Act One
Scene Two
(The scene is in the home of Draco Malfoy. He is sitting in the living room with Pansy Parkinson. They are sitting on a sofa, talking.)
DRACO: I can't stand that Potter!
PANSY: Oh, quit thinking about him already.
DRACO (exasperatedly): But he has everything! He's got a great girlfriend that he's marrying, he's brilliant, he's got tons of galleons, he's got a spot a quidditch team, everybody likes him...
(It's quiet for a moment. Finally, Pansy speaks.)
PANSY: I have an idea.
DRACO: What is it?
PANSY (to herself): Of course, it will require some sacrifices from both of us...
DRACO: What do you mean?
PANSY: Do you want to ruin Potter's life?
DRACO: Of course! Who wouldn't?
PANSY: Well then, it's simple. What the one thing his life revolves around? (he doesn't answer). Think now. The one person he cares more about than anything else in the world.
DRACO: Oh. Ginny, of course.
PANSY: Exactly! All you have to do is get Ginny to cheat on him with you- even just a long kiss or something- it'll be perfect!
DRACO: Pansy, darling, it's terrific! He'll be ruined for sure!
PANSY: And he couldn't possibly blame you. It'll be all Ginny's fault! We'll just be doing our part. It's all a part of a wonderful plan.
(song)
Back in my younger days when things were going wrong
I might sulk, I might pout.
Now I've learned if I just pitch in and do what's right
Things will always work out!
And if we all could spread a little sunshine
All could light a little fire
We all could be a little closer to our heart's desire.
Lord knows we've seen enough troubles already
We've had our fill of gray skies
So put down the vinegar, pick up the honey jar
You'll catch many more flies.
And if we all could spread a little sunshine
All could think before we strike
We all would be a little closer
To the world we'd like.
(songs ends)
(scene changes, to outside the woods. Ginny is standing with Harry, Hermione, and Ron.)
GINNY: Hey guys, I think I'm going to take a walk, okay?
HARRY: Yeah, that's fine.
HERMIONE: We'll wait for you back at the apartment.
GINNY: Sounds good.
(The other three leave, and Ginny goes off into the woods. Soon, she bumps into Draco.)
DRACO: Why are you alone in the woods?
GINNY: I was here with Harry before.
DRACO: He would let you roam alone in the woods?
GINNY: No, actually, it was my choice. I wanted some time alone, some time to think.
DRACO: Your choice? How brave.
GINNY: Brave?
DRACO: Yes.
(All the while he has been inching closer to her, and he is beside her now.)
DRACO: (song)
Anyything can happen in the woods.
May I kiss you?
Any moment we could be crushed.
GINNY: Uh-
DRACO: Don't feel rushed.
(He kisses her, she is stunned and steps away)
GINNY: This is ridiculous, what am I doing here?
I'm in the wrong story.
(the continue to kiss again, but she pulls away.)
GINNY (spoken): Wait just one moment. We can't do this. You have Pansy. And I have Harry.
DRACO: Of course, you're right. How foolish.
(sung): Foolishness can happen in the woods
Once again, please-
Let your hesitations be hushed.
Any moment, big or small, is a moment after all
Seize the moment, skies may fall any moment.
GINNY: But... this is not right.
DRACO: Right and wrong don't matter in the woods
Only feels
Let us meet the moment unblushed.
Life is often so unpleasant- you must know that, as a peasant
Best to take the moment present as a present for the moment.
(they kiss for a long while, finally Draco pulls away.)
DRACO: I must leave you.
GINNY: Will we find each other in the woods again?
DRACO (sung): This was just a moment in the woods
Our moment, shimmering and lovely and sad.
Leave the moment just be glad for the moment that we had
Every moment is of moments when you're in the woods.
(he leaves)
GINNY: What was that?
Was that me? Was that him?
Did a Slytherin really kiss me? And kiss me, and kiss me
And did I kiss him back?
Is it wrong? Am I mad? Is that all? Does he miss me?
Was he suddenly getting bored with me?
Wake up! Stop dreaming! Stop prancing about the woods
It's not beseeming- what is it about the woods?
Back to life, back to sense, back to Harry, back to family
No one leaves in the woods.
There are vows, there are ties, there are needs, there are standards,
There are shouldn'ts and shoulds.
Why not both instead?
There's the answer, if you're clever.
Have a family for warmth and a boyfriend for love,
And a Malfoy, for... whatever.
Never! It's these woods!
Just a moment- one peculiar passing moment
Must it all be either less or more, either plain or grand
Is it always "or" is it never "and"
That's what woods are for- for those moments in the woods.
Oh, if life were made of moments- even now and then a bad one.
But if life were only moments- then you'd never know you had one!
And to get what you wish only just for a moment These are dangerous woods!
Let the moment go- don't forget it for a moment, though. Just remembering you've had an "and" when you're back to "or"
Makes the "or" mean more than it did before.
Now I understand! And it's time to leave the woods!
(song ends)
(Ginny starts to leave, but as she is on the edge of the woods, she bumps into Hermione)
GINNY: Hermione... hi.
HERMIONE: Hello, Ginny.
GINNY: So...
HERMIONE: I saw, Ginny.
GINNY: Oh, Hermione! I didn't mean to, I swear! I love Harry more than anything! Please don't tell him!
HERMIONE (sighing): I won't. But Ginny, please don't do anything foolish again.
GINNY: Oh, I won't!
(Hermione leaves, and Ginny is about to leave again, when Pansy comes on.)
PANSY: Ginny Weasley.
GINNY: Pansy Parkinson.
PANSY: I know, Ginny.
GINNY: What the hell?
PANSY: So do all my friends.
(Blaise Zabini and Millicent Bulstrode enter)
MILLICENT: Oh yes. We know.
GINNY: How do you all know?
BLAISE: There's always someone watching you, Weasley.
PANSY: (song)
Careful what you do, someone's on to you, Careful what you do.
MILLICENT: Careful what you say
BLAISE: Cause you're on display every night and every day.
PANSY: Somebody's hiding in the great unknown
MILLICENT & BLAISE: Uh-huh.
PANSY: And every time you think that you're alone
Somebody's eyes are watching
MILLICENT: Somebody's eyes are seeing you come and go.
BLAISE: Somebody's out there, waiting for the show.
ALL THREE: You've got no disguise from somebody's eyes.
MILLICENT: Careful how you speak, turn the other cheek-
Be careful how you speak.
BLAISE: Think a naughty thought, and if you get caught
Well, then oh you've bought a lot of trouble.
PANSY: Somewhere there's someone with a perfect view
MILLICENT & BLAISE: Yoo-hoo
PANSY: And they're just dying for a little peek-a-boo
MILLICENT & BLAISE: Boo!
ALL THREE: Somebody's eyes are watching.
Somebody's eyes will never close, never sleep.
Somebody's after the secrets that you keep.
Who's got alibis? From somebody's eyes.
MILLICENT: Never laugh too loud, never leave a crowd
BLAISE: Never dress risque, there'll be hell to pay
PANSY: If you've ever had anything to hide
Think twice before you step outside!
ALL THREE: Somebody's eyes are watching
Somebody's eyes are following every move
Somebody's waiting to show they don't approve.
MILLICENT: Nothing satisfies
MILLICENT & PANSY: Somebody's eyes
BLAISE: Ain't no alibis
BLAISE & MILLICENT: From somebody's eyes
PANSY: You've got no disguise
ALL THREE: From somebody's eyes!
