~*I still don't own any of the Harry Potter characters. All I really own is a really evil cat that has given me twelve, yes, twelve scratches. And he only has back claws. Evil cat, I swear! So, don't sue, all right? All right…*~
Wow, I completely forgot about this story! So sorry that I haven't updated! Man, I wasn't planning on continuing it, but since you guys seem to like it…Hope this chapter makes up for the long wait!
Ginny was walking back to her next class, Potions, when she heard, no rather sensed a presence behind her. She quickly whipped her head around to see who was behind her. She groaned. It was Malfoy. Why does he always pop up at the worst times?
"Malfoy, what do you want?" She sighed. If she had to spend a lot of time with him on this trip, she would be very mad.
"Am I not allowed to walk these corridors? Besides, I need to inform the Head of my House about this manic little trip that Dumbledore has decided to make us go on," he sneered. Head of his house? That would be Snape, then. Figures…maybe if I run I can get to Potions without having to talk to him anymore…she thought. "I'm surprised that you're even allowed to go…You know, being poor as dirt and all…" he trailed off with a smirk.
Ginny was smart enough to not catch his bait. She wasn't about to get in a fight with him and be late to Potions. Snape would most definitely give her a detention and take off points. And she really did not want that. So, she just gave Malfoy a glare, turned around, and kept on walking to Potions.
However, Malfoy was not going to leave her alone that easily. "What? Not going to get mad like your stupid brother? Just going to leave like that? Of course, that's probably what got that idiotic brother of yours killed, right? Not being able to control the Weasley temper?"
OK. He had gone
too far. Way too far. A loud *SMACK* could be heard echoing throughout
the halls. She had gone up to him and slapped him the hardest that she could.
"Don't ever talk about Percy like that, you arse."
*RING*
She groaned. The bell. Now, on top of getting points taken off for smacking a Prefect, she was going to get a detention for being late. This was not Ginny's day. She chanced a glance up at Malfoy.
His pale cheek was very red and had a handprint on it. He looked quite similar to when Hermione had lost her temper and slapped him back in Ginny's second year. That was one of the best memories that she had of Malfoy. Of course, the time when Moody had turned him into a ferret had to be the best.
"Weasley…"
"Yes, Malfoy?" she said in a small voice. She knew she shouldn't have lost her temper and slapped him, but…well, whenever someone talked about Percy she usually lost her temper and it usually wasn't very pretty…
"Twenty-five points from Gryffindor for slapping a Prefect and a detention tonight. I will inform you of the where and when later," his cheek was still very red, but if you looked closely, you could see amusement in his eyes. So, she thinks she can get away with slapping a Malfoy? She'll see…Oh, yes, she shall see…he thought.
"OK," she managed to get out. Malfoy turned and walked towards the Potions dungeon with Ginny a few feet behind him. (A/N: Wouldn't you just love to get a behind view? I know I would! Anyways, continue and ignore the crazily obsessed Malfoy-lover…)
Ginny slowly walked in the Common Room after her last class of the day and flopped down onto a seat beside Harry, Hermione, and Ron. Harry and Ron were playing a game of Chess. Three guesses as to who was winning. Hermione was, as usual, reading a book on Transfiguration. I swear, that girl is going to be way too smart. She needs a life…or a boyfriend.
Harry, seeing that Ginny was in a bad mood, turned to her and gave her a small smile. "What's up, Gin?" he asked.
"I have a Detention tonight and again tomorrow," she moaned as she put her hands over her eyes and sighed.
"What? Why?" Ron asked.
"IslappedMalfoy," she mumbled.
"Uh, Gin, we couldn't really hear you…" Hermione said.
Ginny sighed again. She took her hands off her eyes and looked at Harry. "I have a Detention tonight because I slapped Malfoy," she blushed. Now that it was over, she could see that it certainly wasn't the best thing to do.
The trio was shocked. Hermione being shocked that she would have the nerve to slap a Prefect, let alone Malfoy, and Ron and Harry shocked that Malfoy had gotten beat up by a girl.
"Go Ginny!" Harry and Ron shouted.
Hermione gave the two boys a stern look and they quickly quieted. She always seemed to have that affect on them. She needed to teach Ginny that sometime. "Virginia Weasley, what on Earth would possess you to slap Malfoy?!" she screeched. Obviously she had forgotten that she had once done that just a few years ago.
"Hermione, I seem to recall you slapping a certain Slytherin in our third year…" Harry said with a sly grin. The bushy haired Prefect blushed.
"Well, that was…Well…that's not the point!"
"Go on, Gin…" Ron said. He was eager to hear what the pale-faced Slytherin had said to set off his normally calm little sister.
"Well, after that meeting with Dumbledore I was walking to Potions. Then Malfoy just popped up out of nowhere and started following. He said he needed to tell Snape about the field trip thing. Well, he started insulting our family and I just started walking towards Potions because I didn't want to be late, you know? So, then he started talking about Percy…" she finished.
The trio put on sympathetic looks. Harry pulled her over into a hug. "That jerk. He shouldn't talk about families. Look at his! His dad's a freakin' Death Eater!" he shouted. Ginny just sighed and leaned into Harry. It was nice to be able to be near him without sticking her elbow in a butter dish. She grimaced as she thought of that.
"I know, I know. I shouldn't have lost my temper, though. He gave me a detention and took of twenty-five points…"
Hermione, being the smart one and noticing every little detail, said, "Wait. He only gave you one detention?" Ginny nodded. "Well, where did the other one come from then?"
"Oh…well I was late to Potions and Snape gave me one."
"Stupid Snape…" Ron said.
"Yeah…well I'm pretty hungry, so why don't we head down to Dinner? Ron, I'm sure you're starved, too." Ginny said as she slowly got up off the couch and stretched.
Ron, suddenly noticing that he was indeed hungry, agreed. The four walked out of the Portrait and down to the Great Hall.
Ginny was just finishing up her mashed potatoes when a large eagle owl flew down to her. It started drinking out of her goblet and dropped a letter down. Of course, when it flew back outside it accidentally stepped in her potatoes.
Man, and I wanted to eat those, too…She looked at the letter. "Aren't you going to open that, Gin?" Harry said.
"When the time feels right I will." she said. (A/N: My friend does that all the time. Like, one time she dropped a quarter and was just staring at it…) Slowly she picked it up and unrolled it.
-Weasley-
Your detention will be at 10:00 tonight. Meet me in the Potions dungeon. You will be cleaning down there. Wear your regular clothes, seeing as you'll be getting them dirty, but it's not like they could be any filthier.
-Draco Malfoy-
Just like Malfoy to be a git in a letter. She sighed. Seeing that Harry and Ron were looking at her curiously she said, "It's from Malfoy. My detention is at 10 and I have to clean out the Potions dungeon." she moaned.
Harry sympathetically patted her arm. "It'll be alright, Gin. If he so much as touches you, tell me or Ron and we'll beat him up," he smiled.
"Ron or I," Hermione corrected.
"Okay, well you could tell 'Mione, too, I guess…"
