A/N: This chapter contains strong topics. It's part of the story but I won't be going into any details about it. I know this probably doesn't make any sense but once you read the chapter you'll understand. So, you were warned.

Pairing: Dramione

Chapter 13:

Hermione's POV:

I spend the entire night pacing the flat. I can't sleep, nor do I want to. It's been almost a year and a half since I've seen him. When I told everyone I was pregnant, I told them it was a one night stand, but that isn't true. Yes, we only saw each other once, when he raped me. After he raped me I tried to forget. I didn't tell anyone, I was too embarrassed. Then, I found out I was pregnant. I couldn't go through with an abortion, so I assumed adoption would be the only option. I was certain I could never love someone born from my rape. And then she was born. Throughout my entire pregnancy I was lonely and depressed. I was still recovering from the rape and it still hurt to lie to everyone, but when she was born and I held her in my arms for the first time I realized I didn't want anyone else taking care of her. That was the day my depression stopped. I had to be there for my daughter. I named her Autumn because it means clever mindset. I secured a job at St. Mungo's and set out to be the best mother for Autumn, because it wasn't her fault on how she was born.

After reliving the last year and a half in my mind all night I hear Autumn cry for her diaper. I get her ready and send a patronus to Harry and Ginny to have them watch Autumn. Then I send one to work saying I am ill. I need to come up with a plan before this afternoon. I drop Autumn off at her Uncle Harry's and start to formulate a plan. I can't tell the Wizengamot because there is no evidence of the rape except Autumn and I refuse to use her as evidence. She's my daughter, not a used tissue. The only way I could keep Autumn is go to the Wizengamot and say he's neglected his rights as a father. They would question him but he would be really stupid if he said he raped me. That's the only way I can think of to get out of this mess. I take a breath and walk into the nursery and take out Autumn's baby book. I sit in the rocking chair and flip through it. She's worth this entire mess. I would do anything to keep her away from Gabriel. There's a picture of me in the hospital of me holding her, one of her sleeping in her crib, etc. I have all her firsts photographed. I love her more than anything. At eleven I make myself get ready. I look less zombie-like after I finish and then I apparate to The Three Broomsticks.

I recognize him immediately. I will never forget his eyes. They're the greenest eyes I've ever seen. When he raped me he kept eye contact with me the entire time. That's why when I see him I drop my gaze. I never want to see those eyes again. I walk to the booth he is sitting at and sit down. I avoid his gaze.

"I see you didn't bring Autumn. Remember on Friday, I want her. Now tell me everything about her. I wouldn't leave anything out." He says in a scary tone. I bite back my fear and tell him the plan.

"The only way you will get my daughter is legally. You and I will go to the Wizengamot and make a case. Whatever they decide is final." It's a lie; if they give her to Gabriel I will move her and I to America and get new names. He won't touch her.

"Why would I do that?" he sneers.

"You may not know who I am but I am Harry Potter's best friend. If you don't do what I say I will tell him about you raping me and soon the entire Wizarding World and possibly the Muggle World will know what you've done and you'll spend the rest of your pathetic life rotting in Azkaban." He doesn't speak for several minutes and I'm pretty sure he's glaring at me but I can't be sure because I don't look up from the table. It's so quiet for so long it gets uncomfortable.

"Why wouldn't you ask for full rights for Autumn instead of going through the Wizengamot?" I don't know. I just need to prove to someone that Autumn needs me and I actually deserve Autumn.

"Do you agree or not?" I try to say confidently but my voice quavers.

"Yes."
