Chapter 9- Playing in the Rain
The next day Ginny was for some reason thinking about Malfoy.
Why am I thinking about him? thought Ginny.
She decided to rest her thought out on the quidditch field. The wind seemed to be strong today as Ginny walked toward the field with her hair blowing around her. She saw no one on the field at first, but as she drew closer she saw someone flying around.
Damn, why is there always someone? thought Ginny.
She mounted her broom and rose in the air to find Malfoy flying around, try to catch a snitch.
"Draco, do you honestly have to be here when I'm so miserable?" said Ginny.
"Well, little Miss. Weasel-bee, I just happened to be here first and what's made you so miserable?" said Draco, looking her up and down.
"Seems like you cleaned up since I last saw you" said Draco.
"Why did you save Harry and I when we were bleeding?" asked Ginny.
"Well, I couldn't just leave you lot there" said Draco.
Did he just blush? No, he couldn't have thought Ginny.
"Since you're here, do you want to have a go?" asked Draco, smiling but surprisingly not smirking.
"I guess. How'd you get that anyway?" asked Ginny, pointing to the snitch.
"'Nicked it" said Draco. "Now close your eyes" he said as he let the snitch go.
Ginny felt a drop of water on her cheek and opened her eyes to find Malfoy next to her. Looking up, more rain started falling out of the sky.
"Looks like rain" she joked to Draco.
He smirked and looked around. Suddenly, he took off, leaving Ginny trailing after him. Trailing only a little behind, Ginny struggled to catch up. Finally, they were neck and neck racing to catch the snitch, just as Malfoy's fingers wrapped around the wet, wriggling snitch.
"Oh, you" said Ginny, playfully hitting him. On instinct, Draco hit her back, a little harder than he meant to. Ginny lost her balanced, and tipped sideways.
"Ahh" she screamed as Malfoy grabbed her wrist pulling himself down off his own broom. They were close enough so when the skidded the ground, they weren't hurt.
Soaking wet, Ginny laughed as the wind rolled the pair down along the field. They came to a sudden halt with Ginny on top of Malfoy. For a minute, Ginny forgot who she was with. She looked deep into his eyes.
Blue or silver? She questioned. She felt his hand come up and touch her cheek.
"Eyelash" he whispered. Ginny looked down to see an eyelash on Draco's finger.
"Make a wish" he said.
Ginny blew the eyelash off and smiled. Draco smiled back and pushed her wet hair out of her face, leaving his hand on her cheek. Ginny saw his face move closer and closed her eyes leaning in towards him.
The rain washed over them as they kissed (more like snogged) in the rain for what seemed like hours. They had gotten to a standing position and were underneath the stands, dripping wet. The storm provided natural music in the background for them. Draco pushed Ginny against the back of a pole then came to meet her.
He undid her robe and took off her tie. Ginny ran her hands through his hair as he undid her top revealing a lacy, pink bra. She unbuttoned his shirt while taking a breath, then ripped it off as he did the same.
Draco lurched at Ginny as his hands ran over her body, feeling her up. Ginny's hands went over Draco's firm muscles. Their tongues danced until Draco moved his head down to her neck.
"Mmm, Draco…" moaned Ginny. Sweating, Ginny played with his ear then pulled back.
"What's wrong?" asked Draco.
"Well, I mean…, it's just, well it's you Draco. I mean, Draco Malfoy? With me?" Said Ginny, panting.
"Truthfully, I've liked you for quite some time" replied Malfoy, playing with her hand.
Feeling uncomfortable, Ginny decided to leave.
"I, umm, better be getting back before people start wondering where I am" said Ginny, feeling lame.
"Oh, alright" said Draco, looking disappointed.
"See ya" said Ginny, pulling on her robe and walking away. She glanced back once to see him still standing there, watching her.
Weird thought Ginny, as she paced through the castle completely alone. Ginny glanced in a nearby mirror then retraced her steps, looking again. Slowly, she pulled down her collar, revealing a red hikki.
Shit thought Ginny, racing to find Hermione.
