A Stroll In Your Shoes

15. Deleted Scenes...



A/N: There were quite a few scenes in this story that I really loved but ended up cutting to make things flow better. Anyway now that the story is finished I've decided to do a sort of deleted scenes page, where you can see all the scenes that I wrote but ended up taking out.

Enjoy!

DELETED SCENES

Scene 1:

This scene happened during the Quidditch game, Gryffindor VS Slytherin. Really, I wanted to put it in there because people always seem to have Ginny falling off her broom and Draco catching her. Read on to find out what happens.

Ginny was swooping round the pitch, her eyes searching for the ever-allusive glint of gold. She swerved past Draco, who was clutching the quaffle, and started heading in the other direction, when a loud shriek sounded out through the air.

Ginny turned her head and gasped as she saw Draco plummeting to the ground, as he was knocked off his broom by a bludger.

“MY BODY!!” Ginny shouted losing her head completely and dived swiftly towards the falling Draco. “Gotcha.” Ginny grinned, as she caught Draco in her arms.

He looked at her slightly dazed, “Weasley?” He said dizzily.

“You alright?” Ginny asked concerned.

Draco nodded and looked around. The whole stands were applauding and Luna's dreamy voice sounded over the speaker, “It seems that Draco Malfoy has his caught his damsel in distress, I wonder if he will kiss her?”

Ginny blushed and looked away from Draco's smirk. “You can get back on your broom now.” Ginny said embarrassed.

Draco nodded and shifted slightly, causing a strange heat to run through Ginny's body. She looked down and gasped at where his hand was. “Erm, Malfoy…”

Draco looked at her flushed face and looked down and quickly took his hand away. “Sorry…” he trailed off, feeling just as embarrassed and quickly clambered back on to his broom.

Scene 2:

This scene happens just before Ginny is about to go to the library to find Draco and she meets Blaise. I was going to put it there, and I don't really know why I didn't, but you get to see it anyway now.

Blaise walked into the library with the intention of doing some catch up Ancient Runes work, when a girl caught his eye. She was sitting at a table reading a book, her bushy light brown hair spilling over her shoulders. He edged closer and saw her sweet honey brown eyes smiling slightly, as she read something funny in her book.

Blaise let out a breath and walked over. “Granger.” He said jovially and sat down.

“Zabini,” Hermione said stiffly as she put her book down, “What do you want?”

“Nothing but your pleasant company.” Blaise said airily and looked at her book. “Ahh, Hogwarts A History, a very good book, you enjoying it?” He asked conversationally.

Hermione looked at him suspiciously, “You've read Hogwarts A History?”

Blaise nodded, “Why? Is that so surprising?”

Hermione shook her head and looked away to avoid staring at his intensely green eyes.

Silence fell around them and both were beginning to feel uncomfortable, not to mention the odd glances people were giving them.

“So…” Blaise said looking around, “I guess I better go then.”

Hermione nodded and watched him stand up.

“Nice talking to you Granger.” Blaise said cheerfully and walked away.

Hermione could swear she heard him muttering, “Stupid, why do you always have to blow it like that?”

She sighed and shook her head, going back to her book.

Scene 3:

This is the original date with Pansy. I ended up changing this to the more serious date, but I thought you might enjoy reading what I had planned originally.

Ginny walked towards the fountain feeling extremely nervous.

“Draco,” Pansy simpered and walked over, “You're finally here.”

She looked at Ginny expectantly and Ginny began to feel slightly uncomfortable.

She doesn't want me to kiss her does she?

Well Weasley, that is the custom way of greeting for boyfriends and girlfriends.

Oh shutup!

Ginny leaned down and kissed Pansy on the cheek. Pansy smiled and sat down by the fountain tapping the spot beside her and giving a roguish wink.

Ginny sighed inwardly, This girl is disgusting.

Just go and sit next to her, you twit!

Hey, watch it Ferret.

Or you'll do what?

Ginny glared slightly, she could almost picture the smirk on his face right now.

“Draco?” Pansy said surprised, “Why are you glaring at me?”

What?” Ginny exclaimed, “Sorry.”

Now look what you made me do!

You did that yourself.

Pansy huffed slightly and leaned forwards, “Did you miss me today?” She asked, fluttering her eyelashes.

Ginny had to try hard not to snort and smiled, “Sure I did.”

How can you date that?

I could say the same about Potty…

Pansy smiled a sickly sweet smile and ran her hand up Ginny's thigh, “It's been a while Draco…” She purred.

Ginny leaned back slightly, “Yeah…” She said distractedly trying to move Pansy's hands away from her.

“No one is around…” Pansy said suggestively.

“Yeah…WHAT!” Ginny shouted and sprung back from Pansy, causing the Slytherin girl to fall in the fountain.

“Ugh now look what you've done, you-you CLUTZ!” Pansy screeched, her face unbecomingly flushed.

Now you're in for it.

I didn't mean to.

Yeah right.

“Just go away Draco!” Pansy bellowed and stomped off to the castle.

Well that was a complete fiasco.

Yeah, Weasley, you really blew it.

Puh-lease, as if anyone could put up with that horrible clingy cow trying to come on to you all the time!

……..

Okay so maybe you do.

……..

Malfoy?

Oh, he must have gone back to his body already…

Well, I hope you enjoyed the deleted scenes. There were more but I have gotten rid of them and can't remember them.

This really is the end now!
