2 days had passed since that heated moments in the forest. Although much to Ginny's disappointment that they hadn't kissed, one good thing had happened. She was almost sure that Draco felt something for her. He was so sweet that day, carrying her out , holding her until she calmed down. If only Ron hadn't interrupted. Who knows what would have happened.
Now it was the day of the hogsmede trip. Draco still hadn't told Ginny what it was she would be doing, it had been eating away at her all week. What if it was something gross? Or illegal? Her and Hermione had been discussing it ever since that moment in the forest, she had tried to convince Ginny that she should confess her feelings to Draco. But Ginny was too scared. What if he laughed at her and told the whole school? Well she only had to wait 3 more hours until they would go to hogsmede. Whatever Draco had in store for her , she would find out then.
11 'o clock and Ginny found herself on the Hogwarts express sitting in a compartment with Neville, Luna and Harry making the short journey to Hogsmede. She found her self sitting staring out the window. She wondered what Draco had in store for her. She didn't want him just coming up to her and demand she do whatever it is then, she wanted to know beforehand. She stood up and slid the door to the compartment open, making some excuse about finding Hermione. She traipsed the aisle until she saw Draco sitting in a compartment with Crabbe,Goyle and Blaise. She forced the nerves deep down and slid open the door to his compartment. All four heads turned to look at her, 3 of them wondering what on earth was a blood traitor like her doing in their compartment. But the other boy knew exactly what she was doing here. He motioned for Crabbe,Blaise and Goyle to leave. They were hesitant but after a death glare from Malfoy, they reluctantly stood to leave and Blaise shut the door behind him leaving Ginny and Draco alone together.
She took a seat opposite Draco and looked into his eyes for a moment. "So Draco, care to inform me what exactly it is that I am doing for you today?" Draco smirked and got up and sat as close to Ginny as he could without sitting on her lap. Her breathing started to speed up from the contact. Draco was so close to her, she could lean in and kiss him. It would be that easy. Before she could do anything though he leaned in and put his lips so close to her ear that they were almost touching it. He breathed into it "Meet me in the shrieking shack , at one." The shrieking shack? Ginny really didn't want to go in their, she had heard rumors that it was haunted. "Um, Draco... are you sure...?" He smirked and leaned back
"Completely." He said with such confidence that it made Ginny feel the slightest bit calmer.
When she stepped off the train and into Hogsmede she immediately headed to the three broomsticks to meet Cedric for that drink she had promised him. It was 12 o clock so she had 1 hour until she had to meet Draco. The warmth of the tavern was welcoming and much nicer than the snowy cold outside. She looked around for a table and quickly found Cedric sitting at one in the far corner. He saw Ginny and waved, pointing at two frothy butterbeers. She maneuvered her way through the crowded pub and sat down next to Cedric. "Hello, thanks for getting my drink" she said as she reached for her bag so she could pay him back. Cedric noticed this, "It's on me Gin" He said. Again Ginny found herself thinking what a great guy Cedric is. "So ,Ginny tell me, is there anyone special in your life?" He inquired.
"yeah there's Hermione,Harry..." Cedric interrupted.
"No I mean like a boyfriend." Ginny blushed, Cedric seemed pretty trustworthy. Maybe she could tell him about Draco?
"Well there is someone, but I wouldn't call him a boyfriend. What about you?"
"Well.. ah... You know Cho? In Ravenclaw? I've been thinking about asking her out." He confessed. Ginny beamed, it was good that he had forgotten about the whole mix up with Hermione. Ginny suggested that he try and find her now and take her to madame Puddlefoot's tea shop." and with that Cedric downed his drink and left. Ginny also downed her drink and walked out of the cosy pub back into the chilly winters air. She pulled her coat collar tight around her face as a shield from the wind. She had 10 minutes to walk to the shrieking shack. She wondered why on earth they were meeting there of all places. The possibility of a set upon Draco's part ran through her mind but somehow Ginny knew that this wasn't the case.
Ginny gingerly pushed open the door to the shrieking shack. It lead to a fairly light but dusty and manky passage way. She cautiously walked through it, wondering what would be on the other end. The passage way lead to a door which stood ajar , as if someone had recently gone through. She figured Draco must already be here. She felt more butterflies in her stomach. Without giving herself time to turn back, she bravely stepped into the room. Instead of the dusty,broken and trashed room that she expected to see, what she saw was a bright room with a king sized mattress on the floor. There was a small table in the corner and on the wall closest to her was a couch with a smirking Draco Malfoy sitting on it.
"Hello Weaslette." He said walking over to her.
"um.. Hi. Can I just ask, what exactly are we doin... " She broke off because Draco had stood right in front of her as close as he could get without touching her. He looked her in the eyes and pulled the drawstring on his cloak and pulled it off and threw it of into the far corner. He was wearing a black button up long sleeved shirt with Black pants. He looked so sophisticated. She could smell his hot breath on her neck. It smelled like peppermint. Ginny's heart started racing. Draco must have sensed it because he smiled to himself. He locked his eyes on hers as he reached to take her travelling cloak off her shoulders and he threw it to join his.
Ginny gulped. She was considering being brave and leaning up to kiss him but just when she was about to take the plunge Draco turned and sat on the edge of the bed. "Draco why are we in the shrieking shack? What is it that I have to do?" She wondered. She could see something in his eyes, it was like fire... was it lust? No surely not. But even though she doubted it, she still found her self hoping. Draco patted the space on the bed beside him. "Come on Weaslette. I know you want this. I've seen the way you look at me. " As if she was in a trance she obliged. Draco put his hand on her bare thigh and slowly guided it up under the hem of her skirt. "Say you want me." Ginny gulped.
"I want you, Draco."
