Draco stared at Hermione as she confessed to him what has been going on with her, he had no idea what to say, what do you say to someone when they just told you that there father beats them, there is nothing to say.
Draco looked at Hermione whose head was down and saw hot tears hit the ground, "Hermione," Draco said as he got on his knees next to her, she continued to look at the ground and Draco did the first thing that came to mind he pulled her into a hug, and rubbed his hand in circles on her back as she cried on his chest.
As Draco rubbed Hermione's back he thought about how she trusted him by telling him her deepest darkest secret and he droughts that those so-called friends of hers know about, no one had ever put that much trust in him before, he though if she could trust him after all the things that he did to her over the past seven year that he should put some trust in her for once.
After a few more minuets Draco finally decided to speak.
"My dad…" Draco started, and Hermione slowly moved her head from his chest and looked at him in the eyes.
Draco continued "My dad use to hit my mum, and he would make me watch. I had to watch as my dad continuously beat and raped her, I would try to get him off of her, I try punching, screaming, I even threaten him saying I would tell someone what he is doing and all I got for that is a punch in the face or what ever was closer to him and he would say if I told anyone that he would personally force me to watch him torture and then kill mum then he would do the exact same thing to me, so I shut my mouth I didn't tell a soul." Draco looked over at Hermione and saw tears flow down her eyes.
"There was 2 weeks left till I had to go back to school and my dad came home piss drunk screaming about something I don't remember, all I know is that I am getting dragged by the hair into my parents bedroom, where my mum just so happened to be sleeping. That night was the worst my dad raped my mum then he…" Draco stopped there were tears in his eyes, he tried to blink them away but every time he closed his eyes he saw what his dad did, it replayed in his mind like it was just yesterday.
Hermione looked up and Draco she had never seen him like this never, she slowly brought her hand up to his face, and forced him to look at her, and when he did she was pain, hurt, anger, she felt sorry for him, but she was also curious as to what his dad did.
Hermione pulled Draco into a hug with surprised him, he had never been hugged, OK so maybe girl have hugged him to get him attention but none of them had ever hug him like this, like they cared what was going on with him, and he liked the way it felt.
They stayed like that for a good amount of time till Hermione's stomach decided that it need food and it growled but Hermione and Draco laughed at that.
"So let me guess your hungry?" Draco said with a smirk
Hermione smiled at him and nodded "It looks like it" she looked over at her clock and saw the dinner was almost over.
The two of the got off the floor and headed to the great hall Draco did a quick spell on himself so it did not look like he as crying before he heading into the great hall.
Hermione on the other hand forgot that she had been crying and headed straight into the great hall and sat at her normal spot in-between Harry and Ron and Ginny was across from her.
She greeted the group and started to pill food on her plat she had chicken, mashed potatoes, and a salad, and she started to eat when Ginny asked her why she had tear stains on her cheeks which caught the attention of Harry and Ron who were just arguing over who was going to win the Quiddith World Cup this year England or Ireland but they stopped talking when Ginny asked Hermione why she had tear stains on her cheek.
"Why were you crying Mione?" Ginny asked
"I wasn't crying"
"Yes you were." Harry said
"No I wasn't"
"Come on Mione what's wrong Malfoy bugging you, do you want us to give him a good beating." Ron said as he pretended to punch his hand.
"Will You Three Leave Me Alone." Hermione yelled which caused the entire great hall to stop what they were doing and stare at her
"Damn it" she thought
"I am suddenly not hungry anymore, bye." she said as she left the great hall and three very confused friends and one very confused slytherin.
After about a good ten minutes Draco excused himself from the table and headed to find Hermione, he checked the library since he knows that she loves it so much but she was not the he search anywhere he thought she could be till he finally gave up and headed back to the heads dorm he thought that she had to come back sooner or later.
When he got into the dorm he heard someone playing the piano and he know right away that it was Granger he walked up the stairs to her room and opened the door.
I can remember the very first time I cried Starin at the cracks in the walls Do you even know who you are? Lyin awake watchin the sunlight Im lookin for a way to become Do you even know who you are?
How I wiped my eyes and buried the pain inside
All of my memories - good and bad - thats past
Didnt even take the time to realize
Cuz Im waiting for it all to come to an end
Still I curl up right under the bed
Cuz its takin over my head all over again
I guess Im tryin to find
A borrowed dream or a superstar?
I want to be a star
Is life good to you or is it bad?
I cant tell anymore
Do you even know what you have?
How the birds will sing as I count the rings
Around my eyes
Constantly pushing the world I know aside
I dont even feel the pain, I dont even want to
Try
The person that I dreamt of when I was sixteen
Oh, nothin is ever enough
Ooh, baby, it aint enough for what it may seem
Im still tryin to find
A borrowed dream or a superstar?
Everybody wants to be
Is life good to you or is it bad?
I cant tell anymore
Do you even know what you have?
No
Sorry girl, tell a tale for me Do you even know who you are?
Cuz Im wondering how you really feel
Im a lonely girl, Ill tell a tale for you
Cuz Im just tryin to make all my dreams come
True
Oh, yeah, yeah
A borrowed dream or a superstar?
Oh, I wanted to be a star
Is life good to you or is it bad?
I cant tell, I cant tell anymore
Do you even know what you have?
I guess not, oh I guess not
Do you even know who you are?
Oh, Im tryin to find
A rising dream or a superstar?
Oh, I have a all these dreams
Is life good to you or is it bad?
I cant tell anymore
Do you even know what you have?
No, no
Do you even know what you are?
A rising dream or a fallen star?
Is life good to you or is it bad?
When Hermione finished she found herself in someone's arms, she knew exactly who's it was and she smiled and wrapped her arms around his waist and cried.
AN: So what do you think? I know that is has been awhile but I could not come up with any good ideas so I hope you like this chapter it kinda just came to me so it might not be that good.
I all ready know what Draco's dad did but I might not tell you till maybe chapter 5 or 6 I have not decided, but if you can guess what it is that I might let you have an appearance in my story and you can tell me what you look like and how you play apart in the story so guess away.
The song in this chapter is Lonely Girl By Pink
Remember To Read and Review and you will get a cookie!!
