[Draco's POV]
She had to forgive me! All these gifts, they cost A LOT! I bought chocolates in a heart shaped box (I know, shudder....), a beautiful rose shaped sugar quill, a fancy silver bracelet, and the most magnificent pendant I could get my hands on in such short notice. A silver dragon was laced onto the complex studded chain. The dragons eyes were made of real sapphire and the fire out of actual rubies. The rest was just pure silver. Now, that cost me a pretty galleon.
I had the house elves wrap the whole shebang in shimmery silver tissue paper and tie it with a nice green ribbon on the top. I added a little note, saying I was sorry and all and then waited for my carrier.
My owl, Bathildas, flew into my window and dropped a letter onto my bed. I quickly tied Ginny's package onto her leg and opened the other letter, not giving instructions to Batty. It was from my father.
"Send it to..." I began scanning the letter.
'Draco,
Norman Parkinson's daughter has owled me this morning. She is complaining that you have not been paying enough attention to her. I strongly suggest you do so, to keep up appearances.
Your mother sends her best wishes.
-Lucius'
This letter was about Pansy? "PANSY!?" I shouted. I was too engrossed in the letter and did not see Bathildas fly off.

[Ginny's POV]
"Dear Journal,
Draco Malfoy is an arse! Today was the worst though. Colin and I were sitting outside and he comes over, holding a bouquet of lilies. My favorite flowers, you know. He talks to me and then all of the sudden I feel these little stings on my arms. MALFOY PUT BILLYWIGS INTO THE FLOWERS! I felt so embarassed as Colin dragged me to the infirmary. I almost lifted him off the ground but we got to Madam P's right before I did.
God, Malfoy is just such a prat. I HATE DRACO MALFOY.
Love,
Ginny'
I giggled. Write an entry in your diary about how you hate a person so much and than sign in 'Love, Ginny' like nothings happened. Oh well.
My stomach grumbled. I had missed dinner when I was in the infirmary. Looking at my clock, I decided to take the chance of getting caught by Filch to get something from the kitchens. I stood up, pulled on some fuzzy pink slippers and began my way out of tower. No one was in the Common Room, since it was almost 2 in the morning, and I slipped out unnoticed.
I was walking through the corridors when I stumbled into a set of armor. It clattered down and immediately Mrs. Norris was at the spot. I cursed and then ran to the nearest door and flew it open. A broom closet. Great choice. I leaned back, only to fall into the arms of a blonde Slytherin.
----------------------------------------
[Draco's POV]
Oh god, I have to get out of here. How did Pansy get the gifts? Ahh, help! There she is!
"Oh, Drakkie-wakkie! This is soo romantic!" she made to kiss me but I ducked.
"Pansy, there's been a mistake." I ran around the couch in the Common Room. She stood on the other side.
"No there hasn't Draco! We're meant to be!" she sighed dreamily and closed her eyes. I took this as a chance to escape. Bounding over to the Common Room door, I ran out and came face to face with the cold air of the dungeons. Running, I quickly went left, right, straight, anyway to get Pansy off my tail. HOW DID SHE GET THAT PACKAGE?
"Ahh, my sweet, we will get the students out of bed tonight." I heard a hoarse whisper coming from the corridor in front of me. I cursed under my breath and quickly opened the nearest door. A broom closet. Good going Draco. I sat on a bunch of boxes and waited till Filch left. Then, I figured, why would Pansy look in broom closets for me? I grinned and leaned back.
I jumped when I heard a clatter outside the door and then a "Shit!" and the door opened. A firery red head walked in and closed the door. She leaned back. It was Ginny Weasley. I smirked. My chance. The gods do love me!
"Go to the ball with me?" Or maybe they don't. For the second time today, I felt a sharp pain in my cheek. She hit me! Again!
"You prat!" Ginny whispered menacenly. I was actually a bit scared of her and I backed up. "Send me a hord of billywigs and than ask me to the ball? I don't think so!" She poked my chest. "You are an arse. A prick! A stupid, bloody, idiotic... Slytherin!" Now, I could either apologize and explain or strike back. Guess what I did.
"Well, Weasley, you're a..." I stopped. Twenty galleons and the benefit of rubbing it in Weasley's face or an insult? I decided choice one was better. "Er.. I'm sorry about that. I didn't mean for the bugs to be in there. I told Goyle to get some flowers and I guess he just picked them off the ground. I'm really sorry."
"Well, atleast I have friends!" She stopped. "What!?! Did you just.. apologize? Draco Malfoy... apologize?" She smacked me.
"Ow!" I yelped. She giggled.
"Sorry, just wanted to see if I was awake." I glared at her.
"You're supposed to hurt yourself. Not me." I growled.
"I did. My hand hurts now." She smiled and I rolled my eyes.
"Well, I'm sorry 'bout the flowers and stuff.. I bought you some stuff and wrote a note and stuff to apologize and I sent it with my owl but it accidently got to Pansy. I don't know how though."
"And your in here why?"
"Hiding from Pansy of course! I tried to explain that the gifts were for you, but she didn't listen. She kept.." I shuddered. "Trying to kiss me." She laughed again.
"So.." I began. "Want to go to the Halloween Ball with me?" She looked up at me.
"No." and then she walked out the door. God, I will never understand women.
[A/N: Another chapter finished. My wrist hurts now. And my fingers are aching. I'm pathetic. Next chappie: Draco sings, Pansy gets angry, Ginny gets hurt and embarassed, Ron sniggers, Harry points and laughs, Hermione gets a 9/10 on a homework.. err... actually no she doesn't, and Colin's Precious gets broken! Since you read, review!]
