A/N- Hello again! I hope you liked that last chapter. Sorry it took so long! Here's another chapter! Remember- keep reviewing, thanks a bunch!

Chapter 11-

(Now, rewind to Saturday morning, and hit play.)

"Hermione, Hermione, wake up!"

Hermione heard someone talking to her in a hushed whisper, and she felt herself being shaken by her shoulder.

"Wha- what is it?" Hermione sat up, and rubbed the sleep out of her eyes. Then she saw who was kneeling next to her bed.

"Malfoy!" Hermione said in a hushed, yet firm voice, "What are you doing here? What time is it?"

"It's," Draco looked at his watched, "three fifteen in the morning. I'm here to help you."

"How can you help me? You're the one who brought me here!"

"That's where you're wrong. I didn't bring you here. Heck, I don't even want to marry you! No offense, that is."

"None taken. If you don't want to marry me then how come I'm here?"

"It's a long story."

"Well, since its three fifteen, we have a long time until everyone else is up. Start talking."

(A/N- READ THIS! Here I am going to start flashbacks. That's plural, so at the beginning of each flashback I will let you know when it is. I'm doing this because it will be easier than having Draco have a long speech.)

"Okay, it all started at the beginning of last year. . ."

*~*Flashback*~*

(On the Hogwarts Express, the beginning of fifth year.)

"Oh, sorry, I didn't know anyone was in here."

"No, it's alright, you can stay if you would like to, I don't mind. I don't think there are any empty compartments left."

"Oh, okay."

"So, Draco, how was your summer?"

"It was alright I guess. Wait, why did you call me by my first name? I thought you would despise me like your brother does." (Can you guess who the other person is yet? Hehe)

"I don't think that you should hate someone just because they are in a different house than you. People misjudge others just because of what they hear about them. I'm not like that, I bet that they would all like you if they got to know you."

"But what about all the stuff I have said about your family?" (You had better know who it is now.)

"I think that you were just putting on a show for your friends. Maybe I am wrong, but I would like to get to know you better."

"Alright then, Ginny." (GASP! Lol!)

*~*New Flashback*~*

(End of Fifth year, Platform 9 ¾)

"Goodbye, Ginny. I hope that you'll still be my friend next year."

"Of coarse I will be. Remember to send me owls. I'll see you next year." Ginny said as she pulled Draco into a friendly hug. "Goodbye." Then Ginny grabbed her trunk and walked toward her family.

*~*New Flashback*~*

(End of the summer- a week before school starts.)

An owl flies into Ginny's bedroom as she is making her bed.

'Finally, another owl from Draco.' Ginny thought as she opened the letter. As she reads it a smile steadily grows on her face.

Dearest Ginny,

I'm so sorry for not writing in a while. I do enjoy reading your letters though. I would like to thank you for not judging me based on what hear, and for getting to know me. No one has ever done that before. I know that in doing this I am putting our friendship at risk, but I can't help myself. Ginny, would you be my girlfriend? We don't have to tell anyone you don't want to tell. Please write back soon.

With love, Draco.

Ginny quickly gets out a quill and a piece of paper and writes her response.

Dear Draco,

I really don't know what to say. Well, except for, yes, I will be your girlfriend. It will be hard considering our families, but we can work through it. I cannot wait until we go back to school and I can see you. Continue writing, and I will see you soon.

With even more love, Ginny

*~*New Flashback*~*

(Hogwarts Express, beginning of sixth year, fifth for Ginny.)

"Draco! I've looked in almost every compartment for you!" Ginny exclaimed as she ran over to hug Draco in the empty compartment she found him in.

"Hello to you too, Ginny." Draco said chuckling. "How was your summer?"

"It was okay, but I was looking forward to seeing you again." Ginny said as she placed herself on Draco's lap. "How was your summer?"

"Same old, same old. This has got to be the only year I actually looked forward to coming back to school."

"Oh, because of little old me?"

"No, because of Potter." Draco said sarcastically. Ginny's face then became serious.

"Draco, if you want me to be your girlfriend then you have to learn to respect my friends and my family as well. That means no rude comments, calling them by their first names, and not getting into arguments with them. Alright?"

"Okay, I'll try for you."

"Thanks so much. It means a lot to me."

*~*New Flashback*~*

(First day of winter break, present year.)

"Ginny, I have to leave tomorrow. I won't be coming back."

"But, why?"

"I am supposed to get married to Hermione. You see, it is an arranged marriage and I don't even want to marry her, she's not the one I love."

"Who is the one you love?" Ginny asked with tears streaming down her face. She didn't want Draco to leave.

"You. If there was one person I had to marry, it would be you. I can't stand not having you with me."

"Draco, I love you too. I don't want you to leave!" Ginny threw herself at Draco and he caught her, pulling her into a huge hug.

"I will find a way to come back. I promise you. I will find a way."

*~*End of Flashbacks*~*

"I never knew that you and Ginny were together." Hermione said shocked.

"That's the way we wanted it for then. We were planning to tell you all on Christmas."

"But if you don't want to marry me, how come I am here right now?"

"My father would not let me marry Ginny; he thinks their family is a disgrace to the wizarding world. Even thought you are not a pure-blood your family is very wealthy. My father wanted us to get married, then after a few months he would stage your death, that way we would get a lot of your money. We would keep you here, working as a servant. I don't want that to happen, all I want is to go back to Ginny, like I promised. My father kidnapped you after drugging your drink. I had no knowledge of what he was doing. I thought that after you announced you were getting married to Harry he would leave you be and I could go back to Ginny."

"Well, that is all fine and dandy, but how can you help me?"

"I am going to sneak to Hogwarts and tell Harry where you are and how to get you. While I am gone I will not be able to keep my father from you and the other girls, so you will have to be careful. I'm going to go now; I'll let you know when I am back. Goodbye." Draco made his way to the door.

"Goodbye Draco."

A/N- I know this chapter is very short, but I wanted to stop here so that I could start with Harry and Draco in the next chapter. Thanks for reading, please continue to review! I would like to have around 5 new reviews by the time the next chapter is up. -meg
