Chapter 8 Draco's P.O.V.
We get back and I immediately start checking out restaurants. I know she likes Italian food based off what she makes when she cooks dinner, and when we order out I find one not super far, and with preferred prices. We agreed we didn't want to spend a fortune on dinner tonight, even though I could fly her to Italy in a private muggle jet and take her to the most expensive restaurant in the country. I just want her to like it. I phone and make reservations. I then figure out transportation. We will have a one of the building drivers take us there, another service offered, and because it isn't too far we will walk back.
"Ginny, I have set everything up." I tell her.
"Where are we going?" She asks
"Guess, you'll have to wait and find out?" I say teasing her
"But how will I know how to dress, I don't want to look out of place." She says trying to convince me to tell
"Nothing too fancy, remember simple is beautiful."
"What am I supposed to do with that?" She whines.
"I am sure you can figure it out. And if not aren't gays supposed to be a girls best friend when it come to that kinda thing? Call Brad if you need." I say. She goes into her room and comes out a while later and calls Brad he comes over quite quick. They disappear into her room and I don't see them for two hours. I head over to the manor and change there, I also want to talk to mother.
"Draco!" She smiles. "Is something wrong?"
"Just need some of the clothes I didn't pack." I say
"Interesting, because all muggle clothes you took were causal, all that is left is more formal wear. What's going on?"
"I have a date." I say as I move to my room, Mother follows.
"With who?" She asks her voice full of curiosity.
"Ginevra." I say as a grab the items I see fit
"I had a feeling that might happen." She says
"What is there something wrong?" I ask
"No, nothing I just felt that you and her might grow close well living together."
"It is just a date, Mother. It is not like I am about to marry her." I say.
"I never said anything about that, as lovely as grandchildren would be." She hints strongly.
"Well you're going to have to wait some more." I chuckle.
Ginny's P.O.V.
I say goodbye to Brad and close the door as Draco appears in the kitchen. He looks very nice. Polished slip on shoes, dark, skinny jeans, a white button-up shirt, a black dress coat. All of it is of course muggle. His hair is done the it usually done. He looks very handsome.
"Ginny, you look stunning." He says. I am wearing a knee length soft mint green colour dress. The top is covered in shiny little sequins, there is a simple black ribbon tied in a bow showing off my hourglass figure. The bottom is simply layers of chiffon in a high low cut not that it is very obvious. My hair is braided and twisted up into a bun. I wear black ballet flats. I wear little makeup. There is a small diamond necklace around my neck.
"As do you." I say.
"We should get going, we have a reservation for 7:30. Do you have everything you need?" He says
"Yes."
"Then let's get going." He pushes me down to the car. It is a short drive and when we arrive are taken immediately to our table, one of the chairs is already gone. I smile at Draco.
We have a lovely time, and agree to return to the restaurant. We walk home in the nice cool summer, evening air. We reach home too soon. But I am tired so I change and go to bed.
The next day I have physio, Draco stays home and works well I go.
"So how did it go?" Brad asks
"It was lovely, we went to the restaurant and had an amazing dinner, we then walked home. Well he walked, I rolled." I say
"Don't worry you'll be walking in no time, then you both can walk home." He smiles
"I hope so." I say.
When I get home Draco is talking to someone via the floo. He is slightly startled to see me when he is finished.
"You scared me. How long were you there?" He asks
"Not long. Who were you talking to?" I ask
"My mother."
"Ok, do you mind if I ask what about?"
"We were thinking, maybe we could all meet up for lunch sometime soon." as he finishes I tense a little.
"Draco, we've been one one date and you want me to meet your mother?" I ask slightly shocked.
"I didn't even think of it that way. I am so sorry."
"No need to apologize. I would be delighted to meet her formally." I say
"Are you sure?"
"Yes." I smile
Draco's P.O.V.
I am kicking myself mentally. Why was I so stupid? I may have ruined things between us. I am sitting on the couch working. Ginny at the table reading a book, well Hermione may have been a know-it-all, I think Ginny is the real bookworm, she simply reads more fantasy, and fiction, where as Hermione read non-fiction and fact books. There is a knock on the door. I answer it.
