AN Okay, I forgot to put an author's note at the end of last chappy, but oh well. Not much to say now, except that this is the fifth chapter I've put out today, so you better all love me!

Disclaimer: I DISCLAIM EVERYTHING EXCEPT DANICA AND MY STORY LINE.DON'T STEAL IT!

Ginny woke up early on Christmas morning, because Danica was shaking her excitedly.

"Gin, Gin! You have to get up RIGHT NOW! You have some VERY SPECIAL Christmas presents from some VERY SECRET, SPECIAL PEOPLE waiting for you!"

"Uhhnmmmwait, I'm awake, I'm awake! Geez, back off, Dani. I will be up in a second." Ginny stood up, stretched, yawned, and then sped out the dorm door.

"PRESENTS!" she yelled, pouncing onto a sofa, then jumping up, and grabbing the pile of parcels with her name on top.

"Don't forget to be excited, Gin" said Hermione, the sarcasm dripping from her voice.

"Hey, Ginny, how about you open your gifts first?" said Ron, as he and Harry stumbled down the boys staircase.

"Okay.let's see, here's Hermione's gift! Oh, 'Mione, the dress robe is beautiful! Purple is my favorite color! Oh, here's Dani's gift.wow, a new bottle of color changing ink! Wicked! And Ron's.a quill.thanks I think. Here's Harry's.wow, Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans! And a gift certificate for a Butterbear every Hogsmeade weekend from the Three Broomsticks. This is too cool! And of course, Mum's gift.ah, a green Weasly sweater, with a tin of fudge included.she's outdone herself once again! Well, I think that's it.no, wait, here's one more," she said, as she picked up a small package, that had a card attached to the top.

"Okay. I'll open the gift first, then read the card.wow.who would send me this? It's much too expensive.I don't deserve a golden heart locket.well, let's see who it's from.Dear Ginny. I hope you like the locket. I know I've never given you a gift before, but that was because I was afraid you'd get mad and sic one of your brothers on me. But now, I'm not afraid any more, and I want to shout from the rooftops that I am in love with you. I love Ginny Weasly. I love you! And I can only hope that you return these feelings, because I don't know what I would do if you didn't. I can only hope and pray you will come to me. Love Always.Draco Malfoy."

Ron took one look at Ginny and passed out.

That night at Christmas dinner, Ginny and Ron were having a heated argument.

"The little PRICK! How dare he toy with my little sister's feelings? I ought to beat the living TAR out of him!"

"Ron. Have you ever thought that maybe I DO return his feelings?"

"Ginny. Have you forgotten? He's a MALFOY! You're a WEASLY! That's reason enough to assume that you hate his guts!"

"Well, I guess you've never heard that assuming makes an ass out of you and me."

"What?"

"Never mind, I didn't expect you to understand. But, I love the locket, that is why I am wearing it. And, I love him, even though I have had trouble admitting it to myself, and that is why I am going to go over to him right now and let him know!"

"No you are not!"

"I would like to see you try and stop me!" she shouted, as she got up and walked towards Draco.

***

Draco felt a tap on his shoulder. As he slowly turned around, he saw a flash of red. It was Ginny.

"Yes?"

"Draco, I believe that you sent me this necklace?"

"Yes, I did.do you like it?"

"Draco, I love it. But more than that, I love you. And I hope someday that we can put our picture in it. Please, tell me that you want to be with me forever, and I will never turn my back on you. Promise that you will love me unconditionally, that you will ignore what our families say, and that you will never leave me. I wish I could say that if you do these things, that I will give you my heart forever, but I am afraid you have already stolen it."

"And you, mine. I love you Ginny, and I think that we were meant for eachother. Seeing you with Harry at the beginning of the year was enough to break my heart. But, when I realized that you and I were soulmates, I had no more worries."

With that, he stood up, wrapped her in his arms, and then kissed her on the cheek.

"But, I want to take our relationship slow. I don't want us to do anything we'll regret."

"Thank you, Draco. Thank you."

AN: WOOOHOOO! THEY"RE IN LOOOOVEEEEE! L is for the way you look at me, O is for the only one I see, E is very, very Extraordinary, E is even more than anyone that you adore..LOL. Teehee.
