Disclaimer: I own nothing! Come on people, do you think that if I were actually JKR, or part of the Warner Brothers massive global community, that I'd be whiling my time away on fan fiction, writing a rubbish story, when I should be working on book six or film four for the adoring nation? No? Didn't think so!
Chapter Thirteen: Impostor!
Hermione shifted slightly in the gilded seat she currently sat in. The twins were on her right, excitedly waving bright orange flags, with the motif of the black speeding canon ball entwined with a double 'C', emblazed on the middle. She smiled to herself, and continued looking around the moderately sized box. There were only a few people seated and she did not recognize any of them. Harry had yet to arrive. The door opened sending in a blast of icy cold wind. Hermione shivered slightly, and Draco noticing wrapped his arm around her pulling her in closer to him. Hermione blushed, vaguely embarrassed at this public display of affection. Someone cleared their throat behind them. Hermione turned around and was met with the red faced, wind blown, slightly shocked but nether the less happy face of a very pregnant Ginny Weasley. "Ginny!!" Hermione squealed happily, standing up quickly to wrap her friend in a hug, careful of her large bump. "Your big Gin!" she exclaimed after releasing her friend. Ginny grinned broadly, placing a protective hand over her tummy. "Mum thinks this baby is going to won't out in the next month and a half!" she exclaimed, her cheeks flushing with anticipation. Hermione smiled at her.
"Auntie Ginny!" cried Libby, throwing herself into Ginny's arms unexpectedly. "Ooof!" muttered a surprised Ginny, managing to retain an upright position. Luckily Libby did not harm her bump in her excitement. "Hey Lib!" Ginny greeted smiling down at the beautiful girl. "Where's Leo?" she asked the small girl in her arms. Libby pointed her brother who was sat in his chair, eyes glued to the pitch waiting eagerly for the start. Ginny chuckled slightly. He reminded her of Ron. "Leo!" she called to him. He jumped startled slightly, looking wildly around the room. As he spotted Ginny his eyes widened and he repeated his sister's action of embracing Ginny, crying "Auntie Ginny!!" Ginny laughed as she extracted herself from the touching embrace. "I gotta sit down before I collapse!" she informed them, waddling over to sit in a seat behind Hermione's. She sat down with a sigh of relief as Hermione laughed, remembering her own pregnancy where she carried twice the weight of Ginny around her midsection.
"Auntie Ginny," said Leo, "'Meet our daddy!" he said indicating himself and Libby, whilst pointing at Draco. "Hello Draco, long time no see" Ginny told the man, looking anxious next to Hermione. He smiled slightly at Ginny, anxious for her acceptance. "Hello Ginny..." he said carefully. "How are you?" he asked, trying to be polite. "Pregnant" answered Ginny waving an unconcerned hand over her stomach. Draco chuckled slightly. "Yes I can see that!" he informed Ginny, who grinned at him.
"Ginny? Are Freddie and Georgie coming?" Leo asked looking at Ginny imploringly. The twins got on famously with the other twins, maybe because they were all twins! "I'm not sure love... I think so". "Okay!" replied Leo happily, swinging his legs under the chair.
"Mommy I'm cold!" complained Libby. "Kay, Baby. Hold on a sec" said Hermione, reaching underneath her chair and removing two black fur lined cloaks, with strong silver clasps, with their name's engraved in the middle. She handed Libby her cloak, which she immediately wrapped around herself, smothering herself in the wonderful warmth, the cloak combined with a warming spell provided. "Leo love, do you want your cloak?" she asked offering it to him. "Kay!" he mumbled, reaching over and taking it from his mother, then draping it over the thin material of the cargo pants he wore. Hermione smiled at her children, before leaning back into her chair. She jumped when someone entwined their fingers in her hand, but relaxed when she realized it was only Draco. She turned to face him, and smiled softly at him. He looked so handsome in his muggle clothes. The white shirt clung to his abs nicely, emphasizing his athletic frame. She grinned to herself as he leaned over and kissed her on the nose lightly. His lips soon found hers and she gladly gave him the acceptation he was craving. They ignored Leo's disgusted cries of "Mommm!! Dadddd!!". Ginny looked unbelievably shocked behind them, but soon recovered her composure before snorting softly at Leo's cries of disgust. "Leo honey, in a few years time you'll be doing that!" she indicated at his parents, smirking slightly. "Err no!! Girls have cooties!" he informed Ginny, under the severe glare of his sister. An incredulous voice suddenly reached the ears, and Hermione tore her lips away from Draco's distinctly recognizing the voice.
