"What the hell do you think you are doing?" Draco roared as he crossed the room and cupped a petrified Ginny's face.
Ginny hadn't moved since she realised what Voldemort had been doing. Kissing her was the last thing she had ever suspected, and she was still shocked and frozen on the chair. It took her a while to come back to reality. When she did, she realised that she was crying, tears streaming silently down her cheeks.
"Ah, Draco," Voldemort said sadly, as Draco hadn't just hit him in the face.
"You're crazy," Draco responded, nursing his hand.
"Draco," Ginny responded, shocked.
"I would have been here early but Bella-" Draco started but was cut off when he flew across the room, his wand flying, and his body slamming against the stone wall on the other side of the room.
"Draco!" Ginny screamed, moving to get up, fear shooting through her body as she starred at Draco's fallen body.
Voldemort, held up a bony hand, while his other hand had his wand pointed in Draco's direction.
"Please sit down Ginevra."
The tone of his voice, and the way his eyes darkened, made Ginny's heart race. Shooting a paniced look in Draco's direction she lowered herself back down onto her chair.
"All this time I thought you knew," Voldemort's spoke, as he crossed the room.
Ginny's eyes stayed on Draco, she watched his fingers shift slightly and she let out a shallow breath.
"I let you into my past, I brought you into my future and you still remain in the dark." Voldemort's voice came from directly in front of her. Ginny turned her gaze away from Draco and jumped, when she saw Voldemort towering over her. He grabbed onto her wrist as he lowered his wand.
"Tell me you can't feel it?" He hissed into her ear.
"What are you talking about?" Ginny asked trying to yank her wrist out of Voldemort's grip.
"What blood runs in your veins?" Voldemort hissed tightening the grip on Ginny's wrist she could almost hear the bones snap.
"I don't know," Ginny responded franticly, disregarding her original plans to pretend to know more than she did.
"Morfin Gaunt!" Voldemort spat as he held on tighter, causing Ginny's wrist to crack. "I gave you everything you needed and you still haven't put the pieces together." Voldemort shrieked, his red eyes growing darker.
"Stop talking in riddles! I don't understand anything," Ginny wailed, as tears flowed freely down her face from the pain in her wrist.
Voldemort stared at her for a moment before he released her, causing Ginny to fall on the ground in a small heap.
"Morfin Gaunt, was the brother of my negligent mother," Voldemort began in a softer tone. "The last descendants of Salazar Slytherin," Voldemort said proudly. "Morfin it seemed was the stupider of the two, if even that was possible, or so I thought however now it appears he had more sense than his dimwitted sister," Voldemort said with a small laugh.
"How can you talk about your-"
"About my mother that way?" Voldemort said with a sadistic laugh. "Because she was a tramp that ran off with a bewitched muggle. Who in the end did nothing but taint my blood," Voldemort hissed starring off in a trance.
"I don't understand, what Morfin Gaunt has to do with me," Ginny whispered as she cradling her wrist.
Voldemort turned to Ginny and took in her small body sprawled across the floor, her face stained with tears, and her red hair sprawled around her like a pool of blood, before he spoke softly. For a moment, Ginny thought she saw his eyes soften but just as suddenly they returned to their hard an angry red.
"He's your father."
"Look her hand is moving!" Hermione squealed.
"I know," Luna replied calmly.
"Her eye lid fluttered did you see it!" Hermione cried as she hopped out of the chair.
"Yes, I saw," Luna replied calmly.
"She's waking up, she's waking up!" Hermione cried, as she leaned over the hospital bed.
"Well I'd be a bit scared to wake up actually," Luna said simply as she crossed her legs.
"What why?" Hermione turned to her friend in a panic.
"Well you're leaning so far over you'll frighten her into another coma," Luna said smiling up at Hermione.
"Oh," Hermione said as she dragged her chair away from the bed and sat down.
"Hermione," Ginny whispered in a hoarse voice, as she shifted uncomfortably in the bed.
"I think she's awake now," Luna said as she walked over to the bed.
Hermione rolled her eyes as she leaned over to look at Ginny.
"Ginny we were so worried," Hermione said as she took her friends small hand in hers.
"Where's Draco?" Ginny asked as she slowly sat up in bed and winched, as her stiff muscles moved.
Luna opened her mouth to reply but was cut off by Hermione.
"How much do you remember?" Hermione asked.
"Why what happened?" Ginny asked as her eyes went big and she looked around the room in a panic.
"The medi-witch told you not to alarm her if she woke up," Luna whispered to Hermione.
"Luna's right," Hermione said with a frown. "I'll tell you everything, but you have to stay calm okay?" Hermione said pleading with Ginny
Ginny frowned, the tone of Hermione's voice didn't sit right, and she knew Draco, he should have been here if she was in the hospital.
"When Blaise came to see me, we formed a plan, and infiltrated Malfoy Manor that night," Hermione said, trying to recap what Ginny didn't know as best as she chould. "The battle was-"Hermione searched for a word. "Well, we won," Hermione said with a small smile.
