A/N: Hey everybody! This will also be posted on soon but it will still be on Xanga, it's just getting a summer home. Lol. I will still update Xanga. Well here's chapter 5 hope ya like it.
(Breakfast that Saturday of the Hogsmeade trip)
"Ginny are you ready to go get your costume for the ball? The carriages are leaving soon." Kat asked Ginny as she was reading in the common room as Beccs came up behind her, holding hands with Richard and sharing a secret smile with each other.
"Yeah coming." Ginny said, shoving her book in her bag and heading off with her friends.
"Ginny, over here." Malfoy called, the cool October wind whipped his chin length silvery blonde hair around his muscular face. Every girl in a twenty foot vicinity thought he was a sex GOD.
(A/N: Swoon…)
"Hi Draco." He pulled Ginny into a passionate kiss.
"Hey Gin, you've got to breath sometime!" Kat said and smiled as Ginny pulled back and gave her an evil look. "And we have to go get costumes for the ball. And it's bad luck to see your date in her costume before the ball! So, Malfoy, go play nice with the other kids, or come get your costume."
"I'll go get my costume, and I promise not to look at Ginny." Draco said with some dislike at the last bit.
"Good, then it's a date, looks like you have a guy to hangout with after all Brendan." Kat said as the guys shook hands and said normal guy grunts of greeting (I swear, that's what they do!).
With that they all strolled of together towards Miss Fit's Costume shop.
"Kat I hate this costume!" Ginny said as Kat pulled her into something. "It's too tight and too sluttish and I will not wear it!" Ginny said on the girls' side of the costume shop.
"Gin, you haven't even looked in the mirror yet, you would be surprised!" Kat said as she smiled at Ginny and told her to go look in at herself.
"Ka-at!" Ginny wined. "I don't want to look like a whore for the ball!"
"You won't I promise."
Ginny looked in the mirror, and to her surprise, liked what she saw.
"Ok. You're right. Let me get it off and we're buying this silly thing. Here's the tag, go get it wrung up and I'll be out in a minute." Ginny was happy because she was going buy something amazing that she loved and wasn't to sluttish.
(Halloween! Ginny, Kat and Beccs getting ready for the ball. :-D)
"Ok time for me to do everybody's make up! It's a good thing we're getting ready in your room because ours are much smaller than this." Kat said.
"Great! Ok Kat, do me up."
With a wave of her wand Kat said 'Halloween makeup' and Ginny was lookin scary.
"All right Gin! Lookin hot!" Said Kat.
"Why thanks hon!" Ginny said mimicking Kat's drawl.
"Kat do mine now please!" Beccs was rushing around like a chicken with its head cut off.
"Ok girl just stop pacing and give me a chance to focus on you! Geeze! What is up with you?" Kat asked.
"Nothing, I'm just so happy to be going to the ball with Richard yet feeling clichéd too because we are going as a famous Halloween couple."
"What's so wrong with that?" Asked Kat. "Brendan and I are going as a famous couple, but not a Halloween couple."
"Cool! I don't know what Draco's going as, but he's gonna be hot as always!" Ginny said with a slightly exaggerated swoon.
"Ok, now, Beccs, lets go back to our rooms and put on our costumes ok?" Kat asked.
"Coming." And with that they went to get ready for the ball.
Draco was getting ready for the ball in his dorm. He didn't know what Gin was wearing but he knew she would look beautiful in whatever she wore. He, dare he think it, loved her.
'Do I?' Draco thought to himself quietly. 'I mean, I think she's beautiful, but do I really love her? Yes. I do. I would do anything for Ginny. But what will my father think? His son and a Weasley. But I don't care. Father can go fuck himself anyway. He's a stupid bastard. May he rot in hell with his other death eater 'buddies'.'
After getting this pile of crap out of his system Draco was ready to get into his costume. He was going as a dementor. He was going just for kicks, and everyone else was going so what the hell?
Draco pulled his costume over his head while listening to Linkin Park's Breaking the Habit. He loved Linkin Park. They were his favorite band.
He was ready. To break the habit. He was going to disobey his father publicly. He was going to love a Weasley. And not give a flying fuck about what he said. It's not like he could do anything about it! Dumbledore passed a rule that parents couldn't take their children out of school for any reason this year. Dumbledore had so many charms and protections on the school it was better protected than Gringotts. And no one had broken in since first year, and after that the goblins upped the security and no one could get in, ever.
He was ready; he left to go get Ginny.
Ginny was almost ready, she was going as a female dementor. But with no hood. She was looking bitchin'. She was thinking about Draco and how much she, 'Oh my gods, do I love him?'
She was listening to Kelly Clarkson's Breakaway.
'I can not fall in love with him! My dad would kill me! A Weasley and a Malfoy? Like that's a storybook romance! I scoff! His dad would kill him and mine would kill me. It's like some screwed up version of Romeo and Juliet except we're not as daft.'