"Bloody hell George is that Hermione?" asked an incredulous George from somewhere near the door. "Yea! I think it is! Why's she kissing that slimy ferret!?" Fred answered his brother, apparently unaware that everyone else could hear their conversation. "Dunno" answered the still incredulous George. Fred taking a hold on the matter charged up to Draco, gripped him around the neck and physically pulled him away Hermione, dumping him unceremoniously in a chair nine seats away. "Fred what are you doing!!" shrieked a red faced Hermione, alerting all the occupants of the Top Box. "Saving you from him!" Fred cried, jabbing an accusing finger into Draco's well built chest. "I don't need saving from my boyfriend!" she shrieked at them, reminding both George and Fred of their mother. "Boyfriend?" sputtered a shocked George, before realizing the idea occurred to him that this must be some twisted scheme of Malfoy's. George rounded up on the scowling Draco, angrily pointing an accusing finger at him. "What have you done to our Hermione?" he accused. "Is she an impostor? Is she under the imperious? Well? What do you have to say for your self now that we've caught you out?" he asked wildly rather like a policeman would after catching teenagers' graffiting in the local park. "You're a bloody idiot!" shouted Draco. "We beat you up in fifth year and we'll do it again! Don't push your luck pretty boy!" Fred declared as a hysterical Leo jumped on George exclaiming "Don't hurt my daddy!!" .Draco taking advantage of Fred and George's momentary surprise jumped up from the chair angrily. He gathered up Leo standing defiantly and scowling at the twins.
Fred and George after a momentary brain lapse, both grabbed their wands intending to hex Draco, but were stopped by Hermione imploringly shrieking "NO!" and positioning herself in front of Draco and Leo. "I can fight for myself!" Draco told the hysterical Hermione, standing in a protective manner in front of them. "Uh-huh" she muttered clearly not hearing what he had just said, or simply disbelieving. The twins looked at her, but had no time to reply as Harry rushed into the box, exclaiming loudly that the match was about to start. He halted as his eyes fell upon George and Fred both gripping wands looking as if they were about to hex Draco, who held a scarily smirking Leo in his arms, who were stood behind Hermione looking rather like a wild cat protecting her cubs.
"What have we here?" he asked calmly. The twins glared at him before answering, "This ferret here" Fred said jabbing his wand at Draco, "has put Hermione under the imperious curse" George answered "or has locked up our Hermione and replaced her with this impostor!" Fred declared brandishing his wand like the powerful and great wizard he thought himself to be. "Leo move!" ordered George, "So we can hex this slimy slytherin into the next century!" "No!" cried an irrevocable Leo. "I won't let you hurt my daddy!" he told the twins, stead fast refusing to move. "Come on Leo! Just a little hex? We'll let you have a joke box?" George tried to bribe Leo. He grinned to himself, as Leo's eyes widened slightly before asking, "Really?" in a disbelieving voice. "Really, really!" Fred chirped nodding his head vigorously, distinctly reminding Harry of a doggy on a dash board. Leo seemed to consider his choice, his eyes glazing slightly, He ignored Draco's imploringly glance, his eyes showing he was slightly hurt by his son's near enough agreement for him to be hexed. "I've decided" Leo announced. "I'm not gonna move, unless...." Leo trailed off.
Harry decided to act before anyone was hurt. Plus the game was about to begin and he didn't want to miss anything. "Guys, Draco hasn't done anything to Hermione. Honestly. She is acting on her own intentions. She told the twins about their father, and she is currently dating him" he declared quickly, becoming decidedly disinterested in the conversation. The effect this had on the twins was rather impressive. They were actually silent for longer than thirty seconds. "Bloody hell Fred I think Harry's telling the truth!" declared George again apparently unaware that everyone could hear their conversation. "Why would see choose to date him?" asked Fred confusedly, demonstrating that the only part of Harry's declaration he heard was the part that consisted of Malfoy and Hermione dating. "No idea! Maybe she's suffering from some sort of amnesia or brain malfunction!" said George this idea only just occurring to him. "It's plausible..." agreed Fred. "I'm perfectly fine you dolts!" cried Hermione with irritation resisting the urge to go and knock some sense into them. "And I'm dating him because I want too!" she told the twins, enjoying their look of puzzlement. "Like him? How could anyone like him?" George asked incredulously staring at Draco in disbelief. "Yea Hermione! Why don't you dump him and date George?" Fred asked this idea seeming logical in his mind. "No offence George, but I don't think it would work" Hermione told George nicely. "Oh" uttered a slightly flushed George as he slapped Fred around the head. "Idiot!" he declared. "OW!" Obviously the idea that perhaps George didn't want to date Hermione and vice versa had never occurred to him.
At that moment, a whistle sounded on the pitch, and everyone scrambled to get into their seats, the argument forgotten for the moment. The twins picked up their discarded flags and began to wave them, as Hermione lie back on Draco's chest, immensely glad that the prior argument had been abandoned for the moment. She cheered raucously along with her counterparts as the commenter in the box announced Ron's name. She grinned to herself while watching him speed around the pitch in robes of vivid orange circling the stadium and waving to fans.
A:N: Lol I bet your all thinking the match will never happen! Next chapter I promise! Thanks to all who reviewed! Two updates on one day! Whoa, it's like christmas!! :-)!
P.S.: If there is not an update soon, have no fear it's mainly due to the internet thingy, and due to the fact that I have extremely important GCSE mocks in core subjects straight after half term (Monday 1st November is when they begin!) which I unfortunately have to study, revise and prepare myself for. I hate exams. So anyways, don't fret Lol, I will update again, and I shall not ever abandon this story, unless something irrevocable happens to me, like I get hospitalized or die or something!
P.S.S: Halloween soon!! Hope you all have fun things planned!! I have a sleepover to attend tomorrow (which is sat, Halloween is on Sunday, a school nightï
