Chapter nineteen ~ Too Much Information.
Hermione arrived back at the common room later then usual. Ron and Harry were sat by the fire playing a game of chess, Hermione walked straight past them and sat down with Ginny and Luna, who were desperately trying to finish a potions essay.
Harry looked across at her.
"Maybe we should go and talk to her." he said.
Ron scowled. "She can't keep things from us and expect us to talk to her."
"I know but, Tamarisk asked her to keep it a secret, you can't really blame her. I'm gonna go and ask her to sit with us." He said, getting up.
"Hermione, why don't you come and sit with us?"
She shrugged. "It's okay, Harry, I'm fine here."
Harry walked back over to Ron, who muttered 'I told you so' in an annoyed voice.
Harry tried to concentrate on the game, but he couldn't think straight, Ron however was on form and beat him easily.
Harry got up and walked away towards the dormitory, Ron stared after him in shock. Hermione didn't even notice.
The next day Hermione was up and dressed, before the boys even woke up. She went down to breakfast, and sat reading the Daily Prophet, which as usual had no useful information in it, more post office strikes then what the temporary minister was up to.
Tamarisk strolled past her. when she saw Hermione she stopped to talk to her.
"How is Rayola?" Hermione asked, in an under tone.
Tamarisk sighed. "As well as can be expected. It would have been much better if my mother was here, but Rayola just doesn't recognise anyone, it's quite disturbing."
"I'm sorry." Hermione muttered.
Tamarisk shrugged. "It's Draco I'm worried about," she said, looking over at him, she caught his eyes and smiled. "Look I'll have to go." she walking off.
Hermione got up from the table just as Harry and Ron arrived. She smiled at them and walked off.
Harry and Ron stared after them. "What is up with her?"
Later on Hermione went down to the library, where she had arranged to meet Draco. She sat down at the table opposite.
He sneered. "So you came?"
"Evidently." She replied.
"No need to be so cocky, mud.Granger."
Hermione smiled. "Your sister spoke to me this morning."
"I saw."
"So.why.why was she kicked out the family?"
"Something you haven't found out?!" He demanded.
"It's not like that." She muttered, awkwardly.
"She was kicked out 'cause she didn't fit in with my father's picture of the perfect Malfoy Family." He got up. "Look this is a stupid idea."
"I'm the only one who knows, so the only one you can talk too!" Hermione reminded.
Draco sneered. "Yeah, whatever."
"Malfoy!" she shouted after him as he walked away.
He turned around annoyed. "What do you want, mudblood?"
She scowled. "I can see the Malfoy side of you showing through now."
He glared at her. "Just leave me alone."
"What is your father planning?"
"To rid the world of scum like you!" he said, before turning and walking off. Hermione was left seething. For just a few seconds she had Malfoy in a different light, as he was when his father was no longer controlling him. the person trapped inside. she sighed and collapsed down on to the chair.
That night when she returned to the common room she found Harry and Ron bent over a letter, and Hedwig resting impatiently on the windowsill.
"What's going on?" she asked.
Harry looked up, he passed her the letter without a word.
Harry, Just to keep you updated, nothing has happened. Moony.
"What's wrong with that?"
"Can't you see something strange about the letter?!" Harry demanded.
Hermione read it again. " 'Just to keep you updated, nothing has happened', it's almost like he was going to tell you something then changed his mind." Harry nodded. "And no warning me to be careful." He went to the windowsill and absently stroked the feathers on Hedwig's back. "Anyway where have you been?" "Library." She replied.

Meet me, same place, same time.
Read the simple note. Hermione stared at it for a moment or two, a smile playing on her face. Malfoy would be a useful ally against the Temporary Minister, if she could get him on her side. She went a long to the library, and sat at one of the empty tables, pulling out a book, and started reading. She might as well do something productive whilst she was waiting for him to arrive. He approached the table and sat down.
"So?"
"So."
"Why did you ask to meet me?"
He shrugged. "There is something I thought you should know."
"And that is?"
"Rayola Snape - I know you know where she is, well my father is looking for her."
"And why would you tell me that?" she asked.
He smirked. "Well, actually I'm surprised you didn't know it already."
She smiled sarcastically. "Hmmm, very funny. So why is he after her?"
"More then my life's worth." Draco said, getting up. He seemed to think better off it and sat back down. "So you can contact her, then?"
Hermione nodded. "Yes, easily."
"Maybe you should tell Snape."
Hermione nodded. "Yeah, good idea."
Draco smiled. "So er.Snape knows where his sister is?"
Hermione was shocked at what Draco had tricked her in to betraying. "Well.no.I don't know." she muttered.
"So have you met her, Rayola Snape? I mean if you can contact her easily."
Hermione jumped up horrified. "This was all some vicious trick, to find out stuff about the Order! You're despicable Draco Malfoy!"
"Sticks and stones." He grinned. "Worked though didn't it, truth be told my father has known for a long time about Grimmauld Place!"
"What?! How did he find out?"
"He didn't, but you just confirmed it, mudblood."
