(Disclaimer) I do not own anything remotely related to Harry Potter…sad isn't it? All I own is…um…THE PLOT!! MWAHHHAHAHAA! Although, I'd love to see what people come up with for a fic by making Draco muggle born…hehehee…
A/N: An update!! WHOOO!! Sorry for the slow updates on my other fic. I'm getting right on it! Thank you to all reviewers!! You guys are the best!! Thanks!
Last time on The Last Chance!…
"Oh I understand Malfoy…I understand perfectly! You couldn't get to know me before because I was a mudblood but now! Oh ho! The big bad Slytherin prince is muggle born as well! And you want sympathy?! I traded my friends to find out that secret and all you're saying is sorry I can't still be the ass I was before…"
Hermione was cut off.
"I didn't mean it like that…" Draco began angrily.
"Then what did you mean? It sounds perfectly clear to me!" Hermione yelled crossing her arms.
"Fine! Say what you want!" Draco said crossing his arms as well.
"I WILL!" Hermione yelled turning to walk away.
"You are a MUDBLOOD!" Draco yelled his anger getting the best of him.
Hermione turned back around and slapped him across the face.
She quickly stomped away while Draco stood there glaring at her disappearing figure.
Now on The Last Chance!…
Hermione stormed into the Gryffindor common room and broke down in tears. Passing students staring at her and one even came to see if she was all right.
"No…" She whispered as she ran up to the girl's dormitory and laid down in her bed.
As she cried she faintly heard the door to the girl's dormitory open and close.
Hermione didn't care anymore so she continued to cry.
She felt the side of her mattress go down as someone sat down.
She turned her head quickly to see Ginny staring off into space.
Hermione opened her mouth to speak but Ginny beat her to it.
"He really loves you, you know." Ginny mumbled sadly.
Hermione looked down at her pillow.
"He's always loved you. I could never compare to you and he still doesn't see it." Ginny explained with a sad smile.
Hermione looked back up at Ginny sadly.
"Ginny, you don't understand. I don't love Harry." Hermione said turning back to her pillow as she thought of Draco once more.
Ginny turned to her friend.
"You-you don't love him? But you're best friends…Lavendar and Para…" Ginny began.
"Exactly, we're best friends. He's like my brother as is Ron. I could never love them like I love…" Hermione trailed off.
"It doesn't matter. Harry doesn't see me more than Ron's kid sister." Ginny said sadly.
Hermione turned back to Ginny.
"You might be surprised. I don't think you should give up. Show Harry what he's missing. He'll need a friend now." Hermione explained.
"What about you?" Ginny asked Hermione just now noticing her puffy eyes.
Hermione stared at Ginny shocked.
"What happened?" Ginny asked putting a hand on her friend's shoulder.
"I-I" Hermione broke into tears once again.
"What is it?" Ginny asked worriedly.
"I found out why Dr-Malfoy was so nice to me." Hermione said turning away as fresh tears ran down her cheeks.
"Oh, Hermione. What was it?" Ginny asked comfortingly.
Hermione turned to Ginny with a tear stained face and slowly opened her mouth.
"He's muggle born. The only reason he was nice to me is because he just found out that he isn't a pure blood and that he could never pretend to be now that he knows the truth. He was just using me because there was no one else." Hermione cried.
Ginny looked shocked.
"Are you sure?" She asked.
"Yes, he just told me." Hermione cried.
Little did either girl know but Lavendar and Paravati were sitting in the next bed over with their curtain drawn.
Once they heard Hermione come in crying they stopped talking to listen what had happened.
"Are you sure Draco Malfoy? The Draco Malfoy is a muggle born?" Ginny asked.
Lavendar and Paravati looked at one another in shock. Immediately after they had huge grins across their face and Lavendar put a hand to her mouth to silence the giggles.
"Don't worry Hermione, as much of a prat as Malfoy is he'd never use you like that. It's been obvious the past few days how much he loves you." Ginny said with a smile.
"No, it was a lie. He never…" Hermione trailed off.
"Hermione listen to yourself. You and Draco have become closer in the past few weeks than I've gotten to Harry in a few years. You should go for it." Ginny continued.
"But why would he tell me? He just wants to be a jerk." Hermione explained.
"He hasn't changed." Hermione said turning away.
"Hermione, Draco may not have changed in personality but it's obvious he's had a change in heart. Why else would he tell you that? It's his biggest secret!" Ginny said with a smile.
Hermione still looked to Ginny with sadness.
"At least talk to him Hermione. Find out the truth." Ginny said.
Hermione nodded.
"Come on. Let's go down to the bathrooms and see if we can clean you up." Ginny said pushing a strand of hair out of her friend's face.
Hermione nodded.
