Draco sighed contentedly as the wind ripped lightly through his hair. Him and Ginny
were walking side by side around the garden, and weaving in and out of trees.
After dinner they had excused themselves to do so, with the timid exception of
her parents.
" Mother, may we go for a walk until dark. I promise we won't be gone long."
Skeptical looks came from five directions as Mrs. Weasley, Mr. Weasley, Harry, Fred and
George all begun to protest. " Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, I don't think she should..."
" Mom! She can't!"
" Father! She can't"
" Virginia it is almost dark..."
" Honey, why not just stay indoors..."
Surprisingly refuge came from Ron. " Let her go mum, he won't do anything and dark
isn't for another hour in the least." He didn't look up, he just kept pushing his
food around.
" Oh...all-alright. But be back in one hour!" She had to yell after them, because by
the time she had out 'But-' they were almost out the door.
Now they were lazily making their way around the house.
" I'm happy you're here." She slipped her hand into his and stood on tip toe to give
him a quick kiss.
" I'm happy to be here too, love." He wrapped his arm around her and continued
walking. She shivered. 'he's taller than before.' she snuggled up to him as best
she could while she kept walking.
" I didn't think your parents would welcome me that fast. It was very unexpected."
He leaned over a kissed the top of her head. They stopped walking and sat carefully
under a large walnut tree.
" Actually they didn't accept you quick at all. I spent most of the summer trying to
convince them to let you stay. I had to work a month on my da' and two weeks on mum.
And they still said you were going to make you stay with the garden gnomes, It took me
three more weeks to make them let you stay on the couch, then Ron insisted you stay in
a proper room... "
" Ron? Hmm, wonder what made him do that?"
" He's pretty big on second chances. I mean look at him and Hermione. When they met
it was nothing but fighting. Harry told me so. Then bam! I catch 'em snogging on the
couch at three in the morning."
A deep laugh escaped him and he leaned forward as giggles shook him.
" You think that's funny? I caught mum and da there the same night at one!"
Draco snorted, and tried to catch his breath.
" I wonder what you have to do to book an hour on that couch." He wiggled his eye brows
in a mock evil look. " Like say around two?"
