Malicious Malfoy has a Good Side.

As Malfoy stood there he had a thought in his head, a thought that him and Ginny had a connection, he didnâEt know how but he also had it in his head that she would be fun, to mess around with. Unfortuantly Ginny had the same thought, that he was just a goof ball, although his father was someone not to be reckoned with but him he was simply a toy to play with a little toy from the toy box.

" Hey weasel, looking pretty good this year"

"Well isnt someone a little frisky this morning, she said with an almost playful grin on her face, but honestly Draco, what would your dear or dad say about you having ties of sorts with a âE?filthy, lowly, weasel? Eh?"

So far things had been coming along fine, but the sudden boyish air to his face dissapeared and was replaced by a disdainful, remorse look that told her she had pushed something, in the back of his mind to the front in full view, she instrantly regretted it. She thought furthermore as to, why she was on such good terms with him all of a sudden? What was she thinking?

"Hey weasel, I donâEt think my father would appreciate your filthy, muggle loving lips to say his name, or even ackaknowlege him, it isnt your place so sod out of it. I thought you had more sense then that, Weasel." He spat.

Although she was slightly confused and a little taken aback at the sudden change she wasn't quite done with him yet and her anger was slowly rising, so she did what any normal person would do, retailate.

"First off unless your father has some deep dark secret he's hiding which im sure he does he can come tell me himself, otherwise I have every bloody right to speak of him how I wish due to the fact you speak ill mannered of everyone I know so chew on that. Second off since when do you care about my sesnse, my sense is my sense, and ill act as rashly or as sensably as id like to and you cant do anything about it."

She was quite pleased with her proformance accept her sense bit --she thought it did sound a little bit childish but that really wasn't what was important and she knew that he knew that. What right did he have to say that, when his evil decietful mouth was constantly hurling insults at her? She looked up only to see not a retalitaing Malfoy but a small smile forming at the corner of his mouth. What exactally was he playing at? One minute he was hissing at her for nothing the next he was amused with her.

"Malfoy, make up your mind, are you pissed at me or amused, because your confusing me over here."

"Well Weasly, it's a bittersweet deal here, he said taking some steps forward, she hadnt noticed he had been standing for at least 10 minutes, she scooted over allowing him some room but he sat opposite of her instead, I don't deny that I find your tactics a arugments mildy entertaining, but on the bitterside I do not wish any one to speak of my father right now." He looked positivly miserable while explaining all this and Ginny was still highly confused.

"Malfoy, I know I'm not your closest friend but I wont say that I don't care about your feelings, ive changed a lot and I see some changes in you too. I don't mean to sound all emotional but I think that you would feel a lot better if you would at least tell someone intellegent about your problems."

Draco smiled mentally at the statement of intellegence, she knew as well as he did that Crabbe and Goyle were the two biggest pea brained gits and they hardly accounted as friends. Sitting there, in the company of Ginny Weasley wasn't as bad as he thought, she was a trip at least, and she did care, which struck him as odd but he found the realiazation that he could start this over, he could find a friend in her. That maybe someone would accept him and the news that came next allowed all these things to be okay.

"Weasley if I tell you something will you promise not to tell, and promise you wont pity me in any way or form?"

"Yes, I sopose I could, and I will, if you give me this much trust, thats very, she choaked the word out, ---kind of you.

"What has gotten into me? What is this I feel like he can relate to me, I hope hes okay, he isnt as bad as I thought he was, maybe that is because I always stayed out of my way and I, his. Just because my brother and his friends despise him does'nt mean I have to.

"My father is dead, he was killed about a week ago, murdered actually by Snape, but I don't hate Snape, I actually thank him for it, now I can start over. And I know that I shouldt be so picky about my father if he is dead and gone, but I still have a little respect for him, although I don't see anything he did right for me, always choosing who and who not to come into accuaintence with, how to be a deatheater, against my will, I don't want that I don't want any of this, I just wanted friends I just wanted to have a normal life, not a life over run with Voldemorts doings and a life of hiding the truth, and I cant believe im telling you the truth, but its been so long since ive had a friend, someone to confide in. Ginny, can we be friends, can we please be friends?"

Ginny could not believe a word she was hearing. This had to be some sick joke, some way to get her where he wanted her and attack. He sounded so sincere though, almost convincing. She would let her guard down for right now, but as soon as there were any hints of a big lie, she would bring the shield back up, and retalitate three times worse then before.

"Draco, I had no idea, and im sorry for my remark before, it was all in good spirits, but I think that you have always needed a friend, and I regret not being your friend before. In the mean time, yes I will be your friend if you'll let me but I do recommend that we at least act like we used to. Just so people don't get suspicious, we can start over but it has to be slowly and with everyone else, slowly, one step at a time, kinda like stopping smoking, she laughed out loud at this, and Draco gave a look of mass confusion, just be your mean nasty self to me and we can plan to meet secretly if you like, and sooner or later im sure we can bring your new and improved self out into the open for everyone to see, I do admit it will be hard to convince people that your really a "good guy" but I don't doubt that people wont belive it at first but we can work this out. If you ever need a friend im here."

Draco smiled a soft smile and gave the first real hug he had ever been known to give, and mean. It felt good to have someone there with more brainpower then a toad. Life was certainly not going to be boring anymore, this year truly was going to be interesting.

Ginny felt so many things right now, relief, happiness, she truly could'nt wait to fraternize with her new friend. He had gone through a make over, only this time a makeover of his soul.

She could'nt wait to get back to school and talk to her favorite teacher, Professor Snape.
