Chapter 4: Frosty Fun or Why Me?
Last Time.....
Draco looked up surprised to see....
~*~*~
(A/N: I had a hard time deciding who to do... Hope this is okay..)
"Malfoy!" Hermione said impatiently, "Did you hear me at all. Since you look so lonely we girls thought that you might help us cream the guys over there."
Draco looked beyond Hermione to see Katie Bell, Angelina Johnson, and Ginny Weasley standing just behind Hermione. He could see Potter and the 3 Weasley brothers huddled together plotting something.
"Why me?" Draco inquired, a look of pure confusion on his face.
"Malfoy," Ginny said, stepping towards them, "You seem to have changed this year, I'm not sure if it's permanent, but it's a nice change to see in a Slytherin. Especially so soon after the Dark Lord's return, and with your Father being so...well..."
Her voice trailed off, but he knew what she meant. His father had been the one who had practically killed Ginny Weasley in her first year by giving her Tom Riddle's diary.
"Yeah," Katie said grinning, "The guys'd never expect that we would try to solicit you into helping us in our attack against them. Your a perfect weapon!"
"C'mon Malfoy!" Pleaded Hermione, "They're bigger than us measly girls!" She said pretending to pout, "Please help us poor pathetic girls?"
With that statement she earned smacks and a chorus of hey's from the other three. Draco grinned, "Sure," He said as he got up from his perch on the side of the steps, "It'll be fun!"
The girls grinned at each other and enveloped Draco into a huddle as the 5 of them plotted revenge on the boys.
~*~*~
Harry looked over to the girls' huddle over at the main steps.
"Okay guys," He heard George say, "We must cream these pathetic women or we are no more women than they are!"
Harry smiled at this statement, all the while his attention fixed upon Ginny Weasley. He could see her long red hair escaping from her protective scarf.
He saw her turn around and they're eyes locked. Ginny blushed and turned away. Harry could feel his cheeks heating up as well. He turned away and saw Ron looking at him strangely.
Harry desperately hoped that Ron hadn't seen him just now. He was startled when Ron suddenly turned his attention to an approaching figure cloaked in black.
~*~*~
Hermione and the other girls crept quietly along the side of the building behind the boys' grouping. Hermione's plan seemed to be working. Draco was a perfect distraction for them.
Draco would go up and talk to them, averting their attention from them, giving them a chance to sneak up behind them and pelt them with a barrage of snowballs.
She could hear their conversation as clear as a bell.
"Hello boys!" Draco said cheerfully, "Plotting revenge on a lovely group of Gryffindor females I presume?"
"Sod off Malfoy!" Snarled Ron.
"Relax Weasley, I was merely approaching you fine gentlemen in hopes that I might aid you in defeating those of the finer sex."
Ron and Harry looked at each other confused. Hermione stifled a giggle. She could hear the others doing the same. She caught Draco's eye and winked.
They raised their arms, snowballs in hand and released the cold wet sphere's of ice.
One by one they hit their marks, the girls constantly throwing more and more before the males had a chance to retaliate. Draco even joined in the fun. Soon they're world was filled with clouds of snow coming at them from every direction. Laughter could be heard from all parties involved.
Hermione smiled as she saw Draco get pelted with a snowball by Ginny. She giggled as she saw Ginny shriek as he came after her with a huge fist of snow. She sighed and threw her handful of snow at Draco's retreating back to get his attention away from chasing Ginny.
She herself shrieked and ran away as she saw the mischievous glint in his eyes as he came after her.
~*~*~
Draco was running after Ginny when he felt something cold hit his back, he whipped around to see Hermione grinning at him and then running off towards the trees.
He grinned and ran after her. Not knowing what was going to happen when he caught up to her but joyfully aware that they weren't going to be followed by anyone.
~*~*~
Harry barely noticed when Hermione ran off with Draco hot in pursuit. He was more interested in getting back at Ginny.
Ginny saw Harry coming and fled towards the part of the trees opposite to where Hermione and Draco had gone only moments before.
Once they where in the enclosure of the trees Harry was able to catch up to Ginny. He quickly tackled her to the ground.
She was twisting and giggling in his arms. Suddenly their eyes met. And she stopped moving. Her softly brought his lips to hers and he kissed her.
She was surprised but not displeased by this sudden shower of emotion. She returned the kiss with enthusiasm and much emotion.
Harry assumed from her willingness to continue that it would be all right to go a bit further. He opened his mouth slightly and slipped his tongue out ever so slightly and brought it across her soft lips.
She responded enthusiastically by parting her lips to allow his tongue to enter. She sighed when they parted for air.
He smiled sheepishly. He lay there with there in his arms as they grinned at each other. Ginny slid her arms around his neck softly and pulled him down for more.
~*~*~
Hermione stopped gasping for breath, she heard Draco jog up equally winded. She grinned at him.
"So that was fun huh?" She said as she sat down against the trunk of a maple tree.
"Uhh, yeah," He said, unable to keep the happiness from his voice. "Listen Hermione I--"
"Did you just call me Hermione?" She interrupted turning to face him.
He sat down next to her. "Yeah, is that not ok?" When she nodded he smiled widly at her. "Hermione," she grinned as he said her name, "Thank you for letting me join in. I had a lot of fun."
"Oh it was nothing Draco," She grinned inwardly as he saw his grin widen when she said his first name, "You looked really lonely, and I thought that maybe ... you could use some fun. I never see you doing anything like this with your house mates... I guess they don't know how to have fun huh?"
Draco snorted at this, "Yeah, they know diddly squat when it comes to being nice to people, having fun, and just enjoying each other's company. All they seem to want to do is argue over who's parent is the best Death Eater."
Hermione's smile faded, she turned away, "I'm sure you must join right in with them huh? Proud that your father is a Death Eater Draco?"
What?!? He thought outraged. He turned her towards him so that they could see eye to eye, he brought her face close to his and pulled her into a gentle kiss. When they broke apart he said, "Would someone who was proud that their father was a Death Eater kiss the muggle born that he was in love with?"
