Ginny awoke with the sun shining softly through on opening in the dark curtains. She looked to her side and Draco lay there, still asleep. He looked so innocent now; so naive. She stroked his soft platinum hair, so rich in it's feel.
She grazed her hands over his cheek, which made him stir. She disregarded that and continued on her way to learn this new-seeming Malfoy. Soon, her gaze met his, for he opened his eyes when her hands wrapped around him again.
"How long have you been awake?" She softly asked into his ear.
"Long enough." He smiled, and squeezed her tight in his arms; Draco winced.
"What?" Ginny asked somewhat worried.
"My arm is asleep."
Ginny chuckled and sat up. She hit his arm lightly, "Is that better?" She asked playfully.
"Yes." Draco pushed her down so she was now laying.
"Oh no you don't!" Ginny pinned him down. "Do not push me down!" Ginny said seriously. A smile grew on her face, but she wouldn't budge.
"Okay, you can move now..."Draco playfully protested.
She was just about to move aside when the door opened, revealing a tall, pale Lucius Malfoy standing sternly.
"Not to interrupt you," He drawled, "but I need to speak with you, Draco. Meet me in the study in 5 minutes."
"Okay Father."
With that, Lucius left. Draco slid from under Ginny, and swiftly slid a shirt on. He started walking out the door when he remembered something. He walked over to Ginny and gave her a soft kiss.
"I'll be right back." he said sweetly. Then he disappeared. Ginny's head was in a spin, and she brought the covers over her and squealed with delight. Draco had changed so much these past few months. He might actually love her. No. That was silliness to think of. But...it would still be nice.
She lay in bed for about a half and hour when he returned, a stern face shadowed his tone.
"What's wrong?" Ginny sat up and he sat down by her.
"Nothing...just tired." Draco yawned/
"Well, what did he say?" Ginny embraced him, wrapping her arms around his torso.
"He just...gave me a lecture, that's all."
"I see...Well, what can I do to wake you up, then?" she roughly spoke in his ear.
"U m..." Draco muttered into his hand.
"Let's play...wizard chess!" Ginny eyed the chess table across the room and smiled.
"How about we go eat breakfast"
"I am so hungry it's not even funny!" Ginny hurried out the door, with Draco slowly tagging along. They would eat breakfast alone, for Malfoy's parents seemed to disappear somewhere in the castle.
"Eww!"Ginny cried, "I don't like eggs!" she made a nauseous face, and shoved her plate far away from her.
"You had eggs the other day..."
"They are gross! I'm not hungry anymore." Draco simply chuckled. "Ooh, I want watermelon dipped in peanut butter!"
Draco almost spit out his food. This could be the first moment he realized, truly realized that Ginny was pregnant. The cravings, the bitchiness, and other stuff he would so look forward to.
