ICE AND FIRE
Rhapsody - Hello again, if you wanna know how I work, here it is. I upload three chapters at first and if I don't get a single review within a week, I stop the story. If you don't like all my little footnotes during the story, tell me. But more people have told me they like them rather than not. Next chappie!
"Departures"
Hogwarts students were all packed in the station and the Hogwarts Express was going to take them to platform 9 ¾ so their parents could pick them up. Ginny was there to see off Harry, Hermione, Ron, Seamus and Parvati.
Lavender, Dean and herself were staying the extra week, as classes were just revision over what they'd done that year and were easy, not to mention the big party coming up.
Ginny helped them heave their things in the storage compartment and talked for awhile.
"Send me letters, the lot of you, yeah?" Ginny said.
"Of course" Hermione smiled. The others nodded.
The whistle blew and Lavender, Dean and Ginny hugged everyone good-bye. They quickly left and the train departed. They all watched it until it was a dot of scarlet in the distance.
"I'm going to miss them for those three months" Lavender admitted.
"Yeah" Dean said absentmindedly.
"Wonder who else is back.." Ginny trailed off.
She looked around and spotted a silver-blonde head she didn't want to see, as well as another strawberry-blonde curly head she was also dreading to see. Yup. Malfoy and Pansy were there. Ginny turned away and told Lavender and Dean this.
"Joy" Lavender rolled her eyes. "Don't we just feel special?"
"Being in the presence of me, yes you should" Malfoy said with a trademark smirk.
"No-one cares. Get lost, prat" Ginny snapped.
"Weasel, couldn't your parents afford to feed you an extra week?" He shot back.
Ginny's cheeks burned.
"Sod off" Dean said, knowing how touchy she was about the money topic.
"Ohh, defensive huh? Got a new boyfriend? Wasn't Micheal Corner good enough? Oh yes. You DID go out with Thomas didn't you? My, you're getting around. Quite the little slut now? You've grown up" Malfoy sneered.
Ginny slapped him. Hard. Her eyes had fire in them and she was angry. Malfoy looked down at her from his 6"1 height to her tiny 5"4 frame. He gave her an icy glare. They just stood there, shooting daggers to each other, until Dean and Lavender dragged her away.
"Ok, WHAT was that about?" Lavender asked.
"I don't know. He makes me so mad" Ginny exploded.
"Whoa, calm down. He's a loser. Everyone knows that Gin. Let it go" Dean shrugged.
"Whatever. I'm getting a butterbeer" Ginny muttered.
She went down to the kitchens. And bumped into Malfoy on the way down. Ginny quickly picked herself up and stormed off, holding a hand over her shoulder and shouting
"Don't talk to me!" Before he could get a word out.
Ginny tickled the pear and the painting swung open. She stepped inside. House elves rushed up, eager to serve her. Ginny asked them for two butterbeers, hid them in her robes and got out of the kitchens and up to her dorm as quickly as she could.
There was only one other girl in her dorm who wasn't leaving, Chelsea Connolly but luckily, Chelsea wasn't in the rrom at the time.
Ginny drank her butterbeers, while reading a book she'd been wanting to get through. She soon felt sick and fell asleep.
&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&
Malfoy was lurking in the shadows of the dungeon, while Ginny was on the floor, crying before him.
"Give me the vial!" He yelled at her.
"I don't have it! Honest to God!" She sobbed.
"You are worthless. Filth, absolutely pathetic" Malfoy spat.
"I'm not! Let me go, I don't want to be here!" Ginny cried.
He hit her jaw. She clutched her face where it was hit and fresh tears were rolling down her cheeks. Ginny felt warm blood run from the wound.
"Get up!" Malfoy yelled.
She tried but her legs just gave way and she tumbled to the floor again.
"I SAID GET UP WEASEL!" He bellowed.
"I-I can't!" Ginny said in between sobs.
Malfoy dug a knife from in his robes and raised it above his head. He brought it down swiftly and it made contact with the skin of her chest.
&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&
"AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Ginny screamed.
She shot up. It was 2 am and she was surrounded by her blankets and sheets, drenched with cold sweat. Ginny was panting, remembering the nightmare. Chelsea was still asleep by some miracle.Ginny lay back down, closing her tired eyes and drifting off into a dreamless sleep.
