Plan B

Ginny walked around the Quidditch pitch distractedly. She didn't want to have to resort to this because it would be the most daring thing she would ever do in her life; not to mention if it failed she would be the laughing stock of the whole school.

Plan B was not going to be easy. It would mean cornering Harry in the changing rooms and using any means necessary to go with her. Basically she was going to kidnap him and either keep him there till he agreed to go with her or try seduce him so he says yes. It wasn't an exactly full-proof plan but it was the best she could come up with.

Ginny stopped pacing as footsteps could be heard coming closer. She quickly ran to the changing rooms and waited behind the open door. She had it all planned. Harry would walk in unexpectedly. She would lock the door and try seducing him. She figured she could work things out from there.

Ginny waited nervously as she heard the footsteps coming closer and closer. Finally Harry walked into the changing rooms. She could see his outline through the crack in the door and watched him walk further in to the room.

Quickly she slammed the door shut and locked it with her wand.

“What are you doing?” His voice said bewildered from behind her.

“Harry I-” said Ginny as she turned around. Her mouth dropped open as she saw not Harry but Draco Malfoy standing in the middle of the room looking confused.

“What?” Draco asked laughing slightly.

“You.” Ginny said horrified. “You're not meant to be here.”

“I'm sorry did I spoil your kidnapping of whatever poor person was going to be left here.” Draco said in mocking accents.

“Oh shutup,” Ginny sighed placing a hand on her head. “I can't let this get out,” she mumbled to herself.

“What's that?” Draco said pricking up his ears.

“Accio Draco's wand” Ginny shouted.

They watched as his wand soared through the air and landed neatly in Ginny's open hand.

“What the hell do you think you are doing Weasley?” Draco asked looking at her sharply.

“Well I can't let you go blabbing this to everyone.” Ginny said annoyed.

“So what are you going to do,” Draco asked with one eyebrow raised.

“Kidnap you till you promise not to tell. Or until I think of something” Ginny shrugged.

Draco rolled his eyes. “Really little Weasley you could be more creative.”

“What are you talking about?” Ginny asked genuinely confused.

“You wanted to get Potter so you were going to lure him here? What were you going to do then? Seduce him?” Draco smirked.

Ginny blushed, “I don't know what you are talking about.”

Draco sighed, “You have a lot to learn. You can't just seduce boys and expect them to like you.”

“I didn't,” retorted Ginny annoyed.

“No but that is what you were going to do, wasn't it?” Draco asked laughing.

“Oh what would you know?” Ginny huffed. “You ruined everything. And now I'm stuck here with you wondering what I'm going to do to fix this.”

“Oh come on. My company isn't that bad.” Draco said in mock offended tones.

Ginny rolled her eyes, “You are such an arrogant jerk that it is impossible to enjoy your company.

Draco laughed softly and walked closer to her, “Really? And here I was beginning to believe you didn't hate me so much.”

Ginny looked up into his face and felt her blood quicken. He was so close she could see the flecks of blue sprinkled in his gray eyes as they looked deep into hers. She watched, as his mouth came closer to hers until finally she could feel his lips pressed against her own in a soft kiss. Her senses were on fire as he deepened the kiss. Dizzily she wrapped her arms around him and lost herself into the passion of the moment.

Draco placed one arm around her waist pulling her closer as his other hand slid up her side, causing Ginny to feel electric shocks run up through her spine.

Finally he pulled himself away. “You don't need to pretend to be something you're not to get a boy's attention little Weasley.” Draco whispered in her ear.

Ginny felt breathless and looked at him still slightly dazed.

He smiled and walked over to the door. Ginny realised he had his wand in his hand and realised why he had kissed her.

“You pig!” She yelled angrily.

He laughed, “Believe me Weasley; if I had wanted the wand I could have just wrestled it off you quite easily. I kissed you because I wanted to, not because I needed the wand.”

Ginny watched him leave feeling confused. She didn't really understand Draco. Was he just using another method to tease her? Or did he actually like her? She couldn't be sure and felt hurt at the possible reason that he just might have taken advantage of her because he could; it seemed a Dracoish thing to do. And yet he had sounded sincere when he said he kissed her because he wanted to. But what did that imply? Did he like her? Or was he just looking for a quick snog?

Ginny placed a hand to her head and left the changing rooms, completely forgetting all about meeting Harry.

