"Weasley."
A shudder ran down Ginny's spine as she turned her head. Behind the bookcase
stood Draco Malfoy, his face half hidden amongst the shadows.
"What?" she answered coldly.
He emerged from the back of the library, and walked over to where Ginny was
sitting. His footsteps echoed on the cold stone floor. There was no one else
around - the library was dead.
He stood in front of Ginny for a few seconds. He kept opening and shutting his
mouth, searching for words. His expression looked strange...Ginny had never
seen that look on his face before. If she didn't know Draco better, she
would've said that it almost looked apologetic. When he'd decided that he was
lost for words, he shrugged. His expression completley changed, his mouth
twisted into a nasty grin, and his voice dripped with sarcasm as he said -
"I just came over to wish you goodnight, dear Virginia. Sleep well."
He turned on his heel, and his facial expression turned into a frustrated frown
before it went out of Ginny's sight. He stormed out of the library, and the way
the door slammed after him told her that a goodnight wish had actually been the
last thing on Draco's mind when he came over.
Her eyes went down to her work, and before dipping her quill in the inkpot
again, a very quick smile of triumph flitted across Ginny Weasley's face.
