Malfoy looked stunned as a big ball of blinding red threw itself on him,
knocking himself to the ground. He looked up and saw the freckly face of
Ron yelling back at him. A string of insults left his mouth as Ron punched
him where it really hurts. He punched Ron in the nose and rolled out from
under him as Ron tried to get Draco on the cheek. Ron spat at him and
kicked him in the shin, which Draco returned with a punch in the jaw and a
twist of Ron's arm. Suddenly a small hand grabbed Ron by the arm and threw
him against the wall before either of them could stop her. Ginny stood
protectively in front of her brother and so Draco raised his hands
defensively and backed away. She turned and glared at Ron who took a deep
breath and then nodded. She stood in the middle of the two and then spoke
quickly before any of them could fight again. "Listen. Ron, you idiot, I
don't really have a boyfriend I was just trying to hide the fact that Draco
is staying here. And before you yell, he didn't do anything to me. It's
fine. I didn't want to hurt your feelings because you looked so happy so I
just went along with it. I am sorry for leading you on. Forgive me?" She
said this last bit so fiercely all Ron could do was nod and breath deeply
to stop himself punching Malfoy in the head. "Draco, why did you play
along? Why couldn't you have just pushed him off and ran? Now my brother
has a bleeding nose and it's all your fault," At this point Draco made a
motion to protest but Ginny held her hand up so he merely pointed to his
crotch painfully, "Yes, ok Ron was a bit of a bumhead but so were you. I am
sorry for sneezing it was meant to be a diversion for Ron whilst I tried to
think of a fake name. Forgive me?" Draco also nodded numbly. Ginny then
took a deep breath and asked calmly, " Draco, where is Shadow?"
"He's hiding in the living room I think."
"Go and hug him, he's probably a bit freaked out." Draco wordlessly obeyed.
"Where is he sleeping?" Ron asked after Malfoy had left.
"In the living room, why?"
"Just so long as it's not with you."
"Ron, you know I'm still a virgin. I'm not about to lose my virginity to Draco." Although you wouldn't mind would you! Ginny slapped her head angrily, her thoughts were gross.
"I know. So, really you are still single?"
"Yes."
"Oh. You did seem very happy though, ever thought about being an actress?"
"No."
"You were acting right?"
"YES!"
"Ok, ok."
They looked at each other for a minute before Draco came strolling back in, petrified cat in arms. He looked at the two awkward figures and then strolled back into the living room.
"Right. Well I'd better be going then."
"Um, yeah."
Ron kissed her on the cheek and then hugged her,
"Bye then Gin. Speak to you soon."
"Bye! Love you!"
"Love you too."
"Please don't tell everyone about Draco."
Ron hesitated, frowning slightly, but then he smiled, "Sure. Whatever you want Gin. Bye!" and with that he walked down the steps of her porch and out into the street. Ginny waved him off, gratefully, until he turned the corner at the end of the road.
Sighing, she shut the door and turned to see Draco raising his eyebrows accusingly at her. "Don't look at me like that! I'm sorry, I forgot about the whole 'sneeze when you want me to run' thing. I really am sorry."
Draco sighed heavily but shrugged his shoulders and walked off to watch ER, one of his favourite muggle shows. Only problem was Virginia didn't have cable so he was still eagerly awaiting that kiss between Abby and Carter. He loved the one where Susan Lewis, John Carter, Abby Lockhart, Luca Kovac and that new guy were sent on the sexual harassment course. But poor Carter, only 11 years old? No wonder he hadn't slept with Susan yet, he probably is scarred for life. He would never admit his obsession though, because he was worried it would question his manliness.
