being seen in the public.
Chapter Four
Ginny picked up one of the books Draco had left for her, lay down on the bed leaning the book against the silk covered pillows, and lost herself in it. She read until Draco came back to the room in a terrible mood. A cloud of gloom entered the room with him. Ginny quickly closed the book she was reading, sat up and a look of concern appeared on her face. Afraid to speak she remained silent.
He shook himself as though to clear his thoughts then in a commanding tone he said, "tell me everything you know about Dumbledore's plans".
"I don't know anything" she replied free of emotion.
"Stop lying I know you were in the Ministry of Magic the night his lordship reveled himself".
"So what if I was there," she replied annoyed, "I had to force them to let me come. To them I'm just Ron's little sister. Nothing more, not someone to be treated as anything else".
"I don't believe you" he replied frustrated at her answers "you placed a powerful hex on me at the end of the semester I am embarrassed to say".
She gave him a merciful look and said "you were kind to me earlier, why the change"?
"There use lying to you is there Ginny," he said rhetorically. She shook her head no and with a sad smile he said sitting down on the bed next to her. "If I do not bring the Dark Lord information from you in three days he will question you himself". Then he buried his face in his hands ashamed.
Ginny gently pulled his face from his hands and with a look of determination said in a firm voice "I do not fear him".
Puzzled but curious Draco asked her " What do you fear then"?
"I fear living but not truly being alive". Seeing his puzzled look she explained. To be alive is to do something worthwhile with your life to make a difference. To be living is just existing you go through your life and then you die and are forgotten. I don't want to be forgotten a day a month a year or even fifty years after I die. I want to be remembered for all time. So you see I cant fear Voldemort but I do fear dying because I haven't really been alive yet".
"I understand, but I cannot accept it. It should not matter if you are remembered to feel that you are alive", said Draco "it should matter if you do something worthy of being remembered. I am sorry I was harsh before".
"I understand why you were there is nothing to apologize for" she answered softly, "I'm tired do you mind if I go to sleep".
Looking ashamed he said "you do not have to ask me before you do something as long as you stay in these rooms". As she started to go to the bathroom to change he added "I'll sleep on the couch tonight don't worry that I would try something".
"You don't have to, I trust you" she replied.
"You shouldn't"
"Draco if I trust you stop arguing with me. I trust you and besides it's a king sized bed so unless you roll around while you sleep we wont get near each other". Then she slipped through the bathroom door to change.
When she returned she found that he was already asleep on one side of the bed.
Before she fell asleep she whispered, "Sweet dreams Draco, I'm glad to see that there is still good in you".
