Ginny walked up the to room of requirement to meet Draco for their date. When she turned the corner Lavender was waiting outside of a door that was already formed.
"Lav? What are you doing here?" Ginny asked.
"Both Theo and Draco wanted to use the room so there in there figuring things out." Lavender explained. Just as Lavender did the door open and both of the boys walked out with smiles on their faces.
"So? What the verdict?" Ginny asked.
"We're idiots. The answer was so simple." Theo said and jokingly bumped his head with the heel of his hand.
"We both can use the room. We just need to tell the room that we need two separate rooms and it made up two equally sized rooms." Draco explained.
"So shall we?" Theo asked and reached out for Lavender's hand.
"Have fun you two." Lavender smiled as she followed Theo into the room. Draco smiled at Ginny and walked over to her.
"You look beautiful." He whispered as he kissed her.
"I just came from class and I'm wearing my school uniform. How do I look beautiful?" Ginny smiled.
"Gin, it doesn't matter what you wear, you always look beautiful." Draco whispered into her ear.
"Well then, thank you." Ginny smiled, she could feel her cheeks getting a little warm. Draco slipped his hand into Ginny's and guided her into the room. They entered a corridor with two huge doors. One had Theo spelled out on the door in silver script. The other had Draco spelled in the same silver script.
"So I have no idea why I didn't think about doing this while you were tutoring me. It's ingenious." Draco smiled as he walked over to his door and opened it. Ginny walked in looking confused until she saw the room. It was an exact replica of Draco's room even with a low burning fire in the fireplace. The only thing that was out of place was a strange black wardrobe in the back.
"What's that?" Ginny asked and pointed to the wardrobe as she tossed her robe onto the replica of Draco's desk.
"I have no idea I tried to get rid of it but the room won't allow me to. I guess it's the only way for the person to know that this isn't the real thing." Draco shrugged.
"Wait, Drake what is this?" Ginny asked as she picked up a jewelry box.
"Oh it's just a little gift for someone." Draco shrugged and smiled.
"You got me something?" Ginny asked.
"Yes, but you can't open it until later." Draco instructed.
"What? Why not?" Ginny laughed.
"Because I want it to be a surprise." Draco smiled.
"Fine." Ginny rolled her eyes and put the jewelry box back on the desk.
"Do you like it? The room I mean." Draco asked as they walked over to the couch in front of the fire and two place settings were waiting for them. Ginny smiled back at Draco and kissed him lightly.
"I love it." She whispered and kissed Draco again. Draco wrapped his arms around Ginny's waist and brought her into a deeper kiss. He lightly licked Ginny's bottom lip, just begging for entrance. Ginny complied and gave up very easily and allowed Draco to take control. Draco's hand slowly made it's way under Ginny's shirt and his fingers lightly traced a line up and down her spine. Ginny tried with all of her might not to moan, but without warning she let one slip out. Draco smiled within their kiss. Ginny wrapped her hands around Draco's neck and pressed her body up against Draco, trying to cause the same reaction that he had caused with her. Draco grabbed Ginny's waist harder and let out a deep moan and ripped his lips away from her and placed them by her ear.
"Miss Weasley I invited you here for dinner. Shouldn't we wait to have dessert later?" Draco asked in a husky voice.
"By the bulge in your pants and the fact that your hands are all over me. I think you want me to say no." Ginny whispered.
"I would never want to make you do something that you wouldn't want to." Draco whispered as he took in a deep breath of Ginny's scent.
"Believe me, your not." Ginny whispered and then bit Draco's earlobe and pushed him down on the couch.
"So you didn't get enough in the library?" Draco asked as he watched Ginny straddle him.
"The make-out session? It only got me warmed up." Ginny winked as she sunk lower into Draco's lap. "Now lets get you out of that shirt." Ginny smiled as she started to unbutton Draco's black button up.
"I was just about to say the same thing to you." Draco said in a husky voice and started to unbutton Ginny's white dress shirt. They both finished at the same time and looked into each other's eyes. Draco's eyes wondering down Ginny's now exposed torso and ran his hand from her collarbone down to her belly button. Draco looked back up to Ginny's eyes and ran his hand through Ginny's hair. In one swift motion Draco pulled Ginny down to his lips as he sat up and they met in the middle. At contact Ginny's hands started to roam all over Draco's bare chest and fought to rip his shirt off. Draco threw his shirt to the floor. He kissed down Ginny's neck and lifted her slightly so he could kiss between her breasts.
"Draco." Ginny closed her eyes and moaned. Ginny suddenly heard a creek from the corner of the room. "Drake." Ginny whispered.
"Yeah baby." Draco almost moaned.
"Did you hear that?" she asked.
"Hear what?" Draco smiled against her skin and continued to kiss her neck.
"Drake stop for a minute." Ginny whispered.
"What's wrong?" Draco smiled and kissed her lips lightly.
"I heard something." Ginny explained.
"Baby it was probably just Theo and Lavender." Draco explained and rubbed her cheek.
"Ok." Ginny said a little uneasy and smiled. She then leaned down and kissed Draco deeply. Draco sat up again and pressed Ginny's body even closer to his and rubbed her upper thigh.
