Put down your weapons. Take deep breaths.
*Runs Away*
YOU can forget about that!
I'm buying a plane ticket right now to wherever you live!
I'm squeezing the rest of this out of you!!!
How the hell could you do THAT???
Especially since we all know it will take forever until the next update???
It's a good thing the run away coment because i'm this close to hunting you down!!!
Threats aside: this was a great, unnerving chapter, i was so mad and curious and furious and concentrated i yeld at my dog and my maid, plus banged the bedroom door and all the crazy, stressed stuff!
And then you go and leave the most gigantic cliff EVER!!!
=OOO
I'm dying here to see Ginny's REAL reaction, the crying and getting to digest Serena's words plus Draco leaving her and all that!
And Draco's reaction when he realizes he misses her more than he's willing to ackowledge!
oh and how will Serena react? And cissa?
Oh soo many questions!
I'm just dying to know what comes next!!!
When will you be posting another chapter? Is this fic posted somewhere else?
Please! i NEED to know what happens!
*desperate searching eyes*
kisses
Author's Response: Im slightly frightened. Your questions will be answered in the next chapter, most of them. This fic is posted over at FF.net. But the story is updated at the same time over there as it is over here. I will be posting another chapter within the next week and a half to two weeks. I have to send it off to my beta. And I also have to work on my fic for a fic exchange I'm doing for the DG Forum over on FF.net. So, I'm really hoping some time over the next two weeks.
You should be frightened!
=P
That was so mean!
I'm dying here to know what happens!!!
Can't you write the challenge/exchange AFTER you've sent the fic for beta?
You know this is my favorite storie, i've been writing to you since you osted the 2nd or 3rd chapter, you're the reason i'm on this website 10 or 15 times a day, because of you i got to meet some wonderful authrs and stories!
So please make me happy once more and post the next wonderful chapter sooner than 2 weeks!
*eyes glow with tears*
kisses
Author's Response: I'll try. I really will.
=S
my french lessons are goin to start this week.
i'm nervous and excited about it.
hehe
Wha do you need to read?
a huge, classic literature book or just a text from one of our books?
Author's Response: Actually, I just realized I only have to study for French and read my Sociology text. My Wordsworth poems can stay until tomorrow because I don't have that class until Tuesday. I know I will be working on Buttercup so you don't have to worry about that. I just don't know when I'll finish the chapter. I'm already 2,000 words in.
Sorry about the bodily harm threaths!
*cheeky grin*
I was really just overly excited about getting you going to the next chapters!
I can't even begin to describe my happiness when i recieved the message saying the chapter was up!
I left a birthday party just to read it!
And it was worthy, althought i still have an obssession with long chapters and smut this was just as brilliant!
We get to see some plotting and understand more of Serena's poor behavior
Plus i got to see the cissa that i love the one who manipulates people into doing what she knows is best for them, even if they don't know it themselves
Firying that girl was kinda harsh and i got the feeling that is gonna come back and bite someone in the ass...but is just my mind playing tricks on me and making me create more complicate plots than they are
I absolutely loved Draco and Ginny's interaction, i was even glad they didnt get to do anything, not even a touch, it only makes me antecipate for the next chapter even more!
Plus the whole tent idea reminded me of "The holiday", i suppose Ginny crawling in the tent will provide Draco with quite the view, this should be hilarious!
=D
i hope the next chapter can be up soon and without the threats!
;)
Thank you so much for posting this, you remain my favorite author!
kisses
Author's Response: It's okay. I love those emails. I like to take it as a sign of your love. I feel bad for the person who's birthday it is. But I'm glad you were happy to read the new chapter, and liked it. The tent scene was inspired by what my dad used to do with me when I was younger. I haven't seen The Holiday. Is that the one with Cameron Diaz? I'm glad you were able to appreciate it without the smut. As for the secretary...I won't say a word. Thanks for all the ego boosting too. I appreciate it more than you can imagine. ;]
She is my best friend since we were kids, she can understand me running away to read!
Besides i have law and ethics test tomorrow morning!
=S
Yep, Cameron Diaz has to crawl into a tent with 2 lovely little girls and Jude Law!
And the tent seems so much like the one you described!
You're very visual by the way, i can see everything you write like i was watching a movie!
