Ginny and Draco pulled away from each other slightly, catching their breath, their foreheads pressed against each other's. Ginny felt her black up against brick and it hurt, but she didn't care. Ginny looked up at Draco through her eyelashes. He was looking at her as well. She had to swallow at how silver his eyes were and how the blonde hair fell in his face and how-

"I hate you sometimes, you know that," she whispered. She told herself that she'd pull away from him if she could, but her position against the wall didn't allow her that movement.

"I know," he muttered, moving closer so that their noses touched.

Ginny closed her eyes and she hated herself in that moment, she hated him for making her lose this control of herself whenever she looked at him, even though she didn't feel anything for him, she couldn't possibly feel anything for him. He was a Malfoy, for Merlin's sake. Malfoys and Weasleys simply didn't associate in anything outside verbal assaults and a fist fight here of there.

Then again, no Malfoy was supposed to be looking at a Weasley the way Draco was looking at her now. And again Ginny hated herself for liking it.

Draco's lips brushed against hers and Ginny leaned into his touch. She moved one arms from around his neck to his hair and ran through it. She had to admit that she'd always loved how soft it was. Draco would never let anyone touch it.

But Draco didn't seem to mind that his hair was even more mussed than it was before, when he was in the bush. Ginny smiled against his lips.

"What is it?" he asked, moving slightly away from her.

"Just thinking," Ginny said. She tilted her head sideways and brought her lips to his jaw, placing kisses along it.

"'Bout what?" he asked as their lips touched again.

"You," Ginny whispered.

And she really hated herself for saying something like that to a Malfoy.

I really should stop adding more every time someone else does. I just can't help myself. This is going so well.

Awwww That was so sweet of her. Good job Tari!

NaC

"Me?" Draco echoed, an arrogant smirk sliding across his lips.

Ginny rolled her eyes. "Don't look so surprised about it," she said sarcastically, and crossed her arms.

He tugged her arms open again, his eyes twinkling. "I'm not surprised because I know I have that effect on every woman. They just can't stop thinking about me."

"First surprise, now modesty," Ginny said, her lips twitching. She had to admit to herself that he did look rather scrumptious -- even when he was smirking all over the place.

He kissed her closed lips, and drew back before she could respond to the brief peck. "So, no further involvement?" He asked, complacently.

Ginny opened her mouth to agree, and then shut it abruptly as she realized she could not do so truthfully.

He intertwined his fingers with hers, and it drew her attention to their loose clasp of hands. Draco's long, pale fingers were smooth and well groomed, strong in an elegant sort of manner. Her own were rougher, neglected, with the nails chewed down from her unconscious habit. If one compared them side by side they would be completely incompatible. But when grasped together, holding onto each other tightly, they seemed to have a perfect fit.

Ginny thought that was rather like she and Draco as individuals. Seperately they were completely opposite, completely unfit, completely forbidden. But every time they were together - every time she was in his embrace - it was perfect.

She looked up into his expectant gaze. "I don't want to get further involved," she said quietly, and a spark of disappointment flittered in his grey eyes.

"But I know that I really don't have a choice." She finished her statement and Draco gave a triumphant smirk.

"Of course," he said, taking her arm firmly, "I knew it all along. No woman in her right mind would ever say such a thing and mean it."

Ginny didn't bother with a retort to this, and started to lead him down the street. "What does further involvement entail anyways?" She asked, abruptly.

Draco seemed to give it a moment of thought.

"Well..." he said, turning to face her, "We can do this" he breathed, kissing her softly on the lips, "Whenever we want."

She stifled a grin, deciding to play along.

Running her fingers through his already mussed hair, she questioned, "And this?"

He nodded, leaning in to kiss her on the neck. "Yes, that too."

"Oh, and definately this, right?" she asked, nipping playfully at his ear.

He smiled as well, into her soft red hair.

Things were looking up.

You know, thats the perfect ending to an awesome Round Robin. What do you guys think?

You know, as much as I want to keep writing this, I have to agree. We don't want to keep going until this gets to have no plot and just fades out. Might as well end it here and have a really good ending. Nice job Sakura, by the way. We could always go and start up a third RR now if everyone agrees...

Yes, we need to start a new one so this doesn't end up like the Round Robin before this one. Its a good ending, so lets keep it that way. We just need to make sure that its ok with some more people also.

Yeah, we could start anew. *sigh* This one was so sweet! I loved the older Draco and Ginny.

But do we want to get into talking to the other Weasleys and such? Ah well, whatever the rest of you want to do.

You know what, I think I mentioned it last time, but would anyone object of cop/pasting these parts and putting it the RR on ff.net as a story? All of the contributors' names could go in the bio, and then we could all get reviews and such. We can have links to each person's other stories to get publicity for their fics. Anyone object?

