All I Want to Do
She runs into Harry at Diagon Alley when she went shopping to get something nice for Draco. He corners her-and he’s sober- and tries to convince her to come back to him. He tells her that he still loves her. She refuses and walks away not knowing if she did the right thing.
I don’t want to get up baby,
Let’s turn off the phone
I don’t want to go to work today
Or even put my makeup on
I inhaled the fresh sent of his cologne, and smiled knowingly. Last night had been amazing, I nestled my head further into the little nook under his arm and rested my arm on his bare chest. Things had changed so much, so quickly.
I didn’t even recognize the person I had become. A month ago I had been a cranky, over worked bitch. Now I constantly felt on air. I still hadn’t returned from work, and I had no intention of going back anytime soon. I didn’t really need to and I didn’t love my job.
There are always those few people who live for their work because it describes them, first of all I did not want my work to describe me, and secondly I didn’t even love being a Healer, I honestly just went because it paid the bills, but Draco has reassured me many times that I didn’t need to work if I didn’t want to; he had said what was his was mine too.
It was all moving too fast, I mean it wasn’t like we were getting married or anything; we just ate together, slept together, and lived together. That was completely normal after a month, right? After my dysfunctional relationships I didn’t even remotely know what normal was. And as I sat there lying in Draco Malfoy’s arms I realized something.
I didn’t give a damn, it could be printed in the Prophet for all I care! I was in love with someone, and I didn’t care who knew. Wait.
My brain came to a complete halt. I was in love with Draco Malfoy?
I’ve got better things to do
Than my todo list anyway
Hide under the covers
And waste away the day
I couldn’t wipe the shocked expression off my face for anything, I felt Draco stir and I tried to think of something else. I mean, surely I wasn’t in love with Draco, we had only been together a month. It wasn’t even possible to fall in love with someone in a month, was it?
“Good morning love,” Draco whispered kissing me on my forehead.
Yeah, love I thought.
“Good morning baby,” I chuckled at his half awake expression. “What do you want to do today?”
He shrugged his shoulders, I laughed out loud, “Are you even awake?” He groaned in reply. I shook my head laughing, “Alright then, I’ll just get ready.
“No...” He groaned as he wrapped his arms around my waist keeping me firmly at his side.
“Draco, I need to get up and talk to my family today.” I sighed, thinking of the horrible consequences that may happen to me.
“Today?”
“Yes, today. I need to get it over with.” I replied, struggling against his body trying to get free.
“Alright,” He sighed releasing me.
Let’s just lay here and be lazy,
Baby drive me crazy
All I want to do
All I want to do, Is love you
As I put on my coat I watched Draco out of the corner of my eye. He was sitting up in bed reading a book I didn’t recognize the title to. “Alright, I’m gone, I’ll be back in a couple hours.”
“Sure,” Draco replied not taking his eyes of the book.
I furrowed my eyebrows; he didn’t even pay attention to what I had just said. I walked over to where Draco was lying smiling as the clicking of my heels achieved half his attention.
I sat down on the edge of the bed and grabbed Draco’s book careful not to lose his page before I grabbed him behind his neck and kissed him deeply.
“See ya,” I grinned as I stood leaving Draco wanting more.
“You evil, evil, little red head.” Draco glared, but he wasn’t able to keep the smile off his face.
“Let’s keep it that way,” I laughed as I closed the door behind me.
I got my whole life to change the world
And climb the ladders
Looking at you looking at me
Is the only thing that matters
My breath caught in my throat as I stood outside the gate of the Burrow. I hadn’t been here in months. And by now every single member of my family would be aware of what happened between Harry and I, but none would know the details.
I inhaled and exhaled a few times trying to clam my nerves before I took the plunge and opened the gate alarming everyone inside of my presence.
“Ginny?” My heard my mother yell clearly surprised as I entered the kitchen.
“Hey mom,” I replied glumly before walking further into the kitchen. She just stared at me in shock.
I kicked the floor loosely with my feet as I felt the tension in the air increase. “I came to talk.”
