Draco walked back to the castle alone, his hands shoved into his pockets, muttering things under his breath. He just HAD to get her back, somehow. Would she ever even speak to him again after that? He didn't intentionally walk into Zonko's. He thought it was Honeydukes! He was just in such deep of thought…Draco walked into the castle. He felt himself not knowing what to do.

"So, heard you got a thing for Miss Weasel?" Pansy's voice broke into his thoughts. He felt himself turn red with anger, why in bloody hell wouldn't the stupid bitch leave him alone?!

"Pansy…that's none of your business if I do or not. So shut it," he hissed at her. Draco felt angrier than ever. He actually wanted to just punch her in her ugly face, but he knew he was more of a man than that.

"I think it might be everyone else's business that you're ditching everyone for her. Heh. What will everyone say? The great Draco Malfoy's in love with a Gryffindor Weasel!" Pansy laughed. She crossed her arms, smirking. Draco felt defeated.

"Pansy, that's not true. It's a rumor!" he tried to sound more honest, but he knew that she wouldn't believe it.

"That's not what Goyle and Crabbe said Mr. Malfoy!" Pansy took another step closer to him.

"What ever happened to us?" she whispered as she hugged him. Draco just blinked, he couldn't believe this. Was she just being jealous? Probably. He just hugged her back and walked away. He was sick of her.

Draco walked back outside. It was starting to turn to night, there was a curfew, but what did he care? It's not like it was the first time he'd get into trouble. He walked over to the lake, looking into the water. He felt the cool water. He let out a small sigh and leaned up against a tree.

Something caught his eye. He drew his wand out. He wasn't sure if it was a creature or what it was. It could have been something from the Forbidden Forest, Draco was fairly close to it.

"Lumos," Draco whispered. His wand tip lit up. He noticed that it was a person, a girl. Draco was hoping that it wasn't Pansy, because if it was, he swore to himself that he'd throw her into the lake.

Wait a second, that wasn't Pansy… it was Ginny! Draco's heart started racing as she walked towards him. He didn't know if she recognized him or not. He lowered his wand and watched as she approached.

"So…you didn't mean to give me a defected box of chocolates?" Ginny sweetly asked as she sat on a large rock near the lake.

"No, I swear on it, Ginny," Draco replied softly. His voice was calm. He looked at her and put his wand on the ground, the tip still lit lighting the area between them. She looked so beautiful in the night.

"Pansy told me. She said that you fancied me. Which means what you said to me at Hogsmeade is true, but Draco, I can't believe it," Ginny spoke calmly. She sounded upset. She was looking at the lake when she spoke, not even in his direction.

Draco's heart was beating quicker than any other time. He was just so weak around her, he wanted it to go away. It was tearing him apart on the inside. Draco looked at her.

"Why's that?" he asked, almost a whisper. Draco didn't even know if she heard him or not. She looked at him and got off the rock and took a few steps near him.

"Because! You know why. You're a Malfoy! My whole family hates you. Everyone hates you!" Ginny sounded like she crying. Draco looked at her, she was crying, but didn't that have to mean that she had feelings for him as well?

Ginny went to get off the rock but she slipped and fell. Draco watched as she fell into the lake. He couldn't help but start laughing. He walked over to try to help her up.

When we looked down at her, she also was smiling widely. She was standing knee deep in lake water and she started laughing.

"You alright?" Draco asked in between laughs. He watched as Ginny looked down at her soaked body.

"Yes, I'm fine! But you won't be!" Ginny yelled as she splashed Draco with the water. He laughed as the water hit him. It felt nice to sit and have a good moment with Ginny. Draco couldn't believe that Pansy would do this for him. Draco's guess was that him being rude to her was finally getting to her thick head.

Ginny climbed out of the water. Her shirt was sticking closely to her body, as well as her pajama pants that she was wearing underneath her robe. She started laughing again when she looked down.

" Tergeo!" Ginny said her wand pointed at herself. Her clothes and hair quickly dried, and seemed to become neat, even neater than when she walked out.

"Much better," Ginny said smiling to herself. She looked at Draco. Draco walked over to her.

"You always look good,Ginny," Draco said as he pulled her into a hug. He wanted to kiss her, but he knew that he couldn't. Something told him not to, but he couldn't help himself. He looked at her and kissed her softly.