Ginny was taking the words of the song seriously. She was going to take a chance. She was going to break the chain. She, little good girl Ginny was going to love a Malfoy. She was going to let her hair down and live free! Ginny loved him and that was what mattered. But she hoped he felt the same way.
She was ready to put her heart on a limb and climb out to get the sweet fruits of her labor. Ginny left to go meet Malfoy for the ball.
"Ginny, you look beautiful love, umm… what are you?" Draco asked as he kissed her forehead and laced his fingers through hers.
"I'm a girl dementor, and it looks like we match baby." She looked up and smiled at him. "Did you plan this? Kat told you not to look. But I guess you are too much of a bad boy. And now I have to kiss you and steal you soul for that."
Ginny leaned up and kissed him. Giving him all the passion stored up inside her for the past years, fulfilling girlhood dreams of longing. He kissed her back, with the same passion and his hood fell back just as, you guessed it, Ron, Hermione and Harry came through the portrait hole to see them snogging.
"GINNY! What the hell are you doing? Have you lost your bloody mind?" Ron shouted at them. Ruining Ginny's moment of passion and really scaring the shit out of her.
"Look Weasel" Malfoy started, but Ginny put a hand to his mouth and stopped him.
"I'll handle this." She said.
"Ron, you are not my bodyguard anymore. I'm a big girl now, you can trust me not to make a bad choice. I can protect myself, and I know I've made the right choice. Can you trust me?" Ginny asked with pleading in her eyes.
"Ginny I trust you, it's just that piece of scum I don't trust!" Ron said as he attempted to get out of the hold Harry and Hermione had on him.
"No Ron! I'm starting to think you don't trust ME! You have nearly cursed guys who tried to ask me out! I'm in no need of a body guard now Ron. I can make the right choice. Just believe me ok?" Ginny walked over to Ron and gave him a hug and whispered this into his ear. "I know I have made the right choice here. Just let me go."
"Ginny I don't know why you want to do this. But I'll let you go with this stupid bastard. But heed these words Malfoy; if you make my sister shed one tear, just one, you are in a new world of hurt, understood?" Ron threatened.
"I won't hurt her Weasley. I promise to be a good little boy like Saint Potter here." Malfoy said.
"Draco, don't do that." Ginny said lacing her fingers through his. "There's light at the end of the tunnel and we might just have a chance, don't fuck it up. Ok baby?" She said quietly to him.
"Sorry Ginny, but we have history, you and I don't. I'll try to be good." Draco replied quietly to her.
"Is everybody ok with the current situation?" Ginny asked, getting a small yes from all her friends. But getting a large 'Go Ginny' from Kat, her date and Beccs and Richard who had already seen the before public exclusive showing of Draco and Ginny. Then the fab six now walked down towards the ball.
"But Draco," Ginny said softly so only he could hear, "I love you when you're bad."
(At the ball!)
Everybody was having a great time; the Wizarding Wireless Network had set up this performance by a hologram of the bands, giving the ball a real look and feel.
"And that was 1985 by Bowling for Soup! A great song! And now it's time for a slow dance, Kelly Clarkson's A Moment Like This A classic, ok couples, get out there and dance." And a hologram of Kelly Clarkson appeared and started belting out the song.
"Do you want to dance Gin?" Draco asked as all of her friends were leaving to go dance.
"Sure, why not?" Ginny loved to dance but she didn't want to make him feel uncomfortable by being, what her friends called her, a dancing freak she could dance to anything with a beat She danced to pop, Goth-rock , slow songs and hip-hop.
They got up and danced next to Ginny's friends as Pansy just arrived at the dance with her date, an unknown Slytherin 7th year boy that Draco couldn't stand for him being a known death-eater-in-training.
"Draco? Is that you? Who's that you got there?" Pansy asked as Ginny turned around to see who was talking to them.
"Hello Parkinson. What brings you from your bedroom to the ball? Got bored did we? Or just tired?" Draco said with loathing. He could not stand Pansy. She was the biggest slut of the school and having slept with half of the guys in it.
"Mini-Weasel? Malfoy is this some kind of sick joke? I new you were sneaking out with someone but this abomination? This can't be true!" Parkinson was speechless after Draco gave Ginny a smile.
"Parkinson, I believe you have met my girlfriend Ginny? I think you're a bit lightheaded dear, you should go lay down, or are you sick of doing that for tonight?" Malfoy was getting feisty.
"Draco, I think that's enough of the slut jokes ok?" Ginny asked. "Yes Pansy I am Draco's girlfriend; do you have a problem with that?"
"No Weasley. I don't. Malfoy can shag whoever he bloody wants."
And with that she stormed off with her date in tow. The song ended and a fast one came on, 50 Cent's In Da Club. Ginny loved this song and asked Draco if they could dance longer.
"You like to dance to hip-hop? I didn't know that." Draco said.
"You don't know many things about me Draco, but you will soon enough."
And they danced the night away, with it being punctuated by moments of snogging.
