Question of time
Depeche mode
I've got to get to you first
Before they do
It's just a question of time
Before they lay their hands on you
And make you just like the rest
I've got to get to you first
It's just a question of time
Well now you're only fifteen
And you look good
I'll take you under my wing
Somebody should
They've persuasive ways
And you'll believe what they say
It's just a question of time
It's running out for you
It won't be long
Until you do
Exactly what they want you to
I can see them now Hanging around
To mess you up
To strip you down
And have their fun
With my little one
It's just a question of time
It's running out for you
It won't be long
Until you do
Exactly what they want you to
It won't be long
Until you do
Exactly what they want you to
Sometimes I don't blame them
For wanting you
You look good
And they need something to do
Until I look at you
And then I condemn them
I know my kind
What goes on in our minds
It's just a question of time
It should be better
It's just a question of time
It should be better with you
It's just a question of time

He's been dreaming of her again! The dream was not the same. She was in bed with him and for the first time in his life he felt free. Draco knew it must have been love, but who was she? He didn't remember the color of her hair neither her face. The only thing he remembered was the smell and how smooth her skin felt beside his.
He was remembering his dream, daydreaming in Snape's class, about a girl he never knew or saw before. It was plain craziness! She had to be a Slytherin! And a pure blood otherwise, even if it was love, he would just let her past as one of his toys. He didn't need a Gryffindor! Why was he thinking about the Gryffindors? Probably because Hermione was talking... again! That know-it-all mudblood was not better them him.. Men did he hate her! His thoughts where disturbed by Snape. He was asking a question to Draco... And well Draco being daydreaming didn't hear him... He know he was in trouble now!
_ " Sorry? I didn't understand the question. Could you please repeat it?"
_ " Why is that , mister Malfoy?"
_ " I was listening Hermione talking ,here and well, my mind trail off."
_ " Ah! Well I know miss Granger is boring but you have to listen. 5 point off for Slytherin. The question was, in the potion we are making, what is the next ingredient?"
_ " It's powderpluff!"
_ " Good, 5 point for Slytherin!"
_ " But sir ! It's not.."
_ " It's not what miss Granger? Fair? 50 point off for Gryffindor!"
*~*
The day was good for Draco, everything was on his side. The only problem, he was worried about something. He hadn't seen Ginny for 4 days, plus Ron look upset by something. Harry was more nervous then usual. He was wondering if Ginny had got the virus. In the Gryffindor tower, there was a virus that was going around and at this state only the girls were infected. In a way he wanted to know but didn't want Harry or Ron knowing what he was up to. So he had a plan. He decided to go "talk" to Ron and Harry.
_ " Ron I understand your sister is sick. What did you do? Try to kiss her? I understand the poor thing to be sick, just the sight of you is sickening. You know, if you try to kiss Hermione, maybe she will get sick too, you're a disease."
On those words, Ron lunch at Draco, hitting him right on the nose, making it crack in a weird sound. Draco was so furious, he didn't even notice that he was bleeding. He was seeing red, hitting Ron right on the jaw making it crack too. Furiously, Ron lunch back at Draco, not hearing Harry telling them to stop. Harry decided to take action but he didn't have time, Ron hit Draco so hard that he fell to the floor while Snape was turning the corner, seeing everything.
_ "What is happening here?" " live it! I don't want to know it! 50 point off for Gryffindor and 15 point off for Slytherin." " Harry, Dumbledore want to see you and you two go to the infirmary and I want you in my class after school for the rest of the week."
Harry went up to see Dumbledore, wondering what he wanted.
*~*
_ " Hello, sir! You want to see me?"
_ " Yes Harry! You may sited. I'm afraid I have a bad news and a good news for you." Said Dumbledore with a sorry face
_ " What's the good news?"
_ " We know how to cure the girl from the Gryffindors tower. It seems that some from this school has put a curse. We have an idea who it is but we're not sure.
_ "What the bad news?"
_ " Well, you see, we'll need some of your blood to mix it with Draco Malfoy's blood"
_ " ok, I don't want to be rude but I'm willing to give my blood. What's the problem?.. Is Malfoy going to give blood?"
_ " Yes he is.. That's not the problem. We don't know how much we'll need of your blood."
_ " Sir, I ready to do anything. Even if it means risking my life.. .. You should know that more then anyone, sir."
_ " I know that Harry, But life does put you threw thing you don't need to say yes to. Your life is been more then enough troubled, you didn't need what's going on with the girls of your house. I would understand if you didn't want."
_ " Oh, but sir, I ready to give blood if it helps her.. .. I mean them."
To those word, Dumbledore smiled. He knew about who was talking Harry and Harry knew that Dumbledore knew about he's love for Ginny.

7 days before.. .. ..
_ " Oh Hermione! I don't feel so good!"
_ " C'mon Gin, you know as well as me that you got classes today! C'mon Up, Up, Up!!!!"
_ " Oh! please!!! I don't really feel well.. I want to sleep!.. I don't feel good!
_ " That's enough! UP!!! " screamed Hermione. She had enough of Ginny moody temper. It's been week since she felt like that and Herm had to drag her out of bed just to get her to eat a little.
