The Sweetest Sin.
"Draco get up, the meeting is in 5 minutes, if you aren't down there you'll get a beating you will never forget," Lucious said to his son, Draco groaned to let his father know he understood crystal clear.
He was use to early wake up calls since he got initiated as a Death Eater, but he didn't enjoy them, at all.
As Lucious apparated with a bang, Draco got up fiddled with his hair a bit and threw on his robes over his boxers, he walked over to his mirror, declared he was decent enough and left his room with wand in hand.

"Hermione, sweetie, wake up quick, Harry is missing!" Hermione's mother said as she nudged her daughter's arm awake, Hermione bolted up, "What do you mean Harry is missing!?" she said looking at her mother with half opened eyes, her mother went to the TV at the end of her bed and turned it to the news.
"17 year old boy goes missing in Surrey last night, the boy known as Harry Potter, nephew of Vernon and Petunia Dursley, the household was sleeping when there was a loud noise in the boy's room and when the Aunt and Uncle went to get inside, the door was locked and all they heard was him yelling and another man saying weird language, they finally got the door opened when he was gone with the boy. If you have seen anything or heard something about this please call-"
Hermione sat there with her knees under her chin with tears in her eyes motionless, her mother had her arm around her assuring her he would be fine that they would find him, Hermione shook her head, "It's not that easy, they don't know who they are dealing with, I have to get a hold of Ron," Hermione said getting out of bed and going to her little bathroom to change and fix up a bit.
When she came out her mother had already gotten the Floo Powder out from under her bed and her cloak, they both made their way down the stairs to the living room where the fireplace was, "I'll be back in a few hours mum, I just really need to talk to Ron," Hermione said stepping into the fireplace with a handful of the powder, "I understand, tell Ron I said hello," her mother stepped back away from the green flames as Hermione yelled The Burrow and disappeared.

"Have you heard from Harry lately dear?" Mrs. Weasley asked Ron while pouring him some pumpkin juice at breakfast, "No, and neither has 'Mione, but-" he didn't finish his sentence because of the roar of flames in the living room. The whole Weasley crew jumped up and ran to the living room to a very dusty and tired looking Hermione Granger.
"Mione, what are you doing here?" Ron asked going over to her to help her dust off the soot and ashes, "Harry's missing, I just heard it on the muggle news," Hermione said looking at Ron, he smirked, which she didn't expect, "He's not missing, he's at Hogwarts," he said brushing ashes off her hair, Hermione looked up at him, "What? But the news-" "No, that was just a diversion, so if Vol- well you-know-who would think someone had already gotten rid of him, or something I don't know the whole story but don't worry Mione he is fine," Ron finished then took her arm and led her to the kitchen, "Have you eaten yet?" Mrs. Weasley asked, "No, my mum woke me up to show me the news and I rushed here," Hermione said as Mrs. Weasley put a plate of sausages, bacon, pancakes and toast in front of her.
"Wow, this looks great, as usual, but I can't stay much longer I have to get home, mum and me are going out today together for some school shopping," Hermione said pouring syrup all over her plate, "Well you should come with us, we are going to Diagon Alley today too," Ron said finishing off his pancakes, Hermione shook her head, "No, we are going into the main part of London and buying different kinds of things for school and stuff, like muggle things," Hermione said taking a sip of pumpkin juice and eating a piece of bacon, "Why would you need muggle things, wait, you are still coming to Hogwarts, right?" Ron asked looking a little worried, Hermione laughed, "Don't worry Ron, I'm not going anywhere, I just want to get a few things is all," she said getting up and rinsing her plate.
"Thanks for the breakfast Mrs. Weasley, but I have to be getting home now," Hermione said, "Well, we'll see you soon I hope, keep in touch dear," Mrs. Weasley said giving her a hug and a kiss on the head, then handing her some Floo Powder, Hermione stepped into the fireplace, and with one last wave to the red haired family she disappeared into the ashes.

"You did well today my son," Lucious said as him and Draco walked up from the dungeons of their mansion covered in blood, "Thank you father," Draco said but not really meaning it, he felt disgusted in himself, he had killed 10 muggles in the past week, sure the first few were fun but now it was just boring and gruesome sometimes.
"Take a shower and meet me in the library, we are going to London today to get your school things," Lucious said taking a right as Draco took a left. When he entered his room he thought of nothing except falling into bed, but not with the bloody robes he was wearing, and his father was right, he needed a shower, he took off his robes and threw them on the floor and headed to his bathroom and ran the water as hot as possible.
He just stood there for awhile under the scalding water, just letting the gross feeling go down the drain, then he started to wash. Stepping out of the shower and putting a towel around his waste he went out into his room, the robe was gone and his bed was made, he looked at his door, then in one fleeting second he ran and jumped on his bed landing face first on his pillow, and just laid there.
"Draco! Your father is waiting for you in the Library are you done yet?" Narcissa said tapping lightly on the door, Draco sat up, he must have fallen asleep, "Yeah, um hold on mum, I'm almost ready, I'll be down in a minute!" He jumped out of bed and threw on clothes and grabbed a robe and dashed down the stairs, tripping on the last step and ran to the library.
"What took so long?" Lucious said from behind a piece of parchment, "S-sorry father, l-lost track of time I guess, it won't happen again," Draco said holding his side, "I should hope not," Lucious said putting the parchment into a drawer and locked it, "Come son," he said, and they walked to a bookshelf and disappeared behind it, coming right out into the Leaky Cauldron.

Hermione landed on her butt in the fireplace in her living room, her mother jumped up from the couch and ran over and helped her up and brush off some of the soot, "Well? Where is he? Is he alright?" Her mother asked brushing her cheeks, "He's fine mum, he's at Hogwarts, it was just a diversion I guess, or something, but he's fine," Hermione said, "Oh, ok well go get changed and showered and we will go out then alright?" Her mother said with a smile, she smiled to, "Ok,".
She ran up the stairs into her room, threw off the robe, and stopped, there was a barn owl on her bed with 3 letters in his beak, "Oh um, well I don't have anything to give you but, oh wait hold on," she ran down to the kitchen and grabbed a pop-tart and went back to her room, "Erm, well here," she said handing it, the owl dropped the letter, took the pop-tart, hooted then flew out her window.
She picked up the letter, two of them were in Hogwarts writing, and the other was Harry's in a Hogwarts envelope, she tore open Harry's first and read it,
Hermione,
I'm sure you have seen the news, and don't worry I'm fine, although I'm sure Ron has already told you all about it anyway, I'm spending the remainder of the summer here, I hope your summer is going well, I'll see you soon and I miss you.
Love,
Harry
Hermione folded the letter back together then opened the first Hogwarts one, it was a list of books and supplies for this year, and another letter on the back about N.E.W.T.S, she skimmed through the list and then read carefully about the N.E.W.T.S, she wasn't that nervous about them, she has been studying for them since she got into Hogwarts, she was ready.
She put the letter on her nightstand and opened the last one, it was from Professor Dumbledore,
Dear Hermione,
I'm proud to announce that you are this years Head Girl, since the rise of Voldemort, we are giving the Head's an enclosed room for themselves and private lessons of Advanced Defense Against the Dark Arts classes, to train you up against powerful forces. You and the Head Boy are to meet in compartment 12 on the Hogwarts Express, September 1st to discuss topics with Professor McGonagal. Congratulations again and enjoy the rest of your summer.
Sincerely,

She put the letter down slowly, grabbed her pillow and brought it to her face and screamed.