OOOHH, you're being cruel about the secretary secret...and i like it very much!
*evil smile*
i'll be more than happy to boost your ego, especially if it means i get you working on this fic!
You have o idea how much this fic means to me!
;D
kisses
Author's Response: I'll have to watch that movie. I didn't remember that Jude Law was in it. The stars was creative license. I was going for something like Hogwarts. I liked when I read stories like that, so I try and write that way. I love thinking I'm watching a movie. So, I am glad I achieve that. :S And eeek, law and ethics. I have a speech communication test, but that is rather easy. Good luck on the test!
Yep, definately worth watching, plus he's wearing glassees, and has that accent so even if it wasn't with Cameron Diaz it would be worth it, just for him!
And they have stars in their tent too! The girls cut them all sparkly and of various sizes hanging form the cieling!
=D
Eeek!
speech communication!
i rather crawl into a hole than have to do these kinds of tests!
At least mine is written!
Can't face the crowd!
Good luck with your test and thanks!
=)
kisses
Author's Response: Thank you!
Oh no!
Another mean author to have me going nuts?
I swear if i ever leave D/G behind is because it sent me to a crazy people insitution where i have no access to the internet!
=SS
Send over all your homework!
I have nother week before classes start and absolutely nothing to do!
Send over your homework, i'll do that and you just worry about the fic!
^;^
Please say yes!
kisses
Author's Response: LOL. I wish. It's reading so I need to know what happens. Plus I have to study for my French quiz.
I cannot believe it's finally here!!!
What a gift!
Thank you so very very much!
And a smut cookie???
Please tell me it will be our christmas present!!!
I must have sent you half a dozen e-mails bugging the heell out of you so thank you os much for this
i haven't even read it yet but i need to put this out before i go so crazy during the actual review that you won't understand a thing
So thank you tahk you thank you!!1
kisses
Author's Response: Yes, it will be your Christmas present. I hope you enjoy the chapter.
eyeing her with curiosity. “He’s rich. He’s attractive. Why wouldn’t you want to date him?”
“It seems you’re more interested in him than I am,” Ginny said slyly. “Would you like me to put in a good word?”
Draco glared at her with disdain. “You’re hilarious.”
“Well, it seemed like you were ready to wax poetic about him,” Ginny said with a shrug. “Perhaps that’s why things didn’t work out with us. I didn’t have the proper, ahem, equipment to keep you satisfied.”
“If it weren’t for the fact that a passerby could see, I would show you just how properly your equipment can keep me satisfied,” Draco said, his eyes flashing dangerously. “In any case, I wouldn’t tempt me, if I were you.”
“You assume that I would let you touch me,” Ginny replied, not missing a beat.
“Not only would you let me, you would beg me,” Draco taunted. He leaned forward, and brushed her hair out of her face. “You would spread your legs, and beg for me over and over.”
This is the kind of dirty banter that i absolutely and takes a former lover or a close friend to do it!
I absolutely loved this, it brings back memories, not to mention it works perfectly for their relationship.
“You didn’t need to use Serena as an excuse to get me to lock us in a room together.”
“I bet you thought that would sound good,” Ginny rebuked
Hehe, again with the banter, and now a comfortable one!
It's so nice to see them throwing words at each other like this.
Ginny flipped through her small collection of dresses. “I suppose I should wear a dress then.”
“That would be preferable,” Draco murmured, his voice right in her ear. Draco reached around Ginny, and pulled a dress out of the closet. “You should wear this one.”
Ginny shivered at his close proximity. “Draco?”
“Ginny,” he said.
“Why do you keep doing this to me?” she whispered.
WOW!!!
How can someone resist jumping him right then?i guess only if you're in her situation where a shag would lead you to NOT having the relationship you know you can have.
Ginny tried her best not to smile at the lust in his eyes when he saw her black lace underthings. While she wasn’t one to tease, she also got sheer pleasure out of knowing that Draco was still very much attracted to her. She bent over and stepped into the black and white dress, giving Draco an eyeful. It was at this moment he turned away from her, and she caught of glimpse of a bulge before he quickly adjusted his pants.
With a small smile, she stuck her hands in the sleeves of the dress and said, “Could you?”
“You’re a minx,” Draco muttered under his breath, motioning for her to turn around.
