of my story: All I Really Want.
Chapter 5: Detention
The next week or so was rather uneventful for Hermione. She hadn't received any new letters, or had any new projects in school. There wasn't much to do to keep her mind off things.
Hermione sat in Snape's dungeon, thinking about the vast amount of books she could check out of the library to entertain herself, when her greasy haired professor made and announcement.
"Attention class. Pull out your books and turn to page 142. See this potion," Hermione looked down at her page and read the heading. She smiled, the words POLYJUICE POTION were scrawled among it. "Not only will you memorize this spell, but you will have to brew it, know it inside and out, experience it, and have to write a paper on your experiences." The class groaned. Snape turned to the chalkboard to write down the assignment. Hermione's hand shot excitedly up in the air. "Ms. Granger." Snape stated, not bothering to turn around to face the classroom.
"How many parchments must this paper be?"
"It was going to be ten, but since you have no patience, lets make it fifteen." He sneered.
Hermione smiled again, inwardly. She already knew almost everything there was to know about the polyjuice potion and this was going to give her something to do during the evenings.
"Alright, for this project I will be assigning partners. And if I hear one complaint from anyone-" He paused and stared at Ron and Harry, "Detention with me for a week." He pulled out a long roll of parchment and began reading off the names. "Parkinson, Pansy and Granger, Hermione." She heard him read off after paring Harry with Neville and Ron with Draco. Hermione cringed, Pansy Parkinson looked like a pug, and she acted like one too.
Hermione walked over to Pansy's table, for Pansy made no attempt to make her way to Hermione. Hermione pulled her cauldron out and began filling it with the different vials of ingredients they would need for the potion. Meanwhile, Pansy had pulled Draco over to the table, and was practically begging him to get on top of her right there on the counter. 'That little slut.' Hermione thought to her self, for her shirt barely covered her breasts. Hermione began to add the ingredients to the cauldron.
"Oh Drakie! Isn't it horrible, both of us stuck with Gryffindors!" She squeaked in her pug like voice, her fingers entwined in Draco's blond hair. "I wish I was paired with you," She said, bringing her face down next to Draco's ear. "Then we could have fun." Her tongue flickered out, licking Draco's ear. Hermione watched in disgust. Draco was sitting there as if nothing had happened.
"Parkinson! Malfoy! What is going on here?" Snape's voice boomed from the head of the classroom.
"Nothing sir! She wouldn't let me do any of the work!" Pansy said, pointing to Hermione. Hermione jumped. A look of surprise spread across her face. 'Didn't let her help? Covered for her butt, that's what I did!' She thought angrily. "But Sir-"
"No buts Ms. Granger, detention tonight and 10 points from Gryffindor. And just what were you doing Mr. Malfoy?"
"Just helping Ms. Parkinson Sir." He said, smirking to Hermione.
"Alright then, go back to your seat and finish your work. I'm sure Mr. Weasley needs your help."
Hermione rolled her eyes, the favoritism in this class was more than blatant. 'Both Slytherins got off free and I get a detention.' She continued her work in silence. Pansy sat there next to her, filing her nails.
Later that evening, Hermione walked down to the dungeons to meet Snape for her detention. She slowly turned the knob on the wooden door and began to walk inside when she heard voices. Hermione leaned her head in to listen.
"But Professor! I didn't do anything wrong! That McGoganall just doesn't like the Slytherins! She doesn't like me, I know it!" Hermione heard someone whine from inside.
"Mr. Malfoy," Hermione laughed, she'd never heard Malfoy whine like that. "If it were up to me, I'd let you go. But its completely out of my hands." Hermione realized what this meant-she'd be spending detention with Malfoy. For once she wished Snape would let him off easy. There was no way they'd be able to spend that much time together without hexing each other.
She took a deep breath and walked inside.
"Ah, Ms. Granger. How nice of you to join us. You're late."
"I'm sorry Professor-"
"Enough! This evening, you, along with Mr. Malfoy, will restock every ingredient in my supply cabinet and clean out all the school's cauldrons. After that, come report to me in my office and I will give you further instructions." With that, Snape gathered his things and stormed out of the classroom.
Hermione set her things down on the nearest table. She looked over to where Draco was sitting. He was giving her the most degrading scowl she had ever been privy too.
"Um.Well." She stammered. "I'm going to restock the cabinets." She briskly turned and made her way toward the cabinets.
"Here's the deal, you filth. You do all the work and I sit her and watch. Got it." He placed his hands behind his head and propped his feet up on the table.
Hermione scoffed at his insolence. "No, I don't think so. I do my half and you do yours."
"A Malfoy never does work when he's got a Mudblood to do it for him." He remained in his place and closed his eyes.
"You are such an ass Malfoy!" Hermione dropped her things and turned to face him, her hands clenched into little fists.
"And you are dirty. He brushed invisible lint off his shoulders. "What's your point?"
