Charm sighed and slid into her own bed room and slipped into her seat in her desk. She pulled out two more velvet boxes and sighed. Blaise and Carolina's objects. She also had a few other object to be pulled out if all this didn't work, but going by Virginia and Draco, they both would at least make part of her job easy… Blaise and her, well… they had their connection already formed, now Blaise just had to… open his eyes to the past, as for Carolina… Carolina was a ditz then and she'll be a ditz now. She still had to loosen up… The fact that she was starting to look at Potter was a good thing. It followed suit. She let out a tiered breath and laid down on her bed…. Times of grave pain, and great suffering for the world…. Just great.
Virginia looked at herself in her mirror. Today was Potions and Arithmacy. She slipped on a white tank top and a the normal Hogwarts skirt and then put on her billowing potions robes. They were very large robes, but for once they were big because of demand, The more fabric you have on you in Potions was a good thing, especially because you never know when a potion will be spilt and you get splashed. She buttoned the robe all the way down, and pulled her hair into a bun.
"Virginia we need to get going to Potions that is unless you wish to be late…" Carolina yelled through her door and she grabbed her bag from the ground and slipped it over her shoulder.
"Okay I'm ready to go…"
"Good, Draco Blaise and Charm already left, you won't believe it, but this morning she gave me the coolest pendant, It's a purple lightening bolt. Cool eh?" Carolina asked pulling out a small lightening bolt on a silver chain.
"Yah, Charm Gave it to you?" Virginia asked, questions piled up in her mind but she pushed them back… and smiled when Carolina confirmed. She would think about it all later.
Draco sighed and looked up at the ceiling, shocking himself after the little… vision thing he had had He'd went to sleep with relative ease, now the hard thing to do would be to concentrate on anything else…
"Charm gave you the Dragon, didn't she?" Blaise asked and Draco felt his head snap to the other boy.
"Yes, do you know-" but he stopped when Blaise withdrew a circle much like his own on tiger-eye with a flame engraved in it.
"She gave me mine a summer ago… She told me that there's secrets wrapped around my life, did she say-"
"She gave it to me, and then suddenly I wasn't there anymore, I was somewhere else with another girl putting it around my neck. She'd been in a toga and was so beautiful that I wanted to die, and yet at the same time-"
"She was so familiar that you felt as if you knew her… Same thing here… It took me a year to finally realize the familiarity… between the girl, and Charm."
"Charm?" Draco chocked. "Mine wasn't Charm, she had the most beautiful Ginger red hair that was curly and soft and the largest…. Ginger eyesss…. Virginia that's who the girl was!" Draco busted out shocking several first years that were passing by the potions dungeon door were they stood waiting for Virginia and Carolina. Draco was so happy that he missed Blaise's sigh of relief as he slipped his circle once again under his shirt.
"Yeas Draco, who was I?" Virginia asked coming up behind them
"Virginia! You were a girl in my dreams, Come on you can join me as my potions partner. Blaise fend or yourself." Draco said and lead Virginia to the Slytherin side of the room. He pulled out her chair for her and sat next to her.
"It's a pleasure to know That I visit your dreams Draco, was I a Siren? Perhaps a veela, Did I lure ships onto the rocks?" She asked. Draco looked at her and got ready to describe the dream and stopped himself… She'd think he was crazy, No doubt about it….
" Students!" Snape barked walking into the room. Everyone sat up and waited to see who was going to get the first blast of wrath that morning. "Today were going to see how genetics works, in it's mysterious ways… Two children from the same family, only a year apart are both going to make a potion…. Then Professor McGonagal will explain one of the reasons that one will do amazingly well, wile the other will do so poor that he will likely botch the potion and ruin the classroom desks… Miss Weasley My dear if you will come up to cauldron A, and Weasley you to Cauldron B. Enjoy Minerva." Snape said and hurried from the room. Minerva smiled as she sat herself on a stool and motioned to both Virginia and Ron to take their Cauldrons.
"Just let me do it right Gin, Botch it."
