Harry Potter and the Death Eaters Son
By Trephinia Cealyn
Chapter 2 | Bjork
Ginny had turned on the muggle CD player. She placed a random CD into the round circle disk holder and pushed play. Then wearing her flannel pajamas since it was getting late she started to dance
"If you ever get close to a human and human behavior." The muggle singers voice was enchanting. It sent chills down Ginny's spine. She sang along and spun around in circles. Ginny danced about wildly. The furniture moving out of her way. One of the rugs didn't move fast enough and she tripped. Her hands flung up to protect her face and she let out a little cry of surprise. Then she felt strong hands catch her.
"Stupid rug." She heard the person mutter. She twisted in his grip. The voice sounded familiar. Standing she faced Draco Malfoy.
"Draco!" she flung her arms around him and stared into the eyes of someone standing behind him. Some one with black hair and black eyes. Ginny gasped. "Who are you?" Draco laughed.
"This is Landrak Black." He said grinning. Ginny walked suspiciously around Draco and held out her hand. Then as if someone turned on a light switch in her head she smiled.
"Ah yes, fathers expecting you… he was." The boy looked puzzled. "You were a little late in getting here so he went off with my mother to prepare some Ministry gathering. Left me specific instructions to show you to your rooms and to feed you, since they won't be home till late." She smiled at Draco. "I don't think he expected you, I kind of forgot to tell him." she walked into the kitchen the two boys followed her. "Let's see, what would you like for dinner?"
"Anything really. I'm famished." Draco sat in the nearest chair. Landrak leaned against the wall feeling very unwelcome.
"Sit." Ginny pointed Landrak to a chair. "You're in the way." Draco smiled. He watched Ginny as she flew around the kitchen preparing food. "Well I hope you like ham sandwiches and Butter Beer." The two boys eyed the food and almost attacked her as she set it down. Ginny cleaned up as the ate hurriedly. She shook her head smiling as Draco ate his fifth sandwich. "Done?" she picked up the plate and set it into the sink. "I'll show you to your rooms." The followed her up the stairs.
"Fred and George's room for me right?" Draco said stopping by the door. His hand on the doorknob.
Ginny looked at him apologetically. "No," a smile played on her lips. "You and Landrak are going to have to stay in Ron's room." She held back laughter. "Bill and Charlie are staying in the twin's room." Draco spluttered.
"I can't stay in Ron's room." He said firmly.
"Who said Ron wants you there?" Ginny looked behind Draco and saw her angry sibling standing next to an amused Harry.
"You heard what father said." Ginny smiled at Harry.
"I thought that only one death eater was staying in my room." He glared at Landrak. "Not two."
"Draco is not a Death Eater." Ginny replied indignantly.
"Could have fooled me." Ron muttered to Harry. Ginny pushed Draco and Landrak rather firmly towards Ron's rooms. She threw open the door and Ron let out a cry of protest. "Malfoy is not sleeping in my room!" Ginny smiled evilly and shut the door behind her.
"Then you're not either." She yelled. Ron threw himself against the door but it didn't budge. Ginny smiled at Draco. He shook his head fondly at her and opened the door.
"Truce." He said holding his hand out to Ron. Ron looked at it carefully but shook his hand. He went into the room and kicked Ginny out still mad at her. Swearing profusely she went down to her room to prepare for bed. Hermione would be there the next day but for now Ginny had the whole room to herself.
"Do I have to sleep on a cot?" Landrak and Draco asked at the same time.
"Yes." Ron said he has changed into his bright orange Chudley Cannon pajamas. Draco sniggered a little over that and admitted he didn't bring any sleeping things. "Here." Harry threw pajama bottoms at him but no one supplied a shirt. Draco sighed and laid down on the cot carefully. He didn't want to break it.
"Malfoy." Ron said coldly standing over him.
"What? I was just having a nice dream about Ginny and you ruined it." Draco smiled as Ron looked ready to murder him. Draco heard Landrak snicker.
"If you kill me in my sleep I'll haunt you forever."
"The thought hadn't even crossed my mind Weasley, in fact I was going to sneak down to see your sister." Ron clenched his fists and Harry laughed. Ron swore and went back to his bed.
"Touch her and I'll kill you."
"Have fun in Azkaban." Landrak and Harry laughed and then the room went silent. Draco waited until he could hear everyone snoring and then he opened the door cautiously and crept down the hall. Draco pushed open the door he supposed was Ginny's. He was reassured when he saw his picture on the desk. He turned for the bed and kissed Ginny softly on her forehead. She woke up saw Draco and pulled him onto the bed.
