Americasweetie: I'm so happy you liked the story. If you keep reading I'll keep writing.
Green_witch39: I know, I love that Dixie Chicks song too. It is sad but don't worry, this story isn't sad in the end. I'm not a sad endings person.
CrimsonWriting: I'm glad you liked the story. I'm very happy you like the plot and all. I've gotten a lot of ideas from songs and what not. Keep reading!
Artemis moonshine: I'm glad you think this is a great story. I hope you like this chapter. I'll write as fast I can.
Harrypotter's luvr: I'm so happy you liked my story. I'd love to review your story. Keep reading.
Ed-Ed: I'm glad my story touched you so deeply. LOL. Anyways, I hope this is a good chapter. There's not much Draco/Ginny actions but that okay, there will be in the future.
Rose petel: A very faithful reader and reviewer! I'm so happy you liked this story too. I know it was sweet, that was what I was going for in this one. Not so much fighting. That's what's in my other story.
Okay guys, here's the next chapter.
Dear Gin,
I hope I find you in good health. I'm sorry it's been so long since I've last spoken to you. It's getting rough over here. My first major assignment is coming up soon. I have no idea what it will be but don't worry, I'll be okay. I miss you so much. I saw your brother and Potter yesterday and overheard a conversation they were having. Your brother says that you're swooning over an unknown man who writes to you daily. Says you found yourself, and these are his words, a "lover boy". I really need to talk to you, face to face, soon. I have all these feeling for you but I don't know what they are. I know I care deeply for you. I care more for you than anyone else in my life. I've never felt like this before. You've shown me what I've missed out on my entire life. I owe you so much. I hope to be home soon, and when I mean home I mean with you.
I assume you're preparing for school to start back. It is nearing the time to leave. I hope everything goes good for you. Tell me if anyone bothers you. I'll be there before in a flash. I'd give my life to protect you. I have to go. It might be awhile until I can write to you again. Please understand. First chance I have to write again I will.
Love,
You know
Ginny read and re-read the letter several times. She couldn't believe her eyes; Draco confessed that he cared for her. She was so happy. She too had developed deep feelings for him, maybe even love. They had kept in touch, like they said they would. Ginny had yet to tell her family who was writing to her. She didn't know how they would react and wanted Draco there when she did tell them.
"Ginny dear would you...." Mrs. Weasley stopped in mid-sentence when she saw the note her daughter was holding close to her heart. "Oh my, is that another one from Mr. Wonderful? That's great! Who is this mystery man?"
"Can't tell you mum," said Ginny, still smiling from the note.
"So all you're tell your family is that he's fighting in the war," asked Mrs. Weasley, but it was more of a statement.
"Yes, he's going on a major assignment soon," said Ginny happily. She sounded like a mother bragging about her child. "I so happy for him."
"Molly! I'm home, and Fred and George are with me!" yelled Mr. Weasley from the door.
"Author, Fred, George," cried Mrs. Weasley. "I've missed you so much. She swept Fred and George into giant bear hugs. "Fred, how are you? And George, my you look tired. Oh, my babies."
"For the last time! I'm Fred and he's George. And you call yourself our mother!" yelled George, a hit of sarcasm in his voice.
"Shut up you two," said Ginny from behind everyone. "You know very well you're saying that just to fool mum."
"GINNY!!!!!" yelled Fred and George at the same time. They ran up to their little sister and gave her a hug that could rival their mother's.
"Fred...can't breath...need oxygen," whispered Ginny as she squirmed in her brother's firm grasp.
"Sorry Ginny-bear, we're just..."
"So happy to see you, that all," finished Fred for George. They were always finishing each other's sentences.
"Yes well, I've missed you too," said Ginny. She forgot about the letter in her hand and before she could hide it Fred had it in his hand.
"Well, well, well, what do we have here," said Fred.
"Why, it looks like another letter to Ginny from her lover-boy," said George.
"Give it back," yelled Ginny as she chased Fred and George around the house.
"We should make copies and take them to the office," yelled George as he ran from Ginny.
"Great idea George," said Fred as he took a closer look. What the letter said made him pause and become serious. "Ginny, this guy really care about you."
"Yes, I know, and I care about him," said Ginny as she snatched the letter away from Fred.
"What'd the letter say, Fred," asked George as he walked up behind the two.
"Something along the lines of, 'I care more for you than anyone else in my life. I'd give my life for you. I can't wait to get home and when I mean home I mean you,' things along those lines," said Fred as he focused on a piece of the floor.
"Wow, our little sis is growing up and falling in love," said George as he looked at Ginny in an adoring way.
"Well...I wouldn't say love," said Ginny blushing slightly.
"I would say love," said Fred. "Tell me Ginny, do you really care for him? With all your heart?"
"Yeah," said Ginny, smiling down at the letter she held in her hand. "I really do"
"Just be careful Ginny," said George, his joking side showing through again. "I'd hate to have to kill the guy if he turns out to be a jerk."
"Don't worry, I don't think he's going to be a jerk." Ginny looked back down at the letter she held in her hands. She raced up to her room and lifted a floorboard. Inside her secret hideaway was an old, small box. He lifted the lid, inside were other letters that Draco had sent her. Very gently she kissed the newest letter and placed it in the box with the rest. "I love you Draco."
She closed the lid to the box and put the wooded floorboard back in place. "Ginny, come down her and visit with your brothers," yelled Mrs. Wesley.
"Coming mum." Ginny bounded down the stares, thinking of Draco and when he would be home. She knew her family wouldn't care for him but she didn't care. She loved him. She prayed that he loved her. When the day came that he would show up on her doorstep she would face it head on. All she could think of the rest of the afternoon was that day. The day when he would come home and sweep her up in his arms. She couldn't wait for it.
