Draco had been standing in the shadows of the door way when Virginia burst through the door. He had been planning on heading back to the ball after things had calmed down, but now he knew he wouldn't have to.

He decided to follow her angry form as she stomped down towards the lake. He chose hide behind a nearby tree. She was only about five feet away from him, but her back was towards him as she looked out on the lake.

Suddenly she turned and he tried to make himself as invisible as possible. He stared at her. She looked majestic in green and even more beautiful when she was mad. He peered into her eyes and realized the light brown had turned a deep red, with only a hint of brown. She looked like she was going to kill someone.

Then the most astonishing thing he's ever seen happened. She opened her mouth and yelled a common warming charm.

He smiled quickly because he had come accustom to her odd ability to do spells without a wand, which he figured was only with certain spells, but the smile quickly faded into utter bewilderment mixed with fear.

He felt his body warm and the snow beneath his feet disappear as a wave of warm wind hit him. He was almost knocked back by the force, but he kept a hold of the tree and his eyes on the form in front of him.

She seemed to have released something deep within her and as the wind caused her hair to dance about her and her robes to twist with fury, he saw all the hidden truth of his goddess.

'What the hell?' was all he could think as she sat down on the ground under a tree facing him. A thought crossed his mind rather quickly and he wondered if Voldemort would have stood a chance against her.

He then felt something he absolutely NEVER felt for anyone else but himself, pride. He was proud of her. She seemed so small and fragile to others, but she wasn't, not in the least. And no one else had any idea.

Finally everything fit into place, like why she was having secret meetings with the Headmaster and that cow McGonagall. He decided he should stop cowering behind the tree and announce his presence.

'Might as well get everything out in the open,' he thought as he stepped out from behind the tree.

'Shit!!' Ginny's heart yelped as she heard the steps on the grass in front of her.

It had only been a few steps, so she knew whoever it was had seen her perform the spell.

'Stupid Bloody Git!!' She spat at herself mentally. She looked up and met a pair of perfect silver eyes staring at her.

"Are you going to tell anyone what you saw?" she asked as she tore away from his gaze and instead elected to look at his shoes. They were nice and shiny and black. She thought with a smile.

'I wish I could die!'
