Who Opened the Dragon's Heart
Chapter 22
"Come on, Gin," Colin spoke from beside Ginny. "You don't want to be late, do you?"
"Colin," Gin replied, "look around you. How many students are still in here eating?"
"A lot," Colin answered.
"Exactly, which means how many are at the Quidditch field?" Ginny asked.
"Barely any."
"Exactly!" Ginny stated, proving her point. "So let me finish my damn eggs!"
"I thought you wanted good seats," Colin said, his shoulder slumped in defeat.
"We can still get good seats, after I finish eating." Ginny replied as she returned to the food on her plate. Everyone around the Great Hall was excitedly anticipating the upcoming Quidditch match between Slytherin and Ravenclaw. The game between the two houses was sure to be thrilling, because of how much Ravenclaw had improved since last year, supposedly Cho Chang had been holding them back. All of the houses, except Slytherin, hoped that Ravenclaw would wipe the Slytherin team.
"Are you two ready to go, yet?" Luna Lovegood's voice called out from behind Ginny.
"Nice hat, Luna," Colin spoke.
"Oh, thanks," Luna replied. Ginny glanced behind her to discover an eagle resting on Luna's head. "You guys can see the serpent right?" Luna asked as she pointed to the serpent dangling from the eagle's mouth.
"Creative," Ginny said as she turned back to her eggs.
"So are we leaving?" Luna asked.
"Not yet," Colin replied. "Gin wants to finish her eggs."
"Oh, all right," Luna spoke, she sat down on the other side of Ginny. "It's supposed to be a really good match; Terry Boot has become a really good seeker. Besides, anybody can catch the snitch before Malfoy."
"But it doesn't necessarily matter if Terry can catch it before Malfoy," Colin argued. "If Slytherin scores more points than Ravenclaw there's a possibility of Ravenclaw still losing."
"Are you suggesting that Ravenclaw is going to lose?" Luna replied, horribly insulted at Colin's comment.
"No," Colin remarked. "I'm just saying that even if Terry is better than Malfoy there's still a chance of losing."
"Don't forget that Malfoy hasn't been able to practice with his team that much this year. Slytherin can't be solid without him being at every practice," Luna pointed out. "It's hard to have a successful practice with no captain or seeker there."
"So you admit that even if Ravenclaw wins it's not because you're better but because the Slytherin's haven't had much practice?" Colin asked. "You're not very nice to your House Team."
"That's not what I'm saying," Luna replied.
"Merlin!" Ginny screamed. "We'll head to the damn field, all right! Just shut up!"
"Well gosh, Gin," Colin remarked after her outburst, "no need to get snippy at us."
"Yeah, Gin," Luna agreed. "We're just discussing the game."
"I don't care," Ginny replied as she rose from the table. "Let's just get to the field." In a huff Ginny headed down the aisle and out of the Great Hall, Colin and Luna scurrying after her.
Scooby Dooby Doo, Where are You?
We got some work to do now.
"Cor!" Ginny exclaimed from her seat between Colin and Luna. "It's freezing out here!"
"Want me to warm you up, Gin?" Colin asked as he wrapped his arm around her shoulder.
"Aw, thanks Col, you're a great friend," Ginny replied.
"Why can't you warm me up, Colin?" Luna joked from the other side of Ginny.
"Well one," Colin remarked, "my arm isn't long enough. And two, you're not nearly as sexy as Gin is."
"Aren't you nice," Luna sarcastically spoke back.
"You must be blind as a bat, Creevey," a voice called out in front of the group. The three friends turned their heads to the person who spoke to discover Malfoy hovering on his broom in front of them.
"Why am I blind, Malfoy?" Colin asked.
"You think a nasty little Weasel is sexy," Draco spat out, glaring at Ginny. Uh oh, Ginny thought as she slumped in her seat. "Course you're probably just saying that to get a good fuck out of her, aren't you Creevey?" Without waiting for a reply Draco zoomed off on his broom to rebuke his teammates.
"I can't believe he would say that," Colin spoke giving Ginny's shoulders a squeeze.
"He's Malfoy," Ginny answered trying to control her burning face, "of course he'd say something. Hopefully he gets a bludger in the face during this game."
"You said it!" Luna piped up.
Scooby Dooby Doo, Where are You?
We need some help from you now.
"Well that was a disappointing game," Ginny spoke as the three rose from their seats and headed back to the school.
"What are you talking about? I got some great shots from this game," Colin replied, referring to the camera hanging from his neck.
"Yeah, but Malfoy didn't get clobbered, did he?" Ginny pointed out.
"Aww, cheer up Gin," Colin comforted giving her shoulder another squeeze.
