Gina sighed as she hung her head and let her chin rest on her palm. Where was Lei?

She was so deep in thought that she did not even notice when Draco sat next to her. She faintly heard him say hello, but she ignored him. She was too into her own little world to worry about him right now.

Instead she turned to Cali, “Cali, have you seen Lei?” she asked, hopeful.

“Actually Gina, no I haven’t. She said she would be here by the sorting, she should be around here somewhere,” Cali answered after looking up and down the table.

Gina began to get even more nervous, what if something happened to her? “We need to find her,” she muttered as she looked back to the sorting again.

“Owens, William,” they were almost to Kyle’s name, could not be that long until he was sorted.Gina frowned and then sighed, what was she going to do, wait for him to be sorted or go and look for Lei?

Draco looked over to Gina with a bit of confusion in his eyes, "Gina? What's the matter?" he asked, putting his arms around her neck so she would pay attention. Anyone new would think the two were together, but everyone else in school knew better than to think that.

"I can't find Lei, and she said she would be back before the sorting started," Gina started as they finished with the Os.

"Oh... want to go look for her? I'll come with you if you want to," Draco suggested.

"I'll wait a few more minutes, and then we can go look for her. Kyle is about to be sorted into his house," she stated, looking at Draco for a moment. He was always so different when he was around her.

"Rivers, Kyle"

"Oh my gosh, that's him!" Gina exclaimed excitedly, watching the sorting intently.


After a few moments of waiting…

"Gryffindor!” The hat yelled out into the silence of the room.

Gina’s heart sunk. "Gryffindor? Kyle?!" she mumbled to Draco, her eyes wide as Kyle jumped off the school to go join his classmates at the other end of the room.How were her parents going to take this? She did not know, but she knew it would not be pretty.

"Maybe he has heroic tendencies?" Draco suggested, trying to lighten the mood a little bit.

"Yeah, yeah. I will deal with that later... Let's just go find Lei," Gina answered, getting up from the table.

She pouted slightly, "Where is she?" she asked Draco as they snuck out of the Great Hall during the sorting. There were always plenty of Rs to last awhile, anyways.

Draco looked around the hallways, "I'm not sure," he said. "What happened when you last saw her?"

"Um... She said she would meet up with us again at the sorting, then she left with this good looking gu- Draco that's it!" she whispered loudly, thinking she knew where Lei was now.

Draco nodded, glad to be getting somewhere for the whereabouts of Lei. "But where did they go?" he asked, not meaning to complicate things even more. Nice job, Draco.

Gina frowned, “I don’t know,” she muttered, looking around the dungeons now. The two of them came across the entrance to the Slytherin common room in no time.

“Pureblood,” Draco said to the stone wall. Slytherin’s were always so creative when it came to their passwords. Ha, just kidding.

The wall opened and a large room that was furnished beautifully was revealed, everything was either green or black and even the carpet was amazingly well kept.

Draco sighed happily, "It feels good to be home," he said as Gina was admiring it as well.

"It does. But I'll care later, I need to find her!" she said, running up to the girls dorm as quickly as she could, which was actually really fast.

Draco shrugged, "I guess I'll wait here, then!" Gina heard him call up to her as she ran.

Gina opened the door to find the four poster's that belonged to all the 7th year girls in Slytherin.She walked around and found all of their stuff next to the beds, all put away and everything.She continued walking and heard a noise coming from a little further away. She raised an eyebrow as she headed in that direction, wondering what it could be.

Soon her feet stopped at a bed, a supposed vacant one since no one ever used it. Nevertheless, someone was using it now.Gina reached up to the canopy and pulled the veil to the right to see whom it was that was sleeping there.

The sight burned her eyes, metaphorically of course.She stood there, mouth wide open as she saw Lei snogging that person she had run off with earlier.Lei had only a white t-shirt and shorts on, while the boy had only his pants covering him.

“What the hell is this?!” Gina yelled, glaring daggers at both of them.

The two quickly broke apart as soon as they heard the yell. Gee, usually when someone opens the curtains one would stop whatever it is they had been doing.Lei started trying to fix her hair that was completely frizzy and messed up in all directions.
The man looked at Gina like she was insane, “What’s the deal, girly? Why did you ruin our moment like that?” he asked through gritted teeth.

