Ginevra Riddle

Dark Princess in Hiding


(Three weeks after the Feast)(Room of Requirement)

GPOV

I really think I am getting the hang of this schedule. Get up, don't talk to anyone, eat breakfast with the foolhardy idiots, go to class with Luna and Altair, then sneak out after hours and join the Slytherins in the Room of Requirement. Simple, the trio doesn't even notice me. I was wondering how Father planned to kill Potter when something interrupted my musings. It was Malfoy.

"Hey, Riddle." He greeted, plopping down on the couch I was laying on. He was more relaxed around me ever since he met Father. I still giggled at the memory.

Flashback

"Okay, everyone ready?" I asked looking around the room. The Slytherins and one Ravenclaw all nodded their heads. I opened the book slowly, speaking words I knew they wouldn't be able to understand.

"Open into the King's Lair." I said in parseltongue. A blinding light consumed all of those in the room. We all fell unceremoniously into a pile on Father's floor. The person I landed on groaned loudly. I giggled a little and brushed myself off, picking myself off of the bodies.

"Father, I'm back! And I brought that Draco Malfoy you told me to find." I smirked in the direction of Malfoy, seeing that he paled slightly. Father looked up from his book that he was reading and stared at the guests.

"These people aren't all Slytherins, are they?" he asked skeptically. Luna raised her hand as if she was in class. She must be hardwired for school. Father nodded to her, unsure if she was kidding or not.

"Sir, I've placed myself in Ravenclaw, so I could go undercover with Ginevra." She said. Father nodded again, switching his focus to Malfoy. I laughed loudly inside my mind at the expression written all over his face.

"So, you are Draco Malfoy?" Malfoy nodded meekly. "How is Lucius? I haven't seen him for. . ." Father counted in his head for a while, "11 years." Malfoy looked at him like he was kidding, but when Father looked at him expectantly, he decided that he wasn't.

"He's fine, I guess, He's really annoyed with one of the house elves though, Dobby, I think. He's been trying to find some way of getting rid of him without giving clothes to him. Can't let the others know he actually gave his house elf clothes." Malfoy smiled widely. Father laughed then whispered something in Malfoy's ear. I didn't like being out of the conversation, so I listened to Malfoy's thoughts.

'He's trusting me to protect his daughter?! Wow! This is such a privilege, but I've got to not tell Ginevra. Wouldn't she be angry with me if she knew?" I heard. I giggled, the girls looked at me like I was crazy, but this was funny. Malfoy, as my protector? It was hilarious.


"Riddle?" I was disturbed again by the same voice. I looked at him with annoyance.

"What?" I snapped at him.

"Your late for your appointment with your father." He reminded me. What? So he's my watch now too? He has been beyond annoying for the past week, I am going to have to tell Father to order him off me or something.

"Fine. Anything else, O Nagging One?" I asked sarcastically. He thought for a while. He actually thought, like it wasn't a rhetorical question.

"Halloween is in a week." He reminded. I huffed in annoyance and left to the black room.

Ginevra left to go to her Father, obviously annoyed with Draco. I don't know why, but she's been more on edge with him ever since we visited her father. Draco sighed, frustrated, when he knew she was out of ear shot.

"Hey, Dude, what's with you and Ginevra?" Blaise asked him.

"I'm suppose to be her protector, and while it has it's perks, it's so bloody annoying." He complained. Lovegood and I snickered. But once we realized that we both found it funny, we glared at each other. To say that we hated each other would be too small. I haven't liked her ever since she got to go undercover with Ginevra and not me.

"Sucks." I tried to sympathize. "Anyways, what should our club name be? 'Cause I was thinking something along the lines of Dark Brothers or something." I said. The rest looked at me quizzically. "Well, this is like a club right? Why not have a name for it. Oh, and the Founders should get special privileges, like be able to transform into animals like we have stuff do in Transfiguration." I explained. Then Miss-Know-It-All just had to butt in.

"It's called animagus." She sighed, annoyed. "Someone who turns into an animal is called an animagus. And I disagree on the name. It should be the Death Sisters, since Ginevra is the leader after all." She smirked at me. I stood up angrily.

"Dark Brothers!" I yelled at her.

"Death Sisters!" she yelled back in the same fashion. We continued yelling back and forth until someone stopped the debate.

"SHUT UP!" Ginevra screamed at us. Draco ran to her side, waiting to hear the news of her meeting, no doubt. She took an aggravated breath then spoke calmly. "If you two are really so into having these clubs of yours, then why not have two clubs, the Death Sisters and the Dark Brothers. Chose a leader of both and Nott can find something to turn us into animagus in one of his many books." She said frustrated, rubbing her head.

"Hey, Riddle, Do you need anything for that? It seems you have a headache." Draco asked her. She shook her head, walking to the couch. Draco followed her.

"You know what, I changed my mind. I'll choose the leaders. I'm leader of the Dark Sisters and Draco?" She looked at him innocently. "You wouldn't mind leading the Dark Brothers, would you?"

"No I—" he started.

"Good, because it is very time consuming. I wouldn't want you to have a strained schedule." She said sweetly. Lovegood laughed. What was the joke?

Oh, my, Ginevra was angry! To see the way she stared at Malfoy was hilarious! She deliberately tricked him into something that would keep him off her back for a few days. Too bad it won't last. She's been ripping out her hair with the stress of him following her around discreetly. She couldn't even complain out loud, or those Gryffindor brats would get suspicious. I feel so sorry for her. Oh my, Malfoy's face is funny. But Prince's face is funnier. He doesn't even know what's funny, the idiot.

"Luna, could I talk to you on our way back? I have some plans to discuss and your artistic abilities are just what I need." Ginevra addressed me from across the room. She left with her Father's book in her hand, exiting slowly through the door and turning the corner. I rushed after her, eager for the news. Before the door closed behind me on my way out I heard that annoying voice.

"Hey, where are you guys going? Wait for me!" Prince called. Ugh.
