When Hermione screams, most of it comes from the AFI song "but home is no
where" and "this time is imperfect" I thought it fit with what she was
thinking. Sorry, I know that its little old, but it works. And Hermione
goes a little crazy, so just a warning.
I disassociate
Hermione made her way into Cornelius Fudge's office.
"You wanted to see me?" she stepped in.
"Hermione you may want to sit down for this" he said nodding his head to a chair.
She frowned and sat down in the chair he offered. He was sweating and a loss for words, she started to panic.
He cleared his throat "Hermione, Voldemort and his followers have committed an insane crime, we have caught the culprits" he paused taking a drink of his water.
"What did they do?" she sat up.
"They wiped out an entire block of muggles, killing all of them" he paused waiting for her reaction.
"Oh my god" she covered her mouth.
"They killed an entire block on Hepsperg alley, in Surrey"
"No" she whispered.
"Your parents were found and identified, but did not make it"
"No" she was crying now.
"The murders were Pansy Parkinson, Blaise Zambini, and Vincent Crabbe"
Her breath became rigid and she looked around looking for an answer.
"We did catch them, they are being held in the cell block down stairs until 5:30 tonight, they will be sent to Azkaban"
"They are here?" she asked.
He nodded "Y...Yes"
She nodded and stood storming out of the room.
"Hermione wait, no" he ran after her, she began to break out into a run. Everyone looked over watching.
"What the hell?" Parvati said.
Hermione ran down the stairs and grabbed the keys to the cell blocks.
"Hermione, stop her" Fudge said but it meant nothing to her, she kept running. She opened the blocks and saw Pansy huddled in a corner, Blaise sleeping, and Vincent picking at his skin.
She ran over to Pansy and picked her up by her robes and threw her against a wall. She ran over to her and immediately starting punching the shit out of her. Then two pairs of hands grabbed her from behind. She kept screaming and kicking.
"I WILL KILL YOU, YOU STUPID BITCH, DON'T THINK THIS IS THE FUCKING END, I WILL LIVE TO SEE YOU DIE!" she screamed.
Pansy sat up grabbing her face, as Blaise and Crabbe ran to her. The two tall men were trying to pull her out but she was kicking and screaming. Her whole world had come down, she didn't care if you messed with her, and she would get over it. But if it were her parents, you were a dead man.
"You are fucked up" Pansy snapped while trying to wipe blood off of her face.
"YOU ARE A STUPID PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR A WIZARD, DID YOU SEE WHAT I FUCKING DID TO YOUR FACE, WELL THAT'S HOW MUGGLES DEAL WITH THINGS, BELIVE ME WHEN I SAY THIS ISNT THE END!" she was screaming at the top of her lungs, as they pulled her out of the cell.
The men pushed her up against the wall, Fudge walked up red faced and Hermione thought any moment steam would come out of his ears.
"What do you think you are doing?" he snapped "you are a professional wizard you do NOT go and hurt anyone at free will"
Hermione shook her head at him "Do you not understand they KILLED my parents, this is all my fucking fault" she said as tears flowed freely down her face.
"It isn't your fault Miss Granger, go home and rest, you can come back in two days" he wiped his forehead, it was covered in sweat. The men let her go and she slid down the wall, sobbing. Fudge had an impulse to comfort her but decided to not and walked away.
She started screaming and crying, it wasn't fair. She didn't like the way she felt, how could someone go out and kill innocent people? Anger began to rise, she felt like going back into the cell block and killing Pansy, but she couldn't seem to move, she just sat there rocking back and forth.
People poked their heads over their shoulders and would glance at her, then heard a familiar voice.
"Get out of my way, o my god Hermione" it was Parvati she ran over to her grabbing her.
"I heard all about it, I am so sorry" she rubbed Hermione's back and continued to calm her down.
Hermione didn't speak they continued to rock back and forth for at least an hour. Hermione finally sat up and looked at Parvati through red puffy eyes.
"Go get some rest, you need it," Hermione nodded and stood up shakingly. She transfixed her eyes on the red carpet in front of her. People were staring at her, she didn't care, and nothing mattered any more.
She didn't bother to grab her things from her office she trudged down to her car. She stepped inside her car and began to cry. She sat their for at least another hour then finally started the car up and drove to the house.
