A/N Here's another chapter for you! Enjoy!
Draco's P.O.V
Ginny comes home home in tears.
"Ginny? What's wrong?" I ask
"Everything is so messed up." She whispered, probably to herself
"Are you ok?" I say a little louder making sure she hears me
"No." She croaked, and sped off to her room, leaving a piece of parchment on the floor. I pick it up. I immediately understand why she is so upset. I then place the parchment back where she left it. She stays in her room and doesn't ask for help into bed. She sleeps late the next morning. I start to worry when I haven't seen her by noon that day. I go into her room and find her looking through a box of old photos of her and Harry some with others. She is crying, and I bet every photo is tear stained now. She looks so depressed.
"Ginny," I say softly. She struggles to look away from the photos. "Put the photos in the box, and hand it here. It is for your own good." I whisper. She reluctantly does so. I take it place it up high, and put a protection spell on it. "I know it hurts but those will only make it worse." I tell her.
"Draco." She whispers.
"Yes? I ask
"Thank you." She whispers.
Ginny's P.O.V.
I sit at the table with a piece of paper, trying to reply to Harry's letter. It take a while but I finish, it reads,
Harry,
It is nice hear from you. I accept your apology, and I would love for you to come back, but you wouldn't be able to crash at my place. Things have changed a lot. Mostly for worse. I guess you didn't hear about my freak accident. Long story short I am in a wheelchair living with Draco Malfoy, in a muggle apartment, well being treated with muggle medicine. I am not unhappy.
I haven't kept up with quitdditch because it hurts too much.
A lot is new. Besides the wheelchair. Dad moved out of the burrow. I am in a new relationship, and have made a new friend. I have gone through a lot of stuff.
What did you think was going to happen Harry, that you would come back and nothing would have changed? Because if you did. Your dead wrong. Like I said I would love you to come back, but you can't stay with me. I miss you too, but only as a friend.
Ginny
I seal it and floo to mums and send it to Harry from there.
"Are you ok Ginny?" Mum asks
"Yah." I say back.
"Ginny," She says
"I am fine." I say
"Ok." She says. We chat for an hour or so before we check the time and find Mum has to be at Bill and Fleur's in 15 minutes. I go home and make dinner. Draco and I have a quiet evening.
The next day I sleep late. I get up at about noon. At four I head to physio, it is later than usual, not that there's a problem. This session is the the longest yet, I leave at six. When I arrive home there is a beautiful candle-lit dinner in the table. There's caeser salad and spaghetti with sauce and chicken breast. It looks beautiful.
"What do you think?" Draco asks me
"It looks amazing." I say.
"Sit, or umm, park yourself I guess?" He says. I giggle
"Yes sir." I salute, laughing even harder. We have a wonderful dinner, then stay up late, watching muggle movies. It has become our thing. Staying up late watching the hilariously wrong movies.
The next day Mum floo's to say there is a letter for me. I tell Draco where I will be and go over.
"Hello?" I say when I come through the fire place.
"Hello Ginny, it is on the table." She says. I go over and open it.
Ginny,
I am sorry to hear about your situation. That must be awkward, living with Mr. Asshole. And that things aren't going well between your parents. I am happy to hear that found someone else, and that you made a friend. What do you think of living like a muggle? Is the place nice? I hope it is.
Now for the biggest news. I am coming back and already have a place and job lined up. I had to pull some strings, but it is happening. I am really excited to see you. I move in to my new place on August fifth and start my job on the fifteenth. Maybe we can met some time between then. I look for ward to your reply.
Harry
'How am I going to tell Harry, that I am dating Draco? Will his reaction be worse than the boys?' All these questions race through my brain.
"Ginny dear, are you ok?" Mum asks, slightly spooking me.
"I just have to tell Harry that I am dating Draco, so no biggie." I say sarcastically.
"I'm sorry honey." Mum hugs me.
"It's ok. It is not your fault. I should get going." I say
"Ok. We are having a big family dinner of Sunday August 6th, Charlie even pulled some strings and is coming. I really hope you can come. And bring Draco."
"Sure."
"When is Harry getting back."
"August fifth." I say.
"Maybe he can come too."
"I don't know it might be a bit awkward. And he will probably be busy unpacking, or something."
"I guess you're right. Well as you said have to go so, I will let you."
"Yah. I will see you Sunday. Bye Mum." I say and leave. I get home, and check what day it is. July 29th.
"Draco?" I call, he comes out of his room. "Where you working? It can wait."
"I was just doing paper work, I need a break anyway. What's up." he grabs a can of muggle soda we are trying and sits back wards on one of the dining room chair.
"Are you busy Sunday evening?" I ask
"No why?"
"You are now."
"Why?" He asks
"We are going to the burrow for dinner." I say
"Just us?"
"Nope, Mum, Bill, Fleur, baby Victorie, Charlie, Percy, Audrey, Fred, George, You, and me."
"That's a lot of people, that probably won't appreciate my presence."
"Draco, they might not be happy at first but they will accept it. Please come. I went to tea with your family." I say
"Yah, but none of my family wanted to beat you up." He says defensively
"Your aunt Bellatrix did try to kill me." I say
"But she wasn't at tea! You're brothers will be at dinner!" He says
"I know why you don't wanna come," I say in a teasing voice "You're afraid you're going to get beaten up." I say in a voice you would talk to a baby in.
"No! It's just that umm..." His voice trails off
"Don't worry, I'll protect you."
"I don't need you to protect me."
"Then what are you afraid of?" I ask
"I'll go." He says
"Thank you." I say just as there is a knock on the door. Draco cautiously goes to answer.
"Hello, is Ginevra Weasley home?" An unfamiliar voice asks
"Depends who's asking?" Draco sneers
"Derick Noyce, of the London P.D. Is she home?" Says the man
"Ginny, a police officer wants to talk to you."
"Coming." I call I make my way to the front door. "Yes?" I ask the officer
"Uh, Ginevra Weasley?" He asks
"No, I'm Elizabeth Rotteroff." I say sarcastically, finding myself getting pissed quiet quickly. "Speaking." I say
"Can I come in?" He asks
"Can you first tell me why you're here?" I say getting very pissed.
"It is about your whole ordeal nine weeks ago." He says
"I already spoke to many police officers, what do you want?" I say
"I need to confirm what happened to you, again can I please come in?" He says
"If I must repeat it to you guys again, I was kidnapped, dragged through the woods, shoved in a hole in the ground, I was beaten, raped, and had my bones broken. Is that all?" I raise my voice
"Can I have more details?" He asks
"I told the officers, at the HOSPITAL, about every fucking twig I saw over those 36 hours. I have given every last detail. Those officers said that was all they needed, and I wouldn't need to say anything more about it until we are in court! So NO! I can't give more details!" I am speaking very loudly and several neighbors are looking out their doors to see what is the commotion
"I need more details!" He says
"I'm not giving any!" I scream, well starting to cry
"I really didn't want to do this, but..." He trails off as he pulls out a gun and points at my head. I am overwhelmed with fear and I move my arms to my head, all the sudden I hear Draco scream
"Avada Kedavra!" And the officer falls to the ground dead.
A/N Sorry it has taken sooooo long to update, but it is hard because, I can't always right on my own time, and I have a possibly broken finger. I wanted to clarify the year is 2000, so Ginny is nineteen. Anyways hope you enjoyed, and please leave a review! Thanks!
