A/N: I'm so sorry it took me longer than usual to update, I've just been busy at work. I really hope you guys enjoy this chapter!
Ginny woke up the next morning and just lay in bed thinking about Draco's memories yesterday. She just couldn't shake the image of Draco's face when Astoria was murdered right in front of him, how he latched on to her lifeless body...it made a lump form in her throat from the mere memory of it. She thought back to how Harry described the scene to her and it was all a lot more than she could handle right now. These weren't even her memories and she was feeling a slew of emotions that she couldn't explain.
She was pulled from her thoughts when there was a quick knock on the door and her mother popped her head in.
"Ginny, dear, everyone is downstairs for breakfast, why don't you get showered and dressed," she said with a smile.
Ginny just gave a quick nod and then pulled herself out of bed and headed to the bathroom and then made her way downstairs to see everyone eating breakfast and lost in conversation. She took a seat beside Harry and grabbed a piece of toast and tried to eat it. It was hard for her to eat anything when she kept thinking about the horrid scene she had seen yesterday. She took a small bite and managed to swallow it and then gave a soft sigh before she pushed the rest of it away from her.
"You ok?" Harry asked her.
She just looked at him and then ran her hand through her hair and then nodded, "Yeah...yeah I think so."
After breakfast, it was just Ginny, Harry, Hermione, and Ron left at the table and they were discussing the day ahead of them as Hermione beamed with excitement.
"So after the wedding tonight, Harry, Ron and I are going to Pristine Point, I'm sure you're coming along right?" Hermione asked.
"Of course," Ginny said. "Like I would miss out," she gave a wide smile and then it faded as a thought entered her mind. "Um...I want to ask you guys something," she started off.
"What's up, Gin?" Harry asked, looking at her with a raised eyebrow.
"I want to bring Draco to Pristine Point," she quickly said.
They all became silent, Pristine Point was there only escape from the world, it was literally a totally different life for them there. The only people that were ever told about it or were invited to it were people they knew that would be able to leave everything behind. There was never any drama or any talk of the wizarding world or past events that any of them went through, it was literally one giant party where everyone got along.
"Ginny, you know what that would mean right?" Ron asked her. "I mean...its Malfoy, is he even capable of having fun?" Ron said as Hermione slapped him on the arm. "Ouch, well its true, what if we let him in and then he ruins it for the rest of us? I don't know if I want to risk that."
Ginny just fidgeted with her hands as she thought about what her brother was saying, she knew he was right. She wasn't even sure if Draco would go and she wasn't sure he could turn his mind off like that enough to enjoy it. Harry saw the uncertainty on her face; he knew she just wanted to help him escape the darkest days of his life.
"I think we should allow it," Harry said suddenly, looking at Ginny and then to Ron and Hermione.
Ginny snapped her head up to meet his gaze and exchanged a small smile with him. She was surprised Harry was backing her up on this and then she turned to Ron and Hermione.
"So, what do you say?" she asked them.
"I think it's a lovely idea, as long as he's on board," Hermione said brightly.
They all turned their attention to Ron as they awaited his decision; they all had to agree to it before they could ever bring a new person there.
Ron just looked at all of them and then gave a hard sigh, "FINE! But if it's awkward or he pulls any of his Malfoy shit, he's out."
A wide smile stretched across Ginny's face, "Thanks guys,"
"Alright, don't we have a wedding to get ready for?" Harry mentioned as they all started to scramble to get up and head out of the kitchen.
Draco and his parents arrived at the Burrow that late afternoon for Ron and Hermione's wedding and it took much effort from all of them to show up. Draco knew why his parents were doing it, but he also knew how out of place they felt. He also felt a bit odd being here at an event so personal to the Weasleys; he really just felt like a total outsider. He didn't realize the Weasleys knew so many people and had a lot of extended family; most of which were less than pleased to see him and his parents there. He wasn't really sure why or if he cared at all what anyone thought and honestly, he really didn't; he was just here for his father's sake in the end...right?
