Welcome to the amazing world of Regina Draconis, Chapter Eight. It's just after Christmas and I have put on tremendous amounts of weight eating too much on Christmas Day. It was so good though…Sorry about not updating more frequently recently. I am currently suffering from exam stress, fortunately, my last exam is this Wednesday, so I can get back into the swing of things and start writing again.
Disclaimer: Would have been great for Christmas if I were allowed to own these characters. But unfortunately that is not the case and I do not own them. Still.
'Nice flat.'
'Are you being sarcastic? I myself am rather fond of where I live. Call me crazy.'
'No Gin, I was being sincere. The flat really is nice.' Harry smiled down at her.
'Thanks, want a drink?
'I won't say no to a coffee.'
'One coffee coming up. Can you get the fire going?'
'Sure.'
'Thanks.'
Ginny pottered through a door into her kitchen. Harry could hear her bashing around in the cupboards, searching for cups and coffee, and no doubt sugar with that as well.'
'Do you take milk and sugar?'
'Same as always.'
'It's been such a long time I think I've forgotten what's normal.'
He felt his heart sink. So she had forgotten, like she'd promised. Well it was up to him to get her to remember.
'Black. No sugar.'
'Are you sure?'
'Yes, don't you remember I was always too lazy to add the milk and sugar?'
'Well I confess it slipped my mind. Like magic.'
'And stop shouting through the walls you're giving me a headache.'
'Sorry, I guess I forgot how delicate you are.' Ginny said as she walked through the doors. 'Here you are.'
'Thanks.' Harry took his coffee from her. 'How do you think Draco looked?'
'I think he looked rather well actually. He's certainly got more handsome.'
'Even though he never finished his education?'
'Harry, good looks aren't defined by your education. And neither is intelligence. Just because he didn't finish school, or go on to a university or get an apprenticeship doesn't make him any less intelligent.'
'But it makes you get a better jobs.'
'Not so, most jobs look for skills. Communicating, how you are with people. And personalities.'
'Not that he has much of a personality.'
'Shut up and drink your coffee. And then go home.'
He smiled. Oh he'd have her. He knew it. And he had a feeling so did she.
'OK, I'll go home. See you tomorrow?'
'Sure. I'm going to go to the Burrow to see Ron and Hermione. They're probably in pieces about that wedding.'
'Yup, I know what you mean. Till tomorrow then.'
'Till tomorrow.'
And he was gone.
'You ruined it.'
'No I didn't.'
'You followed them.'
'How many times?' Draco sighed. This had to be at least the fourth time he had been reprimanded by Snape. 'It doesn't matter, I've told the Dark Lord the outcome and he is pleased with me. He is currently formulating a plan to bring the downfall of the wonderful Harry Potter, and that little Weasley comes into it. As a matter of fact. I've been told to pay her a visit. Tomorrow.'
I know it's short. But I hope you like it.