She did as told, smoothing down the silky ruffles under her bust. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Of course not.
Could there be a more intimate moemnt than showering together and getting dressed in front of the other like this?
Zipping dresses up and fixing ties and handcuffs seems SO simple to some, but it's such a rush when you realize you have such a wonderful back me up relationship with someone and you pictured this perfectly!
You know, I never even got a kiss for my birthday,” Draco said petulantly while zipping up her dress. “It was the least you could have gotten me.”
“My wonderful presence wasn’t enough?” Ginny moved away from him to get her wand, quickly waving it at her hair. The ends of her hair instantly took on a wavy curl.
“Frankly, no,” Draco deadpanned.
Ginny removed black stilettos from her closet, and ignored his comment. After stuffing her feet into the heels, she spun around, finding herself face to face with Draco. He held a silver chain in his hand with a solitaire diamond pendant. It was not something she owned. He wrapped his arms around her neck, clasping the necklace for her. His hand drifted down her collarbone, touching the diamond nestled right above her cleavage.
“It’s beautiful,” Ginny said, looking down at the simple diamond.
Before she knew what she was doing, Ginny lifted her chin and touched her lips to his. Draco didn’t respond for a second, but once he got over the shock, he moved his lips against hers, the soft feeling a familiar one for both of them. His tongue snaked into her mouth, and moved against hers slowly, sensually. Her body heated up as his hand wrapped around her waist, dragging her body closer to his. The warmth spread from her very core, and Ginny felt weightless.
She pulled away, breathing heavily. “Thank you.”
“The best thanks I’ve ever gotten,” he said quietly.
He moved to let her go, and she gripped his shirt. “Not yet.”
“Can’t walk?” Draco smirked down at her.
This is brilliant, we have sweet Draco, passionite Draco and fun, full of himself Draco all in one scene!
It's positively impossible NOt to love him!!!
You killed our moment,” Ginny said, pushing him away.
“I thought we had this discussion,” Draco said as he straightened his hair. She hadn’t even noticed she had mussed it. “I don’t have moments.”
“You have them. You just don’t seem able to acknowledge them,” Ginny replied.
Again with the banter that i love so much and you write so well!
At the beginning of August,” Draco said.
“My birthday is at the beginning of August,” Ginny murmured softly. “I suppose I could manage to get everything together in a month.”
“I didn’t know your birthday was in August,” Draco said, leaning back in the couch.
Ginny nodded. “I turn twenty-four on August eleventh. It would be nice to spend my birthday with Serena.”
“And me,” Draco added.
The corners of her lips turned up. “I wouldn’t exactly call that nice.”
“I’m not getting you a present now,” Draco said with mock hurt in his voice.
Ginny adopted a serious expression, turning her body on the couch to face him. “You don’t have to get me anything, especially after buying me this necklace.”
Could it be more perfect?
They have it!
They are the old married couple that love each other and they don't even realize it!
“Somewhere tropical,” Draco answered, rising from the couch.
“Now, I have to watch what I eat,” Ginny said with a shake of her head. “I don’t want to look to scar anyone on the beach.”
“Your body is perfect just the way it is,” Draco said sincerely.
He can be naughty for suggesting the beach so he can see her in less clothes and still be so sweet and "gentleman-ly" by telling her how perfect she is just this way.Not to mention how incredibly sweet that is
.
.
.
“Any skinnier and I would have nothing to hold onto while I fu--”
Then he ruins it!
Do you still have to wonder Ginny is in such a state?
By the way i'm loving this Slytherin like Ginny who always has somethign back to say to him, who gets to kill his mood and tell him off, plus tease him A LOT!!!!
“Sorry your plans didn’t quite pan out.”
“I think it worked out quite nicely,” Draco murmured, moving closer to her.
Ginny stepped back. “No more kisses for you.”
Again, only a woman who understands that love will be further away from the relationship of she gives in would be able to do something like this!
Wlaking out on a predatory Draco coming our way???
Yeah, right!!!
Luckyly she has wine and a trashy romance novel!
;P
This was brilliant,Antoinette.
Completely worth the wait.
