Chapter 1: Asking Out is Hard to Do

Ginny's POV

"Ginny! You've got mail!" Ron yelled from down the stairs.

"Who from?" I yelled back.

"Um...some guy named...um...Drake?" Ron yelled back with a confused tone.

I had been waiting for this letter all summer! It was from Draco, my secret friend. We had been friends since my 5th year and now I was in my 6th year and 16. Draco said that he was going to send me an owl with a question.Oh how I hoped it was the question I had been waiting for! I was hoping that he ask me to date him. Oh, I had fancied him ever since my4th year. His blue eyes that I could get lost in and his blonde hair that I ever so wished to run my fingers through. He had grown to from the first tome she had ever seen him. He was now about 6'. He was absolutly gorgous!

I rushed down the stairs andsnatched the letter fromRon. He looked at me in a suprised look, butby the time he tried to say somehtingI was already rushing up the stairs back up to my room.

Dear Ginny,

I havealways liked you alot and I have missed you all summer. I was wondering if you would meet me in front of Flourish and Blotstommorow. I guess this is me trying to ask you out. I mean if you don't want to go out with me I understand but I wanted to...um...take you out to dinner. If this is fine I'll meet you there at 6. Owl me your answer a.s.a.p.!

Draco

I wrote a quick little message telling him how much I missed him and then wrote "See you tommorow". I tied the letter onto Pigwidegon (who Inow owned becauseRon bought a new owl)and sent him off.I couldn't wait till tommorow.

Draco's POV

I took my letter to Ginny and tied it onto my eagle owl's leg. I couldn't wait for her response although I had just sent the owl. I decided that while I was waiting for the reply I mite as well go and put some cloths on over my checkered green boxers. I showered and then put on a white under shirt, a blue button-up shirt (unbuttoned), and jeans. By the time I was done my owl had returned, but with out an anwser. I asumed someone else had got it and gave Ginny the letter. A few minutes later Ron's barn owl came to me with a message that wasclearly not from Ginny.

Malfoy! Stayaway from my sister!

It was from Ron who had obviously read the letter. Ron had always been protective of who his sister dated andRon was probaly having a cow because Ginny was probably going to go out with me, The SlytherinHottie. Then I heard the most annoying sound ever! It was Gunny'sowl Pigwdegon. I untiedth letter and scanned down the letter for the answer, but didnt see it. TheI noticed something put under her name.

Ginny

p.s. See you tommorow!

Draco was so excited and he couldn't wait for it to be tommorow.
