Song: Ignorance – Paramore
. . .
if i'm a bad person, you don't like me
i guess i'll go, make my own way
it's a circle
a mean cycle
i can't excite you anymore
where's your gavel? your jury?
what's my offense this time?
you're not a judge but if you're gonna judge me
well sentence me to another life.
Harry Potter did not like Draco Malfoy one bit. He just couldn't see what was so good about him. Malfoy had been torturing them since their first year at Hogwarts, so why would he like him?
He was only agreeing to this to help Hermione and to keep an eye on Malfoy because someone had to. Everyone else trusted Malfoy, and maybe that was part of his plan.
Harry still could not believe that Hermione said that she loved him. What if she had been under the Imperious Curse and no one knew it except for Malfoy?
"Hurry up," Hermione said, "we have class in 10 minutes!"
Okay, so maybe she wasn't under the Imperious curse.
Harry, Ginny, Hermione, Malfoy and Ron were walking towards the astronomy tower where they could talk in private. They would have stayed in the Gryffindor tower, but who knows who else would be listening in on their conversation.
When they got up to the tower, Hermione held on to Draco tighter, remembering the hurtful memory of their split here.
Draco put his arm around Hermione's waist and kissed her cheek.
"I won't let you go." Draco whispered, his lips gently brushing her ear.
"I know." Hermione said, putting her head on his shoulder.
Harry almost gagged.
They all sat down in a circle.
"Okay, so what are we going to do?" Ginny asked.
"We're going to keep Hermione safe from lots of pain." Draco answered automatically.
"Well, you could always use the killing curse, I heard it was painless." Hermione said.
"That's not what I meant at all." Draco said, holding her tighter against his body.
"It was just a suggestion, you know, to keep you guys from getting hurt." Hermione said.
"Yeah, but we're not worrying about us we're worrying about you, Hermione." Ron said.
don't wanna hear your sad songs
i don't wanna feel your pain
when you swear it's all my fault
cause you know we're not the same
oh we're not the same
the friends who stuck together
we wrote our names in blood
but i guess you can't accept that the change is good
it's good
Hermione smiled.
"Well, you could always hide her." Ginny suggested.
"No matter where we hide her, the Dark lord will find her." Draco said.
"Wonderful." Ron said sarcastically.
"Besides, I would have to hide with her." Draco said.
"What? Why? So you can take advantage of her?" Harry asked.
"What are you talking about? I'm trying to save her, Potter! I would never do that to her." Draco growled angrily.
"Yeah right you-"
"Harry Potter!" Ginny shouted in a voice so cold it sent shivers down Harry's spine.
"Um, yes?" Harry whimpered.
"He is in love with Hermione. He would never try to hurt her. That's why he's risking everything he has to be with her!" Ginny shouted at him.
"Oh, I…um…" Harry mumbled.
"So what are we going to do?" Ron asked.
"Well Harry doesn't trust Draco if we go into hiding, so I say we fight." Hermione replied.
"Wait…what?" Harry asked.
"You heard me. I don't want to hide, Harry. I want to fight." Hermione answered.
"But…but you could get hurt! Or die!" Draco argued.
"As long as I have you, I'll be just fine." Hermione said, looking lovingly into his silver eyes.
you treat me just like another stranger
well it's nice to meet you sir
i guess i'll go
i best be on my way out
ignorance is your new best friend
this is the best thing that could've happened
any longer and i wouldn't have made it
it's not a war no, it's not a rapture
i'm just a person but you can't take it
the same tricks that once fooled me
they won't get you anywhere
i'm not the same kid from your memory
now i can fend for myself
Draco nodded.
"So what are we going to do? Go looking for Voldemort?" Harry asked sarcastically.
Draco, Ginny and Ron flinched at the name.
"No." Hermione said.
"Then what are we going to do?" Harry asked.
"They're coming here." Draco answered.
"What?" Ron, Harry and Ginny asked.
Hermione already knew that they were going to be coming here because with her gone, Harry and Ron would be a mess and what would be a better time to strike?
"They're going to try to take Hogwarts." Draco said.
"But, why?" Ginny asked.
"Because if I killed Hermione, Potter and Weasley would be a mess and easier to fight and kill." Draco answered.
"When are they coming and how?" Harry asked.
"Through a vanishing cabinet in the Room of Requirement. They will come the day after I tell them that Granger is dead. Probably around midnight." Draco answered.
"I knew it! He's spying on us! He's got a plan to trick us! How else would he know all of this?" Harry shouted.
"He wouldn't tell us if he was a spy." Hermione said.
Harry flushed.
"Oh, right." Harry said.
Hermione looked at her watch.
"On no! We've got class in three minutes!" she shouted.
"So?" Ron asked.
"We've got to get going!" Hermione said, getting up.
"We have potions." Draco said.
"How do you know and why do you have potions?" Harry asked suspiciously.
"Gryffindor and Slytherin have combined potions class together you twit." Draco answered.
"Harry, you have to start trusting him." Hermione said.
"Why should I trust him?" Harry challenged.
"Because I do." Hermione answered.
Then, she spun on her heel and walked down the stairs with Draco following closely behind.
"I can't believe the way Harry is treating you." Hermione said.
"'S okay." Draco said.
"It is?" Hermione asked.
"Yeah, I mean I wouldn't trust him either." Draco said.
Hermione smirked.
don't wanna hear your sad songs
i don't wanna feel your pain

They ran off to get their potions books and rushed into class together, a minute late.
When they burst through the door, Snape turned to them.
"Malfoy and Granger. What are you two doing together? And why are you late?" Snape asked.
"He tried to trip me in the hall on my way here, so I pushed him and then he pushed me, so then I pushed him, so then he pushed me and so I pushed him back and then he-" Hermione lied, but was cut off by Professor Snape.
"Enough." Snape said, uninterested in their story.
"Five points from Slytherin and Gryffindor for being late." Snape said.
Both nodded and walked to their seats.
A few moments later, Harry and Ron burst through the door.
"And what is your excuse for being late?" Snape asked.
"What?" Ron asked dumbly.
"We ran into some rather nasty Bogart's." Harry said remembering something Luna had said about them.
Snape narrowed his eyes at them suspiciously.
"Twenty points from Gryffindor. Now have a seat." Snape said.
The Gryffindors groaned.
Harry and Ron took a seat.
Hermione looked at Draco.
He met her gaze.
They both smiled.
And Blaise snickered.
. . .
Thanks again for all of the reviews.
Oh and um I don't know if Draco's eyes
are silver or not so um, if you know,
please tell me but I think they're silver.
Hope you liked it. Review it!
