I Don't own the wonder fabulous boy who lived or his enemy the most beautiful Draco Malfoy.

Thursday

September 5th

"She is a looker this year." Goyle said as he crammed his mouth with food.

"But have you seen the twins." Crabbe replied.

"No she is still hotter, after all you know what they say about red heads." Goyle argued.

"No. What?" Crabbe asked.

"You know, the burning bush."

"What's that mean?"

"I don't know."

"What are you two blabbering on about?" Draco asked as he sat down.

"Goyle wants to shag the weasel." Blaise spoke up. "Crabbe thinks the twins are hotter. Neither one of them know what the 'burning bush' mean."

"She wouldn't shag you." Draco said talking to Goyle.

Goyle glared at Draco. "She would too."

"No she wouldn't." Draco replied. "Even if she would she's mine."

"Says who?"

"I do." Draco replied his voice getting deadly serious. "I have plans for her."

"Well I have my own." Goyle said standing up.

"Don't mess with her Goyle." Draco hissed. "You will regret it."

Goyle laughed harshly. "Draco I can take you."

Draco didn't reply he just smirked before he walked away. If Goyle wanted to think that than let him. The biggest mistake you could make is by underestimating your enemy. And from this point that's what Goyle was, his enemy. As he was walking out of the Great Hall he spotted Ginny walking in his general direction.

"Hullo Weasel." Draco said cooly.

"Bugger off." Ginny replied.

"Five points from Gryffindor for showing so little respect."

"You might want to go ahead and take off another five points."

"Why is that?" Draco inquired.

"Because of what I'm about to tell you." Ginny replied smiling.

"Which is?"

"Go to hell."

"Ouch. You wound me." Draco replied sarcastically.

Ginny rolled her eyes as she started to walk past him.

"Listen." Draco said grabbing her on the arm and turning her to face him.

"Let go of me." Ginny said tensing up.

"I'm not trying to hurt you." Draco said letting her go. "I was just wondering if you were going to Hogsmeade this weekend with anyone?"

Ginny let out a little laugh. "Don't kid yourself." She turned to leave. "As if I would ever go to Hogsmeade with a Malfoy."

"I know. Who would have thought you could be so lucky."

"Haven't I already told you what I've thought of my luck?" Ginny asked turning to him. "Remember, my luck sucks quidditch balls."

"The little weasel is a comedian, who would have known?" Draco asked sardonically.

"Why don't you ask Pansy to go with you." Ginny smiled innocently. "I'm sure she would have fun."

Draco rolled his eyes. "She's a bit mad at me at the moment."

Ginny laughed. "What did you do? Not sleep with her. I think that's the only thing you could do that she would actually be mad about."

"As a matter of fact."

"Couldn't get it up?" Ginny smirked.

"I thought you were suppose to be innocent." Draco smirked back.

"I have six brothers." Ginny replied. "You tend to hear stuff. Of course no one would blame you. It is Pansy after all."

"Too true." Draco agreed. "So Hogmeade."

"I thought I answered that question already." Ginny replied. "No I'm going alone. And let me save you the trouble. I don't want to go with you. I don't want your bad reputation to rub off on me."

"It would be a shame too, considering how sweet and innocent you are."

"You forgot the fact that I'm not evil."

"Of course because I'm a Malfoy. I must be evil."

"No because you are you, and you are evil."

"Once again, ouch. You do know how to hurt a boy."

"Please." Ginny rolled her eyes. "If I hurt you in anyway it would only be your ego. Which believe me could use some deflating."

"I don't have an ego." Draco smirked. "I'm just truthful."

"Sure." Ginny replied sarcastically. "You're truthful and I'm rich."

"It could be possible." Draco said.

"And you could be a pain."

"Am I bothering you Weasel?" Draco asked her. "I just though since you were so lonely."

"I'm not lonely." Ginny replied.

"Isn't that what the picture meant?" Draco asked eyeing her.

"No." Ginny lied.

"Here's a tip." Draco said leaning close to her and whispering in her ear. "When you are going to lie, look the person in the eyes. It's more believable." Draco brushed past Ginny and walked down the hall.

Ginny just stood there. Confusion was running through her. Did Malfoy just ask her out? Why did he just ask her out? What was his sudden fascination with her? Ginny shook her head. It was only breakfast and already her day was weird. At least she hadn't had another dream.


Draco smirked as he walked away from Ginny. That was truly entertaining. When she got irritated her cheeks turned a rosy pink and she pursed her lips. And she had been quite irritated with him. Then he thought of her turning him down and the smirk flew off his face.

Rejection? That didn't happen to Draco. It had only happened once before and he had never been rejected since. Damn her. She wasn't suppose to reject him. Why couldn't she be in love with him like all the other girls were. If he lost his room she would pay. She would pay dearly.

