Chapter Two

I Love Her

Blaise closed her eyes against the tears that threatened to flow when Ginny kissed her boyfriend. It hurt her so bad to watch the only woman she had ever loved with that cheating abusive lout.

Blaise had felt these feelings ever since she saw the tiny red head board the Hogwarts express in her first year. It nearly broke her heart when she found the little girl was in love with the great Harry Potter, for who could compete with him if he liked her? She nearly fell apart when the girl disappeared during the first year. Though she was jealous that Harry saved her, late that night, she had snuck into the Gryffindor dorms (through help of her invisibility cloak and being the Fat Lady's grand niece) and gave Harry a silent kiss as thanks. In the past year, Blaise hadn't kept her infatuation with the youngest Weasley quite a secret and she was pretty sure Draco knew she liked Ginny.

Blaise wiped the tears away and sighed. A hand grabbed her about her thin waist and the other came to cover her mouth as she was spun around. Ron Weasley faced her. He put a finger to his lips and took her hand. He quickly led her to the prefect's bathroom.

She sat warily on the stool and watched him as he sat opposite her.

"Do you love my sister?"

Her jaw dropped at the question. "Why would you think that?" She finally managed.

He smiled. "I'm a brother. It's my job to notice these things. So how do you feel about her?"

She sighed. An odd sensation filled her chest and she realized she was going to sing.

"Now I'm caught in a trap

No where to go no one to turn to

I do not want your sympathy,

I came out here 'cos I was told to.

Now the night is near,

And I can make believe she's here.

Sometimes I walk alone at night

When every body else is sleeping

I think of her and then I'm happy with

The company I'm keeping.

Hogwarts goes to bed

And I can live inside my head.

On my own,

Pretending she's beside me

All alone

I walk with her till morning

With out her, I feel her arms around me

I when I lose my way I close my eyes and

She has found me.

In the Rain,

Her hair shines like gold

And I fear,

She never can be told.

In the darkness

Her life shines like starlight

And all I see is her and me

Forever and forever,

And I know,

It's only in my mind.

That I'm talking to myself

And not to her.

And I know that she is blind!

Still I say, there's away for us.

I love her,

But it can never be.

All my dreams I will never see.

With out me, her world will go on turning!

The world is full of happiness that I have never known!

I love her

I love her

I love her

But only on my own."

"I knew it." Was the pleased reply of Draco Malfoy as he stepped out of the shadows. Ron, for some reason, didn't seem at all upset to see her cousin.

"Draco? What are you doing here?"

Draco grinned but Ron replied. "Your cousin blackmailed me into letting him sit in. He was concerned about you."

Blaise eyed the unlikely compadres. "I despise you, Draco."

"Course you do, cuz. Now, let's see if your lover likes you too..."
