Here you go and I hope you enjoy!

Ginny woke up the next morning with the realization that she needed to try and get her family to understand how she felt about Draco. She had no idea how to go about any of this, all she knew was somehow she would need to get them to see past Draco's past and see what he had become. Ginny lay there in Draco's bed; her mind racing with ways to make her dreams a reality. The biggest problem would be getting Harry to understand. Hermione would be easy because she already knew how Ginny felt and would try to accept that.

As Ginny lay there thinking parts of a dream she had the previous night came back to her. All she remembered was yelling, crying, and disappointment. Ginny pushed the memory to the back of her mind and slid out of bed. She slid on Draco's black silk robe that was lying on the bed and went to the kitchen for breakfast.

Stopping in the doorway Ginny saw Draco sitting at the table with a cup of coffee in his hands, staring out the window in thought watching the sunrise and wearing nothing but boxers. The sight sent shivers down Ginny's spine. She ignored the feeling because she knew what was on his mind, the same thing that had caused her a restless night of sleep: her family.

Breaking out of her reverie she walked up behind him wrapping her arms around his neck and whispering in his ear, for the first time, "I love you Draco."

He turned and pulled her onto his lap and replied, "I love you too, Gin," while kissing her hair.

On Draco's lap Ginny snuggled up to his chest and laid her head on his shoulder while he tightened his arms around her and asked, "Couldn't sleep?"

"Nope."

"Same. I couldn't stop thinking about what we're going to do."

"Me either, but I know I need to talk to Hermione first and see what she has to say. I also know before we're going to get anywhere with my family I have to talk to Harry."

Draco sighed and said, "I was hoping you wouldn't say that, but I know it's true. Before I can get anywhere with you family I have to talk to Harry."

"We have to talk to Harry."

"I have to solve my differences with him."

"Yes, but I also have to fix everything."

"So, Harry first," Draco said, already dreading the encounter.

"Yes, after I talk to Hermione," Ginny said sliding off Draco's lap.

"Now?" Draco asked catching Ginny's arm.

"The sooner the better," Draco nodded and released her arm.

After breakfast and a shower Ginny went back to the kitchen where Draco still sat. She leaned down, gave him a kiss and said, "I'm going to be at Hermione's. When I'm done I'll come back and explain."

"You sure you don't want me to come."

"You don't need to. It will make it easier if it was just me," Draco nodded in response and then watched her leave.

Once again Ginny found herself knocking on the blue door of the Shell Cottage look-a-like. After knocking Ginny stood back and wait while Hermione came to the door.

Inside they sat down on a floral print couch and Ginny began, "Hermione, I need your advice.'

"On what?" Hermione asked looking concerned.

"Draco and my family."

"What?"

"Well…" Ginny launched into an explanation of the two previous days. She told Hermione about the misunderstanding with Serena, the conversation in the meadow, and the side of Draco she had never seen before.

"He wants to be on good terms with your family," Hermione said, shocked.

"Yes and I understand where he's coming from, but reconciling him and my family is a near to impossible task. So, I need your help."

"I don't know what to say, Gin. That's going to be difficult."

"I know, but I also know I will have to face Harry first."

"Yes, you will, but you really think he's going to be able to overlook the past."

"I hope he can, because if I can't get it through to him that this is what I want and need, I'll never be able to get though to my family."

"Exactly."

"What do you think I need to do?"

"Your best bet will to be honest with him, tell him everything and make him see it your way."

"Should I bring Draco?"

"Is he willing to go?"

"Yes."

"Not the first time, just you and Harry first and then ease him into talking to Draco."

"Okay, I'll try that. Thanks!"

"No problem. If you need anything else let me know. Good luck and I'll try and get Ron to ease up."

"Okay, great. I guess I should go attempt to make Harry see it my way."

"Yeah, good luck."

"Thanks, I'm going to need it," Ginny said walking out the door and headed to Malfoy Manor to explain to Draco.

Ginny found Draco sitting in the library with a book in hand, but obviously something was bothering him. Ginny went over to him, took the book and set it on a table and then slid onto his lap. He pulled her in, but still didn't say a word.

Ginny searched his expressionless gray eyes and running a hand through platinum blonde hair and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, just thinking," he said breaking eye contact.

Ginny took his face in her hands and turned his eyes back to hers and once again asked, "Draco, what's wrong?"

Giving in he said, "What if your family doesn't accept me?"

"They will."

"What if they don't Gin? What if they can't see past my past mistakes and my family? What if I haven't changed? What if they're right and I can never be right for you? What if I am like my father? What if…"

"You are not your father Draco!" Ginny interrupted. "You are not that guy and you never have been!"

"What if you're wrong?"

"I am not! I know you! I know who you are and trust me you are not that person!"

"I guess…"

"Draco," Ginny said softly never breaking eye contact, "Just trust me. I will make them accept you. No matter what it takes, I won't abandon you. I never will. I love you and that's all that matters."

Draco sat in silence taking in everything she just said and looking back into shining brown eyes he said, "I love you too."

"And that's all that matters."

"Exactly, so what happened?" Draco said returning to his usual self.

Ginny explained everything that happened at Hermione's and then said, "I need to go to Harry's alone and talk to him, tell him everything. Once we're on the same page we will deal with his hate for you, but I have to do this much on my own."

"I understand. When are you going?"

"Now," Ginny said standing up and heading towards the door.

"Be careful and good luck," Draco said following Ginny out of the library.
