In Malfoys moment of surprise his grip slackened and Hermione with some quick wit Hermione managed to shove him off her. Since he was still stunned at what she said he toppled off quite easily and Hermione was on her feet with wand in hand quick as lightning. Malfoy sat motionless on the floor since his wand flew out of his hand and he was at the mercy of a very angry witch. Hermione slowly made her way over to Malfoy still with her wand pointing at him and calmly she spoke.
"This Malfoy is for making me life hell for the past six years" Malfoy knew he couldn't dodge her spells sat there still not protecting himself.
He did not expect however for her to chuck her wand away and start kicking, punching, slapping and scratching every part of him. So he was surprised yet again and didn't do anything. Until it started hurting him that is then with a cry he hurled her against the wall. Where on impact she slid down the wall and put her head on her knees with arms round her head and dissolved into tears.
Draco was really quite shocked he had never seen her like this and it was kind of scary . . . kind of? Hell it was freaky and terrifying. He kept his distance not knowing what to do so he walked over to where a door now was and without a backward glance walked out closing the door with a slam behind him. Hermione was alone again.

Why couldn't he stop thinking about her? She wasn't that important. Plus he still hurt from all the wounds she gave him. It was two days since they were stuck together and he still couldn't stop thinking about her! He hadn't seen her at all since then even at meal times, Potty and Weasel seemed happy enough he didn't think she had told them. This was a relief for him since he couldn't be bothered to argue with them.
Today was the Hogsmeade trip so he needed to go and get loads of Christmas presents which he had neglected to do. It was now the 21st of December. His mother would be hurt if he didn't send anything and his father would get mad. He didn't have much choice really.
Twenty minutes later Draco was walking down to Hogsmeade on his own since Crabbe and Goyle had been giving a detention for beating up a second year in front of Dumbledore, therefore they were now cleaning every single class room in Hogwarts. That would take them the whole day by Dumbledore's reckoning. But his time Draco was just entering Hogsmeade and it was starting to snow again so he drew his cloak more tightly about him still trudging through the snow. HE slowly walked past all the well known stores and continued down a grubby ally way.
Draco them pointed his wand at the wall and said in a low voice "P Une Po" The wall slid forward and to the left out of sight as Draco walked in unafraid of the darkness in front of him. He stopped looked around as if puzzled and then called in a loud voice "I have come" Lights sprang about all around him letting him see the dingy counter in the corner with the rusting till on top and the cabinets that lined the walls and finally a small balding man sitting in a chair.
"Well, well Mister Malfoy it has been a long time since I have seen you in here! What will you be requiring today?" the bald man asked.
"I would like please the most beautiful present for my mother you know her likes and something for my father Mr. Dron" Draco listed
"Ah I see Christmas presents is it? Well I do have the most beautiful thing that your mother will adore. Just came in yesterday. A beautifully hand crafted silver necklace with a . . . a . . . a well there seems to have been a mistake with it. The stone in the middle of the heart was supposed to be an emerald the rarest one in the land but instead a ruby was set in the middle. Still beautiful I guarantee but still Mrs. Malfoy does not favor red as I believe." With this the man took a deep breath.
Draco pondered for a moment thinking of this situation. Finally after a couple of moments he said slowly. "Let me see this necklace first. Then if I think it will be alright I will buy it but if not . . . I know that you will have something else in the store."
Mr. Dron then gave a small bow and hurried into the room behind the counter. A couple of minutes later he came back with two slim boxes in his hand. HE put the fatter of the two on the counter and opened the smaller box for Draco to have a look at.
Draco stared into the box. There lay the most beautiful necklace he had ever seen (and this was coming from a boy's opinion). In the box was a shiny silver necklace with a fantastic work of craft of a heart with wings. And set in the very centre of the heart was a sparkling stone of ruby which when caught the light cast red images over the walls. Draco was staring at it in awe. No way could he let that be sold to anyone else. But then Mr. Dron was right his mother hated red.
