"Erm…you see, well…hang on am minute. Why are you here?" Ginny spluttered.

"This is not just the place where you like to go to get away from it all,"

"You come here?"

"Yes, Weasley I do,"

"If I'd've known I wouldn't come here anymore,"

"Oh. Don't let me stop you."

"You arrogant bastard,"

"Do you talk to your mother like that?"

"It's none of your business how I talk to my mother or anyone else for that matter,"

"OK, Weasley…" He trailed off and for the first time stared into Ginny's eyes. She felt like someone had tipped a bucket of ice-cold water over her. His eyes had this much power.

"Malfoy, stop looking at me," she cried uneasily tearing her eyes away from his cold grey ones.

"Weasley I wasn't trying to look at you. My eyes have better things to do,"

"Then why were you looking at me?"

"I dunno. You tell me,"

"Well…you…I dunno – err…there, um…" How could he baffle her like this?

"Just. Don't. Speak, Weasley," he replied smirking slightly.

God she hated this…this man. I suppose he is a man now, Ginny thought to herself staring at him slightly.

"It's your turn to stop looking at me now, Weasley," Malfoy drawled.

"Gladly. We wouldn't want to turn to stone now would we?" Ginny said, her voice thick with fake sweetness.

Malfoy stared down his nose at her disbelievingly.

"Isn't that some muggle thingy–me–bob?" He asked insinuatingly.

"It's the story of Medusa, ancient Greeks believed if she looked you in the eye you'd turn to sto-" But she was cut short, Malfoy had his hand in the air.

"I don't care," he replied crudely, "you don't actually believe this shit do you?"

"Well…it's – just you see…" she stopped suddenly and looked at him for the first time properly. He was still looking down at her and she saw for the very first time he was expecting something from her; he wanted something from her. He wanted her answer; in fact by the way he was looking at her he really needed it. Of course he doesn't, don't be stupid. He doesn't need anything from you Virginia Weasley. What could he possibly want from you? An answer! She drew herself up tall, surprising Malfoy slightly, "Yes. Yes I do."

"Well then you're even more stupid than I thought," he retorted.

"You always have to have the last word don't you? Do you have a whole list of come backs stored in your head?" And with that Ginny walked towards the door of the Greenhouse.

"Had anymore of those letters?" Malfoy spat quickly.

Ginny stopped in her tracks and turned round to face him.

"What letters?" She asked carefully.

"The ones you come here to read. The ones you sit here doting over, and asking yourself 'oh is it Harry?' 'I do hope its Harry!' 'It must be Harry!' those letters," Malfoy had drawn himself up to his full 6 foot and was smirking down at Ginny. There was no way she was going to get out of this one!

"I don't know what you're talking about," Ginny replied smoothly, "and unless you admit to be stalking me then you don't know what letters either," Ginny was staring straight into his eyes now, but she tore herself away from his eyes again and stormed out of the greenhouse and ran all the way to school. Had she have turned round she would have seen Malfoy standing at the entrance to the Greenhouse looking smug with himself.

When Ginny knew she was in a safe place (her bed in Gryffindor common room) she sat down on her bed. She rubbed her face and stared guiltily at the drawer containing the letters. Why am I feeling guilty? She asked herself. But still she couldn't help it. They didn't seem right, permissible anymore.

Half an hour later a crackling fire was feeding happily on five pieces of scrunched up paper.

How the hell did he know? Was all she could keep asking herself. How the hell did he know?

You like? So sorry I forgot to thank anyone last chap, but I'll do it now.
