Ginny ran to lunch to make sure that she was there when Dumbledore made the announcement. She couldn't wait to see everyone's reactions to it. What have I gotten myself into? She brushed her concerns off as she entered the lunch room to find it packed with people. I guess Dumbledore made sure everyone would be here for the announcement.

Once inside the Lunch room, she looked for Draco to see if he had spoken to Blaise yet. She caught his eyes for a second and he shook his head. Ginny gave a slight nod and went to the Gryffindor table. She sat down next to Neville and waited for Dumbledore to appear. After a few minutes, he appeared. He cleared his throat and the room became quiet immediately.

"I have a very special announcement to make today. I would like to asked Ginevra Weasley to come up here with me.

5:04pm – Blaise was late… Ginny stood pacing in front of the portrait to Gryffindor tower waiting for Blaise to come help her move her stuff to the dungeons. I am going to kill him. She thought as she paced back and forth faster now. Another twenty minutes went by, it was now 5:24… Ginny was just about to go to the dungeons by herself

"YOU!" she screamed at him.

"What?" he asked winking at her slyly. "We said 5:30, right?"

"NO! We said 5:00, you bloody idiot!" she yelled as she held her wand out at him.

"Now, you wouldn't want to hex your guide for the next week, would you? I mean if anything happened to me, I don't think the rest of the Slytherins would be very happy." He said smirking at her.

"Fine." She answered as she put her wand away. "Will you help me with my stuff, please?"

"No way! I am not touching any of your blood traitor stuff." He said shaking head.

"Really? That's how it's going to be?" she asked smirking and walking over to him seductively. She pulled his head down close to her and began to whisper into his ear "I can make your life a living hell, Zabini. Much worse than you think you and your girlfriend, Malfoy, think you do to the golden trio. So, you listen to me, I want you to be a perfect guide this week and help me with my bags. If you do, I'll leave you alone for the remainder of this year. Am I making myself clear?"

She began to back away, but he grabbed her arm and pushed her up against the wall. "Let me make something clear to you, Weasley. I am not your pet or your body guard or whatever it is you think I am. I am merely obeying Dumbledore's orders, so that I don't get kicked out of Hogwarts. Because if I get kicked out of here, I will have no choice but to get the Dark Mark and be something I never ever want to be."

Ginny stared at him and saw a flicker of pain flash across his eyes. She said nothing, because she had no idea what to say to that. Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she saw something. Oh Crap. She thought. She quickly pulled Blaise closer to her to try to hide her face.

"What are you doing?" he whispered harshly into her ear.

"Hiding from the stupid trio, what does it look like?" she whispered back.

"Yeah, hiding behind me is really going to help."

"Look, Blaise, I'm sorry for threatening you. I'll relieve you of 'babysitting' duty if you help me out here." She begged.

He smirked as he pulled his wand out and quickly changed her hair to short blond curls.

"What now?" Ginny asked still trying to stay out of sight.

"Follow my lead." He whispered. She looked at him questioningly.

"Wha…" she began, but she was cut off by the fact that his lips had just crashed onto hers. She was too shocked to respond at first, but Blaise was a good leader. He soon had her kissing him with as equal force as him. She felt her body slowly responding to his advances and soon she forgot why they were doing this in the first place. Just as soon as it had started, Blaise pulled away panting heavily. They stared at each other for a moment. A voice broke the silence. The voice of Hermione Granger.

"Zabini, can you please snog your whore somewhere else beside next to our common room, please? It's disgusting."

Ginny looked away and Blaise turned to face Hermione. "You know, Granger, why don't do annoy weasel king and potty boy. You're not welcome here. I can kiss my girlfriend wherever I want to. There's nothing you can do about it."

She huffed at him and quickly went through the portal. After she had left, he turned back to Ginny and said "I expect you to hold up on your promise."

Ginny just stared open mouth at him and then looked around. There were a dozen or so students staring at them.

"Um… Blaise." She said pulling him back into her. "That might be hard to do, considering Malfoy and Company just saw all of that."

Blaise turned around to see Draco, Pansy, Theodore, Crabbe, and Goyle all staring at him. This is not good.

Blaise didn't know what to do. He turned back to Ginny, pleading in his eyes. She smirked pulling his lips back onto hers. They heard whistles from behind them. She broke free for a second and yelled with the best French accent she could "Can I not kiss mon ami in private?"

There was a scuffling of feet and soon they were alone. Ginny peered around Blaise to make sure the coast was clear, then pushed him away.

"Alright, moving on now. You're off duty now. I'll just be going to get my stuff and find my own way to the dungeons." She began to walk towards the tower.

"Wait!" Blaise shouted. "I'll be your guide and slave and whatever else you want. If you be my girlfriend for a while. Just until I can get the rumors under control."

"It's a deal." Ginny said beaming. "Now change my hair back." Never touch a blood traiter, Zabini? I just proved you wrong... Now to prove you wrong to everyone in Slytherin.