Especially because now we know there will be a hot, sunny beach. Very little amount of clothes not to mention wet Draco...ok so we'll have Serena but shhe doesn't COMPLETELY kills the mood, in fact she has a tight sleep and she's great for the uncomfortable moments.
I'm so very very happy to have this chapter, even the fact that you were mean by making us wait for a next chapter...not to mention with such a HUGE teaser as to let us know there will be very little amounts of clothes!
I can't wait for the next chapter!!!
I'll TRY not to bug you too much!
Thank you so much for this!
^;^
kisses
Author's Response: It's funny because even though I've read through this a million and one times, I still didn't realize I wrote some of those lines. I didn't remember that I had put quite so much banter in it. I'm not very good at banter, at least, I don't think I am. So this sort of caught me off guard for a moment, which sounds silly because you would think I would remember every detail. Thank you so much for your review, the end part, about the beach and very little clothing, made me want to work on the next chapter. And yes, Ginny has her wine and trashy novel to look forward to. That trashy novel will have a lot of influence in the smut biscuit I plan on finishing and posting soon. Thank you!
Hehe, i know what it feels like!
You are a writer!
unfortunately not a published one because JK and Warner don't leave room for it but you're as good and sometimes better than many published authors!For me you are an author.
Well, it comes naturally to you, that's why you don't even realize their banter!
You're so great you won't even realize as words just flow around you!
i think it's simply magical being able to do that!
OOOHH!!!
I'd love for you to work on it!
It would be a much better Christmas gift!
It would be like getting a dvd player[the cookie] for a gift a few days before Christmas...then you check under the tree on Christmas morning and realizes you got a NITENDO WII!!!!!
That's how magical the next chapter will be if it comes this year!
;)
A nearly naked Draco???
oh lord, the room wnet up several degrees and i'm drooling just thinking about it!
plus it would be great to leave room for really cute, seeminly unintentional touching like throwing gin in the water an things like that...Have you read the cabana boy serie???
THAT would be a heck of a way to tease Draco, sun lotion!!!!
*wiggles eyebrowns*
Hehe
thank you so much for this sweetie!
You're amazing!
And this fic has changed my life so much![someday if you wanna be bored to death i'll explain to you why this fic is so important]
kisses
Author's Response: *sigh* Well, I hope to be published one day, some day in my future. I'm going to try and get that update done before the end of the holidays. But I am quite busy because of the holiday season. I'll try though. And I'm sure the story isn't as boring as you think it is. I would love to hear it.
You WILL get published!
You can even use Buttercup and adapt it to muggle world, it will be a shame to hahvo to loose Draco and ginny's name, i guess calling them Mary and john won't have the same ring to it, but it would still be great!
;p
Hehe, i didn't want to be a whynning kid asking for more, i guess i'm just never happy with a hand and always try to reach for the entire arm.
THe cookie sounds really hot, especially if it's based on that novel[which i must admit i'm a fan of them, i just got a new one today].
I'll owl you the story!
but it's not my fault if it puts you to sleep.
;)
kisses
Author's Response: Yes, everyone loves a good trashy romance. ;) I'm sure the story isn't that bad. As for my original works, I have story ideas already. I suppose I just need to write them.
You are not getting published if you do't write!!1
unfortunately pensieves are still unavailable so you're gonna have to put everything into words!
Write the book, send it like it was college aplications, send to a bunch of publishing companies, and if you send it to Avon make sure you pick a great photo and have another book on the way.
they publish people with less talent, they would be lucky to have you!
Don't let your talent go to waste!
Use it and go after this!
It's one of the easiest dreams to fulfill, you put something you love inside an envelope and send out all over the place!
Much easier than pursuing medical carreer or something like that, huh?
So just go with it, words are flowing around you and beggin to go to the pages so make them go there!
I'm sure you'll get your dream if you try hard enough!
=DDD
kisses
Author's Response: I have a completed novel under my belt, but unfortunately the publishing process isn't as easy as you make it out to be. Well, of course, I thought my story was crap. So, we'll see. Thank you for the support though. And I'm still waiting on that owl.
hehe
i know it's a HELL of a lot harder!!!
but if you have a complete one and others that are mostly done than you are ahead of a lot of people.
go to a xerox place and make 5 or 6 complete copies,send them to all publishing companies you've ever heard of.
i'm pretty sure at least one of them will contact you!
