The Story of an Auror's Romance

Chapter 3
When I woke up it was close to 6 o'clock, so I decided to go down to the Three Broomsticks for dinner. When I arrived, it wasn't that packed which was good. I sat in my usual chair, and Rosemerta soon handed me a dinner menu. I was trying to decide whether to have a chicken Caesar salad or a hamburger when I heard a voice in front of me say, "Do you mind if I join you?" I put the menu down and saw Draco Malfoy. Then it struck me. What the heck is he doing out in broad daylight when he is like the most wanted man in the world. "Sure," I said without even thinking about it. I went back to my silent conflict behind my menu when Madame Rosemerta came back, "Ok Gin, what would you." then she spotted Draco sitting there, and immediately stopped. She decided to be a little friendly so she smiled at him and he smiled back. "Could I have the chicken Caesar salad and a glass of butterbeer please?" She shook her head writing it down. "What would you like?" she asked Draco. "I'll have the same," she nodded writing something down and walked away. "So, what's new Weasley?" he asked. I sighed, "Nothings new, and my name is Ginny." I had to stop this Weasley crap now! "Sorry, Ginny," he said. "Thank you, Draco." We talked for a while, until our food came, then we ate in silence. When we were finished Madame Rosemerta swept away the dishes, and left the bill. Before I could even pick it up, Draco grabbed it, and examined it. He then put the money on the table. "Excuse me. I should at least pay for my part of the bill," He shook his head, "Nope dinners on me." I shrugged rolling my eyes, I got up, and Draco got up to. As we walked out the door I waved to Rosemerta, she gave me a worried look. We walked up and down the streets some, talking a little bit. I was starting to fall for him. I don't know why, because he had always teased me in school, and here I am, starting to fall in love with him. I liked the change. And for him it was a major change! I didn't know if I could arrest him yet, I still felt kind of skeptical about the whole being in broad daylight thing. Finding him was easier then I thought. When we had walked the length of Hogsmeade, and back to the Three Broomsticks, I said my good bye, and turned, but he grabbed me arm. Not roughly thank god! "Gin, I've wanted to say this from the first time I ran into you. You are so beautiful." I blushed a little, and decided to reply with, "Draco, I'm very surprised, because I had always thought that you would never change from your cold heartless ways. And here you are, telling a Weasley that she is beautiful." He smiled, and I smiled back. "Will you meet me here tomorrow, same time as today?" he asked. I nodded, "I would love to meet you for dinner, but this time I want to pay." He laughed, "If you must." We stood there staring into each other's eyes for a few moments. Then, his lips slowly connected to me, in the most breathtaking kiss I have ever experienced. My arms slid around his neck, and his slid around my waist. He ran his tongue along my bottom lip and I let it enter my mouth hungrily, deepening the kiss. I pulled away, my breathing ragged. I kissed him softly, said good night, then made my way to my apartment through the Three Broomsticks, but I stopped to tell Rosemerta the whole thing, and she was really surprised. Later that evening, I put my latest book on my nightstand, switched off the light, and burrowed deep into my covers. I soon fell asleep to the sound of a chorus of crickets.
