"Blaise shrugged and turned back to his bowl of ice cream. “Actually, I was already here,” he replied. “So I didn’t technically sneak up on you.”"

hahahaha i love Blaise :)

Author's Response: Oh, yes! Blaise is awesome! Thanks for reviewing!

A wonderful chapter. Ginny is giving me a bit of a migraine though. She had bloody Draco Malfoy putting her finger in his mouth - 'she felt his tongue run over her finger'. Then he kissed it after she had healed it and she....ran. Of course he apologized later, someone running away after you kiss them (even their finger) generally is not a good sign. Love the Draco/Blaise interaction.

He was acting crazy and she's still acting crazy; their never going to kiss :(

Author's Response: Lol! My aren't you optimistic! Thanks for reviewing!

Following the incident with Blaise, Ginny avoided Draco as much as she could. They saw each other at meals and occasionally in the library, but for the most part, over the next few days, she managed to be by herself. This made her realize just how much they’d been around each other.

Well, finally!
i thought she would never realize!
;P
But seriously, how can she hope to live with him[saying like that sounds so much more romantic] and never cross pathes with him?
besides...it's Murphy's law, if she's avoiding him, she'll only see him more!
;P

The day was nice, so she slipped her wand into her pocket and headed out to the garden

Oh dang!
She remered to take her wand this time!

She glanced over the shelves and sighed. What she wouldn’t give for a good novel. Reading was a fail-safe way to get her mind off of things, but the boring, informative books of the Malfoy library just didn’t cut it.

I do that all the time: have you seen my bookslehves in facebook?[the picture of the ones in my bedroom]?
It's just all the cheesy sweet, cute romsnce you can get!
=D

She curled up on a nearby chair and began to read, her thoughts continuously drifting to times Draco had been in here with her. “Git,” she mumbled.
“You wouldn’t happen to be talking about me, would you?” came a soft drawl from behind her chair.
Ginny jumped and gave a small squeak of surprise as her index finger dragged along the edge of her page. “Malfoy!” she exclaimed, holding up her hand to inspect the spot of blood that was swelling on the tip of her finger. “Stop sneaking up on me like that!”

hehehe, i'm so glad to see that despite the fact he's an in love fool who usually doesn't know how to act around her[mostly her fault for always thinking he's just toying with her or has other intentions], he still hasn't lost his sneaky ways, like walking around without making a sonud and scaring the day lights out of her.

Then he looked up at her and his eyes were warmer than she’d ever seen then. He lifted her finger and put the tip of it in his mouth. At that moment, Ginny’s heart stopped.

Oh God!
Don't worry, my heart skipped a beat as well.
PLus, i think all this breath holding thing is starting to affect my brain.
i can't seem to breathe when he does things like that.
i feel my hands shaking right now, like some invisible force held them just like Draco did.
WOW!

She wanted to ask him what he was doing, but she felt his tongue run over her finger and found that she couldn’t think of the right words.

Oh God, oh God, oh God!
I'm melting here, i feel like my bones turned into hot butter.
THAT is serisouly erotic!
I had to read 7 times SEVEN!!!! just to make sure i wasn't imagining it.
Finger licking?
Dog's doing.
But like this?Totally hot and erotic and makes you get tingles up and down your spine.
WOw!


“Please stop,” she finally managed to whisper.
AAAWWW...i know that it may sond insane but that was so cute!
I'm reading this phrase over and over thinking about all the diferent ways she can whisper this.
i think i finally got it down so now i can continue reading[it took about 12 to 15 times,but it had to be perfect to give the right mood]


Fully flustered, her heart trying to climb up her throat and out her mouth, Ginny pulled out her wand and pointed it at her finger.

I'm feeling like that too.
=)

See??
i told you having her wand with her would be a bad thing!
At least she didn't have a sudden urge to hex him away...

“Ep- Episky,” she muttered. She felt a tiny tingle as the cut vanished.

AWWW!
i loved how she stuttered!
It made evrything so much more believable!
=D
[take me for instance: i wouldn't even be able to speak, least of all remember the spell]


Malfoy smiled down at the finger, very pink in comparison to his pale skin. “Good as new,” he said. Then he pulled it back to his mouth and kissed it.
Ginny gasped as more shocks rippled through her stomach.

YAY!
Malfoy saves the day!
what does she think she's doing?
pulling away her finger like that?
No ma'am!
Draco will have none of that!
=DD
Doesn't that make you love him ven more?
=DDD

She got an odd picture of his lips pressed against her own.

Well, she's kinda slow if it took all this time to picture those perfect lips on hers...right now she should be thinking about them all over her body...


She jumped up and ran from the room so fast that her chair fell over. She ran all the way to the kitchen without stopping, figuring he wouldn’t be able to find her there. The house-elves didn’t look up when she burst in.