_ " Stop!!!! I had enough, christ! Shut up.. Just shut up!!!!" Screamed Ginny. She had enough of Herm being in her face. Could she just do her thing and leave her alone? No she couldn't.. She had be her big sister, thought sarcastically Gin. " Get off my back, shit!"
_ " Don't talk to me like that! I not going to take it!"
_ " Well if you don't want me to talk like that.. Get of my back, shit, I don't need you to be my sister.. ! Fuck!" Said Ginny getting out of bed.
Hermione didn't say anything but turned on her heels and got out of the bedroom with a big " bang" of the door. She got down stairs to meet with the boys but Harry said he wanted to wait for Ginny. Ron and Herm went down to eat, leaving poor Harry alone.. Gin got down 15 minutes later in a moody, angry temper.
She had change! The little girl was teenager who was turn her back to the society of the wizard world. She had enough of being good.. For the people who surround her, she had change for the worst. She was rebellious and if she could, she would .. .. She couldn't say how far she would go.. That thought scared her.. What if..? Nan she couldn't be like Draco.. or was she going that way? No she'd had been put in Gryffindors, it was not for nothing. She was tired of being herself.. she was tired of being a little nobody.. she was tired of being friends with THEM. She had to find someone who could understand her and her needs, but first she had to go to class and get something to eat .. she was hungry for a first.. it's been weeks since she did not eat in the morning. She end up AGAIN with Harry and his crew.. She promised herself it was the last time she was with THEM .. .. Now she had to find people to get along with.
*~*
3 days before.. .. ..
Little by little she was turning her back on Hermione and her brother but Harry was always in her way. Men! She hated him so much ! Always in her way when she wanted to get away from them. He was there when she didn't talk to them, asking if she was alright.. Damn he was bugging her! One day.. .. ..
_ " Will you just let me go? Fuck I don't need you bugging me all the time!"
_ " I didn't mean bugging you. It's just that you've been weird, and, well.."
_ " No wells!!! I don't want to hear it! Just get out of my face! Understand?"
_ " Yes I do.. .. I do understand.." said Harry. He had a look in his eyes that was killing her.. she knew she had hurt him with these words but she had enough of him.. He left looking at his feet and trawling his feet on the floor.
Now, that he wouldn't be there all the time, she could do what she wanted. She could go see Draco.. .. .. It's weird he didn't come to bug her this week.. hi hi hi.. He must be scared of her.. Nan!!! .. .. .. Ouch!! Arg!!! She didn't feel so well anymore.. She thought of going to the infirmary but she lost consciousness, the pain was overwhelming..
*~*
Harry coming back on his step, found Ginny lying there on the floor motionless. Getting scared, thinking of what could have happen to her, he brought Ginny to the infirmary. But miss Pomfrey was not there. She had to run after all the others Gryffindors who had fall unconscious everywhere in the school. What was happening? It was only the girls of Gryffindors who where getting sick. McGonagall was there helping, but nothing could be done.. .. .. It was a curse that had been put on the girls. Ginny and all the knew girls at Hogwarts, the ones who was poor in magic. Harry didn't understand why Ginny was there.. .. She was usually good.. and not poor in magic. Then he thought about all those changes Ginny was going through, maybe it had manages to change the magic she had? He was worried about her. He couldn't never tell her that he loved her, he would be rejected by Ginny and that would be the end of his world.
*~*
2 days after.. .. ..
_ " Hi! How are you?"
_ " I'm fine, thanks. And you?"
_ " Well that blood.. .. .. I feel tired."
_ " You'll be ok, I know it, Draco."
_ " Thanks Virginia!"
Ginny was the first to be wake up from the curse, but she was the last one to leave.. .. .. The curse had affected her more then the others so Miss Pomfrey decided to keep her in the infirmary, where she was place right beside Draco. It's been 3 days that she was talking to him.. She find he nice and wanted to know more about him but she was reticent to give him her games card right now. She wasn't in total confidence with Draco, she knew little of him and was afraid to give him more than he deserved. They had nothing to do all day so they sleep or talk. What she didn't know was that when she was asleep, Draco was looking at her. Her little body moving against the sheets, her hair in her face. Sometime when he would wake up in the night, he would walk to her and took a lock of her hair and move it to see her face better. Yes he did feel love for her but how could that have happen? He would never really let her see that he couldn't.. .. His mother wouldn't approved and his father would kill her. He had to be rude to her.. .. Each time he had thought of that, during those 3 days they were together, she would look at him in this way that was.. .. .. It was paradise on earth. What was going to happen if he would ever tale this to the next level? He knew the answer and he didn't want that to happen to her. He had to leave her alone.. .. if only she could do the same.. ..
A/S As you could see, it took me a little bit long to finish it.. I had a writers block. Now to the demand of the reviewers it longer.. .. Hope you like the story! Now to go with the reviews
Nightingale Moon:- I know that Ginny is not like that but remember she's 15 years old and she's tired of being who she is, life has put her in a place where bad is good and where good is bad.. Just remember that. I do hope you still like the story and that you will still read it.
Jali:- Thank you for your support. It's nice to know that you like my story. I hope you will continue reading and still enjoy yourself.
