AN: Hey, this is another fic that I made just to honor Valentine's Day, or for all of those who will be at home, don't worry, I will be too. Dateless. Maybe not boyfriend less, but definitely dateless. Oh well. Can't always get what you want, but who knows. Can Ginny and Draco get what they want? Each other? Or do they need a little help from 'lil old Cupid?
It was Valentine's Day, and everyone was bustling around. Let me make that a little more clearer. When I say everyone, I really mean, all the guys, were bustling about. Why you ask? Easy. They forgot all about it. The girls didn't. The ones that actually had dates that is. There was also a Valentine Cotillion to take place. Anyone who was anyone was going to be there. But I never said that all of them would be happy.
If you looked closely enough you'd notice that Virginia, Ginny, Weasley was in her room, looking through several Witch Weekly Vogue magazines, trying to get an idea of what was hip to wear for the ball, even though she was dateless. It didn't matter to her though; she just wanted to have fun, even though the guy she liked was all to blind to see it. Yes, Ginny Weasley was falling in love. Only problem was that she was still falling, no one had caught her yet. Yet, that is. Even her overly protective brothers couldn't shield her from love. Although, they could shield her from dating, and boy were they succeeding. But this year Ginny had the heads up, since Fred and George graduated. So with only one brother, Ron, to worry about she was ok. Especially since all Ron could think about was how to get Hermione in the sack. Hormones! He was failing miserably too. I'm pretty sure that Hermione, so caught up in trying to pass the seventh year, didn't even notice how much Ron was so deeply in love with her.
"Gin? Ginny?" A short girl, rather like Ginny's height, with short black hair and blue hazel eyes walked into the room. "Ginny? Answer me!" She paused, trying to sound out where her best friend was at the moment. "VIRGINIA WEASLEY!?"
"Don't call me THAT!" Ginny screamed back, as she walked out of the door, towards her best friend.
"I knew it'd get you out." She snickered.
"Ha. Ha. Very funny Ravinnia." Ginny said sarcastically.
"Who said I was trying to be funny?" Ravinnia asked.
"Seriously, though. Now, anyway, what d'ya want?" Ginny asked curiously.
"Oh! I see, a friend can't see her best friend in peace anymore, without being given the third degree?" Ravinnia asked, while giving Ginny the "eye".
Laughing, Ginny said, "Okay, okay. I get your point! So what's up Rave?"
"Well…" Rave faded off, on purpose.
"Well what?" Ginny pressed.
"Well, he asked me out!" Rave squealed excitedly.
"He didn't!" Ginny said excitedly as well.
"He did!" Rave said, while jumping up and down, unable to contain herself.
"Oh my gosh!! It's about time!" Ginny said, while hugging her friend and jumping up and down with her.
"D'ya think Neville really likes me?" Rave asked nervously.
"Duh! I mean, Neville is kind of the new hottie around the school." Ginny said, obviously.
Ever since fifth year summer, Neville came back stronger and cuter than ever! Reaching six foot one, brown hair with spikes, brown hazel eyes, and a six-pack! Every girl was after him.
"Oh shit! I gotta jam!" Rave said, while looking at her watch.
"Okay, but I gotta ask, what's the rush?" Ginny pried innocently.
"Well…People to meet. Places to be." Rave stated shortly.
"Uh-huh. Almost believed you, 'cept your little eye twitch. Heh. That really small one. Always gives you away. Too bad…" Ginny smirked.
"Damn!" Rave exclaimed.
"Damn, eh? A bad thing then?" Ginny asked.
"No. Not bad, but I don't want you to spy. Promise?" Rave asked.
"Now why would I spy?" Ginny asked innocently.
"You've got your twin brothers' look again. Nice try. Promise or no tell." Rave said.
"Fine. Be mean!" Ginny whined.
"I will. After all I learned from you, didn't I?" Rave asked amusingly.
"Fine. I promise. No spying. Tonight." Ginny smiled.
