Not sure quite how well I did with the kissing scene but hopefully it was convincing enough!! Hope you enjoyed ;) I'm going to be a bit of a meany for a while but keep reading... all will work out eventually!

I wrote this last night before going to bed, meaning to post this morning (Oh and harrypotterchick4ever, where are you? I've missed your reviews) but you've beaten me to it and already reviewed... see I really do appreciate you all!!

It still looks like no alerts are working but I promise to keep updating regularly so hopefully when you check you won't be disappointed! (I have a few chapters written out in rough so should hopefully be able to update every day until the weekend.)

Neither of them had a chance to talk about what had happened although the kiss was definitely on both of their minds.

As Ginny got changed she thought about the moment she had shared with Draco, it took her breath away just thinking about it. She'd never been kissed like that before, although that was probably just because Draco was the most experienced man to ever kiss her – if rumours were true anyway. Half the school had gossiped about Draco Malfoy's wonderful kisses and how they planned on stealing one from him.

Had she known just how good they were she would probably have considered it herself, well – possibly not seeing as she had thought him a cold hearted murderous death eater…

But how am I meant to act around him now? She thought… He probably wasn't even slightly affected by it and here I am not able to stop thinking about it! He only did it to save our arses – stop getting so worked up about it… be normal; act as you have been, everything will be fine… Her brain was working overtime.

Draco couldn't help but give a small smile when he thought about Ginny's sweet lips, which he was doing constantly as he got ready… He'd had plenty of women in his time but he had never felt a connection like that; she seemed so innocent yet everything she had done felt so right, as if she knew exactly how to turn him on. The thought of tasting her again was driving him wild, he considered just walking to her room, grabbing her and kissing her senseless. He shook his head at such a thought. She only let you kiss her to save our arses. Just bide your time and see how she reacts. If she starts flirting then you know you can make a move. Be suave - don't get flustered…Play it cool.

They both left their respective rooms and bumped into each other on the stairs. "After you Red." Draco said smoothly. Ginny opened her mouth to say something, got flustered and practically ran down the stairs. Stop acting like a baby she muttered silently to herself, but just the sight of Draco made her mind go into a muddle and she didn't know what to say or how to act.

Remus was waiting for them in the hallway, smiling and humming to himself. "Draco, Ginny. You have perfect timing; I was just coming to let you know that dinner is prepared…" He led them into the dining room where a tantalising smell wafted up from the covered bowls on the table. Remus lent over and said quietly to the couple "Tonks cooked the potatoes… Just warning you." He gave Ginny a wink and seated himself at the head of the table. Tonks bustled in with a tray of glasses and a bottle of champagne.

"I know you're not really meant to have this Ginny but just don't tell your mum and we will all be fine." She said uncorking the bottle and pouring them all a glass.

Dinner was a slightly awkward affair, Ginny kept avoiding Draco's eye, worried that she would blush at a single look and Draco worried that he'd offended her by kissing her. Remus and Tonks seemed unaware, chatting away happily about how nice it was not to have to worry about Remus' monthly problems. Tonks was especially happy as she didn't have to lose her boyfriend for a 7 nights every month.

Ginny found it increasingly difficult to avoid Draco's gaze, when he asked her to pass him more potatoes she found her hands shaking and almost dropped the whole steaming hot bowl in his lap; it was only his seekers instincts that helped him catch the bowl before it did some serious damage to parts he'd rather keep safe. Tonks laughed, "Hey Ginny – I've only just managed to find someone that likes my style of cooking. Don't burn him or he might be put off."

Ginny mumbled something about the champagne going to her head but she knew that it was the thought of Draco's hand touching hers as she passed the bowl that had made her heart pound and her hands shake. She was glad when they had all finished, she made an excuse about being tired after such a long day and practically ran from the room.

She sat on her bed taking deep breaths. This is ridiculous, you're being worse than when you had a crush on Harry. She told herself. He doesn't even like you as more than a friend. She looked through the bags of presents Draco had bought for her and pulled out a beautiful gold night dress decorated with tiny sequins. Plus I've only known him for such a little time, I can't fancy him… I'm being silly. She heard footsteps walk up to her door, she held her breath wondering if it could be Draco but they soon moved away again…

Draco had stayed down with Remus and Tonks for a while; he felt it was only polite seeing as the dinner was in his honour. Remus had given him quite a few firewhiskeys and patted him on the back when he finally made his way up.

He walked up the stairs slowly, wondering why Ginny had behaved so strangely at dinner. She must feel awkward, he thought. Probably not very happy at the situation we ended up in because of my demand to go shopping. Bloody fool... Maybe she still thinks she has a thing for Potter, although she obviously needs a visit to St Mungo's if she'd choose him over me! He decided to see how she was the next day; he certainly didn't want to lose his newfound friendship with her over this, even if the thought of her luscious mouth was driving him wild. If she was still acting strange then he'd have to smooth things over so they could go back to the way they were…

He paused outside her door, wanting desperately to knock and find out if she was wearing any of the silky lingerie he had bought her. She had protested but he could see in her eyes that she loved all the items the shop assistant had shown her, especially the gold one. Draco thought about how well it would fit her curves...He shook his head, if he couldn't have her as more than a friend then he'd have to settle for that and not make any unwanted advances on her.

The next morning Draco woke up tired and grouchy. He'd sat up until late the night before thinking about the flame haired witch sleeping just a room away from him.

He was used to getting any woman he wanted without having to put any effort into it, but… he'd never been friends with a girl before. Or with anyone really, not the way he was with Ginny.

It was frustrating wanting something but knowing it might be at the possibility of losing something else.

Draco stood up, stretched and started getting ready for the day. He could beat this feeling. If he was gifted enough to shut his mind down so even the 'great' Voldemort couldn't pluck thoughts from his head then he was sure he could train himself to block out any lustful feelings he had towards one witch. Especially one that he'd spent years thinking he hated.

Once he was washed and dressed he decided to look for Ginny and let her know that he just wanted to be friends and she needn't worry about him jumping her in the middle of the night. Don't even think thoughts like that you fool, it's not helping!

He went to the kitchen thinking it the most likely place to find her but instead he walked in on Tonks. She was singing a song he'd never heard of very loudly and making yet another bizarre concoction which she offered to share with him. They chatted for a while and Draco appreciated her banter but really needed to straighten things out with Ginny.

He spent the rest of the morning wandering round the house looking for her, at one point he felt sure that he'd seen a flash of red hair but when he got to the place he thought he had seen her it was deserted.

During his travels he found a room stuffed full of old books which he was very tempted to stop and rummage through. No! I'll be here all day and I want to find that bloody witch. He thought. At first he had been worried about Ginny but now he was getting annoyed. He wasn't used to having to run around after someone and was confused and gradually getting more and more tetchy. I was the one that saved us from Death Eaters. What else was there to do? If I hadn't kissed her we would have been caught. I don't deserve to be ignored; I should be being thanked… What's wrong with my kissing anyway? Most girls swoon over me and beg me for more! I'm a great kisser, what's that girl's problem?

He strode through the halls of the house as if he owned them, indignant at the fact he was doubting his prowess because of one little witch. He threw back the door to the medical room, thinking he would call her with the dragon charm that was there.

Before he could do anything there came a loud pop followed by an even louder thump as a red haired body materialized from thin air and crumpled to the floor…
