Drabbles

2) FANTASY

She was sitting in a field of tall grass, handling a white daisy in her small hands. The autumn twilight warmed the scene in colors of bronze and orange, as she picked and dropped the white petals of another flower. The wind softly ruffled the cloth of her pale yellow sundress.

She looked up, brown eyes lighting up in excitement as she viewed a man striding across the empty field. The man smirked in amusement, coming to a stop at her feet.

"I thought you'd never come," the girl said, smiling slightly as she brushed the fallen pedals off her skirt.

"You know I couldn't keep myself awake," the man said, chiseled features cold yet relaxed.

"What?" the girl asked, gesturing for him to sit down.

"I couldn't keep myself away," he repeated, almost snarling. He sat down next to her. "Ginny…" he whispered, breathing hot air onto her neck.

"Mmmm, I don't want to ever leave this place," she replied, turning her face away from him, her red hair flickering into his face.

"Ginny," he whispered, taking her into his arms and roughly kissing her. He stopped, leaning back.

"No, not yet," Ginny moaned. "You can't leave yet, Draco…"

"I can't stop, it's like we're dreaming," Draco replied, taking her into his arms and passionately kissing her once again. He mussed up her dress, hands groping every inch of her body.

"Oh, please," Ginny begged, holding him closer and closer.

"GINNY! GINNY WEASLEY! GET UP RIGHT THIS INSTANT! GINNY! OF COURSE I WOULD COME TO WAKE YOU UP! GINNY! …GINNY! YOU HAVE TO KEEP YOURSELF AWAKE! EXAMS ARE TODAY! YES! RIGHT NOW! STOP DREAMING!" Hermione Granger's uptight voice interrupted her dreams.

Ginny begrudgingly opened her eyes. The covers were tangled all around her, the air was hot and sticky as the May heat started to creep in. "Hermione," she whined. "I was having the most fantastic lie-in."

"I do not care how well you're sleeping," Hermione snapped. "How can you be dreaming of gumdrops and sugarplums at a time like this. Not even two hours away from your first final examination!"

Ginny smirked. If only you knew, she thought whilst stretching.