"Let me see the other one" He commanded. Mr. Dron then undone the other box. Inside it was a silver necklace. It was the same as the other one except it looked less impressive. The silver seemed dulled and the emerald in the middle was not sparkly but looked dull like the silver. Well Draco thought, it seemed that he had no choice but to buy the slightly dull one. But he would buy the other one as well. He couldn't risk it going to someone else.
Draco cleared his throat. "I will but both of them. You never know when it will come in handy. Oh! Don't forget to send my usual to father. And don't forget this time like last year that was awful."
"Wise choice Mister Malfoy. Wise choice indeed. I won't forget this time. Wrapped? Yes I thought so. Here you are. I will deduct your money from your account. Don't worry about a thing sir. Good day to you and goodbye." Mr. Dron said as he handed over the now nicely neat packages and vanished into the room behind.
Draco turned and walked out of the shop with the boxes in his hand. His fathers present would be sent to him on Christmas day. As he came out into the ally way the wall closed up behind him and could not be distinguished with the wall around it. He walked out of the ally way. Only to when he came out onto the street to bump into somebody.

Hermione had somehow got back to her dormitory without anyone seeing her and managed to clean herself up. Ridding herself of her red eyes and making sure she looked presentable. With steadying breaths she made her way down the stairs and into the common room where she found Harry and Ron sitting on the sofa talking to one another.
"Hi guys" She said. In and instant they got up and gave her a big hug and started apologising about how they were lame friends and they were stupid and how she could hex with any spell she wanted as long as she would forgive them. In the end she just laughed and gave them a hug and told that there was no need for them to be hexed because she would have done the same if she had known there was so much snow.
"I'm just glad that you're here" She said. "I have some troubling news that I should have told you before but didn't. I'm sorry. This is a long story so be patient."
In the next half an hour she had told them how she had found out that she was a pureblood and that she was in fact a mistake. She told them that her mother had not told her who her parents were. Harry and Ron sat there stunned at the news but like true friends were happy for her. After they had spoken a bit Hermione asked them not to tell anyone.
They talked for hours and hours about where Hermione was and how suddenly she had vanished from the room of requirement and they couldn't find her. They had even started to go to Dumbledore. But when they were at the gargoyle that guarded his office they looked on the map again and saw that she was back at Gryffindor tower. (They had spent at least half an hour trying to figure out what to say to her) Until finally Hermione announced that even though they had missed dinner she was going to bed since she was so tired. They all said goodnight and went their separate ways.
Hermione woke up in the morning feeling tired and irritated. She hadn't slept much that night. She slowly put on a t shirt and jeans for the day and slowly made her way into the common room. Just in time to see Harry and Ron make their way to the portrait.
"Hey!" She called feeling a bit annoyed that they were now back to the way they were already!
"Hi Hermione" Harry answered "We were just going down to breakfast. We waited ages for you but you took forever. It is almost 9:00 you know?"
"Oh? Well I'm not hungry anyway so like just go down I'll see you later" Hermione said and shoved them towards the portrait.
"Well ok see you later" They both called and waved as they went round the corner. Hermione went slowly up to the dorm and slept.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The next day and a bit passed the same Hermione didn't eat much apart from what she had in her room. The only thing that made her go out was the Hogsmeade trip. She needed to buy loads of stuff. She got ready dressing in a purple polo neck top and blue jeans. After breakfast had gone which she didn't attend, she made her way to the front doors. There were loads of students there and a long queue but it soon passed and Hermione was out in the open experiencing the joy of the Christmas season.
Soon she was in Hogsmeade shopping on her own since she was buying Harry and Ron's things. She went into Honey dukes to get chocolate and sweets for her self. Then she was in the joke shop buying stuff for her best friends. To keep them happy for awhile. Then she went to a wizarding shop that sold everything. So she bought self house hold cleaning kit for her parents so they could have a break.
With all her shopping done she started to head back to Hogwarts. Carrying all her nice parcels. As she passed an ally way someone came out and bumped into her.
A/N: There you are it is now done! That took ages! Thanks everyone so much for your nice reviews. I am sorry if this chapter is a bit bad. Like I said above I had writers cramp. I will try to do better. Water demon