"Mr. Weasley! How-" I am cut off
"What on earth do you think you're doing?" He screams at me
"I don't know what you're talking about." I say
"Don't play dumb with me!"
"I really have no idea-" once again I am cut off
"You have no idea? Do you really have NO idea what I am talking about?" He grabs my left arm and pushes up my sleeve. "This is what I am talking about! What have you done to her?" He screams.
"Nothing I haven't laid a single unwanted finger on her!" I say defending myself
"Unwanted! So now your doing what? Cursing her! Making her say she want you!"
"I haven't cursed Ginny!" I say
"Sure you haven't! You've touched her admit it! Ginny? Ginny? Where are you?" He continues to scream.
"She is reading a novel in the dining room. And she is still a virgin as far as I know!"
"THAT'S BULLSHIT! THAT IS BULLSHIT! I know what you've done! Do you not think news spreads to the magical world!"
"I've done nothing!" I say, expecting more screaming but instead he punches me in the face.
Mr. Weasley pushes me to the ground and starts punching the crap out of me.
"Stop Daddy! Stop it! Don't hurt him!" I hear Ginny scream.
"Ginny, I am helping you. He is a horrible person!" He says continuing to pummel me
"No his isn't! Daddy stop!" she screams.
"Oh my bloody fing god, he has brain washed you!" No signs of him stopping
"No he hasn't! Daddy STOP!" Ginny screams, and starts crying. All the sudden Brad comes to the door.
He whispers something under his breath. "Stop it! Stop it right now!" He says pulling Mr. Weasley off of me.
"Draco move." I get up and go to Ginny she rises her wand towards her father. "Petrificus totalus." I hear her whisper, as the spell hits him, she sheds a tear or two. Brad puts Mr. Weasley down in the hall.
"Is there someone you could floo?" Brad asks
I head to the fireplace and floo the auror's office. Two auror's come through and one takes Mr. Weasley. The other stays to talk to me, Ginny, and Brad.
"Mr. Malfoy, tell me your side of the story."
"I was in the living room working when there was a knock at the door, so I answered it. Mr. Weasley was on the other side, he started accusing me of things like raping Miss Weasley and brain washing her, I denied it as I am innocent, and he proceeded to attack me then, Brad Bolichowski, here showed up and pulled Mr. Weasley off me, Gin-Miss Weasley then used the Petrificus totalus spell on her father." I finish.
"Ok Thank you." says the auror and he goes to talk to Ginny.
Ginny's P.O.V.
"So tell me your side of the story."
"Um I was in the dining room, and I heard my father screaming at Draco, I called the closets person I could think of Mr. Bolichowski. I then went to see if I could stop my father. Mr. Bolichowski showed up and thankfully broke it up, I used the Petrificus totalus spell on my father." I say.
"And you were comfortable using magic in the presence of a muggle?"
"Mr. Bolichowski is not a muggle, but a squib. And I felt that if I didn't things would get even more out of hand." I say confidently.
"How do you know Mr. Bolichowski is a squib, and not lair?" He asks
"He is my friend and I trust him, also he is registered as a squib." I say. Squibs in situations like Brad's become registered so that they don't get in trouble, they are given a cards that identifies them as a squib but only to a witch or wizard, so no muggles find it by accident.
"Then he will have no problem proving it to me?"
"No, go talk to him, he will prove it." I say getting frustrated.
Eventually he leaves, and Brad does soon after. I talk to Mum and then finally get chance to look at Draco's injuries.
A/N So thank you everyone for giving my story a chance. I really hope you enjoyed this chapter. But I have a problem; as some of you can probably tell, I am having trouble writing scenes with Ginny at physio, I am being vague and making stuff up. If any of you have ever had a spinal cord injury, or are doing physio for a spinal cord injury, or know lots about this kind of stuff and are willing to help me, please review and I can hopefully get in touch with you. I would love to be as realistic as possible. Anyways please leave a review. Thanks for reading!
