Chapter 10 – Ssssoooo Romantic
The 6th year girls' dorm was empty, as everyone was having classes, and Ginny walked quickly across the room, throwing herself on her bed.
"Wow, I'm taking this well, I haven't even cried yet!" she mumbled to herself. Just then, she felt something wet on her neck. "I guess I've talked too soon..."
Yep... she was crying. It's not that she is a crybaby... She isn't. But, how would you react to those news? Having a curse running through your blood, making you love your enemy.
"Oh Merlin... I love him because of the curse! That's the only reason!" she realised, suddenly, feeling extremely unhappy. "How can I stay with him my entire life? The love we'll feel for each other will only be a lie!" Crappy, crappy life... That's what happens when you think nothing will ever go wrong in your life.
Thinking about the revelations made by Dumbledore, slowly Ginny fell asleep. And while she was in that state when you are not sleeping yet, but you're not awake either, she felt something heavy and warm cover her body, and then a gentle kiss on her temple. That was enough for her to fall in a dreamless sleep.
"Ginny? Gin, wake up..." Hermione's voice came to her in dreams, while someone's hand shook her awake.
"Mione? What's the matter?" she groaned, snuggling under the warm blanket.
"Ginny, you've missed the morning classes, and so has Draco Malfoy. What happened, Ginny?" Hermione asked, sitting on the bed, next now wide awaken to her friend.
"Well... This is a long story. Do you have time?" she asked, sitting against the bed's headboard.
"Yes, we have an hour until lunch, so shoot!" Hermione said.
It was really hard to tell the whole story to Hermione, because she just couldn't shut her mouth. She was always making questions and interrupting Ginny's line of thought. By the end of the whole explanation, Hermione looked completely fascinated and happy.
"Oh, that is so romantic! Imagine... you have to live happily ever after with the guy you love! Oh, you are so lucky!" she sighed, looking like she was walking on wonderland.
"Hermione, have you lost your mind? Which part of the Curse didn't you understand? I love him because I'm cursed, and he'll start to love me, because my curse will affect him! If we stay apart I will die... How come this is romantic?" Ginny almost screamed in frustration.
"Ginny, if I understood correctly, you've said, that the curse only started to work after you gave him a proof of your love! That means, you loved him before all this curse thing... And who knows if he didn't love you already, as well?" Hermione said, sounding very secure of her own words.
"Do you think so? Oh, I wish I wasn't in this situation..." Ginny sighed, with a little smile on her lips, and the hope that Hermione was indeed correct.
"Everything will be alright in the end... You'll see, Ginny! Now, let's go down for lunch... I'm starved!" Hermione complained, pushing Ginny out of the bed.
"Wait! I need a shower and a clean change of clothes..." she said, holding her hygiene bag, and walking towards the bathroom.
"I'll wait for you in the Common Room..."
After a delicious bath, Ginny put on a clean uniform and met Hermione and Harry in the Common Room.
"Where's Ron?" she asked curious, as they left the Gryffindor tower.
"I think he found out something special in Luna Lovegood..." Harry said, trying hard not to laugh.
"REALLY? But they were always fighting, and she always talked about how wonderful you were, Harry! WOW; that comes as a surprise!" Ginny laughed as well, in a better mood.
"Yeap, now you have an extra loony in your family!" Hermione said, opening the doors to the Great Hall.
Laughing happily, the three of them went to their seats on the Gryffindor table.
Not far from there, a blond Slytherin watched a certain redhead, not Ron Weasley, smiling while she talked with her friends. Lately, that girl was the only thing on his mind from the moment he woke up, until he finally fell asleep, and on his dreams as well.
One would think he was crazy to like a Weasley. Well, even he agreed with that thought. The Malfoy's weren't supposed to be friends with the Weasleys, even less fall in love with them.
The whole revelation brought a new hope to his heart. She loved him; she had screamed that she did, up there on Dumbledore's office. Now, they had an excuse to spend time together, and to fall in love with the other. They would stay together forever... and he could hardly wait to share his life with her.
"I'm so ridiculous when I'm in love... I'm acting like a little virgin falling in love for the first time! Well, actually this is the first time I fall in love, but I sure am not a virgin!" he thought with a scowl on his face.
"Dracky? Why are you looking at the weasel? You've been so strange, lately! And why are you always carrying that cat?" Pansy complained in her annoyingly fake sweet voice.
"Maybe I don't find anything worth of looking at in this table..." he said, keeping his cool façade.
"Draco Malfoy, are you saying you don't find me attractive?" she shrieked loudly, making everyone look at them.
"That's exactly what I'm saying!" he said, sipping his pumpkin juice.
"You'll pay for this, Draco Malfoy! You mark my words! I'll have revenge!" she screamed, as she ran out of the Great Hall, crying like a baby, with Crabbe and Goyle behind her.
Slowly everyone went back to their lunch, talking about what they had just heard and seen, but Draco's eyes went back to the beautiful face of none other than Miss Virginia Weasley. To his enormous surprise, she was staring back at him with an amused look on her face.
"Oh, I just had the time of my life!" Hermione laughed, as Pansy ran away from the Great Hall.
"Yeah, me too..." Ginny agreed, not taking her eyes from the boy she loved. Their gazes met, and they stood there, looking into each other's eyes, smiling gently.
A sudden movement on Draco's table, made them break their staring contest. Angel had just jumped on top of the table, and was eating Draco's chocolate muffin.
Both Draco and Ginny laughed. Surprising both Gryffindor and Slytherin table, Ginny went to Draco, and sat next to him, on the seat former occupied by Pansy Parkinson.
"Hi... I'm sorry about the way I've acted when we left Dumbledore's office. I had a little too much on my mind..." she said in a sweet voice that made him shiver from head to toes. "Hello Angel... Have you behaved well tonight? I'm sorry if she's bothering your life..."
"No, she isn't... I love to spend time with her, and talk with her! She's my only friend inside the Slytherin Dungeons," he petting Angel.
"Draco, I'm sorry I dragged you into this mess... I didn't know about this bloody curse!" she sighed, holding his hands between hers, making the whole student body gasp in surprise.
By now, all the students had noticed the Gryffindor and the Slytherin talking quietly, and holding hands. Everyone was abnormally quiet and watching them, trying to understand what was going on.
"I'm happy I was dragged into the whole scheme! I would have been furious if you had given a love proof to Harry Bloody Potter!" he replied, truthfully. "Everything will be alright!"
"I sure hope so, Draco..." she sighed, before she held up a hand to caress is beautiful face, tracing each of his lines with the tip of her nail, making him tickles. "You are so beautiful!"
All the students held their breaths, as they knew what was coming next.
Yep, Ginny and Draco leaned in and their lips joined in a long and gentle kiss. Not realising the stares from their colleagues, and from the teachers, Draco turned the kiss from tender and innocent, to a kiss full of desire and lust.
When they finally heard applauses in the distance, Draco and Ginny broke the kiss, breathing heavily, with their lips swollen and their hands on each other's bodies.
"You better take that Birth Control Potion really soon..." Draco whispered against her lips, making her smile.
The entire hall was cheering them on; even Dumbledore was clapping his hands with an amused smile on his lips, and a twinkling in his eyes.
Blushing a crimson colour, Ginny and Draco rose from their seats and left the Great Hall, with their hands linked, and little Angel following them.
"That was sssssoooooo romantic!" Hermione sighed, happy for her friend.
"She's sssssssooooo lucky Ron is not here to see this! He would have killed Malfoy, for touching his little sister." Harry replied, looking a little irritated.
"They love each other... Let them be!" Hermione whispered, before she sweetly kissed her boyfriend.
