Chapter Two: Book Burnings, Snogging and Half Hearted Apologies

By: Nettie

Day Two:

"Shut up Malfoy!"

"Make me Weasley. OW!"

"You deserved that."

"I did not, you filthy pilfering excuse for a witch."

"You did too, you slimy git with no brains."

Ginny glared at him, and stomped her foot angrily. "Stay away from me Malfoy," she said as he started forward.

"I don't want to come near your horrendous face Weasley."

Ginny had had enough, she grabbed the book she had been reading and chucked it at his head. It hit its' mark perfectly, and Draco was out cold. "Oops," she said giggling. "I REALLY didn't mean to do that Malfoy," she said in a very fake sincere voice. She giggled again and dragged him onto his bed.

Draco woke sometime later to see Ginny contentedly reading and eating orange pieces. He winced at the headache he had.

"You threw a book at me!"

"You were going to try to hurt me so I don't see why I shouldn't protect myself."

"I was NOT going to hurt you!"

"Oh really? And WHAT were you going to do then?"

"I HAVE NO IDEA OKAY?" He grabbed her by the waist.

Ginny slapped him hard. "Do that again Malfoy and you won't be able to walk for a year." She grabbed the door and began to tug at it. Finally she gave up, but kept her distance from Draco. More than ever she just wanted to get away from him. He scared and interested her at the same time. Something in those weird eyes of his just freaked her out, and made her feel helpless.

When they were both in bed that night she lay there, thinking, she felt trapped, like she would never be let out. "I want out," she said softly. "I want out." She began to cry, silently at first, then loud enough for Draco to hear.

What the hell? Weasley's crying? Well ,Well, Well, the girl who's tough as nails turns out to still be a frightened little girl.

He hesitantly got up and sat next to her. "What's the matter?"

"Go away Malfoy, don't want anyone insulting me right now," she snapped.

"God, Okay." He went back to his bed, and her breathing quieted. "I wasn't going to insult you anyway." he whispered into the darkness.

Ginny hid a smile, there must be more to Draco Malfoy than she thought.

Day Three:

"DRACO MALFOY I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!." Ginny screamed. Draco had just burned her books up with his wand.

"Shut up Weasley."

"YOU JUST BURNED ALL MY BOOKS UP AND YOU TELL ME TO SHUT UP?? YOU BASTARD."

She lunged at him. but he was ready, he flipped her over on the bed, his body pinning her to it. Ginny bucked under him, but he wouldn't move.

"I just told you to shut up Weasley, I don't like not being listened to. I am going to have to make you obey me aren't I? You'll be a project, you're quite a handful. But I will tell you this, you will obey me, or you will die."

She glared at him. 'Oh Mr. I'm a big Death Eater, I'm really just gonna submit to your every will because YOU said so."

He slapped her. "Never, ever call me a Death Eater again Weasley."

"And why not? Don't like the truth thrown in your face?"

He looked at her furiously, then pulled up the sleeve of his robe, showing her his wrist. There was no Dark Mark upon it. "See Weasley? I am NOT a Death Eater, or a Supporter of Voldemort. Check your facts before you make assumptions."

She looked up at him looking defiantly beautiful. Draco felt a odd sensation in the bottom of his stomach. He wanted to cover her with kisses, to tangle his hands in that wonderful hair of hers. She suddenly wrapped her legs around him and flipped him over, so she was straddling him.

"Why I never knew you cared Weasley," he said, trying to hide his feelings.

"Malfoy, I want you to listen to me because I'm only going to say this once. I'm sorry for saying that you were a Death Eater okay?"

Draco didn't laugh at her, or even drawl something insulting, he did something that shocked Ginny so much that she was completely speechless. He kissed her.