The ceremony was about to start in a few minutes and he took a seat with his parents all the way in the back. He hadn't seen Ginny yet since he arrived and found himself looking all around for her. He watched Ron getting what seemed like a pep talk from Harry up at the altar and he couldn't help the smirk that formed on his face.
"A Pureblood and a Muggle getting married," Narcissa just gave a heavy sigh, "You hear about it... but to witness it is something I could have gone without seeing." she drawled.
"Here we go," Draco mumbled.
Narcissa just glared at him and then back up at Ron, "I suppose if ever a Pureblood and a Muggleborn should get married it should be these two, they do make a rather decent couple I suppose," she simply said as she continued to watch the groom start to hyperventilate.
Lucius and Draco both looked at her funny from her odd comment.
"What? I need to try and tell myself something to get through this," she stated.
"Lucius...Narcissa, I'm surprised to see you here at such an event," came Kingsley's voice from a few feet away as he made his way towards them.
"Nice to see you, Kingsley, yes, we were invited and thought it would be...nice to show our support for such an occasion," Narcissa managed to get out, even though she really wanted to say it was more beneficial to them than anything else.
Draco saw that Kingsley seemed impressed by their appearance there and he couldn't help but give a small smirk as he thought of Ginny and how this was her idea. He just sat there and drowned out the conversation his parents started having with Kingsley about how things were at the Ministry. His eyes finally found what he had been searching for since he arrived...Ginny Weasley. She was standing up at the altar, talking to her mum and she looked beautiful; she had this bright yellow dress on that only made her hair stand out that much more. He couldn't help but smile at how gorgeous she looked, especially with the late afternoon sun lighting up her hair that she had loosely pulled back with a small clip. She suddenly caught his gaze and she smiled at him, which made him smile that much more.
"Draco?"
Draco quickly wiped the smile off his face when he realized Kingsley was talking to him. He noticed Kingsley follow his gaze and a wide smile formed on his face when he saw who Draco was smiling at.
"I was asking how you were holding up since the Hogsmeade incident?" Kingsley asked as he turned back to Draco with a small smirk.
"Uh... I'm fine... everything is good." he stammered for words.
Kingsley just smiled again. "Good, I'm happy to hear it, well, I better be getting to my seat," he said.
As soon as Kingsley walked off, Narcissa and Lucius both stared at Draco.
"What?" he asked.
"Son, please explain to me why you're ogling the Weasley girl," Lucius drawled with a bit of a hiss to his words.
"WHAT? I wasn't ogling her, I-"
"Draco, do you like her?" Narcissa bluntly asked.
"I..." he trailed off as he took another look across at her as the ceremony started. "I guess, yeah, I mean she's different and interesting, who doesn't like that?"
"US!...we don't like that, especially a Malfoy," Narcissa stated.
"You guys are freaking out over absolutely nothing, we're just...friends I guess," he explained. "Now drop it," he sneered.
The ceremony had started and soon Hermione had made her way down the aisle to Ron, whose palms finally stayed dry once his wife to be had joined him up there. Ginny smiled to herself as she watched all of Ron's nerves completely relax once he saw Hermione. She listened to their vows and as she did, she glanced up at Draco once more and then she couldn't help but think back to her conversation last night with Harry. Sure, she liked Draco, he was good looking and quite interesting, but it wasn't anything more than that.
Before Ginny realized how lost in her thoughts she was, the sound of applause and cheers filled her ears and she turned to see Hermione and Ron share their first kiss as husband and wife. Soon everyone made their way over to where the reception was going to take place and Ginny took her opportunity to make her way over to Draco who was grabbing a drink.
"Hey you," she said with a smile.
"Oh, H-hey," he managed to get out as he realized how much more amazing she looked up close. "I hope these drinks contain liquor," he drawled, as he took a sip and then made a nasty face.
Ginny just giggled, "Here, this one is the one you're looking for," she laughed, handing him a different glass from down the table.
"Thanks," he said, taking the glass from her and throwing it back into his mouth.