Draco went to class and sat there waiting for it to start. The morning went by in a blur. Draco was busy reworking his game plan. His mind was on other things than magic.


"Hullo Blaise." Ron said as he passed him in the hallway.

"Decided not to hate me then?" Blaise asked.

"I never hated you."

Blaise gave him a unbelieving look.

"Not you specifically. Just your house." Ron corrected himself.

"Don't blame you there." Blaise smiled. "I hate most of them myself."

"I didn't know Slytherins could smile." Ron said with a little smirk.

"Don't worry." Blaise told him. "The rest of them don't smile Just me. We wouldn't want to ruin your view of Slytherins."

"So, is there anything I can do for you?" Ron asked. "Because you started talking to me all of a sudden this year. and I didn't know why."

"No." Blaise replied. "Just thought it might be nice to make a new friend."

"Oh, okay." Ron said confused. "Well I gotta go. I'll see you later."

"Ron." Blaise said quickly.

"Yeah?"

"Do you want to hang out this weekend, maybe at Hogsmeade."

"Sure." Ron replied. "Harry and Hermione are going off on something. Didn't tell me what Hermione won't talk to me. We can hang I suppose."

Blaise's face lit up. "Okay see you then."


"Ron?" Ginny called to her brother later at lunch.

"What?" Ron asked turning around.

"Have you noticed that some of the Slytherins have been acting weird?" she asked him.

"Not really." Ron replied. "Except for some Blaise fellow. Seems he wants to be friends."

Ginny stifled a laugh. "Oh okay."

"What's so funny?"

"Nothing." Ginny smiled. "Just Blaise, funny name."

"I know." Ron agreed. "You aren't having problems with any Slytherins are you?"

"No." Ginny lied. "Just thought they were acting weird. I must be wrong. you know how I am."

"Yeah." Ron agreed looking at her like he wasn't sure. "Anyways lunch is calling to me."

"Go eat." Ginny said. "I already did. I have some homework I have to finish up."

Ginny left the Great Hall and hurried to the library. She pulled out a sketch book. This one was empty and she turned to the first page. She quickly drew out a picture and carefully tore it out. She folded it up and tucked it in her pocket. Then she ran off to her next class.


"Professor Snape." Draco said walking up to him.

"Yes Mr. Malfoy?"

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you this sooner sir." Draco started out. "Last night when Ms. Weasley was doing her detention she used magic to clean." Draco stopped for a minute. "I know how much you hate for kids to disobey you and since it is my fault that I didn't keep her from using magic. I though that maybe you would like her to make up her detention and I would supervise her." Draco looked at Professor Snape. "I promise sir that I won't let her use magic tonight."

"Very well." Professor Snape said nodding. "Be in the potions classroom tonight at eight. I will let Ms. Weasley know that she is to serve another detention."

"As you wish." Draco replied as he walked away. He smirked to himself. This plan had to work.

Draco walked back to his table and sat down.

"What was that about?" Blaise asked him.

"Nothing." Draco replied. "Don't be shocked if you can't find me tonight."

"Don't be shocked if you can't find me Saturday." Blaise replied.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm hanging out with Ron." Blaise said quietly. "Just friends, though."

Draco smirked. "Looks like you got some guts after all."

"I have a plan."

"For?"

"For finding out whether or not I have a chance."

"Which is?"

"You'll find out eventually." Blaise said getting up. "The goons are coming this way."

Draco looked up and sure enough Crabbe and Goyle were coming to eat lunch.

"Still going to go after the little weasel?" Draco asked Goyle coldly.

"Yes." Goyle replied.

"Too bad." Draco smirked. "I'll be seeing her tonight at eight."

Draco got up and left the Great Hall. Goyle was left standing there, fuming. Draco didn't get it. Why did Goyle care so much. It wasn't like Ginny was that hot. Was she? Draco never really looked at her. She was a Gryffindor after all. Maybe next time he saw her he should actually look at her.


"Ms. Weasley." Professor Snape said walking up to her in the hall.

"Yes Professor?" Ginny asked.

"Mr. Malfoy informed me that you didn't complete you punishment as instructed therefore you will have another detention tonight at eight." Professor Snape told her.

"Yes sir." Ginny replied trying to lose her temper. That rat. He lied to Snape. Now she would have to go to detention again. Was this all because she wouldn't go out with him? What an idiot.

Ginny sighed as she walked up to her dorm room. If she had to go to detention again she might as well wear something she doesn't mind getting dirty. She threw on some jeans and an old t-shirt of some band she use to love. She looked at her watch, it was only seven. She had a while before she had to be down there. Ginny sat down on her bed and started to draw in her sketch book. She didn't know what she had drawn till she took a minute to look at it. She was about to scribble over but changed her mind.

