Konnichiwa Japan -
Chapter Three:For Raspberry Sake!
By MilkeyWay
* * * * * * * * * *
The wind was humid. Draco felt the sweat trickling from his neck down to his shoulder blades. He walked through the crowd with Ginny trailing behind him.
The Japanese had formed two lines, then spread apart, leaving a path for Ginny and Draco to walk through. At the very end stood Aunt Libbian with her hands clasped together and with a golden necklace on her neck.
Draco walked slowly, carefully and almost nervously. All the eyes beat down on Draco and Ginny. Ginny was not used to this attention. She felt the perspiration forming on the palm of her hands.
Finally at the end of the line, Aunt Libbian smiled brightly. She took Draco by the shoulders and pushed him down to his knees. He felt his knees scrape against the ground. She had pushed him down too harshly. What in the world?...
"Draco-san..." Aunt Libbian whispered gently, realizing her mistake by pushing him down too hard.
"Your courage is like a mighty dragon's." She took a silvery object out of her pocket. In her palm lay a dragon figurine, which was breathing out fire. It looked very strong, but the way it was breathing out the fire looked quite evil. Its eyes were beady and red, a red that immediately reminded him of blood.
Libby took his wrist and held out his palm for him, as if he was some type of dummy who couldn't move for himself. She placed the dragon on his palm and he closed his hand around it.
"This is a gift from Takeru, my husband. He asked you to take it, and I am doing this on his behalf." She kissed him gracefully on the cheek. "Please take care of it?"
Draco nodded mindlessly. He heard the Japanese clap in the background. "Step aside, Draco-san." Aunt Libbian stepped forward to meet Ginny Weasley.
Ginny nervously looked up at Aunt Libbian. "Virginia Weasley, beautiful girl, your heart is soft as your eyes. You are filled with wisdom and hope, very full of it. Take this kanzashi to represent it." Libbian put a pin with a cherry blossom behind her right ear. Then she clipped it in Ginny's auburn strands to keep it on.
The Japanese clapped even more wildly than for Draco. Aunt Libbian made Ginny and Draco face the crowd. "I present our new family Virginia Weasley and Draco Malfoy!"
Ginny flinched at Aunt Libbian's words. It made her feel like she was getting married to Draco Malfoy. Which taunted her mildly. Draco had an expressionless look on his face. The flock of people behind them started to whistle also, and the drummers were banging their bamboo sticks once again. The women started to shriek, twirling themselves, dancing to the beat of the drum.
"What did that mean?" Ginny asked Draco.
"What did what mean?"
"Those...words. Aunt Libbians word's."
"Dunno. What do you think, I was paying attention?"
The atmosphere was alive. Ginny and Draco sat in their chairs together for another couple of minutes until Ruki came around giving them each a glass of sake. Aunt Libbian raised her glass and cheered.
"A toast to Ginny's and Draco's arrival."
Everybody gulped down their sake desperately.
This was the second serving Ginny ever had of sake. The first time she drank it, she had forced it down sourly. But this time, it tasted sweet, and the tingly sensation when it went down her throat felt good.
"Mmmmmm" Ginny looked at her empty glass. She wanted more. She glanced at the table. Nobody was crowding around it anymore. They were all dancing to the drums once again. Draco was sitting in his seat, with the same sneer on his face. But at the table, there was a bottle. A red bottle on the table. Ginny evilly grinned and went over to the table to pour more sake into her glass.
The bottle was fully filled. This is so my day! She tilted the bottle so more sake would flow out. The smell of alcohol drugged her, but she enjoyed it. Down the sake went again. She flinched at the tingly feeling. One more glass, it won't hurt... One glass after the other, she gulped like she had never done so before.
Nobody even saw her drinking that whole bottle of sake. Her vision became blurry, and she felt nauseous. She staggered to the Japanese people and started to dance along with them. Except, well, looking drunk. Some people looked at her strangely, gave her a weak smile, and danced away.
