Chapter 17: The media

The Monday after that eventful Friday night in Spain came and Draco went back to work much to his oblige. Dragon has been really busy without him, especially the one in Hogsmeade. The employees have been preparing for the grand reopening that's only two weeks away. Draco apologized to his employees for his absence. He told them it was a family emergency, but the real reason was that his girlfriend is pregnant with his twins and she needs him and that's why Draco missed so much was because he wanted to be with Ginny and Ginny is also at work right now. His employees didn't know about him and Ginny being together or of Ginny's condition for that matter. Draco told Ginny that she should tell her boss of her condition but Ginny said no because they will find out on their own in due time. All weekend Draco has been having this weird feeling that Ginny isn't telling him something, but he has a feeling that he will find out with whatever it is that is bothering her.

Everything looks great in Draco's opinion. He had to admit that the employees did excellent without his help. The walls are repainted silver with a glittery look, so at night it looks like they are under the stars, there's a menu on every table and silver ware. The only thing left for Draco to do is too higher some witches so they can be hostesses like he saw at the restaurants in muggle London.

"Hey Mark!" Draco called.

"Yeah?" he replied at went towards his boss.

"Put up these signs," Draco said while handing him fliers with a moving picture of the restaurant of what it looks like at night with the restaurant's name. It read; 'Looking for some nice ladies with a nice smile, a flexible working schedule, and can do wand less magic.'

"Where should I put them?" Mark asked looking up at Draco.

"Put up two at the front windows, and anywhere and everywhere around Hogsmeade."

Mark nodded and went out the door. Draco groaned, sat down on the nearest chair and rubbed his eyes. He looked at the clock and it read 2:30 (in the afternoon), 'ugh screw this I am going home I've been here since six in the morning,' he thought and got up. He told his employees to go home for the day. When he went out of the new and improved Dragon he saw Mark already half way down the street. Draco smiled and thought, 'he's my best employee.' He caught up with Mark and said, "Alright that's enough for today. You can go home."

Draco grabbed the fliers from him and Mark said, "Really are you sure?"

"Yeah I already sent everyone home like ten minutes ago. Great work today."

"Thanks, alright then, see ya!" he exclaimed and disaperated.

Draco sighed and couldn't wait to get home to Ginny.

During that entire ordeal…

When Ginny woke up she hated the thought of going back to work and dealing with her boss Gary or dealing with crazy teenagers that simply didn't make her day. Once out of the shower she dried her self off and went to her closet. She decided on a black skirt with a white blouse and a cloak just in case. It is fall after all. She put on her make up checked her self one last time and disaperated to work.

She went to the telephone booth stated her name and finally reached her office.

The day for Ginny was long and tiring. She had to deal with at least ten teenagers and they were giving her weird looks but she ignored them and thought, 'teens these days don't have respect,' she also had to deal with this elderly couple because there apparition license expired and they wanted to renew it.

When Ginny got back to her office it was already fifteen minutes to 2:30 and she hasn't even had her lunch yet. When she thought about her day so far she couldn't help at the thought of the people at the Ministry giving her weird looks and thought, 'they don't know about my condition so they?'

A co-worker with her, named Allison came up to her, "Well hello Miss Weasley have you read the Daily Prophet yet?"

Ginny looked up at the brunette and said, "No why? Is there anything special in it?"

Allison smirked and Ginny quirked her eyebrow. The girl went out of her office and came back in less than a minute with the paper, "You are front page news."

"What!" Ginny exclaimed while getting up.

Allison looked at the astonished red head and lowered eyes and noticed the bump on her stomach, "Oh so it is true!"

"Is what true?" Ginny asked annoyed while scanning at the front page.

"That you're pregnant with Draco Malfoy's baby no less."

Ginny narrowed her eyes and replied, "I never said it's his."

"Oh you don't need to tell me it says it all in there," she said pointing at the paper, "So Harry Potter wasn't good enough for you?"

"Allison my private life isn't any of your business."

"It's not private any more. Well have a nice day!" she said the last part quickly before she can here Ginny's retort.