"Really, even if it is a picture of Malfoy and me at Hogsmeade, it isn't bad." Ginny said quietly to herself.

She tucked the sketch book underneath her pillow and started downstairs.

"Sorry I'm late Prof-" Ginny started and stopped when she saw who was in the room.

"Hullo little weasel." Draco smirked at her.

"Why did you tell Professor Snape that I didn't complete my punishment as instructed?" Ginny asked him angrily.

"I don't know what you are talking about." Draco replied looking Ginny directly in the eyes.

"Liar."

"But if you didn't know better you would have believed me." Draco replied.

"You still haven't answered my question." Ginny said angrily.

"No sketch book tonight?" Draco asked her ignoring her previous question.

"Where is Professor Snape?" Ginny asked him.

"Since I was the one who accidently let you use magic, I told Professor Snape that I would watch you myself." Draco said smirking.

"So what is my punishment?" Ginny asked him crossly.

"You are suppose to wipe down all the desks and sweep and mop the floor. Without magic." Draco added.

"That won't take too long." Ginny replied smiling like she had just bested him.

"Then he wants you to clean out his cauldron." Draco replied with a smirk. "Seems he got something in it, and it might take some elbow grease."

"Stupid Prat." Ginny muttered under her breath as she got to work.

Draco sat there and watched her. Every few minutes she would mutter something under her breath as she worked. Draco assumed she was probably cursing him. Not that he blamed her, but hey he was a Malfoy, she should hate him. Really though, the only reason he had done this is because he wanted to be alone with her again. Maybe then he could find some window to make a move on her.

Draco looked at her. His eyes sweeping over her body. Her hair was curly and red, but not frizzy. It fell to just below her shoulders. Her face was dotted with freckles. Draco hated freckles. Her eyes were big and brown and her lips were full. She had a little button nose which she kept wrinkling in disgust. She was a short girl, not that short was bad. After all it wasn't like Draco liked girls taller than him, which was unusual to find considering he was tall. She didn't have much of a figure but she did have some great hips. Probably great legs too Draco though.

"What?" Ginny asked.

"What?" Draco said snapping out of his thoughts.

"You were staring at me." Ginny pointed out. "What?"

"Nothing." Draco replied. "Just making sure you weren't using magic."

"That's such crap." Ginny muttered.

"Can you hurry up?" he asked her. "Some of us have things to do."

"You are kidding me right?" Ginny asked him. "It's your fault I'm here."

Draco nodded. "True, but still."

Ginny sighed. "You could help."

"Me? Help?" Draco scoffed.

"Silly me." Ginny said rolling her eyes. "I forgot your a Malfoy. They don't do work, they enslave people to do it for them." She laughed. "I bet you don't even know how to mop do you?"

"No."

"That's so funny."

"How is it funny?"

"It's just such an easy thing to do." Ginny replied. "I've been sweeping since I was eight."

"Good for you."

"You know." Ginny said raising an eyebrow. "You could always learn. Be different than all your Slytherin pals, you know, be able to be useful."

"I am useful." Draco argued.

"How?"

"I don't have to answer that."

"Yeah, you're real useful." Ginny agreed turning her back to him and starting to sweep.

Draco muttered something and the broom flew out of her hand. It started to sweep itself around the room. "Told you I was useful."

"Great." Ginny said exasperated. "Now you are going to go tell Snape I used magic."

"Well that would be stupid." Draco replied. "Since I was the one who did it. I don't want to be here all night."

"Got a hot date with Pansy?" Ginny smirked. "She seems to miss you."

"She just hasn't been laid in a while." Draco replied walking over to Snape's cauldron and cleaning it with the wave of his wand.

"So of course she goes to you." Ginny told him. "After all when's the last time you turned down a good shag?"

"Two days ago." Draco replied. "Though it wouldn't have been a good shag."

"Poor Pansy." Ginny said as she walked towards him. "Here this is for you." Ginny held out a piece of parchment out to him. "I drew it just for you."

"And you said you didn't like me." Draco smirked.

"Oh, I don't." Ginny replied as she walked out of the potion's classroom.

Draco unfolded the parchment. It was a picture of a Blast Ended Skwert. Draco let out a little snort of laughter before he folded it back up and tucked it in his pocket.

"She should have been a Slytherin." He muttered to himself as he walked out of the classroom.


Ginny chuckled to herself as she walked back up to her dorm room. She got Draco to finish her cleaning for her and she gave him that damn picture. All in all, it wasn't a bad night. She sat on her bed and pulled her sketch book out from under her pillow. She flipped it open and started on the Hogsmeade picture again. If she wasn't going to rip it out she might as well finish it. Ginny worked late into the night on the picture. She worked until she finished it and then she went to bed.
