Diclaimer: Blah blah blah
Chapter 13
That night's dinner was just as festive as the last. With the new arrivals it was another celebration. Ginny could feel several pairs of eyes on her at different moments through out the meal but when she looked up it was only Phineas. She could have sworn some else had been watching her.
Draco sat quietly at the table as all the festivities went on around him. The seating arrangements had been changed this night. He was next to Phillipa and Feline who were flirting unabashedly with him but he was paying them no attention, his eyes were a few seats down across the table where Phineas sat with Ginny next to him. He was talking to her and every now and then he would whisper something in her ear. She would laugh and reply. It went on like this for the entire night.
Draco sat through the night moving through the phases but his entire being was focused on Ginny and Phineas, now he hadn't ever had a problem with Phineas usual he would come they would drink and get along fine. But this time was different.
Flashback
Draco had been with Blaise most of the day trying to take his friends mind off his hair. I didn't know my friends were this conceited. . . I am I this conceited?
Um, aren't you suppose to be helping Blaise?
But am I that conceited?
Draco your friend needs you.
So? Am I that conceited?
/sigh/ no Draco what ever would give you that idea?
Ok just checkin'
Draco got up from the window seat in the study. He and Blaise had been in there for the day looking through the books and talking about nothing in particular Draco had started a new conversation every time Blaise ran his fingers through his hair.
"Hey Dray, what's new with you and Gin?" Blaise said throwing down another book and moving over to the sliding Ladder.
Draco looked up from his own book as Blaise began to climb the ladder. He watched his friend as he looked over a shelf of old spell books, trying to select anything of interest.
Draco sighed, he couldn't not tell Blaise. "I kissed her."
Blaise looked down at him. "She let you?"
Draco smirked and looked his friend straight in the eye. "Twice."
Blaise made a face and nodded in approval, "Wow I knew she liked you but I didn't know she liked you that much." He began down the ladder.
Draco looked at him expecting him to explain his earlier statement when it didn't come he prompted it. "Huh?"
Blaise looked up, "What it's a compliment?"
Draco just looked at him.
"What? Look Ginny is really protective, so either she has let her guard down this year. . . or. . . she likes you and I'd go for the latter because. . . it's Ginny."
Draco sighed and closed his book. "That's going to make it all the worse when it doesn't work out."
Blaise watched his friend get up and cross the room towards the large bay windows. "What do you mean? You both like each other why wouldn't it work?"
Draco let out a breath. "Blaise you've been with me my whole life, you should know as well as I do nothing ever works out for me."
Blaise shook his head. "No I think it's different this time. Maybe it's because I'm on the outside looking in but from here this was meant to happen."
Draco looked out the window hardly hearing hie friend as he watched a midnight blue carriage with a silver 'V' and it's sides, make its way up the drive. "I hope your right about this."
When the carriage got to the door Draco watched the two occupants exit. Both had the same dark Black -blue hair as Adonis as they were from his side of the family. They looked at the house before entering. Draco turned back to Blaise.
"Phillipa and her brother are here." He said.
Blaise's head snapped up and he closed the book he had been skimming through. "Then why are we still in here? Let's go." He had suddenly become very eager.
"You must really hate your hair this way."
Blaise gave him a look from the door. "You would too if it were you."
Draco nodded lightly. "Too true."
They made their way to The foyer where a crowd had gathered to greet the newest arrivals. Blaise began to make his way through the crowd toward Gabrielle, Draco just leaned against the banister of the staircase and watched from a far.
His eyes drifted towards Ginny who was now standing near the front of the foyer while the crowd dissipated. She wasn't looking or doing anything in particular. Draco eased off of the step and began towards her when she looked the other way at something. Draco took notice of the fact that Phillipa's brother was still there staring at Ginny. Why was he still here? Draco stopped by the door to the dining room.
He watched as Phineas approached Ginny he was saying something to her and she had smiled. Then He had taken her hand and kissed it starting into her eyes as a wolf did to his prey. Draco stepped into the dining room. He didn't want to know what was going to happen.
End flashback.
