The marriage law drinny-------DISCONTINUED

Chapter 9

Ginny's POV

We were all seated with our 'significant' other, however I can see in no way shape or form how Draco Malfoy, the bleach blonde snake, could be any more significant to me than the next guy.
I turned to look at him, his hair wasn't his slicked back as it was gently hanging over his stormy eyes. He glanced back up at me, so I quickly avert my head to avoid him knowing I was looking at him.

My cheeks unfortunately betray me as I feel a blush creep to them.

My eyes burned holes into the plastic baby that McGonagall had given to each pair, we were meant to be wrapping it up in a blanket like McGonagall showed us.
"Right then Babyjane I say we get started" he spoke
I looked over to him, my brown brows furrowed in confusion as I look behind me to see who he could be referring to as babyjane.

"Are you talking to me?" I questioned, while pointing my index finger to my white shirt and tie.

"Who else?" He teased

"Babyjane?" I narrowed my eyes at him in a threatening fashion but it seemed to have no effect on him. It only brought out his signature smirk that I used to loath, but can't bring myself to anymore.
"Relax Ginny it's a nickname" He laughed "like the Rod Stewart song" he continued as he still saw the confusion etched into my face.

Draco's POV
I rolled back at the clueless expression still in her face and chuckled. I spun my quill in my fingers whilst remembering my first rule of getting any girl to like you.

RULE 1)
Give the girl a cute nickname that has meaning behind it, it will make her feel more special and make her think that she has private reference in my mind

Except, I couldn't pinpoint the meaning of this nickname, now, no one knows this but I do in fact have a taste for muggle things such as music and culture. But that's all; I have a reputation y'know.
I think the meaning of the nickname Babyjane was from 'Baby' from dirty dancing due to her general innocence yet fierceness (don't mention that I watched a chic flic in front of anyone)
Or for the reason I actually told Ginny, the Rod Stewart song.

But what's getting me, is that I never normally put this much effort into any other girls nickname. I just find a defining physical feature about them and stick with it until in done with her. Oh well?

Ginny's POV

The lesson with Draco was TERRIBLE... oh who am I kidding? It was hilarious!
We actually bonded which is weird because it's a Malfoy. But It was really fun, Draco actually managed to pop the plastic baby's head off.
It rolled of the table to McGonagall's long robe. Draco and desperately tried to contain our snickers and I tried to hide my face in my hand, but Draco lifted my chin and stared into my eyes with a flushed face (we were really laughing) and a genuine smile; not a smirk, a happy smile. I felt something g in the pit of my stomach when he looked at me: but I'm not quite sure what it was. I hope I'm not coming down with something.
I bit my lip as I made my way to DADA when I turned my head to see Draco making his way down the opposite end of the corridor mid conversation with Zabini.

I turned back to see Harry staring at me. I jumped in shock.
"Jesus Harry you gave me a heart attack!" I scolded and I clutched my heart. It was weird when I was with Draco I forgot anyone else I as in that classroom and completely disregarded any other noise apart from ours, weird.

"Gin!" He seethed turning around so he was beside my instead of opposite me, as he followed me to my class and heard the drones of other students fade into the background, we had separated ourselves from any other people in my year due to our quick walking.

"What is it Harry? Why are following me, you have lesson with mrs Trewlaney at the other end of the school?" I enquired
"I need to talk to you" he simply responded dragging me father away for my fellow pupils
"Oh blimey Harry spit it out!" I commanded while stumbling on to the left of him, my hand brushing the stone wall of Hogwarts
He let go of my elbow and stood back in-front of me
"Why are you being civil towards a Malfoy"  speaking as if he thought 'civil' and 'Malfoy' was foreign in the same sentence
"Are you serious Harry! I haven't seen you since the bloody assembly and the first time you do, you actually have a go at me for being nice to me future husband like it's treason. Your acting worse than Ron at the Yule ball." I snapped, I was getting very sick of his attitude vet fast.
"But it is treason Gin, he's filthy rotten and bullied you for years and now you all happy with him even though you are MY girlfriend!" He quipped
"Harry your NOT being serious are you, I'm engaged!" I shouted, holding up my engagement ring Draco gave to me in the hospital wing.
"You could not possibly think that I could stay with you after this law did you? I asked, sympathy falling in my face
His face dropped and he stopped walking. I turned around and faced him
"Harry I'm sorry but it's over, it not anyone fault it happened but it's finished. We are forced to move on now, I'm going to try with Draco ok? Because I know I deserve my chance at happiness and if this match making test is correct then Draco is that chance and so far, it's looking like a good one. Of course we will stay friends Harry, but you have a chance at happiness too, with lavender ok?"
He shakes his head in disbelief and I let out a disappointed sigh.
"No Ginny you are mine and that slimy git can't take you away, I will make sure of it" he seethed determinedly  and my heart broke for him. Poor Harry, any chance of normal he gets packs up and leaves. He runs back and jogs to class, he just need space to cool off right? Yeah. Quickly I hoist my brown satchel full of books far up my shoulder and flatten out my hair and shirt, so I look more presentable for class after mine and Harry's spat. Gently I close my eyes, take a deep breath and continue to make the rest of the way through this ancient, nostalgic castle. I turn my head back to see if there's anyone to walk with, I could use some company now.
The long corridor is still empty and Harry and I must've put distance between us and the others. I let out a louder sign to myself and continue and open the door to DADA.
