Oh, yes and I am looking for a beta reader if anyone wants to volunteer for the spot...
Chapter 4
"Mother!" Draco hollered as soon as he got back into the house.
Narcissa came strolling into the room casually, but stopping dead in her tracks when she saw Draco's face.
"Draco dear, what in the world is the mater with you?" Hoping it wasn't something else about this betrothal with the Verona girl.
"Why didn't you tell me that Hermione Granger was in actuality Hermione Verona?!"
And the moment Narcissa Malfoy dreaded finally came... "You just found out honey? Surely Dumbledore told you before school had gotten out about Hermione's true identity." Narcissa smiled sweetly hoping Draco would buy that line of donkey shit.
"Don't lie to me mother." No such luck... "I know when you use that smile your telling someone a load of Dragon Dung!"
Draco's Point of View
'How could she even do that? Just expect Dumbledore to tell the truth about Hermione when even she doesn't know. Gods I love my mother with every ounce of pureblood I have, but she can be such a bloody nitwit at times!'
"Draco honey, I'm sorry. I should just tell you the truth! You are considered an adult in both worlds now."
'Would she get on with it already! I know she's long winded but damn! I wanna know!'
"Draco, when you were five; sixteen years ago." 'yes... what does this have to do with it? Wait! A few years days ago she said this was when I became betrothed.'
"Yes mother, you have already told me most of this." 'Geez... parents!'
"Draco! Don't get mouthy! I know I have told you most of this, but you need to know all of it."
'Wow, I had no idea she had it in her to do that!'
"Yes sorry mother. I shouldn't have lost my temper."
"Damn right you shouldn't have lost your temper! Anyhow the Veronas were very good friends of ours. You and Hermione were completely inseparable. We loved them they were just as evil, maybe even more evil than we Malfoys. Well, your father...err...got in a spot of trouble... Gambled most of our money away. It wouldn't have been so bad; we could have lived with little money. But the Dark Lord didn't like the idea of your father gambling away our hard worked for inheritance money in muggle casinos, racetracks, and bars. So Mr. Verona went through the trouble to give us enough money to survive extravagantly. To pay him back all we had to do was agree to let you and Hermione become betrothed to each other. Of course we completely agreed. You and Hermione loved each other, of course just a puppy love, but we still all knew that it was there... But... The Dark Lord didn't like this one bit and decided that the Veronas were not faithful servants and ordered for their deaths. Which is why the Veronas had to go into hiding. They gave up Hermione to a muggle adoption agency. Then the problems began..."
'Wow, I never knew... But I still wish they had told me sooner!'
"Mother, how long do I have until Hermione and I have to be married?"
'She said something I didn't quite hear but I definitely got the gist of it'
"What?!?" I screamed!
Regular Point of View
"Hermione I will repeat, remove your wand from my head or I shall have to put it into your permanent record that you threatened the world's greatest wizard." Said an extremely familiar voice.
"P-professor? W-what are y-you d-doing here?" Hermione stuttered.
"Please, Miss Verona, call me Albus now, you are no longer at school."
"Y-yes Si- Albus."
"I do believe I owe you an explanation..."
Dumbledore ended up explaining everything to Hermione.
"So, what your saying is Pr-Albus is that my parents were on the good side... But pretended to be evil to help the good side? And while they were finding out information from the Malfoys, they ended up becoming great friends, and I actually got along with Draco? Professor, not to be rude...But, are you on something?!"
"No, Miss Verona I am not on anything. In fact I have more to tell you... But I feel you should read it instead of me telling you because I have no idea how to tell you."
"Thank you Professor, you have helped me immensely."
rmione walked into her twentieth story flat that night and immediately opened up the package Dumbledore gave her. After reading through it a few times... She sent Draco Malfoy a letter hoping he could help her out in some way... Maybe in understanding it better than this letter helped her understand.
She decided that Jade would take awhile to deliver the letter to Draco, so she took a quick shower and got ready for bed. She didn't hear the soft pop behind the door while she climbed into bed.
Draco's Point of View
'Wow, she's gorgeous... And not even a Mudblood, how could I have forgotten her? Oh! I remember, my mother put an obliviate spell on me so I wouldn't recognize her at Hogwarts. Gods, I feel so awful for that!'
