Sunlight drifted in through the pale rose colored curtains. Ginny's eyes fluttered sleepily open. For the first time in ages, she felt well rested. A small smile reached her lips as Ginny stretched out like a cat after a well deserved nap. That's when she realized who's arms she was still tightly wrapped within. She could feel Draco's breath, hot against her neck. The feel of her head resting against his hard muscular chest made her feel warm inside. Last night, his kisses had made her even warmer. Ginny stiffened slightly as she recalled her wanton displays of the previous evening…

How could she have betrayed Harry so whole heartedly. Here his memory was barely cold within the hearts of many and she, his recent love was throwing herself into the arms of the enemy. Ginny ached to feel Harry's arms around her once again. Had she been so desperate for this attention that she would allow Draco Malfoy of all people to replace Harry within her heart. What kind of monstrous person was she? Suddenly she knew how to right this terrible wrong.

Silently she slipped from the bed. Her bare feet crossing swiftly to the ornate bathroom. She quietly began filling the tub with warm water. She let her nightgown fall gently to the floor. As she slipped into the rapidly filling tub, a look of fierce determination dominated her face. She winced only slightly as the cold metal of the sharp razor pierced her soft warm flesh. She watched silently as the crimson blood flowed slowly from her veins. Her vision became foggy and her breath came in shallow bits. All Ginny could think was that soon she would be with her Harry once again, she would no longer be weak to Draco's manipulations. Soon she would be at Harry's side…

Draco awoke with a sudden start. He had been dreaming of the beautiful red headed girl who had been in his arms. Just now he had realized she was gone from his arms. He could hear the water running in the adjoining bath. He called out her name several times. It worried him to not get a response, so he boldly entered the bathroom. The sight which met his eyes was one of pure horror. Ginny laying in the now overflowing tub, the red of her blood being mixed into the water which was turning a sick pinkish colour. He rushed to her side, grabbing a towel to apply pressure to her wrists where the wounds were. "Ginny" he cried out, "Please… Stay with me…" He pulled her naked body from the tub and quickly apparated to St. Mungos…

Ginny had been in a coma for a week. Not having the will to come back to the living, yet not having the strength to fight for the death she so desperately desired. Draco was surprisingly distraught over Ginny's fragile state. He had barely left her side. Lucius had loudly expressed his opinions of Ginny's failed suicide attempt. He had been appalled that Ginny had not used magic to try to kill herself. Instead choosing a muggle form of suicide which he of course despised. He said that even tho she was a pureblood, she acted like a common muggleborn. He had begged Draco to choose another bride. He had even tried to bribe his son into breaking off the engagement.

Draco had been appalled at his father's reaction to Ginny's attempted suicide. The moment Draco had entered that bathroom and seen Ginny lying there so helpless and so near death, he had realized his true feelings for her. Since Ginny's arrival at Malfoy Manor, Draco had felt a connection to the fiery redhead. He had tried to convince himself that it was only because of her beauty and his desire to have her in his bed. After the recent events of a week ago, he had to admit his deep feelings for her. Somehow Ginny Weasley had broken through the icy shell that contained Draco's heart, she had awakened feelings in him that he had never felt before. At long last Draco knew what it was to love someone other than himself. With these newfound feelings he now knew what it was to fear losing that someone forever…
