Chapter 5
Revenge, at first though sweet,
Bitter ere long back on itself recoils.
- John Milton, Paradise Lost
"It's the perfect day for a Quidditch match folks! No wind, the sun is shining and the sky is
as blue as I've ever seen it," Lee Jordan yelled into the speaker. He'd been announcing Quidditch
games since his first year at Hogwarts and he wasn't about to let up. "First onto the field are the
Slytherins! Captain and Seeker, Draco Malfoy, leads his team onto the field with added arrogance."
"Mr. Jordan," McGonagall warned and Lee rolled his eyes.
"Today's match is a real no clue folks. After Ron Weasley and Harry Potter were disqualified
from playing by a certain Potions Master, Dennis Creevey and Ginny Weasley will be taking their
places. Dennis is said to have a good eye and a strong arm, the fans are saying that he'll be even
better off because his brother will be beating alongside him in this match. Ginny however, none of
the fans are pleased with her. Will she be a good enough Seeker to catch the Golden Snitch before
Malfoy? We'll find out in today's game!"
As soon as Lee finished the Gryffindor team entered the field, none looked happy to be
there. Ginny kept getting evil looks from Colin and Dennis was following his older brother's actions by
giving her a cold shoulder. They mounted their brooms along with the Slytherins and kicked off the
ground into the air.
"And Madame Hooch enters the field to throw up the balls!"
"I want a nice clean game," Madame Hooch yelled at the players above her. "That includes
all of you!" she yelled pointedly at the Slytherins. A moment later, she blew her whistle and released
all the balls into the air.
"And after the Quaffle has been launched, it is closely followed by the Golden Snitch and
the two Bludgers. First to grab the Quaffle is Gryffindor Chaser Lavender Brown, who passes it
immediately to an open Seamus Finnigan. Seamus is shooting down the playing field and, OH! Blaise
Zabini, a Slytherin Chaser has snatched the Quaffle from him."
Above all the players were Ginny and Draco, each roaming around looking closely for the
Snitch. Every once in awhile Ginny would catch sight of the Snitch but it would disappear a moment
later.
Lee Jordan was up in his seat shouting something and Ginny's attention was momentarily
pulled away.
"And what a horrible ploy by the Slytherin team! Pansy Parkinson and Malcolm Baddock,
two Chasers just slammed into Gryffindor Chaser Parvati Patel! Parvati drops the Quaffle and it's
caught by Blaise who manages to get it past Dean Thomas the Gryffindor Keeper, to score ten
points for Slytherin!" Lee yelled, before punching the correct button to let Slytherin have the ten
points scored.
"OH! Vincent Crabbe, a Slytherin Beater just took a nasty blow to the head by an over
excited Bludger. It looks like Gregory Goyle, the other Slytherin Beater will be managing the rest of
this game by himself."
Ginny saw the streak of gold just above Goyle's head as he was beating away another
Bludger. She gripped her broom and shot forward as fast as she could.
"Looks like Ginny has spotted the Snitch! She's headed straight for Goyle!" Lee yelled
excitedly.
Goyle spun around to see Ginny coming towards him and at the same time, the same
Bludger that had hit Crabbe was coming at him. Ginny saw the look in Goyle's eyes but it was too late
for her to stop. Goyle pelted the Bludger straight at her.
Ginny feinted and swerved, but the bludger wasn't about to leave her alone. The only thing
she was thinking, was where were Colin and Dennis?
The Creevey brothers were batting away the other Bludger and seemed to be turning blind
eyes to Ginny's predicament.
In the stands the Gryffindors were looking uncomfortable. They knew what was happening
and yet none seemed to want to be the first to speak. From across the stadium the shouts of two
voices were heard. It was Liz and Anthea, screaming at Colin and his brother to help out Ginny. Lee
Jordan caught win of their screaming and started to scream himself.
"Ginny Weasley is being chased by a Bludger and the Creeveys aren't even helping her.
Come on Gryffindor Beaters! Move your butts!" he yelled into the speaker before continuing to
comment on the other players.
It was too late, Ginny saw Draco spot the Snitch and she knew she couldn't lose this game
to him. Making a fist with her left hand and bracing herself, she stopped and swung her arm out at
the Bludger. A resounding crack rung in Ginny's ears, but the excited Bludger seemed to be back to
chasing other players and Ginny shot towards the Snitch, the left arm dangling limply at her side.
She caught up with Draco a moment later and they were both angling off their brooms
reaching for the snitch.
"Impressive Weasley, no hands is certainly a way to win the crowd, but not to grab the
Snitch," Draco sneered as he used his own left hand to lean further on his broom.
Ginny was close to tears from the pain in her arm but she wasn't about to give up. She
wrapped one leg around the broom, and used her other knee to make her broom lean forward.
Draco chuckled beside her, "Wow, leg tricks too, you should join the circus Weasley."
Ginny gritted her teeth as her arm banged against her side. She knew there was only one
way to win this and she hoped to god she'd live through it.
She pushed herself off her broom and stretched her hand out as far as she could. And the
last thing she heard before darkness consumed her were hundreds of screaming voices.

"I told you! She isn't awake yet so you'll have to come back later."
Ginny opened her eyes to find herself in the Hospital Wing. Then it registered that someone
was here to visit her and Madame Pomfrey was sending them away!