Draco noticed Ginny was dancing sloppily. Ginny danced away from the crowd like a stray cat and stumbled over to the chair where Draco was sitting. "C'mon Harry, let's dance...." She laughed and grabbed Draco's wrist.
Draco yanked away. "Ginny? You okay?" It was wierd calling her "Ginny", but it was no time for calling her a Weasel. She was drunk!
"Of course I am, Harry. What do you think, I'm st-st-uuuupid?" She gripped his wrist again. This time her hand was wet from sweat.
"For getting drunk so easily, hell yes I do think so!" He took her wrist with his own hand. "Ginny, how much sake did you drink?"
"Uhhhhh, haha, that's funny. I...don't....know!" She snorted letting her loose hair fall messily over her perspiring face. "Aren't you gonna dance?" She started to sway now.
Draco stood up and gripped her wrist fiercely. "Okay, Weasley, you're so fucking drunk." He started to lead her to the mansion.
"Wait...Harry...aren't we going tooooooo...eh...dance?" She stumbled.
"No. And fuck, would you stop calling me Harry Potter? I'm NOT him!" He scolded. Although, he knew that wouldn't change her. Her vision was too blurry to see who he actually was.
Ginny giggled. Not her normal giggle though. Some high shriek-y laugh that was painful to Draco's ears. "Of course it's you, Harry. I love youuu!" She collapsed to the ground. "I love you!" She held up her arms to drag down Draco with her. Draco was stronger than that and pulled Ginny up to her feet. Ginny wrapped her hands around Draco's shoulder. "Kiss me, Harry. It's all I want..."
She inched her face near Draco's, almost catching his lips. The strong smell of sake went up Draco's nostrils. He harshly pushed her away from him. It sent her a few yards away from him, stumbling to her feet and landing on her bottom side.
"Harry?" Ginny recovered to her feet. "Why don't you love meee?" The tears started to well up in her brown eyes.
Draco walked toward her, and wrapped his arms around her shoulders. "You're going to faint any second now, Gin." He whispered in her ear. Ginny sleepily look into his pale eyes. "I am...?" Then, rested her head on his chest. She draped her arm over his shoulder, and Draco sighed.
He carried her up to the mansion and to his room. He thought of bringing her to her own room, but she might wake up in the middle of the night and start vomiting. He was only caring because...well...why was he caring for Ginny? Ginny coughed every now and then as Draco carried her to his room. His knees felt weak because even though she was pretty light, he was pretty tired from everything that happened tonight. The mansion was disturbingly silent when he entered, except for Ruki who was dusting the statues.
When Draco planted her on his bed, she coughed. "Ooooo" She groaned, and started giggling. Draco covered her mouth with his hand. "Shhhh, anyone can hear you if you don't shut that damn mouth of yours."
He heard Ginny gag, and cough a bit more. "Uh-oh." He picked her up and ran her to his bathroom. He tilted her head toward the toilet, and his timing was perfect. She started to vomit. The smell of liquor filled the bathroom. After about what must've been five minutes of vomiting, Ginny flushed the toilet, and rolled on her backside. Her face was a major mess. She had vomit at the rim of her lips and the auburn strands were wet and messy. She moaned in pain.
She didn't notice Draco standing in the doorway, looking down at her in pity. Ginny sniffed. Draco took a towel and soaked it with cold water as Ginny sulkily laid down by the toilet. Draco patted her head with the cool towel.
"Draco?" Ginny asked weakly.
"Yeah?"
"What happened?"
"You got drunk and passed out." He wiped the vomit off her face. "You had too much sake." He was softening and he did not like that one bit. "You're pathetic!" he added.
Ginny looked too worn out to listen to his insults. Instead she asked him a pointless question. "Was it good?" She clutched his wrist.
Okay, that was really random."Erm… Sure." He was suprised by her calm response. But not too much, since she was drunk. He tried to release her grip on his hand.
"Okay...." And she closed her eyes. Her hand loosened anyway.
