Last time on Before I Met You

"If you must know, we were just practicing our lines," said Ginny angrily as she walked away.

"Calm down Ron, he didn't look like he was going to hurt her," said Hermione softly.

"Well, you can never be too sure, can you?" asked Ron.

"Just calm down!" hissed Harry.

Before I Met You: Chapter Two: Everyone Needs Cheering Up Sometimes

Ginny ran up to her room and shut the door behind her. She couldn't believe Ron would try to tell her what to do! So many people already thought she was too young and bossing her around already, telling her what was bad and what was good. The least he could do was support her decisions and what she wanted to do. She was old enough to know what was the right thing.

"Ginny? What's wrong?" asked one of Ginny's best friends, Kimmy.

"My brother! He thinks he can just walk in and run my life! Who is he to tell me what to do and not to do? I'm old enough to make my own decisions!" yelled Ginny angrily.

"He cares about you Ginny, you have to remember that. What happened anyways? I saw you leave with DRACO MALFOY," said Kimmy.

"We were rehearsing for the auditions and my brother saw us in the library together and he freaked out," said Ginny angrily.

"Well, you were concerting with the enemy Ginny, or at least that's what all the Gryffindors say," said Kimmy.

"Kimmy, you really aren't helping," said Ginny as she slumped down onto her four-poster bed.

"O.K. I'll be a supportive friend. Go for it Ginny! Wow! You rock! Concerting with the enemy is the best! Keep it up!" said Kimmy with a false smile and tone plastered over her face.

Ginny laughed lightly, "I don't mean it that way Kimmy," smiled Ginny.

"Yea, I know. Well, it helped though didn't it?" smiled Kimmy.

"Yea," agreed Ginny.

"What are friends for if not to make a fool out of themselves right?" laughed Kimmy. "Ginny, there's been something I've been meaning to ask you," started Kimmy slowly.

"What's that?" asked Ginny curiously.

"Are you attracted to Draco Malfoy?" asked Kimmy.

"What?! That's absurd! Just because I practiced one single rehearsing thing with him doesn't mean anything!" said Ginny in disbelief.

"Ginny, I know that. I mean, you're always… you know… with the eyes and stuff, around him," said Kimmy uncomfortably.

"What are you saying Kimmy?" asked Ginny.

"You're always staring at him in the Great Hall, and giving him these dreamy eyes, like the ones I give to Harry Potter and act all girly. I mean, of course you're a girl and everything, but you act all girlish around him. As if trying to get him to notice," explained Kimmy.

"Do I really?" asked Ginny starting to panic. What if Draco Malfoy noticed that and KNEW she liked him or thought she liked him?

"Ginny, who are you trying to kid? I think Hermione and Harry noticed this to," said Kimmy.

Ginny grabbed the pillow on her bed and put it over her face in embarrassment, "This can't be happening to me," Ginny groaned.

Kimmy took a seat next to her and looked down at her, taking the pillow of her face. "Ginny, try talking to your brother, it might help. Who knows right?" suggested Kimmy.

"I've tried that about a zillion times Kimmy, it never works. His skull is just too thick to let anything get to his brain," said Ginny.

"Well, like the saying goes, try, try again and if it still doesn't work then give up cause it ain't gonna work no more," smiled Kimmy.

"Yea, great, thanks a lot Kimmy," sighed Ginny as she got up and left her room in search for her brother.

*******************

"Where is that Malfoy? When I get my hands on him I swear I will beat the ferret so bad you won't be able to recognize him!" yelled Ron angrily.

"Ron! Calm down! She said they didn't do anything and he didn't hurt her, so what's the big deal here?" yelled Hermione angrily. All she had heard from Ron was about how badly he'd beat up Draco Malfoy, and quote frankly, she was getting tired of it.

"She's right you know?" said Harry calmly.

"How would you know? How would any of you know? She's my little sister; it's my responsibility to make sure she doesn't concert with dangerous people, especially Malfoys. They're all bad," said Ron angrily.

"That's not fair Ron, maybe Malfoy's different now. Who gave you the right to judge people? Just because he does one thing wrong doesn't mean you have to pin it against him for the rest of his life," said Hermione.

"What are you trying to get at Hermione?" asked Ron.

"Just because his family line hasn't been known as very nice people so far, doesn't mean he can't be nice. Like for an example, just because your father works for the ministry doesn't mean you will," said Hermione trying to get a point through.

"Who's side are you on anyways Hermione?" asked Ron in irritation.

"I'm not on anyone's side Ron, I just don't want to hear any more of your threats that you never go through with anyways, anymore!" yelled Hermione in frustration.

"Calm down you guys, it's not that big of a deal. He didn't hurt her so let's just let it be," said Harry calmly as he stepped between the two.

