Chapter 5: A Surprise Ending
That night, Draco apparated back home after work, and tossed his cloak on the sofa in his first floor library. He was tired, just because his father had gotten him a top job at the ministry didn't mean that spared him any of the hard work that came with it. Today he had to put up with two angry heads yelling at him from his office fireplace. Flopping down into his favorite high-backed chair, he shut his eyes and enjoyed the silence.
The silence was broken by running and staggered footsteps coming down the hall. Ginny's voice, though slightly altered to sound more evil, rang out "I will get you little princess! Your prince isn't here to save you now!"
"My prince will come! Just you wait, Evil Queen!" Their footsteps came closer to his door. "Oh what the hell." He muttered and threw open the door just as Raven was walking by.
"Ah," he said in mock braveness, "my fair princess, your prince has arrived." Raven positively beamed at him. Ginny a few feet behind stopped in her tracks, eyes widening. Draco raised his eyebrows and signaled for her to continue.
"You will not take her!" Ginny growled, limping dramatically over to them. "She is my captive!" Raven gave a little squeal and hid behind Draco, clutching his trousers.
"You will not have her, she is my princess." Draco said boldly stepping up to Ginny and pulling out his wand. Ginny grinned and drew hers out. They stood in a dueling position. Raven, grinning from ear to ear, cowered behind Draco.
Draco brandished his wand and struck Ginny's like it was a sword. Ginny smiled and began to duel Draco with her wand. The duel raged on and Draco started to smirk. In one graceful movement he maneuvered himself behind Ginny and had one arm across her shoulders and the other one pulling her free arm behind her back. He had her tightly pinned against his chest. She tried to wriggle out of his hold to no avail.
"A little something I learned in fencing Evil Queen, now drop your sword; the princess is mine."
"Draco, let me go." Draco grazed Ginny's ear with his lips. "Not until the Queen drops her sword." Her hand relaxed and the wand rolled from her fingertips and dropped to the floor. Draco started to snicker in her ear. "Malfoy!" Ginny began to struggle and turned her head only to have her lips brush against the soft flesh of his. Jumping apart like scalded cats Draco and Ginny started stuttering apologies.
Raven cooed, "Now that's a surprise ending! I've never heard a story where the Evil Queen and the Prince fall in love." Draco turned and gave Raven a death glare while Ginny was blushing with her head down.
Draco glared at Raven. "We are not in love." Raven, looked at them sweetly and nodded acting like they were the four year olds and had just told a big fib.
"You guys kissed!" She said in a singsong voice. "Drakey and Dinny kissed!" Then she started jumping around in the hallway. "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"
Draco glared at her, "We did not kiss."
"Oh yes you did!" Raven said jumping around them. "You kissed!"
"Raven honey, I think we should go get you ready for dinner and drop this whole thing. It was a mistake, and didn't mean anything. Okay? Just let it go, you too Drakey." Ginny said calmly, yet still looking at Draco a bit nervously.
"Okay," Raven said. No one noticed her little fingers crossed behind her back…

