Chapter 3
She put the letter under her pillow and doubled check she had everything ready for tomorrow morning to leave for the train. Five minutes later she went to bed.
Next Morning
Hermione had gotten up to the sound of the Twins snickering. She walked to the door and opened it, "Wot are you two doing?" The twins spun around to find Hermione, "Oh nothing!" They said, and then they walked down the stairs.
Right before she started walking back to the bedroom she heard Mrs. Weasleys voice in a whisper voice, "Hermione can I speak with you?" "Yeah, sure." They walked down to the kitchen and sat down at the table. "Well this is very complicated, it's weird for me lately Ron and well--" Mrs. Weasley was trying to say.
"Yeah I know I kind of picked up a letter about his girlfriend." Hermione finished. "Oh thanks god because are trying crying when I try to mention it, but this might be odd for you now well this might be even odder, um, here read this letter." Mrs. Weasley hands her a letter that reads:
Dear Ms. Granger,
I hope you are looking forward to another great year and no matter what happens it will stay that way. You ask why I'm sending this and telling you to have a great year. Well I understand there is great tension between Slytherin and Gryffindor houses, especially between Mr. Malfoy and you. But I hope for this to change, as I am informing you, your not really a Granger. You're a Malfoy. You are probably shocked on how you could be, bravery, courage, smart you wonder how this can fit into Slytherin well it doesn't. Draco would have been Gryffindor if his father didn't raise him. Mrs. Malfoy had tried to raise you but Lucious didn't like the way she was raising you and plus he didn't really want a daughter so when you were 3 he sent you to a Muggle family. And till this day you think you are muggle, but if you were you probably wouldn't have gotten a letter to come to Hogwarts. So you really are a pureblood.
Wish great wishes,
Albus Dumbledore
Hermione started to cry. "Oh my god, I can't believe it, I'm not a Granger." She cried harder as Mrs. Weasley let her cry on her shoulder. Harry came down the stairs tired looking but then snapped awake when he had saw there was something wrong with Hermione. "Hermione, you alright?" Harry tried to ask. "It's best you read and not ask." Mrs. Weasley suggested, and pointed to the letter on the table. Harry walked over to the table and picked up the letter and read it.
Feeling shocked and dumbfounded he put the letter on the table and walked over to Hermione. "Hermione it will be alright ain't like you have to live with him or see him, the only time you will see him is during classes." Harry told her. Hermione looked at him. "Harry, it's not the fact that I'm related to Draco or not wanting to see him, it's that I've been living a lie my whole life, for 16 years." Harry looked down trying to think of something to say. "I'm sorry Harry, I keep forgetting your parents are gone." Hermione apologized. "It's alright" Harry hugged her. Mrs. Weasley left the table. "Ginny, wake your brother we have an hour before leaving." She yelled up the stairs.
"I'm so confused I don't know if I should go back to my 'home' or to my real home." Hermione began. "Wel--" Harry started but got cut off. "It would be weird going to the Malfoy manor I mean it's covered in slytherin objects." "Yea--" "I guess I could go because Lucious is dead now, so I guess I wouldn't get tormented." She stopped talking. "Hermione, do what ever you would like to do, just don't make yourself unhappy." Harry finally got to say. "Thanks for the advice Harry." She walks up the bedroom and gathers her things. "The letter!" she says aloud. She reaches under her pillow and pulls it out. Ron walks in, "Wot's that letter in your hand?" "Uh—um nothing" she hinds the letter behind her. Ron gives her the look of I know something is going on now tell me. "Fine!...I'm a Malfoy."
"Wot! A Mal--" Ron tried to say
"Yes! I'm a Malfoy!"
"You're a wot!" Came Fred's voice.
Hermione reaches into trunk puts in Ron's letters and takes out the letter from Dumbledore. "Here it's all in this letter." She hands them the letter
