Never Let You Go ✔️(HINNY FANFIC)

Chapter-6 Christmas crisis

It was a bright sunny day. Ginny didn't have her practice and she was free for the rest of the day. She was laying on her bed when she heard her name.

Ginny's POV

I got up and made my way to the hall, cursing mentally to Draco for waking up this early.

"What's up Draco?" I asked to Draco who was making some food for breakfast.

"Well, you told me last night it's your day off, isn't it?" He asked unwrapping the apron from his waist.

"Yes, today there is no practice but why did you ask?" I asked him furiously ruffling my hair, sleeplessly.

I lazily sat down on the couch waiting for his answer. He made his way to me and then sat down on the couch.

"You know there is this girl I met one month ago, and I asked her if she could come to my cafe someday. And I just got the reply. She is coming today." He said looking down, playing with his apron cloth in his hand.

"And? What is this has to do with me?" I paused and then sighed heavily.

"Let me tell you, Draco, I'm not coming with you for keeping you company. Last time you asked me to sit just behind your so-called muggle date. And that was hell boring. Not this time!" I exclaimed remembering that awful day.

Last time was boring. I had to sit far away from the pair just for his sake of not messing up anything. Draco's date was beautiful and chatty which I liked. But when Draco opened his mouth, no words came. He was nervous as he had never talked to any muggle-born let alone talking to a muggle would obviously be a little awkward for him.

"Well this time I am not asking you for coming. I just need some advice. I don't know how to behave properly in front of girls." He said with pleading eyes.

"Well this can be solved. You jus - " I was interrupted by the knocking on the window.

Draco gave me a slight shrug and went to open the window.

"Hey! I think it's your family owl. You have a letter!" He exclaimed before handing me an envelope, a big red wax seal stamping on the opening.

"It seems like you have gotten a howler, Ginny." He smirked. The embarrassing memory of Ron getting a howler in his second year came into my mind. I remembered in that my mother mentioned my name at last in a very sweet voice. I turned red when I started playing that scene in my mind.

"You remember when your mother sent you one for the Weasley. Oh, what a sight was that!" He shook his head in laughter. "Come on, open it!"

"Why are you getting so jumpy about this?" I said chuckling and raising an eyebrow.

"Just open the letter, Weasley."

"Ok" I tore off the envelope and start reading the letter.

Oh my god!

"Draco! Pack your bags and get out right now!" I said with the panic look.

"Wait...what! Ginny what the hell?!"
He asked looking at me.

"Here, read this." I said handing him the letter and started pacing. I was so sure my body would be shaking.

************************************
Dear Ginny

We have decided that this Christmas we are going to celebrate in your house. Well, we know you don't like much people in your apartment. Last time we came, I noticed you eagerly wanted us to go. Please this time don't do this.
I know your concern and that after what happened you blame us that we are still talking and caring for Harry but I am telling you for million times that whatever happened is between you both. I knew him since he was a kid. Apart from that, we all want to know how are you doing. Well, day after tomorrow is Christmas Eve and we will be coming on the eve. Don't you worry about the decorations and food. I will handle it. You just prepare the house. Just some cleaning would work.

Love
Mum
P.S. - Don't mind but Harry is coming too. :)

Draco read the whole letter in shock and looked up at me. I stopped pacing and looked back at him in concern.

"So?" I started.

"So." He said backing down, probably knowing what I was about to say.

"So Draco you have to be out of this house for some two-three days."

"I..well I don't know why are you worried because Harry is coming or because of your family?" He asked me in amusement while smirking at me.

"Oh lord, Draco! First of all I am worried because of both the reasons.
And secondly, my family doesn't know you are living here for a specific reason. You have to go somewhere."
I said in protest.

Well, I was worried mostly because of Harry because I didn't know how to react in front of him now. Although, he had already attempted many times to convinced me after that but I had promised myself not to be fooled again.

"Earth to Redhead!" He snapped at me, waving his hand in front of my face.

"Draco...what will we going to do? Last time when they came I shove them off and you had to sleep in your cafe. Could you possibly do this time too. Please?" I asked him making some cute and pleading faces.

"Are you mental Ginny?! That time it was only for a night and in this letter it is specified that your mother doesn't want to shove them off. I won't spent three two nights in the cafe. It's so uncomfortable there. Furthermore, I will not spend my Christmas like this." He stopped for a second and then again speaks,
"I think it's time for you to tell them about me. You know my condition and all."

"Draco...I can't. They will think something is happening between us. The Wizarding World still thinks you are Death Eater and you are hiding somewhere. Imagine how they will react if they see you here and also if they know you are living in my place for one year now." I said looking him concerned.

That morning we ate our breakfast in silence thinking of something.

I did care about him. He had been gone through a lot. First, his father forced him to continue the family legacy. Then when he changed the side, he nearly got killed. Then ministry arrested his father and his own father accused Draco of proposing his plan further and so he ran away, which force him to live his life in disguise.

According to my knowledge, Aurors were in search of him even though his unnoticed innocence. Even, The Harry Potter, head-Auror had been specifically searching for him. And that was where the main problem had emerged.

And here I am ending this episode.
Sorry it's been a while I haven't show what is Harry doing. I promise next episode will be from Harry's POV.
Well, this time Ginny can't ignore Harry. Can she?
