Chapter Six: Figured you out, Sort of
Ok here is chapter Six I hope you all like it.
So far in the poll Rome and Paris are tied!
Dracosgirl2515 made a really good point in her review. She said "If Hermione Granger is Draco's life partner, why doesn't he feel bad going out on a date with someone who, according to him, isn't Hermione? Since he's attracted to her and whatnot, wouldn't he know it is Hermione?" Well here is the explanation. If you noticed in chapter two Hermione thought "He hasn't changed a bit except his eyes seem so empty". Draco hasn't been with another girl since Hermione left and when she came back as Eloise Dodgers she brought more life to Draco's life that he hasn't felt in eleven years. And she just blind spots him that he doesn't realize that she is Hermione.
Also I know that I said anything italic/bold is people talking though their minds and anything italic/bold/underlined is flashback but in this chapter and only this chapter the italic/bold is Draco singing and the italic/bold/underlined is Hermione singing and anything italic/bold/caps is the singing together.
I am very sorry if this chapter seems rushed but that is how I wanted it
Well anyway on with the story!
Halloween seemed to come up on Hermione suddenly. "Gosh didn't school just start yesterday?" Hermione asked her son.
"No mom, it's been a month since term started," Alex said, looking at his mother over his copy of The Three Musketeers. "Are you going with anyone to the Halloween Ball? I heard rumors in the Slytherin Common Room that Prof. Malfoy is going to ask you."
"Alex, we have to get to breakfast, come on." Hermione said quickly, turning away so Alex wouldn't see her blush. Alex marked his spot and put the book down to follow his mom. Hermione went to her spot at the head table.
"Harry could I talk to you in private?" she asked.
"Of course, Eloise," Harry said. They both walked out of the great hall.
"Harry, are you going to do a talent show like the one we had in our seventh year?" asked Hermione.
"We haven't done one in a few years. Why do you want one?" Harry asked.
"Do you remember that song Draco and I sang?" Hermione asked. "It was 'Let me be your wings' from the cartoon 'Thumbelina'. Well, I want us to sing that, and that is when I will reveal who I am to everyone."
"All right, I will tell everyone right now that I came up with the idea to have a talent show for the whole school to join if they like. We will have it with the dance, the day before Halloween since it's on a Saturday this year." Harry said smiling.
Both walked back into the great hall and up to the head table. "Staff and students I have an announcement to make! This year for Halloween instead of our traditional dance we will be having a talent show. We haven't done one in a few years and I think we need one. Anyone can sign up to join! There will be a dance but it will be the day before so Head Boy and Girl and Prefects start planning tonight at your meeting" Harry announced. The whole school cheered and went on to eating breakfast.
"Eloise, would you like to go to the dance with me?" Draco asked not looking at her.
"Yes, Draco I would love to. Guess the rumors Alex heard were true." she said smiling
The dance came around very soon, to soon for Hermione. Hermione was in a panic that day since it was her second date with Draco. "I need to tell Alex before I tell Draco tomorrow night." Hermione said to herself.
She made her way down to the Slytherin dungeons to find Alex. She came up to the Slytherin common room portrait and shouted "Dragons Blood" and the portrait opened up for her. She started looking for Alex. "Alex, could you please come with me?" Hermione asked.
She and Alex went outside the common room. "Alex honey there is something I need to tell you." Hermione stated.
"Yes mother?" Alex asked.
"I lied about your father. He didn't leave us. I left him. Your grandfather threatened me when I found out I was going to have you. He said he would kill you and your father right in front of me. I couldn't bear the thought of that happening so I left your father after we graduated. Your name is not really Alexander Remus Dodgers. Your name is Alexander Remus Malfoy. Your father is Professor Malfoy and my name is not Eloise Dodgers it's Hermione Granger." Hermione said on the verge of tears.
Alex looked up at her with hate in his eyes. "You tell me this now? Does he know? I guess not. I hate you mother!" Alex screamed and ran off.
"Alex, wait please!" Hermione called but he didn't stop running. Hermione went off to teach her first class of the day.
Alex ran down the hallway and into a dark corridor when he suddenly fell to the floor and his world went black but the last thing he saw was a tall dark figure leaning over him.
The whole day she didn't see Alex and it was starting to get to her. 'Where could he be? Maybe he'll be at dinner' Hermione thought as she was making her way to her room.
When she got into her room she took off the charm that changed her hair color and found a letter on her desk. Hermione picked it up and started to read it.
Dear Miss Granger,
I saw you with my son that night you both went to Per mai amore. I thought I told you to stay away from my son if you knew what was good for you. I have taken your son and put him somewhere in the castle. Good luck in finding him. I know you thought I was dead but it helps to carry a polyjuice potion around with you. I found a muggle and used the Imperious Curse on him so he could take my place and make it look like I died. This is your second warning stay away from my son or else everyone you love will die.
Good day,
Lucius Malfoy
Hermione dropped the letter and ran towards Draco room. She started to pound on his door. "Draco it's me! Open up I need your help!" she cried.
Draco opened the door "Eloise what is wrong?" Draco asked not noticing her hair.
"He took him. He took our son. Follow me." Hermione said sobbing.
