Chapter 11: The Three Broomsticks

Ginny unfolded the piece of parchment she had found in her drawer of her nightstand. She looked at it, made sure it was the thing she was looking for, and it was. She read the spell out loud, and she instantly turned invisible.

She looked into the mirror just incase she was wrong, and sure enough, she was invisible.

She hurried from her dormitory making sure she had her wand to reverse the spell when she needed to. She also made sure she had money to buy what she needed when they arrived in Hogsmeade later that day.

"Until then," she giggled, talking to herself, "off to Draco's room."

Ginny hurriedly walked out of the fifth year girl's dormitories, down to the common room, and out the entrance hole.

She ran all the way to the Slytherin common room, and took deep breaths making her breathing steady.

"Pure blood," she said cooly, still a bit out of breath.

The portrait swung open instantly, and she walked directly to Draco's Prefect room. She read the familiar sign on the door, just to make sure it was his room, and not the Head Boy's.

Making sure it was his room, she pulled out her wand and whispered, "Alohomora." The door unlocked, and she slipped in the room quickly and quietly, and most importantly - not noticed by Draco.

She closed the door and locked it, and turned around to see Draco in the bathroom doing his hair and looking at his reflection in the mirror.

To Ginny's surprise (and delight!) he was wearing black boxers. Only black boxers.

'Wow,' Ginny thought, 'he looks good!'

She carefully and cautiously walked into the bathroom, and sat on the edge of the bathtub, looking up at him. She looked his body over.

'A six pack, nice!' she thought, obviously very impressed. He had broad shoulders and muscular arms. 'Nice build,' Ginny thought, 'VERY nice!'

Ginny's thoughts were a bit distracted by a sudden movement of Draco's. He had stepped forward, inches away from her.

She was frightened. 'Did the spell wear off? Can he see me? Can he hear me?' she thought, questions like these zooming around in her head over and over. She took a deep breath.

He suddenly leaning forward, stretched out his arm, and grabbed a bottle of gel that was on the table right next to where she was sitting. When he went back to the sink and mirror area, Ginny slowly let out her breath, and sighed in relief. Draco was running the gel through his freshly washed blond hair. He slicked it back, the same way he always did.

'Does he always look this sexy?!' Ginny asked herself. Without realizing it, she stood up, and walked over to where Draco was standing.

She whispered, "Mmmm, you look so good in boxers," in his ear. He jumped a little, but stayed where he was.

Ginny was standing in front of him now, still invisible. She rubbed her hands up and down his bare chest. "You have a REALLY nice body," she whispered again in his ear.

"Ginny, where are you?!" he asked.

"Shhh," she whispered. She muttered the counter curse, and immediately turned back to her normal self.

"You look wonderful!" Draco exclaimed.

She answered by kissing his neck and rubbing her hands all over his warm body. Draco groaned.

"You like that?" she asked with a seductive grin.

"Oh yea!" he replied.

Ginny giggled, and pulled herself closer to him, so that her body was touching his. "There's a whole lot more where that came from."

He raised his eyebrows, surprised, but delighted all the while. "I can't wait," he said with his trademark grin, and started kissing her neck.

Ginny leaned closer to Draco, pressing her body against his. Just when Draco thought he was going to get some, she whispered, "But you'll just have to wait," and with that, she pulled away.

"Oh, come on, Gin! You can't lead me on like that! That's not fair!" he said in disappointment.

"I'll do what I like, thank you very much," she said, flasking him a smile.

"You are very good at deceiving, Ginny Weasley, very good."

"Why thank you, Draco!" she said with a small laugh.

Draco sighed. "How long were you watching me for anyways?" he asked.

"About 10 or 15 minutes," she said after glancing at her watch. "Although you look wonderful wearing just boxers," she said, giving him a wink, "you can't go to Hogsmeade looking like that, so throw on some clothes, and let's go."

"Ok, hold on a minute," he said.

Ginny looked around the room as he got dressed. There were statues and pictures of dragons and snakes, as well as books and other pictures lining the walls.

In one corner of the room, he had a collection of broomsticks. She walked over to it, to get a closer look at the different ones he had. There was the entire collection of every type of Nimbus broomstick ever made, a Firebolt, as well as some other ones she didn't get a good chance to look at because Draco had walked over to her and said, "I'm ready."

"Ok, let's go," Ginny said. Draco took Ginny's hand in his, and they walked out of the room.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Here we are," Draco said as they entered Hogsmeade. "Let's go to the Three Broomsticks first."

"Ok, sounds great."

They walked into the pub hand in hand. Many heads turned as they walked in, and the pub went silent.

"May we help you?" Draco sneered while looking around at all the students staring at them. The students watching them turned around and continued their previous conversation.

"Jeez! It's like they've never seen a couple before!" Ginny exclaimed once she and Draco got settled in a corner booth.

"Don't mind them, they are too oblivious to the fact that we actually LIKE each other. They'll get over it, don't worry," he said reassuringly, "and if not, you still have me!"

Ginny laughed. "That's true."

Madame Rosmerta came over and asked, "Are you two ready to order?"

"Yes, we'll have two butter beers," Draco replied. She wrote down their order and walked away toward another table.

Ginny sighed, and scooted over closer to Draco. He put his arm around her. "Is something wrong?" he asked.

She sighed again. "Well, it's just that no one approves of our relationship. I don't really care what the students at Hogwarts say, but Hermione, Ron, and Harry strongly disapprove. I don't want this to end, I really do care about you. It's just that I wish everyone would be a little bit more supportive."

"I do, too," Draco said, rubbing her back, "but I have you, and that's all that matters to me."

"And I have you," Ginny said smiling, and gave Draco a long kiss on the lips.

"Here are your two butterbeers," Madame Rosmerta said.

"Thank you," Draco and Ginny said said at the same time.

"Your welcome," Madame Rosmerta said, and headed off to get orders from other customers.

Draco and Ginny sipped their butter beers while talking about quidditch and Christmas.

"What are you going to do over Christmas break?" Ginny asked.

"I'm going to stay at the castle this year. I can't stand another Christmas break with my father."

"Oh. You're welcome to come to The Burrow for Christmas, I'm sure my parents wouldn't mind," Ginny offered.

"Well, your parent's might not mind, but what about Potter, Granger, and your brothers? They hate me."

"Oh, right," Ginny said a bit disappointed. "I have an idea. How about I stay at the castle with you?! It would be so much fun!" Ginny exclaimed, and gave Draco a wink.

Draco smiled and said, "That'd be great!"

Draco gave Ginny a quick peck on the lips, but it wasn't enough for Ginny. She leaned in again, giving him a long, passionate kiss.

"Ehem," came a voice from behind them.

They stopped kissing and looked up. "Oh dear!" was all Ginny could say.
