One Shot~ Both Draco and Ginny are trying to sleep but are unable to. The minds and bodies won't let them forget the other...
A/N: this is my first attempt at Draco/Ginny fanfiction. I normally stick to H/Hr but I heard the song My All by Mariah Carey and it reminded me of this ship. I hope you enjoy and please leave a review to tell me if I did alright. Thanks! ~ Pheniox_Girl
Ginny lay in her bed unable to sleep. For whatever reason tonight her mind would let her forget him. Not only that, her own body refused to let her forget his touch, and the feel of him when he was with her.
God damn you Draco, Even when your gone I can't get you out of my mind...
Only a few miles away another lay in bed, unable to sleep. He to couldn't get the memory of her out of his mind, nor would his body let him forget her touch.
Stop this Draco! You'll only pay for it....
Ginny, frustrated got out of bed and made her way to the kitchen for a cup of tea. Once there she was bombarded by memories of him. Her minds eye showed her the countless times spent there making dinner, getting ready for work, and- she smiled at the memory-the few water fights. Tears filled her eyes.
Oh just for one more night....
Draco rolled out of bad and made his way into his lounge room. Once there he flopped himself on to the couch and put his bare feet on the coffee table. His left foot hit a book that clattered to the ground. He bent down to pick it up and noticed it was a photo album. Their photo album. He opened to the first page to see a picture of them at a Canon's match. He smiled at the memory of watching her cheer her brother on. He turned page after page of memories. He sighed.
What I'd give for one more night....
Ginny made her way to the lounge to read. She would be damned if he would occupy her thoughts all night. She put her mug of tea on the coffee table and went over to the shelf to find a book to read. She found one and sat down on the couch, opening it to the first page. She went to reach for her mug and saw something flutter out of the book onto the ground. She picked it up and saw it was a photograph. She turned it over to see it was a picture of her with him on that day, the day that he had....
Draco continued through the album till her was met with the same picture that Ginny was looking at only a few miles away. It was a picture of them sitting on a bench in their favorite park. He had his arm wrapped around her waist while she flashed her left hand at the camera. Draco sighed again as he dropped his head onto the back of the couch remembering that day....
A couple was walking down a path, hand in hand, when suddenly the man pulled the woman over to a bench on the side. He sat her down be fore he sat himself of the edge of the bench looking very nervous.
"Ginny, I know everyone thinks it's wrong-" the woman opened her mouth to say something, but he held up his hand. "Let me finish. everyone thinks what we have is wrong. I mean look at where I come from, who I was. But I love you, with all I have. If it's wrong-what we have- then I don't want to be right."
"Oh, Draco. I love you too-" the woman started, before the man cut her short again.
"I'm not done. Like I said I don't want to be right. Which is why-" He moved from the bench to his knees before the woman. Her eyes got wide as she realized what was happening and a small 'O' escaped her lips. "Ginny will you make me the luckiest guy, and become my wife?"
The woman had tears streaming down her face as she nodded in response. The man slipped a ring on her finger before he kissed her....
Ginny sat in the lounge playing with the ring on her left hand as she looked at the picture in her lap. Unable to sit anymore she got up and made her way to her bedroom. She returned a few moments later with a pair of jeans and mans sweatshirt on. She dissapparated to the same foot path shown in the picture...
Draco got up a few miles away with the same idea. He threw the album onto the table before he made his way to the door, grabbing a jacket on the way....
Ginny walked to short distance to the bench, taking a seat once she had reached it. She closed her eyes as she thought back to that day. If concentrated she could still smell his smell and feel his hand in hers. She slowly opened her blue eyes to see cool steel gray ones looking back at her. Her eyes got wide as she felt them pick up her left hand and finger her ring.
"Two years and you still wear it?" Draco asked, surprised she still even had it.
"Yes." She said in a tone barely above a whisper.
"Last time we talked you said you had never loved me, and didn't want to see me again. Why keep-and wear- the ring that must remind you of me?" She hung her head and shrugged her shoulders. He took his free hand and put it under her chin, lifting her face to look at him. He dropped her hand and wiped the tears that had escaped down her cheeks.
"Ginny?" He asked.
"Because I lied. I still love you." She sobbed.
"Why? Why did you say you didn't? What happened." He asked confused.
"So many people had told me they saw you around with another woman, that this is what you got for falling in love with a Malfoy. Even Harry and Ron where saying it, reminding me how wrong our relationship was. I didn't believe them of coarse. But then I saw a woman leaving the apartment that day and I knew they had been right. You had been-"She sobbed again." Been seeing someone else. And then all the canceled dates, and other things started making sense and I could take it. That's why-"
"You broke it off. And to hurt me told me you had never loved me. Oh Ginny! I was never seeing anyone else. She was someone I had been working on an assignment with. I just could say anything is all."
"Really?" Ginny asked meekly.
"Really Gin, I love you always have. I could never hurt you like that." With that he gather her into his arms holding her tight. She clung tight to him too, never wanting to let go.
"I love you too Draco." She pulled back and looked into his eyes. She laughed as she said, "If this wrong, then my heart just won't let me be right."
He pulled her back into a tight embrace before getting up and offering her his hand. As they walked away hand in hand he could be heard saying.
"Mine either Gin, mine either."
