat behind the large mahogany desk and motioned for Lucius to sit across from him.
" You saw her tonight ?" He asked. Over the years Tom had not forgotten about Ginny. He had not seen her since she was 11 but he gave Draco the task of watching her for him.
" We did."
"And"
" She is working as a waitress at the Hogshead."
" The Hogshead !" He repeated, unable to hide the shock and anger he was feeling. His little Ginny was working in a less then reputable bar.
"Yes M' Lord" He mumbled.
" What is she doing there ?" He asked more to himself then to Lucius who answered anyway.
" My guess is that she needs the money, Arthur no longer works at the ministry, The house had been put under the fedalius charm." Tom leaned back in his chair.
" How did she look ?"
" Look M'Lord ?"
" I haven't seen her since she was 11 ! How was she dressed ! Did she look tired ? to thin ? Sad ?" He yelled, beginning to lose his temper.
" She was dressed like the others." He said nervously. Lucius was not stupid, He knew it would make Tom mad to hear about Ginny and that Tom would take it out on the only other person in the room.
" Which was, Lucius do not play games with me. Tell me" He growled.
" A short tight skirt and a low cut shirt." Lucius could see Tom's eyes darken.
" Go on" He coaxed.
" She looked tired, thin and ... embarrassed. I dare say she doesn't see very many people she knows there so she was embarrassed when I saw her."
Lucius thought he saw Tom's hand twitch towards his wand and he cracked his neck.
" Did you touch her ?"
" No M' Lord" He said knowing the only reason he didn't was because she didn't let him.
" Did she let others ?" Lucius shifted uncomfortably in his chair before he answered.
" Yes, They do it for the tips, sir."
"Thank you Lucius you are dismissed" Lucius left the study like a bat outta hell. Tom sat for a minute thinking before pouring himself a glass of scotch. He downed it in one gulp and smashed it against the wall.
Tom paced the room for a few minutes fuming mad. It was bad enough she dated potter, dean thomas and Michael corner. Every time he asked Draco about her she was dating a different guy and now she was letting strange men touch her for money. His Ginevra, acting like a common whore. He could not allow her to live like that. He would have to go save her.
