On My Own

Draco woke early getting up quickly and pulling some clothes on. He ran down the stairs and began to make a bowl of cereal. He had to get over to Ginny’s house.

He had to talk to her. He had been tossing and turning all night getting up a few times to go over to her.

He grabbed his wand and stepped out the back door looking up into the dark sky as thunder rumbled load.

“Well at least she will have to let me in,” Draco muttered then began to walk towards her house.

Ginny woke refreshed smiling at her pillow happy to sleep so well. Then she moved and she groaned in pain she looked over at her arm and saw that her skin was burned she sighed sitting up slowly felling as though she had the worse sun burn in her life, and as a red head it was something she was used to.

She grabbed her wand and then walked slowly over to her expandable bag and said “accio ditiny.” She walked into the bathroom turning on the cold water for the bath tub pouring ditiny into the tub then stepping in.


Ginny sighed as her skin tingled with relief she closed her eyes and submerged her self. Ginny gasped as she emerged from the water and then pulled her self out of the tub walking to her mirror and staring at her pail white skin.

Ginny grabbed her wand and looked around the bathroom. Then walked into her bed room and looked around. She needed to paint she thought staring at the old pealing wall paper. She pulled on some clothes and left her room heading for the stairs.

“Pig I need you to take a note to Draco…” Ginny said then sat down hard on the stairs the memories of last flowing back into her mind. I need to get this house painted inside and outside now Ginny thought pushing the thoughts from her mind walking to the front door.

She grabbed summoned her expandable bag and then opened her door staring out at the dark skies as thunder began to rumble over head. She opened her bag and accioed out her rain coat and umbrella trying to remind her self to totally unpack.

Ginny pulled on her coat and walked out of her house swishing her wand behind her to lock the doors and set protection. Rain began to drip at first as she headed down the drive way toward the entrance to Kestiline.

Draco approached he back door looking around for any sign that she was awake. He stepped up to the door and found it locked.

He walked around to the front trying to stay out of the rain that had just begun to fall. The front door was shut tight and locked up.

Draco pulled out his wand, “Homenum Revelio” Draco said and was shocked that it didn’t seem like any one was home.

Draco turned and looked toward the entrance to Kestiline, he saw a wisp of Blond hair and he turned and ran toward where she had just walked around the bend.

“Ginny,” He hollered and she paused briefly then kept walking as the rain began to pour. She lectured her self mentally to pretend nothing happen last night if he could treat is as nothing so could she.

She stopped and turned around putting a fake smile on her face.


“Ginny, where are you going?” Draco asked coming to a stop a few feet away. “I need to get paint for my house,” Ginny said turning and walking under the sign that marked the entrance to there properties.

“Ginny, how are you going to get enough paint for your house home. “I will have them deliver it,” Ginny said turning around to face him.

“Ginny I need to talk to you,” Draco said trying in vain to wipe the rain from his face as it poured down on him. “Well I’m in a hurry I don’t want to get stuck in the rain,” Ginny said then took out her wand.

“Gin..,” Draco said and grasped her arm as she turned on the spot. They popped into a small grove of trees behind the Fit-It-Store.

“Draco,” Ginny said getting frustrated. “Ginny where are we?” Draco asked looking around. “Majis, please let go of my arm,” Ginny said.

Draco let her go he watched her as she walked out of the woods he could tell something was wrong. Ginny hurried into the store lowering her umbrella.

Ginny walked up to a display of paint colors and began to pick out different colors not really caring what she was grabbing. Draco walked into the store looking around then walked over to where Ginny was looking.

“Interesting choices,” Draco said looking at all the different colors. Ginny ignored him staring at a wall of exterior paint. “What color do you want for out side?” Draco asked looking at the wall of colors.

“How about gray,” Ginny said turning to him. She stared into his eyes and regretted the color choice immediately. His cool gray eyes bored into hers as he stepped closer. Ginny grabbed the gray and spun around walking to the register.

Draco frowned catching a glimpse of fire red in Ginny’s hair. “Ginny!” Draco said looking around worried about revealing her true identity to others.

He Looked around the store then hurried up to her side as she finished telling the man what she needed. “When would you like it delivered?” the man at the desk asked her.

“Soon as possible I will give you an extra tip as long as you deliver it for her today!” Draco said and Ginny stared at him. “Sir have you seen it outside?” The man asked. Draco pulled money from his pocket and handed it to the man.

He flipped threw it his eyes widening, “Today it is sir,” the man said pocketing the money. “Thank you,” Ginny grumbled and turned to leave. “Ginny hold up,” Draco said. “You didn’t need to do that,” Ginny said.

“Ginny we need to go home,” Draco said. Ginny kept walking pulling her umbrella out. “Ginny we need to walk home no magic please Ginny,” Draco pleaded. Ginny turned around surprised at his plead.

He stepped under her umbrella his eyes pleading with her. “Ginny your hair has red in it,” Draco said. Glancing around he watched two guys walking down the sidewalk muttering to each other.

“Ginny come here,” Draco said pulling her close, “Do you have an extendible ear on you?” Draco asked watching the men carefully. Ginny pulled one from her coat pocket.

Draco set it on the inside of the umbrella and held the other end out between him and Ginny. “Damn muggle city I don’t see why they send us to places where no wizard in there right mind would want to be,” One man said.

“Ginny gasped staring at Draco in horror. The men crossed the street headed toward them. “Lets ask these two if they have seen anything strange,” the other wizard said laughing.

Draco yanked the extendable ear free pocketing it then pulled Ginny to him reaching up and grabbing the red streak in the back hiding it in his hand then pulled her in to a deep kiss.

The men walked up to them glancing under the umbrella, “Guess there busy,” The one man said with a laughing. “You think there brother and sister in this little hick town?” The other man said with a laugh.

Draco turned Ginny pressing her to the building, he couldn’t stop him self her scent was filling his scenes her lips responded to his so perfectly. He felt him self growing hard against her, there was a load crack and the men where suddenly gone.

Ginny pulled away her heart beating so fast she thought it would pop out of her chest. Draco breathed deeply leaning forward to capture her lips again. Ginny backed away pain flowing threw her Draco reached out and pulled her back to him.

Draco kissed her deeply sliding his hand into her jacket and up her shirt along her smooth skin. Ginny pushed him away and walked down the side walk leaving her umbrella on the ground next to him.
