Later That Night:

"So, you don't hate me now, do you?" Ginny asked timidly. She and Hermione were the only ones up in the dormitory.

"No." came the muffled response from the next bed.

Ginny sighed in relief, "Good, I was so worried you wouldn't agree with what I did."

Hermione rolled her eyes, grateful that Ginny couldn't see her, "I don't agree with what you are doing." She shuffled under her covers.

"But, Hermione. You have to understand. My honor as a Gryffindor was at stake, I couldn't let Sarah get the upper hand on me again. This will prove that I am better than she is." Ginny exclaimed, she and Sarah were always at odds with one another. Sarah naturally won, she had everything. A rich daddy, awesome clothes, a sharp tongue. Ginny on the other hand had a poor (but loving) family, second (sometimes third) hand clothing, and a sharp tongue when provoked. Sarah had always looked down on the youngest Weasley, although she seemed to have a hankering for Ron.

"Ginny, think about it," Hermione sat up in her bed, the moonlight fell across her from the narrow window illuminating her features, "This is Malfoy we're talking about. According to this bet, you will have to somehow turn him into a human. Something Sarah is going to use all of her talents for. That means lie, seduce, bewitch no pun intended. Gin, what would Ron say?"

Ginny gulped, she hadn't thought that far ahead, "I'm dead." she moaned.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ginny grabbed Sarah's arm and pulled her off to the side before breakfast that morning, "Listen," she whispered, afraid at who might overhear them, "You cannot tell anyone about this bet."

Sarah looked down at Ginny before smiling, "And why's that? Afraid the entire school will know how I beat you, once again I might add." Sarah began to walk off before Ginny stepped in front of her.

"Look, if my brother or Harry finds out, I am dead." Ginny looked up at the brunette desperately.

"Fine," Sarah said shaking off the red-head, "I won't tell if you don't," before Ginny opened her mouth again, Sarah added quickly, "Neither will anyone else. It's just between me, you, and the girls," Sarah tossed her silky brown hair over her shoulder before surveying Ginny, "By the way, love that skirt."

Ginny looked down at her skirt and noticed how short it was compared to everyone else's. She sighed and began to tug it down before someone whispered in her ear, "Come now, Weaslette. You're going to ruin my day if you pull that skirt down." Ginny looked up as Draco Malfoy walked around her. Ginny shivered as she watched him walk away.

"Oy, Gin," Ron called from the top of the stairs, "Was that ferret bothering you?"

"Huh?" Ginny asked still looking at Draco's receding back, "Uh, no. No, uh, he didn't say anything."

"Good," Ron grimaced as he and Harry reached the bottom step, "Because I'm not putting up with anyone messing with my baby sister."

Ginny rolled her eyes as Harry mouthed: 'What can you do?'. She smiled at him and surprisingly enough...he blushed. Harry Potter blushing? 'Nothing can surprise me now.' She thought to herself as they entered the Great Hall.

"Gin, over here," Lavender Brown called out, "We saved you a seat." Indeed there was a seat next to Lavender.

Ginny looked around uncomfortably, aware that all eyes were on her, "Uh, sure." She saw Hermione shake her head, 'Possibly disappointed in her?' Ginny wondered. Ginny sat down just as food appeared on the table. Conversation soon ensued everywhere around her. It all came as a blur to Ginny. All she could notice was that Draco was staring intensely at her. If she had looked at anyone else at the Slytherin table she would have noticed Blaise doing the same thing. Ginny was pulled out of her thoughts by Lavender's voice.

"Gin, asked you a question here," Lavender said annoyed as she waved a fork in front of Ginny's face.

"Sorry," Ginny muttered as she looked at Lavender, "What did you say?"

Lavender rolled her eyes and took a breath, "I asked you what you were doing the first weekend of Hogsmeade?"

Ginny looked at the brunette quizzically, "Isn't that, like, a month away?" Ginny began to pour syrup on her waffles.

"So? What does that matter. I already know what i'm going to be doing," Lavender smirked and glanced over at Ron, "Madame Puddyfoot's with Ronald Weasley."

Anna, a fourth year, leaned over the table and whispered: "You can't do that, Sarah likes Ron. Plus, you two broke up didn't you?"

Lavender looked over at the small girl, "Who asked you?" she snapped, Anna pulled back as if stung, "Besides, Sarah doesn't own Ron."

Ginny smothered a smile, "I think Ron already has plans." She glanced over at Hermione.

"What? With that walrus? No way, he'll just have to reschedule." Lavender said, and with that the conversation was over.
-------------------------------------------------

Draco finished his breakfast and began to walk out of the Great Hall, noticing that Ginny had done the same. He looked around before ducking into a corner, knowing Ginny would pass by that alcove. He pulled back the curtain to cover his hiding place.
---------------------------------------------------

Ginny had finally managed to get out of the grasp of Lavender and her soul sucking fiends. She passed through the doorway of the Great Hall and walked past an alcove, before she knew it she was being pulled into it by a strong pair of arms and into the body of Draco Malfoy.

"What are you doing?" She hissed, forgetting about the bet to win him. Her hair was disheveled and she was sure his hand had smeared her make-up.

"I just wanted to talk to you." He whispered intimately. It was amazing he knew how to be intimate growing up the way he did. He brushed his long white-blonde hair out of his face and looked at Ginny, pushing away the desire to sneer he managed a gentle smirk. 'I'll have to wash my hands after touching that thing.' He thought to himself.

Ginny looked into his gray eyes and wondered if he was serious, "What about?" she asked suspiciously.

'Damn, didn't think that far ahead,' "Uh...I noticed that you've been having trouble in Potions." Draco nearly stuttered it out. 'Malfoys do not stutter.' He reminded himself. After having that little problem beaten out of him as a child he was never going to let it happen again.

"What is it to you?" Ginny asked although she began to believe he seriously wanted to help her.

"Just thought you might need a little help. I help you, you help me." Draco nearly smiled at how gullible this girl was. He looked her up and down and couldn't help noticing that her top was certainly a little tighter this year and that skirt had shot up another two inches. Her hair had also gotten longer, nearly reaching her waist.

Ginny smirked, she knew there had to be a catch, "Help you with what?"

"We'll get to that later, meet me in the Room of Requirement at eight tonight. We'll talk more then."

To Be Continued...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, second chapter...what do you think? Sorry, but no sex yet. Just read it and review and i'll see what i can come up with in that area! This does have some things that happened in the sixth book (like ron and lavender) but it is mainly Ginny's fifth year and Draco and the others sixth. So please do not correct me. Also, i'm writing this story, if you get my drift.
