Hour Glass
Chapter Five
Ginny didn't know whether she should go or not. "Maybe the letter isn't from him," she thought, "but, then again, how many people do I know with the initials DLM?" In the end, she decided to go and see what he wanted.
The common room was empty, and the fire in the hearth burned low. Ginny went out of the portrait hole without awakening the Fat Lady. The only light in the halls was that of the dimly lit torches hanging on the walls. Mr. Filch was no where to be found, so she quietly made her way up to the Astronomy Tower.
The stairs creaked under her weight and sounded loud in the quiet night air. She opened the door slowly incase it would creak and walked inside of the tower.
He was sitting at one of the desks by the window and was looking away from the door. Ginny wondered if he had heard her come in. She stood there in silence for what felt like hours until he finally spoke.
"I thought you wouldn't come."
"What do you want, Malfoy?" Ginny asked a little too loudly.
"Sshhhh," Draco whispered, "Don't be too loud or we'll get caught."
"What do you want?" Ginny asked again, a little more quietly.
"To talk," Draco said.
"About?" Ginny questioned.
"Everything," Draco said slightly breathless.
"Why do you want to talk to me?"
"I don't know. You're different... from everyone. You're not afraid to be yourself. That's why I want to talk to you. Believe it or not, I actually want to be friends with you, littlest Weasley."
"And why do you, Malfoy, want to be friends with a Weasley?" Ginny asked curiously.
"Like I said, you're different. You've changed."
"OK, Malfoy, I'll try to be friends with you on one condition."
"What?" Draco asked.
"No one knows about it."
