Whoopwhoop! Chapter 3! I want to say thanks first to all the people who have reviewed. Just reading them really makes my day! Sorry that the chapters are really short so far. Just trying to cut to the chase here instead of beating around the bush. I think someone mentioned something about the cliffhanger ending. Well, just to warn you, I LOVE CLIFFIES. So be prepared! ~Dragonfires

************** "In the car, I just can't wait, To pick you up on our first date, Is it cool if I hold your hand? Is it wrong if I think it is lame to dance? Do you like my stupid hair? Would you guess I didn't know what to wear? I'm just scared of what you think. You make me nervous, so I really can't eat.

Let's go. Don't wait. This night's almost over Honest, let's make This night last forever Forever and ever Let's make this last forever Forever and ever Let's make this last forever." ~ 'First Date'- Blink 182

Draco took Ginny's offered arm, and they made their way out of Honeyduke's. They made there way through Hogsmede, and then went to the Little Phoenix Pub. It was a cozy little place that wasn't very crowded and served decent meals. After seating Ginny, Draco sat in his own and pulled a piece of paper from his pocket.

"Okay, well your friends gave us an itinerary. So I guess we should see what they have to say," he said, and then he began to read aloud. "Number One, Go to the Three Broomsticks or the Little Phoenix Pub. Well, I guess we can check that one off. Number Two, Draco, you pay. Understandable. And we'll get to the rest of the stuff later."

Ginny raised an eyebrow at the "and we'll get to the rest of the stuff later," but she let him continue.

"Um," he said. "Harry said that you had a list of questions or something?"

"Oh yea," Ginny fumbled in her purse and brought out a sealed envelope. On it was written in large letters was "Do Not Open Until Seated."

"Well I guess we can open it then."

"Sounds fine to me."

"Okay, I think Lavender gave use each a copy. Now, Number One, Tell what are some of your favorite things." Draco wrinkled his nose in disgust. "My God, am I the only one that thinks these questions are idiotic and pointless."

"Nope," said Ginny. She grabbed Draco's copy and hers and threw them both into a nearby fireplace. "Voila! No more idiotic or pointless questions."

"Brilliant for a Weasley," he retorted. Ginny chose to ignore the insult.

She posed a question, "So, what kind of torture did Harry and Seamus put you through?"

"All types of crap! I was forced into these revolting dress robes, made to wear my hair loose, and given *ahem* men talks."

She smiled. "Men talks? What's that?"

"Oh trust me, you don't want to know."

"I wouldn't ask you if I didn't want to know."

"Oh stuff like what are the best snog spots at Hogwarts, the dangers of eating garlic, breath mints, who patrols which corridor, and such."

Ginny laughed at the thought of Harry and Seamus talking to Draco of all people about that.

"Hey!" he said. "That isn't funny!"

"Yes it is. So what flavor?"

"What the hell...?"

"Breath mints. What flavor are they?"

"Err..."he pulled it out of his pocket, "cinnamon."

"My favorite."

"I'm going to choose to ignore that comment."

"Ignore it as you may, but cinnamon is my favorite flavor. Must have something to do with the hair."

Draco shrugged as the can-can dancers filed onto the small stage that was set up inside the pub. He had met the lead girl, Nicole, a few times, and she had told him there would be a show tonight. After the show, Ginny and Draco finished their meals, continued to banter for a while, then left.

"So how is it being on top in Slytherin all of the time?" asked Ginny. She threw a rock into the lake and watched as it skipped.

"It's okay really. Technically I'm not really on top."

"But you're their Seeker and..."

"Their Seeker who has never won a single game for them."

"But you have won plenty of times against Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff!"

"Okay, let me rephrase my statement~ I am their seeker who has never won a single game that counted."

"I never did get why there was so much competition between our two Houses."

"It is because Salazar and Godric always fought."

"But shouldn't it be ancient history now?"

"I guess the Houses have hung on to it as a way of being loyal to their Founder."

"Okay, well, I need to get back up to the castle. Ron is going to kill me if I don't get up there soon."

"Okay. Well, it was nice talking to you. We should do this again."

"Err...Draco? We have to do it again."

"Yea, right."

************* yay Nicole! You are a can can dancer!
