Chapter 2
"Damn you Malfoy!"
(Seven hours ago)
"Harry!" Hermione cried out as she clutched a piece of parchment in her hand. "No…No…" She slid down the balcony wall as tears ran down her tanned cheeks. She opened the crumbled letter to read again…surely her eyes must be deceiving her.
Dear Miss Granger,
I'm so sorry to say that Mr. Potter has been captured. He was extremely brave but, in the end, was caught by Lucius Malfoy. He was taken to a secret base, according to our insider.
Once again Miss Granger, I'm terribly sorry.
Yours Truly,
Theodore Flitwick
Although the letter seemed monotonous, the ink was blurred with tears not from Hermione.
Hermione ran back into the Heads' common room, dashing past a dozing Draco (whom she didn't notice), crashing her entire weight into the sofa; the sofa teetering on its legs, thumping loudly enough to wake the sleeping Head Boy.
"What the bloody Merlin is going on, Granger?!" Shouted an appalled Draco.
Hermione didn't respond, she just stayed buried into the crease of the couch, her sobbing gasps hitting Draco's ears. "Gr-Granger?" He whispered, concerned. He had never seen Hermione cry.
"Granger? Are you alright?" He got up, gently shaking her. She smacked his hand away, looking deep into his silver irises, a flame of pure hatred glowed in her eyes, Draco noticed, before she pounced on him. "Dammit Granger!" Draco struggled to get Hermione off of him. After a few minutes, she collapsed on top of him, her body limp and her breathing not heard. Did she kill herself or something? Draco tried to get up, but her tiny hands were clinging onto his robes. He saw the piece of parchment that she had in her hand on the floor beside him. His eyes opened wide.
"No…"
"Damn you Malfoy!" Hermione sobbed. "Damn you and this damned war!"

Sorry for making this so short, I promise that the next chapter will be much longer. This was kind of just a filler, so you'd know what happened to Harry. I might put up another one tomorrow morning or tonight so I can start with the real show. Oh, and please review! I want to know what you think! And tell me what you want to see in the story. A little more romance? A tad more smut later on? Some gore? A lot of Hermione and Draco arguing?
But, for right now, how about a tasty tidbit and a few questions?
-"Hermione, I'm carrying his child."
-"You two have to draw the Dark Lord to Hogwarts"
-"He can't stand love! Just go with that!"
-"How can you stand that Muttblood?" "Muttblood?"
-"No…please...I'm not ready for that yet, Draco…"
Interesting? Review.
