Ginny woke up the next morning, her red hair fanned out on the pillow beside her

Ginny woke up the next morning, her red hair fanned out on the pillow beside her. She had had a wonderful dream. She and Draco had met after a few years, on a ship his ship, and they realised they still cared for each other and they spent the night together. It had been a wonderful dream.

Ginny sat bolt upright when she heard a little clutter in her room. Sitting at the fireplace of her room was Draco Malfoy. He was sitting in a bathrobe with a huge grin on his face. Then Ginny realised it wasn't a dream and that it had been real. She wrapped the sheet around her like a toga and stepped across the room to where Draco sat. She sat down on his lap and placed her head on his shoulder while he kissed her hair and caressed her back. He was different this morning. He was caring and uncommanding, this was a different Draco to who she remembered at school. He whispered in her ear

"I have to go Ginny. I will see you later today, come by my office. Its on this deck."

"But… what about breakfast?"

"Don't you remember we had that at about 5am this morning?" Draco got up and started putting on his trousers and shirt.

"Ooh yeah. What time do you want me to come and see you?" Ginny got up and helped Draco do the buttons on his shirt.

"Erm…… anytime. You pop round after dinner. I will see you then." And with that he kissed her forehead and left.

Ginny pottered around her cabin in her room for the morning while she had a muggle radio playing and Westlife, her favourite muggle group (and mine personally) were singing all their songs and some of other peoples hits. Ginny thought they were fabulous, much better than some of the normal wizarding groups she listened to. She sang along while she cleaned and unpacked her suitcase. She then sorted out the money she needed and what she would wear for dinner tonight. The dinner gong sounded and Ginny put on a very summery dress over her bikini and walked off to dinner.

Draco sat in his office, thinking about that night. He couldn't get her out of his mind, especially when she was asleep. She had looked so beautiful, a smile crept onto his face when he thought of the 'adventure' they would have. The dinner gong had gone a while ago and Draco was counting down the moments until he saw Ginny again.

Pansy strolled into the office, wearing a very revealing top and a tight skirt. She gave Draco his appointment cards and his itinerary. She then sat on his desk, waiting for the daily kissing session. She would give him the world if he asked for it. Draco ignored her and she grabbed hold of his head and pulled him up off the chair he was sitting on in his office. She brought her lips down onto his and at first he was distant, but he loosened up as her hands went to the waistband of his trousers. He grabbed her back and thrusted towards her. He was getting into it as Pansy had removed her top and his hands went to the clasp of her bra when he looked at the door, which Pansy had locked before. Ginny was standing there, mouth wide open with a basket in her hands.

"I …er…. This is for you….." she said in a very quiet voice as she placed the basket on the chair beside the door, smiled and then ran out.

"GINNY" shouted Draco and ran out after her

"Draco where are you going?" Pansy said as Draco ran out the door.

Ginny ran at top speed up the stairs and onto the main sun deck where the pool was. There was no one on the deck as everyone was in the main dinning room having their dinner and watching the entertainment.

She tore off her dress, no longer caring and jumped into the water. It was cool and refreshing and Ginny, she paced herself and swam as fast and as hard as she could up the Olympic swimming pool. She was on her second lap when she burst out the water, crying and dying for breath. She wiped the tears out of her eyes when she saw someone sitting on the sun lounge watching her. Draco.

"Piss off and leave me alone!" and with that she took a big gulp of air and dived under water not daring to come up for air. Draco got up off the sun lounge and walked to the deep end of the pool. He jumped in wearing his very expensive Armani suit. It took Ginny a few minutes to realise that he wasn't swimming and he was lying on the bottom with his eyes closed and not moving. Ginny swore at herself and kicked her legs as fast as she could so she would be able to swim to the bottom of the pool and grab him before he killed himself. She grabbed him by the jacket and pulled him to the surface. He spluttered as she gave him the kiss of life.

" You stupid asshole. You trying to get yourself killed?"

"I figured this would be the only way you would possible talk to me again. Look I'm sorry. Pansy and me have had this thing going. It doesn't mean anything. I really like you Ginny. I want to be with you. Will you marry me?"

"WHAT? You want me to marry you after what I have just seen. You were about to have sex with her, in your office. You think that if I say yes I will forget the whole thing. Er no! Get lost Malfoy. I loved you. I loved you more than I loved Harry. How could you do this to me Malfoy. I thought you loved me."

"I do Ginny. I do love you. Marry me!"

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why should I marry you?"

"I don't know. Because you love me and I love you. I haven't stopped loving you since that time at the burrow where Potter interrupted us. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to have children with you.

'I want to grow old with you. I want to die lying in your arms.' To quote a stupid Muggle band!"

"They aren't stupid"

"Is that a yes?"

"Yes. It's a yes!"

Pansy stood outside Ginny's room after following Draco there. So Ginny Weasley was marrying Draco Malfoy. Well, she was welcome to him. She had no idea what Draco could and would do if something went wrong in the relationship. She quietly wished Ginny good luck as she would need it and disapparated from the ship.
