Ginny snuck out of the Room of Requirement, 30 minutes later than she had planned.
She crept through the castle, edging her way through the shadows, down to where the Slytherin House was, to where Draco would be impatiently waiting.
Seeing him had always been difficult, but it was even harder now. With Snape as the Headmaster, her every move was watched.
Ginny could see Draco's dark shadow ahead, and she instantly knew she'd risk any punishment for him.
"Did you miss me?" she whispered.
He turned quickly, observing her with narrowed silver eyes.
She loved him, imperfections and all.

"You're late," Draco's low voice came out of the dungeon shadows.
"You try sneaking out of the Room of Requirement when about 35 people are living there," Ginny snapped.
He tugged her into the shadows and kissed her. "Im tired of sneaking around. I want to leave school and go where it's just me and you. Where we can be safe."
"Where would that be?"
"Anywhere but here." Draco's voice was so low she could barely hear him.
"We can't leave our families..."
"We could start our own..."
"When the war ends?"
"Or before, if I graduate first."
"Promise?"
"Promise."
