A/N I'm sorry, this one was supposed to go up yesterday but I was really busy babysitting (five hours with a demon child, that's enough to put you off for a day, right?), then I went shopping and out to dinner, and I got home around 10 and my dad wouldn't let me get online, forgive me PLEASE! Oh, I hope all of you enjoy the thank yous at the bottom, if I forgot you…I'm sorry, remind me and I won't next time.

"I can't believe she hit me!" Draco thought. His cheek was still throbbing, he wondered if it was as red as he thought it might be. Thankfully, no one seemed to notice. Draco looked at Ginny, her face was red all the way up to the roots of her hair, she must be really mad. "There goes my shot there! If I even had one..." He thought miserably.

"Why are you so haughty?" Draco said in tones that would make your breath freeze, even if you said it in the warmest weather.

"Sorry, what?" Ginny answered, pretending as best she could to not hear him.

"I asked you why you're so damn haughty?" Draco repeated, losing his patience.

"The only reason you agreed to be in a group with Blaise and I was so you could snog me, wasn't it Draco?" She asked, looking at him loathingly.

"You know nothing, the best groups were already taken, Weasel-ette." Draco growled.

With that, he got up to go see Goyle. He found him sitting with Dean Thomas. They weren't talking; Dean was sitting in the isle seat while Goyle was asleep in the window seat. Draco prodded him awake and they went to go talk on the stair well.

"So, how's Ginny, I noticed you to were getting pretty close, have you snogged her yet?" Goyle asked hopefully.

"No, you can't just snog someone, even if you have been with them for about 6 hours straight! It takes time!" Draco replied.

"Oh, she wouldn't let you? Is that why your cheek is all read?" Goyle asked dumbly.

"No, I was asleep on it, I just woke up and thought I'd come talk to someone worth while for a change." Draco said in a convincing way.

"Yeah, I know how that goes, those damn Weasley's, what a waste of magic!" Goyle said scathingly.

"She isn't a waste, and you're a waste of brains you dumb oaf!" He thought icily. Through gritted teeth he said, "Oh, yeah, she is so stupid, she isn't even that good at magic, I wish I weren't stuck with her!"

Just then the pilot came over the intercom and said, "We will be beginning our decent now so please return to your seats and buckle your seat belt, thank you!"

"Talk to you when we get off." Goyle said to Draco.

Draco grunted in reply and began his way back to his seat.

Ginny was looking scared again, he didn't want to chance comforting her again though; she might hit him for his efforts. Instead he busied himself looking past her and out the window. He could see the runway below them and could faintly see the ocean in the distance. It wasn't very dark here, considering it was only 8 o'clock-ish. It looked as though the sun had set just a while before.

Ginny was looking at the ocean too, her mouth was hanging open a little, Draco thought she looked beautiful. He felt the landing gear touch the ground and the plane shuttered a little bit. Ginny began simply quivering with fear.

~*~*~

Ginny was so excited to get out of the plane and be on this beautiful island (and to get off this dreadful plane). It was very small and she could see the beach in every direction. The water looked crystal blue and there were palm trees everywhere. She couldn't begin to imagine the fun she was going to have on this trip! Dumbledore's voice came over the intercom again,

"Everyone please catch up with your partner and we will be heading to our sleeping quarters. You are going to be living like muggles on this entire trip. We ask that you please hand your wand over to Professor McGonagall or I on your way out of the plane. We will be walking to our tents since this island is, as you see, so very small. Please don't forget any of your baggage on the plane. Thank you!"

They were sleeping in tents? Hopefully he meant some very nice, large tents like circus tents or something. Or like the one's at the Quidditch World Cup. Even so, this was going to be so fun! Ginny could feel someone looking at her. She quickly looked around and caught Draco staring at her and caught his eye. She noticed that his cheek was still very red. She felt a pang of guilt and felt really sorry for hitting him. He noticed her eyeing his cheek and quickly turned away.

This was going to be a long trip!

A/N I'm so sorry that this chapter was so short, only 760 words… I just wanted to get them to the island and leave it at that, the real fun happens in the next couple chapters! I'm going to be doing some thank yous, just so you all know how much I appreciate your reviews!

Sakura1287/Tina- thank you so much for being my beta, I know that I needed it and who better to do it than you? Your reviews are awesome and they're all pretty long and I always get a good laugh from them. Thank you so much for this challenge, I hope it lives up to your expectations!

Lynn- I know, I know. I'm getting there will you just hold your horses for a second??? Jeez, give me time to type! Love you!

King-squeaky/Adrian- thanks for the reviews, I know that you already read it on my xanga and I'm soooo sorry! But I'm getting it up asap, good luck with your challenge! I love you, HK rules!

Lady Megan-thank you for the cookie, it was yummy! :-D still, why couldn't I just have the jeans???? Only kidding, you can keep them (pouts). I know Blaise is weird, and that Draco's wonderful and hot (just wait until they start swimming! Drools). I want to go to the Bahamas with Draco too!!!! Thanks for reviewing!

Niere Evenstar- I'm glad you like the interaction. I too hate it when authors make time speed up and don't show you exactly how everything is going on, so I tried to make my story not fall under those lines.

kandy65grl78- sorry the chapters aren't long enough for you, you probably died when you saw how short this one was! I'm sorry, I'm doing my best!

Fan- sorry I made you resort to begging, they're being posted, don't worry! Thanks for the compliment, but I wouldn't say I'm actually…amazing…amazing is for a writer that's really, really, really, really good, I don't exactly fall into that category, thanks again though!

SamiJo- yeah, skiing isn't a good way to get a tan, unless it's water-skiing in the Bahamas! It's going up as fast as I can make it, don't lose interest!

DanielsBfbf- thanks for the suggestion, but seeing as how I already have up to chapter 11 written, I really couldn't use it! I'm sorry! Thank you so much though!

GinnyDracoFan-glad it's being read, even more glad that it's being loved!

Annonomousmonkeys- cliffys build for the next chapter, some are required, sorry, you'll have to live with it! They'll kiss soon enough, jeez! Patience people! Just kidding, thanks for the review, I appreciate it!

Also, many thanks to my other reviewers; unfortunately, your reviews were so short that I really didn't have much to say to them! Hope this does it though…
