Anger

Draco was angry. How could she be the one to back down? He couldn't help but glare at her, shocked.

"I'm sorry, Draco. I'd rather not be disowned." Ginny sighed.

"You're worried about being disowned? Malfoy's are the ones for purity and loyalty. I know I will be disowned. You're the one that's a bloody Gryffindor." He hissed at her.

Ginny clenched her jaw. What Draco was asking was ridiculous.

"So what, Draco? Trying to jump on to the Gryffindor bandwagon? Is that it? Want me to knit you a scarf?"

They had been out a few times, lunch here and there. But it wasn't anything more than friendly dates with a bit of flirting. They were standing in an alley of Hogsmeade just after eating lunch. He had asked her to go out on an official dinner date with him. She had refused without a second thought.

Draco couldn't understand why this was so difficult for her. Had she no idea what he was willing to go through for her.

"You're a Weasley. You're family is supposed to be all happy, welcoming and cheery about everything." Draco said this with a look of disgust, like he had tasted something bitter.

"And you're a Malfoy. You know our fathers may end up killing each other-"

"They won't."

"-and while that is happening, my brothers will rip you apart, limb-for-limb." She wasn't going to be deterred. But neither was the young Malfoy.

"Must you be so dramatic?" He took a step forward and brushed some of the red hair framing Ginny's face behind her ear.

"Must you be so pushy?" Ginny countered in a whisper. Draco narrowed her eyes, then ducked his head down to kiss her softly. She responded, her hands going up to his jaw almost automatically.

"We've got something good here." He whispered against her lips.

"Maybe. But it shouldn't be this hard." Ginny took a step away from Draco, pulling out her wand. "I'm not strong enough. I'm sorry."

With a slight pop, she apparated.

Angry and frustrated, he punched the wall. Damn witch.

Sighing, he took a step away from the wall, brushing down his robes. He was a Malfoy and a Malfoy always gets what he wants. Right now, he wanted Ginny.

He'd just have to find a way to convince her.