Narcissa made her way over to Molly, Arthur and Harry during the reception as Lucius got caught up in another long conversation with Kingsley. She managed to find some wine that she was very pleased about, given the position she somewhat felt forced to be in.
"Molly...Arthur...what a lovely wedding...very simple," she said, looking around the transformed backyard of the Burrow.
Molly became instantly defensive, "Well, we can't all afford such big extravagant-"
"Relax, Molly, I never said simple was a bad thing," she smirked. "These days simple seems so much better anyway," she sighed, taking a rather large gulp from her wine glass.
Molly, Arthur, and Harry just looked at her, "Oh, uh, well, thank you, Narcissa," Molly said, surprised by the comment. "Thank you for coming to the wedding, it was...I didn't expect you to accept the invite."
"Well, you can thank your daughter for that one, she is the one who convinced us to come after all, as I'm sure she is the one who convinced you to invite us," she said, looking at Molly with a raised eyebrow.
Harry smirked to himself, he knew how cunning Ginny was.
"Indeed she did, I suppose it was best for the both of us," Molly decided.
"Hmm, I suppose, I think it's just that she wanted Draco to come really," Narcissa shrugged.
They all looked at her, "Why do you think that?" Arthur asked.
"Well, they are sleeping together so-"
Harry spit his drink out into the grass at her comment and started violently coughing. "S-sorry...just choking on m-my ...drink," he said through his coughs.
Molly slapped him hard on the back as she turned back to Narcissa, "Excuse me?" she asked her again.
Narcissa just looked at her with a smirk, "Oh, I thought you knew...my mistake," she said, taking a sip of her wine and walking away.
As soon as she started walking away Molly and Arthur turned to Harry, "Did you know about this?" they both asked.
"What? No!" he said, "Besides, you don't even know if she's telling the truth," he suggested.
Molly and Arthur just turned their attention to their daughter across the way, who was in deep conversation with Draco.
"I don't know, Harry, I have a feeling she may be right," Arthur said with a heavy sigh.
"So I saw Kingsley talking with your parents, I think he's impressed that they came," Ginny said, as she walked with Draco over to a nearby table where there was a bunch of finger foods.
"Yeah, I suppose so...I guess your plan worked," he said, looking at her with a smirk.
She just smiled at him and then it faded suddenly, "Oh, shit, here he comes," she mumbled.
Draco looked at her funny and then turned to see Will walking up to them.
"There you are, Ginny, I was looking for you," he said with that charming smile. "Mr. Malfoy, I didn't realize your family was so...close to the Weasleys," he said, giving Draco a quick glance over, before holding his hand out for Draco to shake.
He just looked at Will's hand with a sneer and then back up at him, ignoring his hand and just taking a sip of his drink.
Will cleared his throat and then turned his attention back to Ginny, "Not the social type I see, anyway, how about a dance?" he asked her, holding his hand out for her to take.
"Oh, uh-"
"Come on, I won't take no for an answer," he said with a handsome smile.
Ginny turned to take one last sip of her drink and place it down, "I bet," she mumbled to Draco. "Sure, why not," she said with a forced smile before she grabbed a powdery pastry and stuffed it into her mouth until her cheeks were bulging.
Draco just smirked at her before she let Will lead her over to dance with him.
"So ladylike that one is," Harry said as he walked up beside Draco.
"Look at that bloody wanker, what a fuckin joke," Draco sneered, as he threw the rest of his drink back while watching Ginny and Will dance.
"You seem rather riled up over him being here, are you jealous?"
"Pft, jealous of what?" he scoffed, turning around and filling his glass up again, "Ginny, can't stand him,"
Harry just smirked. "So... your mother just told Ginny's parents that you guys are sleeping together,"
Just like Harry did earlier, Draco spit his drink out at his comment, "WHAT? Why the hell would she do that?" he asked angrily.
Harry just shrugged, "Not sure...I mean, she could be making it up," Harry suggested.
Draco started watching Ginny dance with Will again with that famous Malfoy sneer plastered on his face, "Yeah, she could be," he mumbled.
"So...are you?" Harry asked.
