"What exactly is this and?"

"This is called an ice rink, Draco. We skate here. Really, I would have thought you knew about it listening to dad's muggle stories and everything."

"And why are we doing it?"

"Because it's fun. Now don't be a stuck-up git and come on."

And they went in, and skated for an hour with Ginny moving around in flawless motion and Draco refusing to leave her hand.

"No Draco, not like this. Maintain your balance."

"Gin, oh merlin, I'm going fall in these things."

"There, you are doing well, now go on, and leave my hand Draco."

And an hour later, they finally took a break, with Ginny smiling and Draco scowling.

They made a really good pair that way.

"That was so much fun."

"I really don't know what fun do you find in trying to walk around on wheels. I mean, we do have feet."

"Yes right. Because for the first time in ages you surprisingly took a day off from your work and even then I cannot make a plan to celebrate your holiday. I'm actually thinking of leaving you right here."

Draco's head snapped up at this. Leaving as in?

As he prepared to ask her, he found her too close, looming menacingly over his seemingly bewildered form.

"Ginny?"

"Malfoy. Listen to me. This long in our relationship, you better learn how to have fun properly, and burn your supposedly elite mannerisms because I swear if you don't, I'll obliviate you."

Draco was extremely happy to see her back to her normal self.

He suddenly pulled her closer and bent down to whisper in her hair.

"Ginny. I promise I would honestly try to adopt your definition of fun, though I would like to point out that you can't really call me Malfoy now as you hold the same name. And, would continue to do so till my last breath."

Ginny gasped as she realized the leaving comment really got to him. She shook her head at his insecurities and leaned in to kiss him.

So maybe they got ushered out for public display of affection, but it was every bit worth it.
