Chapter 15 – The Fairies
"Our Queen is beautiful!" the Fairies giggled, flapping their delicate wings. "Will she be good for us? Her chosen one is cute..."
"Well, would you look at that! Fairies giggling and talking about how cute I am! My EGO is so satisfied right now!" Draco chuckled, as they walked near the lake, under the full moon light.
"Draco, please stop being so self centred!" Ginny joked, turning around to face the big group of flying Fairies. "Thank you for the compliment... But, the fact is that Fairies are one of the most beautiful creatures that exists!"
"Thank you, My Queen... My name is Twinkle, and I'll be your personal Fairy as soon as the month is over." A little Fairy flew up to Ginny's face, doing a bow.
She had shinny long blond hair, flying around her petite body, although there was no wind, pointy little ears were visible through the hair, her face was as white as snow, with soft spots of red on her cheeks, and her wings batted joyously behind her. The whole image was proof enough of the purity of those creatures.
"Hello, Twinkle... It's a great honour to finally meet the people I'm going to represent in the Wizarding World!" Ginny said, raising her hand, palm up to the sky, waiting for Twinkle to land on it.
"The honour is ours, My Queen... We have a warning to give you!" Twinkle said, her face becoming worried. "He-Who-Must-No-Be-Named will try to find you as soon as he hears about your existence... You must not join the Dark Side, My Queen!"
"Why would he want me to join him?" Ginny asked, worried as well.
"Ginny, Voldemort already has the Trolls, the Dementors and dozens of other Dark creatures on his side..." Draco explained, sounding furious. "The two allies he wishes the most are the Unicorns and the Fairies! But, to get the Unicorns trust, Voldemort has to conquer the Fairies first, because they control all the Light creatures... Voldemort will try to make us join him, so he can achieve eternal life and total power over the muggle and wizarding world."
Understanding downed on Ginny's brain, and her eyes became moist with tears.
"Why does it have to always happen something bad after something good?" she sighed, leaning against Draco's chest. "He won't take me to his side, Draco! I'll stick to my heart's choice and remain with the Light forces, protecting our people and all of those who need protection from the Darkness!"
"We are happy to ear your words, My Queen!" the Fairies said, smiling once again, and flying with more conviction.
"When will we see you all again?" Draco asked to the little creatures.
"As soon as the curse is complete, we'll come back to do our job, My King!" Twinkle answered, leaving Ginny's hand and going back to the group of Fairies. "You will see us in three weeks!"
They all bowed and flew away, to the Forbidden Forest.
"I've loved to meet them..." Ginny smiled happily. "And you, My King?"
"It was wonderful, My Queen!" he replied, kissing her temple, before he took her hand and they walked back to the Great Hall.
As they walked across the crowded room, people looked at them with curiosity, confusion and many other emotions. They were still trying to understand what had happened earlier when the Fairies had encircled those two.
Ginny and Draco where dancing as close to each other as possible, not caring about the stares they were getting from others, until a hand tapped on Draco's shoulder, stopping their dance.
"Can I dance with my sister, please?" Ron asked, red as a tomato.
"NO!" Ginny replied at once.
"Ginny, I think it's about time you both have a nice conversation about all this!" Draco said, sounding serious. "I want her back after you finish talking, is that ok with you?"
"We'll see!" was Ron's reply, shocked with Malfoy's weird attitude. He was being... nice? How weird can you get?
Brother and sister started to sway gently to the slow music, trying to gather the courage to talk.
"Ginny, what's happening? Why are you so friendly with Malfoy? Why is Mom supporting your relation with him? What was all that about earlier tonight with the Fairies?" Ron asked in a confused voice, looking deep into her brown eyes, he knew oh so well.
"Ron, I want you to shut your trap while I tell you everything, alright?" Ginny warned, starting her story. When she finished a few minutes later, Ron's mouth was wide open in shock.
"Oh, bloody hell! I'll have to bare his presence for the rest of my life? That's so cruel!" Ron sighed, shacking his head sadly. "Oh well, I'll learn to accept your fate, Gin... I don't want you to die! Make sure you stay with Malfoy for the rest of your life! Oh, good Merlin, I can't believe I'm saying this!!!"
Ginny laughed at her brother's words, and kissed his cheek.
"I'm glad you're on my side, but please, don't you ever dare to slap me again, or call me a whore! I didn't like that!" she said, looking sad.
Ron kissed her forehead, whispering 'I'm Sorry!'. Right then, a hand patted on his shoulder.
"Bloody Hell, Malfoy! Can't you see I'm talking with my sister?" Ron complained.
"Ron, it's not Draco! It's Professor Dumbledore..." Ginny laughed at Ron's shocked face.
"Oops... Sorry, Professor! How can I help you?" he asked, glowing red.
"Can I have this dance with Miss Weasley?" Dumbledore asked, looking at Ron over is half-moon spectacles.
Ron bowed, giving Ginny's hand to the Professor and left the dance floor.
"Virginia, you are looking beautiful tonight!" Dumbledore smiled warmly, as another slow music echoed on the Great Hall. "The Fairies showed wonderfully how much they like both of you, tonight! It was a beautiful sight!"
"Yes, it was... I like them already, as well!" Ginny smiled, but then her face became worried. "They warned me about You-Know-Who's intentions as soon as he hears about me..."
"Young Virginia, do not fear! Your heart is pure and you're a creature of the Light! Voldemort won't change that... Trust in your self and in Mr. Malfoy, and everything will be fine!" Dumbledore said in a soft reassuring voice. "It was a great pleasure dancing with a young lady after so much time without shacking my bones!"
Ginny laughed, as Dumbledore gestured for Draco to approach them.
"Miss Weasley and Mister Malfoy, don't you ever forget! The love that brings both of you is your biggest strength and your biggest weakness, at the same time! Always trust in each other and on the love you both share, and all your problems will go away..." Dumbledore said, his eyes twinkling, before he left the couple in each other's arms.
"Is everything alright?" Draco asked her, as soon as they started dancing again.
"Everything is perfect... Dumbledore's right! If we love each other, that same love will be our weapon to fight evil!" Ginny smiled, placing her head against his shoulder, kissing his neck.
"Then, Voldemort, be aware, because our love is stronger than any of your dark magic!" Draco said, amusedly. "Talking about Voldemort, I have a letter to write to Father! If I tell him the truth, Voldemort will find out about you!"
"I don't care... Sooner or later he would find out!" she smiled, full of trust. "Do you want me to write that letter with you?"
"That would be great... How about we do it in my room?" he asked, smiling his sexiest smile.
"That's a wonderful idea..." she smiled back, winking. "I love you, Draco!"
"I love you too, Virginia Weasley!" he whispered against her lips, before they kissed passionately and left the Great Hall towards the Dungeons, to Draco's private dorm.
"Our Queen is beautiful!" the Fairies giggled, flapping their delicate wings. "Will she be good for us? Her chosen one is cute..."
"Well, would you look at that! Fairies giggling and talking about how cute I am! My EGO is so satisfied right now!" Draco chuckled, as they walked near the lake, under the full moon light.
