Chapter 4 (soon to be named)

When Albus Dumbledore and the rest of the crew traipsed into the hospital they were given quite a few unfriendly stares. Dumbledore shrugged them off and continued on with his business happily; to talk with Draco Malfoy.

They approached the nurse sitting at the reception who stared them all up and down sniggering behind her spectacles.

"We are here to see Mr. Malfoy, I believe he was submitted to emergency a few hours ago" Dumbledore said gracefully, that twinkle in his eyes.

"I'm sorry, but no body is able to talk to the patient at this current stage" the nurse said with a hint of malice in her voice.

"May I ask why that is young lady?" Dumbledore spoke kindly to the girl.

"One, he is in a very insecure condition, two, it's the middle of the night, early morning, three because there are too many visitors, and fourth of all you are not relatives to the boy" she said twining her hair between her fingers chewing gum.

"Excuse me?" Hermione spoke for the first time since leaving Hogwarts.

"Yes?" the nurse replied barely glancing at Hermione.

"As a matter of fact we are all relatives" she said bitterly, the rest of the professors looked at each other and returned their gazes to Hermione thinking the perfect studier, squid and goody-too-shoes is telling a lie.

"I am his fiancé, and these are his legal guardians" she pointed to Madam Pomfrey and Snape, "And this is Grandpa Al and Grandma Minnie, we are his only family and this is an urgent matter," her tone was firm and harsh.

"Fine then, but you can only stay for 20 minutes max, no more than that ok?" she spat.

"That will be long enough" Snape said giving the nurse a putrid stare. (a/n – go Snapey!!)

Draco was sleeping motionless when they entered his dimly lit room. Dumbledore quickly put a silencing spell on the room as Hermione made sure the door was locked.

The professors gathered around the foot of his bed, as Hermione walked up to him; taking his extremely pale hand in hers.

"Malfoy, Malfoy; wake up" she said as gentle as possible. His eyes opened slightly, it looked as if he was making an enormous effort just to open his eyes.

"Ah hello my boy" Dumbledore said walking closer to Draco's other side.

"W-whe-ere a-a-am i-i?" he slurred, his speech was slightly impaired.

"I find that miss Granger will be able to fill you in on those details later, but right now we are more concerned for what's happening in the present and future" Professor McGonagall stated tonelessly.

"Who did this to you dear boy?" Madam Pomfrey asked motherly.

"M-my f-fat-ther" he stammered still quite groggy from all the anesthetics he had been given earlier on. They all gasped, they couldn't believe this, Lucious Malfoy beating up a 16year old boy?

"That's blooming outrageous!" Snape spat, "I've known Lucious nearly all my life, he would not put his heir in jeopardy, he'd be risking too much".

"Severus, look at the poor boy! Is that not enough proof for you? Or would you rather let him die and then figure out he was telling the truth about Lucious" McGonagall snapped, spraying spit all over Snape's black robes.

"I think we should leave Albus, Mr. Malfoy has gone through enough for on night, we; can come back tomorrow and check on him!" Madam Pomfrey said smiling at Draco. He struggled a smile back; but managed with a bit of effort.

"I would like it if somebody stayed here with me tonight" Draco said coolly.

"Of course, Mr. Malfoy, Severus, would you like –"

"Um, I'd rather it if Granger stay sir!" he said, looking as if he would pout any moment soon.

"Ok, miss Granger, is that ok with you?"

"Of course headmaster, anything" she said blushing a light shade of pink.

"Albus, I must concur; I will stay with him since –"

"Severus, the boy had requested miss Granger, it will be her who stays tonight"

With that they waved goodbye and left the two on their owns, vowing to return in the morning...