She just continued to stare, “Well you should be talking. I mean you just walked out on Harry, and Ron is so distraught he hasn`t talked to us in weeks. I haven’t even seen Harry, or Hermione for that matter, but where have you been young lady?”
I felt my blood boil. She was making it out like it was my entire fault. “Ok first, I am a grown woman; so don’t talk to me like I’m five. Secondly, Harry was sleeping with someone else.”
“Oh,” was her reply.
“With Hermione,” I finished lamely.
“What!” My mother screeched dropping the bowl she was holding. I winced at the noise she was creating. I only caught a few words here and there, but most were vulgar and somewhat offending.
“MOM!” I yelled over her questions, comments and screams. She turned to look at me with surprise, “Just relax, Ron knows, and I’m with someone else now. Harry and I weren’t meant to be that’s it. Don’t kill Harry....or Hermione,” I added as an afterthought.
“Oh, Ginny!” she suddenly cried, almost unaware that I knew. “I am so sorry honey.” She wrapped her arms around me, and I hugged her back, it felt good.
“I know mom, it was a shock, but I should have seen it coming.” I finished, as she stepped back to look me over. “I’m happy now.” I smiled, “I want you to know that, I am with a great guy, and I am happy.”
“Of course dear, whatever makes you happy,” she turned around and with a flick of her wand the broken bowl was mended and sitting neatly on the table, as if nothing had ever happened. “So,” She added slyly, “who’s the guy?”
“Mom,” I groaned sitting down at the table suddenly embarrassed.
“Well?” She prodded still hustling around the kitchen preparing for dinner tonight.
“I don’t want to say,” I told her smiling at her reaction.
“You don’t want to tell your only mother who is making my only daughter happy?” She questioned me cocking her head to one side.
I tried to keep the smirk off my face, “No.” The look on her face had been worth the few seconds wait. I started laughing, “I will tell you eventually Mom, and I can guarantee you’ll be the first to know.”
“Fine then, I can wait, and good. I should be the first to know.” She told me slightly disappointed that I hadn’t mentioned who the guy was.
I shook my head, “I should be going Mom. I have some running around today; I haven’t been out and about in awhile.” I stood, grabbing my purse off the table as I did so.
“Really?” She asked slyly trying keeping a smirk off her own off her face.
“Mom,” I groaned, it seemed like that’s all she thought I did was bug me. “I’m leaving now!” I called to her as I opened the door.
“Bye Ginny, stop by again or I’ll have to send a search party for you.” She yelled back.
I heard the clanking of some pots fall, and shook my head, “Sure thing Mom!”
Come a little closer baby,
We can talk without the words
Hang a sign on the door,
Please do not disturb
A few hours later, I had most of my shopping finished, with only one stop to go. I blushed as I entered Lamoure, the lingerie store in Diagon Alley. I just needed to pick up a few new outfits. I looked at the display in the window and grinned at the black and blue corset with matching panties.
I went over and picked out my size in both the corset and the panties, I had been to this store quite a few times, so after my first measurement I knew my size by heart.
“My I help you with anything Miss.?” I heard a way-too-happy saleslady ask. I gazed around the store, I still needed a few more things.
“Yes, please, I would like this, and a few other things.”I replied.
“Sure thing Miss.” She smiled, “Let me help you.”
Forty-five minutes later I put my sunglasses back on and left the store. As soon as I turned the corner leading away from the store I walked into a tall all-too-familiar figure.
“Harry?” I gasped, as I regained my balance.
Let’s just lay here and be lazy,
Baby drive me crazy
All I want to do
All I want to do, is love you
“Ginny?” He asked, not fully believing it was me, “Merlin, am I glad to see you.”
“Well I can’t say the same for me.” I spat trying to get around him.
“Ginny!” Harry called trying to stop me, “Please, I’m sorry. Talk to me, we can make this work.”
I stopped mid-step. Did he really just say that? “Are you kidding me Harry? You chose her. You made that pretty clear when you didn’t come after me. You’ve had your chance, and you wasted it.”
“Ginny, please!” Harry started to beg, grabbing onto my shoulders, “I am so sorry. I thought I’d give you space, I was so wrong. I love you. Please don’t leave me.”
