Thanks for the uber helpful review Amy! I am trying to get the talking spaced out, but it doesn't always upload right…-cries-
Chapter 3
The train pulled up to the station and everyone piled off. Hagrid was yelling for the first years again and for once it didn't make Ginny smile. She was to busy being pissed off. So what if her hair was blonde? Draco liked it… Ginny shook her hand slightly, why did she care if Draco liked it?
Since when do I call Malfoy Draco? Ginny thought angrily, He is a good for nothing Ferret that is really good at kissing! Ginny put a hand to her lips and pushed past some poor 4th year. She walked up to a carriage and got inside, hoping to avoid the Dream Team, at least for a little while. As she sat down another person entered the carriage, it was Colin Creevey.
"Hey Ginny, I love you hair! Would you like to be a model for my calendar?" Colin burst out suddenly making Ginny stare at him. Colin had been taking pictures for a long time and sometime during his 3rd year started making calendars for the different houses. For some reason the calendars were very popular, but Ginny had never been asked to be in one.
"Alright Colin, I guess I'll do it." Ginny smiled at him, being in a calendar of Colin's would piss of her stupid prat of brother; Ron, plus it would shock everyone else. She held out her hand to Colin, which he took and they shook on it. She grinned slightly, she could never be mad at Colin, he was far too nice. Colin grinned back at her and tilted his head slightly. He had grown taller, just like everyone else had; he wasn't as tall as Draco though. Colin was about 5'9 and his blonde hair had turned to a pale brown over the years.
"Hey Ginny, I heard a rumor that you told off the Dream Team…then again I also heard some doors slamming." Colin pointed at her and winked. Ginny hung her head slightly and started laughing.
"That's not all I did!" She leaned in closer so her face was close to Colin's. "I kissed the Ferret!"
Colin jumped with surprise, "Bloody hell! Wait till everyone hears about that! It will be all over the school." He grinned, he and Ginny were best friends, and he was one of the few people that did understand her. "But don't worry, I won't tell anyone. Malfoy would kill me if he knew I was spreading the word."
Ginny snorted faintly and leaned back, she hmphed faintly as the carriage came to a stop infront of the school. She and Colin got out of the carriage and walked into the castle. They made their way through the other students to the Great Hall, Ginny's stomach grumbled slightly with hunger. All the talking had made her hungry and she planned on eating what she wanted this time, not what someone shoved onto her plate. She sat down in an empty place at the Gryffindor table, just as Colin sat down across from her. Soon other students were piling into the Great Hall like a bunch of hungry ants attacking a picnic.
"How about later tonight I start taking pictures of you, is that ok?" Colin asked, but Ginny wasn't really paying attention. Her eyes were sweeping over the masses looking for one person, that person was Draco. Stop it Ginny! He is a Slytherin…Ginny scolded herself mentally But wouldn't it just make everyone mad if I hung out with him? Suddenly there was a hand infront of her face, she blinked and stared at Colin.
"Hm? Yeah that would be fine." Ginny snapped slightly, Colin just simply laughed.
"Looking for your Ferret?"
"I am not…I was just looking to see if Ron was here yet," Ginny lied.
"Sure…" Colin chuckled and stared up at the head table. Dumbledore had arrived and so had the first years. Soon the sorting had begun and the first years were at their new house's table. Ginny hadn't paid attention to any of it, however; she did pay attention when food appeared on her plate. She grinned and began to eat quickly, a habit she had picked up over the summer. She was so used to bolting her food and then running out of the room she didn't think twice about eating fast. Colin on the other hand stared at her as he ate his food slowly. Ginny blinked and blushed faintly. She mumbled a faint apology and kept on eating. Colin just shook his head in amusement, Ginny may have the body of a model, but she sure didn't eat like one!
"I'm going to the common room, see ya." Ginny stood up and walked out of the Great Hall. She walked down the hallways, not paying attention to where she was going. Her mind kept drifting back to the kiss Draco had given her. Suddenly she felt herself crash into something hard and human.
"Watch it Ginny," Draco sneered down at her.
Ginny narrowed her eyes and looked up at Draco, "Or what Ferret? You'll cry?"
Draco growled and grabbed Ginny's shoulders rather tightly, "I thought we covered the part where my name is Draco, not Ferret."
"I must have missed that class, Ferret, because I don't seem to remember ever agreeing to call you Draco."
"Very funny Weasel," Draco tightened his grip and Ginny let out a small whimper. She hadn't meant to, but it escaped before she could hold it back. Draco smirked, "So Weasel does have feelings. I was beginning to think that she turned to ice."
Ginny tried to wrench free of his grip, "Let me go Ferret."
"Draco."
"Let me go…Draco!"
Draco laughed and let Ginny go, "I hope you learned this lesson. I would hate to have to kill you." He waved slightly at her and walked off down the hallway. Ginny leaned against the wall and took a deep breath. Just being close to Draco was intoxicating, she was glad he was gone though. She rubbed her shoulders slightly and began walking down the hall again. A nice warm shower would calm her, things like that always did!
