"Harry! Why…what are you doing here?" What started as a surprised statement soon became an annoyed question. "It's midnight! What the hell are you doing in my bedroom!" She kept her voice down but her anger raised it a bit.
"At least someone was in your bedroom! Seeing as you weren't." He stood up and walked over to her so they could whisper and not disturb anyone.
"I didn't receive any notification that you were now my father and had the rights to see what I'm up too or not." Her hands were clenched into fists against her sides.
"I gained the rights when I fell in love with you!" Ginny faltered back a step. Both pairs of eyes, a moment ago flaring with anger towards each other both softened up.
"In…in love with me?" Her voice caught in her throat.
"Yes in love with you. Ginny I realized I've made a terrible mistake growing up. To look the complete other way from you when I was the only one you looked at for all those years…I realized how much I cherished the fact that you wanted me." He stepped close to her so their chests were touching and took her hands in his. "How much I needed that knowledge that someone loved me." He looked down into her eyes and she looked up. He loved her. He truly loved her. Maybe she was wrong about him? Maybe…maybe she still did love him? Maybe-
His lips caught hers again. Softly he suckled her top lip. She felt his tongue once again enter her mouth and she frowned. It didn't feel right. Yet she didn't pull away. 'You love him you love him you love him' she told herself. And to prove it, she pushed herself closer to him. Wrapping her arms around his neck. She let him molest her mouth in a disgusting way. She wanted to scream at him to leave her alone, yet she wouldn't. If he loved her, then she would love him.
"O, bid me leap, rather than marry Paris, From off the battlements of any tower, Or walk in thievish ways, or bit me lurk where serpents are; chain me with roaring bears, or hide me nightly in a charnel house, o'er-cover'd quite with dead men's rattling bones, With reeky shanks and yellow chapless skulls; Or bid me go into a new-made grace, and hide me with a dead man in his shroud-things that, to hear them told, have made me tremble-And I will do it without fear or doubt to live an unstain'd wife to my sweet love."
Ginny sprang away from him. Harry looked at her startled. She backed up away from him. The words of Juliet still ringing in her ears.
"Ginny…?" Harry softly called. She looked away from him afraid to meet his gaze.
"I-I think it's time for bed Harry." She starred at the floor. Burning a hole into it's wooden planks. For a moment he didn't move. Then she heard the heavy steps of his feet as he walked to the door. He stopped for a moment to whisper in her ear.
"If you think he'll love you…your wrong. To him your just a night time shag. Whatever your hoping to find from him…you wont." He spit the words so venomously she questioned whether or not this was the same Harry that had professed his love a moment ago. She shrank back. His angry heat burning her skin. Letting him walk past her without a word to him she shut the door behind. Not waiting for his footsteps to die away she ran to her bed and fell upon it. Allowing tears to wash her to sleep.
A streak of sunlight entered the room, and hit the sleeping girl. Old tears reflected the light as red curls dangled, absorbing the rays. One delicate hand moved to rub her eyes, as she rolled over onto her back. She wasn't awake, yet, she wasn't asleep neither. She merely lay still, her mind furiously working.
Harry loves me.
I don't love Harry.
Draco's changed, at least, I think.
Maybe Harry's just looking out for me? Looking out for what though? It's not like I'm in love with Draco, or even that I like him. I just think he deserves another chance. Though…he has been awful to Harry and my family forever…
"It's just that…no one gives me a chance to be me. They hear my name and link me with my father, and then it's done. An image of me is created and they hate it already. So I just stick to peoples hateful ideas of me. It's easier than trying to prove them wrong." Remembering his words helped her remember why she wasn't angry with him for his past. "The blood of youth burns not with such excess as gravity's revolt to wantonness." Had been his whispered words on the subject.
"Folly in fools bears not so strong a note as fool'ry in the wise when wit doth dote." Had been her reply.
Ginny sighed in contentment.
A sudden knock at the door made her jump.
"Ginny? It's Hermoine. Ginny it's time to get up!" She clutched her blanket close to her chest. Smoothing the hair out of her face she groaned.
"What time is it?"
"Nearly eleven!" Hermoine answered.
"Eleven…Eleven!" Ginny scrambled out of bed and threw open the door. She was supposed to meet Draco in an hour at the café! Pushing past Hermoine she quickly thanked the girl and ran downstairs. She hadn't noticed that she was wearing her cloths from last night until she was at the bottom of the stair way. Silently cursing she turned and ran back up to her room. Grabbing a towel she forgot about breakfast and ran to the shower. Thankfully no one was in it as she bolted the door and stripped down. Never had she moved so fast and she wondered exactly why she was. Wrapping the towel around her, she turned on the water and waited for it to heat up. She grabbed her toothbrush, went to the bathroom, then ran back to the shower. Sticking a leg in she found it was a nice temperature and tossed off the towel and jumped in.