When she pulled up she noticed Harry's car gone. She turned off the ignition and stepped out. She again transfixed on the ground in front of her. When she opened the door she looked up and saw Ron on top of Mina.
He seemed to not notice and kept pumping. She grabbed the nearest object that was closest (which was his mothers hand made vase) and hucked it at him. He turned and his eyes grew wide and jaw fell.
She stood there with tears coming down the already tear stained face. She shook her head and walked up the stairs.
"Hermione, wait I need to talk to you" he tried to follow her up but didn't succeed she slammed the door in his face.
Draco looked up he was reading one of her books. He quickly set it down and walked towards her, but she held up a hand and he stopped. Ron banged on the door over and over screaming.
"Hermione please let me in, I need to explain"
Draco stared at her expectantly, she stared at the floor. It was silent for what Draco thought to be an eternity.
"Give me something" she said as he frowned.
"What?"
"Give me something" she didn't look up at him.
"What do you want?"
She placed her hands over her ears and screamed "GIVE ME SOMETHING REAL" He stared wide eyed at her. She bent down rocking back and forth, shaking and still covering her ears.
"SEEMS NO ONE WILL APEAR HERE AND MAKE ME REAL" Draco just stood staring he didn't know how to react. Ron and Mina on the other side of the door with there ears against the door frowned.
"I LAY STREWN ACROSS THE FLOOR, CAN'T SOLVE THIS PUZZLE, EVERDAY ANOTHER SMALL PIECE CAN'T BE FOUND, PIECED UP IN SORROW, THE PIECES ARE LOST, THESE PIECES DON'T FIT, PEICED TOGETHER INCOMPLETE AND EMPTY"
Draco gulped watching this girl break down. She started to just scream out now, over and over again. Ron and Mina began to breathe heavily.
"This is all your fault" he whispered harshly to Mina.
"My fault" she said loudly.
"If you hadn't suggested we fuck when people are here we wouldn't be in this mess, would we?" he snapped.
"Fuck you" she turned and walked down the stairs.
Ron sneered and pressed his ear up against the door again. Harry walked in right as Mina reached the bottom step. He was laughing and had an arm around Ginny who was softly punching him in the stomach.
"It's over" Mina said as Harry frowned and let go of Ginny.
"What, we weren't doing anything, just playing"
Mina shook her head "I know YOU didn't, but I did, I have been fucking Ron, I am truly sorry" she began to cry and ran back up the stairs.
She hugged Ron, as he looked down at Harry. He watched the whole thing and then led her into his room. Harry couldn't believe his best friend did this to him. He ran up the stairs determined to break down that door.
Ginny followed slightly excited at what was going on, but then had to remember, it was Mina who made him happy.
He began to hit the door as hard as he could.
"LET ME THE FUCK IN" he screamed.
"HARRY GO AWAY" Mina screamed back.
Harry took out his door and muttered a small spell which caused the door to break down. He walked in and punched Ron as hard as he could. He then twisted his collar and began punching him repeatedly. Ron tried to push him off but couldn't. Ginny standing in the corner her hand over her mouth, and then Mina who was screaming and trying to pull Harry off of Ron.
Hermione stopped shaking and looked at the door. Draco followed her pursuit and watched the door silently. He then realized what was going on and ran to the door and opened it then ran to Harry's room. Hermione followed him, he pulled Harry off of Ron, and Ron spat out blood, he was really cut up.
Hermione glared down at Ron, as did Draco, Harry, and Ginny. Mina sat next to Ron uncomfortably.
"How could you, both of you?" Harry snapped.
They sat silently, Hermione grew a wave of emotions, she was sure she would pass out. But she didn't, she stood ground, with her knees locked. She was standing slightly behind Draco, breathing in his shoulder.
He could feel her breath and knew she was going weak. He slightly turned and looked at her. She weakly looked up at him he knew something else was up. He nodded towards the door and she nodded back in response.
"Hmm, what was that I didn't hear an answer" Harry barked.
Ron watched Draco and Hermione's actions. Her hand slid down his arms and she intertwined there fingers. Draco smiled slightly then started to walk towards the door. Ron's blood began to boil.
"Now wait, what is this?" he snapped at Hermione and Draco.
She turned and looked at Ron "I don't know anymore" she said hoarsely "I mean you out of all people, I admit me and Draco could have done anything we wanted, no one ever bothered us, but I never thought about it twice, I respected you, I never would have done that to you, and it just goes to show how much people really care"
"So what now you're going to fuck HIM?" he said.
