b A/N: I just thought I'd let you know before you read, because you may get confused. I decided to switch points of view from Ginny, to Draco. Let me know what you think about this, if you like it or not. I'll probably use your reviews to help me in future chapters. Thanks! /b
Chapter Five:
At 7:00, Draco's alarm went off. He got up and changed into some athletic shorts and a tee shirt. Then he grabbed a bottle of water and headed out the door, on the way to the gym. During the five minutes it took him to walk there, he couldn't help but think about what happened the day before. Surprisingly, it didn't upset him as much as the thought. Of course, he was slightly embarrassed, but who wouldn't be? Draco found himself somewhat attracted to Ginny, even though he didn't want to be, he couldn't help it. His thought quickly left his mind when someone tapped him on the shoulder.
"Hey sexy, looking for me" a cool, breezy voice said.
"Hey, Rachel," Draco said. He turned around, and gave her a kiss on the cheek. Rachel, his girlfriend of about three months, smiled. She was gorgeous. Rachel was about 5'8, had bronze skin, and long, silky black hair. They walked into the gym to do their weekly workout together. An hour and a half later they went to a local diner for breakfast. They sat in a booth, and ordered. After the waitress brought them their coffee, Rachel started asking Draco questions about Ginny.
"So, who's the new chaser?"
"Oh, her name's Ginny. She went to Hogwarts, too, but she was a year younger than me."
Rachel had a sly look on her face, and a smile playing on her lips. "So…when can I meet her?"
Draco choked on his coffee. "What? You, you want to meet her?" he stuttered.
Rachel furried her eyebrows in a confused way. "Of course, why wouldn't I? I mean I've met all of your other teammates. Why? You I don't /I want me to meet her?"
Draco softened his voice, "Well no, it's not that. I just, I don't know. On Friday, before we go out, you can meet her. Okay?"
"Great," she said as she sipped on her orange juice.
Draco took a few more bites of his pancakes, and then looked at his watch.
"I gotta go, Rach," said Draco as he got up. "It's on me," he said, putting the money on the table. "See you Friday." He smiled and kissed her good bye.

(Friday)
Lauren and Ginny were sitting in the kitchen, playing a game of Wizard's Chess. Ginny was winning; she had picked up a thing or two from Ron in previous years. She was carefully plotting her next move when the doorbell rang.
"Got it," Draco called from his room. A few minutes later, Draco walked into the kitchen accompanied by Rachel.
"Hey Lauren."
"Hi, Rachel."
Draco turned to Ginny. "Ginny, this is Rachel, my girlfriend."
Ginny glanced at Draco, then at Rachel. "Hi, nice to meet you," she said as she put out her hand. She put a smile on; she was someone who could hide their emotions. Ginny didn't like Rachel, there was just something about her that was too perfect.
"Nice to meet you, too."
They shook hands, and surveyed each other, discreetly. Everyone stood there for a moment in an awkward silence. Draco, feeling the tension said, "Well, best be on our way. See you later." Rachel waved good-bye as Draco hurried her out the door.
While they were waiting for an elevator, they were both quiet. Once they got on, he couldn't stand the silence anymore. "Well?"
"Draco, you have to get a new roommate! I don't trust her. I don't want you hanging around each other," Rachel said, fuming.
"Sorry to break it to you, but I can't change Ginny living with me. You'll just have to deal with it."
Rachel knowing she wouldn't persuade Draco to do anything about it, made a silent vow to herself to keep a close eye on Ginny.