Silly silly girl...can't you see that just makes you even more fun to play with, before the actual time when there'll be no more games and be just the 2 of you?


“What’s impossible?” asked a familiar voice.
Ginny whirled around and slipped out of her chair. “What is it with people and sneaking up on me?” she said as she stood back up.
Blaise shrugged and turned back to his bowl of ice cream. “Actually, I was already here,” he replied. “So I didn’t technically sneak up on you.”
“You were here that whole time?” Ginny asked in surprise. How had she not seen him? What had he seen?
“Yep,” Blaise said.

POOR GIN!
It reminded me of 27 dresses, when Catherine Heigl decides to get out in the aley of the night club an scream her anger out...she starts with screeching the word F*CK and tehn gets worst.
When she composes herself, she realizes she's NOT out in the alley, but in the doorway of a beautifully decorated room, whih is full of guests...and a WEDDING! is taking place!

THAT'S how i picture that Gin must have felt!
=S
Poor poor Gin!
;P


Then the door opened and Draco and Blaise came in.
“You were wrong,” Blaise stated. “He was out in the hall brooding.”
Draco smirked down at her. “You’ve really got issues, you know,” he said. “You’ve tried to suffocate yourself, rip your hair out, cut your finger off, and now you’re trying to knock your brains out.”

*SNORTS!*
My mother thinks i'm the most unlady like creature she has ever seen.
When i'm not cackling i'm snorting or getting mad at the computer.
Not to mention the times when[her words, not mine] i start pulling demented faces and sighing like an stupid girl who just talked to her crush and had him talking back.
Yes, well, i told her it was all your fault!
^,~


But seriously, Draco's last line?
DEFINATELY going to history[and to my quote book!]
I just loved it!
=D



“What exactly happened in the library?” Blaise wanted to know.
Draco related the story with a smile on his face.

i love seeing them this way, especially Draco.
That smile on his lips make him such an ordinary guy.
THey are just two friends talking about an experience with a girl!
It's really sweet to see him this way!
=D
I loved it!


Blaise chuckled. “Oh, Draco, Draco, Draco,” he said, shaking his head.
“Oh, what, what, what?” Draco asked, irritated and not in the mood for his friend’s jokes.

*Snorts*
You're just great with the dialogue between these two, despite all the body harm references.
;P


“You shouldn’t have apologized like that,” was the reply. “Say you’re sorry for offending her, but not that you didn’t mean what you did. For being so smart, you really are quite stupid.”

Now, THAT is some very useful advice!
=)
I like when he's like that[in a Draco's real friend way], because really, i usually like Blaise even if he's doing something stupid!


I want this to work out. You need a woman and she’s practically perfect for you.”
“Well, thanks,” Draco said sarcastically. “Do you have any useful suggestions?”
Blaise sighed and swung his arms forwards, then let them fall back to his sides. “Nope. Sorry, mate. You’re on your own with this one.”
Draco groaned. “You’re a lot of help. Can’t get you to mind your own business, but then when I actually want your advice, you have none.
“Well, you could always talk to her about it and hope for the best,” Blaise replied. “But that’s not nearly as exciting and the risk of failure is quite a bit higher. Not to mention complete mortification if she doesn’t reciprocate.”

See what i'm talking about?
You're just perfect to write about them, i usually forget they are not real people and just think that you were listening in on them.
=D


“Am I actually giving you a migraine?”
Draco shook his head. “It’s just a headache. And if it were a migraine it would be Ginny’s fault. Just for being so bloody confusing.”

Ok, so...when did Draco started thinking of and talking about Gin as "Ginny"?
i don't remember him doing that last chapter...



P.S. To any guys who may be reading... Never ever apologize to a girl for kissing her. Ever. It sends a very bad impression of your opinion of her. Just a little tip. ;)

oK, so i have the strangest habit of only reading the fic AFTER reading the Author's Note and when i read this i was like: "Oh Lord! YES!!! he's gonna do it! He's ACTUALLY gonna kiss her!
Plus, to make everythign even more perfect, I was the first reviewer she thanked this time!
The kiss chapter had ME! as the first reviewer who was thanked!
THis is so exciting!"

And now that i've finished reading this i'm like: He kissed her finger!!!
He kissed her bloody FINGER!!!!
Sure, it was a very erotic scene and have me feeling tingles up and down my spine but still...for the note i was hoping for an actual, hot, open mouthed kiss that would end up with him pulling her on top of him[she would be straddling him] or they would be in the couch and he would be all over her, his hands nearly in her breasts and lying on top of her, with her legs around his hips and one of her legs would be on top of his tight or bum, pulling him to her...then alarm signs would go off in his head,or an owl would tap the window[Blaise walking in wouldn't allow the apologising] and then he would push her away and apologise a million f times, call himself stupid and say a stream of "fuck, fuck, fuck" and she would cry and go away for thinking he regreted the kiss and that he hasn't changed at all and he's still disgusted with the thought she's a Weasley and all that.