"Neville asked me to meet him in the Great Hall, so I could get a seat next to him. He seemed kinda nervous. I dunno why though…" Rave said. "Well I gotta go."
"Okay, okay. Bye." Ginny inwardly smirked. Her friend did have brains, but she was kind of dense in the reality of the dating world. Of course she figured that Neville was going to ask her to be his girlfriend. Duh!
"Gotta jam. Love ya Gin, see ya laters." Rave said in a hurry.
"Bye Rave. Muah!" Ginny said, as if kissing her friend on the cheek.
And her friend was soon out the door.
"Hmm…The Great Hall? Well…It is dinner, so I wouldn't be spying exactly, just eavesdropping." Ginny said smiling. And soon after that she changed into some regular muggle clothes, black jeans and a white t-shirt. After changing, Ginny skidded into the Great Hall, and was greeted by her other friends.
Ginny took a seat next to Harry and Collin. Harry greeted Ginny warmly, and so did Collin. Ginny smiled back uncertainly, but greeted them back. They all started to chat amongst themselves, until, that is, Professor Dumbledore clinked his goblet and announced that everyone was to met back downstairs in an hour for the Cotillion. Everybody left excitedly. Ginny got up after everybody left and trudged to the door depressed, but what she didn't know was that Malfoy was right behind her. When Ginny almost reached the door she heard,
"Oh, no manners Weasley?" Asked a voice from behind Ginny.
"Not for you." Ginny said, before even turning around.
"Well you might want to learn to respect your superiors." Malfoy drawled.
"Oh, well then I think I might want to continue acting the way I was already. Ignoring you." Ginny said rudely.
"Almost deserving a laugh." Malfoy smirked.
"I wasn't trying to be funny. Try taking joke lessons." Ginny said lamely.
"So very funny." Malfoy said sarcastically.
"Whatever." Ginny dismissed, ad was just about to turn the other way, when something strange happened.
**********************Draco's point of view***************************
The Weasley girl was arguing with him. How dare she! She may look hot, but he wasn't going to give into his hormones and embarrass his reputation as a Malfoy. Malfoy soon got irritated, and decided to push Ginny out of the way, which caused Ginny to fall on the floor, and sprain her wrist. Malfoy was just about to laugh, when all of the sudden he saw a little moving ball of white light, then it soon turned into a human with wings. It took Malfoy a while to realize what that was, but when he did it was too late.
"It's Cupid. Cover your fucking eyes you muggle loving bitch!" Malfoy screamed at Ginny, but alas, it was far too late to do anything the arrows came as fast as bolts of lighting, and shot Malfoy and Ginny. Soon Ginny and Malfoy's eyes lit up, and if you looked closely it looked as if fireworks exploded. They looked at each other and Malfoy said,
"Oh I'm so sorry my dearest. May I help you up?" Malfoy asked nicely.
"Of course." Ginny said politely, instead of a rude remark, and let Malfoy gently pull her up to her feet.
"You are more beautiful than the brightest of stars, the reddest of roses, the finest of jewels. I'm just sorry it took me so long to realize it." Malfoy said tenderly.
"Oh stop! You're making me blush!" Ginny said, while looking towards the ground.
"Instead of going to this Cotillion let's go to a muggle carnival." Malfoy suggested.
"But I can't." Ginny said quietly.
"Why my dearest?" Malfoy asked.
"I don't remember. I just can't…" Ginny said disappointed.
"Ginny?" Malfoy asked.
"Yeah?" Ginny asked in wonderment.
"Please grace me with your presence?" Malfoy asked gently.
"Okay." Ginny gave in.
"Let's go. I know a secret passage way out." Malfoy said, taking Ginny's hand and leading the way. The two beamed at each other and giggled the whole way through the underground passageway that would lead to Muggle London. But what the two didn't know was that after the spell wore off in three hours, they wouldn't remember anything from three hours before.
AN: I'll continue this if you REVIEW!!!!!! I hope ya like it.
