Chapter 10
Voldermort's Visit
Hermione opened her eyes and went to sit up, though there was something restraining her. After a quick glance to her side she saw him there. Her first reaction was to gasp and push him away immediately, though after a second Hermione looked past his outer appearance and saw whom she had really fallen in love with.
As she gently held onto the gold pendant around her neck she began to think about the situation they were in, analyse it for what she knew would occur when people found out.
'Is staying here the right thing?' Hermione thought to herself as she stared at him, this maybe be what her heart wanted though her head was telling her to just leave and not look back.
Hermione was torn; she knew there was no middle choice, a bit of each. This was a clear black and white decision. Though not only was this choice revolving around the man sleeping beside her but also her friends and fellow members of the Order, staying with Draco would probably have them alienate her from them. Staying with him was siding with the enemy. Would she be able to make it through the war without Harry and Ron support? She knew she had done it for the last 2 years though that was different for she had the order behind her then and in a way their support through the order.
Hermione realised it was a choice of love, her and Draco's relationship or life, the life she had lived with her friends in the order would be gone she would have to begin all over again. Hermione did not want to give either up.
Though Hermione had to push her thoughts aside as Draco began to stir.
&&&
When Draco awoke the first thing he saw was her smiling face, when he saw this he couldn't help but return the smile, it was contagious. Though then he saw something in her eyes, a look of pain and contemplation. And his smile faltered, he knew she had realised that she had to make a choice. Knowing that she would want some space he kissed her gently on the cheek before getting up and offering to make breakfast for them.
Once Draco was in the kitchen he grabbed his wand from the kitchen table and cleared away the mess on the floor that they had caused the night before.
Draco smiled as he thought back to the previous nights escapades. With everything fixed and back where it originally was Draco went to the fridge to see what food there was. Though before he could get past the contents of the door of the fridge he heard a loud crash from the living room, where he had just left her.
Quickly he ran to see what had caused the commotion. When he arrived Draco skidded to a sudden halt. Voldermort was standing in his living room staring at Hermione. Draco glanced over and saw that she was disguised as Diane. Draco let a sigh of relief before turning his attention back to Voldermort.
"My lord" he began, "and what do I owe the pleasure of your presence this morning?" he said with as little sarcasm in his voice as possible. One glance at Voldermort told him that he would overlook this little slip this time.
&&&
Hermione knew that she had been very lucky. When the mark had begun to burn she knew something was wrong and had quickly changed back into Diane seconds before Voldermort had appeared, and Draco seconds after him.
She knew that both of them were walking on thin ice especially since Draco was not in his disguise as John. Though before she was able to say anything Voldermort spoke.
"Well Draco you had better have an explanation for you be out of your disguise." Voldermort snarled at Draco. Hermione began to panic she knew they would need a miracle to get out of this, just as she went to speak Draco bet her there.
&&&
"My lord" Draco began, "I removed my disguise to Diane so as to prove that I was one of your loyal supporters just as she is." With this said Draco then paused and waited for Voldermort's response.
"And why would she need to know this?" he inquired. This time Hermione bet him to answer this question.
"My lord, with me as his wife I can infiltrate the order as well a lot quicker as he is already in and with both of us on the inside we you will have more of a chance of learning the orders plans quicker." She explained. Draco couldn't help but admire her she had always been quick on her feet, and in front of the Dark Lord, 'damn she's good' he thought before looking over at Voldermort to see his response.
Just before Voldermort went to speak he spotted something on Hermione that seemed to catch his attention. "Fine though I had better see results," he said quickly before apparating off in a hurry.
Draco paled something had gotten to the Dark Lord and as he looked over at Hermione he saw that she was thinking exactly the same thing.
&&&
Hermione knew that something bout her had bothered him though she was unsure as to what. As Draco walked over he stopped suddenly, Hermione looked up.
"What?" she asked him as he stood there, then she followed Draco's gaze and saw what had probably caught Voldermort's attention.
As they looked up and their eyes met they knew whom they had to see, running up the stairs the pair quickly dressed before apparating away.
they knew that there wasn't much time left...
