"Do I know you?" Blaise said.
"Well, I think so. We went to school together but maybe you don't remember me anymore which is odd because you spent your school days tormenting my brother." She said.
Realization dawned on Blaise. "Your weasels little sister aren't you?" he said.
"I'm not so little anymore Zabini." She said.
"What's your name again?" he asked.
"It's Ginny. Short for Ginevra." She said. Then she handed him the football which he took slowly and during the process he gently brushed his hand with hers and it send shivers down her spine.
"Well Ginny, what brings you in California? Don't tell me the weasley clan is here too?" he said.
"Nope. It's a long story." She said.
"Maybe we can go for ice cream and you can tell me all about it?" he suggested.
"I'd love to." She said after contemplating the thought. After all Draco was on his little tirade, why cant she?
He smiled at her and said "you can go change and I'll just go tell my friends where I'm going." Then he ran to his friends after giving her a wink.
She snapped herself out of her daze and ran inside the house to change. She looked for her room containing her things and changed into a brown Capri, a fit white blouse and flip-flops. Then she put her hair into a high ponytail with elegant coils at the end.
She ran out the door again and found Blaise waiting for her patiently with a handsome smile plastered on his face.
"Hey. Are you all set?" Blaise said. She nodded and took his hand which he offered.
They walked all the way to the nearest but according to Blaise was the best ice cream parlor in town. They sat down and Ginny ordered strawberry ice cream and Blaise chose chocolate. They ate their ice cream and talked about random stuff.
Then as Blaise ate his chocolate ice cream, some of it was left on his upper left lip.
"Blaise… uh… you got a bit of..." she said while pointing at his face. He tried to wipe it off but it was still there.
"Never mind. I'll get it." She said and took a piece of tissue from her bag. She leaned in closer and wiped the smear of chocolate ice cream from his face.
"Thanks." He whispered. She blushed furiously and moved away from him.
Meanwhile outside the shop, Draco was walking with his date and feeling extremely bored. They were sitting outside the coffee shop and drinking coffee with her continuously trying to woo him.
Draco looked around and found Ginny and some black-haired dude with her at an ice cream parlor. "What the hell…" he muttered.
He can't help but be affected at seeing his fiancé with another guy and so quick too. He suddenly felt guilty for leaving her and wished that he could turn back time so that he could be spending time with Ginny and not that other guy she's with right now.
He squinted and tried to see what's going on and saw that Ginny leaned in closer to the guy. They looked like they were snogging! Draco clenched his jaw.
Why do you even care? A voice inside his head said.
How am I supposed to know? He thought back.
It's your fault anyway. You could be with her now but instead you left her for this whore.
Oh shut up!
Back to the question, why do you care?
I don't know… Malfoy's were never known to share.
Is that it?
I guess.
You are so pathetic.
Suddenly he was shattered from his thoughts when he heard the shrilly voice of his date.
"Look… uh… Bianca I need to go." He said and practically ran off not even sparing a backward glance at the girl.
"It's Ana Belle!" the girl screamed at his retreating form.