;DD
kisses
the owl hasn't reached you because it was really late and i sorta passed out.
i'll finish and send it when i get home!
;)
“Wow,” she murmured. The minute the words left her mouth, she felt like slapping herself. When he smirked cockily at her, she wanted to slap him.
“I have that effect on women all the time,” he said smoothly.
Ginny resisted the urge to slap him, settling for a glare. “You killed a perfectly good moment.”
“I’m not one for moments,” he said dismissively.
“I would be surprised if you were,” Ginny remarked. She stepped back when she realized how close they were standing, suddenly uneasy with their proximity.
I knew i had read something abuot Draco killing their moment and him saying he didn't have moments.
i also knew i loved the fic, i just realized it was one of your!
=D
silly review, but it was making me crazy not to remember!
;P
kisses
Author's Response: I think I use that moments thing often. I should stop. I never got to hear your story btw.
Oh no, don't stop!
You're the only one i've seen using!
And i really like it!
=D
Really?
That's strange!
I sent you an e-mail!
I'll just re-send it when i get home then!
^;^
kisses
Author's Response: Maybe you should try messaging it to me because I still haven't received it.
i'll owl it through here again, but i'm gonna have to re-write it because it has completely being wiped from here[seeing as the owls don't keep records like e-mails]
it's kinda big so i'm gonna use a part that was previously written and then just keep going!
;)
you should be recieving it in an hour.
^;~
kisses
YAY!
Double YAY!
No more bunch of homework!
over 2000 words for Buttercup!
=DDDD
I'm so happy!!
kisses
Author's Response: Haha, I'm glad.
She joined Luna on her bed with a heavy sigh. “I do love him. I don’t know how I ended up falling in love with someone who doesn’t love me.”
I'm so glad she finally admitted!
i was worried it would have to be forced out of them...with one admitting it's already a huge step in the right direction!
=D
I loved the Hermione/Gin/Luna interaction and the way they reacted to Draco!
I can't believe Ginny is so obviously in love with him!
I'm so glad about this!
^;^
He stared at her small suitcase. "Are you sure you brought enough clothing?"
"The things required for an island vacation are rather miniscule," Ginny said, an imitation of Draco's smirk appearing on her lips when he glared at her.
"Are you planning on doing that all weekend?" snapped Draco.
"I don't know what you're talking about," Ginny said innocently. "I'm not doing anything."
OOOOOHHH!!!
Sje's teasing and flirting shamelessly!
And he's already really vexed!
This is going to be a killer!
i wonder if they'll make it through the next day without kissing???
hmmm....
I sure hope not, i can't wait for the moment when Draco snaps, especially if it's after Serena is asleep!
I'M SO EXCITED!!!
"I will raise my daughter the way I see fit," Draco said stoically.
"She's my daughter too," Ginny argued, standing to her feet. "I may not have been here for the first six years of her life, and that’s not by my own choosing, either. But I certainly plan on being in it as long as I live. And you, Draco Malfoy, will have to get used to this fact. I'm tired of walking on eggshells around you. I didn't purposely forfeit my right to be a parent. It was done to me."
Draco opened his mouth to reply but was cut off by Serena's shout. "Mother, I'm ready."
I'm glad they are having this discussion/fight right now.
I don't expect the exact same results as last time they had this argument, but i sure as hell expect them to have some sort of explosive reaction...wjether it will be akiss, a slap or running out and having him go after her i'm not sure yet, but i know you'll do it right!
=)
"You didn't kidnap me," Ginny said with a smile. "I came here."
"Not for—" His mouth snapped shut instantly.
"Not for what?" Ginny stood, suspicion on her face. She had an inkling of what he was about to say. "Not for what, Draco?"
AAAAAAWWWWW!!!
He was gonna say not for US, or ME!
AAAWWW!!!
he's so cute trying to fight it!
=)
No wonder she's in love...she'll be drowing in it soon!
because she's just waaaaay over her head.
"I suppose you have no urges to shag me then?" asked Draco after a moment of silence.
"What?"
"The last time you played in water and talked about your brother, we shagged and conceived Serena." Draco raised an eyebrow. "Having any of those urges?"