"What are you doing here?" she whispered into his ear. He ran his hand through her hair and pulled her close.
"I had to see you." He kissed her their bodies melting together. She pulled away from the kiss and fixed her eyes on the door. "What's wrong?" Her mouth opened, closed, opened, and then stayed closed. She buried her head in his shoulder and mumbled something incoherently while showing him her hand. He looked at puzzled, then gasped. "Where's the ring?" he felt his shirt get wet. "Ginny, why aren't you wearing the ring?" she put her arms around his waist, her nails digging into his back. "You haven't told them…"
"How could I?" she said harshly looking up. "How could I when most of my family despises your name?" she glared at him her brown eyes boring into his grey ones. "You saw how my brother acted earlier, and that, that, was only about sleeping arrangements." She looked down at her hand a few tears hitting the pillows. "I love you Draco." She hit him lightly. "But I love my family too." A few more tears slid down her face. He brushed them away.
"Okay, so you haven't told them." He said this slowly. "That doesn't explain why you aren't wearing the ring." Cupped her chin in his hand gently. "If you're not ready to marry me… or be engaged…"
"No!" she said almost shouting. "No… I'm ready." She said in a whisper. "But their not." Draco looked at her sadly.
"Ginny I'm not marrying your family. I'm marrying you." He said this firmly, his eyes searched hers looking for something. "You love me, right?"
"Draco how could you ask that!" she said offended.
"Where's the ring?" she pointed to her desk. He got up and searched the drawers. Finding the box he pocketed it. "I'll propose again. In front of your family, the whole Wizarding World if I have to." He went back over to her and kissed her softly on her lips.
"I just realized you aren't wearing a shirt." Draco smiled and patted her on the head fondly. "I'm sorry."
"Don't be." Their eyes locked. "It's not your fault your family's biased." She laughed and he left.
"Bloody 'ell." She said under her breath.
"For the love of all that I hate including Weasley and that little git of a mudblood." Draco muttered walking back to Ron's room. "He can take his fucking hypocrisy and stick it up his–" he opened the door to Ron's room. "- ass." He kicked a pillow and it flew directly for Landrak's head.
"Bloody Basilisks!" the boy yelled jumping up and crouching in a fighting position. "Draco? What… why?" he said confused.
"Sorry Landrak." Draco leaned against the wall and shut his eyes tightly trying to eradicate the pain.
"What?" Harry said sitting. "Who?" he looked around the room at a pale and angry Draco a confused Landrak and a very sleepy Ron who hadn't woken up or even stirred. "Whoa." He shook his head and looked from Draco to Landrak. "Death Eater meetings at this hour." Draco groaned and slid to the ground. "What's wrong with him?" Harry asked Landrak. Landrak shook his head.
"This is what's wrong." Draco said standing suddenly, he searched through his pocket frantically and pulled out the box. He opened it and threw the ring at Harry.
"What? Ow." The ring hit Harry's scar. "What was that for?" Landrak picked up the ring and studied it carefully.
"Mm hmm." He tossed the ring up and caught it. "She hasn't told her family yet has she." He tossed the ring back to Draco who caught it and shoved it back into his pocket.
"Yes." Harry looked back and forth between them confused.
"Who hasn't told their family what?" Draco looked up and him.
"I proposed to Ginny before the summer holidays." He said glaring at Harry.
"Oh."
"She hasn't told her family yet because of stupid Ron." Draco yelled the last bit into Ron's ear. Ron mumbled and turned over snoring.
"So… what are you going to do about?" Landrak asked sleepily.
"I'm proposing again." Draco sat on the nearest cot and buried his head in his hands. "In front of the whole Weasley clan." Landrak rolled his eyes.
"Okay, yes I get that much…" he trailed off thinking. "When are you going to do it?"
"Tomorrow." Harry said, Draco glared at him.
"Excuse me Potter but I think that's my decision." Draco said warningly. "I don't think you need to worry about it."
"Sorry Draco, but tomorrow would be perfect." Draco looked at him quizzically. "You know why Mr. and Mrs. Weasley are gone?" Draco shook his head, and Harry continued. "They went to prepare some big feast and ballroom dancing thing." He explained. "And of course they are taking all of us." Draco's eyes lighted up.
"Brilliant Potter!" Draco stood up. "I'd hug you but that would raise some questions and speculations." Harry grimaced. Landrak smiled.
"It's settled then, now get off my cot I'm tired." Draco moved out of the way. He sat on his cot but he didn't move to sleep.
