Last time on Ways of Her World: " Ginny, your rambling." he said smiling. She smiled back and then continued searching for the chess set.
" Sorry, I do that when i'm nervous." she said nonchalantly. She sensed him step closer to her.
" What's making you nervous?" he asked in a whisper, and she noticed that he was much closer then she had thought. She turned around and they were as close at you could get without touching.
" You" she whispered.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OH MY GOD, WHERE DID THAT COME FROM? she thought, horrified at her own words.
" Ginny, I-" The door to her room opened and closed.
" Ron's coming." she said quickly, and she stepped to the side, not breaking eye contact. They both stood there, looking deep into each other's eyes, when Ron burst through the door yealling " AH-HA, I caught.....you" he faded off confused as to what was going on. " What are you doing, Ginny? Why are you looking at Harry like that.?" Ginny finally breaking the conection turned to look at Ron, and smiled.
" I was just leaving." She walked quickly out of Ron's room and went up to Fred and Georges room.
" Knock Knock." she said rapping on the door.
" Ginny? Is that you." came Fred's voice from behind the door.
" Yeah!"
" Are you alone?" asked George.
" Yeah." she said again, wondering what was so confidential. She heard what sounded like a buch of locks being undone, and then the door opened.
" Come on in, Ginny." said George. " Wait till you see what we've made!" He was so excited that Ginny hesitated. If I go in there, she thought. I might not come back out with all of my body parts. But in the end her curiousity surpassed her fear of disfigurement. When the twins closed the door Ginny saw that almost a dozen locks had been added to the door.
Fred, whom had begun relocking the door, saw Ginny staring at the locks, and said " Top secret Ginny, you can't tell anyone until we have conducted one human experiment."
" Which," she reminded them, " better not be me. I don't know what you are doing, and frankly I don't want a hands on experience."
" Don't worry Gin, we won't test anything on you.....yet. We were going to use our usual test subject, Percy, but he since he moved last month, we never see him."
" Well, what is this new...er..product?" They smiled mischievously.
" We aren't sure what to call it yet, but it's this dusty shimmering material, that you blow it on someone who is sleeping."
" Won't someone notice if they wake up covered in dust?" she asked. They shook their heads no.
" It's kind of like that story of the sandman. You blow the dust in their face and they don't every know."
" But what does it...do?" she asked, slightly afraid of what the answer might be.
" It causes the person who inhales it to have hallucinations for about 15 minutes." Ginny's eyes sparkled as an idea occured to her.
" I have the perfect test subject." she said, her grin identical to her brothers.
The next morning was the morning that they were going to get on the train for school, and Ginny couldn't have been more ready. " Maybe things will be calmer at school." she told her enchanted mirror.
" Or," replied the mirror, " maybe things will get more hectic."
" That's a lovely thought. You should be a motivation speaker." she said scolding her mirror. " How do I look?" she asked. She was wearing dark muggle blue jeans and an olive colored v neck shirt.
" You look like a red-haired goddess...in jeans." Ginny laughed. " You should curl the ends of your hair, and wear that necklace that the man put on your desk." Ginny's eye's widened.
" What man?" she asked feeling majorly creeped out that someone had been in her room and she hadn't know about it.
"That old man with the long beard, I think he works at the school you go to. He came with a women who had a large purple hat." Ginny was about to ask more questions, but heard her mother shout that breakfast was ready and that they better hurry up or they'd be late.
Ginny lugged her trunk to the stairs to carry it down, but Harry intercepted her.
" I'll get that." he said picking it up. " I already took mine down." Ginny followed him, but before she got even halfway down the stairs she remembered the strage necklace in her room.
" I will be right down." she told Harry then jogged back up to her room. She went over to her desk, and on it lay the mysterious necklace, just as her mirror had told her. It was a a white upside down rose with an a think white chain. She picked it up, and noticed 2 very interesting things about this necklace. One: it had two incriptions, on the underside of the stem it said- "A gift created by tragedy", and on the upperside it said, " For the two, Love will be their only downfall." Two: Whenever she touched she felt powerful and confident, but when she let go, she felt even more shy and powerless then before she had touched it. She walked over to her mirror, fastened it around her neck, and was walking through the doorway when-
" Dumbledore." She turned to face her mirror.
" What?"
" Dumbledore, I believe the women in the purple hat called him dumbledore."
" Are you sure, I mean why would he......?" Ginny was at a loss for words. Why would give me this? Maybe this is all a big misunderstanding? Well, I will just have to clear all of this up once i get to school. she thought. " See ya," she said to her mirror. " I have to get downstairs or mum will have my skin." Ginny bounded down the stairs, and arrived in the kitchen just as her mother took a deep breath in preperation for a shout. Ginny hurrily planted herself between Harry and Hermione, whom were the only people besides her mother in the kitchen.
