Chapter One
"I can not stand that Weasley girl!" Narcissa Malfoy was fuming when she Apparated into the large living room of Malfoy Manor.
"What happened this time, Mother?" Draco, who was sitting on one of the couches reading a book on the Dark Arts, asked his mother.
Narcissa sighed dramatically and sat perched on an armchair. "Every man, young and old, was drooling over Virginia Weasley today at Diagon Alley, trying to woo her-right in front of her father no less! Really, they treat her as if she was covered in thousands of Galleons!"
"What's the problem with that, Mother? She's young, and she is quite attractive."
Narcissa gave her son a stern look. "Don't ever say that in my presence again," She snapped, "Besides, what has she ever done to get this attention? I've done so much more than her...why aren't men going after me?"
Draco shrugged. "Maybe because you're still married to father."
"Only in law," Narcissa huffed, "Besides, that shouldn't stop them. I'm as beautiful as Weasley...."
"Well what do you want me to do?" Draco asked her. His mother always wanted him to do something for her.
Narcissa jumped up and ran to the couch her son was at, kneeling before him. "I want you to take away her beauty." She whispered.
"What?" Draco was taken aback. Take away her beauty? How was that possible?
"Yes....Make a potion, one that will make her unattractive to all men she comes across from then on." Narcissa smiled as she made this plan, "You must slip it to her somehow."
"I'll find a way..."
::One Week Later::
"I can't believe that Christmas break is already over!" Ginny said to her friend, Emily, as they walked into the Great Hall.
"I know....It seems like it just start-"
"Hello, Ginny." Collin Creevy interrupted Emily.
"Oh, hello Collin." Ginny said with a small smile.
"Excuse me, Creevy, but I was talking to my friend."
Collin ignored Emily. Everyone did. Sometimes it was hard being the best friend of "the most adored girl in the school."
"How was your break?" Collin asked Ginny.
"Um, it was fine," Ginny answered, "But, Collin, if you'd please excuse me, Emily and I were talking."
Collin finally looked over at Emily. "Oh, hey there Em. Have you lost weight?"
Emily glared at him. "Get lost, Creevy."
Collin shrugged and, with one last wink towards Ginny, headed off towards the Gryffindor table.
"Gin, I really do hate him." Emily said with a small laugh.
"So do I, so do I."
"So how do you put up with it?" Emily asked as they, too, walked to the Gryffindor table.
"I've acquired a lot of patience in the past few years." Ginny joked.
"I could never be you," Emily admitted as the two of them sat down (far away from Collin Creevy), "I can't put up with that kind of attention."
Ginny shrugged her shoulders. "It's not so bad. Sometimes it's a bit flattering." She admitted.
"And getting all of the gifts must be great!" Emily added, "But I would like to know one thing."
"What's that?" Ginny asked.
"Do you still like Harry?"
Ginny looked down the table. Harry was sitting with her brother, Ron, and their other friend Hermione. Harry always did look good, even if his hair was messy (never one in place), and his glasses were taped in the middle (not enough time in the day to repair it with a simple spell, huh Harry?). Maybe it was the fame, maybe it was the fact every girl once liked him, but Ginny had always found herself infatuated with him.
"Well?" Emily asked. She too was looking down the table at him. She would never admit it, but she had a crush on Harry, too.
"I guess I do," Ginny admitted, leaning back, "He is quite-"
Ginny stopped abruptly when she saw Draco Malfoy standing next to her. Emily noticed, too, and raised her eyebrows. "What are you doing here?" She asked him.
"I just came here to talk to the beautiful Virginia...." Draco said smoothly, taking a seat on the bench next to her, "You really have become a beautiful young woman."
"Well, thank you." Ginny said. She was confused...Malfoy was never nice to her.
Draco took her hand. "No, thank you, mon cherie." He kissed it lightly.
"Wow, Malfoy...you sure do try hard!" Emily pointed out.
Draco took one look at her and said, "It must be in the water."
It was true. Emily, like Pansy Parkinson, was a bit of a try hard. Of course it was because she wanted to be noticed next to Ginny. Unfortunately it never worked out that way.
"Well, I'll leave the two of you to talk now," Draco said, letting go of Ginny's hand and standing up, "I'll see you tomorrow, my darling Virginia."
"Well that was odd...." Ginny commented, watching Draco walk back to the Slytherin table.
"Yes it was." Emily agreed with a nod.
Ginny took a sip of her water. "I wonder what was up with him? He's never really talked to me...pleasantly before."
"Well, he must finally be jumping on the bandwagon." Emily told her with a smile.
"Shut up," Ginny said with a laugh, "He has to be up to something. I just know it."
"Like what?"
"I have no idea....But I'm sure it will come out eventually."
Authors Note: This is fun for me to write, and I hope that it will be fun for you to read! Please review! Constructive criticism is ALWAYS welcome, but please no flames. It doesn't make me...upset like you probably think, it just makes me laugh and it's pretty much a waste of your time. ::shrugs:: And compliments are ALWAYS FREAKING WANTED!!