~Ryoko~

Oh thats a good idea, Ryoko! But what would the User Name be if we were to do this?

Hmmm.....I dunno. Maybe "PKRRDGers" lol. Way to confuse people. Do you really think we could do that though?

~Ryoko~

Surely Puf! No problem. I might even get it all together tonight.....*scampers off to rapidly copy/paste* Does anyone have an email address we could use for the name? I have two but they're both being used for different accounts already.

~Ryoko~

Sounds like a great idea. I always love reviews. Would we make this into a one shot or a chaptered story?

I think it should be a one-shot story, as splitting it up would not hold readers attention as well. Sometimes people like to read a single fiction for a bit of fluff.

The question is, when's the third round robin going to start?

I agree, this is definately one shot material.

How many words is it?! I don't remember it being that long!

Still think it doesn't have the plot to be a chaptered do though...

Pages: 36
Paragraphs: 108
Lines: 1926
Words: 16309
Characters: 74515
Characters(with spaces): 91384

That's all the info MSWord gives me. So you wanna do a one-shot? That'd be fine with me.

~Ryoko~

Definitely one-shot. Splitting it up would make chapters too short. 36 pages isn't that long, anyway. I just finished a one-shot today that ended up being 35.

One shot would be perfect. Like someone said earlier, if it weren't then it wouldn't keep people's attention to it. Better just leave it at that.

I was thinking, since this thread appears to be very active and it's entitled of my question topic, that maybe I could get some help. I was sent a challenge to do a Round Robin--I have an idea of what it is, but I need an in depth explanation because I'm slow like that...anyhow hope someone can help! ~Aya

Gypsybaby, are you asking what a Round Robin is? Your question was sort of worded in a roundabout way.

If so, then I can help you out. A Round Robin is a story written by multiple authors. They work really well in forums, where each author can just add another few paragraphs or so in their next post.

Does this clear it up a little bit for you?

Sorry...didn't mean to talk weird. Um...yeah, so basically it's like writing a chapter to a story, only one person writes one chapter and another one writes another one. Right? If that's it then I get it! Thanks! ~Aya

Okay I made a Yahoo! email.

Email: pkroundrobin@yahoo.com
Password: dgforever

And I can trust the people on PK to not destroy our email address, right? Good.

The ff.net name is Portkey Robins, but you can decide on something less corny if you want and I'll change it.

Also, thanks a huuuuuge bunch to VanillaPuf for beta-ing!

~Ryoko~

EDIT: At the bottom of the fic there was a list of all of our PK names and links to our Portkey and ff.net accounts so people can read our fics and review them if they like the round robin, but the URLs wont show up when I upload the document, so I'm just going to list our PK names. If anyone knows how to fix it, please tell me!

Nah, ff.net doesn't let you do links.

And if it somehow does, I've never met anyone who knew how.

I'm so excited! Yay us!

Is there any way to put links to all our stuff somewhere? Like maybe the bio or something? I'll do it if everyone gives me link to their other work.

Tari.. that's a great idea.

An easy way to go about doing that is looking at everyone's left module on their posts. See the little lightbulb and pencil icons? Those are links to their PK and FF.N accounts. That way, we don't have to go and list them again.

-Sakura

SCORE! We already have one reply to the Round Robin, lol! Sorry..just thought you all should know..

Hahahah I was flipping when I saw it. *grin* It's so fun to check it all the time. I need to update my fics more often.

~Ryoko~

OMG soo much has happened!
I went over to read that review & I got all happy (and that's saying something for someone who is happy almost 24/7)
This was a great idea .
Sakura wonderful ending. By the way no one answered the question about allowing us to post this on the DLA.

By the way I was just looking the fic over & the last word is cut off. Not a big deal you can still tell what the word is. Just in case someone wanted to fix it.

Edit
Ignore that statement right above, about that cut off word. I think it was just me. sorry.

And did anyone read the reviews recently? There's some person who's whole review is a rant. Pretty amusing.

There are quite few a small grammatical errors, but I understand. It was alot to beta.

I say we put it on the DLA then, since no one has opposed yet.

-Sakura

Yes, I definitely want to do that. It'd be really neat, because it al ties together with Portkey!!

~Ryoko, who infinitely hearts the "cool" sunglasses smiley. Again. ~

Ps; And I stole the "stuff after your name" thing from the wonky thread. those people are so interesting. I'm noticing everyone's "Innuendo" sides now. lol

Haha, I was explaining Innuendo sides to my friends today in math class and it resulted in getting all three of our names on the board!

Anyway, yes, Rund Robin, great job everyone. (Pitiful attempt to get back on topic )I'm sure the reviews will pile in. Ha. Haha. Did any of you notice the link in my signature?

-Sakura, who needs a cough drop
