A/N: Okay, I just came back from France and it's good to be home. Had a lot time to think of the new chapter, although it was all on my mind for quiet a long time. Well, it was the only thing that could happen now: Draco enters the scene. As promised.

Chapter3: Unforseen, strange discoveries
Snape left the High table after Dumbledore. "You wanted to talk to me, Severus? How can I help you?" "What's going on with Ginny Weasley? She is acting kind of stange lately, isn`t she?" "Ginny Weasley?" Dumbledore asked surprised. 'He couldn't have seen the golden light that had surrounded her, when she walked into the hall, could he?' Dumbledore thought to himself. "What exactly do you mean?"
"Well…" Snape was unsure now. Hadn't Dumbledore seen the golden light? "I saw her standing in the Great Hall, she looked kind of absent-minded and went out of the hall without even eating." As Dumbledore didn't answer, Snape backed down from his thoughts. 'I must have imagined it, or the light was playing tricks on my eyes. I'm getting old. What am I to occupy myself with such rubbish. Ginny Weasley had not been surrounded by a golden light.' He shook his head unseemingly. "I think I need to go to my lesson." With that Snape turned and left . Dumbledore stood there and stared after him, wondering what this was all about.
As Colin and Ginny left the room hand in hand, he looked at her. "Gin, you look horrible. Your make-up is…" He couldn't finish his sentence, because a sneering voice disturbed them. "Doesn't she look horrible all her life, because she is a Weasley?" Colin and Ginny turned around to see Draco Malfoy. Ginny closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She could feel the air fill her lungs and nearly feel how the strength began to run through her body. Only one thought was on her mind. 'You can stand up for yourself. No one must protect you. You can talk, think and fight for yourself.' When she opened her eyes, she could see that Colin's face was red with anger.
She began to smile. "Malfoy." Her voice was emotionless, then she nodded, took Colins hand and pulled him away from Malfoy. "He isn't worth it, Colin" she said loud enough for Draco to hear, "he is just a spoiled kid." She could nearly feel the anger rising in Draco and for a moment she felt fear coming up in her throat.
" So Creavy, your little girlfriend must protect you, mustn`t she? You realize, that you just comforted her, because her little crush Harry Potter hasn't noticed her, and as a matter of fact will never notice her at all. Now she uses you for a little snog in that old classroom. That's so poor!" Colin had stoped instandly.
"Colin, listen to me", Ginny said. Her voice was calm. "This is Draco Malfoy, from the uh-hu-hu soooo scary Malfoy clan. He is not capable of realising his own insufficiency, so he tries to compensate it by insulting other people and that`s poor!" 'Where did that come from?', Ginny thought. Colin looked at her surprised.
"You know I'm right!" Ginny looked at him. Then she turned to Draco and started focusing on him. He was good looking, no doubt, and there was something around Draco Malfoy, that felt familiar, but then there were his grey eyes. They were so cold, that a fire would freeze if he would look at it long enough. He was staring at her. After a while, he turned and walked away. "Lets go. It's late and we have potions. It's the first day, and I don't want to get detention with Snape." Colin took her hand and they walked towards the Dungeons.
Draco stoped as he had walked around the corner. 'What was that?' he asked himself. Little Virginia Weasley, the Weasle's baby sister had insulted him in a way no one else before ever had.
Infact no one ever had insulted a Malfoy before, without being told of or dead. He was confused. The insult hadn't hurt him at all, but the way she had said it. So calm, so serious, so sure of herself. And that golden light that had been around her when she entered the Great Hall…
'Calm down Draco.' He shook his head, but instead of calming down, anger began to rise again in his chest. 'Who does she think she is, that she can insult me like that. She will not get away with that so easy. Revenge. That is what she will get from this little incident.' He had a Reputation to uphold. A smirke came to his face. He had a plan…
A/N: Okay, That's it. Hope you liked it. I'm sorry, that the chapter is that short, but although I had it on my mind for quite a long time, this is where it ended. I will try to make the next chapter a little longer. More Draco/Ginny.
Before I forget: Please review. I'm addicted to thoses reviews. So please take your time and review! Review!