Just then, Ron saw Draco passing by from the corner of his eye.

"Malfoy! Get back here!" yelled Ron as he ran up to him.

Draco turned around and stared right back at Ron, "What do you want Weasley?" said Draco in an irritated tone.

"Malfoy! Stay away from my little sister! If I ever see you with her again, I swear I will beat the bloody crap out of you!" yelled Ron in outrage.

"Like I'd ever listen to you Weasley. That'd be the day," said Draco rolling his eyes.

"Why you… you…" Ron began angrily, but Harry and Hermione interrupted.

"Let's just go Ron," said Harry as he and Hermione grabbed Ron's arm and dragged him back to Gryffindor common room.

When they got into the common room, they bumped into Ginny. "Ron, we need to talk," said Ginny sternly.

"We have nothing to talk about if you are going to talk about Malfoy," growled Ron angrily.

"Ron this has nothing to do with you, just please stop being so over protective. You know just as well as I do that I'm in control of my own life," said Ginny just as angrily.

"But you're concerting with the enemy!" yelled Ron as if it was the most obvious thing.

"As far as I know, he's not that bad Ron! Maybe you should just give him a chance!" yelled Ginny.

"Why are you protecting him when you don't even like him as a human being?" yelled Ron as Hermione and Harry turned around pretending not to notice.

"I never said I didn't like him Ron!" yelled Ginny.

"So now you do? That's it Ginny, I forbid you to see him anymore!" yelled Ron making sure that it was final.

"You can't do that to me!" yelled Ginny in outrage.

"I'm your older brother Ginny, my job is to protect you and if it means never seeing a guy like him again, then so be it. Personally, I don't think you should even be talking to him in the first place," yelled Ron.

"That's your opinion, not mine," said Ginny.

"That's not just my opinion Ginny! It's also our family's, Harry and Hermione's. Right you guys?" asked Ron.

Harry and Hermione hesitated, "You see Ron, we don't disagree with you, but we don't agree with you either," said Harry nervously.

"Oh come on you guys! It's Malfoy we're talking about here! Has everyone gone nuts? The next thing you'll be telling me is that you you've actually had a civilized conversation with him before!" yelled Ron in disbelief.

"Actually…" started Hermione.

"WHEN?" yelled Ron.

"In fifth year when I needed help with potions and he was kind enough to help me without call me names and that sort," said Hermione.

"And when he helped me force a letter to Snape so that he couldn't put me into detention for a year," said Harry timidly.

"You've got to be kidding me. I don't believe it! This has got to be some trick! He couldn't possibly be nice. Ginny, I don't care what anyone says, you're not allowed to see him anymore!" yelled Ron, as he was about to flee up into his room.

 "Ron! You can't tell me what to do forever! Just leave me alone!" yelled Ginny as she ran out of the common room in tears.

What they didn't know was that Draco had heard them from outside the tower since they were yelling so loudly and had watched as Ginny ran pass him.

Should I go to her and see if she's O.K. or should I just leave her alone? If I do leave her alone, that'd be listening to that Weasley though, so I'll go with the first choice, thought Draco as he walked after her.

Finally she stopped running and she took a seat on a Quidditch stadium bench outside on the Quidditch field.

"Hey, Ginny, you all right?" asked Draco as he took a seat next to her.

"Leave me alone Draco," said Ginny as her reply.

"I came all the way out here to see if you're all right and you tell me to lave you alone? Like I'd listen to you anyways," Draco smirked.

Ginny didn't say anything; she didn't know what to say.

"Come on, don't cry Ginny, you know what your brother will do to me if he sees you like this. Come on, it's not that big of a deal," said Draco softly.

Ginny leaned onto his shoulder, much to his surprise. He didn't flinch, but he did feel awkward. It was as if something was drawing him to her, and he definitely did not want that.

I'll help her once, and then I'm through, thought Draco reassuringly.

"Draco, there's something I've been meaning to ask you. I wanted to ask you before, but I… I just couldn't. I was wondering about last night. Whenyoukissedmediditmeananythingtoyou?" asked Ginny quickly.

Draco thought it over for a moment, wondering what would be a good answer for this type of question, especially since it was coming from the mouth of a Weasley. And he knew Ginny's head was still on his shoulder.

"Well, if you want to know," started Draco as he used one hand and mover her head from his shoulder. Slowly he let his lips brush against hers once again. And every little feeling he had felt the night before, came rushing back to him; as the kiss got deeper. Ginny wrapped her arms around his neck. She could hear her heart pounding and she just didn't seem to have enough. It sort of scared her, but all her fears were erased once Draco wrapped his arms around her waist and deepened the kiss even more.

Slowly Draco parted from Ginny, "What do you think?" he asked with a slightly smirk on his face. He then got up from his seat and left her alone once more.

