Happy Reading!
Sunlight poured through the enchanted ceiling of the Great Hall. It flooded the vestibule with the brilliant morning light. The students of Hogwarts chatted happily among themselves as they ate breakfast.
Ginny Weasley looked down wearily at a bit of sausage that was left on her plate. She cautiously took a bite at the burnt tinged end of it and chewed it slowly. There were visible shadows under her eyes because of sleepless nights. She didn't even bother to brush her hair that morning when Olivia Blade woke her up at the usual time.
Stupid Malfoy, stupid git…oh what would I give if I can curse him in his sleep…
Yes, the red headed Gryffindor had another dream about the sex god of Hogwarts last night. It's really not her fault. No matter how hard she tries, the blonde boy always manages to slip into her dreams, even if it would be ridiculous to have him there. Then she would wake up and try to stay awake. Some how, her plan would fail and off to dream land she goes. And that routine would start again and again until the glorious morning comes.
"Gin, are you alright?" Olivia asked her from across the table. Ginny growled at her and she quickly shut her mouth tightly together.
"Erm…Ginny you really don't look that well…" Hermione said kindly. Ginny heaved a sigh and dropped her head unto the table not bothering to answer the worried brunnett.
"Something's wrong with your sister Ron?" Harry asked quietly.
"I 'onno" Ron said through a stuffed face and peered at Ginny.
There was a pause of silence as the Gyffindor table waited for Ginny to get up. When nothing happened, Neville did a brave deed by poking the red head gently on the shoulder.
"Um…I think she's asleep." Neville said softly to the others.
The dungeon was as cold as ever. Ginny couldn't take a nap even if she wanted to. The class was as silent as usual. The potions master was walking around the classroom checking every body's polyjuice potions and was lingering a particularly long time at Harry, Ron, and Hermione's desks trying to pick out a flaw from their potions but could not.
Ginny eyes wondered across the classroom as she waited for her potion to bubble. Her eyes stationed itself over Draco Malfoy's empty desk. Relief washed over her as she noticed this. There was no way for him to whisper threats or instructions at her when no one was looking…at least for now.
How odd for him to miss a class…
On second thought, the whole school has been a bit awkward lately.
Ginny remember how the studentswere whispering and giggling whenever she walked into the corridors that day.
It doesn't matter. Ginny thought as she caught a glimpse of Pansy Parkinson and one of her evil comrades whispering loudly underneath their breath. When she looked at them, they immediately stopped and burst into giggles.
Ginny chose to ignore them but Snape didn't.
"Is there something funny Miss Parkinson? Perhaps you should share it with the whole class?" Snape said dangerously.
"As a matter of fact I do professor." Pansy said in a snotty tone and gave Ginny the most evil glance she'd ever seem. "From what I heard as a prophecy made by our very own Professor Trelawney, Ginny Weasley is going marry none other than that Draco Malfoy and have 12 kids!"
Ginny stared back at Pansy in shocked horror as the pug faced girl stared back her with a triumphant smile. The whole class was in silence.
A prophecy? Then…that means… it's going to come true…
Fear and disgust filled up in Ginny's head making her extremely dizzy. Her whole face turned brilliant red as she noticed all the eyes on her.
As if the situation couldn't get worse, Snape turned towards Ginny with a sneer and pointed out that 12 kids proved Ginny to be a true Weasley and congratulated her.
Ginny wished noting but to rip Pansy's face off. She noticed how all the Gryffindors stared at her in shock. How Hermione's face turned white, Harry's face turned green and Ron just look like he was puking buckets of slugs again.
Somebody shoot me…
When the class was over, Ginnywalked away as fast as she could, ignoring Ron's calls, with one mission in her mind: to kill Malfoy so the prophecy wouldn't come true.
Where is he… damn that bastard.
A first year boy sneaked his way behind Ginny as she stomped away angrily. He slowly reached up and gave a tug at Ginny's auburn locks, then zoomed away at the speed of light shouting, "I DID IT! I PULLED GINNY WEASLEY'S HAIR AND I SURVIVED! YOU OWE ME TEN GALLIONS DAVID HAWKMAN!"
The whole corridor filled itself with laughter but stopped when they saw the anger flare up in Ginny eyes.
So they use me as an entertainment huh? I'll show him…
With a loud angry cry, she tore off after the small first year, forgetting all about Draco Malfoy, and ignoring the wide stares of the students in the corridors.
