Summary: Late, stormy nights are the one thing that Ginny finds comforting, and by chance, it's the only thing Draco Malfoy finds comforting.
Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters... the song lyrics are from "Lucky" by Bif Naked. It's kind of a theme song for the fic, but you really have to listen to the song to get the feeling...
Author's Note: I changed the title, I wasn't expecting my fic to become so much in depth, but it did, and I didn't think the sappy title was really fitting anymore.

I know we are..we are the lucky ones I know we are..we are the lucky ones I know we are..we are the lucky ones, dear
"Damnit Ginny! The visions! I know you have them, I felt it when you closed your eyes." Draco yelled after she sat there in silence.
"Yes." She finally said, "I have them."
"About bloody time you started talking. I was beginning to lose my temper." Draco visibly cooled down.
Ginny nodded and whispered, "I'm sorry."
Draco ignored her and began pacing the room. Every once in a while he would stop and rub his temples. Finally Ginny spoke up.
"Is that all you wanted to know?" She tried to sound confident.
Draco stopped and stared at her in puzzlement.
"Because, I want to go back to my common room." Her voice got quieter and quieter.
"I thought we could talk..." Draco said in a childlike tone.
Ginny let out a 'humph' and plopped onto his bed. Draco came and sat next to her.
"How long have you had them?" He asked softly.
"Since I was around eight I think. You?" Ginny replied in a whisper soft tone.
"My whole life. My parents don't know, because I thought that my father would find someway to use it to help Voldemort." Draco turned to look down on her crown of red spirals.
"I thought you were a follower of Vol-" Ginny couldn't bring herself to say his name, "of you-know-who."
"Never. My parents are, but I'm not. I don't think I could ever become a death eater. I don't like to kill." Draco calmly explained.
"Oh." Ginny didn't know what else to say.
"I'm glad I'm not alone." Draco said, almost to himself.
"Me too. I'm glad I finally have someone to relate to." Ginny turned to look up at him with a genuine smile.
Draco gave her his first real smile. Ginny brought her hand up to and rubbed the side of his mouth with the pad of her thumb.
"I like it when you smile." Ginny whispered as if she didn't want to break the moment.
"Do you?" Draco lightly teased her, and turned his head so he kissed her fingers, "I like the softness of your skin."
Ginny blushed slightly, and Draco rubbed her cheek with his knuckles.
"You're beautiful when you blush." He stated softly.
"Thank you." Ginny's voice barely made the sound of a whisper.
Draco gently tilted his head down, and captured her lips with his. She slowly brought her arms up around his neck, and they fell back onto the silk of his bed. Draco's hands crept to her waist, and he pulled her body against his.
Ginny had never been kissed the way Draco was kissing her. She rather liked it, and was pleased when the tiny, nagging voices in her head disappeared.Of course, she was to caught in the moment to know that when the voices went away, something was coming.
She broke the kiss with a cry as a searing pain wripped through her head, and she was blinded by a rather bright light. Draco panicked, not knowing what was happening to her. He gathered her close to his body, even when she started beating him on the chest with her tiny fists.
"Stop it!" She screamed.
*****
She suddenly found herself in water. Deep water. She struggled above to the surface of the water and sputtered for air. The skies were dark and thunder rumbled in the distance. The waves were high, but she managed to float.
Where the hell am I, she thought grimly.
The water stung like glass because of its freezing temperature. She felt hot tears pour from her eyes, leaving trails of burning fire as they went down her cheeks.
"Atleast my cheeks are warm." She commented with stale humor.
A tidal wave washed over her, and she began to sink to the bottom.
*****
"Gin, please Gin." There was a voice pleading for her to wake up.
She heard the voice, and fought to to see the light.
"What happened Mister Malfoy?" She recognized the voice of Dumbledore.
"We were...well..." Draco stuttered and she could almost see him turning another colour.
"Please, we need to know how to help her." That voice belonged to Madam Pompfrey.
"We were kissing, and she suddenly started screaming 'stop it' and then she passed out. She wasn't yelling for me to stop kissing her, she looked as if she was in pain. So much pain.....so much pain...." She heard the tears in his voice.
"What else? Is there something even more important that you need to tell us?" Dumbledore seemed to know when they weren't telling the whole truth, it was like his sixth sense.
"I think it has to do with her visions." Draco said quietly.
Oh Draco, She wanted to reach out of the darkness and hold him.
"What visions?" Snape was there too.
"The storm visions. Everytime she needs to escape, she closes her eyes, and a beautiful sea storm appears. I have those visions too. I can feel when she has them, that's why I know that that was happening to her. But they've never hurt either of us before. I don't know why they would hurt her now." Draco explained.
"Oh dear..." Professor McGonagall was also there, "Do you think...Albus...please tell me that it's not true."
"I think so." Dumbledore sounded tired.
Ginny felt the light hit her in another blinding pain, yet this time she couldn't cry out. She opened her eyes, yet it felt like they were wripped open.
"Draco?" She whispered.
"Ginny?" Draco turned to her, and she saw the cloud of tears that glazed over his eyes.
"Draco, I was so scared." Her voice cracked.
Draco ignored the protests of the Professor's and climbed into the bed in an instant to hold her close.
"It was so horrible. They've never been horrible before." Ginny mumbled, "I was there Draco, I was in the water this time."
"Ssshhh. You're okay now, I'm here. I'm right her." Draco gently rocked her.
*****
Do you like it? I like it. I know a lot of you are mad the Draco seemed OOC. But he isn't really, he'll still be a git to the Dream Team. I just wanna show how much Ginny really means to him.