Damn! I said I'd help her once and that was it! And suddenly I'm kissing her again! Something's definitely wrong with me; maybe I should see the Wizard Caleb. He is a doctor after all, thought Draco as he headed back to his dormitory.

*********************************

Ron rubbed his temples slowly in frustration. "I definitely need to calm down," he said.

"No, you need anger management," Hermione corrected.

"Whatever," sighed Ron, as he waited for Ginny to come back

"Hey, maybe a little help with my lines?" asked Harry.

"O.K. Harry, give me your script and I'll play Roxanne for now, and Ron can play the part he played last time," sighed Hermione as she took the script and started rehearsing with Harry. A few hours later Harry was exhausted and scared out of his wits about the audition.

"Don't worry about it Harry, you'll do fine," smiled Hermione reassuringly.

"Thanks Herm," smiled Harry as Ron looked around.

"Have you guys even seen Ginny yet? She hasn't some back since she left. Maybe I should go check where she is and if she's O.K.," suggested Ron.

"No way, you're the last person she wants to see right now," Hermione warned.

"But Hermione, she's my little sister, so I should definitely check on her. That's it, I'm going," Ron decided as he got up from his seat.

Hermione and Harry quickly ran over and knocked Ron back down onto the couch.

"You're not going anywhere. If she's not here, she'll be here later," said Hermione as Ron sighed in defeat. Even if he could break free of them, they'd just track him down. Which wasn't very helpful.

**********************************

What did he mean? He didn't even give me a straight answer. Maybe I should go ask him again, but then he'll think I'm not only pathetic; but also stupid, thought Ginny in frustration.

Ginny slowly got up from her seat and started walking back into the school. Her questions were still unanswered, but at least walking around usually did something to help her think. An hour later, she found herself passing the Gryffindor tower. I've passed this at least seven times already, she thought as she finally walked up to the Fat Lady.

"Polyjuice Potion," Ginny whispered as the Fat Lady swung open and let Ginny in. But much to Ginny's displeasure, the first person she saw was none other than Ron.

"Ginny! Where have you been? I was worried sick about you!" Ron yelled in frustration as Harry and Hermione sighed in disbelief of Ron's unremarkable arrogant.

"Geez Ron! I was just taking a walk," answered Ginny as she headed upstairs.

"For that long?! I don't think so. Were you hanging out with Malfoy? Cause if you were, I swear-" started Ron.

"Oh be quiet Ron!" yelled Ginny as she disappeared into her dormitory.

"Hey Ginny, guess what I found," smiled Kimmy. She was hiding something behind her back.

"What is it, Kimmy?" asked Ginny curiously.

Kimmy took the letter from behind her and waved it in front of Ginny's face.

"Oh, I was in here waiting for you to come back, when a mysterious black school owl came flying into this room, and this letter fell onto your bed. I of course fed it before taking this letter into my own hands. Quite interesting, really, Ginny. Why didn't you tell me there was something going on between you two?" asked Kimmy slyly.

"If it's my letter Kimmy, give it to me," said Ginny as she walked up to her and tried to get the letter from Kimmy's hands.

"No way, not until you tell me everything that happened last night," said Kimmy, trying to strike out a deal.

"Nothing happened Kimmy, now please give me back that letter," said Ginny as Kimmy walked toward the window.

"You better tell me Ginny, or I swear I'll throw this letter out the window. Come on Ginny, please! I'm your best friend!" yelled Kimmy as Ginny sighed in defeat. She really did want to know what the letter was about and from whom.

"Alright Kimmy, but come back in here. I don't want you to drop that letter by accident," said Ginny as she backed away slowly.

"O… K, now what happened?" asked Kimmy excitedly.

"Last night, you know we were just practicing our lines, I mean Malfoy and I. We got to that scene, you know, the scene that you liked so much, and…" Ginny trailed off in embarrassment.

"What Ginny? He's not Christian, so what's the big deal? What are you getting at?" asked Kimmy impatiently.

"Well, he thought that since he's the great looking guy, he should be Christian, and that's when your favorite part happened," explained Ginny, without getting to the actual word.

"YOU DIDN'T?! OH MY GOD GINNY!" yelled Kimmy in disbelief as she dropped Ginny's letter onto the floor. Ginny quickly picked up the letter and ran over to her bed.

"Don't yell so loudly," hissed Ginny.

"Well?" asked Kimmy.

"Well what?" asked Ginny.

"Well, how was it? Was he good? I bet he was, he's rumored to be the best so far," smiled Kimmy slyly.

"I'm not telling you Kimmy," said Ginny simply as she opened her letter. When she finished scanning through it, she gasped in surprise.

"I know," smiled Kimmy slyly. His room, thought Kimmy mentally.
