Chapter 10: Betrayal
By: Hatred Violence and Cruelty
Last time: That night I didn't sleep a wink. I couldn't, thinking about that guy, laying across the common room from me, thinking of a way to break it to me that he didn't love me.
So I decided to take a walk. I pulled on my night gown, and went into our common room. Expecting it to be empty, I shrieked when someone grabbed my arm. Whoever it was was much stronger than I, and was able to trap me under his weight and cover my mouth, preventing me from screaming
Then he spoke.
"So, you think you can just leave me like that, for that scum?"

"Ron?"
He just stared down out me with a maniacal grin on his face.
"You will always be mine. You will always be mine," he repeated over and over, as he crushed under his weight. Then he started doing the unthinkable.
Grabbing at my gown, he let go of my mouth. I screamed as loudly as I could, in fear this might be my only chance.
In shock he rolled off of me, and I grabbed my wand.
"Stay away from me," I said calmly, not matching how I felt inside.
He stood up, and walked towards me.
"Stay away from me. I mean it. I will hurt you."
I was then cut off my him jumping on me. My wand knocked out my hands, and my head hitting the ground, I saw spots. He ripped my wand from my grasp and put a silencing charm on me.
I hit him with every ounce of strength I could muster, but he was too strong. He ripped my gown off, and started with my night shirt. Whimpering silently, I went through my kickboxing moves that I had learned over last summer, but I drew a blank, and as my shirt came off, he looked down at me, eyes with no emotion.
Then he raped me.

{Draco's POV}
I couldn't sleep, so I decided to take a walk. I slipped on my robe, and walked out to the common room.
With the light from the moon showing faintly through the windows, I could make out the silhouette of a small body, shaking.
I lit my wand, and walked closer. There on the floor, was Hermione, covered in a blanket, and crying silently.
I kneeled down and whispered urgently, 'Hermione? What's wrong? She looked up at me with pure terror on her face, and opened her mouth, but no sound came out.
Realizing she was silenced, I reversed it, pulled off my robe, and covered her with it. She was sobbing.
I wrapped my arms around her, and she at first seemed to push me away. But, like she realized that I wouldn't hurt her, buried her head into my shoulder, and cried even more.
"Hermione, I need to know what's wrong." I said slowly, gently as possible.
She raised her head, and with tears streaming down her face, she replied, "He raped me. He came here and raped me."
Fear growing in my eyes, I responded, "Who? Who did this to you??"
She lowered her head back onto my chest, and mumbled quietly. Not being able to hear her, I asked again. She started shaking really hard and screamed,
"RON!! HE RAPED ME!!! I AM GOING TO KILL HIM. HE ROBBED ME OF THE ONE THING THAT WAS TRULY MINE!!!"
She broke down, and cried into my arms. I wrapped my arms around her, and talked to her. About anything that would calm her down. And soon she was asleep. I looked down at her, her tear stained cheeks, her body wrapped in my robe, and swore to myself, 'I will avenge Hermione if it is the last thing I do. For Hermione, my love, I promise you.'
I then closed my eyes, and fell asleep.
