Disclaimer: Alright. That's it. I have already said that I don't own Harry
Potter. I also said that my brain isn't that good (Naughty-girl1990 will
vouch for that she has to correct my spellings in English.)
Thanks to mariah*spuffy and Naughty-girl1990 for reviewing. I didn't think I would get any reviews but life is full of surprises!
Sorry this chapter has taken so long but it is hard to type with false nails on...
Midnight feast.
Ginny skipped dinner that night because she had so much homework. Professor Binns had given them 15 inches of "How did the Second Goblin Rebellion of the Middle Ages start?"
She sat in the common room, trying to think of what to write. She really needed help with this and there was nobody around that she could ask.
She decided she would go to the library and try to find a book and then just copy what it said. She left through the portrait hole and made her way to the library.
***
She got up to the library and saw that it was closed. She made her way slowly back to Gryffindor Tower in no hurry.
When she got there she gave the password – Le Ab-dollen – and sat down again to try and guess how it started.
Ginny gave up on the History of Magic homework and started the Transfiguration. It didn't take her long as she was always listening and she had always been good at it. She got through that quite quickly and checked her homework book to see what else she had.
She never had Arithmancy homework but she decided to do Muggle studies. They had been assigned to find out about plugs and electricity.
Ginnys father, being a muggle lover, knew all the things there was to know about muggles. Her father would often talk about what he had learnt about muggles at the dinner table, which greatly annoyed her mother. She started writing but then began to cry.
It reminded her of her father and what he had done to the family. "Why did he do that to us. He knew we loved him but he still went ahead and did it." She sobbed.
When she stopped crying, she packed away her things and put them in a corner. She walked out of the portrait hole and made her way down to the kitchens.
She had skipped dinner and was very hungry. She got down to the corridor where the entrance to the kitchens was and got out her wand. It was too dark to look for the painting so she muttered "lumos" and her wand tip lit up. She prayed that she wouldn't get caught by patrolling prefects or teachers and she made her way down the corridor.
When she finally found the painting of the fruit bowl, she tickled the pear and the doorway appeared. She went inside only to find the House Elves running around, making food and taking it out of her sight.
Suddenly she found a little group of House Elves around her feet.
"What can we get you, miss?"
Ginny couldn't think what she wanted so she just said, "err... can I have a bowl of cornflakes please?"
"Yes, certainly miss. Would you like to come and sit down?"
Ginny nodded her head and let them drag her to a seat. She wasn't really paying attention and didn't notice anyone was there until she heard a cold, drawling voice say "Fine, don't say hello then."
She jumped and relaxed a little when she saw that it was Draco. "Hello then." She said sarcastically.
Draco moved round next to her so the House Elves couldn't hear what they were saying. "I thought about that."
"What?" she asked.
"What you said in the hall."
"And... Thought of a decent comeback yet?"
"Yes"
"Well, what is -" Ginny was cut off by Draco as he kissed her. "And what was that for?" she asked, shocked.
"You liked that didn't you?"
Ginny was silent so he took it for a yes. "Most people don't like kissing 'maniacs on happy pills' do they?"
Ginny just stayed silent so Draco continued... "Which either makes you the same as me or I am not a 'maniac on happy pills."
Ginny quickly recovered and said with a smile "I am not most people and I never said I liked it. Get out of that one then."
She was quite pleased that she had stumped him yet again, but he managed to think quicker this time. "Which makes you like me." he said triumphantly.
"Yeah, but do I look like a maniac on happy pills?"
Draco decided that he was defeated and went to finish his meal on the other side of the table.
Ginny's cornflakes had just arrived so she began to eat them slowly and trying to prevent herself from laughing.
When Draco and Ginny had finished their food they decided that it was late and they would go back to their dormitories.
On their way out, after thanking the House Elves, the door suddenly opened and in walked the little first year called Ruth Lee. They were quite surprised that she had found her way to the kitchens so early on in her school life.
"Hi Draco." She said as she walked past them both and up to one of the House Elves.
"Hi." He said.
Ginny moved towards the door and Draco followed. They went silently up the corridor, listening for the sounds of someone approaching.
Draco suddenly pulled Ginny into the shadows, where they stayed silently, listening for sounds.
After a few moments, Ginny said "I don't hear anything."
"I know."
"So why did you drag me into the shadows?"
"To do this..." Draco kissed Ginny again, but this time put a bit more passion into it. They got so involved that they didn't hear the footsteps approaching...