Hermione frowned "how could think that?"
He nodded to their hands "and you are leaving"
"I really can't believe you Ron, you made my day so much worse" she said as her lip began to quiver.
"How" he said snootily.
"My parents died, they've been killed" she almost whispered. Draco was shocked, how didn't he see this coming.
Ron's mouth fell open as well as everyone else's.
"Oh Hermione" Ginny said while walking towards her. Hermione stood back and let go of Draco's arm.
"Everyone leave me alone" she turned on her heal and walked to her room, slamming the door.
Draco stood in Harry's doorway staring at nothing. Then it hit him, he let all of it happen, he knew they were going to kill her parents. He hated to admit that he had grown fond of Hermione, but he knew he should have stopped it.
Harry then pushed Draco out of the way and ran down the stairs, followed by another door slamming. Draco knew he was really weak now and that would mean his father could probably kill him off right now. But he couldn't move, Ginny was the next to push him out of the way, she too ran down the stairs, probably following Harry.
Ron stared at Draco's back, he wondered what he was thinking, if it had anything to do with Hermione. He wondered what he could do to get Hermione back he never thought it would be this hard to leave her. Draco then began to walk and sat down and the top of the stairs, staring down it, thinking of how much better they all would be if he never came, then thought 'it would basically be the same, I would have helped them kill her parents' he shuddered and then turned and looked at Hermione's door. He saw the light eliminating out of it, and her shadow pacing back and forth.
He looked away from the door and leaned against the railing. What was he going to tell his father?
.
Meanwhile back at the manor...
"Do you think Draco will complete the mission?" Lucius asked Voldemort while cleaning something.
"If he doesn't he is dead, no matter where he hides, even if he does complete the mission, I will kill him" he smirked as Lucius looked up at him.
"Your. You're going to kill my son no matter what?" he hesitated.
Voldemort nodded, "the mudblood has affected him, I can feel it, when she figures out that her parents are dead she will be vulnerable and Draco will come to her side"
Lucius nodded catching on.
"Tonight we will give her a punishment"
Lucius frowned "how?"
"There is a certain curse, which when I give the whip a snap at this wall marked with her name, the cuts will appear on her skin"
"I don't understand"
Voldemort smirked "I will show you" he grabbed his whip and placed a lock of Hermione's hair on the floor in front of the marked wall. He then began to chant, Lucius watched in amusement. Then Voldemort hissed and started whipping the wall.
Hermione screamed and sat up in her bed. Draco quickly stood and walked in her room. She was crawling on the ground and crying. He kneeled at her side as she gripped his leg. She then began to pick at her back.
Draco frowned and then looked at her back, where very noticeably blood started to form. He placed his hands on the neck of her shirt and ripped it open. There were six cuts, two more formed in front of his eyes. She wailed again, he looked up at the door where Ron and Mina stood they walked over and looked at her back. They saw one more cut appear out of no where.
"What is going on?" Ron snapped.
"Voldemort" Draco said while looking around for a towel making Ron shudder at that name.
"Mina would you kindly go and fetch me a towel in that bathroom, damp it in warm water" she nodded and walked in the bathroom.
"It looks as though she is being whipped" Ron said.
"It's a darker curse although I don't know what" he said hoisting Hermione up.
She cried out once more as two more appeared, then fell limp. Draco carried her over to the bed and layed her on her stomach. He traced a finger softly over her bleeding cuts, he knew it was Voldemort. Mina walked in with a bowl of warm water, a washcloth in her hand and one soaking in the bowl.
He snatched it from her and then rung out the water in the washcloth. He slowly began to clean it, she winced.
"Shhh, its ok" he said continuing to wipe off the blood.
The front door opened and they heard two hushed voices, Ron looked at Mina and nodded, they walked back into Harry's room. Draco didn't notice them leave, Hermione reached her hand up and grabbed the top of his pants, gripping them.
Ginny immerged in the room, "where..," she looked down at Hermione.
"What happened?" she shrieked running over to her friend.
"Voldemort" Ginny winced at his name and looked down at Hermione's back.
Harry then showed his face in the room, he noticed Draco bending over Hermione wiping her bloody back and then Ginny gaping at her.
He frowned and walked forward he saw her back and almost fainted. Ginny helped him up for support. He knew who did this, he didn't need to ask. He then looked up at Draco who was concentrating hard.