Draco finally managed to peel his eyes off of Ginny for a moment to look at him, "What's the problem, Potter? And is that really any of your business? My mother is a troublemaker, she'll say anything to get someone riled up," he snapped, before finishing off his drink once more and walked away.
Draco went off in search of his mother and he saw her talking to his father in a secluded corner away from most of the crowd. He strode up to her and grabbed her arm and pulled her further away from the crowd.
"Why the fuck are you telling Ginny's parents that we're sleeping together?" he asked angrily through clenched teeth.
"Oh relax, Draco, it's so obvious, I thought they knew already honestly," she said waving her hand to dismiss it.
"Draco, please tell me you are NOT screwing around with that Weasley girl," Lucius drawled, rubbing his temples in frustration.
"I'm not..."
"Well, thank goodness for th-"
"...she's screwing around with me," Draco shrugged.
His parents just looked at him.
"What? The opportunity presented itself and-"
"Ok, enough," Narcissa cut him off, we don't need the details.
"Son, why the bloody hell would you-Did you ever-I have no words, honestly," Lucius said, trying to think of something to say.
"I think what your father is really trying to say is, what exactly is going on with you and Miss Weasley?"
Draco rolled his eyes in annoyance, "NOTHING, we're just...I don't know... friends? That's it, now please stop telling the world about my life," he snapped, walking away angrily.
Lucius and Narcissa just watched him walk off.
"Sometimes...I want to choke that boy," Narcissa drawled, before she took a sip of her wine.
Ginny made her way over to Draco, who was sitting by himself at an empty table in deep thought it looked like.
"Where are your parents?" she asked, taking a seat beside him.
"They left a little bit ago," he scoffed at the previous conversation he had with them.
"What is it?" she asked, after seeing his reaction.
"Apparently my mother thought it was her place to tell your parents we're screwing around, although in my defense, it's really all your fault," he said.
She started to laugh and lightly slapped him, "Who cares what they said to my parents, I'm a big girl I can do whatever I want and whoever I want," she said. "Everyone is dancing, why don't you come join me for one?" she asked, attempting to pull him up from the chair.
"Yeah, that's not happening,"
"GINNY! What are you guys doing over here, the party is over there," her brother Bill said, plopping down in a chair next to them.
"Draco is being a party pooper," Ginny teased.
"Is it because there is a rumor going around about you guys sleeping together?" he laughed. "Because honestly, not everyone will remember that in the morning."
Draco just shook his head and slouched down further in his chair, "You see what you started?" he snapped at Ginny.
"Yeah, it was all me, let's go, Bill, I want to dance," she said, getting up and letting her brother pull her onto the dance floor.
Draco just watched her, he loved how she was so laid back after everyone hearing about their intimate encounters together. She wasn't embarrassed by it or even tried to deny it, she was fine with whoever knew and she didn't care. Did he just think the word "love"? No way, that's not possible he thought to himself. Sure, there were things Ginny did that completely caught his attention and sure she made him smile even when he just smirked or even sneered in place of it. She treated him like a regular person and never once brought up anything from their Hogwarts days or even when his family served the Dark Lord.
He just watched her dancing with Bill as he twirled her all around and then when a more upbeat song came on they both just started jumping and singing along to the song. She didn't have a care in the world it seemed and he couldn't help but smile at her...she was quite extraordinary he thought. When he looked at her he was always a little happier than the moment before and it made him think of Astoria and how she had the same effect on him. His heart suddenly sank when he realized he was falling in love with Ginny Weasley.
"I didn't realize you and Ginny were a couple," said Will as he took a seat beside Draco.
Draco was suddenly pulled from his thoughts, "We aren't, what the hell do you want, Chamberlain, is it a crime now to accept invitations to weddings?" he drawled.
Will just gave a soft laugh,"I didn't think you two would be a thing...I mean...come on, you and her?"
Draco glared at him, "That's funny because we're more of a "thing" then you are with her, but with that handsome and sickening charm you try to pull on her it's kind of hard to see where things went wrong," he said sarcastically.
