I sat there, still pretending to be asleep.
She rememberd the last time.
"Ginny we need to talk to you..."
"No you dont, get away. I don't want to talk to you, I want to go upstairs, and that will be the end of it. OK!"
Then she stormed upstairs...she got away this time.
She thought that moment was so scary, she thought they would have found out about her and Draco.
But now...oh now was a different story.
"Dammit Ginny get up NOW!"
She got up, pushed back the chair, grabbed her robe, and went for the door. Hermione grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
"You stop!"
"Excuse me?!"
"What the hell are these? Did Draco do this to you?"
'Oh...my...Merlin...that is the worst thing she could have said. What, did Ginny not look brave enough to have done it to herself? That she would have to be subjected to more pain after what Harry did?
All Ginny could do was stare at her with her mouth dropped open and her eyes narrow. She didn't have anything to say. She felt she had been smacked across the face by the lowest life form in the universe.
"Let...go...of...me...."
Ginny threw her arm down and went to the door again.
"DID HE?!"
"NO YOU IDIOT! You may be SMART but your not that BRIGHT."
Hermione just stood there as Ginny stormed out of the room.
Ginny walked down the hall. She felt like crying, she held it in as much as she could but it all came out. She turned her walk into a run and went as fast as she could to her dorm.
Nothing could have hurt her as bad as that. What in hell was her problem? How could she have gotten caught so soon? Things were going so well. All good things must come to an end.
"Ah! Watch...it. Ginny?"
Draco watched as she pushed past him and down the hall she went.
"Great. Now I feel like chasing her."
He ran close behind her, and yet he couldn't catch up.
"Ginny, wait! HEY!"
He finally caught up with her.
She could feel him grab her arm, and all she could do was fall to the floor. She had no energy, no strength.
"Ginny, don't make me carry you."
She raised her eyebrows and got up. She stopped crying for the moment and dusted off her robes and wiped the tears off her face.
"Why were you..."
Draco could hear Hermione's voice. Ginny's eyes widened and she turned to run again. He grabbed her and pulled her into the shadows. Draco covered her mouth, Ginny pulled his hand off and looked up at him again with confused eyes.
He pretended he didn't see her and held her back in the shadows.
'Umm, some dude is holding you in the shadows. And I'm not trying to escape.' She felt she could say she almost trusted Draco. She scooted herself further back, just to be sure.
"Ginny! Where are you? Come one Ginny!"
She felt safe there.
He felt protective.
Hermione came running right past them and didn't even bother to look where they were.
Ginny smiled and let go of her lip which she was biting.
"Come on, my room isn't to far from here. You can hide out there for now."
Ginny didn't know what else to do or say, so she nodded her head and followed him. - 'I watched you change
into a fly
I looked away
you were on fire...' - She didn't know why she suddenly felt like this. He turned to look at her and her body tensed up.
Draco saw her get nervous when he looked at her. He actually smiled back.
'Wow something's wrong here Gin. something is definitely wrong.'
They turned the corner and next to a small portrait. He traced the outlining then said something.
Ginny knew she was blushing. For some reason she could feel it.
The wall moved up and a staircase was before them. He motioned for her to go in first.
'The brute has MANNORS?!"
She started to walk up when she heard a voice yell..."Draco!"
They looked at each other.
Ginny held her robe next to her heart. She could feel it pounding.
'What do we do now?'