"Ah hemmm." Someone fake cough. Ginny looked straight up and screamed bloody murder. She then jumped up and covered her chest with her shirt. Draco looked over his shoulder and stand there was the one and only Lucius Malfoy with Bellatrix Lestrange.
"Father!" Draco yelled as he jumped up too. "What are you doing here?" He asked.
"Sorry for breaking this up son. I know how you feel about your extracurricular activities." Lucius drawled.
"Why does she look familiar?" Bellatrix high pitch voice cracked. The room was very dim and with the glow of the fire Ginny's hair could have been red from the glow of the fire.
"Leave her out of it." Draco said protectively. "I know why you're here." He added.
"Well I'm glad that you do. But we can't have her going to tell anyone." Bellatrix smiled wickedly.
"No! She won't tell anyone." Draco said and placed his arm in front of Ginny protectively.
"You're right Bella she does look very familiar. Then again how could I forget a figure like that?" Lucius said slyly.
"Leave her alone father." Draco hissed and started to guide Ginny to the door.
"Draco. No." Ginny whispered as she button a few of her shirt buttons.
"Don't say anything." Draco hissed and grabbed her arm gently.
"Please don't go." Ginny begged.
"Gin stop talking." Draco hissed and tighten his grip.
"Draco." Lucius said calmly.
"Fuck." Draco hissed and turned back toward his father.
"Did you just call her Gin?" Lucius asked.
"No." Draco lied.
"Don't lie to me son." Lucius grinned. The angles of Lucius face and the shadows that were cast by the firelight made Lucius look even more evil than usual. "Who is she?" Lucius asked.
"She's no one father. Now let her go." Draco said calmly and reached for the jewelry box. "Take back your gift and leave me alone." Draco snapped at Ginny and thrust the jewelry box. "Just forget about me." Draco hissed. Ginny could see in his eyes that he was hurting and he didn't mean any of what he was saying. Ginny's eye began to swell but she held back her tears and took the jewelry box and walked towards the door.
"Hold it!" Lucius yelled. "Come back here." He added.
"Let her go Father." Draco hissed. Lucius raised his hand and the fire blazed up. "No!" Draco yelled.
"A Weasley!" Bellatrix yelled and raised her wand.
"Leave her alone!" Draco yelled and raised his own wand. Ginny didn't even know where he had hid his.
"What is the meaning of this Draco?" Lucius asked calmly.
"It's nothing. Just a nice prank on her brother. To be able to say I screw his sister." Draco lied.
"You know Draco, you are usually a much better liar than that." Lucius said shaking his head. "Bella lower your wand please." He said. Bellatrix looked at Lucius and then back at Ginny and slowly lower her wand. "I have to admit Miss Weasley you are looking much better than the last time that I saw you. Much better." Lucius said with a smile.
"That's because the last time you saw me you tried to kill me." Ginny hissed.
"Ginny." Draco snapped and shook his head.
"She's a feisty one isn't she?" Lucius smiled again. "I like it." He added. "Come here." He demanded.
"Just let her go Father." Draco growled.
"Shut-up Draco." Lucius snapped. "Get over here." He demanded. Ginny took a step toward Lucius and Draco grabbed her arm and pulled her back behind him.
"Hmmm interesting." Bellatrix whispered. "I think that he might need a little push." She added and looked over at Lucius. Lucius nodded at Bellatrix who had a smiled form ear to ear. Bellatrix raised her wand and suddenly Draco and Ginny were encircled by black smoke. Draco protectively pulled Ginny to his side and was in battle stance and so was Ginny. The black smoke disappeared and they were circled by masked Death-Eaters with their wands drawn.
"Now, come here." Lucius demanded. Draco looked around the room and reluctantly guided Ginny over towards Lucius but stay far away enough that he couldn't touch him or her. "Yes, she is quite a specimen." Lucius said out loud.
"She's not all that great. She's pretty scrawny if you ask me." Bellatrix piped up.
"Well I wasn't." Lucius snapped. "Yes, pureblood, beauty, smarts, and guts. Just from a bad family." Lucius said out loud.
"I rather be apart of a bad family than a greedy and loathsome one." Ginny snapped.
"Oooo. Do you hear what she just said about you Draco? Do you still want to protect her?" Lucius laughed.
"I can't get mad at her for speaking the truth. If I had a choice you know what mine would be." Draco said calmly.
"Well you don't." Bellatrix snapped. "Lucius." Bellatrix whispered as she looked at Draco and Ginny.
"What is it Bell?" Lucius drawled.
"Look." Bellatrix nodded down towards Draco and Ginny's hands. Without even noticing it, Draco had taken Ginny's hand into his.
"So is this why you haven't been answering the Dark Lord's calls?" Bellatrix asked as she pointed at their hands.
"What are you talking about? He hasn't been calling me." Draco's said and pulled their hands behind his leg and out of site, but the damage had already been done.
"Do you feel any pain now?" Bellatrix asked.
"No." Draco said plainly.