After washing her hair, body, and shaving her legs, she jumped out and dried off as much as she could. Putting her damp hair in a rough bun she wrapped the towel around her again and ran out to her room. On her way she nearly ran Harry over as he seemed to be on his way to wake her up or talk to her.
"Ginny?" he called through her door.
"Yeah?" she dropped the towel and ran around looking for something to wear. Finding her bathing suit she remembered him saying something about possibly going to a beach. She tossed it on and a white tee-shirt with a low cut slit in the front over in with a short white skirt. Looking in the mirror, she took down her hair and brushed it out. Looking at herself, she decided to leave it up in a messy bun. She wanted to add some makeup, but when she looked at her watch she saw if she didn't leave in the next five minutes she was going to be late. Instead she threw on some lip gloss and a touch of water proof mascara and threw on her sandals.
"…you think so?"
"I'm sorry Harry," she briskly walked over and opened the door. "I didn't hear you." Harry looked her over.
"You look really nice today."
"Thanks." She said pushing past him.
"Anyways, I said it'd be nice if maybe we went to the movies today. Would you like to go?" She stopped and turned to look at him and smiled. He stopped suddenly almost running into her. He looked hopeful.
"Gee, Harry, that'd be really nice…except I promised Claire that I'd go shopping with her in London today. Maybe tomorrow?" She looked at her watch and panicked. Even if she left now she would still be five minutes late.
"Oh, then would it be alright if I went with you guys?" She bit her lip. She really needed to get going.
"I don't think that'd be a good idea Harry…Claire just broke up with her boyfriend and well, seeing a guy right now really isn't the best thing for her. I'm sure you understand."
"But-." Ginny had had it! Reaching up she grabbed his face and kissed him hard.
"Bye!" Turning she ran out the door before he could say anything more. Looking around she ran to the broom shed and looked for her broom before she remembered it was upstairs. She cursed wildly until she saw it. Harry's Firebolt! She looked at it and smiled. If she took this she wouldn't be late at all. Heck, she might be early!
It's not your broom though. Her conscience fought with her.
But he'd let me borrow it…
Not if he knew where you were going and who you were going to see.
Well, I'll make it up to him.
What if you loose it?
Loose it. That stopped her hand from touching the hilt and she stepped back. Harry would kill her if she lost it. Hell, she would kill herself. Looking around she saw nothing that would get her there faster than her own broom. Growling she turned and started running back to the house.
"HEY! WEASLEY!" a voice called from beside the tree. Ginny stopped and looked. There, in the shadows of her tree she saw him. Leaning casually as if he'd been there all day.
"Malfoy! What are you doing here! I thought we were going to meet at the café!"
"Well, I decided to pick you up instead." He walked out to meet her. Ginny ran over to him to push him back into the shadows. "hey!"
"look, I don't know if you've forgotten…but my family really doesn't care much for your family. All it'd take is one person to see you here and both our lives would be over."
"Alright, alright." He said laughing lightly. She smiled as he looked her over. "You look good today. Really good Gin." She blushed.
"Thanks," He reached out and took her hand before his mind told him she probably wouldn't like that. 'too late now.' He waited to see if she'd pull away from him. When she didn't he lead her back through the tiny patch of woods to the road on the other side. There he had a car sitting parked. She grinned and ran over to it.
"You're Hot, and you've got a car. What made me such a lucky girl?" He made a mock bow, and opened the door for her. "Why thank you my good sir,"
"Any time miss." Ginny watched as Draco shut her door for her, ran around and hopped in his own side. "So, where would you like to go?" She raised an eye brow at the boy and grinned shyly.
"I don't know, you're the one that insisted we do something."
"Good," He said putting the car into gear. "Because I had the day all planned out." When she opened her mouth to argue he added "I just thought I'd play the polite date and ask if you had anything special in mind." Ginny laughed.
"Well, I did bring my bathing suit." Draco turned and eyed the navy blue bikini that was very visible through the shirt. Along with the Navy blue bottoms.
"Oh really? I thought you were just matching in the undergarments for my benefit." She looked down and blushed.
"I didn't realize you could see through my outfit. Maybe I should go back and change." To stop her from carrying out that same action Draco quickly locked the doors and started driving.
"Nonsense. Since we happen to be going to the beach sometime today, it's perfectly acceptable. If anyone says anything I'll simply curse them to another country." He looked over again and smiled. Ginny realized today was going to be interesting.
