"Ron? What are you doing here? I'm so glad to see you..."
"Well, how nice of you to join us Mr. Weasley, I'm glad to see that you were able to make it" Lucius said smiling.
What was going on? Ron? But why does Lucius not seem surprised to see him, and why isn't Ron helping me.
"Ah, yes Mr. Malfoy, I flew as quickly as possible when I received your letter. Now, what are your plans, Mr. Malfoy?" asked Ron, glancing at me with a huge grin on his face.
Lucius seeing the confusion on my face explained, "Ms. Granger, I had asked Mr. Weasley here to come over, and have some dinner with us, isn't that right, Mr. Weasley?" asked Lucius calmly.
"Why yes, I was so eager to come by, and to know that my favorite mudblood would be joining us, I was even more eager."
Mudblood? What is he doing? He never called me mudblood; as a matter of fact he defended me in my second year when Draco called me a mudblood. Draco...I wonder if he knows that Ron is at his home.
"Come Ms. Granger, since it is far too late to have our little fun, go upstairs, and there you will find a lovely gown, put it on, and I will come to fetch you. That will be all, now go."
I was still struck with shock, but still did as I was ordered, thinking maybe Ron is planning to help me, by making Lucius believe he turned evil. This made me fell a lot better and so I left looking behind at Ron, smiling, but he just looked at me with disgust. This is not good, whats going on. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know. Should I try and run for it?
While walking to my room, I thought about escaping, if maybe I can escape without Lucius finding out. Yes, but then what about Draco, or what about Ron?? I wish I knew what was going on, but I didn't have much time to think about it, because there standing in front of my door was Draco.
"Hermione! Are you okay? I heard from the house elf that a red head fellow had just entered, who is it?"
"It was Ron, but I don't understand what hes doing here. He said he was invited by Lucius to have dinner. Why do you think he's acting this way?"
"I don't know, but I will try and find out, I need to hurry and get dress, I'll see you downstairs, my love."
With that he gave me another kiss, and held my chin up so that I could look in to his silvery grey eyes. I wish we could have kissed all day, but it was getting late and he wanted me to get dress.
He walked away blowing a kiss at me, and then disappeared into another room. I walked silently into my room and saw a beautiful green gown that had a large 'M' in the front of it. I quietly got dress, and put my soft curls up into a ponytail.
When I was finished dressing I walked over to the bathroom, and there was a wand, but before I could too excited, it was for makeup use only. I swerved the wand towards my face, and my face was no longer pale, but beautiful with pretty eye shadow and eyeliner curving around my eyes. I then heard a knock at the door, and just completely ignored it, knowing that it was Lucius.
"Now Ms. Granger, do you not think that I would get disappointed when my guest doesn't open the door to my own house?" Lucius asked calmly.
I walked over to the door, and was about to turn the handle when I flew back, for he had burst open the door.
"Now know this you little bitch, I want you to follow my commands when I tell you to do something! Do you understand me?"
I ignored him once again and was looking down at the gown I was wearing and saw that it was all wrinkled.
"Look at me when I talk to you bitch! Crucio!!!" he exclaimed.
Again he hit me with the Crutacius Curse, fear and pain overcame me once again. I wanted to crawl up and die, again. Why does he do this, is he not man enough to at least hurt me like a man. I must have been saying it, instead of thinking it, because I just said," A-are you...are you not man enough to ...ac-actually hit me, instead...of cursing me."
With that the curse stopped, he was grinning ever so widely.
"What did you say mudblood? That you want me to, hit you?"
I got up after almost falling over because the pain was still there, I was shaking but still had the courage to say, "Well, I was just asking, since all you ever do to hurt me is the Crutacius Curse, and well that is a bit...not manly isn't it? I mean if you really wanted to show me that you were a man, and that you were 'stronger' than me, then you would not have to use your wand to hurt me."
"Well we'll see about that."
He then threw his wand on the floor and took off his cloak. He was actually buying it. If I could at least get near the door. He then walked over to the bed and sat down. He had something behind him, but I wasn't sure what it was.
I immediately ran over to his wand and once I turned around to point at him, he was gone. He was nowhere in sight. I was confused, where had he gone? I stood there with his wand still upheld, when I was grabbed by the arm and pushed onto the bed. Then something slithered off the invisible figure standing over me.
"Do you think I am stupid? I knew what you were up to. When I invited your friend Ron over I asked him to steal a very important material that belonged to your dear friend Harry and so I thought I could give a try.
"Well, how nice of you to join us Mr. Weasley, I'm glad to see that you were able to make it" Lucius said smiling.
