A/N: Another Chapter is up. Please enjoy. R&R.
Chapter 4: Hiding and Making up
Ginny stayed silent the entire way. She felt him very tense, she knew he was angry but she wasn't sure why he could be so angry at her when she was doing what she thought was right for him, and when he knew it was the best thing to do for himself as well.
She was getting sick of crying; she was also vexed because it seemed like everything she ever says he ignores and she had had that problem enough in her lifetime, by her brothers, she didn't need it from her future husband.
Draco landed the broom and got off swiftly. He grabbed Ginny by her waist and lifted her off of it. He propped it up against the tree closest to them.
Ginny looked at her surroundings, on the way here she was thinking more then looking so she had no idea where they were. "What are we doing here?" She asked noticing they were in the middle of a forest.
"To talk, where we won't be bothered." He answered simply, taking a seat on a large rock.
Ginny bit her lip and waited for him to say something, which he didn't so it seemed like he wanted her to start the conversation. "Talk about what?"
"Why did you go to Potter and his friends? I had already told you to drop it!"
"How could I when you could get killed Draco. Killed, do you know what the meaning of that word?" she paced because she needed something to do.
"I'm not stupid Ginny." Irritated was written all over his face.
"Then why don't you pull your head out of your ass and save yourself!" She yelled unable to control the anger that had been building up inside her for the last couple of days.
"I know what I'm doing." He said taking her by her shoulders so she would look him in the eyes.
"Apparently you don't because you're not listening to me. I met with Hermione and told her to get the other two because I needed help. I'm sick of you blowing whatever I have to say off. I love you Draco, does that mean anything to you?" She asked pushing him away. She needed breathing space; he was crowding her.
"Yes it does, or I wouldn't be marrying you." He ran a hand threw his blonde hair. "I do listen to what you say, it's just sometimes not useful to me."
She used the heels of her wrist to rub her eyes. She moved them away and clapped her hands together. "Useful." She sighed. "So basically whatever I say to you, has no meaning what so ever? It doesn't matter to you what I say, is that it?"
Draco groaned in frustration. "That's not what I meant. What I meant was,"
She cut him off. "That may not be what you meant, but that's how you made it sound." This argument was getting them no where; the only thing it succeeded in accomplishing is pissing them both off.
"Ginny, what I meant is I understand your point of view, it's just I can't go into hiding." Draco sat back down on his rock and looked up at her.
"And why not? I want a logical reason, not I can't because it'll make me look stupid." She rolled her eyes and looked up at the beautiful trees around them.
"I can't because," He paused. He did need something. "Because Voldemort will notice I'm gone and that will make it all the more obvious." He answered quickly.
"That's not a very good reason, if you stay out that guy is going to tell Voldemort anyway. So either way Voldemort is going to find out what's going on." She walked over to him and sat on his lap. "I don't want to lose you." She put her face him his chest.
Draco looked down at her. Damn it, he hated to see her like this. Maybe he hadn't been looking at it from her prospective. "You won't," He sighed and wrapped his arms around her. "I'll go."
Ginny lifted her head. "Really?" she asked with a hopefully look upon her face.
"Yes, I'll go. Only under one condition."
She looked at him suspiciously. "What condition?"
He smirked. "Two actually. Number one is you stop nagging me on the subject."
"O..k" She had a feeling she knew what he was going to say for the second.
"The second is I want you to come with me. Once he finds out I'm gone, he'll go after you next. He knows I love you. It's all over the wizarding world that we're getting married. If he harms you, he'll know I'll come out hiding. It would be better if you went with me, that way neither of us get hurt." He took her hands in his and looked her straight in the eyes. He knew he had been an asshole, he couldn't help it, it was in his nature. He just hoped she would forgive him for the thing at the apartment. There was no way he would say he was sorry for hitting Potter, he deserved it.
"Draco, I can't go into hiding. I have to watch out for my brother and..." She stopped when she noticed the look in his eye. She was now sounding like him, making up excuses not to go.
She sighed. "Fine, I'll go." She looked down at her watch. "They are going to start wondering where I am. We have to go back."
"Who cares." Draco grumbled. He wasn't in a big hurry to see the dream team again.
Ginny glared at him and frowned. She had known Draco long enough to know what he's thinking some of the time. And this was definitely one of those times.
He rolled his eyes, stood up which knocked Ginny to the ground, and walked over to the tree where his broom lay. "Lets go."
Ginny pulled herself off the ground and brushed the dust off her robes. "You really know how to treat a girl." She said sarcastically as she walked over to him and got on.
He smirked. "Yeah I know isn't it great." He laughed as he flew off into the air.