"Thanks Ginny." Ginny smiled.
"No problem." Ginny said and both girls left the girl's dormitories.
As soon as they left Lavendar and Paravati squealed in delight.
"Did you hear that?! Draco Malfoy is muggle born!! Who would of thought. We have big gossip for tomorrow!" Lavendar whispered in delight.
Paravati nodded.
"Come on we need to get ready for tomorrow!!" Paravati said jumping off the bed and was about to run out of the girl's dormitories.
"Wait, what if Hermione and Ginny haven't left yet?" Lavendar asked grabbing her arm.
"Right, we can get ready now and by tomorrow the news will be out!" Paravati yelled excitedly.
Lavendar laughed.
Draco walked into the Slytherin common room in a sour mood.
"I don't understand it! Wasn't that supposed to work? I told her so she's supposed to fall into my arms right? So much for the Malfoy charm." Draco thought sadly.
He walked up to his dormitory and layed down in his bed to stare at his ceiling.
"No sleep tonight." He thought with a sigh as he rolled onto his side and thought about Hermione.
The next morning Draco's eyes opened as a light was shining on his face.
"What the?" He asked opening his eyes slowly.
Draco, after focusing, looked around the room and noticed a window open.
He growled as he looked around. No one was in the dormitory.
"Am I late?" He asked groggily.
After figuring out what time it was he realized it was time for breakfast.
He quickly got up still somewhat asleep and got ready.
After finishing up he walked down to the common room where there still was not a soul in sight.
"That's weird." Draco thought as he left the common room and headed to the Great Hall.
On his way he saw a few students and as he walked by they all seemed to look up at him in shock and then start whispering.
Draco glared at a few but on the inside he was dumbfounded.
As he reached the Great Hall more people stopped to stare at him as he entered.
Harry walked to the Great Hall early in the morning. He was still half asleep and didn't get a very good night sleep last night.
All he could think about was what was bothering Ginny.
It didn't make any sense.
He kept thinking back to the night before and how she told him not to worry.
How could he not worry about her?
The whole thing gave him a headache.
He sighed as he opened up the doors and walked into the Great Hall.
He walked to the Gryffindor table and sat down next to Ron.
Immediately putting his head in his hands and his elbows on the table.
"What's wrong with you?" Ron asked happily.
Harry turned to his grinning friend and sighed.
"Long story. Why are you in such a good mood?" Harry asked.
"You haven't heard?" Ron asked excitedly.
"Heard what?" Harry asked lifting his head and looking to his red-headed friend curiously.
Just as Ron was about to answer the Great Hall doors opened and in walked Draco Malfoy.
He looked like he didn't get a great night sleep either.
The entire hall went silent as everyone stared at him.
He looked around confusedly and slowly walked to the Slytherin table as every eye was on him and sat down.
Everyone at the table stood up and left or moved down.
The doors again opened and in came Hermione.
She looked over at the Slytherin table and saw everyone moving away from Draco.
Her vision landed on him and he glared at her dangerously.
He quickly stood up not losing her eye contact and grabbed her arm dragging her out of the Great Hall.
Once the doors were shut everyone began to talk.
"What was that about?" Harry asked referring to the silence as Draco entered.
Ron grinned once again.
"You are not going to believe this. I can't believe no one told you." Ron said happily.
"Ron, will you just tell me what's going on?" Harry asked.
"Well, the story is, you aren't gonna believe this, Malfoy is muggle born." Ron said happily.
Harry's jaw dropped wide open.
"I know!" Ron said with a grin.
"Are you sure?" Harry asked disbelievingly.
"Of course I'm sure. It's been going around Hogwarts for hours." Ron stated.
"HEY!" Hermione yelled as Draco dragged her out of the Great Hall.
"Who did you tell?!" Draco asked angrily.
"Tell? What are you talking about?" Hermione asked.
"Everyone knows Hermione!" Draco yelled.
"Knows?" Hermione asked still confused.
"That I'm muggle born!" Draco yelled in her face.
Hermione stared at him shocked.
"Who did you tell?" He asked dangerously.
"No one, I…" Hermione trailed off.
Draco stared at her shocked.
"I trusted you." Draco whispered.
He turned and walked away.
"Draco no…I'm…sorry." Hermione began loudly and slowly trailed off.
Hermione stormed into the Great Hall and walked straight to Ginny.
"Who did you tell?" Hermione whispered angrily.
"I swear I told no one Hermione." Ginny began shocked.
"I woke up this morning and it was all over the school but I swear I never said a word." Ginny explained.
"Then how did everyone find out?" Hermione asked confused.
Just then Lavendar and Parvati walked into the Great Hall all smiles.
Hermione and Ginny looked at one another and then to the two girls that entered the room.