Anyway...i know their feelings and relationship are still somewhat shallow and that a mere brush of lips to her cheeck would probably be WAAAAY too much, but i was seriously hoping for a kiss, even if was just to clean off some chocolate from her face...



I still managed to really enjoy this chapter, and i laughed a lot!
I tried to control myself and not quote too many lines [mostly i managed] but when it got to Blaise's line it was simply impossible...
This was incredibly great Beth!
I really enjoyed but this time you can't blame me for saying: the chapter was short. Even if you forget the fact that you could write a 10 thousand pages book and i would still want more.
Can you please tell me the next chapter is out soon?
I think some time between the next 3 chapters would be a perfect time for their kiss.
After all the next chapter is the apology for apologising...or an explanation to what he was apologising FOR...by the way, if she were to lose her voice again [and her wand] he could probably tell her he wasn't apologising for this...and then when she looks up, he kisses her, even if it's just in the cheek.
ALthough i gotta say, i had a friend who was much like Draco[that's one of the greatest compliments you can give a guy] and he had the habit of kissing me not in the cheek[like we brazilians usually do] but in the neck, or the shoulder, or just in between.
The point to that is: There could be a ball where they dance and he kisses her like that, or he could just kiss her like that period.
=D

*desperate voice*
Please give us a kiss Beth!
We need it!
THEY need it!



Also...when is the next chapter coming out?
Because starting next week i have a "chocolate based treats" course and i can't miss a day and it takes ALL of my afternoon and i don't wanna miss a second of this.
SO could the updates please come sooner?
I'll do your real work for you, i'll do your groceries, i'll clean up the place for you, just please don't let real life get in the way of the fic!
='(


kisses

Author's Response: Okay, so you totally fan-girl over my updates, and then I totally fan-girl over your reviews! What a team! Lol! ;) I know this chapter was short, I'm sorry. I came down with a touch of the flu (I know, poor excuse) and wasn't really in the mood to try and lengthen it. I do, however, think that you're going to enjoy the next few chapters, which I will try to make longer, just for you! ;) You mentioned the dialogue between Draco and Blaise... I just find the two of them so easy to write, particularly when they're together, so it just comes naturally. Almost as if I were standing there listening in on their conversation. I just find it so easy to get into Draco's head and understand what he's thinking and Blaise is just Blaise and super-awesome in all of his Blaise-ness! Lol! I'll be posting the next chapter tomorrow. Real life doesn't get in the way of that. I always type while I'm helping my little brother and sister with their schoolwork (they're homeschooled)... that's my routine. I would post every day, but three days out of the week I'm away from home, so... Anyway, thanks so much for the brilliant review! Beware of the not breathing thing, 'cause you're my favourite! Don't want you to addle your brains too bad! ;)

ohhhh poor little cofused draco. i love him to bits i really do but i think he should just snog her senseless and see where it goes from there. brilliant chapter as always. i love the D/G interaction and i would melt if draco had my finger in his mouth too so i get the ginny overreaction all too well. any blaise is a good blaise so i'm happy there. loving that the updates are coming more frequently and i cant wait for the next one :D

Author's Response: Thanks so much! I'll be posting again soon, and I hope that you like the rest of the story as well!

Wow! I got lucky for cathching all these great chapters in one day! Thanks for the GREAT ( I think this was your best one...it was sooo tension filled and very sexy! You are officially my best friend lol

Author's Response: Lol! So glad I could please you with this! Thanks for reviewing!

Malfoy smiled down at the finger, very pink in comparison to his pale skin. “Good as new,” he said. Then he pulled it back to his mouth and kissed it.

JT sighed, she shivered, she looked at her own, un-pink thumb sadly, and she FREAKING WISHED SHE WAS GINNY!

“I’m sorry about that,” Draco said. “In the library. I don’t know what I was thinking.”

And then she wanted to hit Draco on the head. Except she didn't because it would be harmful to his beautiful downy blond head and would ruin the stylish, sweeping locks that he has in perfect formation.

Conclusion: JT is dying to see them kiss! And maybe something more...but she'll take baby steps and pray for the kiss first, so that it may lead to naughtier things.

Conclusion 2: JT is ready to stop talking about herself in third person.

Seriously, I loved the adorable interaction between D and G. Soul mates.....*sighs* please update soon, and good job!

XOXO, JT

Author's Response: Lol! That was such a funny review! You literally had me in stitches! Thanks so much for reviewing! I'll be posting the next chapter soon and I hope you like it!