He looked down at Ginny who was crying silently. He hugged her slightly not letting go, he then put an arm on Draco's shoulder.
"Thank you" Draco looked taken back and Harry smiled.
"You really care for her don't you" he said as if Hermione was incapable of hearing. Hermione closed her eyes as she heard him say "I do"
"How can we stop this?"
"We can't" Draco said grumpily.
"Why can't we?"
"Because Voldemort is hundreds of miles away, and even if we knew exactly where he was, we couldn't stop it" he said although he knew exactly where he was.
"We have to" Harry said.
Draco looked up at Harry and nodded "I will kill that son of a bitch once and for all" Harry snapped making Draco truly smile.
"I will back you up bitch" he teased causing Harry to laugh. Ginny elbowed him making him stop and look at Hermione. He bent down and caressed the side of her head.
"Are you ok?" she nodded and he smiled kissing her forehead "can I leave you here with Mr. Malfoy?"
She looked Harry in the eye and smiled "of course you can"
He smiled kissing her again then grabbing Ginny's arm and pulling her out.
Ginny looked up at him surprisingly "what was that for?" she snapped but he rested his mouth on hers. Her eyes widened but she didn't pull away. She slightly opened her mouth and he plunged his tongue in. They played with each others tongues until she back off leaving him frowning.
"What's wrong, sorry I shouldn't have kissed you" he put his hands in his pockets and looked around.
"I am just you last resort aren't I?" she said shakingly.
"No of course not, I really care for you, I knew that day in the car when we were driving, I looked at you and saw you for the first time" she frowned; they drive together in the car everyday, but shrugged he like her?
"I told Sirius, I didn't know what to do, I have been avoiding Mina lately because I don't want you to hate me"
"Why would I hate you?"
"I don't know" he rubbed the back of his neck.
"Harry I have waited since I was ten to here you say you liked me, and now that I am 18, I don't know if I like you in return" Harry's face dropped.
"I am sorry Harry, but I can't wait for you forever, and when you finally notice me I am dating someone else"
"You're dating someone else?"
"Yes, I have been for a week now"
"Well it's not that important, you're not attached, and you can be with me"
"Harry, I won't do that"
He nodded and started to walk down the stairs.
"Harry" she called and he turned "where are you going?"
"Downstairs, I thought you" she started laughing.
"I was kidding"
"You were, then your not dating anyone" he ran up and hugged her "I thought I were going to die"
"Now you know how it feels" she looked down.
"Hey" he lifted her chin with his hand "I like you and that is all that matters" she smiled and kissed him.
He pushed her into her room, then down on the bed. She smiled inwardly this is what she always wanted. She pushed up into him, feeling his erection grow. He started to grind into her. They then began ripping each others clothes off. Soon they were naked, skin to skin. She loved this feeling, and he was rather larger than she had expected.
He slowly spread her legs open feeling the burning desire to be inside her. He slowly pushed himself inside causing her to grunt. She didn't mind the pain, she helped him gripping onto his body and pushing up into him.
He was surprised she was reacting this way. When fully inside her he looked down and brushed some hair out of her face. She smiled weakly and pushed up into him.
"You don't know how long I've waited for this" she whispered.
"I know eight years" he said
She shook her head no "it's been longer than that, in my mind"
He kissed her lightly then began the grinding session. Her mouth hung open as he pumped harder in and out. She couldn't believe it felt this good. She always dreamed of it to something sensual but nothing compared to this.
They both screamed together one last time as he fell on top of her. Panting hard, she smiled inwardly and then looked down at him. He had a smile plastered on his face as well.
She closed her eyes and fell asleep with him still inside her.
Draco finished cleaning the cuts and they had stopped bleeding. He was now tracing fingers delicately over them. Why would he want to hurt her, if it was Harry he was after? He must assume something, or know something.
Hermione still had her hand clutched at the top of Draco's pants. 'So now that I am not with Ron I can be with Draco?' She looked up at him he didn't catch her gaze but kept looking over her cuts.
She had completely forgotten that her parents had died. She kept going over the fact that she could be Draco's, and that made her have butterflies. She couldn't feel her aching back. Her eyes transfixed on his deep silver ones, scanning over her back.
"I think you'll be ok for now" he said breaking the silence.