Draco still smelled the vomit and opened the bathroom window. He picked her up, deciding to put her in her own room. He was not going to deal with her all night.
Frustrated for taking her in anyway, he dumped her on her bed, not bothering to cover Ginny's curvy body figure. He was about to flick off her lamp when he heard Ginny roll over. He looked at her bed and Ginny's body was half on the bed. The other half of it was about to slide off. Her soft snores echoed, and it seemed half of her hair was on her face. He couldn't stand looking at it. With his strong arms, he picked her up and placed her in the middle of the bed, and wiped the strands that were in her face to hook it behind her ears.
Her face looked peaceful in her sleep. Those eyelashes were long, he noticed. He tried to imagine Ginny Weasley with black hair, brown hair, or wait...even the hair color of his own. But nothing matched her face. For many years he had made fun of the Weasley's hair, but it'd be worse if Ginny had black hair. He heard Aunt Libbian laugh from outside the mansion, which interrupted his thoughts.
"Why the fuck am I thinking about this anyway?" He muttered to himself and flicked off the lamp.
* * * *
"Ginny-san!" The next morning, Ginny felt a cool hand on her cheeks. She fluttered her eyes open, awakening to a big pair of brown luminous eyes almost by her nose.
"Huh?" Ginny blinked. The sun rays pounded against her eyelids. She squinted. Her head was pounding hard.
"Thank goodness your awake!" Ruki stood up and put her hands on her waist. "You look so pale! Take a bath and be down to breakfast in 'wenty minutes..."
"Um, okay." Ginny sat up as Ruki walked out of the room.
She sat up, stretching to the ceiling and yawning wearily. "What about the cermony?" She asked herself, noticing the morning sky from her window. The cherry blossom was laying on the dresser next to her. Which was what Aunt Libbian had given her for the ceremony. The visions of drinking the sake dawdled through her mind.
Her head was having a strong migrain. It finally hit her of what had happened yesturday. She remembered vomiting and somebody pressed a nice, cool towel against her forehead. It felt really nice, and she fainted against someone. With strong arms, the person picked her up and carried her somewhere. She didn't remember exactly where, but he or she must've carried her all the way back to her room.
She twisted the faucet letting steamy water splash against her aching body. How relieving. Ginny lathered her hair with the lilac scented shampoo.
After her bath, a skirt with frilly flowers designed on it were hanging on the bathroom door. "oooo, my clothes are prepared for me everyday!" There was a white blouse to compliment with it. She slid it on, and the skirt went down to her ankles. The blouse showed her curves just like the kimono from yesturday. Her round chest filled the blouse's space. "These are getting too big!" She said with half excitement and half disapointment.
When she stepped out of the bathroom, Ruki already had the comb and chopsticks in her hand. Ginny, like a machine, sat on her chair staring at the reflection of herself in the mirror. Ruki styled Ginny's hair into a messy bun, with skilled hands and left a couple of strands hanging loose.
The birds crooned from outside. It filled the awkward silence as Ruki combed through Ginny's soft lilac-scented hair.
"Ruki?"
"Yes, Ginny-san?"
"Did you see me at all last night?"
"Uh, I suppose so. While dusting at around 10:30, Draco walked through the main room carrying you in his arm. But don't worry, I have not told Libbian about your secret business...." Ruki-san shot Ginny a suspicious smirk.
Ginny blushed. "What?"
Ruki smiled, showing all her teeth. "I did not know you and Draco were very fond of each other. I should've seen it..."
"Me and that--that--witty boy! NO WAY! I DID NOT KNOW HE WAS CARRYING ME AT ALL!" Ginny panted.
Ruki jumped back a few centimeters. "Oh...really?" She raised an emotionful eyebrow. "Okay...."
"I'm so sorry, Ruki."
"It's okay, m'dear. I forgive very easily. Breakfast will be ready in three minute. Do me a favor and be down there on time. Takeru is waiting to meet you and Draco. Takeru is also time-limited, so do not waste it for him." Ruki walked out of the room.
