sorry for the MASSIVE delay, school .


Chapter 4 (Can't seem to look away)

Ginny felt Harry kiss her cheek and slide off her bed as she opened her eyes she saw him sneak out of the dorm. She yawned and stretched as she sat up in her bed.

"Why did he have to leave?" she pouted folding her arms

Ginny remove the blanket that was covering her legs as she placed her feet on the floor. She stood up and looked around at the other beds. Her dorm mates were all still asleep. Ginny drew in a breath and sighed. She walked over to her trunk and pull out a fresh pair of school clothes. She blushed while she dressed.

"He best not do anything like that again" she said quietly, think back the carriage incident.

As soon as she finished dressed Ginny left her dormitory and head down to the common room. She stoppedon the last step of the spiral staircase.

"I guess I'm the first Gryffindor up"

Instead of waiting in the common room for her friends to wake up Ginny left Gryffindor tower and decided to go to breakfast. She descended the marble staircase and walked passed the oak doors into the great hall. There were very few students up.

"But at least I'm not the first one here."
She thought
"Boo!"

Ginny jumped in surprise clutching her chest. She turned around to see who scared her. Then a sour look form upon her face.

"What?"
"Temper, temper, little Weaslette."

Draco smiled, which caused Ginny to blush.

"Why am I so embarrassed?"
she thought
"Do I really get to you that much?"

Ginny snapped out of her thoughts.

"Hm?"

Draco laughed.

"I guess I do" he said to her before going to the Slytherin table.

Ginny crossed her arms.

"What does he mean 'I guess I do'." She mumbled while her eyes remained fixated on Draco.
"Wow, you're sure up early."
"Huh?" Ginny quickly averting her eyes from Draco. "L- Luna, Hi!" she stumbled
"Have you eaten yet?" asked Luna
"No"
"Well come on then" Luna said happily as she push Ginny to the Gryffindor table.

Ginny and Luna sat down and started to eatthere breakfast.

"When do you suppose we'll get our schedules?" Luna asked
"Probably when more students wake up, I guess." Ginny looked up "Why did Luna have to sit on this side of the table?" she thought

Ginny was in direct eyesight of Draco and she really, REALLY didn't wanna have to look at him. Not now, not after that train ride. But she couldn't seem to stop herself. Ginny had been frozen in the same position for who knows how long. Her fork was in mid-air with food still upon it, but she didn't seem to notice. Ginny softly gasped when she saw Draco laugh with Crabbe and Goyle. Draco turned his head from his cronies and paused when he noticed Ginny staring at him. He grinned then winked at her. Ginny dropped her fork.

"What's wrong?" Luna asked
"N-nothing, it's nothing."

Draco chuckled and returned his eyes to his food.

"Morning Ginny."
"Harry!"

Harry leaned over and kissed Ginny's earlobe.

"Okay, okay enough of that" grumbled Ron

Hermione and Blair laughed.

"What's the matter Ginny?" Blair asked
"What?" she looked over to Blair "It's nothing"

Blair and Hermione liked at each other strangely.

"Man amI hungry!"

Ron sat down next the Harry and dung in.

"Ginny I'll see you later."
"Wait, Luna where are you going?"
"Professor Flitwick is passing out the Ravenclaw schedules. See you later."

Luna ran over to the Ravenclaw table to collect her schedule as Professor McGonagall approached them.

"Here you are Miss Granger."

Hermione took her schedule from Professor McGonagall

"Thank you Professor."

Professor McGonagall placed the others schedules on the table then went on to the other Gryffindors.

"Whoa! Harry, I can't believe your still taking potions!"
"Hmph! It's not like I want to or anything. Dumbledore just thinks it's a good idea for me to know my potions when it comes to Voldemort."
"…Potions." Ginny thought as she watched Snape hand Draco his schedule.
"Ginny look!"
"Hm?"

She snapped back to reality, when she noticed someonesaid her name.

"Look here" Ron tapped at her schedule "You havethat new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher today."
"Really?" asked Blair as everyone huddled around to see the paper.
"You have to tell us what she's like." said Hermione
"Yeah, we don't have her until Wednesday." Harry told Ginny
"I really hope she's nothing like Umbridge." Ron said to himself

Everyone shuddered.

"Don't we all."
Ginny thought
"Come on you guys, you don't want to be late for your first classes, do you?" Hermione said energetically. "Come on, come on!"

Hermione, Ron, and Blair head for the entrance hall.

"Yeah, yeah, like I'm really looking forward to see Snape so early in the morning." Harry grumbled

Harry and Ginny followed behind the others. Everyone circled together once in the entrance hall.

"Okay well Blair and I've got Astronomy so will see you two in Transfiguration later."
"Alright, I better head off to Arithmancy." Hermione said running after Blair and Ron.
"What's your first class?" Harry asked
"Herbology"
"I have to head down to the dungeons before Snape takes points from Gryffindor for being late." Harry kissed Ginny softly on the lips. "See you at lunch Gin!" he called back to her.

Ginny sighed. She looked back over to the entrance of the great hall, and then paused in her place. Draco was standing there looking very smug.

"That was quite a show."
"Shut up Malfoy!" Ginny blushed

Draco moved towards Ginny. Ginny tensed up.

"What is he doing?"
she thought

He stopped a few feet away from her.

"You seem to have a staring problem."

Ginny looked down.

"Well I'm right here, why don't you stare now?"

Ginny began to feel really awkward. Her heart was pounding in her chest. Draco took a step forward. Ginny did not want to look up. If she did she might loose herself. No she was going to keep looking down. Draco lifted his hand from his side and placed it on the soft skin of her face. Ginny shut her eyes tightly.

"I don't want to see what's happening, I don't want to see what's happening."
was all Ginny could think.

She could feel his hot breath on her face. Was he really that close to her? Ginny drew in a breath and then…

"What's going on here?" shriek Professor McGonagall

Ginny opened her eyes and saw Draco's panicked face inches away from hers. He took a large step away from Ginny.

"Why aren't two not in class?"

They both blushed.

"Er… um, well…" they stumbled
"Oh forget it. Just get going!" Professor McGonagall ordered

She left them there heading toward her office. Draco heaved a large sigh.He looked over to Ginny's still body.

"Hey,Weaslette, are you alright?."

Ginny unfroze from the shock.

"Would you stop calling me by that ridiculous name!" Ginny spat
"Well, what do you want me to call you, then? Pet? Love?"

Draco smiled while she rolled her eyes.

"Ginny."
"Oh alright, Ginny... Then, you can stop calling me Malfoy, okay?"
"Fine, bye Draco."
"Oy, where are you going?"
"To class."
"You're joking, after what we just went through?"
"No Draco, what you just went through, I'm late."

Ginny headed towards the oak doors.

"Ah come on!"
"Go to hell." Ginny calledback tohim on the stone steps.

Draco stood in his place until Ginny was completely out of his sight.

"Damn it, Weasley."
