Hey guys, thanks for the reviews, apologies for updates being slow, I work in films and have been on set for 14 hour days over the last week. I just wrote the entire rest of this story though in one long writing session so it's all ready to go. Please excuse any grammatical error's I'm trusting spell check on this one as checking it myself would mean not getting it out to you for another few days. Things really start to move quickly after this chapter, she does have the baby, pre warning it is graphic, if you want the smut then you get the repercussion's its part of life...unfortunately. Please keep that in mind as you read on and as ever Please,Please,Please review, I love your feed back.

Ginny's mouth fell as her eyes filled with pure, unadulterated horror. Blaise simply winced, she knew immediately this had not come as a shock to him. God, I mean she'd known just as well as the rest of the school, Malfoy's…reputation but this was a sight nothing could have prepared her for. Clearly Malfoy had actually roped in his behaviour whilst as school, who'd have known. A cold adrenaline spread through Ginny's small body as the realisation of what her best friend had married into seeped through her body, this was what Draco Malfoy was really capable of.

The hall was half lit in the early morning shadow, as they entered she heard the broken glass crunching under Blaise's heavy feet. Shattered glass covered the floor, swimming amongst a pool of amber liquid that smelt like a stale old bar on a Sunday morning. A dark bottle lay on its side and she watched the liquid still dripping from it, slowly. Her eyes followed the liquid to the edge, where it suddenly darkened, a crimson red mixing with the dark amber. She felt herself gag and tore her eyes away as she saw it. Blood seeped from the still body of a girl who looked no older than her or Hermione.

There were brutal slashes running through the small girl's body and she had to will herself not to run from the room and vomit. She saw Blaise grimace, a look of disgust but not shock flooded his features. His eyes suddenly shot to the other side of the room, "The drawing room" his breath hitched as he headed across the hall, avoiding the body he reached the doors in minutes. She looked to the door behind her and then to the place Blaise was heading to…she genuinely considered running, she could find Hermione, alert the authorities, take her back to the Burrow where she'd be safe. Her and Harry would help her raise the children, who knows even Ron might accept it one day with Draco out of the picture. She couldn't stop herself though, she felt like screaming at herself as she felt her body jerk forward and follow Blaise's carefully trodden path.

Theodore lay fast asleep on the chaise, he looked uncomfortable, one of his arms bent slightly behind his back as he breathed deeply. His floppy, curly brown hair fell across his strong jawline. Ginny couldn't believe she'd once thought him attractive. As her eyes roamed over him she saw that he was missing one of his shoes, she couldn't see it anywhere in the room. His shirt was untucked, his sleeve rolled up and strange puncture wounds lined his arm. On the floor next to him lay the body of a large snake. She looked to Blaise who realised immediately she had no idea what she was seeing, he shook his head and muttered in a low voice "..The slytherin party trick…snake fighting." He pointed to the snake's body "Must have been recent, they don't last more than a few hours. They're not real, they're conjured snakes." Ginny's eyes burned flame red as she hissed "..was that a conjured girl?" she wasn't waiting for an answer, she knew it wasn't but still Blaise shook his head.

In the corner of the room something stirred, before she could focus Blaise flew forward. By the time she saw what was happening he'd picked up a half asleep Draco from the floor in front of the fire and held him out in front of him at arm length. His pale grey eyes were red as he tried to rub them, Blaise's arms getting in the way. She could hear Blaise's heavy breathing "What were you thinking?" he sneered at him as Draco looked around the room, almost in disbelief. He gulped, all the colour drained from his face. Blaise had seen this look too many times to ignore it. Dropping his hands from Draco's cloak he lunged for the wastepaper bin by the desk and thrust it firmly into Draco's chest just in time for him to heave the entire contents of the night before into it. She couldn't help but smirk as she heard him wrench deeply, as disgusting as it was the idiot deserved to suffer.

The noise woke Theodore, who rolled onto his side opening his eyes with a smirk, his voice gravelly Blaise knew he'd have been in Draco's current situation hours ago, Theodore was always the first to go, Draco the last "…When a Malfoy chunders…you know it's been a good night." He smirked again, the words were his fathers and had been an infamous quote in their circles for generations. Malfoy's were renowned for their ability to hold liquor, especially Draco, given the past few months he'd had plenty of practise. "Weasley" he smirked nodding his head to her appalled expression as though nothing were wrong.

