A/N: I'll talk at the end
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
It was 4:47 in the morning. Draco was pacing outside of Hermione's room. He needed to talk to her right away. He hadn't slept the whole night (that was probably the only reason he could possibly be up at this time of day). Finally he gained the courage to walk into the room. He nudged open the door and peeked in. She was still sleeping soundly on her bed. He walked in and shut the door quietly. He quickly put a silencing charm on the room and locked the door. He expected scream and being pushed out of the room one way or another. He tiptoed over to her bed. As he approached her he noticed tear stains on her gold pillow. His heart wrenched thinking about the pain he inflicted on her. He sat next to her on her bed. She stirred and slowly opened her eyelids. She looked up and saw Draco's slightly smiling face. Suddenly she came to her senses.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN HERE! GET OUT OF MY ROOM THIS INSTANT YOU, YOU, YOU PAIN IN THE ARSE!" Hermione screamed in rage in the process of getting out of bed and pushing Draco towards her door.
"Tell me you put a silencing charm on this room," she said slightly more composed.
"Yes, I expected screaming,"
"Well isn't that amazing. Ferret boy over here might actually have part of a brain," Hermione said glaring at him.
"Hermione, can I please explain this to you?" Draco said with pleading eyes. He had never pleaded before. His father told him he would see it as a sign of weakness and they would be killed.
"Explain! Explain what? I think I fully understand how obnoxious, cruel and shallow you are already so what else would you need to explain? How you make that sneer appear on your face and then look like this? You should go to acting school Malfoy, you'd probably do well,"
"What I did last night wasn't really me,"
"Oh really. Then I suppose pigs are all flying and Professor Binns is actually exciting," Hermione said sarcastically as she unlocked the door and shoved him out of her room slamming the door on his face.
"Hermione, I did it for you," Draco said getting up from the floor.
Hermione opened the door smiling at him. "You did it for me?" she said with forgiveness in her voice.
"Yea, I did," Draco said smiling at her. She gestured for him to come in and she closed the door. After closing the door she turned to him with absolute hate on her face.
"MAY I ASK HOW YOU CAN CONSIDER WHAT YOU DID WAS FOR MY BENEFIT?" Hermione said pushing him against a wall.
"The Slytherins don't know about my father being killed by Voldemort. They think it was a wizarding accident. They have no clue we were spies. Voldemort doesn't want them to know because he would be a mockery. Then he would kill me. If they knew they would also kill me for obvious reasons. Also if they saw us together willingly they would know something was weird. It would also be a possibility they would kill you to. Now do you understand these fatal consequences?" Draco said out of breath.
Hermione stepped back and all she could say was, "What?"
"If they knew we even got a long in any way then we would both be dead," Draco said gravely.
Hermione quietly showed him to the door. "I understand why you did what you did but I can't forgive you. You really need to work out your priorities," Hermione said opening the door trying to sound as nice as possible.
"I don't blame you," Draco said walking out of her room staring at his feet, the large wooden door closing behind him.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Draco decided to go for a walk, he needed to get his mind off of everything. He was on the sixth or seventh floor when he heard footsteps behind him. He turned around but no one was there. He started walking and he heard the footsteps again. He turned around and then out of thin air saw Potter and Weasley come out of a cloak. The Gryffindors were sneering at his shocked face.
"What are you doing here?" Draco said glaring at them.
"With some help from the Marauder's map we found you. Now we will pay you back for what you did to Hermione," Harry said as they slowly approached him with their wands out stretched. Draco was desperately trying to grab his wand from inside his robes but he was also trying to dodge the spells Harry and Ron were casting.
"Furnunculus!" Ron said pointing at Malfoy's leg. The pain was excruciating as his skin began to boil.
"Tarantallegra!" Harry yelled having Malfoy stand up and dance. He was on the verge of screaming the pain was so bad. He was hopping on his leg with boiling skin.
"Wingardium Leviosa!" Ron said making Malfoy float in the air and then he threw him against a stone wall.
The boys repeated Wingardium Leviosa about five more times. Then Malfoy could not take it anymore, he screamed. Harry and Ron ran away leaving a bleeding, unconscious Draco lying in the hallway.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Hermione heard a knock on her door. "Miss Granger, may you please come here," Professor McGonagall's voice said.
Hermione opened the door, "Yes Professor,"
"Mr. Malfoy is in the hospital wing, he would like to see you,"
"Oh, I suppose I could come," Hermione said walking out of her room towards the hospital wing with Professor McGonagall.
"Why is he in the hospital wing?"
"I believe he had a run in with someone who wanted him hurt. He doesn't know who at the moment, things are a bit hazy for him right now,"
Hermione stomach turned. She thought about what he told her earlier that day. Soon they got to the hospital wing and Hermione slowly walked to his bed. She looked at his limp body. He had a cut along the side of his face, bruises on his arms and burns on his leg with scattered bubbles of skin. He slowly opened his eyes to look at her.
"Hermione," he whispered.
"Hello," she said softly. "Why did you want me here?"
"You want friends by you when you are hurt, and you are the closest thing I have to a friend," he said looking into her honey eyes, which were now glazed with tears.
Suddenly he winced in pain. He began to gasp for air. Hermione freaked out.
"Oh my God! Madame Pomfrey! Come here quick!" she screamed as the nurse came scampering over to Draco's bed. She quickly examined him and then shot up.
"Oh my. You must leave Miss Granger," she said pointing to the door.
"What? Will he be okay?" Hermione said looking at the nurse frantically.
"We shall see, we shall see," she said pulling the white curtain around Draco's bed.
As Hermione hesitantly walked out the door she saw Professor Dumbledore, McGonagall and Snape walk in.
"Will he be alright?" Hermione asked Dumbledore.
"I cannot tell you at this time Miss Granger. Please do not worry," the old man said closing the door gently behind him.
As Hermione walked off she mumbled to herself, "Don't die Draco, don't die."
