Disclaimer: I DOWNT OWN N E OF DER KARAKTERS IN HARREE POTTA SO PLEEZE DOWNT SUE.

Sorry about the disclaimer bit: I was having an "I can't be bothered to spell right" moment!!

And thanks to my latest reviewers: I luv y'all!!

This chapter will be kinda rubbish because I was woken up this morning at 11:30 yes you saw that right 11:30 in the morning!! I usually ignore the phone but then I realised I was the only person in the house so I got up.

Sorry it's taking so long aswell... I'm Kitty Sitting!! It's hard trying to concentrate in a room with a cat and when it finally settles down you don't want it to wake up again so you can't type very fast. For the benefit of Naughtygirl1990: the cat is my gorgeous black one... Panther. (I also have a tortoiseshell one called Tiger: They are both totally sweet!!!)

Two weeks before Christmas.

It was now two weeks before Christmas and Ginny had long finished her month of detentions and had caught up with her homework.

She was on her way down to the kitchens because, yet again she had missed dinner and went on with her homework.

She heard someone up ahead and walked up silently in the shadows. Being out after curfew was not in her best interests at the moment seeing as how she just finished a few days detention for being caught.

When she finally saw who it was she giggled slightly and crept silently up behind them. "Boo."

Draco jumped and quickly turned around. "You scared me you little..." He picked her up and carried her through the kitchen door that had just opened for them.

Draco put her down when they got just inside the door. "What can we get for Sir and Miss?" One of the House Elves said.

Draco and Ginny placed their orders and went to sit at one of the tables, waiting for the food to arrive. They sat in silence and watched as they rushed about trying to make it in the quickest possible time.

Ginny laughed as two of them collided, spilling pumpkin juice. Draco and Ginny carried on watching them for a while until about five House Elves came up carrying one tray between them. They placed it on the table and stood back happily.

"Thanks." Said Ginny, still slightly giggling at the two that had run into eachother.

Draco and Ginny began to eat their meal, but they weren't very far into it when Draco stopped her and they listened intently for a moment.

They were about to start eating again when they heard the door snap shut. They saw a couple of House Elves jogging towards the door and then heard them asking what the person would like.

The person made their order and one of the Elves went running back in the other direction, the other leading the person to the table.

The person came round the corner and looked shocked at what he saw, as did Draco and Ginny.

"What the hell are you playing at, Malfoy?" He hissed.

"I don't know what you mean, Potter." Draco said silkily.

"Messing around with Ginny, that's what I mean." He said angrily.

"I am not messing around with Ginny here, I am merely having a meal, that is all." He said smoothly.

Harry couldn't argue with this so he just sat at one of the other tables in a stress. As he walked past them, Ginny heard him mutter something like "Wait until Ron hears about this."

"Oh, but he won't hear about this." Ginny said, standing up.

Draco didn't know what she was talking about, but Harry knew she had heard.

"Won't he."

"No, he won't, and you know why? She said calmly. "Because none of us are going to tell him, and that includes you."

Harry ignored her and sat down, waiting for his order. It wasn't long before the Elves brought over a giant tray.

"Got that?" She said threateningly.

"Mmmm." He said, now concentrating on his food.

"Sorry?" She said, "Didn't quite catch that."

"I said yes, alright?"

"Perfect." She said, smiling and sitting down again.

When they had finished their meal, Draco and Ginny got up and left Harry by himself, though he didn't mind at all.

When they got out by the end of the passageway, Draco kissed Ginny goodbye and they left individually. Ginny went first and made her way carefully up the marble staircase and then Draco went in the direction of the dungeons.

They didn't know that they had been followed out of the kitchens.

Harry quickly checked that the coast was clear, with the Marauders Map. When he saw that there was nobody was around he ran up the marble staircase and followed Ginny.

It wasn't long before he caught up with her. He checked the map again and went up behind her, expecting a scream. "Hey, Gin!" He said as he walked up behind her.

"What do you want, Harry?" Said Ginny in an annoyed tone.

"What do you mean?" He asked, pretending to be curious.

"You never talk to me like that unless you want something. Speak."

"I was err... just wondering err... whether you and Malfoy were err..." He was cut off by Ginny.

"Don't you think that is my business? And do you really think I would tell you stuff like that? Hmmm? No. So, is that all?"

Harry was taken aback by this, he obviously had expected an answer but he decided to drop it so he said "Err... yeah."

"Good."

They walked carefully back to the common room, avoiding teachers, Filch and the school ghosts.

Harry was about to go up the boys staircase when Ginny called his name.

"Yeah." He said uneasily.

"Not a word to Ron, got that?"

"Yeah." He said again and walked off.

Ginny went up to bed, got changed and fell asleep.
