A/N: Sorry for the wait. I haven't really been too creative lately, anyway I didn't know what to do for this chapter so I hope you enjoy…

Chapter 4

I was in my own world, believing that I was asleep, even though it was only half true. I could still hear my radio playing all those awful songs I disliked, while my eyes were closed and my imagination free. What really woke me up however was the dropping of pans from downstairs and the stifled shrieks of my mother. Just as I propped my head up and rubbed my eyes I noticed my door open a crack.

I glanced from the friendly face of Mackenzie, walking brightly into my room, to the bright red numbers on my clock; 7:22pm. Mackenzie smiled and tossed a magazine on my bed all the while taking a comfy seat behind me.

"Hey there sleepy head. On my way up here I noticed your mom is a bit of a klutz. ..Did you have a long day? " Mackenzie chuckled slightly.

I groaned and picked up the magazine, rolling my eyes, "You wouldn't believe it if I told you."

Kenzie gave me a knowing grin with a twinkle in her eyes, reminding me of Dumbledore, "Oh I think I might."

I glanced down at the tabloid's cover and back at her. She laughed.To my dissapointment, I wasn't the one featured on the cover, (you never know) plus I had been secretly hoping… Instead there lay a picture of Malfoy leaving the café I work at, in fumes. The headline read; 'Malfoy in a rage over the fellow A-Lister Alex Berkin.' Personally I was confused, there hadn't been much 'rage' between the two this afternoon, just a lot of tight lipped speaking and Alex coming to my sigh rescue.

I opened my mouth to ask Kenzie what the meaning of bringing this article over was, but got cut off when I looked up at her to see her glaze over in shock and fall off my bed to the floor. I quickly followed her gaze to my door only to shriek in surprise.

Alex Berkin. In my doorway stood Alex Berkin! I hastily took a glance at myself in the mirror. My hair was frizzy, my makeup smeared, and there was drool on my pillow… ugh! To save me from my own shock Mackenzie groaned from the floor.

I peered over the edge of my bed and laughed at my best friend sitting cross-legged on the floor with her head in her hands. She glowered up at me and hissed, "You could've warned me that America's hottest male was going to make an appearance."

I smiled, "I could've, and would have… if I had known!"

"Come on, I wouldn't have come if I had known your friend was going to be here." Alex shrugged apologetically.

Mackenzie grumbled her face a beautiful embarrassment red, "Yeah, well I wouldn't be here if the two lovebirds, Colin and Luna, could keep their hands to themselves."

There followed an awkward silence where I eyed Alex as he eyed me, and Mackenzie eyed the both of us looking at each other. "So I guess your surprise visit caused my mom to make the loud shuffle of pots that woke me up." I looked at Alex.

He smiled, "I don't think she's used to boys appearing in your fireplace ...uh Ginny. So I was thinking of taking you out for some fun tonight. I think you're the only person here in London that doesn't try to get into bed with me."

I glanced at Mackenzie and then back at him. But he continued to talk after glancing at the gossip magazine lying on my bed, "I wish they would stop comparing me too that bloody Malfoy kid. What happened between us was settled years ago, and besides I don't care for wealth and the number of girls in my bed, I'm just out there for fun."

Oh. I would've guessed that he didn't give a care to what the magazines printed about him.I nodded my head in agreement thinking if this hot guy was real or just a dream. He was hot like Malfoy but Alex has everything I dream of in a guy: money, looks, feelings, sincerity, and a heart. The only thing Malfoy has got is looks.

Alex glanced at me and sighed, "So do you two want to go out, or not?"

I couldn't believe my hearing, "Both of us!

"Don't act surprised Ginny, you didn't actually think I wanted to go on a date did you?" He smirked, I wish he wouldn't do that smirk, it was a Malfoy smirk.

I was aggravated. The way he keeps saying my name, of course I would assume he wanted to invite me on a date, even though it was already 7:38pm –short notice. "Well… no but… I well... ugh, whatever. I'm coming. Kenzie?"

"Hell yes! Where are we going?" She was grinning like mad.

He drummed his fingers on my vanity, "I was thinking of hitting a more popular wizarding club tonight."

"Cool!" She screeched. She sounded like a 14 yr old.

"Sure." He wasn't looking at Kenzie when he said this though. Instead he was looking directly at me. Talk about feeling insecure.

Knowing Mackenzie she was probably off in a dream world like I usually would be. I kind of grinned at the situation. Never would I have ever dreamed that this would be my summer. Quickly I grabbed my wand from my bedside table and cast a beauty and a change of clothes charm.

I hoped off of my bed and patted down my short, white, pleaded skirt. I was wearing a long red brand name tee and a cropped white jacket. My hair was straightened while my make up was kept to a minimum. I glanced at Kenzie who was staring at me wide-eyed. I grinned.

"Ginny!" She exclaimed. "You'd never wear that clubbing."

I gave her a knowing look. "Well of course not, I go clubbing with you, Luna, and Colin, there's no need. Tonight we are going with Vogue's A-list. There's no way I'm going casual."

Alex gave me a smug smile while Kenzie just shook her head, disbelieved. "This is not the Ginny I know..."

I smiled, stuck my wand in my back pocket, and motioned towards my door. Mackenzie flicked her own wand, changing into a pair of jeans and sequined shirt and curly hair. Alex looked at the both of us and walked out into the hall. The two of us followed and headed on downstairs.

I looked at my mother who smiled wide and waved us into the living room. She put down the romantic novel she had been reading. "Whatever did you do now Ginevra?" Molly gave me a knowing smile. Right.

"Nothing Mum, I swear!" I smiled angelically. "Where'd Fleur go?"

"Out."

"Right. Well we're going out too. I'll try not to get drunk this time. By the way, this is Alex Berkin his parents own the café."

My mom well neared fainted as soon as I mentioned the name Berkin. She then continued to smile with a flushed face and disappeared into the kitchen. I shrugged and stood within the fireplace and flooed before Kenzie or Alex.

As soon as I had left, Mackenzie didn't hesitateto ask Alex a quick question she didn't want to ask in front of me.

"I read every headline/article of you here in Britain and America. I can hardly believe that you don't have quick flings with other girls."

He gave her a charming smile, "Ginny doesn't know that." He then proceeded to floo himself to the club where Ginny would be waiting.
