The Sweetest Sin

 As Hermione and her mother were walking out of Spider Bites one way, Draco Malfoy was walking in the other way, he sat on one of the leather couches and opened a piercing book, he was always fascinated by this form of pain and uniqueness, he turned the page and came upon a tongue piercing, which he decided looked incredible fun, and it looked awesome on the girl with it, so he decided to get it for shits, but made a mental note to not let his father see it or he might rip it out and throw him in the dungeons for weeks on end with out food.

 He secretly transfigured some of his money to muggle money so he could pay for it, then picked out the ring that the girl had in, a simple silver one, and since he had just turned 18, he could sign the papers and all that jazz without any hassle, he sat on the edge of the beds and washed out his mouth and stuck his tongue out and looked at the ceiling, he was never very fond of needles, and winced a little when the needle went through, the man screwed on the bottom ball and gave him mouth wash for future washings and bid him a good day.

 As he walked out of the parlor, all he could do was play with his new toy, he clicked it against his teeth as he looked in some of the muggle stores, one in particular caught his attention, it was a computer and electronics store, he had seen one of these so called lap tops before, but couldn't remember where, then when he saw a lady in the window with brown bushy hair, he remembered, the mudblood had one of them for writing her essays and all that bull, and another thing crossed his mind, this was her territory where he was, he had just gotten something down by a muggle, and now he was walking in muggle streets and being fascinated by muggle things, he looked up at the clock on the building called City Hall, and noticed he had exactly 5 minutes to get back to the Leaky Cauldron.

 "Oh, Mum look at this bag it's awesome!" Hermione said putting a green messenger bag over her shoulder, it had the British flag on the flap and random pins on the strap, her mother looked at it, "I did say you needed a new bag, ok now all you need is that shirt you told me about," her mother said looking at a rack of band shirts and vintage skirts and other things that Hermione had grown to admire.

 "Here, Hun I think I found it," her mother said holding up a black shirt with the band on the front and above them in big bold letters The Ramones, "Oh! Awesome!" Hermione said holding it up to herself, "Perfect size and everything," they brought the things to the checkout then left with the bags, "Where to next?" her mother asked looking into the windows of an antique store, "I don't care, I still need to get school things, just a few books and extra parchment and quills, that's all, because I had already bought the books that we require awhile ago for reference," Hermione said standing next to her and looking at a vanity.

  There was thunder rumbling in the distance, so they decided to go to Diagon Alley tomorrow, and headed back to the car, but before they did, her mother needed to use the loo so they stopped in The Leaky Cauldron, Hermione waited outside, she was looking at her compact mirror when a hand grabbed her arm and pulled her between the two buildings.

She turned around to see the person, "Dad! I told you to leave me alone!" she said struggling to get out of his grasp that was tightening more when she struggled, "but I miss you, I haven't seen you in a very long time," he said smelling her hair, "If you don't let me go I'll scream," Hermione said turning around, his smile faded and he squeezed her arm harder and she let out a yelp, "Don't you threaten me little girl," he said and started leaning in, but before he could do anything someone appeared in the opening, "Hey, let go of her," Hermione opened her eyes, as she heard the voice and the grasp was released and she watched her father run off, then she looked at the person who made him go away. Draco Malfoy.

 "Malfoy? What are you…?" Hermione started to say but was cut off, "What am I doing here helping you Granger? I heard someone yell, don't expect me to save you from molesters all the time, but then again you are mudblood trash, so it probably happens everyday, you must be use to it by now," he finished with a smirk, but it faded when he saw the tears well up in her eyes, "He wasn't a molester, he was my Father," she said and pushed past him out into the rain.

 He ran up to her, "Your father?" he said a little confused, "Yes, Malfoy, my father now if you please, I would like to go home and forget about this," she said pushing her drenched hair behind her ears and looking for her mother's car, "Well I'm sorry, I'll never be concerned about you again," he said then walked into The Leaky Cauldron just as her mom drove up.

 Hermione slid into the car and hung her head out and squeezed her hair before closing the door, then wiped off the eyeliner that had trailed down her cheeks, "Mia? What's wrong?" her mother asked driving away, "Nothing, just rained on," she said faltering a smile and looking out the window.

 As Draco was going through the trap door back to his manor with his father, all he could think about was Granger, she had a piercing, and it looked hot, and even in the rain with her hair stuck to her face and her eyeliner down her cheeks, she looked quite nice, but more then anything, he father was going to rape her, and she probably has done nothing to prevent it at all.

 But then again, neither has he, he was gazing off into space not knowing where he was walking until he walked into a wall on the second floor, he rubbed his head cursing himself and went down a level to his room and fell onto his bed and fell asleep almost immediately.

 Hermione dropped her purse on her bed and her bags on the floor and fell backwards and landed on her window seat, she opened her eyes and looked up at the grey rainy sky and sighed, what was she going to do, her father has been haunting her every step since the divorce, he was abusive and assault was his middle name, he had never actually raped her, but had gotten pretty close, she had started taking defense classes privately with other woman with the same problem.

 She got up and turned on her stereo and put on Jack off Jill and changed into a warm up suit and practiced a few, she feared that wasn't going to be the last close call with him, if it wasn't for Malfoy, who knew what might have happened, she stopped and thought about what she had just said to herself, was she secretly thanking him? =He did look pretty cute, and did you notice the tongue ring when he spoke? I sure did= her inner voice called out, she shook her head and did a few upper cuts and blocks, until her mother called her down for dinner she worked out like crazy to get Malfoy out of her mind.

 "Sweetie, is there something bothering you?" her mother asked cutting her piece of chicken, Hermione shrugged, "No, nothing really, just school is starting soon and it's my last year and I'm Head Girl, I'll have so many responsibilities along with homework and things, and oh my god! I have N.E.W.T.S this year!" she added smacking her forehead and shaking her head, her mother chuckled a little, "Don't worry Mia, you'll do fine, you always have, I have confidence in you, just pay attention and do your best, that's all I expect from you, not perfection," she said taking a sip of juice and giving a reassuring smile across the table to her stressed out daughter.

 Hermione looked up and smiled, "Thanks mom," she said then got up and cleared her plate and stuck them in the dish washer and decided a bath sounded divine, she turned on the taps around her tub and undressed. She soaked in the water and went under for a few seconds then washed her hair and body; she stayed in a little while longer until the water got chilly.

 She got out and drained the tub and wrapped a towel around her waist but left her hair out and just rung it into the tub and walked into her room and laid on her stomach on her bed and looked at her new books, she opened Standard Book of Spells Volume 7, they looked quite easy and noticed she knew almost all of them, until she opened the Potions book, she made a face of complete grotesque at some of the ingredients and most of the outcome of people that made mistakes with the potions.

 She decided to start studying the potions now because she knew Snape was not going to explain anything or tell them what might happen if they screw up royally, as soon as she opened the book, there was a crack of thunder and a bolt of lightening and the power went out, "Terrific," she groaned and rolled off the bed to go downstairs, but when she opened her door the power clicked back on, she shrugged and went back to the school book.

Ok 2 ½ pages is good enough for right now, sorry it took so long school started and my computer got hooked and unhooked because of the construction on my house, and sometimes, I have no idea's for ANYTHING! So here it is, another one on the way