Harry watched out the window as Ginny ran to the shed. He watched her as she came out and stomped a bit before turning to run back inside. He wasn't smiling, or happy for that matter. He was just watching her. Observing the way her skirt blew around as she ran, the way you could see clear through her shirt as her chest bounced up and down with each stride. She was indeed very lovely. She'd make a beautiful wife, and mother. Harry pictured her laying in bed next to him. Naked, the sweat from the previous night of love making gluing her body to his. A tiny smirk raised off the corner of his lips. Was she a virgin? Harry wondered. Had any man known the feel of her flesh before he would? Had any man kissed those perk breasts? Felt the warmth of the heat from between her legs? He blinked as she stopped running. She looked towards the giant willow tree. He didn't know what she was looking at, because he saw nothing. He watched as she ran in that direction. He almost had her where he wanted her. She had willingly kissed him after all, and he knew she still had feelings for him. And if for some chance she didn't, well…he'd make her. Harry looked closer at the tree and saw Draco Malfoy leaning against it.
He cursed softly.
Malfoy.
It figures that he'd be the one to intervene with Harry's plans. He had hoped his little chat with Ginny last night would make her hate Draco and stay away from him at all costs…yet there they were. Talking, flirting, walking together.
He had to do something.
"There's no way he's going to ruin this chance for me." Harry smiled as he thought of the child. His child. Ginny's child. She'd have to stay with him after that. If he knew Ginny at all, she'd feel obligated to marry him, for the baby's sake. And then it would be his.
All his.
The treasure that none of the Weasley members knew they possessed.
"Favorite animal?" Draco asked. They had been driving for a good twenty minutes and recently started playing this little 'get to know you' game.
"Muggle world or Wizard world?" Ginny was turned in her seat facing him, idly playing with a lock of hair that had fallen out and she studied him. The way his lips moved when he talked, the way his eye brows arched when he was surprised, The way his eyes gave nothing away unless he willed them to. The way he smirked ever so sexily when they flirted.
"Both."
"Hmm…well…I'd say Hippopotamus for Muggle, and…Dragon for Wizard." She giggled as his eye brows arched again. "You?"
"Giraffe for Muggle, and I agree, Dragon for Wizard." He smirked once again. "You know…Draco means Dragon in Latin."
"Oh really?" He cast a quick glance at her to see her reaction. She was smiling at him that he felt bold.
"Why of course…does this mean you like me?"
"I'm surprised you'd have to ask." Her tone was semi serious.
"Well, I did make your life a living hell for all those years. I wasn't sure if maybe,"
"Well, make it up to me." He raised a single eye brow and smirked at her.
"What exactly did you have in mind?" Ginny looked away giving the innocent look. Draco loved it. He loved how she could look so sexy one minute that he had trouble not pulling over right then and kissing her madly, and then the next look as if she'd never heard the word sex before in her life.
"Oh, nothing in particular…just perhaps…a few more dates, to make up the misery you put me through." She mocked the word misery to show him she wasn't serious.
"Your command is mine to obey! And gladly such I'll comply." They both giggled and Ginny looked out the window, resting her hand on the arm rest attached to her seat. Draco looked over at her and grinned as she took so much enthusiasm examining the trees, houses, and beaches as they passed by. Looking down he saw her hand as her fingers picked at one of the nails. Reaching over he took her hand into his. Ginny looked over and down at the hands and then up to Draco. Blushing she grinned and held onto his hand also.
They drove in silence for ten more minutes before Draco pulled into a tiny parking lot. Made only to fit several cars. "We're here." He stated as he turned off the car and slid his hand out of Ginnys. Opening the doors, they both got out.
"Draco! Where are we?" The silver haired god walked over to her side of the car and picked up her hand once again.
"Paradise isle."
"Paradise what?" He began leading her through the thick woods on a tiny path not traveled by many.
"Paradise Isle. It's a…well…It's hard to explain." He pushed through branches, pulling the back for Ginny to get through. "It's like a muggle country club, only better?" When he saw she had no idea what he was talking about he gave up. "You'll see."
"I hope you right about this…I'd hate to go anywhere fancy looking like this." He waved the comment off as he pulled her along.
"here" he said, coming at last to a giant house along the coast line. It was surrounded by palm trees and hammocks. Many people lounged about, or swam in the sea or, as far as Ginny could see, were doing multiple activities inside. He laughed at the fascinated expression on her face. "Come on, lets get inside first." Speechlessly she followed him up the stairs to the main door.
