Nothing belongs to me.
LXXIX: Tower
Ginny sighed, spinning around in her seat. "You're not making this any easier!"
Draco made no comment and only smirked, staring behind her, down at the Quidditch field.
"I just want to pitch you off the Astronomy Tower!" Ginny paused, blushing furiously at the thought of what she was about to say next. "And then…fly down and catch you before you reach the bottom."
She looked bravely up at Draco, screaming inwardly. "And it scares the shit out of me – " Seeing his blank face, she faltered. " – t-these feelings I feel."
Ginny faced the front again, bringing her knees to her chest. She listened hard for any response, closing her eyes when she heard none.
For the first time in a long time, Ginny felt like crying. What a fool she had been!
There was a noise a behind her, and she lifted her head, brushing long stands of red out of her eyes to see that Draco had clambered over a row of seats to join her.
He turned to her, smiling faintly. "I love you too."