"Yah and let a kid who's barely able to get an Average score beat someone who gets an Infallible… You are Dreaming Ron."
"Your not so Grand Ginny, your just little Ginny, and who cares about your bloody scoring I can beat it any day." Ron said. They were standing face to face whispering, though by looking at Virginia's flashing eyes you could tell that the small talk going on between them was harsh, though the words were probably mean, both siblings had their normal looks. Ron with his distant confused look, and Virginia with a sugary sweet smile on her crimson lips. It was hard to imagine anything but chocolate covered sweet words slipping out of her mouth.
"The both of you are to make a youth potion-"
"But Professor how on earth will we test it, I do believe GINNY is as young as she can get." Ron interrupted.
"Shut it Ron, Just because your Baby sister is smarter cuter, and all around much much better than little Ron who should know that a youth potion does not make the users mind depreciate with age, just their body… I do say Ron. It can't be you testing it, after all If your body was taken down to childhood, I do say you'd have both the mind and body of child, and none of us want to deal with a young baby Ron any more than we already have to." Both Ron and Virginia stared at each other before McGonagal snapped her finger and told them to start.
~~*~~~*DRACO*~~~*~~
It was actually beautiful watching Virginia make a potion… She has such ease with her knife slicing the dragon fly wings. Her long finger skillful at pulling out just enough wings, or leaves. She ground things easily with the actually checking it with her fingers to check the density of the grinding. With everything she did was graceful, Wile with the Weasel he fumbled actually cut himself several times added too many of certain ingredients and to big of many of the ingredients. It was apparent why Virginia had made the Infallible scoring. It was apparent that wile one student was amazing, the other tended to cut corners and hurry along the potion…
"DONE." Ron Declared looking at his potion, which was a bit to thick, and too dark of a blue.
"Mmm, I fear Ronald that you have made a rather liquid glue.. Something much like what Pomfry uses to make a seal for skin cuts that need attention."
"I'm Done professor." Virginia said as she bottled her potion.
Professor McGonagal smiled as she looked at the potion and smelt the potion.
"Perfect Miss Weasley…" She said and smiled. "You both may take your seats.
"Okay who knows just why these two children so much the same in looks………"
~~**~***~**~~
Virginia sighed easily as she slipped into her bed. She was so tiered. It had been a easy day yes, but dealing with the people around had made the day hard.. She pulled her sheets open and slipped inside. She pulled the down comforter over her and…
She was sitting at a huge desk, a stack of parchment on the side. She was currently writing on one a black quill in her fingers. She licked her lips and tasted a sweet strawberry taste on her lips.
"So my dear, Having fun dealing with most queenly duties." She turned and was looking at tall Blond and handsome.
"Oh, you know me… There isn't much to being queen except it seems that between queens the Governors can fend for themselves, and then when there's a queen every little bloody indiscretion is sent to me."
"Don't you have a counselor to look over these things?"
"Well yes I do, but well.. There is so much doubt put on me-"
"That you feel if its handled by you it will seem more Queenly?"
"Oh Shut up Dragon, Its not if I really have anything better to do."
"Actually you do My Dear… but first I'll need you to drop the curtains and close the door…"
Her eyes raised suspiciously "Oh and why is it?"
"A surprise…" He said with an almost enjoyable evil smile. She waved her hand and dark drapes fell and taper candles roared to life. She waved her hand again and the door closed and locked…..
~*~**~*~
If your old enough use your imaginations….
If Your not old enough… I left it black…
though you all get the picture I'm sure
~*~**~***~**~*~
Virginia Sat straight up, sweat pouring of her body as she awoke from the passionate dream. She was breathing hard and blindly grasped for her water, What she wouldn't give to just be able wave her hand and have all of the candles roar to life. She sighed and flung her arms out. The candles in the room suddenly roared to life and she couldn't help but question if she was dreaming. She grabbed her glass of water and drained the goblet rather easily before slipping for her soft comforters and heading into the common room shared by the single person dorms and tossed herself onto the couch to stare into the flames.
