Chapter 2

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

"I don't really sound like Potter do I?" he asked.

Ginny couldn't say anything. She was way to confused and shocked. Malfoy looked from one face to the other.

"What's wrong boys? Scared?" he said smirking.

"Why would we be scared of a ferret?" asked Neville, surprising everyone.

"I don't know Longbottem, why are you friends with a weasel?" Malfoy replied.

Seamus stood up, but Neville and Dean pulled him back down.

"Look, I didn't come here to chat. I just came to tell Weasley here to watch her back and stay away from my tree." Malfoy said plainly.

"First of all, thank you for the warning Captain Revenge, (she saluted), and second, it's not your tree." she said to him. Malfoy glared and walked away.

"He's such a prat." said Neville.

"Yeah, but power to you man! You should talk back to him more often." Ginny said. "Your a lot stronger now. You could totally kick his ass."

"If only," Neville said with a dreamy look on his face, "If only."

"Alright people, we'd better get a move on. We are gonna be late." Dean said standing.

"I guess." Seamus sighed.

"I don't wanna go!" Ginny whined. "I have to go outside and it's cold today."

"Stand up." Neville said pulling her up.

"Whoa" she said grabbing onto the table. "Headrush"

"Guys, we have to go" Dean urged.

"Okay, okay we're coming." Seamus said.

"I think I'm gonna skip. I don't feel good." Ginny lied doing her best sick face.

"Your a horrible liar, and a big baby." Neville said as the walked out of the hall.

"But it's cold out!" Ginny whined again. Neville muttered something under his breath, and Ginny suddenly felt warmth spread through her.

"What did you just do!?" she asked grinning at him.

"Heating charm. Hermione taught me." he said. "Now lets go."

"Thanks." she said as they went their separate ways.

"It was nothin." he called over his shoulder.

Ginny made her way down the sloping lawn to Hagrid's hut, where her next class was. This time, he had created drifflers, which were a cross between and dragon and a niffler. (Don't ask me how...) Everyone gasped when Hagrid dumped them out of the box. He beamed with pride. They looked horrible. They had furry heads and their bodies were covered with hard, shiny scales. They not only dug up gold, (nifflers do that), but they set fire to it as well. Ginny took note of this, and removed her necklace and gold ring.

"Hagrid," she asked looking up at the giant.

"What can I do fer ya Ginny." he asked.

"I was just wondering if I could put my gold in a safe place before I play with those adorable creatures over there. I must say, you did a wonderful job." she said giving him a smile. Sucking up always got her what she wanted. Hagrid blushed, and gave a huge grin.

"Sure. Anything for my favorite student." he said patting her on the back, making her almost fall over.

She walked over behind his hut, and set her jewelry on a stump. She turned to walk back, when she heard a swish and a thud. It came from the woods. She turned and looked, but saw nothing.

"Great. Just what I need. To go insane 2 weeks before finals." she thought to herself.

She started walking back, when she heard it again. She looked to see if Hagrid noticed she wasn't back yet, and saw that a driffler got loose, and was chasing a poor Hufflepuff trying to get the chain around her neck, almost setting her robes on fire.

"That should keep him occupied." she thought as she set off into the forest.

She was getting closer to the sound with every step, until finally, she noticed her tree. Malfoy was there.

"What is that poor excuse for a target doing on this beautiful tree." she said walking up and leaning against it.

"I would move if I were you." Malfoy said.

"I would rather not" she said challengingly.

"Suit yourself." he said, taking a step forward.

Just then, a knife flew right in front of Ginny's face, narrowly missing her nose.

"Jesus!" she yelled as she scrambled backwards.

"Actually, the names Draco, and I told you to move." he said walking toward the tree to retrieve his knife.

"Where did you learn to do that?!" Ginny asked, frightened, but impressed.

"My father taught me." he said walking back to his spot.

Ginny backed away this time, and watched him. He stood in a certain stance every time, always pointing the knife where he wanted it to go, drew his arm back, and threw. The whole time, he never took his eyes off of the spot, never even blinked.

"How do you keep your concentration so well?" she asked when all of his knives were sticking out of the tree.

"Years of practice." he said, never once looking at her.

"Could you teach me?" she asked somewhat jokingly.

He looked her slowly up and down, making her blush, and finally met her eyes.

"Sure." he said.

"Really?!" Ginny said surprised, her eyes wide. "I was only joking. I didn't think you would actually say yes." she laughed.

"You thought wrong. Now come her." he beckoned her with his finger. "We'll start now."

"Malfoy, seriously, I was only joking. You don't have to -"

"No. I said I would, and Malfoy's never go back on their word. Now come over here and stand next to me."

"Okay then..." she said as she walked slowly over to him.