"Ginny doesn't realize what's good and...not good for her," he said, looking at Draco with a bright smile.
"Yeah, well, maybe when your balls finally drop you can try again," Draco sneered, leaning back in his chair and watching Ginny once more.
Will suddenly slammed his fist on the table and leaned in closer to Draco, "Watch yourself, Draco Malfoy, I have a lot more up my sleeve than you may think," he said in a threatening tone.
"Is it a book on how to kiss because I heard you kind of suck in that department."
Will started to laugh and then his facial expression turned to anger and he leaned in closer, "You just have no idea, do you?" he said, with a satisfied grin.
Draco just glared at him and before he could say anything Harry came walking over.
"Everything ok over here?"
"Ah, yes, absolutely, Draco and I were just chatting," Will said, slapping Draco on the shoulder. "Enjoy the rest of the celebration," he grinned as he walked away.
"What a fuckin prick," Draco drawled.
Harry just smirked, "Yeah, he's not for everyone, that's for sure," Harry watched Draco for a moment and then followed his gaze to Ginny, he couldn't help but smile to himself.
Ginny made her way back over and plopped down in the seat next to Harry, "I can't believe the party is ending soon, this evening flew by," she said with some disappointment.
"Well, there is still Pristine Point to go to, so technically the party is just beginning," Harry reminded her.
She just gave a bright smile, "Very true, go see if Ron and Hermione are still going and I'll work on this guy," she said, locking eyes with Draco as he overheard her comment.
Harry got up and walked away and Ginny moved over to the seat beside Draco.
"What exactly is going on?" he asked her with a raised eyebrow.
"I want to take you to Pristine Point tonight with us," she said with a bright smile.
"I don't think so, Ginny,"
"Look at you using my name again, it kind of turns me on," she teased him.
He just smirked.
"Seriously, Draco, come on, you NEED to come, you just have to. It's... it's amazing, please just trust me on this, you will forget every single damn worry in your life...I promise," she went on trying to convince him.
"You shouldn't make promises you can't keep," he said softly, looking down at the glass in his hand.
Ginny gently put her hand on his, which made him snap his eyes up to hers. Everything she did and said had a whole new effect on him since he had realized the feelings he had for her. He felt a lump form in his throat as she gave his hand a light squeeze.
"I promise, this will be a night you won't soon forget," she said with an even bigger smile.
As soon as Draco apparated and landed, he felt his feet sink into a bunch of sand. He was immediately met with a light breeze from the night sky and the smell of the beach filled his nose. He opened his eyes and was met with a vast ocean ahead of him and the night sky shining down. It felt and looked amazing, something he hadn't felt or seen in so long; he was finding it hard not to rip his shoes off and feel the water on them.
"Whoa," was all he managed to get out.
"I know, it's amazing...come on," Ginny said, pulling him by the wrist down a small sandy hill.
Draco finally took notice of the loud music blaring up ahead and then saw a crowd of people dancing and laughing. He couldn't help but stop in his tracks as he felt his defenses go up and he wrapped his hand around the wand in his pocket. Ginny noticed his sudden halt and turned to see his reaction; she pushed his hand away from his wand.
"Relax, almost everyone here is a Muggle, besides us, of course, and Harry, Ron, and Hermione. You CAN'T use magic and you won't need to either. Trust me," she reassured him.
"No magic? What if someone attacks us?" he snapped angrily.
She suddenly grabbed his shoulders and looked at him. "Draco, look at me," she said with a small giggle.
He looked into her warm honey brown eyes.
"When you're here...you're NOT Draco Malfoy...you're just Draco, nobody knows who the hell the Malfoys are, so relax, ok?" she finished with a smile.
He just gave a small nod and then she finished pulling him along down to the crowd. She started pulling him through all the people as they were bumped into and a few people called out her name to say hi since Ginny was a frequent visitor. She dragged him all the way up to a large bar area where there were three different bartenders handing drinks out to everyone. Ginny leaned over the counter and pulled herself up a bit and waved her hand.
"EDDY! HEY, EDDY!" she yelled out over the music.
