Chapter Fifteen
"Make it stop… make it stop, oh please…" Ginny's fingers started to slip away from his hand.
Harry's eyes widened as Ginny started to fall.
"GINNY!" Harry pulled at Fawkes, willing the bird to go down, but the bird continued in its relentless flight west. "I'LL COME BACK FOR YOU!"
Ginny woke up sweating. She had been dreaming about that moment ever since Draco had asked to marry her. She guessed it was the guilt over forgetting Harry, but she tried not to think about it too much during the day.
"Nightmare again?" Draco asked, from beside her. She nodded, embarrassed. He put his arms around her and held her tightly. "Do you want to talk about it this time?" Ginny shook her head.
"I promise I won't laugh!" Draco smirked and she couldn't help laughing. His face sobered as he looked deeply into her eyes. "Don't you trust me Gin?" he said quietly. Ginny hesitated.
"Well it's really nothing… just stupid… but anyway I… I keep dreaming about my last moments with Harry, you know, before I was taken away…" Ginny gave a small cry as Draco let go of her abruptly and she fell back onto the bed.
"You're still dreaming about that idiot? After all you have when you're here?" he asked furiously.
"I didn't before… the dreams started ever since you asked me to marry you, and then they've just… because Harry asked me to marry him once… brought back memories, I—"
"You were thinking of him when I asked you to marry me?" Draco interrupted.
"No, of course not… afterwards… but Draco, what does it matter? He abandoned me… You're the one I love now," Ginny begged him to see sense, but he brushed her aside.
"So wait, what about when he comes running back to you, then what? You jump right back into his bed?"
"Do you think I'm some kind of slut?" Anger rose up in Ginny now as well. "Look, I can't exactly control my dreams can I?"
"The fact that you're dreaming about him means that you still care about him."
"They're nightmares Draco…"
"Yeah, sure, whatever."
"Don't you understand? It's hard for me too… I haven't had any contact with anyone… my family… my friends…"
"Harry," he added evilly. Ginny flinched.
"I love you," Ginny said, quietly. "Why is that so hard to believe?"
"Because those are the same words you said to Harry, just months ago."
"Draco, please…"
"You know what, Ginny, I don't have to listen to this. Goodbye," Draco strode out of her room, leaving Ginny crying into her pillow.
She never found out where he went. But when he came back, he was obviously drunk.
"Draco! I've been so worried about you!" she went towards him, concern etched in her face.
"Get out of my way, Weasley," he laughed, and she was trying to lead him back to his room when the doorbell rang.
"Stay right there," she told Draco. She opened the door. "Pansy! I'm afraid that Draco can't see you right now. He's not in the right state…" Draco pushed her aside.
"Pansy! Come in, darling," he said, swaying slightly on the spot. Pansy walked in, smiling smugly at a horrified Ginny.
"I've missed you, Draco…" she was whispering in his ear. Ginny turned to go, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Just a second Ginny," Draco said, and a slither of hope found its way into her heart… He'll tell me he loves me and that she has to go away…
"Yes?" she said, attempting a smile.
"Get us some more drinks," he said coldly, before turning back to Pansy. Ginny's head hurt from not obeying right away, but she couldn't do it. She stood, frozen to the spot as he fondled Pansy's breasts, and then started to move downwards. Ginny's head was really hurting now, but no worse than her heart. Finally, as the pain tore her apart inside and outside, she collapsed to the floor in a deep faint.
