Chapter 3: Sweet Sixteen

The morning of the performance the girls woke up and went running. They changed into swimsuits and went down to the pool. They boys slept until about 1:00pm and woke up just as the girls were eating lunch. The boys stampeded down and made sandwiches to eat. The girls had just finished eating and were heading back to the poolside when the boys approached the girls. They more than once attempted to untie one of the girls tops before deciding to get swimsuits on and join the girls.

Draco sat down in the lounge chair beside Ginny and just stared at the white roses that peaked out from under her bikini bottom. He knew Ginny would eventually see him so he decided to jump in the water. He walked over to the diving board and dived in. The other boys soon joined him and much to their dismay about and two hours later the girls went inside. Draco snuck up on Ron and dunked him under the water. Soon an all ou7t water war was in progress. The girls took naps and showered before putting on the clothes they were wearing to the club. Ginny had on a tight black mini- skirt and a black camouflage tank top. The other girls' outfits were very similar. They all had on tight black mini's and camouflage tank tops of different colors. They didn't bother to conceal their outfits this time. They had shrunk all of their costumes and accessories to fit in the pockets of their cloaks.

They arrived at the club and the girls sought out the manager. He told them he had arranged a back room as a dressing room. They changed into short mini skirts and bikini type tops. They unshrunk the rest of their outfits including the tight black pants and black corset tops for their Bring Me To Life routine and their harem costumes for the Make Over routine. The manger borrowed a microphone from the DJ and quickly got the clubs attention. "I am please to announce our Saturday regular entertainment. They are a group of dancers that call themselves The Deceptions. Well without further ado here are The Deceptions." The girls burst out of the back room and onto the empty dance floor. The music for Dirrty flowed out of the speakers and they uncharmed their outfits.

Applause filled the club as they finished up the first routine. The girls ran into the back room as the manager setup the lighting effects for their next routine. The girls had had a charm placed on them that made them float inches off the floor as they lay waiting for the music. Bring Me To Life filled the club and the girls sprung to life. They taunted and teased the audience as they went through their routines. After they finished all the boys were clamoring and trying to snag a dance with one of the girls.

Draco grabbed Ginny's hand and pulled her to the dance floor. At the end of the song Draco made a move and decided to try and kiss Ginny. He moved closer and attempted to kiss her. She pulled back and her hand connected with his face. She slapped him and started screaming at him. "DRACO MALFOY HOW DARE YOU TRY THAT" She felt the anger rising in her as she continued. "I HATE YOU DRACO MALFOY" She new she didn't really hate him, but she didn't want to fall for him. She couldn't fall for him. He was Draco Malfoy Slytherin's bad boy. She grabbed some floo powder and flooed to Lyanna's. She ran up to Lyanna's room and sobbed into her pillow.

Draco stood their holding his smarting cheek. His heart breaking at the sight of tears streaming down her cheeks. Lyanna ran after Ginny and flooed to her house. She ran up the stairs and followed the sound of tears. She found Ginny lying on her bed sobbing her heart out on to her pillow. She sat down beside Ginny and quietly told her it would be ok. "I don't really hate him. Just what he does to me" She confessed to Lyanna. "I just am so confused. I don't know whether he really loves me or just wants me as a one night stand." Lyanna remember Draco's face as he watched Ginny run away tears streaming. His eyes were filled with sadness and love as he watched the redhead run off the dance floor. Ginny cried herself to sleep not knowing that the others had come home.

The next morning Ginny woke and got dressed to run. Lyanna was in the kitchen drinking tea. When she saw Ginny she handed her the pouch containing 100 galleons that had arrived by post this morning. Ginny took it back to her room and started stretching before her run. Lyanna followed Ginny out the door and the stated running. They ran for many miles and some how ended up near the Burrow. Ginny glanced at her watch and knocked on the door.

The door opened and shock registered on Charlie Weasley's face before he spoke (actually shouted). "VIRGINA ANN WEASLEY WHAT IN MERLINS NAME HAVE YOU DONE?" Just as Charlie was done screaming Bill came down the stairs. Bill saw Ginny's face at the door. "Hi Ginny" Charlie stepped aside giving Bill a full view of Ginny. "BLOODY HELL GINNY WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?" Ginny started talking in rapid secession with Lyanna, about their getaway, When Bill went to get the his parents. Bill came back with Mr. And Mrs. Weasley and Ginny and Lyanna took off running in the direction they came leaving a very confused Weasley family in their wake. Mr. And Mrs. Weasley were yelling at Ginny to come back, but she ignored them and kept running.