"Yeah, Gin," Luna agreed as she pulled off her hat. "At least your house team didn't disappoint you," she huffed. "I just don't understand what went wrong. We've been solid all season, and now...Stupid Terry Boot!"
"Anyone could have made that mistake," Colin spoke.
"No, not anyone could have made that mistake. A Head Girl badge does not look like a snitch."
"If the sun reflected on the metal it might," Colin suggested.
"Oh please, Terry just wanted to grab at Hermione's chest without Harry killing him."
"He did hold onto the badge a little longer then necessary," Gin pointed out. "If he's not careful he still might have Harry coming after him."
"Yeah, well, while Terry was groping Hermione's dirty pillows and getting a hard on, Malfoy was busy catching the real snitch."
Ginny glanced back at the stadium. Malfoy had really done some superior flying today, if he flew like that every time Slytherin would actually have a good team. "Oh my gosh!" Ginny exclaimed, causing Luna and Colin to stop suddenly.
"What's wrong, Gin?" Colin asked, concerned that something was wrong with Ginny.
"I forgot something at the stadium," Ginny answered. "I better go get it before someone steals it." Ginny started to turn back.
"We'll come with you," Luna suggested.
"No, it's all right. You two go ahead into the school," Ginny said. "I'll be real quick."
"Fine," Colin replied. "Hurry up. It's chilly out here. I don't want you to catch cold."
"I will," Ginny answered as she turned back towards the stadium. Real clever lie there Gin, Ginny spoke to herself. But what is it that you forgot? "Excuse me," Ginny spoke as bumped into the students heading back to the warmth of the castle, "pardon me."
"Watch where you're going!" someone spat as Ginny brushed past them. Finally Ginny reached the field and began to search for the blonde boy in Slytherin gear. Spotting him in the field gathering equipment she headed for the steps that led to the field.
"I'm sorry Draco. I didn't ask him too," Ginny practiced as she walked towards her target. "Colin's just a friend. There's nothing between us but friendship." Ginny hurried her pace to reach Draco sooner. "Draco!" Ginny called out. She watched as Draco began to turn towards her, only he stopped before he could face her.
"Drakie!!" a female voice screeched out. Ginny stared as Pansy ran towards Draco and leaped into his arms. Ginny stopped walking as Pansy straddled Draco and began to kiss him furiously. Ginny slowly started backing up as the couple fell to the ground with Draco on top of Pansy and returning her kisses with just as much power. And Ginny turned and ran as she saw Pansy's clothing being removed from her body by the same fingers that had teased Ginny's own body not even 24 hours ago. Tears welled up in her eyes as her mind brought the image back again and again. Sobs choked out of her as she ran back to the school, not bothering to apologize to the students that she had collided with.
"Gin!" A voice called out as Ginny kept running. "Ginny!" The voice screamed. Ginny finally stopped running when a hand was placed on her shoulder. "Ginny?" Colin spoke as he turned her toward him. "Oh my God, Gin! What's wrong? What happened?" Colin exclaimed when he saw her tear streaked face. Slowly he placed his arm around her waist. "No, don't tell me, we're going up to the tower." Colin quickly guided Ginny's shaken body to the safety of the Gryffindor tower. As they entered the warmth of the common room Colin led her up the boy dormitory steps. When they entered the room that Colin shared with some other 6th years he placed her in his bed and wrapped the covers around her shivering body. Ginny watched as Colin straightened up his dormitory. After a few minutes Colin headed back to his bed and sat down beside Ginny. "What happened Ginny?" Colin gently asked as Ginny's shivering eased.
"Nothing, Colin," Ginny whispered.
"You're lying to me, Gin," Colin spoke hushly. "Why? Tell me what happened."
"It was just Malfoy," Ginny replied. "I stupidly listened to his comments."
"What happened?"
"Well, I finally reached the seats and I grabbed my Potions notes, stupid me I took them to a Quidditch match. As I was leaving, Malfoy came upon me and began insulting me, like usual. And some of them just struck home. I should have left as soon as he appeared but I thought he needed to talk about our project," Ginny explained. It was amazing how the lies flew out of her mouth so easily. But it hurt to lie to her best friend this way.
"What did he say?" Colin asked.
"The usual things," Ginny spat out. "How my family is poor and dirty, that I'm stupid, ugly, head over heels for Harry and how it must hurt that he'd rather fuck a mudblood than me, and that I'm a whore who'll spread my legs for anyone and anything."
"He said that you were a whore?" Colin questioned. "Has he taken a look at his girlfriend?"
"I guess it doesn't matter if the whore is spreading her legs for him," Ginny laughed. Colin joined in the laughing and together they laughed for minutes on end until suddenly Ginny wasn't laughing any more but sobbing heavily.