"You.." Blaise seethed over at Theodore, steaming over to him as Draco fell to his knee's still wrenching into the small plastic bin. "I told you to leave him alone, for god sake Theo after all the work he's done, after he saved all of us." He struck his arm firmly to Theo's face as the half asleep boy recoiled in shock and pain. Blaise pointed over at Draco on the floor, his voice a loud growl "He's a husband Theo….he's about to be a father for god sake" she heard Draco wretch again, bringing his arm to rest on the side of the bin and letting his head fall onto it.

Theo smirked "…which is exactly why he needed some fun. I haven't seen the old Draco in months." He laughed sitting up and reclining on the chaise "Calm down Blaise it was just a night of harmless fun." Ginny was about to jump in as she felt anger burning in her cheeks but Blaise beat her too it as he roared.

"Harmless?...There's the body of a dead muggle girl in Draco Malfoy's grand hall….do you not understand how horrifically dangerous this situation is?" he seethed as a serious expression spread over Theodore's face. "Oh yeah, I forgot about her, that was my bad…have you ever tried to apparate a muggle?" it was the smirk at the end of his question that sent Ginny over the edge. With a flash of her wand the boy sat frozen, she felt her cheeks burning with anger as she whispered quietly to Blaise "Get him out of here, before there's another body on the hall floor." He looked shocked at her before picking up the frozen Theodore and heading out into the hall. "I'll deal with this, you can…deal with him" he looked over at Draco who was now sat against the sofa staring vacantly into the fire.

The door shut quietly behind her as she felt the anger bubbling in her, she was about to start when she heard him, his regular calculated sneer back "There's nothing you can say Weasley, you can't make me feel any worse than I already do." She bit back her anger as she spoke in a low, calculated voice. "How could you? We thought you'd changed, you have a family." She watched as his cold grey eyes met hers with a fire burning in them "I've acquired a family, for now."

He looked sad for a moment "She'll leave me the moment she realises what I've done." His eyes filled with sorrow, "She'll take my children, she'll take everything and I won't be able to stop her." Ginny's cheeks burned again "You're messing everything up, you're sabotaging yourself" she gulped as she realised just how much like her mother she sounded when she shouted. Even Draco looked shocked at the little red heads words. His eyes darkened "You don't understand".

She couldn't stop it, the anger erupted from her like a volcano "No, I don't understand, I don't understand any of this. You and you're messed up little love games. I don't understand why you two can't just say… I'm in love with you…. Without playing with each other. You're in a constant competition to have the upper hand but you're both losing and hurt each other. I mean god, between the accelerator potions, surprise weddings, psychological manipulation and Veritaserum…." Her eyes burned red "..It should be illegal for you two to be in the same country let alone have children. You're both just playing with each other and everyone's getting hurt." She gasped for breath after her outburst. Draco's mouth fell, he starred at her…in utter silence… minutes passed until she became uncomfortable. "What?" she seethed at him but he didn't recoil, his eyes widened. "You know about….?" His voice was rasping in disbelief.

Ginny smirked "About you drugging her?..." Her eyes filled with fake pity "…You thought 'brightest witch of her age' missed that one? That's your problem Malfoy, you've totally underestimated her since the very first year." Suddenly it clicked, why she hadn't seen it before, oh god. Her features softened as she realised what Draco had been thinking, her voice came out soft. "You…you thought?" He nodded, his eyes still wide and full of sadness as his voice interrupted hers.

"I thought I'd lose them the moment she found out. I thought I'd built my family on a foundation of lies that would come crashing down at any moment." Ginny's eyes filled with deep, genuine pity as she watched his fill with panic.

"Oh god what have a done" he looked around the room as his head landed in his hands. He felt sick…how could he have been so blind. His mind was racing as he looked up at the small red head "She knew the entire time and she just let me" his heart fell as he watched Ginny nod softly.

"I think she wanted to feel wanted, I think if she's honest, she wanted to feel wanted by you."

His eyes flew to Ginny's locking with hers "I love her, I love her and my children more than I thought I could ever love anything." She couldn't help but feel sorry for him as he looked so genuinely sad, as though he'd finally managed to get things in order but it was already too late.

She couldn't believe the words that came from her mouth next, she knew he meant what he's said, she knew he'd had all the wrong information and she suddenly found herself wanting her friend to get her happily ever after. Her voice was barely a whisper "…If you go now, I'll help Blaise…We'll sort this out. I won't tell her how we found you." His eyes lit up at the prospect… she recognised that look, it was hope.

As quickly as she could blink he was gone.
