Three months passed by since the night that I saw Draco in the restaurant. Since then I decided to make the best of my relationship with Harry. Maybe it's because I'm a big fool and I don't want to be alone anymore. Either way, Harry is a great guy and I really love him. Maybe I'm just not so in love with him as I hoped.

When he wasn't working, Harry came to my house regularly, or I would go spend the night at his apartment. His place was clean and small, with no bedroom, only his bed as a couch in the middle of his living room. I kind of liked that, because it was a comfortable bachelor pad. Aside from some few dates, we didn't really went out, mostly because I was always afraid of running into one of my brothers. Charlie, Bill and Percy live in London as well, so encounters aren't rare.

Since our relationship was blooming and he insisted I was keeping him hidden from my family, I decided to invite Harry to my work's party. It was a goodbye party for my boss, Cho – she was going to work for BBC. I hadn't had much time to think about the future of my job because she kept me working in this thing for nearly two weeks, and when the day came I felt relieved that the interns were responsible for making it come to live. That way I could have some fun with Harry.

Harry and I got to the party a bit late, so everyone was already there when we entered the decorated cafeteria. Between compliments, Harry whispered to me "Your boss is kinda narcissist". He was obviously talking about the gigantic cake she ordered, covered with her face.

"That cake his nothing" I whispered back "She wanted her face everywhere. I toned it down a little"

He smiled and took my hand, looking all kinds of dreamy in his tux. Really, this guy is just gorgeous and I was feeling proud for having him by my side. God knows I couldn't do the same if he was Draco.

I felt like I looked pretty good myself. I was wearing a beautiful blue blouse, sleeveless, that showed a little more cleavage than usual, with ruffles on the collar, a black pencil skirt, dark stockings and huge D&G pumps. I wore my red hair in a very chic braided up-do. I even painted my nails black, something I rarely do.

The whole place was decorated with Cho's favorite colors: dark purple and black, and the place was in half darkness, like if it was a really cool bar with low illumination. An intern had gotten some new DJ to play lounge music, creating a intimate environment. I just wished this party was a success so Cho would give me a letter of recommendation for my next job.

We went to the open bar and asked for drinks. While waiting, I felt someone touch my shoulder and a high pitched voice call my name. I turned around and there she was, the woman of the hour. Cho Chang smiled widely at me, and didn't wait for a moment to start talking while pushing me away from Harry.

"The party is just amazing! You really nailed it" she almost screamed, full of selfish happiness. I smiled, trying not to look like I was forcing it, because I totally was "By the way, I told Richard you would make a wonderful replacement for Mini, you know, the girl that is going to replace me, and he said he would think about it. You're welcome" she said, looking around and waving at everyone, despite the fact that she was talking to me.

"Cho, that's really great, thank you so much-" I fell silent when a blond guy approached us and spoke to her, not even looking at me.

Cho started to introduce him "Oh, Ginevra, this is-"

"Draco" the name just slipped from my lips, without even thinking about it.

"You two have already met?" Draco was silent, his hand in Cho's shoulder and looking straight at me. She gave me a weird look, and I got it. He was her escort. He was sleeping with my boss.

"We went to the same high school" I quickly said, hoping she wasn't thinking I was one of his clients.

"Oh" she seemed relieved after hearing my explanation.

Harry came to give me my drink and didn't even look surprised when he saw Draco there. I think is a part of his James Bond training or something like that.

"Malfoy" he said, offering his right hand to Draco.

Draco took it, and said coldly "Potter"

"I guess you are Cho Chang" Harry turned to her as quickly as he possibly could, shaking her hand as well "I'm Harry Potter, Ginny's boyfriend. I heard a lot about you"

When Harry referred to himself as my boyfriend, Draco eyes suddenly became dark. He just stood there, looking at me, while Harry and Cho talked. I felt the whole room slow down while we looked into each other's eyes. I don't know why I was feeling embarrassed about this situation, but it made me be the first to look away.

I excused myself and walked to the ladies room. I got in and closed myself in a stall, trying not to hyperventilate. I couldn't believe he was sleeping with my boss. Probably since before we met again. He knew I worked for her and never told me. He knew there was a big chance of seeing me here, and he still came. He still looked at me with those big cold grey eyes like I was just another person in the room, and that killed me.

I refreshed myself and left the bathroom, full of courage. But right when I crossed the door, someone grabbed my arm. I looked and saw Draco looking at me.

"I need to talk to you" he said "Please"

"Follow me" I said, starting to walk to Cho's old office.

I opened the door with my key, and we got into the empty office. It used to be full of Cho's things, but the only thing she left was her desk and an old chair. We could see the London's lights trough the enormous window, and they illuminated the office. For that fact I didn't turned on the light.

I closed the door and turned to face Draco, who was looking at the view.

"Why are you with that guy?" he asked, not even looking at me "From all people, it really had to be Potter?"

"I don't think you are in the position of asking for explanations" I said "You haven't talked to me in almost four months, so what makes you think you can come here and think you have the right of criticizing my choices? I fucked up, but you did it harder"

I was so mad at him, I couldn't even put it into words. I felt my face burning. He looked at me and I thought I saw guilt in his eyes. Or maybe my own eyes were playing tricks on me.

"I'm sorry" he whispered.

"You don't get to be sorry" I was almost yelling, and hoping no one was on the corridor listening to this "You left me, Draco. I felt terrible about what happened and you left me and never called me back, and I'm tired of you always wanting everything to be in your own way"

"What do you mean by that?" he asked.

"I mean" I started, feeling the rush of adrenaline in my veins, my face still hot and my eyes glowing "that you always controlled everything! You were always the big player and got dozens of girls, and for years you thought I wanted to sit and hear you talk about them. And it's the same right now! You talk with me about you clients the same way you talked about your old girlfriends. And still today you don't even think that at some point I would have wanted to be one of the girls you took out on a date and kissed in the front porch-"

Draco stepped in front of me and put his hand on my mouth to shut me up. He didn't smile, just looked deep inside my eyes and answered me.

"I didn't took you out on a date and kissed you in the front porch because I love you" he took his hand away from my mouth and touched my arm "Relationships complicate things. I love you way too much to risk losing you like that"

For a moment I looked at him, thinking if that was what I was hoping to heart. It wasn't. While getting away from his hands, I said "You already lost me, Draco"

I left the office and got into the cafeteria again. I found Harry still chatting with Cho.

"Ginny, what took you so long?" he asked, taking my hand into his.

"Nothing special, just found a colleague that needed my help" I lied, and felt horrible about it. He smiled at me, believing in every word I said.

"I'm gonna go find Draco, if you don't mind. Bye honeys!" Cho waved at us and left.

"So Malfoy is dating your boss?" Harry said, taking a sip of his Martini.

"I guess" I said, trying not to look uncomfortable with the subject "But she's not my boss anymore. And I really don't care about whom she dates"

Except that I did.