She looked down and then moved her hands to unbuckle his belt. His face dropped at her actions but didn't stop her.
Soon his pants fell to the floor.....
I disassociate
Hermione made her way into Cornelius Fudge's office.
"You wanted to see me?" she stepped in.
"Hermione you may want to sit down for this" he said nodding his head to a chair.

"Hermione wait, no" he ran after her, she began to break out into a run. Everyone looked over watching.

Hermione ran down the stairs and grabbed the keys to the cell blocks.
"Hermione, stop her" Fudge said but it meant nothing to her, she kept running. She opened the blocks and saw Pansy huddled in a corner, Blaise sleeping, and Vincent picking at his skin.
She ran over to Pansy and picked her up by her robes and threw her against a wall. She ran over to her and immediately starting punching the shit out of her. Then two pairs of hands grabbed her from behind. She kept screaming and kicking.

She placed her hands over her ears and screamed "GIVE ME SOMETHING REAL" He stared wide eyed at her. She bent down rocking back and forth, shaking and still covering her ears.
"SEEMS NO ONE WILL APEAR HERE AND MAKE ME REAL" Draco just stood staring he didn't know how to react. Ron and Mina on the other side of the door with there ears against the door frowned.
"I LAY STREWN ACROSS THE FLOOR, CAN'T SOLVE THIS PUZZLE, EVERDAY ANOTHER SMALL PIECE CAN'T BE FOUND, PIECED UP IN SORROW, THE PIECES ARE LOST, THESE PIECES DON'T FIT, PEICED TOGETHER INCOMPLETE AND EMPTY"
Draco gulped watching this girl break down. She started to just scream out now, over and over again. Ron and Mina began to breathe heavily.
"This is all your fault" he whispered harshly to Mina.

"Fuck you" she turned and walked down the stairs.
Ron sneered and pressed his ear up against the door again. Harry walked in right as Mina reached the bottom step. He was laughing and had an arm around Ginny who was softly punching him in the stomach.
"It's over" Mina said as Harry frowned and let go of Ginny.

Ginny followed slightly excited at what was going on, but then had to remember, it was Mina who made him happy.
He began to hit the door as hard as he could.
"LET ME THE FUCK IN" he screamed.
"HARRY GO AWAY" Mina screamed back.
Harry took out his door and muttered a small spell which caused the door to break down. He walked in and punched Ron as hard as he could. He then twisted his collar and began punching him repeatedly. Ron tried to push him off but couldn't. Ginny standing in the corner her hand over her mouth, and then Mina who was screaming and trying to pull Harry off of Ron.
Hermione stopped shaking and looked at the door. Draco followed her pursuit and watched the door silently. He then realized what was going on and ran to the door and opened it then ran to Harry's room. Hermione followed him, he pulled Harry off of Ron, and Ron spat out blood, he was really cut up.
Hermione glared down at Ron, as did Draco, Harry, and Ginny. Mina sat next to Ron uncomfortably.

Hermione frowned "how could think that?"
He nodded to their hands "and you are leaving"
"I really can't believe you Ron, you made my day so much worse" she said as her lip began to quiver.
"How" he said snootily.

"It's a darker curse although I don't know what" he said hoisting Hermione up.
She cried out once more as two more appeared, then fell limp. Draco carried her over to the bed and layed her on her stomach. He traced a finger softly over her bleeding cuts, he knew it was Voldemort. Mina walked in with a bowl of warm water, a washcloth in her hand and one soaking in the bowl.
He snatched it from her and then rung out the water in the washcloth. He slowly began to clean it, she winced.
"Shhh, its ok" he said continuing to wipe off the blood.
The front door opened and they heard two hushed voices, Ron looked at Mina and nodded, they walked back into Harry's room. Draco didn't notice them leave, Hermione reached her hand up and grabbed the top of his pants, gripping them.
Ginny immerged in the room, "where..," she looked down at Hermione.
"What happened?" she shrieked running over to her friend.
"Voldemort" Ginny winced at his name and looked down at Hermione's back.
Harry then showed his face in the room, he noticed Draco bending over Hermione wiping her bloody back and then Ginny gaping at her.
He frowned and walked forward he saw her back and almost fainted. Ginny helped him up for support. He knew who did this, he didn't need to ask. He then looked up at Draco who was concentrating hard.