^$^$^$^$^$^$^$^$^$^
Ginny had no recollection of the dream that morning, she just carried on with her normal morning routine before heading down to the Great Hall for breakfast. She spent most of her time with Dean and Lavender, but caught up with her fellow fifth-years a lot.
"Calm down everyone please!" Professor McGonagall said.
Since there were only about a quarter of the students, they just used the Ravenclaw table. Everyone looked at her.
"It is the last Hogsmeade weekend for the year and if you are all coming, I suggest you get ready soon, as we will leave at 10 o'clock sharp" Professor McGonagall said before sitting back down.
"So, are we gonna go?" Lavender asked.
"Yeah, I need to pick up some more sweets before I head home" Ginny said. Dean nodded.
After eating, she ran up to her dorm and gave herself a once-over. When Ginny was satisfied with herself, she went back downstairs to meet Lavender and Dean.
"You ready?" Dean asked.
"Yeah" She replied.
They shared a carriage to Hogsmeade.
"Are you going to the party, Gin?" Lavender asked.
"Definetly. Liz told me about it. Are you going?" Ginny asked the two of them.
"Mmm" Dean said. He was reading the Daily Prophet.
"Yeah! It's fourth-years up, nobody wants snotty little toerags running about" Lavender wore a disgusted look just at the thought. She hated little kids.
"Oh come on. Kids are cute. But you're right, we don't want kids at the party" Ginny agreed.
"I am SO getting you ready for the event!" Lavender clasped her hands together and squealed.
Ginny felt a bit faint. She'd been there the time Lavender and Parvati decided to give Hermione a make-over.
"Uh...ok, um, great" She said.
"Excellent. I have make-up, clothes, hair care, the works! we can go crazy!" Lavender said, obviously excited.
"Lav? The party is in five days, we have a little waiting to do" Ginny raised an eyebrow.
"So? You can never be too ready" She answered seriously.
Ginny just smiled. Parvati and Lavender loved that sort of thing, they were always getting fashion and beauty magazines, doing themselves up, going on dates. You name it, they've done it. As long as it's something to do with fashion, make-up etc.
"Oh, we're here!" Dean looked up from his paper and they all hopped out of the carriages.
"Where to first?" He asked.
"Three Broomsticks, I need a butterbeer" Lavender said.
The three of them quickly strode to the pub and found a table. A young wizard came to take their order.
"Three butterbeers please" Ginny told him.
"Ok, just a sec" He said. A moment later he had three bottles in his hand and gave them over.
"Mmm, he was gorgeous" Lavender said, looking over at the wizard.
"You're hopeless, Lav" Dean was shaking his head.
"I know, ohhh, Justin Mandosa, you know, seventh-year? He's totally lush too. I heard he's going to the party Thursday" She licked her lips.
"He IS hot, eh?" Ginny smiled.
"Oh help me God" Dean vanished behind his paper again.
"Malfoy will be at the party too" Lavender grinned.
"Um...Lav? Reality check, ew?" Ginny looked at her as if she had a wand through her head.
"He's a dick head, yes, but he's sexy as hell" Lavender winked at her.
"Are you kidding? He's a man-slut!" Ginny shouted.
Everyone went silent and looked at Ginny. Her cheeks went pink and she sunk down into a chair. Lavender giggled.
"Oh well. Not that it matters anyway. I'll just flirt with Justin the whole night, see if I can get any from him!" She said.
"You ARE a little tramp aren't you?" Ginny joked.
"The one and only" Lavender stuck a pose.
"Oh yummy, see THAT guy over there? Totally gorgeous!" Ginny pointed to a guy four tables from them.
"He is, isn't he? Cute ass" She eyed him
"Everyon finished? Let's go!" Dean got up, paid and urged the girls out.
"Oh Dean, you're such a spoilsport" Lavender whined.
"Yeah, we were having a good perve!" Ginny added.
Suddenly, the guy four tables across looked at them as he walked past. The two girls gave him sexy smiles and seductive little waves. He grinned back but had to keep walking. Dean rolled his eyes. They were pissing and moaning on second and the next they're all smiles, being all flirty.
"Today would be nice" He said sarcastically.
"Tomorrow would be better" Lavender shot back.
"Let's just go? There's sweets with our names on them at Honeydukes!" Ginny grinned.