"Funny because he's calling us right now. He knows where we are however, therefore none of us have to go. You however should be feeling his call." Bellatrix explained.
"And of course he has been call for you Draco. He wanted to see if he could get you to come to him instead of me coming to get you." Lucius smirked and paused. Lucius looked at the couple again and started to twirl his wand between his fingers. "Draco. Do you know the only way that your mark won't burn?" Lucius asked.
"Only if your life is about to end or is in danger. The Dark Lord added the last one only recently realizing that if his minions are in pain then how could they fight with all of their might?" Draco said quickly.
"Very good. Now I know that I taught you that that was the only way, however there is another way." Lucius explained.
"What are you talking about?" Draco asked.
"Love." Bellatrix said. "Only if the person you love is in your presence or touches you does the pain go away." She explained.
"Of course it's not just if you love them, but they need to love you back. So you can understand our confusion on why you don't feel any pain." Lucius explained.
"Unless Miss Weasley here is more than just a prank on her brother." Bellatrix hinted. Ginny's heart dropped to her stomach. There's no way. He can't love me. But you heard what Bellatrix just said. But why hasn't he told me? Maybe for the same reason why you haven't told him? Ginny thought to herself.
No way Aunt Bella must be just saying that to see how I react. This is a trick, how could Ginny love me, I'm a Malfoy. Her family would kill her. They already want to kill her because she's dating me. This has to be a trick. Draco fought with himself.
"I remember the day when I started to feel the pain even when your mother was in the room or even if she touched me. Even after all that I gave her." Lucius growled.
"Please Lucius don't try to play the victim. I know how you look at Aunt Bella and everyone knows what's going on between the two of you. I wished that you didn't flaunt it." Draco snapped.
"Lucius huh? It seems that I must have hit a cord with you for you to use my first name." Lucius smirked evilly.
"Are we done here? Can Ginny leave?" Draco hissed.
"Draco darling you can't expect us to let her go knowing what she knows." Bellatrix giggled sinisterly.
"Actually, I'll make a deal with you." Lucius piped up quickly. "I know that you really don't want to come with us and if you had a choice then you would stay. So I'll give you a choice. You can choose either A. We take you with us and Ginny goes free and unharmed. B. I'll take Miss Weasley with me and you can go free and unharmed. Or C. You both can come with us." Lucius smiled.
"A." Draco said plainly.
"Draco!" Ginny said through her teeth and turned Draco towards her. "Draco no. You can't just go with them." Ginny whispered.
"And what? You think that I'll let you go with him?" Draco whispered back. "This is the only way." Draco said.
"And to think MY nephew is in love with a Weasley." Bellatrix said in discuss.
"Shut-up Bellatrix." Draco snapped. "You're getting what you want." He added.
"Are you sure that this is what you want?" Lucius asked.
"Yes. Can she go now?" Draco asked.
"Of course." Lucius smiled.
"Lucius!" Bellatrix hissed.
"A deal is a deal Bella." Lucius said as he raised his hand. Draco looked between his Aunt and Father and then guided Ginny back to the door.
"Draco no, please don't do this." Ginny begged. "Just choose the third choice. Then I could go with you." Ginny added.
"Ginny do you think that they will just let us be together? They would rip us apart and do god knows what to you just to get information that you might not even know." Draco explained as they stopped at the door.
"Draco I don't want you go." Ginny started to tear-up.
"I know Ginny, but I rather I go than for anything bad happen to you." Draco explained and rubbed her cheek. Draco opened the door, Ginny took a step out but she could make herself take another step. "Open the box. But don't let my father see." Draco whispered. Ginny nodded and opened the little box carefully. Ginny's eyes almost fell out of her head. She looked up at Draco in shock. "Ginny I should have told you this once I figured it out." Draco paused. Ginny slowly took out Draco's grandmother's ring. "Ginny, I'm in love with you." Draco whispered and rubbed Ginny's cheek.
"Draco…" Ginny started to say.
"You don't have to say it back, I just wanted you to know." Draco interrupted.
"But I do Draco. I love you too." Ginny said with a wide smile.
"And I want you to have this ring and for you to remember that I will come back to you." Draco whispered into Ginny's ear.
"Of course I will wait for you." Ginny whispered. Draco couldn't help himself, he didn't care if his Aunt or Father saw, this could be the last time he saw the women that he loved. Draco pulled Ginny in and kissed her deeply. They both heard a sound of discuss come from Bellatrix's direction.
"As sweet as this moment is. It's now over." Bellatrix hissed and pulled Draco away from Ginny. "I'm getting bored and this is making me sick." She added. She looked back to Lucius and gave him a little cute look.
"Fine Bell, but not too much." Lucius said in a sigh of boredom. Bellatrix smiled and started to laugh.
"Bye, bye Miss Weasley." Bellatrix said with a wide smile. She grabbed a better hold onto Draco's arm and threw a spell at Ginny. Ginny's whole body flew back into the corridor and hit the wall hard.
"No!" Draco yelled. Ginny's slammed again the stonewall and she had the wind knocked out of her. She almost totally blacked out the only thing that she heard was Draco screaming and then everything faded to black.
