Chapter 2: Thoughts
Ginny ran and found Harry and Ron by the back doors of the Great Hall.
"Gin where you?" Asked Harry. Ginny noticed how worried he sounded and suddenly felt really guilty.
"Yeah, we've been looking for you for ages!" exclaimed her brother.
"I was just taking a walk," she replied. 'Which wasn't a complete lie,' she thought.
Harry went up to her and put and arm around her neck and kissed her cheek, "Are you sure you're alright?"
Ginny smiled and replied, "Yes I am fine, just tired. Can we just go home?"
Harry sighed, then nodded and turned to Ron, "You mine if we leave early?"
"No, just take care of my sis mate."
"Alright, tell everyone we said goodnight and that, we'll try and keep in touch," said Harry.
Ron nodded and watched his best friend and sister walk back into the castle hand in hand.
Once home in their nice little house in Hogsmeade Ginny said, "I am going to take a bath and get ready for bed, okay?" She kissed his cheek and went to go upstairs, but she felt an arm on her wrist.
She turned around and Harry asked again. "Are you sure you're alright? I mean did anything happen when you wentout for a walk?"
Ginny froze and thought of something fast, 'just say you're emotionally drained, yeah that could work.' "Harry for the last time I am fine. I think I am just emotionally drained, you know, by going to the reunion and seeing everyone."
Harry looked at her for what seemed an eternity, "Okay, I'll be up there soon," she nodded, he kissed her lightly on the lips and instead of going up the stairs she Apparated straight to her bathroom.
She got her favorite scent of bubbles, lavender, and poured them into the running water and waited for the bubbles to rise. Ginny stripped her clothes and went into the warm water. Ginny tried to relax but all she can think of is Malfoy and the kissed they shared under the stars. "Oh for gods sake, get a hold of your self Gin," she said out loud.
After a few minutes of trying to relax, she couldn't, 'It's not like anything is going to happen between us. Why would he waste his time with a Weasley any ways?" She decided to go under the water to see if that will help, but it didn't.
After grabbing some shampoo and applying it to her hair she thought some more, 'I can't believe what I did. It wasn't fair for me or Malfoy. He knows I am with Harry and now every time I look at Harry I feel so guilty. But when I kissed Malfoy there was this amazing spark that I felt, and now when I kiss Harry I don't feel that spark anymore. If Harry and Ron didn't interrupt us I wonder how far we could've gone-No, no, no, bad Ginny! Harry would be heart broken if he found out and Ron would blow his top off.'
After finishing washing her hair she sighed and rubbed her temples. Ginny finally got out of the tub and wrapped a towel around her self. She went into their bedroom and found her wand on her nightstand and muttered a drying spell for her hair. After changing into her warm pajamas she went to their bed and went under the covers.
Awhile later Harry walked in and gave Ginny a kiss on the cheek and went into the bathroom. During his shower he thought, 'I feel like she's not telling me something.' He felt his muscles relax by the pressure of the water. Ten minutes later he went out with a towel wrapped around him self. Once he found his boxers he went into bed and moved closer to Ginny and put his arm around her waist and went to sleep.
Ginny still wasn't asleep and felt Harry's arm around her. She sighed and looked at the clock, it read 2:33 am, and so she finally closed her eyes.
Earlier that night…
Once Ginny left his side, he couldn't believe that just happened. At first he was shocked but he's Draco Malfoy after all and so he finally gave in to the kiss and felt something in that one moment he never felt before in kissing someone. He cursed just now under his breath because Pothead and Weasel interrupted them.
After just sitting by the fountain he decided to go back to the reunion. Draco searched the Great Hall and found Blaise and Luna and so he joined his friends
"And where have you been Draco?" Asked Luna with a smirk.
Blaise looked at Draco and said, "Yeah Drake, you haven't been snogging any one have you?"
Draco shook his head, "You know me too well Zabini, but who I snogged with is none of your business."
Luna gasped and Blaise said, "That's my Drake."
Luna slapped his arm, "Don't encourage him, Blaise. Did you at least know her name? Or anything about her and not just snogged her for the fun of it?"
Draco replied, "I don't kiss and tell."
"Awe you're know fun," replied his best friend.
Luna turned to her husband, "Honey it's getting late we should check on Abigail and my parents."
Blaise sighed and replied, "Alright. See you later Drake."
They shared a manly hug and Luna gave Draco a kiss on the cheek, "Tell Abigail Uncle Draco says hi."
Luna smiled, "Of course we will."
Draco watched his friends leave and looked around the Great Hall. Almost everyone had left and it was nearly 1:30 in the morning. He bid McGonagall a goodnight and went out of the castle doors.
As soon as he got to his mansion he went to his favorite arm chair by the fire, took out his wand and muttered, "Lacarma Inflammare," and the fire place was lit. He snapped his fingers and a house elf appeared, "Misty give me the biggest bottle of Firewhiskey I have right away."
"Y-yes s-sir, right away," stuttered the house elf and disappeared with a 'pop.'
A minute later Misty appeared with the Firewhiskey. Draco waved his hand and the elf disappeared.
Draco's rest of the night was spent in front of the fire, drinking his feelings away, and thinking about a certain redhead that won't leave his mind.