"GINNY! HOW THE HELL ARE YOU, BABY?" he said, reaching over and giving her a kiss on each cheek.
"Hey, Eddy, this is my friend Draco, Draco this is Eddy," she said.
"Nice to meet you, oh damn he's fine," Eddy said, taking a glance over Draco.
"Sorry, Eddy, he's straight," Ginny giggled. "Well, I think so...Draco are you gay by chance?" she teased him.
"NO!" he snapped, causing Ginny and Eddy to fall into a fit of laughter.
"I'm just kidding, Draco...Eddy, let's get this night started," she looked at Draco for a moment and then turned back to Eddy,"Let's start off with five shots," she ordered, slamming her hand on the counter repeatedly.
He went to go grab the drinks when Harry, Ron, and Hermione finally met them there.
"Aye, Draco, you came," Harry said, giving him a light slap on the shoulder.
Eddy soon came over and placed the five shots down in front of Draco and he started to pass them out to Ginny, Harry, and the others.
"No, no, no, no, noooo...these.." Ron started to speak, grabbing all the shots and placing them back in front of Draco, "...are for you to start off with," he said with a huge grin.
"WHAT? You want me to down five shots?" he asked.
"YES!" they all said.
"Don't worry, Draco, they did the same thing to me the first time they brought me here," Hermione reassured him.
Eddy brought over another slew of shots for the rest of them.
"Hopefully your a happy drunk," Ginny laughed, before throwing all five of her's back one after the other. "You need to loosen up, come on," she said, banging her fist on the counter.
As she did this the crowd seemed to pick up on Draco's uncertainty of getting shit faced and started chanting for him to drink it. He just looked at Ginny and shook his head at how much of a party girl he didn't realize her to be and threw each one back. Everyone seemed to be pleased with his actions and cheered and applauded and soon started dancing to the music once more.
Draco just watched the others join the crowd, especially Harry and how he just blended in like a normal person.
He leaned closer to Ginny, "So, nobody recognizes Potter...his scar? Nothing like that? It's like he's a nobody..." he trailed off.
Ginny just looked at him with a smile, "Yeah, he's just Harry...and I'm just Ginny. There's no Purebloods or Half-bloods...we're all just Muggles here...nobody is here to judge us, that's why we have never spoken about this place... it's our escape. The Muggles...they are usually the same local people that are always here, yeah, you have one or two drunken fights between some people, but they usually just share a few more drinks and it all blows over," she shrugged as she nodded to Eddy for another round of drinks. "One time, Hermione was so drunk she took one look at my red hair and thought I was Ron and stuck her tongue down my throat." she laughed.
He just smirked and thought about what she had said. "So... you just forget that there's a file in Potter's office on you and that-"
She quickly put her fingertips gently over his lips, "Remember...just Draco...just Ginny...just Harry when we are here,"
He looked at her and gave a nod before Eddy came over with a few more shots.
"Ok, three more and then let's get to dancing," she said, throwing three more back.
"Uh, dancing? I don't thin-"
"No, no, just shut up and drink," she cut him off as he had the shot glass halfway to his lips and she lifted it the rest of the way to his mouth until he drank it.
She nodded to the other two shots waiting for him and he just stared at them for a moment, "Fuck it," he decided and threw the other two back.
"Alright, let's go," she quickly said, grabbing him by the wrist and pulling him into the crowd. She stopped right in the middle until people were practically leaning on each other and she just started to dance. She saw Draco just watching her and looking around and then she stopped and spun him around.
"What are you doing?" he asked.
She ripped his suit jacket off and threw it into the crowd, "You're too put together, it's bothering me," she said with a smile and then unclipped her hair and threw that too, letting her vibrant strands fall all around her face.
"That jacket was one of my favor-"
He was cut off when she grabbed his tie and pulled him to her. "Loosen this up too, you'll enjoy yourself more...I promise," she smirked, before undoing the top button of his shirt.
"Now I just look like a slob," he sneered, looking himself over.
She just laughed. "Yeah, take a look around and tell me if anyone gives a shit."
