Chapter: 5

"You said that Death Eaters attacked my house?" Draco asked.

Minerva nodded her head.

"Well then Snape was probably there and he must have saved them."

"Severus turned sides again, Draco. Harry Potter was captured because of this and more then half of the Order is in St. Mungo's."

"Harry's captured? Then how am I going to save Ginny?"

"We could form a rescue team to get Harry, then you can join up with him to save Ginny." Minerva said.

"How about we call in Hermione and Ron to help Draco save Harry and then move on to save Ginny?" Albus said while writing a note, then throwing powder into the fire. After it turned blue he then throwing the letter in too.

Shira looked up at her daddy.

"Daddy, we come too?" she asked with a pleading look.

"No, I'm sure Albus will watch you until I get back with mummy."

"Hmmm, maybe they should go with you." Albus added thoughtfully.

"Yes, I think that would be for the best."

"So tell us more about you and Ginny." Minerva said, getting comfortable in one of the chairs in Albus's office.

"Let me think. How about the first time we kissed?"

"Yes! That would be good!" Minerva said cheerfully.

Draco smirked and Albus chuckled. The kids looked up intently. Cardea yawned tiredly.

"Well, it was Christmas time that year. Ginny finally told Potter to leave her alone. She and I became closer friends. In fact, I would say her and I were best friends. That probably would be due to the fact the Charlie had been killed that October. Ginny loved Charlie the most, I would say, so she took it really hard. Hermione was comforting Ron and Harry was in his own world, so she turned to me for comfort. She was struggling for a long while. Then, right before Christmas break we got to go to Hogsmeade."

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

It had just snowed the night before. Everything was white and bright. Draco shielded his eyes. He was waiting right by the gate at the station for the carriages. He was waiting for her. They had promised to go into Hogsmeade together. Draco wanted to get Ginny something special - after all, he was graduating this year.

Then he saw her. The fiery red hair blowing in the wind. Her white skin and her rosy checks. A huge smile was on her face as she saw Draco waiting for her. He smiled at her in return. The only person he every smiled for.

He stuck out his arm and she wrapped her arm around his.

"Hello Draco. How long have you been waiting for me?"

"Not too long." He replied.

"I would have been here earlier but Ron was being a prat till Hermione told him to hush up." Ginny giggled at that. Draco looked down at her.

They walked into Hogsmeade just as it started to snow.

They went window shopping. Along the way Ginny stopped in this store or that store for a gift for one of her brothers or a friend. Draco then wanted to go into this one store. It was kind of creepy but Ginny liked it for the most part.

He went off to look at something. Ginny wandered around close to the entrance. Something caught her eye. She walked over towards it to get a better look. It was a silver pocket watch with a dragon etched into it. There were emeralds on the dragon.

She chocked back some tears as she thought of Charlie. A tear slipped down her check. Draco, who was walking towards her after he purchased a gift, came up behind her and wiped it away. He gave her a hug from behind.

"Ginny, it's going to be alright. No matter what, I promise I won't let you get hurt."

"Draco" She turned in his hug to face him, "I miss him so much. I don't want anyone else that I love to get hurt." Another tear run down her face. Draco wiped it away, too. "What if you get hurt? I would miss you too much. How would I live without you?" Ginny started to ramble.

"Ginevra Jane Weasley, calm down. I am not going to leave you." She still went on and on. Draco rolled his eyes.

"Ginny, if you don't stop I am going to have to kiss you." He warned her with a smile.

She of course didn't hear him. Maybe she did, but wanted him to kiss her anyways.

It didn't really matter because Draco leaned down and kissed her on the tip of her freckled nose. It tickled her and she scrunched up her face then laughed through her tears.

"Sorry about..." Draco started to say but was interrupted because Ginny stood up on her tips toes and pressed her lips upon his.

She knew right then that she would die for him. He knew right then that he would die for her. They both didn't realize though that they loved each other.

They were too young or foolish maybe to have seen that for them to have overcome hatred as strong as their's that it couldn't be anything but love. For now though they were happy in their denial of love. Strong friendship was all right. Maybe even strong liking but not love. A Malfoy and a Weasley could love each other.

But when you marry someone your last name changes so does it matter what it was before as long as you love them and they love you? Ginny thought to herself as she and Draco kissed for the third time.

This is going to be the best Holiday ever. Draco realized as he left the shop with his arm still around Ginny.

In a store near by a young boy with dark hair watched in fury as Ginny and Draco exited a store wrapped up in each other's embrace.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

There was a knock on the office door that brought Draco out of his memories once more. He looked up and Draco saw that Minerva had a dreamy look on her face and she sighed. Albus smiled and he looked thrilled about what he was hearing. His kids were just smiling and poking each other.

"Come in please!" Albus said, breaking the silence after that bit of romantic memory that Draco was reliving for them.

In walked Hermione, Ron, and their three year old son.
