First off, I just wanna say to everyone that you all should be thanking sexytexy for this rather fast update.  This person not only left me a four paragraph review, but she also gave me a huge head, so I gotta deflate it by writing. Hehe.  As you all know I love all of you who continually read my story, but I gotta give props to the person with the four paragraph review.  I mean we gotta give credit where credits due right? ^_^  Just remember I don't love any of you less.

Ok party people on with the show.  Oh! Quick P.S. the Draco kissing Ginny threw people off, but don't worry I think I've conjured up a very "Malfoy" explanation.

Here goes nothing.

~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Chapter 10: Cheap Shots

"It was when you were drunk." He repeated.

Ginny proceeded to look at him like he had three heads (yah so I'm sure there is a spell for that, but just go with it.), "What the bloody hell are you talking about Ferret?"

"When we were at the restaurant the other night, you got pissed (means drunk) off your arse, and then passed out in the car.  I tried to wake you up, but you wouldn't get up so I had to drag you into the house, and Weaslette, you aren't as light as you look," He smirked.

"Ferret why you…" She was cut off.

"Later!  Anyway I put you in your bed and then you grabbed my face and kissed me."  His smirk got bigger, "Of course I can't blame you, I mean, I am practically a god, what female wouldn't want to?"

She glared at him, "Any sober woman."  She crossed her arms, "Beside Ferret, you kissed me just a few hours ago, What about that? Hm Mister 'I'm too cool for school'.

His lips were so warm…

Ginny shook her head violently trying to stop the blush from appearing on her face.

Draco stared at her.

Damn, I forgot about that, shit!

Being the sly Slytherin he is, Draco came up with a quick excuse on the spot. (A.K.A. I just came up with an excuse on the spot, hehe, j/k…maybe…)

He smirked once more, "Simple Weaslette, I was simply returning the favor, I didn't want you to kiss me, but you did anyway.  I'm positive you don't want any part of me near you so I kissed you out of spite really."

Liar.

Bugger off!

Ginny's eyes went big, she didn't know whether to cry or be pissed.

Never let a Malfoy see you cry.

She started out some what quiet, "First, you make me be your maid and harass me beyond humanly necessary, Second, you insult my mother and call her 'dumpy'," with each word she was getting closer and closer to him, "Third, you humiliate me at the restaurant by flirting with that slut of a server, and lastly you insult me, for no good godly reason!!"  She grabbed his collar, "Who the fuck do you think you are Malfoy?  You're nothing more then a Voldemort, Deatheater peon with a cocksucker of a father, who is no more than a Voldey Oldie lacky!!"

She looked away for a moment and 'pfft' and then looked back at him with her own malicious smirk, "At least my mum and dad love me, what do you have lil Drakey, hm?"  She then backed away, "I have breakfast to make."  With that she walked into the kitchen.

That'll teach him…stupid git.

That was a bit harsh, wasn't i?  I mean what he said was kinda mean, but you were brutal.

Pfft, he's been doing this to my family for years now.

Are you him?

…..Shut up!

Ginny sighed, raking her hands threw her hair.

I'll apologize later…maybe…

And so she proceeded to make breakfast, for two.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Draco just stared towards the kitchen totally at a lose for words.

Did she… What the… That can't be…

"ARGH!", he was pissed now.

He yelled towards the kitchen, "Figures Weaslette!  You can't handle a battle so you throw out old jabs and then turn tale and leave!!  Next time trying something new!"

He didn't hear a response.

The bitch isn't listening to me!

He got up and went into the kitchen.

*~*~*~*~*~*~

Draco walked over to Ginny, grabbing her shoulders and turning her to face him, "So I'm a Deatheater am I?"  He smiled evilly his face mere inches from her's, "Say shit like that again girl and I'll show you how Deatheater I can be!  You hear me?!"

Ginny stared at him looking a bit scared, she kept her mouth shut.

I'm sorry Draco, I didn't mean it…

She looked away.

Draco saw the look of utter terror on her face.

Like your mother when father is angry.

Draco shook his head and let go of her.  He then looked at her downcast face and then looked away.

Shit, I'm no better…

Why should I be?  I'm a Malfoy, she's a Weasley, and she counts for nothing.

Then why'd you stop? Why did you let go.

He needed a walk, that's what he needed.  "Don't bother cooking for me today; I'll be gone most of the day."  That said he quickly left the kitchen and then the house.

(Okay that was kinda dark, but it will end brightly, promise. ^_^)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Nine Hours.

Nine hours.

Ginny sat eating her ramen.

It's five o'clock, where is he?

Now she really started to feel guilty about what she said. "Why do I always do this?  Act before I think?"  She said out loud to no one in particular.

Because you're Ginny, it's what you do. This time the voice sounding like Colin.

*~*~*~*~ Flashback ~*~*~*~*

Ginny plopped down on her head, "Why do I always do this?"

Colin sat down next to her and laughed, "Because you're Ginny, it's what you do."  He then smiled at her, "Yah, so what if you're big mouth got 50 points taken from Gryffindor.  It was worth it to see Snape's face when you told him off and to stop picking on poor little Faile (random Gryff girl I made up).  And then told him to 'shove his remarks where the sun don't shine.'"  He laughed harder.  "I have a picture of his face too, see?"  Shows her the picture.

Ginny rolled over on her back, "Colin you're missing the point, yah I stood up for Faile, but now everyone will be angry, 50 points is no laughing matter."

"So apologize if you feel so bad."

Ginny made a face, "Like hell, that prune of a man deserved every word I threw at him, what I did was right!"

Colin laughed gently, "I don't know then love, but whatever you come up with will do fine."  He leaned over and kissed her forehead, "you have a good heart love, and things will be fine in the end."  He stood up, "Now, we go to dinner," He wiggled his eyebrows, "time to eat."

