Chapter: 3
Ordering two butterbeer's, Ginny and Olga dropped their bags, and sat down at an empty table in the corner of The Three Broomsticks. "By the way love the tiara." Ginny told her friends as their drinks arrived.
" Oh! This ol' thing?!" Olga laughed waving her hand. "What can I say? I thought that they'd like it if I showed some House pride. Although, I did get a lecture from Hermione."
"Figures. She." Ginny's sentence was abruptly cut short by the sound of two masculine voices asking, "Are these seats taken?"
Both girls slowly turned to find Blaise Zambini and Draco Malfoy. "Of course not." Olga said after a few seconds. The two young men instantly took their seats; Blaise by Olga and Draco by Ginny.
"So. You're from America, right?"
"Yep. Just a good ol' American girl."
"You don't sound American." The two girls instantly burst out laughing.
"What? What did I say?"
"Sorry." Olga choked out, slowly quelling her laughter. "It's just that Gin said the same thing."
As Blaise and Olga launched into their own conversation, Draco stared at Virginia intently. The blonde's gaze made the young girl rather uneasy. He seemed to be looking straight through her right into her soul. "Do you hate me?"
The sudden sound of his voice made Ginny jump. "What?"
"Do you hate me?"
The red head shook her head, "No. No, I don't hate you."
"Why?" the idea that a girl that he had teased for years didn't hate him was bewitching.
"How can I hate you? Draco, I don't even know you."
He was silent for a moment before asking, "Would you like to get to know me?"
"Yes. I think I would. And if it turns out that you are someone I hate then at least we'll piss Ron off in the process."
"Works for me. It's always fun." The rest of his sentence was lost when Blaise interrupted.
"Hey guys. I'm gonna show Olga around the castle so she won't get lost on Monday. Wanna come?" Behind Blaise, Olga was waving her hands, shaking her head, and mouthing 'NO!' frantically.
"I think we'll pass Blaise." Draco answered eyeing Olga strangely. In return she clasped her hands in front of her and mouthed 'Thank you!' over and over.
"Well ok. If you're staying I'll see you later. You ready Olga?" As he turned around, she dropped her hands and smiled up at him innocently. "Of course. Gin, I'll take the bags back with me, kay?"
"Yeah sure. Bye." Grabbing the bags Olga and Blaise left the pub with unusual speed. Turning back to Virginia, Draco looked rather perplexed.
"She likes Blaise?"
"Bingo. Olga likes him and hell couldn't stop that girl from getting what she wants."
"She's very.different."
"That's definitely the only word for her." Ginny smiled softly, sipping her butterbeer.
Draco opened his mouth to speak then closed it as he saw the 'Dream Team' enter the dark pub. "Perfect."
"What's wrong?" She asked looking up from her drink.
"Look who just dropped in."
Ginny's eyes snapped to the door to find her brother and his friends. "Potter. Just the thing to ruin a perfect day." Rolling her eyes she looked back at Draco.
"Wanna get out of here?"
"Thank you God!"
"That would be a yes?"
"Yes that would be a definant yes."
"Come on." Draco grabbed Ginny's hand pulling her up to stand next to him. Dropping a few sickles on the table for their drinks, they were able to leave the Three Broomsticks unnoticed by the 'Dream Team'. Stepping onto the cobbled street that lead through the center of Hogsmeade, the young witch and wizard began wandering with no particular destination in mind.
Then out of nowhere Draco broke the silence that had settled between the two. "I thought you idolized Potter."
"God no!" Ginny closed her eyes giving a dramatic shudder. "Sure I had a crush on him for a couple years but seriously, I must have been temporally insane or something. He basically lives at my house every holiday. He's nothing special, at all. Besides he hates potions, and in my opinion that's just wrong."
"I thought all Gryffs hated potions." Draco stated slightly amazed. Not realizing that he had yet to let go of her hand.
"If I was bad in potions do you think that Snape would have ever let my move up a year?" Ginny smiled up at her companion then looked away as they continued down the busy street. So she doesn't like Potter and she loves potions. What more could I ask for? Draco's thoughts were interrupted by a flash of lightning followed quickly by the clash of thunder. "We better start back to the castle." Draco mumbled in a disappointed tone.
"Yeah I guess we should." Begrudgingly they turned around and headed back to Hogwarts. They walked for several minutes in silence, trying to think of something, anything to talk about.
"So." Ginny mumbled.
"So." Draco kicked a rock with the tip of his shoe. "You don't like Potter?!" He asked, stopping and pulling her in front of him.
"What?! No! I already told you that. Why is this so important?"
"Because." For the first time in his life Draco Malfoy blushed. "Everything I have ever wanted from Quidditch to being Head Boy, he's gotten."
Ginny smiled coyly at the boy in front of her. "Are you saying that you want me?"
Taking a deep breath, trying to regain whatever courage he had. Draco managed to give a very firm answer of, "Yes."
"And pray tell, do you deserve me?"
"No." He whispered, gently swept a piece of fire red hair that fell from her braid out of her eyes, his hand lingering on her cheek. "I could never be worthy of you."
"Damn."
"What?"
"That was a really good answer."
The red head that stood before him looked at this moment more beautiful than anything he had ever seen. Her green eyes staring up at him expectantly, "Well are you going to kiss me or not?"
Draco didn't need to be told twice. Wasting no time the Slytherin pulled the small Gryffindor against him. Wrapping his arms around her small waist, Draco brought his lips against hers. Hesitantly at first but slowly deepening. Becoming a passionate, heart-stopping kiss. As if by their own accord Virginia's arms slipped around Draco's neck holding him in place. They kissed for what seemed like an eternity, but was truly only a few moments. As they parted the first drops of rain fell from the sky. All of a second later the clouds let loose and the rain thundered down.
"Typical! This is so freaking typical!" Ginny ranted as the droplets pelted her.
"Come on! We gotta get back!" Grabbing hold of her hand Draco and Ginny began running back to the castle.
A/N: Oh aren't I sweet, just when it's getting good! I'm working on the next chappie like right now. Sorry I'm watching Valley Girls so I'm totally stuck in the 80's, like I'm so sure. Sorry.again. Well R&R!