Come on Scooby Doo, I see you
Pretending you got a sliver
"Colin?" Ginny called out into the darkness. "Colin?" She whispered as she rose from the bed. Glancing around the room she noticed a plate of food on the bedside table, beside the plate was also her diary. "Colin must have gone down to the common room after bringing this up," Ginny decided.
Earlier Ginny had cried on Colin's shoulder until no more tears could fall, unable to bear the thought of being near Draco Ginny had asked Colin if he would bring her some supper and then ask a girl from her dormitory to bring her penmanship book. Ginny set the plate in front of her and her diary by her side. Ginny smiled as she noticed that Colin had picked out her favorites from the table. After finishing her wonderful meal Ginny opened her diary and began to write.
Fidella,
So much has happened since last I wrote to you. Feelings inside me have changed so dramatically, and in just the last 24 hours too. Last night was an amazing night. I felt things that I have never ever felt before. God I sound like such a loser, but it's true! I never imagined a guy could touch a girl and make her feel that alive and...dare I say it? Sensual. It was amazing. But last night wasn't all physical, we actually had a serious conversation albeit a short one, but I learned a lot of what Draco was feeling.
But all that was ruined earlier today, all because my best friend put his arm around me. Colin is my best friend in the world and I don't think Draco understands that. He doesn't understand that closeness that Colin and I share. It's normal for Colin and I to put our arms around each other. I have no feelings for Colin that could lead past friendship. But I have the feeling that my relationship with Draco can go no further, it feels like we've been completely severed from each other. I do not think the damage is repairable. After the quidditch match today I was desperate to see Draco. I had wanted to smooth things over with him, and to congratulate him on a great match. As I was approaching Draco his girlfriend, yes girlfriend, came running up to him. The things that I saw caused me great pain indeed. I can only hope that it wasn't Draco that I saw, but I know that it was. And yet he had sworn that he didn't like Pansy. I can only hope that I can continue working alongside Draco to get our Potions project done, others I will have to tell Snape that I can't continue. I hope to write more soon, Fidella. You shall remain my closest confidant. Adieu.
Ginny placed the book and plate back on the table as a knock sounded on the door. "Gin?" Colin's voice came through the door.
"You can come in, Colin," Ginny answered.
"You feeling better?" Colin asked after he had closed the door.
"Yeah, but I'm still a little tired," she replied. "Maybe I should go back to my dormitory."
"Nah," Colin spoke, "you're fine here. The fellas are all bunkin' with some other guys."
"So we're having our own private slumber party?" Ginny asked with a smile.
"Yup," he answered. "Just you and me." Colin headed for the bed adjacent to Ginny's.
"What are you doing?" Ginny questioned.
"Going to bed," Colin answered.
"At slumber parties we sleep in the same bed," Ginny stated. "Now get over here."
"All right," Colin replied. "As long as you're sure."
"Definitely sure," Ginny spoke as Colin climbed into bed beside her. "Were there very many people down in the common room when you left?" Ginny asked as Colin extinguished the light.
"Barely any. I think the 7th years had snuck out into Hogsmeade," Colin told.
"Even Hermione?" Ginny asked.
"Yup," Colin replied. Silence settled in between them for many moments. Breaking the uncomfortable silence Colin suggested, "Would it help if you maybe slept in my arms?"
Ginny turned her face towards Colin, although she couldn't see him. "I think it might," she spoke. The two shimmied closer together until Ginny was settled comfortably in Colin's arms.
"Goodnight Virginia Weasley," Colin whispered.
"Goodnight Colin Creevey," Ginny whispered back.
But you're not fooling me,
'cause I can see,
the way you shake and shiver
Ginny and Colin awoke the next morning to the sound of yelling and pounding on the dormitory door. "VIRGINIA JACQUELINE WEASLEY!!" the voice screamed.
"Oh shit," Ginny whispered. "Ron..."
"Open!" Ron paused to breathe. "This damn door! NOW!" Muffled voices could be heard from the other side. "NO! I will NOT calm down!" Ron screamed. "My sister is in there!" Ron paused in yelling as if someone was talking with him. "Well why didn't you suggest that before?!" Ron demanded. "ALOHAMORA!" Suddenly the door burst open as Ron sped into the room. As soon as Ron spotted Ginny laying in bed he raced to its side. "What the bloody hell do you think you're doing?" Ron questioned.
"Well I was sleeping, peacefully, until you woke me up!" Ginny spat out at Ron, not paying attention the faces peering in from the doorway.
"I don't care if you were sleeping or not!" Ron yelled. "Just answer me this. Are you wearing clothes?"
"Yes!" Ginny answered.