"You slimy little ferret! You Git! Get off your lazy ass and get over here and help me! And you will stop calling me filth!" Hermione yelled at the top of her lungs.
Draco got out of his chair and walked over to Hermione. He towered over her. Looking down at her, he took his index finger and slid it down her cheek. "Why, it's what you are, and what you always will be." He slowly whispered, causing Hermione to shiver. Goosebumps formed on her arms and legs.
"I'm not a mudblood!" She spoke through clenched teeth.
"Oh, you're not, are you? Excuse me, I meant Muggle Born, " He said mockingly, rubbing Hermione's arm with this tips of his fingers. "Give it up Granger." He walked away from her and began to pick up the vials Hermione had dropped earlier.
"I'm not a fricking Mudblood!!!" Hermione screamed, fighting off the tears that threatened to flow down her face. She slinked down to the floor, giving into her emotions. She pulled her knees into her chest and hung her head down.
"Christ!" Draco mumbled to himself. It was the second time that year he had made Hermione cry. "What's your problem." He said, trying not to sound annoyed.
"What does it matter to you?" Hermione spat through her tears.
"Look Granger, once again, I didn't mean to make you cry. I was just trying to piss you off." He continued to collect the empty bottles out of the supply cabinet.
"Well you did a wonderful job." She said sarcastically, wiping her eyes with the sleeves of her robe.
There was a long pause between the two. "Well, are you going to get up here and help me or what?" Draco asked, offering a hand to Hermione. She hesitatingly took it. Draco pulled her to her feet.
The two worked in silence until they had completed everything Snape left them to do.
They gathered their things and began to head to Snape's office. Hermione had nearly reached the door when a letter fell out of the front part of her bag. She bent down to pick it up, looking at the seal. She turned around to face Draco, who wasn't too far behind her.
"Can I ask you something?" She asked, still clutching the letter in her hands.
"Depends" Draco answered, eyeing her carefully. Hermione reached out and pushed him lightly back into the classroom, closing the door behind her. She led Draco to a table and sat down.
"Are you a-a, I mean, have you-"
"Spit it out. I haven't got all day you know." He replied, crossing his arms across his chest.
"Give me a second alright. There's something I need to ask you, but I haven't told anyone else about it yet."
"Then why are you telling me?" Draco asked obviously annoyed. "Why don't you go talk to Potty or the Weasel?" He began to get up when Hermione placed a hand on his forearm to stop him. She looked into his eyes, pleading with him.
"Please. Sit back down." Her eyes began to water again. "I don't know why, but I think you're the only one who will understand." She tried to blink back her tears. For a split second she though she saw his icy eyes soften, but with one blink they went back to their usual gray ice again.
"Oh, alright." He sat back down in his chair.
Hermione took a deep breath, unsure if she was doing the right thing. She couldn't believe she was about to tell her worst enemy her deepest. darkest secrete. "Are you, um, are you a death eater?"
"What does this have to do with, woman?" He smirked.
"Just answer, please." Hermione whispered in a feeble attempt to hold back her tears.
"I will be, soon." He replied, proudly.
"Then you should know my father." She squeaked, for she was barely able to speak.
"Your father? I don't think so, mudbloods aren't allowed."
"I already told you, I'm not a mudblood." She paused and looked at Draco. He was actually listening with a look of interest on his face. Hermione took that as a sign to go on.
"I was adopted, I've always known that. But this summer, I found a birth certificate from the wizarding world in my attic." She couldn't stop it any longer, the tears came flooding down.
" And what does this have to do with me?" He asked, knowing full well what this had to do with him, for he had overheard many conversations between his father and the other Death Eaters that had to do with this very thing.
"My father, I mean my birth father, he's." She took a deep breath before continuing. "He's Voldemort." She screamed, sobbing even louder.
Draco stood up, a look of shock on his face. He never dreamed that Voldemort's only child was Gryffindor Mudblood Hermione Granger. "Does anyone know?"
Hermione shook her head 'no'. "Just you, and my parents. But they don't understand what it means." She took a few more deep breaths trying to stop her tears.
"Well isn't this just great. You're worst enemy, is now your best friend. And your best friend, your worst enemy. I can't wait to see the look on Potter's face when he finds out his girlfriend's secrete." He said to himself.
"He's not my boyfriend, and I'm not telling him, not yet anyway." She said, standing up. Draco took a few steps toward her. Her grabbed her arms forcefully, pulling her up to him. "Don't tell anyone, do you understand? Not a soul." He glared down at her before dropping her to the floor.
Hermione rubbed her arm where Draco's fingers were once clenched. Red marks were forming in the shape of his long, slender fingers. "Ok." She said.
"Now go clean your face, we've got to go meet Snape, and I don't want anyone to get any wrong ideas." He began to walk out of the room. Hermione did what was told of her as she followed Draco out of the classroom.