"I'm awake!" she nearly yelled.
The curtains around her parted to admit Madame Pomfrey, followed closely by Liz and
Anthea.
"Ten minutes girls," Madame Pomfrey ordered after she'd checked Ginny over a little.
As soon as Madame Pomfrey left Anthea and Liz each slid a chair up beside Ginny's bed.
"How're you feeling? Man, no one knew what had happened! You just sorta looked like you'd
fallen off your broom. Most people thought Malfoy pushed you but he swears he didn't even touch
you," Liz gossiped quickly.
Anthea smiled and shook her head as Liz spoke, "So what did happen Ginny? Pomfrey tells
us you had a broken arm, and as near as I can tell, that happened when the Bludger was chasing
you."
Ginny nodded and closed her eyes. "The Bludger wouldn't stop chasing me and I saw that
Malfoy was going for the Snitch so I just hit the Bludger with my arm to make it go away. Then when
Draco and I were going for the Snitch I could see him going closer and closer so I did the only thing I
could think of and I jumped off my broom, hand reaching out for the Snitch," she frowned in thought
and opened her eyes, "But everything after that is a blank. Did you guys see what happened?"
Liz had a small smile on her face but shook her head. Anthea nodded and spoke quickly,
"Well, you fell off your broom and everyone was screaming and jumping up to get a better look, so Liz
and I didn't see much til it was all over. But you were on the ground holding the Snitch in your fingers
with Malfoy holding you in his arms. It was really quite amazing. Madame Hooch tried to pry the
Snitch from your fingers but you wouldn't let it go! Finally they got Dumbledore down there and
preformed some spell to make you let go of it. Then Madame Pomfrey came out with a stretcher and
she tried to make Draco let go of you but he wouldn't either! He just walked off the field with you in
his arms and brought you to the Hospital Wing himself."
Ginny nodded thoughtfully before Madame Pomfrey poked her head in to tell Anthea and Liz
that their time was up.
Liz and Anthea said their farewells quickly before rushing out of the Hospital Wing. As Liz
walked beside Anthea into the hall she muttered. "You heard her say his first name right?"
Anthea nodded quickly with a knowing smile on her face before she and Liz burst into
laughter and raced towards the Great Hall to tell everyone that Ginny was okay.

Ginny was sleeping lightly when the sound of metal moving across metal made her wake
up with a start. Using her good arm she propped herself up in bed and glanced around. Her eyes
settled on him in an instant and her breath was caught in her throat.
"Looks like that Gryffindor courage served you well today, Virginia," he said quietly as he
moved up beside her bed.
Ginny nodded silently, for some reason her mind was blank and she couldn't keep her eyes
off of him. Her hands ached to touch him but she didn't know how to do what she wanted.
"You know you could've died if I wasn't there," he murmured as he sat down on the bed
looking intently at her. "At least I'm the school hero this time and not Potter." He was leaning over,
inches away from her face and her breathing was becoming ragged.
"Draco..." she whispered a moment before he brushed his lips across hers.
The contact was so light that Ginny was sure that it was all a dream. That thought firmly in
place, she wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled Draco further onto her bed and on top of
her. She crushed her own lips aggresively against his as she sought something she didn't know how
to get.
Draco groaned as Ginny kissed him. He hadn't expected any of this when he came to the
Hospital Wing. He'd expected himself to be mocking and self-centered. But, when he'd seen her in
the bed his heart had started skipping and his instincts had taken over. Ginny's small hands were
flitting around inside his cloak, trying to find the ties of his shirt. Using his tongue, he parted Ginny's
lips and invaded her mouth. Her small gasp of surprise was almost enough to drive him insane and
she tasted like chocolates and something else that could only belong to Ginny. His own hands were
cupping her face, and then one found its way down cup her breast. When he passed his thumb across
her nipple it perked up to attention and Ginny's body seemed to be lifting off the bed towards his
caress.
Ginny had never felt anything like it before, it was like her whole body was being consumed
by fire. She was arching her back against Draco's skillful hand. She'd managed to find the ties to his
shirt and just about ripped them apart in her efforts to touch his skin. Moments later she splayed her
hands across his chest, feeling every curve. She wound her arms around to feel his back and she could
feel his muscles contracting.
Draco had begun unbuttoning her blouse when they both heard Madame Pomfrey's door
opening in the distance. Both froze, Draco groaned before pulling himself off of Ginny. She looked
flushed and perfectly ready for him, but Draco knew better then to trust that. He wanted her to want
him. He wanted her to come to him. He just hoped that by giving up this chance he wasn't going to
have to wait for forever.
Ginny watched as Draco began tying up his shirt again and realized that whatever had
overtaken them was over. She buttoned her own shirt up quickly and pulled her covers up to her
shoulders.
"Draco?" she whispered quietly.
He looked up at her quickly, "Yes?"
"I'm not sleeping am I?"
"Afraid not Virginia, but this won't go any further. I lost my senses for a moment.
Goodnight." he said quickly before sneaking back out of the Hospital Wing.
Ginny couldn't believe it, but when he'd denied any further encounters, something in her
broke and she felt close to tears. 'It can't be,' she thought. She was already wishing the Madame
Pomfrey hadn't started to move around as she slumped back into her pillow and fell into a restless
sleep.