Draco looked at her like she was crazy and started to follow her. It took him about five minutes to realize that her hair was not black but brown and then it dawned on him, 'Hermione!' he thought. As soon as he was about to say something, Hermione turned to him.
"You go that way and I'll go this way." she said point to the left then to the right and ran to the right.
"Wait, Mione!" Draco said but she was to far down to hear him. Draco walked down the corridor checking each room talking to him self. "So Eloise is Hermione, and Alex is my…my…son. Oh my god what made her leave me? I have to find Alex." Draco said running.
Hermione walked down the dark corridor her mother instincts kicking on. "Alex! Where are you?" she yelled. She heard a soft humph from inside one of rooms and went to open it. Down the hall where Draco was at he heard something from inside one of the empty rooms. He went to open the door and Crookshanks came running out. "Crooks! You scared the shit out of me! Guess Alex is not here then. I should go and follow Hermione then."
Hermione slowly started to open the door. She stepped into the room and started to look around. "Alex, are you in here?" she asked then she heard the sound again and ran towards it. She found Alex bound and gagged on top of a table. "Oh no Alex!" she cried as she ran to him and untied him and took out the bandana out of his mouth.
"Mom I am so sorry. I didn't mean it. Could we please go back to your room." Alex cried as he flung his arms around his mom.
"Yes baby we can go and I forgive you I would have done the same thing. If I remember correctly there is a painting over here that leads to the corridor I am in." she said smiling as she picked Alex up and left the room and headed to a painting.
Draco made his way down the corridor Hermione was at and found and a door that was open. He ran in only to find it empty. "Damn it she left already. Maybe I can catch her in her room." Draco said as he walked out.
Draco went to her room and started to pound on her door. "Hermione open up I want to talk to you!" he yelled though the door.
"I'm sorry son. She has put a locking charm on it and a silencing spell on it. She won't let you in or hear you." A wizard said in a painting.
"Thank you sir. I guess I will see her tomorrow," he said as he walked back to his rooms
Halloween night came and Hermione was in her room scared to death. "Ginny how can I do this? I am so nervous" Hermione said as Ginny was doing her hair.
"Calm down girl, Draco doesn't know what you are going to be doing and he will drop dead when he sees you." Ginny said as she finished Hermione's hair. "There, all done. Take a look."
Hermione got up and looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a beautiful baby-blue empire waist prom dress that praised Hermione's shape, and had a sparkling embroidered high bodice with silver floral patterns in sequins. Her hair was just like how it was for her date with Draco. But she had light blue eye shadow on. "Ginny I look great. Thank you so much I don't know how I am ever going to repay you." she said as she hugged Ginny.
"Here Harry told me that you need to use this tonight." Ginny said as she handed her the invisibility cloak. "Good luck," and Ginny left her room and went to the Great Hall.
Hermione made her way there slowly standing in a corner looking at Draco. His eyes had the light in them like they did when they were in school.
The talent show started and it was pretty good but it was missing something. Harry stood up and looked out on the students. "We have one more act for tonight that is not on the list. Prof. Malfoy if you would please go to the stage." Harry said smiling.
Draco gave Harry the "you have got to be kidding me" look. "Prof. Malfoy please make your way to the stage." Harry said once more.
Draco got onto the stage and looked at Harry. "So Headmaster what am I going to do?" Draco asked.
"You are going to sing us 'Let me be your wings' from the cartoon Thumbelina like you did in your seventh year." Harry said.
"I'm sorry but I can't sing that since my singing partner is gone…" Draco started to say but the music started anyway.
He slowly started to sing beautifully into the microphone "Let me be your wings, Let me be your only love, Let me take you far beyond the stars, Let me be your wings, Let me lift you high above, Everything we're dreaming of will soon be ours, Anything that you desire, Anything at all, Everyday I'll take you higher, And I'll never let you fall, Let me be your wings, Leave behind the world you know, For another world of wondrous things, We'll see the universe, And dance on Saturn's rings, Fly with me and I will be your wings"
Then suddenly Draco heard the most beautiful voice in the world start to sing with him and then he saw Hermione standing next to him "Anything that you desire, anything at all." "Anything at all" "Everyday I'll take you higher, And I'll never let you fall!" "You will be my wings" "Get ready for another world of wondrous things" "WE'LL SEE THE UNIVERSE AND DANCE ON SATURNS'S RINGS" "Heaven isn't too far" "Heaven is where you are" "STAY WITH ME" "Let me be your (You will be my) WINGS!" They finished singing and looked into each other's eyes both tearing up. Harry flicked his wand and the microphone was muted.
"Draco I'm sorry I haven't contacted you since Alex was born but I was scared and I didn't know I was your life mate. Can you ever forgive me?" she asked softly not looking at him.
"What is this was business? You are my life mate and always will be. I guessed my father made you do this. I forgive you darling." Draco said as he pulled Hermione to him and kissed her passionately on the lips. Hermione kissed back of course and her foot popped (A/N: think princess dairies when she kisses he friends brother). The whole Great hall started cheering.
"Ladies and Gentlemen may I introduce you to Prof. Hermione Granger also known as Eloise Dodgers" Harry said clapping with the rest of the great hall as the happy couple looked into each others eyes, tears rolling down their faces, and smiling.
