Chapter Four

Ron's load bellow of rage was the only thing Draco had before being crushed to the ground by Ron's weight.

Ginny was expecting some kind of fight but not this soon! She knew at heart Ron loved her but this was going a little too far. Hell, it was going way too far!

" Ron! WHAT are you doing?!?!?!" yelled Ginny into the fray as Ron drew back a fist to punch Draco with.

Ginny's voice had distracted Ron and he looked up at Ginny for a moment. Draco used this oppertunity to punch Ron right in the jaw. Ginny winced hard as she saw Ron's head snap back. She hadn't intended for that to happen. She couldn't root for anyone in this fight. She really liked Draco but she was Ron's sister. Damn...either way this was going to turn out bad....

Ginny wasn't a wuss and growing up in a household of boys had definatly taught her how to fight. So being the not very rational Weasley she was she decided to join in the fray and break up the fight. Using her wand never even entered her mind.

Kicking Ron in the stomach and elbowing Draco in the solar plexus Ginny managed to mget right into the thick of things making it impossible for Ron and DRaco to hit each other without hitting Ginny in the process. She was playing to their weaknesses and it was working. Both Draco and Ron would rather cut off their ear than hurt Ginny. Reluctantly the two boys let go of each other and stood up. The fight had stopped. Or So Ginny had thought.

The two idiot boys in their quest to bust each others bones went right back to fighting after leaving Ginny behind in the dirt. Ron punched Draco in the eye promising him a shiner in the future, Draco landed one right on the corner of Ron's mouth drawing blood.

THIS WAS SO STUPID!!!

Ginny then resulting to dramatics drabbed her wand out of her pocket and threw two bubbles full of water at the boys, This seemed to draw them out of their battle caused stupor.

they both started speaking at the same

"what the hell--" started Ron

"Jesus, Ginny--" continued Draco.

"No," said Ginny interrupting them," You WILL NOT do this. Do you understand me? You will not fight like two territorial lions fighting over a piece of meat!"

Draco and Ron both had the decency to look shame faced.

Ginny continued.

"Ron!, you are my older brother and I love you but this HAS to stop. You've been chasing away my friends for so long that i have none!!! Lonliness has been my companion for the last six YEARS!!! I won't stand for it anymore. I really like Draco. He is everything that i want right now in a guy or even just a friend. So STOP!"

Ron looked ashamed of himself and Ginny made a mentla note to talk to him later, Draco just began to smirk.

"And you, DRACO! Don't you dare stand there and smirk at me! You told me that it would be alright. I assumed that you wouldn't be fighting with Ron but talking this out like normal civilized people. BUT NO! You had to fight. Are you going to do this when you meet my other five brothers and tell them that were going out? or whatever we are? HUH?!?!?!?! whats the deal Dracie beacuse i am REALLY anxious to hear it!"

Ginny ashamed of her outburst, furiously burst into tears and still clothed in her soggy robes ran back up to the school leaving Draco and Ron, still edgy and furious at each other to look at each other in puzzlement.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Draco and Ron had walked back up to the school together in silence as they occasionally shot each other cautious looks.

When they reached Hogwarts Draco broke the uncomortable silence by reaching his out to Ron. Ron hesitantly took it and shook it. They both let go of the others hand very quickly.

"Treat her right, Malfoy, or were going to have to continue this fight and you won't be getting off that easily." said Ron

Draco with a smirk replied saying, " Weasle, if I hurt her that badly I'll probably come to you asking for the beating."

Ron gave Draco a small smile and they both headed back into the castle.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Ginny had ran straight through the castle to the Gryffindor common room, and through the common room up to her room after her through trashing of both Draco and Ron. She was ashamed of herself, yes, but she was also ashamed of both of them. She had stupidly expected more of Draco and well...she was just pissed at Ron for butting into her life once again.

Ginny never really was one to be cooped up when she was angry and this wasn't one of the exceptions to that rule. She had to get out of the castle! Rage was coursing through her veins and if she didn't get out of there she's blow up. Rummagin through her trunk Ginny found what she was looking for. She had shoved her old broom in there after her fourth year when her family had forbidden her to fly after she had recieved a slight injury playing Quidditch with her brothers.

Now seemed like a grand time to break it out again and try tempting fate again. Rushing through the castle, Ginny arrived at the Quidditch fields to see it already beign occupied by someone else. Draco was flying laps around the field and even from far away Ginny could see the black eye forming around his right eye.

He caught sight of her and flew down to land next to her on the ground.

Draco gave her a wounded puppy look and said, "Guess i screwed up pretty bad with Ron today didn't I?"

Ginny shot him a glare and said, " Oh yeah, you really screwed up."

"I'm sorry." said Draco with a hint of sincerity in his voice.

Ginny tried to fight and stay mad at him but she found that she couldn't.

"Dammit, Draco, you can't do this every time you screw up. You can't flash that gorgeous smile at me and make me think it's gonna be all hunky dory wonderful.It doesn't work that way!" said Ginny

Draco gave a grin and said, " Hey, i'm in this for the long haul. i know it doesn't work that way...How bout' i solve this problem and we just never fight ever again?"

Ginny laughed and agreed.

A/N;Well right now i have to thank the people whose warm reviews brightened my day. and to those whose review were callous and mean....screw you. *grin* Very immature i know but well yeah..thats me. i'd still very much appreciate reviews that point out how i can improve my story. Those that say it just suck aren't all that welcome.
