Hermione walked down to the potions classroom for her detention. She sighed and knocked on the classroom door, opening in when she heard 'enter' from the professor.

"Miss Granger please sit" Severus said motioning to the seat in front of his desk. "This is a slightly different detention this evening"

Hermione sat down nervously "What do I have to do professor"

Before Severus had the chance to respond Lucius Malfoy stepped through the fire "Severus"

"Lucius...I thought we agreed that I would contact you when I was ready" Severus replied

Lucius rolled his eye "You haven't told her then

"

Severus shook his head and turned to face Hermione "Miss Granger...the potion you completed this morning threw up some surprising results hence why I gave you the detention." Severus paused before continuing "The potion relieved your true parentage. I am aware that you know that you are adopted which is why I am telling you this"

Hermione looked puzzled "Why is Mr Malfoy here then?" She questioned

Severus looked at Lucius and sighed handing over the piece of parchment that had the details on "I assure you Miss Granger that this is correct I have checked three times"

Hermione looked at the piece of parchment and gasped "Miss G...Hermione I assure you that regardless of how my son has treated you and the rest of my family also, you are still my sister and a pureblood at that and I will stand by you no matter what...do you understand" She looked up at Lucius and nodded, smiling slightly.

Lucius nodded to Severus before turning back to Hermione "I will contact you tomorrow to discuss meeting our father Hermione, I must get back to Narcissa she'll want to know how the meeting went and how her sister in law is" Lucius smiled one last time before throwing some floo powder in the fire and steeping in.

"Miss Granger you will need to tell your friends about this soon" Severus told her "You may go"

Hermione nodded and turned to walk out the door, pausing she turned back to the professor. "Professor why was Mr Malfoy so clam about this?"

"I don't not know Miss Granger; also I suspect that he will request you to call him Lucius. After all you can't keep calling your brother Mr Malfoy" Severus replied with a smile

"Thank you professor" Hermione smiled back before heading back to Gryffindor tower wondering what tomorrow would bring.

The next day saw the whole of Hogwarts look at Hermione in shock as the Malfoy family owl landed in front of her.

Hermione,

Our father would like to request a meeting Saturday evening at 7.00pm. I am sure that any questions you have will be answered then. Narcissa has also requested that I tell you to call her either Narcissa or Cissy and I must insist on you calling me Lucius although I believe Severus may have already mentioned this.

Please go to Severus on Saturday at 6:30pm and even if you need a friend or someone to talk to about this, he will not turn you away. I will make sure of this.

Owl me if you need anything.

All my love

Your brother

Lucius

Hermione smiled and wrote a quick reply before sending the owl off and folding the letter and placing it in her pocket. She took a deep breath and looked up bracing herself for the questions.

"Oi Granger" Draco shouted across the hall, "What's my father owl doing with you?"

"Well obviously he doesn't want you to know or he would have sent one to you" Hermione replied before walking out the great hall not before asking Ron, Harry, Ginny and Neville to follow her.

Once outside the great hall Hermione took a deep breath "Guys...there's something I need to tell you"

"What's up Hermione?" Harry asked

"I found out who my parents are...I'm related to the Malfoy's...Lucius Malfoy is my brother" Hermione said quickly. She looked up to gauge her friend's reaction.

Ron, Harry and Ginny looked at her in shock and disgust. "I can't believe you hid this from us we're you're friends!" Ron shouted, "Come on Harry, Ginny, Neville let's get away from this traitor before she starts spilling out that pureblood are better"

Ron turned round and stalked off towards Gryffindor tower. "I'm sorry Hermione but we can't be friends anymore" Harry and Ginny said together before following Ron

Hermione turned to Neville "Neville you're still my friend right?"

"Of course Hermione, Just because you're a Malfoy doesn't mean that you're any different. Anyway I think we're related in some way. I remember my Gran saying something once." Neville replied smiling.

Hermione hugged Neville happily "Thank you Neville"

The two friends walked back into the great hall and sat back down at the Gryffindor table. Hermione looked up at the head table and smiled slightly at Severus when she saw him looking at her. He nodded at her before turning back to his breakfast.

In Hermione's opinion the rest of the week went slowly. 6:30 on Saturday evening saw Hermione heading down to the potions classroom, knocking on the door she slowly opened the door and smiled at Severus who was waiting for her.

"Miss Granger I take it things have been hard this past week with Potter and the two Weasley's?" he asked

"Yes it has sir" she replied

"Hermione call me Severus in private, after all you are my friends sister"

Hermione smiled and sat down opposite him before asking "When is Lucius coming here?"

Looking at his watch Severus replied "He should be here any minute now"

Moments later Lucius stepped through Severus's fireplace and smiled when he saw Hermione "You ready Hermione"

"Of course Lucius, I'll see you later Severus"

Severus nodded and watched the two step back into the fireplace, once gone he sighed at took out a bottle of fire whiskey before taking a big swig and placing his hands in his head.
