Chapter 4: The Secret
"Um.. excuse me, miss?"
Ginny didn't look up from her sanwich. "Hm?"
"Your hoodie... you need to take it off. It's covering your face."
Licking the mayo off of her knife (A/N2: I know this is a totally nasty thing to do, but I do it all the time, and it's good!), she looked up at him. "Oh! I'm sorr-" She stopped abruptly. "Oh. Hello, Draco."
Draco, looking only slightly taken aback, smirked. "Ah, if it isn't Weasley Child #7."
She rolled her eyes. "So it's true."
"What's true?"
"You're one of the producers. Yes, Mina told me, but I must say, I didn't quite beleive that a Malfoy would stoop as low as a reality t.v. show."
Draco's eyes narrowed. "I'm doing this as a favor to my best friend."
Ginny looked genuinely surprised. "Oh! Is that right? Wow! And silly ol' me thought that Malfoy's were unable to actually have normal relations, such as friendship, with fellow wizards without some sort of satanic ritual and a human sacrifice," she said sarcastically.
"My, my, Weaslette. What a tounge we have! I guess that's what growing up with no money and six brothers will do to you."
She pointed her knife at him. "Hey, Malfoy?"
"Hm?"
"Shut up."
"Hurry up, Mina! I've gotta go!" Ginny shouted, pounding on the bathroom door. That sanwich from earlier was catching up with her.
The door opened quickly, revealing a blushing Mina. "Sorry."
"It's alright, I- hey. What are you doing with a cell phone in the-"
Mina slapped a hand over Ginny's mouth. "Shh!" She hissed, looking around at the security camera. She dragged Ginny into the bathroom and shut the door.
"What the hell are you doing?" Ginny exclaimed.
"The bathrooms are the only rooms without security cameras. And I'm not supposed to have a cell phone."
"So?"
"So? The bathroom is the only place I can call my fiancee."
Ginny was cofused. "If you have a fiancee, why are you on the show?"
"Because," Mina sighed, suddenly looking like a very small child, "Me and Kevin were supposed to get married months ago, but his mother just out of the blue took him out of her will for her inherritance for planning to marry a- a mudblood-"
Ginny gasped.
"-like me. So now, we don't have any money. And when I heard about the show, and the million galleon prize, I asked him if- if it would be alright..."
Ginny wrapped her new friend in a hug. "It's okay. Your secret's safe with me."
