I do apologize for putting up another exceptionally short chapter. I did not mean to do this. Honestly. I hope you will forgive me. I promise that the next chapter will be much longer.
"Draco, today we are going to go over how to do the Viennese Waltz," Mrs. Weasley said and walked over to a phonograph. "Ginny dear take your position."
Ginny nodded and walked up to Draco. She took his right hand and placed it near the small of her back. She placed her right hand on his shoulder and took his left in hers.
Mrs. Weasley wound up the phonograph and placed the needle on the record. A beautiful 3/4 waltz began to float through the air and Mrs. Weasley flicked her wand at the furniture and it moved to the side.
Draco just stood there looking clueless as Mrs. Weasley moved across the room and sat down taking up a set of knitting needles. The afternoon sun lit the room making Ginny's hair glow and Draco look slightly angelic.
Ginny began to lead them. They swirled about the room until Draco tripped and took Ginny to the floor with him.
Ginny clung to her wrist. Draco dragged her to him.
"Ginny I am so sorry. I did not mean to trip us
"Ginny, you don't lead. Let him," Mrs. Weasley said as she continued with the needle clacking. It was a green wool jumper with a silver snake on the chest and a letter D on the back.
They broke apart at Mrs. Weasley's soft words. After she was silent and knitting again they moved back together and Draco placed a tense hand on her waist. Ginny placed her hand gently on Draco's shoulder and allowed him to take her hand again.
Draco quivered a little. Ginny squeezed his hand and softly rubbed his shoulder. Draco closed his eyes and let out a shuddering sigh. The music eventually reached his brain again and he began to remember this waltz. He pulled Ginny a little closer to himself and began to spin with her there.
Mrs. Weasley watched the two children and smiled remembering the first time she had danced with Arthur. She continued to clack the needles together knitting carefully as she watched her only daughter.
The music began to slow down about fifteen minutes later.
"Ginny you need to teach him the Foxtrot and the Tango. It is likely that he will be expected to perform them," Mrs. Weasley said smiling.
Draco led the Foxtrot with grace and ease. Forward, forward, slightly forward to the side and moving his foot up next to it. It seemed as if Draco had danced a Foxtrot everyday of his life. As the song ended Mrs. Weasley applauded them and was joined by a chorus of Mr. Weasley's clapping.
"Beautiful Children," she said. "I think we had best bring the dancing to a close here."
This was the way most of the days commenced with a great amount of joy on both Ginny and Draco's part. They took several walks every week and Draco would spill his worries sometimes. But usually they just sat together quietly and enjoyed the other's company or if it was early enough in the evening they would take a book and read together. Those months to Ginny were the best she had ever had in a long time. She had missed having someone she could talk to.
Please Review if you have something nice to say. I would greatly appreciate it. I will try to have an update next week but I have finals all next week so I will do the best I can.
