Entry tags:!status: complete, ^date: november 12 2003, character: ginny weasley, character: zacharias smith

Characters: Zacharias and Ginny
Setting: shortly after midnight, Diagon Alley
Rating: Oh probably not worksafe
Summary: In his infinite wisdom, Zacharias decides that the best way to deal with finding out you got someone pregnant is to have a few drinks and have meaningless sex. Or at least that was the original plan.

Zacharias had finished up at the station shortly after eleven, it being his night to stay late for the repay and start preparations for the postmortem in the morning. Honestly, he was grateful to not have to think about the healer appointment earlier. Merlin, Marietta Edgecombe had his bastard child growing inside of her stomach. It was the sort of thing that would drive a man to drink.

So, it was the sort of reason why Zacharias had opted to head out to the late bar with some of the interns for a few drinks. A beer, some whiskey and sex (but not with an intern because there were lines he didn't cross) would make him feel a bit better. At the very least it would help him sleep easier tonight.

The group was en route to another bar when Stanley, the extra nervous new guy, managed to cross paths with no one else but the great Ginny Weasley. Zacharias couldn't stop the bout of laughter that escaped him at the absurdity of the run in. "You really have to stop meeting me like this or else I'm going to actually think you're stalking me."

Drinking with the Harpies could usually turn into an all night affair, but thoughts of the earlier conversation with Percy kept running through Ginny's head and she found that, after a few hours, she just wasn't up for getting totally pissed. A little pissed, yeah, she was always game for that, but she just wasn't feeling the usual. And so she bid her mates goodbye around midnight and left the pub, intending to go right home.

She ended up walking around the block instead, enjoying the wind in her hair and the chance to catch up on her own thoughts. And then a bloke just literally walked right into her and before she could get her bearings (maybe even pull out her wand. One couldn't be too cautious these days), he started stammering a whole round of nervous apologies.

And then there was Zacharias Smith, of all people, laughing about an arm's length away from her.

"Grow the hell up, Smith." She scowled at him.. "Take your nervous friend and get lost, would you?"

"You're the one who nearly took out Stanley here," he said his voice full of alcohol aided mirth. "I'm not sure what that has to go with growing up at all and I'll gave you know that I am fully grown." She was not going to ruin his evening, although maybe this was just going to make it better.

"And I really think you owe Stanley an apology or at a sexual favor for his trouble." The young man started babbling again with a renewed fervor once he processed what Zacharias had said. The other two in their group were a mix between confused and anxious waiting to see what would come next.

Nervous Stanley really started stuttering then, and if the situation hadn't involved Zacharias Smith, Ginny might have almost found the whole thing funny.

"Fully grown into what?" She decided to ignore the sexual favor comment. The only proper response to that was a punch in the face and she just wasn't in the mood -yet- for any of that. "A world class git? Nice job, arsehole, I'm sure you make your mother proud."

Later for this. She turned to walk away.

Zacharias told Stanley and the others to head on without him. He was glad they didn't seem to say anything or make any faces, they simply wished him a good night with promises to see him in the morning. Now, that he lacked an audience of his coworkers, he had more liberty to pursue this as he wanted.

"What's wrong, Ginevra?" The use of her fully name intentional, because he liked the way it resonated better. "Can't hold you own?" He said calling after her, but not making effort to move toward her. "I never knew to you just run away." And maybe that was a set up for her to turn it toward him, but the more he actually thought about it that didn't sound like such a bad idea. There definitely had been a sort of chemistry between them and he wasn't opposed to exploring that more tonight.

Oh, for the love of-

"What the hell are you trying to pull tonight, Smith?" She turned, hands in her pockets, glared at him. "You trying to pick a fight? Again?"

The first time, they had been broken up by Virgin Boy himself. The second time, the bouncer at the pub had seen to it. They never really had gotten a chance to finish what they had started, but what was that to him anyway?

"You looking for me to break your nose again, good and proper?" She edged toward him, Merlin knew why. "Careful there, Smith, someone might think you get off on the violence."

Then someone would have thought exactly the right thing. Maybe it made him twisted, but for Zacharias Smith good, nay, even great sex was based on it being rough. Not that he was going to say that, he just smirked at her. Let her think what she wanted.

"Maybe I just don't like leaving things unfinished," he said settling on that because it was a more neutral place. "And maybe this time I won't go easy on you because you play dirty." Which admittedly he liked. Not to mention after today, he could just a distraction and Ginny Weasley? Well, she could give him just what he needed - blood and all.

"What's there to finish, Smith? I already broke your nose. Already improved on your flat."

She remembered straddling him, scrabbling at his hair, his face, trying to break something, maybe break him. And then Virgin Boy broke it up before they saw just how it might have ended.

Best not to think about that though.

"You looking for me to break something else?"

"I don't know. I clearly remember both times someone having to break us up before we could get to the real good parts." Strictly speaking, Zacharias didn't even need to start with the fight, they could jump right into the good stuff. There would be plenty of fighting then anyway.

"And I think you liked it because you haven't backed off yet, so what's this?" He crossed over just into the edges of her space, not quite imposing, but closer than most people preferred. "Some little dance to justify what comes next?"