Ginny wishes to say:"Oh! Thank merlin! I thought you'd never ask!"Then through herself at him and hug her arms and legs around him while maddly kissing him and pushing him to the bed so she can straddle him.
Ginny couldn't help but to laugh. "No, I can't say I am."
"Liar," Draco murmured, his eyes flashing. "I can read you like a book, Ginevra. Don't forget it."
Suddenly uncomfortable, Ginny said, "I better go get dressed."
"Don't mind me," Draco replied with a grin.
"You really know how to change subjects," Ginny said, shaking her head. She pointed to the door. "Go before your daughter starts to think wild thoughts about what's going on up here."
"She's my daughter now?" Draco's tone was playful.
Ginny tossed a makeup brush at him. "Get out."
OOOOHHH!!!
I loved their little banter!
=DD
I'm glad Ginny was sad and looked like she was about to cry.
it would have been horrible for them to fight at this moment.
Especialy because Serena would feel guilty
At least this way the air around them gets lighter.
I'm so glad you finally found the time to update!
I was wondering if i should owl ou and bug you about thischapter yesterday.
I'm sure glad i didn't have to!
^;^
please tell me now that holiday madness is over you'll have a lot more time to write and i'll post the next chapter sooner!
I can't wait to see a kiss scene in this gorgeous island!
^;~
Thank you so much for this!
kisses
Author's Response: Lol, your comments can be quite hilarious. They definitely needed to hash out their issues with Serena's upbringing. It'll come up in the future. In any case, yes, the vacation is not over. There is still plenty of time for something or nothing to happen. Hehe.
hehe
Thanks!
=)
You're getting mean!
Something or nothing to happen?
WOW!
That really left me with a wondering imagination...
i'm just about going crazy with so many ideas going through my head as to what can and cannot happen!
=S
Going insane!!!
=OOO
When will you be updating next?
please don't tell me it will take another month or so!
*pouts lips and bats eyelashes*
kisses
Author's Response: I never said I was nice :) Don't worry, I'm working on the next chapter right now. I want to say I'll complete it tonight and send it off to my beta, but I probably won't. I have a ton of homework to do. And homework trumps fanfiction, although I wish it didn't. It'll be soon though. Two weeks maximum.
=O
I'm shocked at the chapter and myself.
I was so entranced by the story I completely forgot to review!!!
I'll be reading it again as soon as i'm back from class.
But this chapter is absolutely wonderful.
And i loved Serena in it.
She was just as perfect and manipulative as her grandmother Cissa.
=D
Thank you so much for this.
kisses
Author's Response: I thought you might like it, especially with the smut. :) Hope you're having fun in class.
Yeah, right!
You forgot one thing: It's CLASS!!!
;P
Seriously the general theory of hospitality and turism is no fun at all!!!
But i did love the chapter, whenever the professor isn't looking i'm reading the chapter again and thinking up what to write in the reviews!
^;^
GREAT smut!!!
kisses
Author's Response: Some classes can be fun, I don't know about that one though.
it's here!
it's here!
it's here!
i've been waiting on this forever
it's 1 am so my real review shall come in te afternoon but i'm so happy
thank you
tahnk you
tahnk you
i love you
kisses
kisses
kisses
Author's Response: Haha, no thanks needed.
YAY!
YAY!
YAY!
o/
FINALLY we have you and especially Buttercup back!
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN????
i swear it feels like forever since i was last here!!!
I only show up when you update
i haven't read a fic in AGES!!!
Kindle REALLY gets expensive if you buy 8 to 10 books a week...
plus it's nowhere near as satisfatory or personal as a fic.
now turning on the POLITE mode...
how have you been?
what have you been up to?
where did you move to?
I've been brutally beaten and kidnapped. When things like that happen, you realize that life is a lot shorter than you think. I want to get married, Luna. I would love to have a nice wedding on a beach. I want to be pregnant again and be able to walk out of my house instead of being locked up like a prisoner. I want to go through all the nuances of pregnancy with someone who loves me by my side. I need to be able to hold my newborn child in my arms one day
I wanna a beach wedding too!!! [At least one of them...]
i feel so close to her now, shraing the same sentiments.
Except for the getting PHISICALLY beaten and bruised
You realy do have an amazing wy to reach out to everyone did you know that?
