Chapter Six

Good Night My Angel

Ginny couldn't sleep. The sedatives had worn off and after her day, she was too troubled to get to sleep again. She sat up and looked around, giving up on sleep. Her brother was in the bed beside hers. Across the room lay Blaise in her bed. Ginny silently slid from her bed and crept to the sleeping Blaise.

Blaise had saved her from a fate worse than death.

"Goodnight my angel

Time to close your eyes" She sang softly, though Blaise was asleep.

"And save these questions for another day" She pushed aside the questions that flooded her mind and rested her chin on her arms.

"I think I know what you've been asking me

I think I know what I've been trying to say

I know I never want to leave you.

I want you to know

Wherever you may go,

No matter where you are

I never will be far away."

Ginny brushed back Blaise's dark hair from her eyes.

"Goodnight my angel

Now it's time to sleep." Ginny stifled a yawn.

"And still so many things I want to say.

I'll sing for you forever

And sail upon an emerald bay

And like a boat upon the ocean

I'm rocking you to sleep.

The water's dark

And deep inside this ancient heart

Will always be a part of me

Goodnight my angel

Now it's time to dream

And dream how wonderful your life will be

Some day our child may cry

And if you sing this lullaby

Then in your heart

There will always be a part of me."

Ginny silently leaned over and kissed Blaise's fore head.

"I think I love you Blaise Zabini."