Draco sat quietly at the table as the meal died down. As usual the tables occupants spilt themselves into old and young and the house elves took the extremely youthful to bed. He was still between Phillipa and Feline as the group discussed and assortment of topics Blaise joined in this conversation avidly as his hair was back to it's normal colour.
Draco watched Phineas noticing the little things that just looking at him you wouldn't notice but if you had been watching him as closely as Draco was you notice loads. Like the fact that he had snuck his arm around Ginny's shoulders and let it sink down around her waist in a matter of minutes. The fact that he kept on leaning over and whispering to her. What was so important and private that it had to be whispered.
As the night drug on Feline and Phillipa had given up for the night and gone to bed. Everyone slowly began making their own ways to bed for the night Draco still sat there. Watching. Soon enough Phineas leaned over and said something to Ginny who looked at him for a good while before nodding slightly. They got up and left.
Draco put down his drink, excused himself and left after them. He followed the sounds of there foot steps up the stairs towards the east wing of the house, towards the library. Draco came around another corner to find it empty. He walked down the hall and saw a door slightly ajar. Silently pushing it open further he looked in.
Phineas was standing in front of Ginny across the room. His face extremely close to hers. He watched as Phineas lowered his head to hers.
Draco closed the door to his room. He couldn't believe her. Blaise was wrong. I guess she just decided to let her guard this year. Draco sat on the edge of his bed running his hands through his hair.
(What cute little nervous habit)
Ginny felt his lips touch hers. She had known it was coming yet couldn't stop it she had still been caught off guard. She pushed him away from her. Phineas looked confused.
"What the hell was that?"
"Phineas I don't like you like that."
"You didn't that way this summer."
"Well summer was four months ago."
Ginny hugged herself rubbing her shoulders. Phineas sighed, "Who is he?"
"Who is who?" Ginny said looking at him out of the corner of her eye.
"The guy who stole your heart from me."
Ginny shook her head. "No one you know."
"Does that mean I can't get his?"
Ginny looked at him. "Exactly."
Phineas laughed slightly, "Okay I can deal with that," he looked up and walked back over to Ginny. "But if he hurts you, I'll find him and he won't like it."
Ginny smiled. "Deal." Phineas hugged her and offered to walk her back to her room. She declined and made her way to her room.
Ginny was lying in bed staring at the ceiling. She had been sleeping peacefully when he eyes just opened she didn't know why but at the moment she was awake and it wasn't going away. She turned on her side looking around the room. There was the door that led to her suite room, one that led to her bathroom, one to her wardrobe, another to the hallway.
That was the one she was looking at when she heard something outside. Ginny pulled the large eiderdown off of her and got out of bed. As she walked passed her chair she pulled her blue silk night robe off of the back and walked over to the door. She pressed her ear against the wood listening for another sound. It came muffled through the solid oak. Ginny opened the door and stepped on to the landing.
"Draco?" she said quietly.
Draco looked at her from his door which he was closing behind him. He looked her up and down before walking off. Ginny was confused. She pulled the robe around her and followed him she wanted to know what was wrong.
Draco knew she was still behind him, he wanted her to leave him alone. He didn't want to shout at her and he knew that if he tried to talk to her right now, he would. He turned corners and jumped stairs but still she followed. Soon he reached one of the out side doors on the ground floor. He stepped outside.
The cool night air hit his face and he began his trek around the grounds. The door opened a few steps out onto the grounds and he stopped. Draco turned around to face Ginny.
"What do you want?"
Ginny shuffled nervously from one foot to the other under his cold glare. "Spit it out."
"Did I do something?" she asked finally.
Draco laughed mirthfully. "Of course not Weasel."
"Weasel?"
"Yes weasel. Now go away." He turned around.
Ginny opened her mouth to say something but changed her mind. "You know what? Fuck you. . . I don't what I did or what you think I did, but I don't have time to chase you Draco. . . scratch that Malfoy."
She turned and left.
Ginny didn't talk to him the next day or the day after that. She stayed far from him actually spending most of her time with either Gabrielle Blaise or, to Draco's annoyance, Phineas.
Draco lay in his bed fully clothed. He should really be heading down stairs, I mean it would be rude to miss your own birthday party. He sighed and rolled over. His bedroom door opened. He heard fabric brushing the ground before a weight descended on his bed. Gabrielle threw herself over him looking in his face.