He took a quick glance around. "So you just dance and drink all night?"
Before she could answer, another song came on and made everyone give a round of cheers and then start to dance more wildly. Some people were jumping and ended up pushing people all over the place, causing Ginny to be slammed right into Draco. He caught her in his arms before she was pushed too far and toppled over. She just looked at him with a giant smile and started to dance again; every time she spun or jumped along her hair would gently hit Draco in the face. He would normally make some snarky comment, but her scent was intoxicating to him and at one point, he thought he might just grab her and snog her senseless.
He just watched the crowd, Harry was dancing with some random girls and Ron and Hermione were all over each other. His eyes went back to Ginny, who was jumping along to the song with a bunch of other people, one was a guy who was very touchy feely and kept putting his hands on Ginny's waist. Draco wanted to break both hands, but he noticed Ginny didn't seem to mind it and he had to remind himself it was all in good fun.
It had been about an hour of dancing and Draco's drinks were starting to kick in. Ginny somehow managed to break free from the crowd that swallowed her earlier and found Draco's hand and pulled him to the bar once more. Everyone was a sweaty mess, but nobody cared, everyone was feeling good and having fun.
Ginny said something to Eddy and he went and brought her back a champagne bottle. She pulled herself up onto the bar counter and started to open the bottle. "HEY GUYS!" she yelled, making everyone stop to look at her, "I JUST WANT TO SAY CONGRATULATIONS TO MY BROTHER RON AND TO HERMIONE BECAUSE THEY JUST TIED THE KNOT TONIGHT!" she screamed out, before she shook up the bottle of champagne and then popped it, letting it spray all over the crowd.
Everyone erupted into cheers and applause and went wild when the champagne went everywhere. Draco was soaked in it and he soon realized Ginny was too as he helped her down from the counter. She had one arm around his neck and he naturally had one wrapped around her waist as she brought the bottle of champagne up to her lips and took a few sips. She brought it up to his mouth and poured more than she meant to into his mouth making it spill everywhere.
She just started laughing and used her hand to wipe some of it off, "Sorry, EDDY! MORE DRINKS!" she yelled out.
He handed her a few mixed drinks and she handed one to Draco before she pulled him along past the crowd and down towards the beach. Someone had started a small fire and she plopped down in the sand with him beside her. They could still hear the music in the background as they just stared out into the ocean.
She looked at him with a smile., "How are you feeling?"
He took a sip of his drink, "Uh, like I'm going to have a bloody wicked headache in the morning," he said, making them both laugh, "What about you?"
"Yeah, I'm feeling it, everyone is fuckin trashed... watch this," she said, gesturing to some girl that was barely conscious next to them. "Hey, you want to hear something crazy?" she said to the girl.
"Oh...uh...yeah definitely...what is it?" the girl asked, practically crawling closer to them.
"You see this guy right here?" she asked gesturing to Draco. "He knows magic, he even went to school to learn it," she said, causing Draco to reach forward to cover her mouth but she pushed his hand away.
The girl just looked at him, "WOW, like...a fuckin wizard and shit?" she asked, starting to laugh at the very thought of it.
"Oh yeah, and he even has a nifty wand too," Ginny said with a giant smile.
"Oh shit...like a magician? Can you pull like... a rabbit out of a hat...I love bunnies," she said, slurring her words.
Draco just looked at Ginny snickering beside him. "No, I haven't mastered that trick yet, right now I'm still learning how to pour milk down my trousers," he joked.
The girl just stared at him, "I wish I had milk," she said before lying back in the sand and passing out.
Ginny and Draco started laughing.
"See, you can tell anyone anything when they're drunk enough."
"WE BROUGHT MORE SHOTSSS!" came Hermione's voice as she walked over to them with Ron and Harry behind her.
She went to hand them to Ginny and Draco when she spilled a little on Draco's pant leg and she started laughing. "It...it looks like you pissed yourself," she managed to gasp out through her laughter as she fell to her knees in the sand beside him.
Ginny almost spit her drink out but managed to get it down before she too burst out laughing.