Ginny rolled her eyes and got up, "and for you to check out the guys."  She giggled.

*~*~*~*~ End Flashback ~*~*~*~*

She smiled to herself as she finished her ramen.

Thank you Colin.  Which reminds me I'll have to write him soon.

After she cleaned up she decided to take a walk on the beach to clear her head some and figure out what to do about Draco.

As she walked by the shoreline she noticed another figure walking towards her.  Once she saw the blonde, almost white, hair she knew who it was.

Draco

*~*~*~*~*~*

Draco had been walking about the beach for the past nine hours.  He wasn't exactly mad about the insults, but…

I expect more from her.  I mean her brother would say things like that, but not her, right?

A Weasley is a Weasley, male or female.

Yah!

At the moment he looked up to see the notorious Weasley red hair and sighed.

I most have scared the shit out of her.

She deserved it!

He saw her stop once she saw him.  He continued walking towards her.

She'll probably just run away anyway.

Ginny was still as stone.

Run away!  Run away!

Ginny shook her head and stood her ground.

No! I'm not scared of this brat, and I'm not going to let him push me around.

*~*~*~*~*~*~

Finally, they were about a foot apart, just looking at each other.  One daring the other to start something.

Ginny wanted to apologize, but at the same time she thought he deserved it.

Draco wanted to apologize, but at the same time he thought she deserved it.

Ginny came to a decision first.

"You're a git Draco Malfoy!"  And with that she shoved him into the water. SPLASH!!

She then smirked, "But that's all you are."

That's the closest he'll get to an apology from me.

Draco looked up at her and smirked.

Things are back to normal.

He stood up, and walked over to her, "And you Weaslette," he grabbed her arm quickly and pulled her into the water, "look like a drown rat."  He turned towards her, "And you're mum is still dumpy."  There was really no malice behind it though.

Ginny got up, "She's had seven kids Ferret."  She smiled, "And she's the best mum ever, dumpy or not."  She stuck her tongue out at him.

He rolled her eyes.

I can think of better things for that tongue to do.

NOOOOOO!!!!

Ginny started back towards the house, "There's extra ramen in the pot, try some, it's pretty good for instant."

Draco made a face.

"Oh for Merlin's sake Ferret, just eat it.  The stuff won't kill you…instantly."  She laughed and kept walking to the house.

Draco watched her as she walked away.

Did we just apologize to each other?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

*A week later*

Things were still going well.  There was still bickering, but both Ginny and Draco knew deep down that they both went over board, and silently promised themselves to never do that again.

It was now Saturday and Draco decided that they were going to eat out.  He said he was tired of her cooking for one week, but in all honesty, it was him still trying to apologize.

Weaslette doesn't need to know that though.

With a rather loud yawn Draco woke up and headed downstairs.

"Morning Weasle…"  She was no where in site, "Weaslette? Where are you?"

Could she actually be sleeping? Nah, it's one in the afternoon.

"Oi Ferret I'm out here!"  She yelled from the porch.

Draco walked outside, not caring he was in his boxers, it was a private beach. "Why are you out here?"  He smirked, "You're skin is going to turn an ugly color red, and you're bad enough looking at it is."

Ginny looked up at him from her comfy little porch chair and smirked back, "Better than being pasty, dead, white like you Ferret."  She then looked back down at what was in her hands, "If you must know though, I received a letter from Colin, and a book from Mione.  Mione said that the book would be great to read while sitting leisurely on the beach."

He rolled his eyes, "That Mudblood and her books."

"Ferret!"

"Oh, so sorry, Granger."

Ginny sighed, "Good enough I suppose. Anyway, I was wondering can I have people come and visit?"

Draco raised a brow, "Depends, who do you want to visit?" 

Ginny laughed, "Don't worry it's not my brother."

He glared at her, "Pothead?"

She rolled her eyes, "No, not Harry.  It's Colin."

"The Creevy kid with the camera?"

Ginny nodded, "Yep, him.  He said that he misses me and wants to make sure you're not man handling me or anything."  She laughed slightly and smiled.

Draco was stilling looking at her.

Nice smile.

NO!

Draco cleared his throat and looked over her head, "I suppose it would be alright."  He smirked, "Actually that works out well.  Zabini will be coming here in two weeks, so Creevy can come down then.  No need for a Gryff to hang out with to ex-Slytherins, so have you're little Lion pal come then to keep you entertained.  And out of my hair."

Ginny's eyes went wide, "Blaise Zabini?"

Draco nodded, "Know any others?"

Ginny's smile got even bigger, "Excellent! I'm going to owl Colin right this second.  Thanks so much Ferret!"  Before she knew what she was doing she hugged him, "Colin will be absolutely ecstatic!"

"Um Weaslette…?" He pointed towards the whole hugging thing.

Ginny pulled away as if burned and then turned red, "Oh…Sorry, hehe… I'm going to owl Colin now."  She quickly turned away and ran inside.

Once Ginny was out of site, Draco let a small smile fall upon his face.

"Cute…"

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

That's it for ten.  Hope it was alright.  I felt that I needed to get the "big fight" out of the way early so from here on it will be pretty much funny and cute stuff.  If you couldn't tell, yes, Blaise and Colin will be entering the fic.  Of course this fic will be D/G but there will be alittle B/C cause I think it's a fun couple to play with.  For those of you who super uber hate guy slash lemon stuff, don't worry the most I'd do is like kissing… Maybe heavy petting.  I don't know what guy/guy love making is like so I'm not even gonna try to write it.

Once again THANK YOU ALL YOU LOVELY REVIEWERS!!  Keep reading and giving me imput.

And lastly, I wanna give a shout to S McG.  You are a bastard for reading my fic when I told yah not to, but I suppose I forgive you… For now, bawahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!