Two hours later the girls reached the Treville's. They ran up the stairs put on their bikinis and jumped into the pool. The other teens were still sleeping when the two girls got out of the pool half and hour later. They both took showers and changed into shorts and tank tops. Ginny fixed her and Lyanna something to eat. The girls finished their lunch and were playing wizards chess just as the other teens came down the stairs. They mumbled their hellos and went to get something to eat.

One hour later the teens were sitting in the living room trying to think of something to do. The guys began tossing up ideas. "How about swimming" "We've done enough of that," the girls complained. "Well we haven't" "What have you been doing" "Walking around the lake" the boys, sputtered quickly. "Oh really" the girls not believing a word. "What have you really been doing?" "WE JUST TOLD YOU." The girls just sighed in frustration

Shit that was too bloody close thought Harry. Meanwhile Ron was deep in thought. Hmmmmm. lets get tattoos. Ron whispered his idea to Harry. Soon it had passed around the room (A/N: To the boys only.) The boys were up and out of the room before the girls even knew what hit them. They made up their minds. They were going shopping.

The girls went to muggle London. They went to tons of shops and got tons of clothes. Meanwhile the boys had just gotten finished in the magical tattoo parlor and were just coming out of the Leakey Cauldron and into muggle London. (A/N: Uh-Oh) The boys were going shopping for Ginny's birthday presents. The girls were heading towards the Leakey Cauldron to floo back to Lyanna's. They saw the boys coming towards them. As they approached the girls saw their tattoos. Ginny waited until Ron got close enough to see the anger in her eyes. She started running after him when she realized what she was wearing on her feet. Oh shit I'm in stilettos. She stopped her chase and walked back to the girls and they went into the Leakey Cauldron and flooed to the mansion.

Ginny ran upstairs to Lyanna's room she threw on a sports bra like top, a pair of bicycle shorts, and her running shoes. She went downstairs and waited for Ron to get home. Ron walked in through the door one hour later. She waited for him to set down his bags before she blew up at him. "RONALD WEASLEY YOU GO AND YELL AT ME FOR WHAT I'VE DONE AND THEN YOU GO AND DO IT YOUR SELF. NEXT TIME DON'T YELL AT ME IF YOU PLAN ON GOING ANG DOING THE SAME THING I DID." With that Ginny slapped him so hard it made his ears ring Ginny flew out the door and ran down to the lake. She sat on the boulders crying as she remembered Ron's lecture.

"VIRGINIA ANN WEASLEY WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU WERE DOING. TATTOOS ARE PERMINANT IT WILL BE THERE FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE." "DO YOU THINK I CARE RON. I KNEW WHAT I WAS DOING. I WANTED A NEW LOOK AND I GOT IT. PEOPLE CAN FINALLY SEE THE REAL ME. RON THE REAL ME"

Draco watched Ginny sobbing from the base of the tree at which he sat. He wanted to comfort her but considering what had happened at the club he might get slapped again. He went with his gut and walked over to the lake and began skipping stones. Ginny had stopped crying and looked up at the sound of a stone going under the water. Ginny looked and saw a flash of platinum blonde hair. "Draco?" "What Ginny" Draco called from his spot by the lake. "I didn't mean what I said at the club. I was just confused, but I've been thinking and I realized that I care about you." "I care about you too" The too hugged and walked back from the lake.

Ginny went upstairs to take a shower and think. In the shower Ginny realized what she had told Draco. She stepped out of the shower an hour later feeling refreshed and calm. She pulled on a knee length skirt and a spaghetti strap tank-top with an unbuttoned short sleeved shirt over top. She pulled her hair into a pony-tail and added some peach flavored lip- gloss. Ginny grabbed her book and decided to read downstairs.

She reached the Treville's enormous living room and found it dark, with the lights off and curtains drawn closed. She flipped on the lights. "SURPRISE" yelled a chorus of voices as family and friends jumped out from behind furniture when she turned on the lights. With all the drama of the day she had completely forgotten that today she turned sixteen, Sweet Sixteen