" There had better be three more red heads down here before I count to ten!" Her mother yelled, her face going red from the strain. Almost instantly Fred and George came running into the kitchen, and sitting right across from Ginny they winke and nodded to the door. Ron arrived when Molly was on 7, and he walked torward Hermione to sit beside her.
" Good morning, ready to go- AHHHHHH." Ron screamed and started running in circles. " Get it off! Get it off! Please!" Hermione, Harry, and Molly jumped up and went over to help, even thought they weren't sure what they were helping him from. Ginny, Fred and George could barely breathe.
" Ron, what is it?" Hermione pleaded. Ron relaxed some, and a look of relief came over his face.
" It's okay it's gone now." he said looking at Hermione. His face tightened. " Stay still Harry. He's on you now, but don't worry...I'll get him." Ron picked up the silver tray their mother served tea on and held it like a bat, ready to swing at Harry's head.
"Ron," Ginny rasped, " you don't know what you are doing. Put the tray down."
" Oh no, and let him get away. I have to get him, can't you see how dangerous he is?" he said. He had an odd gleam in his eyes, and Ginny was sure that he had lost what little of his mind was left.
" Ahhhhhhh! They're everywhere!" he screamed his eyes darting around the room.
" What are they?" Hermione asked nearly in tears. She was trying as hard as she could to comfort him, but he remained terrified no matter what did.
" Monkey's...they're everywhere. Little monkeys." Ginny had to remember how horrible it would be to br Ron to keep her from collaspsing to the floor like Fred and George.
" Ron, don't worry, they aren't real." Ginny said.
" Hey!" Fred shouted. Molly tore away from Ron, who was sitting on the floor hugging his knee's to his chest.
" Fred, George, what have you done to your brother?" she asked so angerily, that both boys shrunk back from her.
" What makes you think we did it?" Mrs. Weasly huffed, and the boys confessed. " But it was Ginny's idea." they said.
" Don't try to put this one off on your little sister. She is much to innocent to be pulling pranks on her brother." This infuriated Ginny to no end.
" Actually, it was my idea, and don't be so quick to judge me mother, I might suprise you." Ginny said forcing herself to stay calm. She had a feeling that during the year she was going to have to keep her temper in check alot, so that she could think rationally. She might as well learn now.
" Ginny? Why would you....I think we should speak privately." she said as she saw everyone leaning forward. " Come with me to the living room." she said walking in front of Ginny.
" Ginny, what has gotten into you? Is everything alright?" Molly asked gently.
" No, but take it from me, you wouldn't understand."
" Ginny, I know the kind of changes your going through, I went through them too."
" First of all- EWW. Second of all, I highly highly doubt it." Ginny said.
" Mum?" came Ron's still quavering voice. " Dad says it's time to go."
" Alright tell him we'll be out in a moment." He nodded and then left. " Ginny, I don't care what changes are taking place in your life, you still don't have the right to play such a mean trick on Ron. You know that Ron is terrified of monkeys." Ginny grinned remembering the way that they had chased him out of the petting zoo when he was 6. Ever since then, he wouldn't go near them.
" I didn't know that he would see monkeys." she said truthfully, and with that she left her mother and ventured out to where everyone was waiting for her in the cars. Luckilly Molly wasn't going to see them off that year, so Ginny didn't have to elaborate on the changes she was going through.
The car ride to the platform was completly uneventfull. Ginny rode up front with her father while Harry, Ron, and Hermione rode together in the back....as usual. When they arrived they quickly and quietly they got their things, and went through the barrier to the platform. Ginny was the first to go through, and she hurried on the train hoping to get a compartment to herself. She dropped off her trunk and ran with her messenger bag through the train.
It seemed that every compartment had at least five people in it. There was one with only two people, but she figured that Harry, Ron, and Hermione would take it, and she didn't want to be in there when they did. Ginny just wanted to be away from them. She didn't have many friends at Hogwarts before, so she had hung out with them as long as they'd let her, but now she just wanted to rest, maybe even read a litte in her books.
The very last compartment in the train looked deserted so Ginny went in and sprawled out on the covered bench. She had closed her eyes and was just about to drift off to sleep when a scuffling noise sounded from across the compartment. She sat up, and at first she didn't see anything, but after a moment a platinum blonde sauntered out from the shadows.
" Malfoy! What are you, stalking me or something?" she yelled. He shrugged and flopped down and the bench perpendicular to hers. His eyes traveled down to her necklace, and for a moment his face showed signs of shock, but he quickly put back on the mask he always wore...until recently. She had a way of making him forget to control his emotions. She'd actually made him smile! No girl had ever done that, but of course, Ginny didn't know this.