"So what do you want for your birthday?"
Draco sighed and looked at her meaningfully.
"I tried to give you her but from what I've heard you blew her off."
He rolled taking Gabrielle with him, he was now lying on top of her.
"I did not blow her off."
"Your right. You straight up bite her head off."
"Fine."
"Draco I've the story from two angles... what's yours?"
"She was kissing Phineas."
"I know."
He looked at her.
"I know but really Phineas kissed her and she pushed him away."
"No she didn't, I saw them."
"You saw like the first five seconds and then left didn't you?"
"So?"
"Draco she pushed him away, ask Phinny your self he doesn't deny it, according to him. She claimed she was taken, of course he's lying because Ginny says all she said was that she couldn't but Phinny put two and two together... but I stray from the point."
"Quite a bit."
"The point is, for the hundredth time, she likes you, you dolt"
Draco looked at her.
"I'm sure this time, all you have to do is apologize.'
"I don't apologize."
Gabrielle smiled sweetly, "But you will this time. . . or I'll hurt you."
some one cleared their throat by the door. "With that said, Dray would you please refrain from mounting my fiancee." Blaise said from his post leaning against the door frame. Gabrielle and Draco laughed and got off the bed.
Ginny was in the ballroom of the Blackfire Mansion House, dancing with Phineas when Draco entered with Blaise and Gabrielle. The hall broke out into applause at the entrance of the birthday boy.
Draco made his rounds greeting people he had never seen before as well as some he had. He had reached Phineas and Ginny. Phineas took his hand wishing him Happy birthday, Ginny sunk back before she simply walked off.
The night went on as such with Ginny avoiding Draco's presence soon Gabrielle got sick of it. She grabbed hold of Ginny.
"Hey," she said brightly. "I need to talk to you. . . outside."
"Ok?" Ginny said. "Let's go."
"I'm coming go and I'll catch up, threw those doors." Gabrielle pointed through the large french windows at the far end of the room. Ginny nodded and began towards them.
The cold air was a welcome relief to the hot atmosphere inside. Most of the adults had gone to the study for their own soiree and left the teens to their own devices. Big mistake in Ginny's opinion. She had never seen so many drunk or drugged teens in her whole life.
The doors opened behind her and then closed just as suddenly.
"Ginny?"
She clenched her teeth before she let out an exasperated breath. "What?"
"I. . . I'm. . ." Draco was tripping over his words he had never apologized before, he'd never tripped over his words before either. "I know."
"Know what?"
"That you kissed Phineas."
Ginny studied him, "Is that what all this was about?"
He nodded.
"Draco why didn't you just ask me about it?"
"I didn't know I could."
"Well now you do."
He nodded. "I'll keep that in mind."
"You do that." she tried to walk passed him back into the party but he stopped her.
"I'm not done."
She stepped back and looked at him. "Continue"
"Ginny, I'm sorry, it's just that my mind gets I little clouded when it comes to you."
"Clouded?"
"Yeah, I look at you and I can't think straight, just about you and the we started talking and getting to know each other and that was great. Then we kissed and that. . . that was great to, but then I saw you kissing Phineas and I just went blank"
Ginny looked down. "I know the feeling."
Draco looked at her. "I'm going to tell you something it probably won't make sense now but listen," he took a breath Ginny was looking at him listening intently. "Nothing ever goes right in my life, everything I have ever wanted has been taken from me. I like you Ginny I don't know why because if there was one thing that was constant in my life it was the hatred of your family but proving my earlier point even that was fucked up." she smiled. "Yeah it's funny I know, anyway, what I'm saying is, I probably won't see you again after this year and I don't want to hurt you, so we have two choices, we can go our separate ways now and then neither of us will have lost anything or I can spend the rest of this school year giving you the most mind blowing orgasms you will ever experience in your life."
His forehead was now leaning against her as she looked up at him into his mercury eyes.
"I guess. . . this is going to be the best year of school I have ever had." She kissed him.
There you go they are together. More to come later. Again if you had a question about the origins of Phineas refer to Chappie one.