"Come here you little prat! Wait 'till I get my hand on you!" Ginny threatened after him.
"AHHHHHHH! Go away! Some body help me!" fear and regret was in the boy's eyes as he ran for his life.
She was gaining up on him. Pulling her wand out, she was prepared to give him the magical wedgie of a lifetime. The frightened first year was backed into a corner. Ginny steadied her wand and marked her position.
"So you thought if would be funny uh? Guess you won't be there to take you ten gallions."
"Nooooo! Help me someone!"
"Too bad, you should have thought about the consequences before hand, but I guess you're just not bright enough." Ginny smirked evilly. It's time to take her anger out. "Bruelsi-"
"Acio Wand!" A voice shouted and Ginny's wand flew out of her hand. She turned angrily to see who it was that interrupted her and found herself face to face with none other than-
"Draco Malfoy."
Draco Malfoy was not having a good day. After that stupid prediction made by Professor Trelawney he has been stared at anywhere he goes. This caused him a terrible headache. He was also sure that Weasley would find out sooner or later and he would be in great trouble for it.
He had skipped potions to go to the hospital wing for some pain relief droughts, but it was also an excuse to avoid the wrath of the Weasley girl. Draco knew he wouldn't be able to avoid her much longer considering the fact that they practically have the same schedule.
Would it be that bad to marry me?
He quickly shook that thought away. It would be a bless if anyone would get to marry him, of course. But it's certainly not going to be Weasley.
Trelawney's full of crap…
So after he was sure it was lunchtime, he made his way to the Great Hall quietly. But to his rotten luck, he witnessed a screaming Gary Peterson running through an empty corridor with a flushed Ginny Weasley chasing behind him while shouting out a string of very colorful words.
Draco didn't want to get between them now. But he had to, Peterson was in his house and he could see that he might bea future for the Slytherin. Though he can be a dunce sometimes, Draco couldn't let him die in the hands of a Gryffindor.
And also the sight of Ginny's pink face and flaming hair just insist on him to get closer to her.
So, he took her wand.
"Draco Malfoy."
Just the sound of her calling his name brought secret urges inside him.
"Weasley, as a upper classman, you should know better than to threaten first years." He said with a smirk as he skillfully twirled Ginny's wand in his fingers. Then he turned towards the first year and said coldly, "Go Peterson, I'll deal with you later."
Ginny watched as the little boy stalked, eyeing her worriedly. She growled at him and he turned and quickly sprinted away. Ginny turned back to Malfoy.
"Give me my wand back." She said slowly, a bit too calm for the situation at hand.
I guess she's cooled down, I better get away while I can.
So he smirked and threw the wand back at Ginny who caught it like an experienced chaser would. He turned to walk away but a heavy weight fell on his back and he crashed unto the floor.
"What the hell do you think you are doing Weasley!" Draco cried angrily as he rolled over only to find Ginny sitting on his stomach with her wand pointed at his throat.
Damnit! Should have known this was coming,
"One move Malfoy, and you will find yourself unable to produce any heir for the rest of you life." Ginny said through gritted teeth. He instantly stopped moving.
"Do you have any idea how much trouble I can get you in?" Draco said irately, though he was beginning to find this whole circumstance amusing.
"I don't care. I just want to kill you." Ginny said and tapped her wand at the tip of Draco's Adam's apple.
So she knows.
"Ohk, Weasley, but don't you think we are in an odd position?" Draco waved over them to point out the obvious. "What would dear old bro say when he sees this? Hmm?" Draco said slyly and smirked.
"Why do you make life so complicated?" Ginny asked him. Draco was caught off guard but was about to reply anyways when Ginny cut him off. "I can't sleep, I barely have any appetite, and you see this?" Ginny said as she waved a homework parchment that had a big, red 'D' on it in his face. "That is a D Malfoy! A 'D'! I DONT GET 'D's!"
There was a minute of silence as Malfoy stared at Ginny in surprise, and she huffed slowly to calm herself down. Then a slygrin crawled up Draco's face and he raised a shapely eyebrow at the angry Gryffindor.
"So I'm the reason why you can't sleep at night?"
Ginny's bright hazel eyes widened with disbelief. She slowly got up from him and backed away cautiously as if he was some sort of a poisonous snake. When she reached a distance, she turned and sprinted away as fast as the first year, or perhaps even faster.
Draco sat up, and watched Ginny disappear behind a corner with a satisfied grin playing at his lips.
So I am the reason.
