Hour Glass

Chapter Seven

Ginny stood up fully and started walking in the opposite direction of Draco. She was vaguely aware of him following her back to the castle.

The Entrance Hall was in complete darkness when Ginny walked in. She heard Draco's rapid breathing behind her. With only the sound of her foorsteps and Draco's breathing, she walked in the direction towards Gryffindor tower. Ginny barely contained the urge to run all the way to the common room.

The Fat Lady's portrait was in view, and Ginny could still hear Draco walking slowly behind her. She muttered the password while the Fat Lady chastised Ginny for being up so late, "And bringing back a Slytherin, no less!"

Inside the common room, Ginny sat by the dying fire and listened to see if Draco had followed her into the common room. She turned around to see that he had, in fact, followed her into the common room.

"If my brother saw you in here, he would most likely kill you here in the room." Ginny stated, walking towards the girl's dormitories. "You might as well leave, since you aren't allowed in the dormitories."

"I am if you let me," Draco said.