**********************
Draco and Ginny landed in front of the apartment door. Climbing off, Draco opened it with his key.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione looked up.
"Where've you been?" Ron said running over to Ginny's side and hugging her. "We thought we lost you, or someone kidnapped you." He squeezed her tighter.
Ginny struggled to breathe. "I'm alright Ron." She patted him on the back, hoping that would satisfy him enough to stop squeezing her.
Ron pulled away from his sister and glared at Draco. "He didn't hurt you did he?" He whispered in her ear. When she shook her head, he began to check her for any wound at all. He was content when he saw nothing.
Draco reached out and grabbed Ron by the front of his robes. "I would never hurt Ginny, you pompous ass bastard." He pushed him up against the edge of the coffee table.
"Stop it you two." Hermione said annoyed from behind Draco.
"Yeah, I think we've had enough fights and arguments today." Harry pulled Draco off Ron and shook his head. "Fighting doesn't solve anything."
"They might not solve anything but they sure in hell make us feel better." Ron gritted through his teeth. Draco was going to pay for everything he's ever did, someday Ron would make sure of it. He only had to make sure that nobody else was around.
Ginny sighed heavily. "Who's up for pizza?" She asked hoping everyone would agree, she didn't, and wasn't I the mood to cook.
"As long as I'm not paying." Harry smiled.
**********************************
Ginny lay in the dark on their bed, she couldn't sleep. So many questions and thoughts were running through her mind, she couldn't rid herself of them.
She turned to a sleeping Draco. He looked so cute when his ungelled blonde hair fell into his eyes. She smiled and began to run her figures through his hair. He has such soft hair when it wasn't trapped and pastured to his head.
He noticed her watching him but he let her think he was still asleep. He couldn't get what she had said in the forest out of his head. Where would he be without her? Did she sometimes think he was neglecting her? He wasn't trying to. He couldn't help he came from a dysfunctional family. He wasn't used to having to tell people he loved them. Sometimes he wasn't even sure how to show he loved her, it was confusing.
He opened his eyes, he knew he had to ask her.
She jumped; she wasn't expecting him to be awake. "I didn't realize I woke you up." She said sheepishly pulling her hand away from his hair.
He caught it before she could completely take it away. "I wasn't asleep." He said pulling her hand to his lips and kissing it gently.
"Oh." She said oddly touched by the kiss. She smiled at him.
"Ginny, I have a couple of questions I need to ask you." He said uncertainly. He held onto her hand for comfort.
"Alright, go ahead." She squeezed his hand.
"Do you think I forget or neglect you sometimes?" He had never felt this nervous before, even when he had proposed to her he had more confidence then this. He felt his hand start to sweat.
Ginny wasn't sure how she was going to answer that, she closed her eyes and decided to tell him the truth. "Yeah, sometimes." She whispered unsure of what his reaction was going to be.
Draco turned away from her. He needed to hit something. Marriages, or soon to be married, shouldn't happen this way. What was he suppose to do? Crawl on his hands and knees and ask for forgiveness, because if that how it worked he was going to walk out that door now. There is no way a girl, even one he loves, who is going to make him ruin his pride.
"Draco?" Ginny asked uncertainly. She could feel the anger vibrate from his body. Why is he mad? She answered the bloody question, and she answered it truthfully.
Draco bit his tongue from saying something he would regret and flipped back towards her. He had to say the two words he hated. He had to if he wanted to keep her. Damn it, why did his father have to make him such an asshole?! Maybe if his father hadn't he wouldn't be having this conflict now.
He sighed. He took Ginny by the hand. "Ginny, I'm going to say this and I'm probably never going to say this again. I'm sorry. I know I'm an asshole and I know some of the things I've put you through, I'm probably going to do some more." Draco paused for a moment to redeem himself. "I can't help where or what backround I came from. I can't help who the hell I am. I'm not used to this kind of stuff, I'm used to being able to walk away without any regret but this time I know I won't be able to. So for the long run, if I'm acting like an asshole, hit me."
Ginny giggled and grabbed Draco by the neck and kissed his hard on the mouth. "I love you Draco." She smiled.
"I know you do." He smirked.
She hit him.
"Ow what was that for?" He asked rubbing his head.
"When I say I love you, you're suppose to say it back."
He smirked again. "Oh, that's what people do." He jumped up just in time to avoid the pillow, before it came crashing down on his head.
"Come back here." Ginny yelled chasing him around their bedroom.
A/N: Well, That's it for this chapter. Please R&R. ::Sees Ginny and Draco kissing:: Oh eww, You guys need to get a room.
