Chapter Six – Another Bad Day
In a heap laid a broken girl. No longer with the will to fight, Ginny had tried to protect her body from the dark spells that it had been subjected to. The damage done was a broken left arm, multiple bruises and cuts in various place, a twisted ankle, and a swollen eye.
Draco had been ruthless after he had figured out who the cowering girl had been. He had laughed when Ginny screamed herself hoarse, when she tried to get him to stop. Her pleads made him angrier. Draco had hurt Ginny more then anyone, even worse then his father Lucius, who had tortured her in way she thought impossible.
Ginny had cried herself to sleep the night before which earned a kick in the ribs from Draco. She had immediately become quiet. The power he had over her was amazing. One look had her flinching. Ginny had been broken in a mere day.
And now she laid on the floor of her captor's room. Draco had already gotten dressed and had left, telling her to have his room spotless when he came back. When that was she didn't know.
Mustering all of her strength Ginny crawled over to his bed and pulled herself up. She sat down for a minute, waiting for the dizziness to pass. When it finally did she slowly walked over to Draco's desk, where a long list of duties rested.
Make bed.
Clean shower and toilet.
Vacuum the carpet. Twice.
Do laundry.
Iron every outfit in my closet.
Prepare lunch.
Wash the windows. They need to sparkle!
Throwing down the list Ginny muttered angrily under her breath, "What does he think I am, his personal slave?"
Not wanting him to come back without anything done Ginny began with making the bed and washing the windows. Once the windows sparkled, Ginny looked throughout the room for a vacuum cleaner and iron. When the items she needed where found nowhere Ginny said, "I need an iron."
And out of thin air one appeared.
"I need an ironing board too." And again one appeared.
Not wanting to admit how cool that trick was Ginny began to iron every last outfit in Draco's walk in closet. After an hour of ironing she rehung them all and took a break.
Wishing she said a nice glass of water Ginny went to the sink and cupped her hands under the cold water. When her thirst was quenched Ginny did yet another task on the list. Getting down on sore knees Ginny scrubbed the toilet and bathtub. By the time she was done the smell of the cleaner had driven her mad and gave her a major headache.
Quickly leaving the room, Ginny vacuumed and completed the other tasks on her list. Went she finished she sat down and marveled at how well she had cleaned the room. Nothing was out of place. There was no way Draco would find something wrong.
Ginny heard footsteps coming to the room and not wanting to be found on the bed lowered herself onto the floor. Thinking it best to 'be asleep' Ginny curled in a ball and closed her eyes.
The door opened and Ginny slightly smiled. The gasp that he had taken showed his approval, or so she thought.
Ginny was shocked when her body was flung off the floor and shoved against a wall. Letting her hand crept up to her head, Ginny saw her fingers were bloody when she took them away.
Confused by Draco's rage Ginny looked him in the eyes.
"Is this what you have been doing all day? Sleeping?"
"What are you talking about?" Ginny asked, now seriously confused. "I worked all damn day, working my fingers to the bone."
"And this is all you completed." Draco asked, waving his hands around the room. Ginny gasped at how dirty the room was. It looked like she had done nothing. Hoping that she hadn't dreamed it all Ginny started to ramble about how she had worked.
"Draco, I swear I did everything!"
"How dare you lie to me!" Draco shouted, dropping Ginny.
"Do it all before I come back from my party. If it still isn't done you will have to be seriously punished."
"Party?"
"Birthday. I am turning 18. I don't want you to ruin my special day so have it done or else..."
With a slam of the door Draco was gone, leaving Ginny to angrily clean the room once again.