Gina simply glared at them again, angry at him and disappointed in Lei. She could have at least told her and Cali that she had something else to attend to and would not be returning anytime soon.

“Go. Now,” Gina stated coldly to the boy. When she said that, the guy instantly grabbed his shirt and ran for his life down the stairs to the common room. Uh oh, he is going to be facing Draco when he reaches the bottom.

After he was gone, Gina looked at Lei who was looking down at the bed, clutching at the sheets, knowing she screwed up big time.That did not stop Lei from starting something with Gina, though.

"Why did you have to come up here? You just had to ruin everything! The one guy that liked me for me is gone now thanks to you!" she started yelling about things that were not true.

"Yeah, think whatever you want. You are the one that promised to meet me and Cali at the sorting. You are so lucky she didn't come up to get you as well," Gina said, throwing Lei her robes, "That's not exactly friendship, what you did, either," she finished, leaving the dorm room.

Draco sat on the couch in front of the couch, thinking of how he was going to stop liking Gina as more than a friend when he heard a person stumble down the stairs to the girls’ dorm. He looked over and recognized him immediately.

“Hello there, Miller,” Draco stated as he got up from the couch, walking over to him as the man stood up.

The boy looked at Draco for a few seconds, “Malfoy,” he muttered, glaring at him.

Draco reached him quickly and glared into his brown eyes, “What were you doing up there?” he asked, curious.

“Same thing you do in the girls’ dorm, bud,” Miller answered, smirking. “That bitch just had to come in when we were about to get somewhere. That dumb American whore,” he continued, chuckling to himself.

Sad thing is that Miller did not fully notice that he was talking to Draco, that whore's best friend.

Draco clenched his jaw tightly as he heard what Miller had to say about Gina. That was unforgivable.“Don’t EVER say anything like that about Gina again!” he yelled at him, moving to bring his fist to collide with Miller’s cheek.

Almost immediately though, Draco’s hand was stopped in midair. He looked to see what had caused his fist to stop and found Gina holding his fist with one of her hands.

“Don’t hurt him, Draco,” Gina said quietly, “I’ll take care of him myself,” she looked over at the other boy.

“Damian Miller, I’m an American whore, huh? You got that right,” she said rather seductively. “That must mean that I am not too attractive. I’m sorry, it’s just the way I was born,” she continued, twirling her hair around her finger as she released Draco’s hand. “I don’t know why, but I’m getting worked up by you, you are so muscular and attractive…” Gina trailed off, looking him up and down as she smirked.

Draco gulped, he had never seen Gina act like this, and he was very confused and… turned on.

Damian simply shrugged, "I know, I know... Would you like to go up to my dorm and spend the night?" he asked, smirking at her.

Gina was slowly touching his chest and arms, not answering him. She just simply nodded up to him, smiling innocently.

Miller smiled and took her hand, leading her over to the bottom of the stairs to the boys’ dorm. As they began walking up them, he let a hand slide under her shirt and went up a bit, stopping just before her chest.

Gina blinked and growled at him, sending a hard kick where it hurts. When he rolled down the stairs in pain, she glared at the still body, “It will take more than that to get me, buddy. Don’t go near Lei again, remember that,” she stated as she walked back down the stairs, using his body as a bridge.

She walked back over to Draco and smiled when she saw Damian stand up against a wall.

“You didn’t think that I was actually going to sleep with him, did you?” she asked as she looked back to the blonde.

“I… am not sure, exactly. I was hoping that you wouldn’t, but your acting was superb,” Draco answered, smirking down at her.

“Pfft, I don’t go with any horny little bastard that comes my way, no need to worry,” Gina added as she lightly took her hand and walked back to the entrance to the common room.

As the two of them walked out of the room, Draco could have sworn you saw Gina wink and blow a small kiss Damian’s way, hopefully as a way of only taunting.

When they were back in the dungeons, Gina turned her head to look at Draco.“Thanks for coming with me to find her,” she said, rubbing her head against his shoulder slightly, “You’re awesome.”

Draco smirked at her and shrugged it off, “Anytime,” he said simply, giving her a small hug with one of his arms.

Shortly they arrived back to the Great Hall and walked back over to the Slytherin table.

Gina smiled and sat next to Cali while Draco sat on the other side of Gina, both happy that they had found Lei and anxious to the food that would be appearing within minutes.
