~*~Author's Note: This is my first fanfic so please be nice, though flames are appreciated since it will help me become a better writer.rock on reviewers!

~*~Disclaimer: I do not own the "Potterverse" the lucky goose J.K. Rowling does! Nor do I own the song, "As the World Falls Down", no matter how much I listen to the joyous song composed and performed by David Bowie during the most excellent movie LABYRINTH. I highly recommend that you download this song, you won't regret it!

~*~As The World Falls Down~*~

"Why does it always take girls so long to get ready?" Draco grumbled to himself. Malfoys should not be made to wait, even if the end result is worth it, he thought. He shoved his hands into the pockets on his black sports coat. He felt the object in his pocket and sighed with satisfaction. Perfect. He looked into the hallway mirror of his girlfriend and his shared apartment. As he straightened his tie for the thousandth time, he saw a breathtaking apparition over his reflection's shoulder. He spun to greet it.

"Well, this is about as good as its going to get so I suppose we can leave. My hair was being rather impudent, but this should do." said the young woman as she fingered her silken red locks.

Draco gulped and began the blissful task of appraising the lady before him. A hunter green satin strapless dress hugged her pale body, the skirt straight and fluting out at the knees with a slight train which caused the gown to swirl around her feet. His eyes traveled up the column of her neck, adorned with a simple silver chain. His eyes flitted past her full lips and delicate nose and reached her chocolate eyes, accentuated by dark eyeliner and a light green glimmer of eye shadow. Her gem - like eyes danced with her wild dreams and her loving smile, what had caused Draco to fall for her, into the deep hole that he was now floundering in.

***"There's such a sad love,

Deep in your eyes.

A kind of pale jewel,

Open and closed,

Within your eyes.

I'll place the sky,

Within your eyes."***

"You look lovely, Ginny."

Shan: Sorry that it's so short! I'm gonna do a portion of the song in each chapter. So there will be many more chapters to come, as the song is about 5 minutes long.

Jareth: *appears in a cloud of glitter* And it was originally sung to my darling Sarah! Another man is using it to woo the woman of his dreams? No fair!

Shan: Where did you - oh never mind! You're the fucking Goblin King and can do whatever you want. You're getting credit dude!

Jareth: Really?

Shan: Yes, really, J-Man!

Jareth: *sigh of relief, now looks genuinely concerned* Is it going to work? Will my song, used with proper credit to David Bowie *cough* poser of the Goblin King *cough* and myself, woo Ginny? And what is the object in his coat pocket?

Shan: I'M NOT TELLING! *sticks tongue out at the Goblin King* SO THERE! You're going to have to wait to find out just like everyone else!

Jareth: That's not fair!

Shan: You say that so often, I wonder what your basis for comparison is.

Jareth: Say! That's my line!

Shan: I know! I love throwing peoples original quotes back at them!

Jareth: *pouts* Still not fair.

Shan: Awe.poor Jareth.Well, I guess I had better help him rebuild his ego.Chapter 2 on its way!