"Dinny?" Raven asked a bit nervously. "Do you have a boyfriend?" Twisting a lock of hair in between her fingers, Raven eyed Ginny waiting for her response.
"Not right now," Ginny answered slowly. "Why?" Ginny looked over at Raven who was sitting by a big pink dollhouse; she was watching Ginny closely.
"I-I was just wondering," Raven said turning back to her dollhouse and picking up her two favorite dolls, a man with blonde hair and a woman with red hair.
"Is this about…some boy that you like?" Ginny asked lying on her stomach on Raven's bed; grinning girlishly at her.
Raven scrunched up her face, "Ew, no," she sat back on her knees and looked at Ginny curiously. "Have you ever had a boyfriend with blond hair?"
Ginny eyed Raven suspiciously, "No…"
"I think blond hair is nice, don't you?"
"I suppose. Why are you asking?"
"Would you marry a boy with blond hair?" Raven asked wiggling her eyebrows.
Ginny sighed loudly. "Raven, what exactly are you getting at?"
"Do you think that Draco is cute?" Raven smiled at her wickedly, and giggled.
"RAVEN! This is not something that I really want to talk about, okay?" Ginny's cheeks burned a bright pink.
"Okay, okay," Raven said holding her hands up.
"Well then," Ginny said getting off her bed, "We need to get you ready for dinner." Ginny walked over to Raven's closet and pulled out a purple robe. "This is pretty, do you want to wear it?"
Raven got up with her dolls still in her hands, "Okay." Ginny helped her get dressed. "Dinny, can I help you get ready?" Ginny looked at her quizzically.
"Sure," she answered slowly.
"Yeah! Let's go!" Raven grabbed Ginny's hand and led the way to Ginny's room. Raven let go and then flopped onto Ginny's bed. Ginny looked at her a bit perturbed but shrugged, walking over to the closet. She pulled out a simple black robe with silver clasps; Raven wrinkled her nose.
"I don't think so Dinny." Raven walked over to the closet and yanked down the dark green robe; it fell and the hanger clattered on the floor. "Wear this one." Ginny eyed the robe wearily. Hermione had given it to her last Christmas, and it was rather low cut, Ginny hadn't worn it yet.

Raven was trying to pull Ginny into the dining room. "Dinny! You look purdy!" Draco who was already sitting at the table was frowning in their direction. Raven was now jerking and pulling on Ginny's hand.
"I don't know why I let you talk me into wearing this!" Ginny exclaimed from the other side of the door. "Just let me go back to my room and change." Draco smirked and pushed back his chair and walked to the door, Raven saw him and gave him a pleading look. He nodded and she grinned up at him. Raven held on to Ginny's hand long enough for Draco to reach over and grab her hand. Ginny gasped and Draco pulled, causing Ginny to fall into the dining room, straight into Draco's chest. Ginny looked up at him and caught her breath, he was grinning devilishly down at her bosom.
She shoved away from him, "You pervert!" Ginny snarled.
Draco raised an eyebrow, "It's not my fault you're wearing that."
Ginny rolled her eyes, "You don't have to look." Draco smirked and shifted his gaze to her legs, which were exposed due to the shortness of the robe.
"That better?" He asked complacently; Ginny groaned.
"Could you just not look at me at all?" Ginny asked shortly; Draco snickered.
"I could try." Ginny walked over to the table and sat down, crossing her arms over her chest. Raven was giggling behind her hand.
Ginny frowned over at Raven, "It's your fault that I'm wearing this."
"You let a four-year-old decide what you wear?" Draco asked faking genuine interest. Ginny went slightly pink.
"Well I --." Draco cut her off.
"It doesn't matter." He called Hopkins who went to get Miss Wells to bring in dinner.

The next few days were uneventful. Draco and Ginny tried to ignore each other, while Raven tried to get them together. On Friday night an hour before dinner they were all sitting in one of Draco's libraries. Ginny was reading Raven a book, and Draco was doing some work.
"Malfoy?" Ginny asked softly. "Do I get a day off? You can't really expect me to stay here all summer without a break."
Draco looked at her brows furrowed, "A day off? What am I going to do with Raven?"
"I don't know, aren't you supposed to be the one watching her this summer anyways?"
"What day is it that you want off?" Draco said changing the subject.
"Saturday, I'm going somewhere with some friends…or at least I'm supposed to."
"I didn't say that I wanted to know your plans." Draco said callously. Ginny glared at him, and Raven was watching them raptly. "Saturday…" he murmured. "Okay, I guess you can have Saturday off."
Ginny rolled her eyes, "Thanks boss."
Draco was getting ready to say something else, but Hopkins came in the room. "Master Malfoy, a letter has arrived." He handed Draco the letter and scurried out of the room.
Draco scanned through the letter, "HOLY SHIT! DAMMIT! I can't believe I forgot!" He bellowed.
Raven widened her eyes and her mouth made a perfect 'o' shape. "Drakey has a potty mouth."