" Nice necklace." he said, once again calm. " Where did you get it?" Ginny tried to ignore him, and laid back down. " Come on Weasel. Didn't your mother ever teach you to be polite or was she too busy eating when you were a child?" Ginny lost her temper and was preparing to throw him out of the train window when it ocurred to her, she might get into trouble for that, so she settled for yelling at him again.
" Why do you care where I got it?"
" Because it might tell me how I got mine." he said pulling a necklace out of his pocket. It was just like hers, except that it had a black chain and a black rose. This is weird. she thought. Oh no! What if the mirror was right, and everythings just going to get crazier! Just my luck.
" So where did you get it?" Malfoy asked interrupting her thoughts.
" I don't know, it was lying on my desk." she said. He sighed.
" Mine too." Before he could put the necklace back into his pocket, the train lurched sending Ginny's bag to the floor. The book that she bought at the mysterious store in Diagon Alley, The Special Gifts Among Us, fell out of her bag and opened. She bent down to put the book back in her bag, but stopped as the pages began turning all by themself. She looked up to Malfoy to see his reaction, but as she glanced towards him something else caught her attention. The necklace was swaying from where Malfoy was dangling it. Malfoy let go of it, as if it was on fire, and the necklace shot over and stuck to the page open in Ginny's book.
Malfoy walked over and sat next to her on the floor. " Well, what does it say?" he asked. She looked down at the page the charm on the necklace was stuck to and was suprised to see it was about Lifters, and even more suprised when Malfoy leaned over and pointed at one of the pictures on the bottom of the page. " Look," he said. " There's a picture of these necklaces in there. Do you want me to read it?" he asked seeing that Ginny wasn't really paying attention to the book anymore. She nodded, and he took the book from her lap. Ginny was becoming increasingly aware of an enticing smell coming her way everytime Malfoy moved.
" Ten thousand years ago, a man name Easen reported having the ability to lift things with his mind, thus, he is now known as the first Lifter. He is the author of several books about Lifters, which are, even today, some of the best accounts of this peculiar gift. Although Easen is mostly known for being a lifter he did have many other talents. Among these were common talents such as, literacy, philosophy, drawing, and carpentry. His uncommen talents were, Lifting, Divination, and the ability to perform wandless magic. In his book Present and Future of Lifters. he describes a vision that he had of the future. He most specifically described two young Lifter whom would have the power to change the world. There names and special abilities are listed below."
Draco stopped here and sighed. " Is this what you read in your spare time?" he asked smirking. " No wonder you never get asked out. Your a nerd!" He started to chuckle. Ginny blushed furiously and looked at the floor, but then remembering that she had made a pact with herself to not be the same shy Ginny anymore, she looked back up at Malfoy. He wasn't laughing anymore, he wasn't even smirking. He just stood there staring deep into her eyes. Man, he has great eyes, she thought starting to lose her self control. Ginny had thought that Malfoy would have looked away but he didn't. They both just stood there gazing into each others eyes, not daring to even bling for the possibility of losing the moment. Then the door swung open and in flew a bounch of slytherin girls with Pansy Parkinson, and Lulu Hartline (6th year) heading the group.
" Draco, baby! There you are!" Pansy's voice screeched. " I've been looking everywhere for you. I missed you so much. My owl must not have given you my letters because you never wrote me back." She stopped with all of the other girls when she noticed Ginny in the room. She looked for a moment back and forth at Ginny and Draco, whom had still not broken eye contact, and soon decided she needed all of Draco's attention. She planted a big wet kiss right on his lips. The moment was lost as Malfoy stared widly down at the girl whom was now attempting to suck off his lips. Ginny took this moment to look at the place she usually rested her eyes...the floor.
After standing there for an unbelievably long time, listening to Malfoy try to pry off Pansy, and the whispers of the other Slytherin girls, Ginny was saved by Pansy suggesting that they all " go somewhere that didn't smell like a muggle lover".
One by one all of the girls filed out of the room, leaving Ginny and Malfoy, who lingered a moment, all alone. He walked uncomfortably close to Ginny and whispered " You really should do something about that."
" About what?" Ginny asked, she was becoming increasingly dizzy because of the closeness of Malfoy. He reached two fingers and touched the vampire bite that was still on her neck.
" That. It looks horrible." Ginny's hand flew up to cover the vampires bite.
" You can see it?" Ginny asked loudly. Maloy smirked and walked out the door to join Pansy and the rest of the Slytherin's.
" This year is gonna suck!" she said grumpilly sitting down and folding her arms like a small child who was told to sit in time out.