Draco just looked at his wet pants for a few moments, "Fuck, it does look like I pissed my pants," he said before they all laughed again.
They all just sat there watching the waves hit the shore, Hermione seemed to have been trashed the most so far as she was sprawled out in the sand with one of her legs hanging over Harry's lap and her head partially against Draco's leg and in the sand. She soon passed out and Ron decided it was time to head back home.
"Alright, let's get you back home," Ron said, slinging Hermione over his shoulder. "Guess I won't be consummating this marriage tonight," he joked.
"Well, she is drunk so you could if you want," Draco suggested, as Ginny and Harry snickered at his comment, making Ron give him a light kick as he walked past.
"I think I'm going to get going also, I have to work tomorrow," said Harry, getting up and following Ron.
After they left Ginny got up and put her hand out for Draco to take, which he did and he pulled himself up. She started walking towards the water and when Draco thought she was going to stop at the edge of the shore, she didn't. He walked after her a little bit until his shoes were being soaked by the washed-up waves and he saw Ginny still walking out into the water.
"Hey, what are you doing?" he called out to her.
"I'm going night swimming, come on," she laughed, as she was now waist deep in the water.
"Ginny, wait," he called again as he made his way to her.
By the time he got to her the water was up to his chest and he was soaked from the crashing waves against him. He grabbed her wrist to stop her from walking any further.
"Let's go deeper," she said, trying to pull her hand from his grasp.
"I think that's enough, you've been drinking...we've both been drinking and it's completely dark out here. Let's head back to the shore," he said, nodding towards the beach.
She swam up to him until their faces were only inches apart, "Are you scared of being out this deep?" she whispered to him.
He felt his heart begin to race at her close contact with him and how she snaked her arms around his neck. He thought she was going to kiss him and he would have gladly met her halfway, but before anything happened a wave hit them hard and they both fell into the water. He quickly resurfaced to the sound of Ginny's laughs and he just smirked at her and then pulled her back to shore. As soon as they reached the beach Ginny was already pulling him back to the bar area where the drinking and dancing were still going strong. If anything, it looked like there were even more people that were there now.
"EDDY, MORE DRINKS!" she called out.
"Uh, Eddy, how about a water for us to go with those drinks?" Draco said.
Eddy came over and brought them their drinks and water and Ginny quickly downed her's and then made her way out onto the dance floor again and Draco just sat at the bar.
"Eddy, does she always drink this much?"
"Sometimes, she kind of just does her own thing. She always somehow makes her way back home it seems, but she usually waits to sober up before she goes home to her folks like that," he said.
"How often does she come here?"
"These days? Not too much, she used to come almost every day, but now it's only like once a week, she doesn't normally drink this much," he said, leaning on the counter and watching her for a moment. "She's pretty awesome, one of my favorite regulars that come around."
Draco just nodded and then turned back to Ginny and watched her dance. He could tell she was completely wasted and the drinks were hitting her hard. He started walking towards her and saw the same guy from earlier with his hands on her waist again.
"Time to go, Ginny,"
"What? Why? I want to keep dancing," she laughed, as the same guy kept touching her as they danced together, which Ginny was oblivious to in her current state.
Draco grabbed the guys hand and threw them off of her, "Hands off, dickhead," he snapped, before grabbing Ginny and pulling her back to the bar. "Here, drink this," he said, handing her the glass of water.
"What's wrong?" she asked him.
"Nothing, I just think we should get going," he said.
"The night is young, what are you talking about?" she giggled.
"Ginny, it's four in the morning, I think-"
Ginny suddenly lost her balance and almost fell on the floor before Draco caught her in his arms. She was just laughing and practically passed out at this point.
"Yeah, it's definitely time to go," he mumbled to himself as he dragged her all the way back to the spot they they first appeared at when they apparated here.
He stopped for a moment before he went to take her home to the Burrow and thought about what Eddy said about bringing her home like this. He knew Ginny would kill him if he brought her to her parents in this state and with a heavy sigh, he apparated to his bedroom at Malfoy Manor.