"Good!" Ron replied as he reached from Ginny's arm and yanked her out of bed. "If I catch you in bed with any other guys I will hex both you and him!" Ron turned to glare at Colin. "Creevey! If you so much as look at my sister you'll wish you were never born!" Ron turned back to Ginny. "Let's go, Virginia!" Ron roughly pulled Ginny out of Colin's dormitory through the crowd of spectators and to the girls' dormitory steps. "Now you are to go up those stairs and shower, get dressed, go downstairs and eat," Ron commanded. "Do anything that you want, so long as you're not around any guys at all. Period."
"Well Ron," Ginny spat. "I hate to break it to ya, but I'm breaking your commandment right now."
Ron's face reddened in fury. "UPSTAIRS!" He roared. "NOW!"
"Yes, FATHER!" Ginny screamed as she ascended the steps.
You know we got a mystery to solve
So Scooby Doo be ready for your act
Don't hold back!
Finally, some peace and quiet, Ginny thought to herself as she collapsed into a chair in the back corner of the library. All day Ginny had heard bits of the rumors flying around the school. All of them involving Ginny and Colin, in some Ginny and Colin had snuck off of Hogwarts grounds, in others Ginny and Colin had done hot and heavy stuff in front of all the Gryffindors in the common room, and in most of them Ginny and Colin had done the nasty, no less then 20 times. In guys' eyes Ginny had become their one way ticket to sex, in girls' eyes Ginny had become the biggest slut in school. Ginny had searched all over the castle for a quiet place, but none could be found. Finally she had found the back corner of the library; maybe here Ginny could finally "practice" her penmanship.
As soon as Ginny had opened up her diary a hand slammed it shut. Great, Ginny thought, this is going to be fun.
"What the fuck is up with this bullshit I hear?" Draco demanded.
"What bullshit?" Ginny asked, boldly meeting Draco's raging eyes.
"This bullshit that I hear about you spreading your legs for camera boy!" Draco spat out.
Ginny glanced around the library; thankfully it was empty of students. "Jesus Christ, Draco! Why don't you say that a little louder!" Ginny shouted.
"Don't you dare hush me up, Weasley!" Draco growled.
"Why not?" Ginny asked. "I should if I want to."
"I don't give a fuck if you want to or not!" Draco yelled. "You're going to explain this bullshit to me."
"Why should I?" Ginny asked. "I have no reason to tell you anything."
"Fuck you don't," Draco bit out.
"What's it matter if I spread my legs for Colin, Malfoy?" Ginny demanded. "What's it matter if I spread my legs for every fucking guy in this school?!" She screamed. Ginny's rage for boiling now, the hate and hurt were coming together and breaking Ginny's control. "Your slut does it for you, so why can't I for other guys? Huh?" Ginny barked. "Why can't I be every other guy in this school's Pansy? It's not fair that you get a good fuck and all the other guys don't! Share the wealth, Malfoy!" Ginny glared back at Draco as she finished, slowly she turned and stalked out of the library leaving Draco alone in the library, still steaming from their screams at each other.
And Scooby Doo if you come through you're going to have yourself a Scooby Snack!
That's a fact!
"Wow," Draco spat out, "you handled that great, Malfoy! Nothing better then pissing her off and not finding out anything at all." Draco sat down at the table. "What the fuck is that?" Draco asked aloud when he saw the book in front of him. Draco opened the dingy looking book and read what was written. "December 1st. I don't know why I've always been drawn to diaries, but ever since I could write I've always wanted to write down my thoughts...I've found the perfect name for you diary...Fidella." Draco looked up as he finished that sentence. "Wait a minute, Fidella....wasn't that the name I had given to Ginny?" Draco looked down at the book in front of him, realizing that this must be Ginny's diary. And if this was Ginny's diary then she must have written in this quite a few times and some of those times must have mentioned him. Forgetting all sense of privacy Draco continued to read Ginny's intimate writings, all the way up to her last entry which caused Draco to be even more furious, only this time at himself. As Draco headed back to his room, book in hand, he cursed himself for being so stupid.
A/N: Wow, finally this chapter is finished. The first 2 pages were typed right after the last chapter was finished and have been just sitting here, doing nothing. Until now! I apologize profusely for such a long delay, hopefully it was worth it. I'm not going to lie to you though, it's unlikely the chapters will come faster then they are right now. Unless I hit some absolutely great idea and can type it up in the small amount of time that I have the chapters will be a month apart, maybe more :(. ::sigh:: all righty, i'll finish up tomorrow. I'm really tired and it's really late.
All righty, fully rested, you gotta love built in 2 hour delays. Let's see, I've apologized, I've warned you...what's next? Ah yes, my thank you's. First, my thank you to all those that read my other story. I hope you all enjoyed it, especially since I doubt something like that will happen in this story since Colin and Ginny just keep getting closer and closer. :) Just kidding.
