Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or any of the songs... I only own copies of the books and cds!!
A/N: Umm... I don't have anything to say. Sorry!! Oh wait, I sort of do!!
This chapter is dedicated to Sarah because she got my lovely question right!! The title and the chapter titles are all from 'So Far So Good' (told you it was easy!) by Thornley!! It's a great song, I suggest you listen to it...
And how can you leave
A place you've never been to
Or run away from something
That's not chasing
And it never was

Chapter Six: I'm Sick and Tired of Coming Up For Air
Draco sat in one of the Parkinson's libraries with a glass of brandy in one hand, his wand twirling in the other. He had been in here for the past hour, hiding from Ginny and everyone else.
Draco hadn't realized the extent of his own feelings for Ginny until tonight: first with Pansy unexpectedly kissing him and then even more so watching Potter kiss Ginny. And now he knew that he had fallen for the Weasley girl and fallen hard.
The door creaked open slowly as he took another sip of his drink.
"Draco, there you are! I've been looking all over for you."
Draco stood up and set his glass down on the side table. "Ginny? What happened to your voice? And your hair, you changed it back already?"
Ginny giggled and twirled an auburn piece of hair around her finger. "Oh! My voice is just a little hoarse. And Hermione taught me the spell for my hair. Don't worry about it, that's not the reason I'm here."
"Then why are you here? What do you want Red?"
Ginny walked forward until their bodies were touching. "I wanted to do this."
And then she kissed him.
Draco's thoughts all fled from his mind the second their lips met. He forced his tongue into Ginny's mouth and they fell backwards together on the couch. He could feel her body squirming under him but thought nothing of it.
Then, suddenly, Draco heard a not-so-subtle cough coming from the doorway. He broke off the kiss and saw a black-haired girl standing in the entrance of the room, tears streaming down her cheeks. She looked remarkeably like-
"Ginny!?"
Ginny had been running around the Parkinson's manor for almost an hour and she was almost ready to give up. After she had seen Draco, Ginny had rushed past her familiy, ignoring their shouts, and had tried to find him. But it was obvious that Draco had been here before because he had disappeared quickly.
She had turned back in what she thought was the direction of the ballroom when she saw an open door. Ginny crossed over to it and stepped inside. What she saw instantly made tears come to her eyes. She coughed to get the couple's attention and tried her best not to run out yelling.
The man looked up and his eyes widened, confused. "Ginny!?"
"Hello, Draco." Ginny kept her voice as even as she could. She nodded her head in the direction of the girl. "Pansy."
Draco gulped nervously when he heard the Ginny in the doorway say "Pansy". He turned around to look at the girl he had just been kissing and immediately fell off of the couch in surprise.
"PANSY!?"
Ginny almost laughed at the expression on Draco's face. "What, Malfoy, didn't know who you were snogging?"
Draco just sat there blinking, looking back and forth between the two girls. "She-she looked like you!" He squinted his eyes in confusion.
Pansy laughed. "Of course I did, you bastard. It's called a Polyjuice Potion."
Ginny stared at Pansy. "Why the hell would you do that?"
"Why do you think, Red? Hm?"
Ginny opened her mouth to speak but before she could Mr. Weasley appeared behind her in the doorway.
"Ginny, come on, we're leaving."
Ginny turned around, furious. "What do you mean, we? Last time I checked, I didn't live with you!"
Mr. Weasley grapped her arm. "Well you do now. Your mother and I have decided not to let you live with those three wizards anymore." He spat out the word 'wizards' like it was a disgrace to be one. "And you're not to be in that band anymore either. Let's go."
Ginny was helpless to do anything as her father dragged her out of the room. She looked back at Draco, pleading with her eyes, but he simply sat there with his head in his hands. Probably worried because he lost his lead guitarist, Ginny thought sarcastically.