Ginny grunted and looked at the front page again. The title of it was: 'Our favorite couple no more!' There was a picture of her and Harry that was once a whole picture and they made a tare down the middle. There were pictures of her and Draco walking in and out of St. Mungo's looking very happy, which had the caption saying that she found a new love quickly and saying that she could be expecting, one picture where they somehow zoomed in closer of her stomach so you can tell that she is definitely pregnant, another picture of Harry looking depressed which Ginny wondered how they got that, and there were a set of pictures of them from Spain that shocked her as well, 'how did they get these? I didn't feel anyone following us at all!' she thought confused. Then she gasped in horror because at the bottom of the page was a picture of Harry kissing her in Spain! 'Oh my gosh I have to get home right now before Draco sees this! He will for sure jump to conclusions, 'and when she took a second glance of the bottom of the page it said written by Padma Patil and edited by Parvati Patil. Ginny narrowed her eyes at the names and made a mental note that she'll get them back for this somehow.

She told her boss she had to go home because of a family emergency and to her surprise he let her go.

Ginny just hopes she's not too late.

When Draco was about to apparate home something caught his eye. There on the window of Madame Puddifoot's was the Daily Prophet placed on it and what shocked him was that the whole front page was of him and Ginny. Then to his disgust and anger Potter was kissing his girl. Draco was so mad in the face that he went home immediately without the thought of looking at the paper a second time.

---

Ginny got home and looked around, 'oh good he's not here,' she thought but then she heard a pop sound from the living room and a very angry voice calling, "Gin!"

Ginny bit her lip and thought, 'Oh no I spoke too soon.'

She went up to him and said with a bright smile, "Hi honey! How was work? You're home early."

"Don't you 'honey' me honey! Explain what's on the front page," he said while getting angrier by the second.

"What front page?" Ginny cursed her self and knew that sounded stupid but she had to buy some time.

Draco rolled his eyes at her comment and then saw something behind her back. He grabbed it, Ginny's eyes went wide and he pointed to the picture of her and Harry kissing, "This! What is going on?"

Ginny took a deep breath and said, "Alright I'll tell you, but you have to calm down, all right? It's not what you think."

"'Not what I think' isn't now? Ginny what else does it look like! You're locking lips with another man!"

"No! He's the one locking lips with me! I tried to fight him off but he was too strong!"

Draco sighed at sat down on the couch and she said, "You have to believe me. I would never do that to you. You see this?" She says while putting a hand on her stomach, "This is how much I love you. We created this together Draco, if that doesn't show how much I love you than I don't know what does."

Draco looked into her eyes and saw two things: love and honesty and as a result he smiled which made Ginny smile, "I am sorry baby, come here," he said and put his hand on the space next to him. Ginny sat down and wrapped her arms around his neck. Draco kissed the top of her head.

Ginny said, "Let's make a pack right now that no matter what we'll tell each other the truth and with what it ever it is that is bothering us."

Draco thought about it. This is the first committed, most serious, and longest relationship he's ever been on even though it's been a few months. During school he wasn't the most committed and honest person but he is of course willing to change all that for Ginny.

He smiled again and said, "Sure babe, anything for you."

Ginny kissed him and when they pulled apart Draco said, "Now what I am going to do about Potter?"

Ginny sighed and said, "I was worried you'll bring that up. Can you just forget about that?"

"No! He's trying to ruin what we have and I amt not just going to sit back and watch his plan through."

"Draco nothing will tare us apart. Not Harry, not the media, not my brothers, nor anyone, I promise. Don't let these things get in the way of us it's not worth it. I'll just talk to Hannah next time we go to St. Mungo's and I'll fix this whole mess, because I think that if Hannah are together for a very long time then that's good for us. What do you think?" she said looking at him the whole time.

"Alright, but if Potter lays one more hand or his lips on you I swear I'll go to the Ministry of Magic myself and do something about it."

Ginny answered, "And I won't stop you."

Draco kissed her and both of them are glad that they worked things out. Draco deepened the kiss and lowered her onto the couch which as a result made him on top of her, "Why do you get to be on the top?" Ginny asked with a smirk. Draco replied by making one of his infamous smirks and he let her push him down on the other side of the couch and Ginny straddled him which turned on Draco even more. While they are having a very heated snogging session which they both know will turn into something more a very confused, angry, and hurt blonde witch by the name of Hannah was looking at the picture on the Daily Prophet and wondered what she did wrong for the man she thought likes her will go against her back by kissing another girl while also thinking that she thought she made friends with that girl and that everything will be fine with the four of them.

Thanks for keeping up with my story and now that I have a month of vacation I will go back to my updating habits!
