Beautiful Secret!
Okay, I've changed and added to this chapter A lot and another one will be up soon, promise x
Hermione Granger sat on the grass in a park watching her 4 best friends (in the muggle world). Not that she would ever say anything but she felt a little left out. Could you blame her? She had been gone for 4 years without so much as a letter every so often. Though she was a Gryffindor, she also felt slightly out of place as the hates the colours red and gold and would much rather have green. (not that she would say anything). Her friends came and sat beside her, still giggling from the race they had and began talking to her and catching up.
It was all going fantastically well, for the first time in years Hermione felt relaxed. Suddenly her friends all turned round, whispering to each other about a boy, letting Hermione know how absolutely hot he was. And how he was walking their way! Hermione felt thrilled, she could try out a new her, the non bookworm, sexy her... her friends hushed up and she could tell he was nearing, she didn't turn around of course... that would be too obvious. She sensed his presence behind her and was readying herself to turn round when a set of pale, muscular arms wrapped around her and a spine tingling familiar voice whispered,
"Hello beautiful."
Hermione's friends blushed and squealed, however Hermione stayed silent. This was NOT a voice she ever liked hearing, especially in front of her muggle friends. She could not be held responsible for her actions around him.
"Malfoy..." she snarled, glaring at the ground. She was furious that he would come here, to her muggle town in muggle England.
"Now, now my dear, no need to get feisty, I haven't done anything yet." He replied in a patronising tone. How she loathed him and his pureblood ideology.
"You two know each other?" Amelia, her friend asked, "How did you not tell us you know a 'Sex God'? Well...?"
Hermione was stuck for words, unfortunately Malfoy wasn't, "We went to the same school, she was the 'Princess of Gryffindor' and I was the 'prince of Slytherin'"
All of Hermiones friends had extremely confused looks on their faces. "What? You never told us you were popular," her friend Toria asked, breaking the silence. "And what are Gryffindor and Slytherin. And will you finally tell us who 'Malfoy' is!" Her other friend Keira exclaimed! Hermione could tell her friends were getting agitated and would need answers, and soon!
"Draco Malfoy", he stuck out his hand, "Heir of the Lord Malfoy. And im afraid I need to talk to your friend Hermione."
"Feel free," her other friend Isabella said, talking to Malfoy, but as Hermione walked off she whispered, "He's a hottie! How do you do it?"
"What are you doing here?" Hermione Hissed, Burning holes with her eyes.
"Calm down, I have some news to tell you and you won't like it." He looked over to her asking to continue, she nodded and he went on.
"Uncle Severus- I mean Professor Snape, had to go through heartbreak like no other 15 years ago, His beautiful daughter was kidnapped by Albus Dumbledore. You see, Dumbledore is manipulating you, and your precious Potty and Weasel are in on it too. All Tom is trying to do is bring Dumbledore to an end. There is no Voldemort, it's the headmaster in disguise. Anyway, you are Snapes kidnapped daughter, Reese Hermione Snape. Tom is your godfather, and you are my betrothed. Do you want to come and live with your family? I promise we are nothing like what you think. Please?"
Hermione broke down crying, it was all too much, and could she really believe what he was saying. He hadn't said anything horrible to her yet. Draco saw her begin to cry and panicked, he cautiously walked over and put his strong arms around her, she immediately calmed down. He asked whether she wanted to go back to her friends, she said that was a good idea but asked if she could go home with him.
Hermione's friends jumped up at the sight of her tear stained face, mobbing her with their questions of worry, Draco spoke for her and told them she had been told some devastating news and that he would take her home!
Draco took Hermione back to her house so that they could floo to the manor, fortunately Hermione didn't have to face her 'parents' as they were at a dentists convention in America. As Draco carried her home, he whispered soothing words into her ear. They arrived out of the fireplace only to be ambushed by his sobbing mother, his very flustered father, a very excited auntie Bella, an emotional Snape and an extremely overjoyed Tom Riddle. This was the day they had been waiting for; Severus Snape was finally reunited with his daughter.
"Reese, My beautiful little girl, I have missed you so much." Snape cried, "Don't ever leave me again; I couldn't handle it. I love you, please forgive me!"
(Severus will be the only one to call Hermione, Reese)
Hermione, slightly startled by her professors reaction, stuttered, "O-of c-c-course, I'm just shocked that Harry and Ronald would do this, why didn't you tell me earlier? Prof-"She trailed of, not quite sure what to call him. Sensing she was unsure about what to refer to him as, he told her it was her choice, he called his dad father in public and dad in private, though she could choose. He told her if she didn't want that, she could still call him professor Snape or Severus.
"Okay dad! Can I please stay with you? I don't really have anywhere else to go." Hermione asked, seeing the evident smile on her father's face as she called him Dad. He told her that she was always welcome. Hermione embraced her father in an emotional hug; seeing this, Draco, joined in, not wanting to be left out. His mother and Bellatrix laughed at this, hoping his friendship with 'Mione would blossom into something bigger.
"Don't they look so cute together," Narcissa cooed, "How adorable."
Bellatrix smiled, replying, "I can see it now, I just hope he treats her right. She deserves a gentleman."
Tom, who had been quiet the whole time, stirred. Everyone hushed and looked towards him.
"I'm sorry..." Tom began, but Hermione stopped him, she gave him a strong hug, telling him with force that he had nothing to be sorry for. They all knew that Hermione would need to give Ron and Harry a piece of her mind and they would definitely be going with her, followed by a band of aurors.
"Honey," Severus started, "I'm afraid we can't do anything about potter and his crew until we have hard evidence, however if you so wish you can request a re-sorting and go into another house? I promise that we Slytherins are not quite as bad as we are made out to be."
"Okay Daddy," a smiling Hermione replied, "Just one more question, who's my mum? Oh and where am I going to sleep?" Her professor
"your mother was the love of my life, she was a beautiful woman with such a pure heart, unfortunately the headmaster couldn't bear to see such true love and ordered James Potter-" there was hissing from the rest of the people in the room, "-and ordered him to steal her; so he put a spell on her and she forgot everything..." everyone was crying, including Hermione. She rushed up to her father and embraced him in a comforting hug.
"I want to go to the burrow to get my things, I promise I will act like I know nothing but there are things there that I had left earlier on this summer. Her father nodded but said that she would have to bring Tom with her; he would be in disguise as her father. Hermione agreed that this would be a good plan and grabbing hold of Toms arm, they apparated to the Burrow.
