A/N: Sorry, last chapter was like so bad (it turned out bad, at least!) and
it was short, but I'm going to do better on this one, I swear it! Thanks
for your reviews!

Previous: "...So do I." Draco whispered. He leaned in slowly. Ginny looked around; no one was in the corridor, no one could help her. She backed up right against the wall. She could feel his breath on her. She could feel his lips press against her own. She could. hear her name down the corridor? "VIRGINIA WEASLEY!" someone called.. ."Whatever! Next thing you know, he'll be using me," Ginny said. "Never trust a Slytherin. Especially if his father is one of the most wanted Death Eaters."
Chapter Two: Winter Screams
Ginny lay down on the couch that was in front of the fire in the Gryffindor common room. These past few weeks had been exhausting on her. Maria hadn't told a soul about her little 'incident', either had Malfoy, evidently. No one knew! But that still didn't help the fact that it happened. Ginny couldn't take her mind off of it. But why?
The Winter Holidays were just a few weeks away and she and Ron would be staying at Hogwarts. Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were going to be going to Romania to visit Charlie (again) and suggested that the two youngest children simply stay at school. Fred and George were going to be coming to visit them, too, at the castle. 'Probably just to talk to Harry.' Ginny thought.
Ginny stared out the window from her seat. She saw an owl fly by, she saw the snow fall down. She had nothing to do on a Friday evening. Everyone was down in the Great Hall and she didn't want to go down there at the moment. She didn't want to see Ron, who had yelled at her earlier. 'Maybe the library's empty?'
Ginny got up and walked out of the portrait hole, out of the Gryffindor common room. She could hear footsteps down the hallway. Light tapping, but still audible. It was Hermione. Ginny quickly turned the other direction and walked fast, hoping Hermione wouldn't see her. She didn't.
Ginny made her way to the library, no one else unwanted coming across her path. Just a few first years. As she walked in through the door she saw no one. But that's just it. She didn't see them.
Ginny walked around, looking for any book that seemed interesting. 'Spells, spells, spells, potions, Transfiguration, The Basics of Divination, more spells... no good books.' she thought as she read the titles on the bind. She saw a book that kind of caught her eye, but it had no title, nothing to classify it. It was a bright pink color with glitter all around it. She grabbed it off the shelf and sat down at a table nearby.
"What's a Weasley doing alone in a library on a Friday evening?" asked a voice coming from the doorway. That voice could only match one person. Obviously it wasn't hard to tell.
"Shut up, Ron, you sound like you're trying to be Malfoy!" Ginny laughed. "Why aren't you with Hermione?"
"We were looking for you! 'Mione started to get worried when you didn't show up to dinner, and I offered to take her outside for a little walk. She insisted on finding you first, then maybe we could walk, if it wasn't too cold." Ron rolled his eyes. "Little sisters, what a bugger!"
"Ok, well now you've found me and I'm safe. So go outside now with your girlfriend!" Ginny winked. "Don't get too wild, though, Ron! We don't want to have to send out a search party because you got freaked out."
Ron waved and walked back out of the library; Ginny continued reading. The book was like a girl's diary, except not as frightening as the one from Ginny's first year at Hogwarts. This one didn't have any place to write in it, and Ginny was almost for certain it wouldn't write back if she were to write in it, anyway.
Veronica Weals was the name inside the book. Apparently she had lived back in the beginning years of Hogwarts and was a favorite student of Godric Gryffindor and, amazingly, Salazar Slytherin (as the second page in the diary says). 'So there must be something really special about this girl,' Ginny thought. She turned to the first full page of writing and started to read.
'November 4 Dear Diary, It's my first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. What I've found out is that not a lot of the students have heard of this school. It's very surprising. This castle is magnificent; there are so many surprises around. I wonder, though, if there are any bad surprises about. This year they are starting this Triwizard Tournament thing, only third years and up are allowed to submit into it, though. Well, I don't think I would want to even if I was in third year. I have this weird feeling that something is going to go wrong, and I don't want to have to accept that on my own behalf. I think it would be much better to just...'
Ginny looked up from the entry. She had heard a noise from the door, something that just happened to creep her out at this particular moment. She looked all about her to see if she could find any one person. Not a soul in sight. Shaking the crazy thought away, she looked back down and started to read again.
"Ginny Weasley." a cold voice muttered in her ear. She jumped and turned around.
"What the --! Oh my God, Malfoy, you fucking scared me!" Ginny rolled her eyes. "What're you doing here, anyhow?"
"I thought I would get a book to read, if you don't mind. And just as I enter the library I see the youngest Weasley, all alone, no friends with her," Draco explained.
Ginny remembered the sound she had heard a few minutes before. It made her laugh. "Malfoy, did you trip?" she asked.
"I- uh. No! I just. you know. kind of fell." his words got unclear after that.
Ginny made a mental note to tell Ron that Draco Malfoy, most hated enemy to the whole Weasley family, tripped. Wasn't he supposed to be walking smoothly?
Ginny rolled her eyes and sighed. "Why do guys always have to lie to girls? Don't they know it doesn't make them look good?!" she muttered.
"Ginny, I wanted to talk to you. actually." Draco said in a soft tone. There was no coldness in his voice, and when Ginny turned around and looked into his eyes, they had softened, too. "There's something that's going crazy in my head. If I try to ignore it, it becomes like a ping-pong ball, ricocheting off of every surface it hits. It won't stop. I can't concentrate on anything. Since the first day back. And I'm clueless; I don't know what to do."
Ginny felt sympathy for this Slytherin. She wanted to help, but she didn't know what the problem was. She didn't know if she could help even if she did know the issue.
So she sat there for a few minutes, quiet, just thinking.
"Ginny." Draco whispered. Ginny turned her head to look at him. Their eyes met; cold, slightly emotionless eyes staring directly into warm, loving chocolate eyes. "I can't stop thinking about you." He leaned in slowly and kissed her lightly.
Ginny couldn't believe her ears. Malfoy said that? She also couldn't believe that he was kissing her. Her eyes bulged out at first because of the shock. Then she slowly closed them as Draco deepened the kiss. Time seemed to slowly go by as the two sat there in the library kissing. Footsteps sounded just outside of the door, but neither of them heard. Draco couldn't believe he was kissing a Weasley, but he also couldn't believe he had waited so long. Ginny's mind was running over and over again 'what if Ron finds out?!'
Draco finally stopped that oh-so-long kiss and looked at Ginny. She was the only thing, or person, he could see. He was the only person she was concentrating on. "Ginny, will you be my girlfriend? Will you go out with me?" he asked her. She definitely couldn't believe what she was hearing now! She tried to say 'Yes!' but the words wouldn't come out right.
"No, Malfoy! Never, not in a MILLION BILLION ZILLION YEARS WILL VIRGINIA WEASLEY GO OUT WITH YOU!"
