But I Never Loved You

Don't You Cry

Ginny felt herself slowly wake up, but she refused to open her eyes. She had just had the nightmare of a life time! She dreamed that she was at this amazing dinner with Draco, and she had-

She opened her eyes and realized it had not been a dream… She was in a small flat that she didn't recognize, and she was surrounded by pictures of…Herself? Pictures that had been taken in her years at Hogwarts, hand painted renditions, even baby pictures!

She stood up and walked to the door, only to find that it was locked, and of course her wand was back at Malfoy Manor! She looked for a window, and was unsurprised to find none. She sat at the edge of the bed she had been sleeping in, and put her head in her hands. It was throbbing.

"Good morning sunshine!" came a shriek that made her head ache even worse than it had been before.

Ginny looked up and watched Pansy Parkinson walk into the bedroom, if it could even be called that. It was more like some kind of psychotic shrine.

"Why am I here? What's going on?" Ginny asked, looking up at her with wide eyes. She vaguely remembered the events of the night before, but she was doing her best to pretend that she was asleep right now.

"My dear, you left Draco because you knew it was the right thing to do to be with me! We're in love!"

Ginny shook her head violently. "No we're not! I hardly even know you! Sure we went to school together, but-"

A spell whipped past Ginny's head, causing her to stop talking quicker than she had started.

"Next time, I won't miss. You're in love with me Virginia Parkinson!"

Ginny felt herself dry heave, but she knew better than to make a noise. Parkinson… Had she married this girl while she was out of it? She sure hoped not! That would be a horrible ordeal to get herself out of when she finally left.

Wait a minute, she was being held captive! It took her a minute to realize, but the truth of the matter was that she really was being held against her will! She didn't just randomly fall in love with a woman and leave the party that Malfoy and his family spent a very long time planning to make perfect for her. No…She had been taken against her will.

Ginny wiped her eyes and shook her head. "What's going on? Why? Do you love him so much that you feel like you have to make him hate me?"

Pansy tilted her head to the side. "Oh dear…I think you're a little confused. I don't love him! I never did! It's always been you that I had my eyes on! Yes I know…It's highly looked down upon to be of the lesbian persuasion, but I just can't help myself!"

Pansy took a step toward her, putting a hand to her cheek, and pressing their lips together. Something about her kiss was gentle, and Ginny allowed herself to calm down a little. That was, until she grabbed her by the hair and slammed her against the wall. "You'll stay here. You'll marry me. You will never see any of your family again, unless I accompany you. Got that?"

Ginny felt herself begin to cry as hysterically as she could manage. Pansy was a woman…A crazy woman granted, but a woman nonetheless. If there was any ounce of human left in her cruel body, she would at least show some compassion…

Pansy pulled away slightly and looked down at Ginny's vulnerable, pathetic body. "Don't you cry…" The words were thick with evil, but her eyes were a little kinder. She took a deep breath and shook her head.

"Get dressed," she said. She turned to the door and opened it. "We're going to Hogsmeade, so we can show our new love off."

Draco ran up the steps to Blaise Zambini's room, pushing house elves and whores all the way up.

"Zambini!" he screeched at the top of his lungs, kicking his bedroom door in. He was curled in a ball with a small blonde…thing.

"What's with all the noise mate! Can't you see that I'm busy!"

Draco walked over to his side of the bed and grabbed him by his neck, slamming him up against the wall. "Where's my wife? I want her, and I want her right this second!"

Blaise felt his throat close up. "She isn't your wife remember! Not yet… I thought you didn't want to get married to her anyway!"

Draco slammed his head against the wall again, very aware that a naked blonde ran from the room. "She's never liked Pansy a day in her life. Something is wrong with her. She would never want to be with her so what did you do!"

Blaise tried to pull from his grasp, but was unsuccessful. There was nothing left to do unless he wanted to pass out.

"What makes you think I had anything to do with this?"

"Because, every time I open a paper, all I see is pictures of you and Pansy. I'm not stupid, I know you're best friends! I know she tells you everything. You would have known if they were having an affair, and if you had heard of this I know you would have told me! I want to know what is going on with her and I want to know right this fucking moment!"

Blaise shook his head, doing his best to make himself not look like a liar. "I'll find out for you. I promise I'll find out for you!"

Draco let go of him and heard a loud thump as he crashed to the floor.

"You have one week. If I don't hear from you, I'll kill you. And her."

He left and slammed the door.

Ginny looked all around as Pansy held her hand tightly. She had been forced to drink some sort of potion… She was allowed to speak and walk freely, so she wasn't quite sure what the potion was supposed to do…

Dozens of people with cameras were swarming them, taking pictures and asking too many questions. "So Mrs. Malfoy, you're a lesbian?" "Didn't you used to be engaged to Mr. Malfoy, Ms Parkinson?" "What are you guys doing here? Buying wedding dresses?"

"Ginny!" she heard and turned her head, but suddenly felt a sharp pang. "Ginny it's me! Ron!"

But Ginny couldn't turn to look.

"Oh no…" she said to herself, realizing that only a few feet before her was none other than Draco…

A/N I know this is kind of short, especially for me, but this is just sort of a filler chapter for all the excitement to come :D Gosh I'm excited hehe. This story is almost over so I'm a little sad, but it's always exciting to complete something you've worked years on, you know?

Well, I hope everyone has enjoyed this story so far! And as a little token of my appreciation, and because I feel wicked bad that this chapter is so short this time around, I decided that I'll give you a little preview of my upcoming story, Tempted To Touch. Sit back, relax, and think of this as a commercial on tv :D

Black Screen

I never thought things would happen this way…

"He's just gotten remarried Gin… I was wondering why you didn't go to the wedding!"

sigh

But I could hardly help this sudden urge I felt to just escape from my body, my heart, my old life where I was nothing more than the wife of some stupid hero.

"In other news, Draco Malfoy, son of famed Death Eater Lucius Malfoy, escaped from Azkaban on Tuesday. He is said to be armed and very dangerous!"

How could I have possibly known that soon I, littlest Weasley of the bunch would be harboring a criminal?

"Let me go! Stop!"

"Calm down Weasley, I won't hurt you, if you do exactly what it is that I tell you."

"Just leave me alone!"

scream in the distance

"I don't know what it is about you Weasel, but you have me so…"