This was the part of the dance where the best option really was to withdraw and go home. After all, standing on the street and arguing with Zacharias Smith was hardly anyone's definition of a good time. Not to mention she was completely wasting her breath on talking to him at all.

"And what, in your mind, comes next?" He was standing too close to be comfortable, but not close enough that she felt the need to put her hands on him. To push him away. "What dance are we dancing?"

Zacharias smirked. The way he saw it, he was quickly approaching a no-lose situation. He couldn't have engineered this better if he had done it intentionally. It was perhaps there was some sort of cosmic balance left in the universe because the world might give him the thing growing in Marietta's stomach, but in tern it also gave him this.

"Oh, I think you know the steps," he said before closing the rest of the space between them. Without any warning, he reached forward slamming his mouth against hers. Some people might call it a kiss and on some extent it was that, but it was also so much more. It was a risk, but worst case he could just blame it on the alcohol. Not that he was particularly drunk, but it was always a good excuse.

For a second - maybe a couple of brief seconds - she almost let herself go with it. Almost leaned into it. And then rationality slapped her in the face and she remembered she was standing in the middle of the street, Zacharias Smith's mouth on hers, and what the hell was wrong with that picture?

She punched him in the stomach.

"What the fuck, Smith?" She backed up a few steps, glaring at him, breathless and angry all at once. "What the hell is wrong with you?"

Like he said a win either way and with just a little bit more. A kiss with a fist was better than none, except it was more that. It held the promise of something more - something that would fully satisfy that itch he had and get him out of his head.

"The same thing that's wrong with you I suppose." She had seemed on the verge of kissing him back and he didn't think that was all just gut reaction. "Except I'm not afraid to take it. I suppose that makes me more the Gryffindor here." Not that he was ever anything close to the picture of an ideal Hufflepuff in practice, despite whoever his ancestors might be.

"You're a right arsehole, you know that?"

She pushed him. For a reaction, to get him away from her, just to see where it went. Who knew? But it seemed like the right and rational thing to do, especially when rationality seemed to have taken a stroll around the block right then.

"What do you want to take? What are you looking for, Smith?" Another push. He wanted a fight? She could give him a fight, no mistake.

What did he want? He didn't want to have to explain what he wanted, he just wanted it given to him and if not given then at least something he could take without much of a struggle. Zacharias didn't just want a fight, but if that was the sort of foreplay she needed to get to the good stuff, well, he could go through those motions. He certainly just needed to turn his brain off.

"Hit me," he said. He stood there palms open at his side, needing something more than her inefficient little shoves. "Go ahead, hit the arse who got found with your dead boyfriend, proving that you're better than me. I mean you want to break my nose, why the hesitation? I'm starting to think you've lost your edge."

She saw red.

That term had always seemed so stupid, so random, until Zacharias Smith was standing there, taunting her about Harry and encouraging her to hit him. And dammit, who the hell was she not to comply when the dumb fucker was asking for it? Begging for it even? Not even a hex, but a hit?

Bring it.

She slammed her fist into his nose, reveling in the shock of red and the expression on his face and the fact that maybe it would shut him the hell up for a minute. And just in case it didn't, just in case he needed to hear himself talk some more, she tackled him to the ground.

"You want edge?" She went for another hit, another anything. "What are you looking for, Smith? What are you looking for that you keep finding me?"

He could have blocked the punch easier, he could have fought back, but that wasn't what he wanted. Zacharias wanted her cocky, sure of herself and her ability to take him down. It made her sort of electric and that was something. As he hit the ground, he was able to brace himself to not slam his head into the pavement.

A dry laugh slipped from him as she spoke. "Oh love, you're the one who keeps coming after me. All twisted and turned up, but you like this you just can't admit it." He was repeating things from earlier, but they were still true. "You think it's safer if you're the one on top." Which was fine by him, better even, as long as it wasn't gentle.

And just to prove he wasn't going to completely lay there and take it, he looped his legs around hers to give him the leverage to flip them over, letting her hit the ground hard. "But I've never been one for safe." Balancing on one hand, he wiped the blood from his face. Merlin, he didn't even care that he was in public, that just made it hotter.

"What do you know about being on top, Smith?"

Her hands gripped his collar, but she hadn't decided what she wanted to do to him yet. She didn't get the chance to figure out though; two seconds later, her back hit pavement and she let out a gasp.

She wasn't totally winded, but she let her hands do the talking, yanking at whatever she could, taking a swipe at his stupid, bloody face. Whatever she could get to. Whatever felt good.

"And safe? Outside is safe. This is plenty safe."

He laughed at her description of safe. Outside wasn't safe. It was public, very public, and there was blood now. Safe didn't exist. And Zacharias Smith really didn't want to feel safe, he wanted the chaos of it. He needed something to lose himself in.

"Well, then I would hate for you to get comfortable." Shifting his weight so he had her pinned down with his legs, he reached for his wand. With her clawing at his face it would be a bit of an extra challenge to apparate, but not impossible. "What do you say to a round two?" He asked before he apparated them both back to his flat.