I stood there, in the arms of my ex-fiancé stuttering for words. “Harry...” Before I could finish my sentence I felt his lips against my own. I felt his hands in my hair, and to say the least I got caught up in the moment. I kissed back. I was kissing Harry...while I was with Draco.
All I really want to do,
All I really want to do,
All I really want to do is love you,
Love you, love you
The way his hands felt against my skin brought me back to the days before Draco, before Hermione, before the lies, before we broke up. And I missed those days. I broke away from the kiss, “Harry,” I whispered not knowing what to say. The only time in my life when I am short for words and it has to happen now!
“Ginny, I love you.” Harry told me while cupping my face in between his hands.
“I...I...I love you to Harry,” I replied not looking him in the eyes, I loved him, and I loved Draco. What the hell was I going to do?
“Come back Ginny, come back,” Harry whispered against my ear.
“I can’t.”
“Why?” Harry asked pulling back suddenly. “You love me, I love you.”
“I cannot get hurt again.” I whispered shaking my head.
“I won’t hurt you, Gin. I promise,” Harry smiled.
“You said that the first time, how do I not know that you’ll do it again?”
“I promise Gin, that’s all I can offer.” Harry pleaded.
“I have to go...think.” I answered turning around.
“I’ll talk to you soon Gin!” Harry called after me.
What the hell had I gotten myself into? I loved Harry, but I loved Draco. I had good history with Harry and bad history with Draco. But Harry hurt me, Draco hasn’t. I apparated home and the moment I walked through the door I felt myself being enveloped in a tight hug.
“Oh I missed you so much Ginny!” Draco laughed as he danced around the entrance hall still holding on to me. “I love you so much!”
Man, he knows how to make a woman feel guilty. “I love you to Draco, but are...are you ok?” I asked pulling back a bit, he seemed...off.
“I’m stupendous Ginny! Why?” Draco responded also pulling back a bit.
“No reason. Just curious as to why you’re so happy.”
“Ahh, that my love is something you are about to find out. Follow me.” Draco grabbed my hand and pulled me around the corner and into the main dining hall.
I gasped at my surroundings. I knew that this room was nice, but wow. It was beautiful, from the sparkling chandelier hanging above the table to the red themed dining set. It was perfect.
“And these are for you my lady,” Draco announced pulling a bouquet of red roses from behind his back.
“Aww...” I started, “Draco, this is amazing! You didn’t have to do all of this just for me!”
“Ah, but I wanted to. That’s what you do when you’re in love. You do everything to please the other.” Draco smiled while pulling out a chair for me.
It was true, that is what he did and Harry had never done that before. I loved Draco, with all my heart, and even though we haven’t been together that long I loved him more than I did Harry. “Too true,” I smiled back.
“A toast!” Draco announced, “To the person I love most in the entire world, to Ginny!”
“And to the person I love most in the entire world, to Draco!” I finished smiling. I love Draco more, Harry is out of the picture for good. I think...
Come a little closer baby,
We can talk without the words
Hang a sign on the door, please do not,
Please do not, please do not, Please do not disturb
As I lay naked in bed that night I wondered if I made the right choice. I mean Draco was a gentleman, he was nice, fun to be around, and I loved him, but with Harry the only reason I needed was that I loved him.
I closed my eyes and mentally groaned. Will I always love Harry just to complicate things? I mean, I made the right choice by staying with Draco. Right?
I rolled over and pondered over my decision a bit more. Should I at least tell Draco that I met up with Harry today? Or should I even tell him that I still love him? He deserves to know the truth, I owe him that much. Right?
When I lay down in the evening all
I really want to do,
When I wake up, when I wake up in the morning baby,
All I really want to do
I rolled over and poked a sleeping Draco, “Honey, I need to tell you something important.” I whispered sitting up and leaning against the headboard.
“In the morning,” Draco mumbled back.
“I saw Harry today,” I blurted it out not wanting to carry on this conversation longer than necessary.
That got his attention. He sat straight up, “What?”
“I saw Harry today,” I repeated, “and I told him I still loved him.”