Draco woke up, The sensual sexuality of the dream still fresh in his mind, and it's effects having caused him to be short of breath and practically drenched in sweat. If Virginia knew of these dreams she would kill him… surly. He pulled himself out of the tangled mess of sheets and walked from the room. He froze. Virginia in all her beauty was laying out about on the couch as if laying on a chaise. Her hair was all over the place and made him think about the dream….He sighed and took a deep breath. Don't think about the dream… Don't think about the Dream…
"Draco! What are you doing up, Come sit.. Help me get my mind off unruly dreams."
-and keep my mind on my dream, ugh, either make her sad or be good Draco.. Be a good Draco.- "Okay." Draco said and settled into a chair. "Did you lay yourself out like that on purpose… You look like a decoration for the common room." Draco said eyeing her small Tank top with an Anarchy sign on it. She also wore way to baggy black night pants that rode low. - GET YOUR MIND OFF THOSE THINGS DRACO-
"Well Thank you…" Virginia said… she suddenly had a startling revelation, DRACO WAS THE BLOND ADDONIS IN HER DREAM! She felt herself taking settling deep breaths. He looked older in her dream, but it was no mistaking it. He was defiantly the man in her dream.
"Your welcome my dear… So, What makes you Happy Virginia?" Draco asked he knew it sounded stupid, but anything had to be thought about other than the dream. Virginia looked a bit uneasy too, but then like she said, She'd also had unruly dreams, just not his type.
"Strawberries in the morning for breakfast. Chocolate Strawberries for Lunch, and Fortune cookies for dessert.. And kittens." Virginia said laughing.
"Mmm, Sounds delicious, that is accept the kitten, If they make you happy why don't you own one?" Draco asked. Virginia looked at him.
"Kittens cost money.. I don't actually have that to spare… But that's life you know." Virginia said and turned her head a bit. Draco let a bit of his smile fade. "What makes you happy Dragon?" Ginny asked. Draco paused at the Dragon, but figured Charm had slipped up after hearing the Blaise's little dragon bit.
"I like kittens and strawberries… and -" It was on his tongue to say you,- "friends, I mean, You, Carolina, Blaise, Charm… I guess… I like your fortune cookie pendant, Did you get it because of your love for fortune cookies?"
"Oh no, actually Charm gave it to me as odd as it sounds… she's a different duck isn't she." Virginia said, her eyes seemed to want to close very badly at this moment.
"Virginia I hate to say it but you're an odd duck just for saying that sayi..n..g." The last bit of Draco's word fell off his lips as he looked from the flames to Virginia, Her eyes closed and so beautiful that it almost made him want to cry. He smiled and stood up pulling a throw from over a chair and tossing it onto her…. There wasn't normally throw blankets in the common room… where had that one came from… Draco though as it settled over her form. He got an Idea though suddenly and all thoughts about the stupid throw were gone from his mind, after all it was just a stupid blanket, left probably by some second year who occupied one of the dorms probably.
To someone, that throw meant a lot. It meant that the picture of the puzzle was beginning to form, It meant that they may be able to hold the world in their palm, It meant so much, that throw blanket, and yet the blanket meant nothing, nothing at all. It was all in what and who had done with that blanket that meant the world to this person. To this person who waited for Draco to exit and then hurriedly exited minutes after him.

Hey Kiddies! I know that this chapter doesn't seem up to my standard, the first bit was a bit forced on my part as I was having writers block and wanted to get this chapter out… and then Lord Of The Rings; The Two Towers came out and I had to go rent both the Fellowship Of the Ring, Extended Version and The Two Towers to appease my need to see it.
GOOD NOTE: The Story Pace may be picking up and flying along, I'll have patience to describe some and most things, but, I have trouble describing the school day class wise. But the Story is Coming along… soon you'll be able to recognize this thing called a Plot… hopefully, I'm also trying to write a bit of a back story for Blaise and Charms Summer… That is if the idea goes over well, so tell me what you think.