"Hello! Welcome back to Paradise Isle. Mr. Malfoy! So nice to see you again! You've not been about in a bit, we were afraid you'd chosen somewhere else to stay!" A short, pudgy bald man sprung out from behind a desk to greet Draco and Ginny. He wore a casual Hawaiian shirt, with some shorts and had a face that was used to smiling. Ginny's first impression of the money kissing person soon changed as she saw him up close. His eyes were wrinkled with many years of laughter. His mouth had a pattern that you knew was from naturally smiling and not faking it. Draco bent over and gave the man a quick hug.
"How could I forget you old John!" He clapped the old man on the back and turned to Ginny. He ushered her forward next to him for introductions. "John, This is Miss. Virginia Weasley."
"Ginny, please,"
"Ginny, this is Mr. Kalikow." Jean stuck out his hand and kissed Ginny's fingers.
"Jean, if you don't mind miss." Jean clasped his hands together and looked at the couple. "So how long are you going to be here? We have plenty of rooms if you'd like to stay the night?" They both blushed and giggled a bit.
"No thanks Jean, I think for our first date we'd just like to cruise around a bit, Show Ginny the place."
"Ah, I see." Jean grinned knowingly. "Well, if you need anything at all, please don't hesitate to call me or someone from the staff." Draco waved the man off and led Ginny to the back room.
"well milady, what would you like to do first?"
A/N: Ok, I know you want to hear all the juicy details about Ginny's date with Draco… and you're probably going to kill me for stopping here lol , but do you know how hard it is to write real time? Anyways, the juiciest details will be in the next chapter.
Again, please review!

"At least someone was in your bedroom! Seeing as you weren't." He stood up and walked over to her so they could whisper and not disturb anyone.

Ginny sprang away from him. Harry looked at her startled. She backed up away from him. The words of Juliet still ringing in her ears.
"Ginny…?" Harry softly called. She looked away from him afraid to meet his gaze.

"Hmm…well…I'd say Hippopotamus for Muggle, and…Dragon for Wizard." She giggled as his eye brows arched again. "You?"
"Giraffe for Muggle, and I agree, Dragon for Wizard." He smirked once again. "You know…Draco means Dragon in Latin."
"Oh really?" He cast a quick glance at her to see her reaction. She was smiling at him that he felt bold.
"Why of course…does this mean you like me?"
"I'm surprised you'd have to ask." Her tone was semi serious.
"Well, I did make your life a living hell for all those years. I wasn't sure if maybe,"
"Well, make it up to me." He raised a single eye brow and smirked at her.

"Paradise what?" He began leading her through the thick woods on a tiny path not traveled by many.
"Paradise Isle. It's a…well…It's hard to explain." He pushed through branches, pulling the back for Ginny to get through. "It's like a muggle country club, only better?" When he saw she had no idea what he was talking about he gave up. "You'll see."
"I hope you right about this…I'd hate to go anywhere fancy looking like this." He waved the comment off as he pulled her along.
"here" he said, coming at last to a giant house along the coast line. It was surrounded by palm trees and hammocks. Many people lounged about, or swam in the sea or, as far as Ginny could see, were doing multiple activities inside. He laughed at the fascinated expression on her face. "Come on, lets get inside first." Speechlessly she followed him up the stairs to the main door.
"Hello! Welcome back to Paradise Isle. Mr. Malfoy! So nice to see you again! You've not been about in a bit, we were afraid you'd chosen somewhere else to stay!" A short, pudgy bald man sprung out from behind a desk to greet Draco and Ginny. He wore a casual Hawaiian shirt, with some shorts and had a face that was used to smiling. Ginny's first impression of the money kissing person soon changed as she saw him up close. His eyes were wrinkled with many years of laughter. His mouth had a pattern that you knew was from naturally smiling and not faking it. Draco bent over and gave the man a quick hug.
"How could I forget you old John!" He clapped the old man on the back and turned to Ginny. He ushered her forward next to him for introductions. "John, This is Miss. Virginia Weasley."
"Ginny, please,"
"Ginny, this is Mr. Kalikow." Jean stuck out his hand and kissed Ginny's fingers.
"Jean, if you don't mind miss." Jean clasped his hands together and looked at the couple. "So how long are you going to be here? We have plenty of rooms if you'd like to stay the night?" They both blushed and giggled a bit.
"No thanks Jean, I think for our first date we'd just like to cruise around a bit, Show Ginny the place."
"Ah, I see." Jean grinned knowingly. "Well, if you need anything at all, please don't hesitate to call me or someone from the staff." Draco waved the man off and led Ginny to the back room.
"well milady, what would you like to do first?"
