Chapter Six: Memories to Last a Lifetime
"Tell me a secret." he whispered in her ear.
"A secret about what?" Ginny asked.
"I don't know, you tell me."
"I'm in love with a boy named Draco Malfoy."
"That wasn't a secret."
"Yes it was."
"I already knew that."
"I know you did." Ginny laughed. "But no one else does."
"Well then it wasn't a secret for me." Draco replied. "Tell me a real secret."
"I'm still scared of the dark."
"You are? How did I not know that?"
"You always leave a light on in the bathroom and then you leave the door cracked open so there is always light." Ginny replied shrugging.
"Oh."
"Your turn to tell me a secret." Ginny told him pulling away from him and leaning on the armrest so that she could face him. "I want to know a secret."
"That Valentines day in your first year, where you gave Potter that card, I was jealous."
"No you weren't. You made fun of me incessantly."
"Only because I was jealous and I wanted your attention."
"You hated me."
"Actually I thought you were cute, I just couldn't get pass the fact that you were a Weasley."
"Elitist."
"Damn straight."
PPPP
Ginny laughed, whether it was out of fear of being caught or pure joy she couldn't tell.
"At least now we know how long the potion lasts." Colin replied flying in the door and closing it behind him.
"It would have been nice to know that before my hair started changing back to red."
"Well at least Jonah didn't see."
"Can you imagine how angry Jill would have been if Jonah had known that we were following him."
"We wouldn't have been paid, that's for sure." Colin replied.
"It's only our first job, we are bound to get better, right?"
"Of course. Think about how well we are doing with just things we have taught ourselves." Colin told her. "And after I develop these pictures we will have enough evidence to finish our first job."
"Can you believe we pulled it off?" Ginny asked him. "We actually did it."
"It is hard to believe."
"Did I tell you that Mr. White called and wants us to follow around his wife. He believes she is having an affair with someone."
"Really?"
"Yeah." Ginny nodded. "And Julian Morgan also called."
"Wow, we are popular."
"I told you it would work."
"What would?"
"Opening a business."
"I didn't doubt you, remember I was supporting you the whole time."

Ginny sat in the room. She didn't want to be there but the ministry had summoned her and she didn't really have a choice. She stiffened when the door opened and then sighed when it was just Colin.
"Have you had to identify him yet?" Colin asked sitting beside her.
"No. They haven't called me yet." Ginny replied. "I've been here an hour. Why is it taking so long."
"It's the government." Colin replied shaking his head.
"I just wish they would hurry up." Ginny said as she laid her head on Colin's shoulder.
Colin kissed her on the forehead. "Think of it this way, you identify him and the he gets put in Azkaban and you will be safe."
"No, I identify him, he goes on trial, he gets off and he tries to kill me again." Ginny replied.
"It's all about positive thinking."
"I was, I'm positive that he will get off because that cold heartless bastard always gets off."
"Why was he stalking you?" Colin asked. "Did you ever find that out?"
"I don't know, to tell the truth." Ginny replied. She closed her eyes. "I think he thought I knew something and he wanted to know what it was."
Colin and Ginny sat there in silence while they waited. Ginny looked up when the door opened, once again stiffening up.
"What are you doing here?" Colin asked, his eyes narrowing.
"I was there also." Draco replied eyeing Colin suspiciously. "Therefore I am also an eye witness."
"Good for you." Ginny replied dryly. She closed her eyes again, her head still resting on Colin's shoulder.
"So, you're slumming it with Colin now?" Draco asked coldly as he looked at the two of them.
"Stop talking." Ginny replied, ignoring his insult. "Nobody wants to hear the whining of a rich, spoiled brat."
"Don't be jealous just because I have the girl and you don't." Colin shot at Draco.
"You can have my sloppy seconds." Draco shot back.
"Wasn't it Mariebeth that had my sloppy seconds?" Ginny snapped.
Draco sighed.
"That's what I thought." Ginny continued, her eyes still closed. "Now shut up."
Ginny continued to rest her head on Colin's shoulder as she waited to be called. Finally after waiting for what seemed like hours, but was actually probably only about ten more minutes someone entered the room.
"Ginevra Weasley, and Draco Malfoy."
Ginny stood up.
"Do you want me to come with you?" Colin asked standing up also.
"No, I'm fine." Ginny replied. "I'll be back in a few minutes."
PPPP
"Must I attend this dinner?" Draco asked as he looked in the mirror. He flattened his hair before turning to look upon a very angry looking Ginny.
"How many times must you ask that same question, over and over again?" Ginny demanded. "I don't think it will hurt you to eat a dinner with my family."
"Well, that shows how little you truly know about me." Draco replied.
Ginny rolled her eyes as her hands magically found their way onto her hips. "Excuse me?"
Draco laughed nervously. "I'm just jesting. I'm looking forward to having dinner with your family."
"You're such a liar." Ginny replied, a smile playing across her face. "But I suppose it's the thought that counts."
"Exactly." Draco nodded. "So, what do you think, robes, too nice?"
"You look fine." Ginny rolled her eyes. "I'm the one who should be nervous, after all, I'm bringing you to dinner."
"Dragging me, more like."
"Watch it."
"Kidding, kidding." Draco replied as he gently pushed her onto the bed, collapsing on top of her. "You know it would be more fun if we stayed here."
Ginny pushed him off of her. "You have put this dinner off long enough. We are going and that is final. My mum is already anxious that I am dating you. It would be nice if I could show them what a not horrible guy you are."
"Don't you mean wonderful."
"I mean what I said." Ginny replied. "I don't know if they will ever find you to be wonderful."
"Don't watch out for my feelings any."
"Please, you would care more if I said you were bad in bed."
Draco laughed. "You have me there."
"Come on, get up. Let's go." Ginny told him as she stood up and pulled him up. "We are going to be late."
PPPP
"Gin, wait up." Draco called as he hurried down the hall after her.
"No."
"Just let me talk to you. Please."
"What do you have to say?" Ginny demanded whirling around to face him. "Do you have an explanation for why you did what you did?"
"Gin."
"No. I don't want to see you ever again. If it weren't for the fact that your father was stalking me and you happened to show up and see him then I wouldn't have had to see you today. Leave me alone and don't talk to me. I don't want to hear what you have to say."
"Ginny-"
"No."
She continued to walk briskly walk down the hallway but stopped as Draco grabbed her arm. "Ginny, listen to me, please."
"I don't want to hear anything you have to say." Ginny replied coldly, shaking his hand off of her arm.
PPPP
Ginny sat mortified as she watched her brother and Draco shoot insults back and forth. Her mother had tried to stop the two of them, but when they got started, they couldn't stop. Ginny stood up, "Stop it now!"
Ron and Draco both turned to look at her.
"I am old enough to chose my friends, boyfriends and any other important person in my life." Ginny informed the two of them. "I am not an object to barter, trade, or argue about. Ron, you are my brother you have as much say as to who I spend my time with as I allow you to believe you have. And Draco, you need to learn to bite your tongue when it comes to dealing with Ron. I realize neither of you two like each other but if you both love me then you will try and get along. Please."
With that said Ginny looked at them before sitting down again.
"I'm sorry, did I hear right, he loves you?" Ron asked demanding.
Ginny rolled her eyes. "After all I said that is the only thing you can think of?"
"Yes, I love her. Does that bother you?" Draco asked sneering.
"Draco, don't bait him." Ginny warned.
"I didn't know you knew how to love." Ron shot back at Draco.
"Great." Ginny sighed. "I just fueled the fire more."
"Come one dear," her mother told her as she stood up, "We will just go to the living room and let them argue this out."
Ginny shook her head as she stood up, "Pathetic."