I want Draco to be that person by my side. But if he can't give that to me, I need to move on, Luna."
NNOOO!!!!
DON'T DARE TO MOVE ON!!!
Unless it's another fake move on...then it's ok.
i DO enjoy seeing him lose his mind
*evil grin*
Draco moved towards her, a frown on his face. "Jittery?"
"I'm still having nightmares. Heck, I practically jump at my own shadow," Ginny confessed, bowing her head to avoid looking him in the eye. "I'm actually kind of thankful you're here. I don't want to be alone right now, but I didn't want to burden Hermione and Charlie."
She hated being vulnerable, hated the feeling that she needed someone. However, when Draco had started acting so—so open, an unusual behavior for him, she couldn't help but to admit her current fear. And the way he stared at her when she admitted her jumpiness made her want to snuggle into his embrace.
"You're not a burden to anyone," Draco said quietly. He hesitantly ran his hand down her cheek, a faint smile appearing on his face when she leaned into his touch. "I'll stay here while you take a bath."
=)
How can anyone hold themselves when a guy is this sweet???
I have a goofy smile on my face and once again i'm completely in love with him[i had forgotten about this feeling]
Draco waltzed in, a smirk on his face as he saw Ginny scrambling to cover herself with the bubbles.
"Playing modest?"
Ginny huffed. "You go from sweet to snarky in ten seconds. Do you know that?"
Draco shrugged. "I was getting bored sitting outside by myself."
"Could you at least pretend you're not staring at me?
=DDD
He's brilliant isn't he?
I love how he just barges in and she loves him so very very much she can't even throw him a dirty look
Plus all that "i own the place" attitude of his just makes you all tingly
"If we weren't involved, he would never have thought to come after you," Draco said, frustration seeping into his voice. He turned around, resting his hands against the counter, his eyes focused on his reflection in the mirror. "Waiting for you to wake up, for the bleeding to stop—I don't know what I would have done if we lost you, Ginny."
My heart went out to him
i have a lump on my throath right now just picturing his sweet beautiful face contorced in agony
he can be so emotional and so open to her
admiting all his worries and fears...it's impossible to hold you own tears especially when you know he's used to be a cold man
Ginny stepped out of the tub and grabbed a towel, wrapping it around her body. Without hesitating, she wrapped her hands around Draco, resting her cheek against his back. She didn't care if he became quiet and cold. In that moment, she could only think that he needed comfort, whether or not he would admit it.
=)
i know it's a cliché move but i love the hug form behind thing
whether it comes from the girl or the guy
is just so sweet and tender and perfect
you're just giving something, a part of yourself and already putting yourself in a vulnerable position because it's easier to be dismissed in this situation
they don't even realize but they are doing all the right things to show their love for each other
Ginny didn't have much warning. In moments, Draco spun around, still in her embrace, and his lips descended upon her own. His hands tangled into her wet tresses, the kiss passionate and needy. It was as if he was trying to assert the fact that she was indeed there, and she did not mind one bit. She ran her hands up his back, wrapping her arms around his neck. She lightly ran her fingers along the base of his skull, her lips never leaving his.
Before she could stop herself, her legs were wrapped around his waist, and her towel's knot was slowly unraveling as he rested her on the counter. He held her securely in his arms, his grip tight and his mouth demanding. Her chest swelled with want and desire. But when her towel fell onto the counter, her body left open to him,
now THAT's the proper response to such a giving embrace
he got the exact right answer to her
right there
This is the perfect D/G moment
they argue, bicker or fight[sometimes all 3 and then some]
one shows love
the other shows passion
they both explode in the moment
is just perfect
she gasped, her mind reeling and flashing back to the scene in Warrington's home. She pulled back and closed her eyes, her head falling to Draco's shoulder and a tear leaking out of her eye.
"I'm sorry," Ginny whispered. "I thought—"
"Shhh," Draco murmured, placing a kiss on her bare shoulder before picking up the towel and wrapping it around her shoulders. "I shouldn't have let it get so out of control."
Now you're just fishing for compliments...
;P
the sweet, understanding Draco is just too much
my heart can't take it!
You're gonna kill me woman!!!
after so long without him he comes back doing all the right perfect things!