Hermione let this information sink in before she saw the small frown tugging at Ginny's lips before she continued.
"None of your family was harmed," Hermione said slowly watching Ginny's face.
"Draco and Blaise?" Ginny asked as he eyes widened.
"Neither was harmed in the battle," Hermione replied as she watched the tension in Ginny's face fade.
Hermione looked at Luna from the corner of eye, and Ginny's face paled as she spotted the movement.
"They're-" Luna began.
"Harry, Blaise and I went to find you, and you were hurt when a death eater decided to redecorate," Hermione said cutting Luna off and shooting her a look.
"Redecorate?" Ginny asked confused.
"He blasted through a wall," Luna smiled happy to help.
"Oh," Ginny said frowning. "I don't remember that."
"We didn't expect you to," Hermione replied nodded.
"How long have I been... in St Mungo's?" Ginny asked unsure.
"For three days," Luna answered.
Silence filled the small hospital room, and Ginny began trying to piece together what happened. She remembered Blaise leaving to meet Hermione, but she couldn't-
Suddenly everything hit her, Voldemort's thin dry lips, Draco lying on the floor in a heap and Voldemort's harsh words; He's your father.
As if Luna could sense the tidal wave of thoughts that cascaded over her, she immediately sat up, giving Ginny details of her injuries.
"They had to re-grow your crushed bones, and they weren't sure what you were hit with at first, you weren't responding. When we brought you in they saw the Dark Mark and it was a while before they would even start working on you, your mum and Draco went ballistic, then they're recognised who Draco was and-" Luna stopped when she saw the glare she was getting from Hermione and quickly walked over to her chair and sat down.
"And what?" Ginny asked throwing off the bed covers and throwing her legs over the bed.
"Ginny please you need to calm down," Hermione said holing up her hands.
"Luna, where is Draco?" Ginny asked, hopping out of bed and swatting Hermione's hands away.
"They took him to the Ministry," Luna said in a small voice.
"Luna stop! She can't deal with this right now," Hermione snapped.
"Why?" Ginny asked ignoring Hermione.
"Because he's a death eater," Luna shrugged.
"No, he didn't want to be. The Order knew that, he had no choice, where's Blaise?" Ginny asked panicking.
"At the Ministry with Lupin," Luna replied.
"Why what's going on," Ginny asked as her eyes began to water.
"Well the Order could vouch for Blaise, he turned and helped infiltrate Malfoy Manor. But-" Luna stopped and turned to look at Hermione.
"Okay so they're down at the Ministry clearing their names and giving them information, right?" Ginny begged as the tears began to fall freely.
"Ginny, Blaise and Lupin are down their trying to convince the ministry of Draco's innocence," Luna said as she stood from her chair and placed an affectionate hand on Ginny's arm.
"No! Why? They know Draco is innocent, why don't they ask Harry? They'll believe Harry, why don't they ask him?" Ginny asked hysterically.
"Harry is the one that brought Draco to the ministry, he told them he kidnapped you, and that he was Voldemort's right hand man," Luna said sadly.
"Why? Why would he do that?" Ginny cried as she fell to her knees.
"Maybe it's because Voldemort was residing at Malfoy Manor, and he is a Malfoy," Luna said disappointed.
"Because he's in love with you," Hermione whispered.
"Oh," Luna said starring off in space.
"No," Ginny said, unable to stop the laugh that slipped out. How ironic was it that 6 months ago, she had formed a plan with Draco Malfoy to get Harry to notice her, but ended up falling in love with Draco, only to now find out Harry liked her all along.
"No, he was always in love with you. Ron told him that if he was with you, he would never forgive him," Hermione said sadly.
"If he loves you, then it seems almost silly that you would date him," Luna pointed out, unaware of how rude she was being.
"It was err- well we most just," Hermione was once was at a loss for words as her face grew red. "You have to understand Ginny, he was trying so hard to get over you, you have no idea what it was like for him. He couldn't chose you, because your family was the closest to a family as he had ever gotten and he didn't want to give that up. And when you were with Draco- his worst enemy at Hogwarts Ginny…" Hermione said gently as she leaned down to where Ginny fell, sprawled on her knees.
"I can't handle this! Why didn't he just tell me I would have understood," Ginny whispered.
"Would you really Ginny? You could forgive Ron? Would you have forgiven Harry for choosing his best mate over you?" Hermione asked.
"I don't know okay!" Ginny snapped.
"So are you in love with Harry now?" Luna beamed down at Ginny
"No. I thought I did once, but I love Draco," Ginny responded automatically.
She paused, she loved Draco, she gave up everything to be with him, and she put her trust in his hands without even thinking about it. It seemed almost laughable that she would only realize it now, that the first time she would admit it would be in a hospital room, and not to Draco.
"I love him, I have to go to the Ministry to get him back," Ginny said standing up.
"Ginny, Draco isn't at the ministry," Luna said confused.
"But you said-then where is he?" Ginny asked.
"Draco is in Azkaban," Luna answered.