He looked down at Ginny who was crying silently. He hugged her slightly not letting go, he then put an arm on Draco's shoulder.
"Thank you" Draco looked taken back and Harry smiled.
"You really care for her don't you" he said as if Hermione was incapable of hearing. Hermione closed her eyes as she heard him say "I do"
"How can we stop this?"
"We can't" Draco said grumpily.
"Why can't we?"
"Because Voldemort is hundreds of miles away, and even if we knew exactly where he was, we couldn't stop it" he said although he knew exactly where he was.
"We have to" Harry said.
Draco looked up at Harry and nodded "I will kill that son of a bitch once and for all" Harry snapped making Draco truly smile.
"I will back you up bitch" he teased causing Harry to laugh. Ginny elbowed him making him stop and look at Hermione. He bent down and caressed the side of her head.
"Are you ok?" she nodded and he smiled kissing her forehead "can I leave you here with Mr. Malfoy?"
She looked Harry in the eye and smiled "of course you can"
He smiled kissing her again then grabbing Ginny's arm and pulling her out.
Ginny looked up at him surprisingly "what was that for?" she snapped but he rested his mouth on hers. Her eyes widened but she didn't pull away. She slightly opened her mouth and he plunged his tongue in. They played with each others tongues until she back off leaving him frowning.
"What's wrong, sorry I shouldn't have kissed you" he put his hands in his pockets and looked around.
"I am just you last resort aren't I?" she said shakingly.
"No of course not, I really care for you, I knew that day in the car when we were driving, I looked at you and saw you for the first time" she frowned; they drive together in the car everyday, but shrugged he like her?
"I told Sirius, I didn't know what to do, I have been avoiding Mina lately because I don't want you to hate me"
"Why would I hate you?"
"I don't know" he rubbed the back of his neck.
"Harry I have waited since I was ten to here you say you liked me, and now that I am 18, I don't know if I like you in return" Harry's face dropped.
"I am sorry Harry, but I can't wait for you forever, and when you finally notice me I am dating someone else"
"You're dating someone else?"
"Yes, I have been for a week now"
"Well it's not that important, you're not attached, and you can be with me"
"Harry, I won't do that"
He nodded and started to walk down the stairs.
"Harry" she called and he turned "where are you going?"
"Downstairs, I thought you" she started laughing.
"I was kidding"
"You were, then your not dating anyone" he ran up and hugged her "I thought I were going to die"
"Now you know how it feels" she looked down.
"Hey" he lifted her chin with his hand "I like you and that is all that matters" she smiled and kissed him.
He pushed her into her room, then down on the bed. She smiled inwardly this is what she always wanted. She pushed up into him, feeling his erection grow. He started to grind into her. They then began ripping each others clothes off. Soon they were naked, skin to skin. She loved this feeling, and he was rather larger than she had expected.
He slowly spread her legs open feeling the burning desire to be inside her. He slowly pushed himself inside causing her to grunt. She didn't mind the pain, she helped him gripping onto his body and pushing up into him.
He was surprised she was reacting this way. When fully inside her he looked down and brushed some hair out of her face. She smiled weakly and pushed up into him.
"You don't know how long I've waited for this" she whispered.
"I know eight years" he said
She shook her head no "it's been longer than that, in my mind"
He kissed her lightly then began the grinding session. Her mouth hung open as he pumped harder in and out. She couldn't believe it felt this good. She always dreamed of it to something sensual but nothing compared to this.
They both screamed together one last time as he fell on top of her. Panting hard, she smiled inwardly and then looked down at him. He had a smile plastered on his face as well.
She closed her eyes and fell asleep with him still inside her.
Draco finished cleaning the cuts and they had stopped bleeding. He was now tracing fingers delicately over them. Why would he want to hurt her, if it was Harry he was after? He must assume something, or know something.
Hermione still had her hand clutched at the top of Draco's pants. 'So now that I am not with Ron I can be with Draco?' She looked up at him he didn't catch her gaze but kept looking over her cuts.
She had completely forgotten that her parents had died. She kept going over the fact that she could be Draco's, and that made her have butterflies. She couldn't feel her aching back. Her eyes transfixed on his deep silver ones, scanning over her back.
"I think you'll be ok for now" he said breaking the silence.
She looked down and then moved her hands to unbuckle his belt. His face dropped at her actions but didn't stop her.
Soon his pants fell to the floor.....
