Spilt Ginger

Chapter Three

Draco sighed as he moved down the stairs and into the common room. It seems most people had left early for breakfast today. He sighed again, lately school had taken on a slow dreadful felling of day over and over and over. He was so tired. Even Goyle's cousin Carolina who had popped up at the beginning of this year was now having trouble breaking him out of the cycle. He plopped down on the couch and noticed that the school news, which Slytherins almost never read was all but gone.. normally they had about 50 extra copies that they used to stuff the fire. Today only 2 were left in the large basket that showed up every Friday at midnight. Something good must be in it. He grabbed the paper and leaned back and froze. On the front page was the most beautiful picture of a female he had ever seen. She was gorgeous, well endowed, with a thin waist, pale flawlessly perfect skin, bright eyes that shined with depth and intelligence, and her legs.... Her legs looked longer than a mans dreams. He pulled his eyes off of her to read the caption.

" ' Virginia Ginger-Belladonna Weasley, Author of Spilt Ginger' "

Draco froze. Weasley. The Weasley brat looked like this? She could have been able to hide it under all her hand-me-down clothing... but oh my, not in his wildest dreams would he have thought she looked like this under the baggie quidditch shirts. He let his eyes wander over the picture again trying to imprint it into his memory so that like oh so many more gyes in the school they could devour her in their dreams after all, how else would someone like him, a Slytherin and sworn enemy of all things good supposedly, get near to a fallen angel like her. He smiled after deciding he had it to memory and looked around on the floor for the copies of the paper where guys like Goyle had just pulled out her picture and tossed the rest on the floor. He was once again shocked to not see any copies on the ground... this meant that her article must actually be good also.. He went back to the paper and began to read.

Had anyone been in the common room they would have saw what started out as the Malfoy smirk on his perfectly cute pale face slowly, with each line he read turn into a whole, full blown actual smile, something that caressed his face seldom, but when it did It broke women's hearts and made boys actually question their sexuality. Unfortunately no one was around to see this smile... though with the advents that would slowly be unfolding in the future of this school year the face would be caressed by the soft sweet smile many many times more, but the pale boy didn't know this as he let his eyes linger on the fire as he folded his paper and he ran through comments in his mind. It took a couple of minutes before his smile faded back into his smirk and he jumped up and headed to breakfast and headed to a certain red head with legs longer than a mans dreams.

Virginia sighed. Ron was a good 50 feet behind her with the other two members of the Dream Team grumbling so loud that she could hear him. She ignored him as she headed into the final stretch of hall between hear and the Great Hall. She smiled as she saw the cute blond that had terrorized her for the better part of her years at Hogwarts was also walking straight across from her. When His eyes landed on her a smirk... or maybe more of a small smile slipped onto his face. She continued walking. At the doors to the great hall they met up. Ron still behind her grumbling.

"If I might give you a complement Virginia, before you head inside and hear it from everyone else?" He asked her. She froze. A compliment from Draco. She had thought the small smile that was playing on his lips was because of a chance to torment her.

"Certainly Mal- Draco."

"The article was great. The associations between yourself and Snape's mistreated Ginger was perfectly beautiful, I've never read an article in the school News I liked more than yours, and the picture of yourself was grand."

Virginia was stunned. "Thank you Draco. That means a lot coming from you."

" No Thank you, and if you don't mind me saying you look splendid." He said and then, before she could say anything hew went into the Great Hall. She heard Ron say something else and ignored him as she took a breath and walked into the great hall.

Immediately whispers broke out and people pulled out their articles and passed them around to people who hadn't the sense to grab one in the common room.

Professor Snape started it first standing up and slowly clapping. It slowly moved down the Teachers table, and first down the Slytherin and Huffelpuff tables, and finally caught on at the Ravenclaw and Gryffindor tables.

She smiled and said a Thank you that was pretty much lost in the noise and moved to sit at her normal spot, the chair closet to the teachers table.

Dumbledore waited for the last 3 gryffindors to slip in and take their seats.

" Apparently we have all read Miss Weasley's article and loved it. I cannot blame anyone for this, I too loved it. As for her request, I will grant it though she will not be gave her new house by sitting under the sorting hat again. Miss Weasley will come up here and she will shoot 4 arrows, depending upon how many and what flags the arrows go through her new house will be chosen, These arrows are not normal arrows, Miss Weasley can aim where ever she wants, the arrows will go where her personality tells them to. Miss if you will come up here we will re sort you."

She walked slowly up to Dumbledore and......
