Virgin Darkness: Chapter Two

Chapter Two: Cozy


It's not that some people have willpower and some don't. It's that some people are ready to change and others are not.

Throwing her keys into her key bowl, Ginny stumbled into her apartment, flicked the lights on and made her way down the hall to her kitchen. Flicking the jug on, she went in search of a mug. She hadn't exactly had that much time for cleaning lately, she had been a little busy - okay, she had been extremely busy. Keeping a job and working for the Order hadn't left her much time for everything else in her life.

She had just settled down on the couch in her living room when there was a knock at the door. Looking at the clock, her eyebrows knitted together. It was late, she had gone back to the office that afternoon to get a bit more work done, and had ended up staying extremely late.

"What the hell would come at this hour, it better not be blody Charlie," she muttered, getting up. Opening the door, her mouth fell open. Regaining herself, she lifted her head, a scowl on her face.

"What the hell are you doing here?" she asked, still slightly shocked.

"Didn't they tell you?" Draco asked, leaning against the door frame, calmly.

"Obviously not," Ginny replied, now becoming more confused than shocked. Draco grinned, he was obviously enjoying the fact that he knew more about why he was here than she did. Ginny hated that, in an extreme. "Well?" Ginny urged impatiently after he hadn't said anything.

The grin grew. "Well, considering our apparent relationship, Dumbledore feels it would be better for us to look 'cozy'."

"What do you mean 'cozy'?" Ginny asked, though she had the worst of suspicions.

"Well, you know, 'cozy'."

"Wait a minute, you mean... You're going to stay here? Here? With me?" Draco nodded. "Has that man gone completely psycho?" Ginny raged, still not letting Draco in.

"That was my first reaction as well," Draco admitted, still waiting for her to let him in. Ginny suddenly realised this.

"Oh, yeah. I guess you wanna come in," Ginny moved aside, regrettably. "Wait, don't know need like... stuff?"

Draco pulled two miniature-sized suitcases out his pocket. Ginny rolled her eyes. No-one ever did anything the old fashioned way anymore.

"So... do I like get a tour?" he asked.

Ginny sighed, "Fine."


Sorry to end it there, but I'm a bit busy at the moment, and I didn't want to leave everyone with just the first chapter. So this tiny little second chapter has been added. Next one will me longer, I promise.

Until then...