HE's so thoughtfull and caring, holding her like she's gonna break, putting her needs and wishes above his own
*sighs*
She moved to pick out a simple black dress but was halted by Draco's hand on her own, a similar situation to a few weeks ago when they decided on their vacation. Confused, she asked, "What are you doing?"
"No black," he said shortly.
"Choosing my wardrobe options again?" Ginny turned and gave him a lopsided grin. "Is there some other color you would prefer me to wear?"
"I would like to see you in this little number," he replied, handing her a lacy, midnight blue shirt. "It's a lovely dress."
She smacked his chest. "That's a shirt."
"It makes a better dress," Draco said with a smirk
=D
(6)
She should definatelly wear it as a dress just for him
maybe during a dinner in a quiet place, just the two of them...i'm sure he would have to pick his chin from the floor and push his eyes back in their sockets...
plus he would really appreciate the surprise...
"We have a meeting with some American business men. Your good friend Ethan will be there," Draco said, smirking when Ginny blushed. "Did you know he was seeing Theo?"
"I did," Ginny answered. She heard the sound of her mother's voice and sighed. "I guess that's my cue."
HA!
I love him like this!
she really was saved by the bell this time,huh?
"Your mum baked a pie."
"Not rivaling Ginny's, I'm sure," Draco said, barely keeping the smirk off his face.
Ginny turned to Draco, hiding a smile. "Uhm, Draco, didn't you have somewhere to be?"
Draco stepped towards her, giving her a kiss on the cheek before whispering, "I'll see you."
OOOHH
I wish i could be the one to do that to that dispicable woman!
Even Ginny couldn't hold herself
=)
He SHOULD have given her a REAL kiss though...just to make that nasty woman suffer...plus it would be amuzing for Draco and Ginny
;P
"I love you and your family. But after what your mother did, well, Blaise is a little wary of being around her and having the kids around her. He saw how hurt I was when I thought you were dead and—"
YES!
YES!
YES!
Everyone should push her away
I'm proud of Luna!
It ended too soon!
*pouts*
Please tell me that the next one is already written and being beta-ed.!
please please please
i wanna know if Ginny goes away and if Draco goes after and if they try to be nice but realize they love each other too much and have too much fire so they can't haelp themselves and have crazy explosive sex and then make love all night long but they forget to use protection and she gets pregnant and i have no idea where i'm getting these ideas from but my hand is starting to shake because i'm typing too fast
*Phew*
i swear i tried to stop myself but it was like my hand and fingers had a mind of it's own
i WAS in control when i said i can hardly wait for the next chapter though...
so please don't be a stranger to the website
i know i haven't written a review for a long long time but i was busy before and then you stopped posting but right now i'm cutting class so i can be here reading and reviewing so you know that you're important and your fics are very much loved so please don't stop writing them!

Author's Response: Manu, where have you been? You haven't reviewed *any* of my stories in ages, and I miss your reviews. I even emailed you to make sure you didn't fall off the face of the earth or something to that effect. But at least you're back. Anyway, yes the next chapter is complete. No it is not beta-d. But even better, the next chapter is the last chapter--well maybe not better depending on how you look at it. And then there's the epilogue. Can you believe it? Buttercup will be complete. So excited. And I look forward to your reviews to my stories that I've missed mucho.
Mutual deprivation pushes Draco and Ginny to strange new things.Category: Completed Short Stories
I dunno if this was your intetion but that was HOT!
I would definately love to see another chapter, or 5, or at least a cookie with this specific scene where she gets her candy back. It would also be rather amusing to have him tasting her all over and made some melted chocolatewas in order...
hmmm..
this fic just really got to me.
;)
Congratulations and thank you for posting it!
kisses
Author's Response: A cookie you say? I'll give it a shot. Thanks for your comments. :) -seegrim
=D
YAY!!!
o/
When a story is THIS great, you should definately keep it ging, stretch a little, or a lot, more.
In this case i think you should kep up where it stopped with a GRRRREAT cookie, and a big one too!
Or you should write more chapters, i mean it this was AMAZING!
I've read this story like 15 times, i even have it printed so i can read it wherever i am, it's located inside my purse and when i change purses, it goes along with my documents.
=)
Not kidding!
This is fantastic!
Congratulations and than you so much for posting it!
kisses