OOOOOOOOOO

Draco walked to his dorm with a small smile on his face. He didn't really know how he felt about the little Weasley, only that he admired her greatly and yes even her looks. He knew a lot of people thought Ginny a plain even ugly girl who was not worth the notice of the boys while there were beautiful girls like the Patil twins around. But Draco didn't care. He had seen scores of beautiful girls but none of them could ever compare to Ginny Weasley.

Draco had longed to run his fingers through her long fiery red hair, to count every freckle on her nose and most of all to kiss her large soft lips. To Draco, Ginny Weasley was beautiful in everyway. She may not be tall or have long legs. She didn't even have boobs practically but she was perfect in his eyes.

He had watched her for a while now. He didn't know exactly when it was he realised Ginny Weasley was the most captivating girl he had ever seen, he only knew that gradually she became more beautiful to him each time he saw her; whether she was flying on her broomstick practising Quidditch, or simply talking with her friends, Draco had become enamoured with Ginny Weasley.

However he had to admit that today had given him pause. Instead of seeing the usual spunky girl he had grew to admire, he had been faced with some Pansy Parkinson replica; even the dress looked like something from her wardrobe and looked just as awful. And then there was the terrible sexy act she was trying to portray. Poor sweet Ginny just looked ridiculous, much like Pansy did when she tried to seduce Draco. But things had worked out. He had realised what she had been trying to do and promptly interrupted her little plans by meeting her in place of Harry.

And so it was with great pleasure that Draco had seized the opportunity in kissing Ginny Weasley. He smiled again as he remembered how easily she had succumbed to his kiss.

“But she likes Potter. The idiot obviously doesn't realise how much she likes him… This just might give me the edge I need.” Draco said to himself thoughtfully and began to formulate his own plans.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Ginny sat on her bed reading a book. She realised she had been reading the same line three times in a row and sighed.

Standing up she went to put the book on her dressing table but it fell on the floor with a thud. Distracted Ginny went to get changed and promptly dropped her robes on the floor instead of getting in the trunk.

She sat down at the mirror and began brushing her hair. Her eyes seemed to glaze over and she dropped the hairbrush.

“Oh! It wasn't that good a kiss anyway!” She huffed angrily and stood up and sat back on the bed.

She saw a letter addressed to her and stared. “What's this?” She muttered picking it up.

Opening up the letter Ginny saw written in what was clearly a male's writing,

Ginny,

Sorry about today.

I was wondering if you would go with me to the ball? I know how shy you get about these things so I figured I would write it instead of asking you. I hope you don't mind?

I've already bought a dress for you so you don't have to worry about that.

Ginny looked at the letter slightly confused. “Where is the signature?” she said annoyed.

“Could it be Harry? He would be silly enough to forget to sign it. And he did say sorry about today. And it does look very much like his writing so who else could it be?” Ginny asked herself.

She smiled and realised that today wasn't such a waste. She still got Harry to ask her to the Spring Ball.

Her heart plummeted as she remembered the kiss with Malfoy and she looked at the letter again.

“Oh stop thinking about him.” Ginny scolded herself, “So yes I admit he is a good kisser but he was being a complete jerk to you. Just forget him and go with Harry. It's what you've always dreamed about isn't it…?”

Ginny sighed and lay back on the bed. “Ohh Malfoy why did you have to complicate things so much?” Ginny asked no one in particular.

OOOOOOOOOO

That night Ginny had a very strange dream….

Ginny looked at Harry and smiled, “You dance amazingly.”

Harry grinned, “You don't need to lie Ginny. I know I'm a terrible dancer.”

Ginny smiled and said nothing.

After some time Harry whispered in her ear, “Do you want to go for a walk?”

Ginny nodded her head and together they left the dance hall. They walked outside and Ginny smiled at the beautiful blossoms covering the trees. The fountain had been bewitched so that each spout of water erupted into tiny blossoms made of water.

“It's beautiful isn't it?” Ginny asked.

Harry nodded and leaned forward taking Ginny's face gently in his hands. Slowly he began to kiss her but something wasn't right.

“What? What's the matter? Harry asked.

“Nothing…” Ginny said puzzled.

Harry smiled and leaned back in to kiss her but it just felt wrong to Ginny. The kiss was empty of passion and emotion. Ginny realised that she wanted to be kissing Draco and not Harry.

Suddenly the kiss changed and Ginny realised that it was Draco kissing her and not Harry. His hands wrapped around her pulling her close. She sighed happily and kissed him fervently as the passion took over.

Ginny woke up startled. “What is wrong with me? Am I…am I falling for Malfoy?”
