Turmoil at Hogwarts



Chapter13-Speaking With the Enemy



Ginny slowly turned around and when she saw who had spoken she let out a sigh. "I don't see how it's any of your business, Draco Malfoy," Ginny replied.

"Were you out with that...that muggle?" Draco drawled.

"And what are you going to do if I said that I was with him?" Ginny asked, giving Draco a lethal look.

"I would tell you that you couldn't see him anymore," Draco said shooting her a look that was just as deadly.

"And who do you think you are, telling me who I can go out with? I don't care who you think I shouldn't go out with. You have no say over what I do!" Ginny yelled getting really angry now.

"I don't think you should see him anymore," Draco said.

"I really don't care what you think I should do, Malfoy!" Ginny screamed.

"I think that muggle is trouble, Ginny. And I don't want you to go out with him," Draco said.

"And you think you are a perfect judge of character? Look at who your friends at Hogwarts are. Gregory Goyle, Vincent Crabbe, and Pansy Parkinson! Do you think I should find people like them to hang out with? People like you? I think I can pick my own friends, Malfoy. I've got enough people looking out for me. I don't need you watching my every move," Ginny yelled. "Now, if you would kindly move, I would like to get away from you and your entirely unnecessary lectures."

"NO I will not move, at least not until you listen to what I have to say," Draco said and his anger was really starting to boil over since she had been insulting him.

"I don't want to listen to you. I'm done listening to your stupid lectures!" Ginny yelled and tried to push Draco out of the way because he was now blocking the door to her room.

Draco then quickly maneuvered himself so that he had her back pinned against the wall and he had a hold of her arms just above the elbows so that she couldn't move.

"Get your hands off me you despicable excuse for a wizard!" Ginny yelled.

"Not until you hear what I have to say." Draco replied. "The sooner you quit fighting me the sooner we'll be done."

Ginny tried to kick him, but Draco easily dodged her kicks. After a few seconds Ginny finally gave up and said, "Fine, what do you have to say."

"Well.." Draco began.

Ginny interrupted him and said, "Couldn't you at least let go of my arms?" Ginny asked.

"Not a chance. But we can go inside your room so that no one will see us talking," Draco said.

"Do you think they haven't already heard us fighting?" Ginny asked.

"I know they haven't." Draco said. "I put a soundproof spell on this hallway when I first started talking to you. I know you well enough that I knew you were going to throw a fit," Draco said with a big smirk on his face.

"I didn't throw a fit!" Ginny said.

"Sure you didn't." Now come on. Let's go in your room." Draco said and pulled her into the room, not letting go of her arms because he knew if he let go she would run out of the room, "which bed is yours."

Ginny tried to point to her bed but he still had her arms so she said, "It's the one on the right."

Draco led her over to her bed and pushed on her shoulders so that he would sit down on the bed. He asked, "Are you ready to listen now?"

"No. I don't really care to hear what your going to say," Ginny replied.

"Too bad. There is no way you are getting by. Just listen to me for a minute," Draco said and he laughed when she gave him a "hurry up and get it over with look". "Have you ever noticed the way that the muggle looks at you?"

"Yes, he looks at me like I'm important. Like I'm a real person, not just a pretty face," Ginny said.

"No, he doesn't. Not if you really look close. I saw the way he looked at you. He looked like he wanted to chew you up and swallow you. He's a lot older than you and he's more experienced." Draco said.

"He did not look at me like that and he's only seventeen. So what?" Ginny said.

'While you were dancing with him, he looked like he was going to pick you up, throw you over his shoulder, and carry you over to an empty room and have his way with you. That man want you, Ginny, whether you want to believe it or not. I'm a guy. I know that look that he had in his eye. I just want you to be careful. You're only fourteen. You are much to young to get involved with someone like him," Draco said.

"Are you done yet?" Ginny asked and yawned.

"Haven't you listened to a word I said? That muggle is TROUBLE. I can read it, it's written all over his face," Draco said.

"If that's all you have to say. Then you can leave now," Ginny said sternly.

"Has he ever acted jealous in anyway," Draco asked.

"NO," Ginny said, a little to quicly.

Draco knew that Aidan had said something to her and asked, "What did he do?"

"It's nothing. Just when I mentioned getting a present for Harry he got a little bit jealous," Ginny said.

"And," Draco asked impatiently.

"And nothing," Ginny replied.

"And," Draco repeated with even more frustration, "I'm not leaving until you tell me what else happened."

Ginny let out a huge sign and siad, "I don't know. I guess I don't feel that comfortable around him. He's...he's moving a little too fast for me."

"So don't see him anymore," Draco said.

"I probably have it all wrong. It's just...it doesn't feel like when I was..." Ginny said and then stopped herself.

"When you were what?" Draco asked.

"Well, when I was...with you," Ginny finished.

"Please don't see him again," Draco said.

"Why?" Ginny asked.

"Because I asked you not too," Draco said.

"I don't need to listen to you. You are not my boyfriend or anyting," Ginny said.

"You are right. But, I haven't forgotten about that night, and I know you haven't forgotten either." Draco said.

"So what. Nothing can come of it. You can't be my boyfriend. Hell, you can't even be my friend. All we can ever be is enemies," Ginny said.

"No. We could never be enemies, you and I." Draco said. "I guess we are just...acquaintances."

"I guess so." Ginny said. "When you go to dinner can you tell everyone that I'm not going to eat because I'm not feeling very well."

"Sure. You look a little pale. Are you really sick?" Draco asked.

"No, I've just got a lot on my mind." Ginny replied.

"Then I guess I'll leave you alone." Draco said. "Why don't you lay down and rest anyway? You don't look so good."

"Fine, Draco." Ginny said. "Goodbye."

"Goodbye." Draco said and he turned and walked out of the room.

When he was gone Ginny thought, "How can he make me so upset one minute and then make me wish that he would just shut up and kiss me the next? I really wish he would have kissed me before he left. And I really wish our families didn't hate each other. Why do things always have to be so complicated?"



A/N-Sorry it took so long to post this chapter. I've been really busy. In fact, I don't even have time to individually thank everyone today. If I don't post this now, who knows when I'll have time to upload it. Thanks for reading and hopefully reviewing. Oh, and please read Chapter 12 if you were confused about the last chapter. I uploaded the wrong thing. Sorry. I also wrote a new fic called The Journal of Dean Thomas. I'll try and update this fic soon, but I'm not going to make any promises because softball season officially starts tomorrow. I don't want to go to practice!



Thanks to all of my reviewers! I don't have time to thanks everyone individually because I have to leave, but thanks everybody!
