Chapter 9 – Confirmations
It had been ten minutes since she left Malfoy Manor and Ginny still couldn't stop pacing. So Hermione dated Draco. Just the thought alone was hard to swallow, never mind they had a child.
What she couldn't fathom was why Harry would claim a child that was not his. There only had to be one explanation to his madness. He did it for Hermione.
Ginny wasn't a fool, she knew Harry loved Hermione. Which was why she was surprised when he approached her that night at Oliver Wood's birthday Party.
Come to think of it Hermione didn't attend that night. She must have been with Draco. Maybe that's why he did it.
She had become smitten with the boy who lived after her disastrous relationship with Seamus. Honestly she should have known better, she lost Seamus to another girl. He had been in love with Lavender. So why did she allowed herself to pursue a relationship with Harry knowing full well he fancied Hermione.
But after two months she started to believe they had a chance. That was until he broke her heart. She could still remember that dreadful day as it was yesterday.
Xxx
"Ginny" he said taking her hand "We need to talk". They had just finished eating dinner at the burrow and now lay together on her couch. The fire warmed the living room nicely and Ginny felt total contentment.
"Was is it love" she smiled, lifted her head to get a better look at him. "Ginny, you know I care for you right?"
"Of course I do" she beamed. Her heart sore with excitement. This was it; he was going to ask her to move in with him or better yet to marry him.
"Good" he sighed; "So you will understand why I have to stop seeing you" "What" she said jumping up.
"Harry you can't be serious. Why… Have I done something?" her face fell, this was not what she was expecting at all.
"No, your wonderful gin" he sat up unable to look at her. "It's me, I just.." "Don't you dare give me that it's me bullshit Potter. What is it?" she yelled at him.
"I just don't do love gin… you deserve more than that" he sighed "I care about you, I just don't see myself settling down and I can't let you waste your life, waiting for something that just wont happen"
"You don't know that Harry" she cried "The future is not certain"
"I may not know the future but I know me," he stated. "Things change Harry, people change," she pleaded
"And you know I'm not about too" he threw out "This is for the best"
"For you maybe" she spat angrily. "Ginny I don't expect you to forgive overnight. But I would still like to be your friend" he said standing up.
"I'll give you all the time you need, just believe me when I say this is the best for everyone".
Ginny just sat there to numb to reply. She didn't even seem to notice when he left.
That night marked the end of her and Harry's relationship. The rode to forgiveness was rocky but eventually she came to forgive him and they remained friends.
When Harry announced his upcoming marriage to Hermione she couldn't say she was surprised. He loved her and something inside of her always knew that day would come.
This very well may have been the reason Harry left her. Was it possible Hermione's mistake cost her happiness.
She always imagined Hermione to be a bright witch, but if you had smarts you didn't run around in sorts with a malfoy.
There were to many questions left un answered and right now talking to Harry or Hermione was out of the question. She needed to clear her head. Grabbing her purse she left the house, maybe she would pop in and see Lavender and the baby. Then it was straight back to Malfoy Manor for all her answers lay with Draco.
"Draco, we need to talk," she said stepping into the living room. "Talk, oh yes we do need to talk" he bit out sarcastically.
"Look I'm going to cut to the chase. I want you to stay the hell away from my daughter," she said forcefully.
He chuckled pouring himself a drink "I'm afraid I can't do that Hermione" turning to face her he frowned "You see there's the little problem with that since she is my daughter as well"
"She is not your daughter Draco," she pointed out.
Smirking Draco waved a finger in her direction "Oh I'm afraid your wrong about that"
Hermione groaned "Draco, she is not your daughter" She didn't know if this was even working but what else could she do beg.
"Cut the bullshit Hermione, I added it up. I know she's mine," he growled. Her eyes widen as grabbed on to his shirt.
"Draco please, leave her alone. She's too young to understand this." Hermione pleaded. "I missed two years of her life and I don't intend to miss another day" he scoffed chugging what was left in his glass.
Hermione wiped a tear from her eye as she struggled to stand. What was she thinking she could handle this man. This wasn't third year at Hogwarts. She wasn't going to get to slap him and make everything better.
This was real life, her daughter was at stake, and her whole future was at stake. "If you take her away I will never forgive you," she cried.
"Forgive me, forgive me, he scoffed. "You should be on your knees begging for MY forgiveness"
"I know" Hermione said falling on her knees. Draco looked down at her. It pained him to see her like this. But he needed her to hurt, wanted her to live in agony.
He wanted her to feel what he felt. To have your child ripped away and not even know. Yes he sent her away, he had to. Voldemort left him no choice.
He would have thought of something to keep her and his baby alive if he had known. "Draco" she whimpered from the floor.
"You will only hurt her. Please let her be" She slowly stood grasping the back of the couch for support "Think of what this would do to her" she whispered.
"Are you willing to hurt your own daughter?" she asked. Draco sighed, "I want to know her Hermione. I have no intentions of hurting her"
He poured another drink, he wasn't much for alcohol but it numbed the pain.
"This will kill Harry, Draco he is her father. Please…" The glass smashing against the wall cut her off.
"I'M HER FUCKING FATHER," he screamed crossing the room with a lighting quickness. He grabbed her up by her arms.
"Don't you ever call that bastard my daughter's father again" he warned. Hermione could smell the liquor on his breath as she tried to turn her head.
Never in their relationship had Draco ever wanted to hit her but right now he was dangerously close to it.
Hermione knew he was fighting a internal battle not to physically harm her. She closed her eyes expecting the worst.
Draco's anger seemed to melt away as he watched her close her eyes and tense up. Shit she was scared of him. This is not how he planned on dealing with this.
Hearing her say Potter was the father hit a raw nerve. His expression softens "Hermione" he raised her fingers to his lips.
"What did you think I was going to do when I found out about Ashlynn?
She didn't answer. He waited a moment, and then went on. "Hermione, Hermione, how could you think I would rip her away from you?"
"I never planned to try and gain custody just for my own selfish needs. How could I do a thing like that?" he said softly.
Hermione looked weary, something was off. He changed all of the sudden "I don't know" she frowned, looking at him searchingly.
"Then you're not going to try to get custody?" she asked him.
"No" he answered her dropping a kiss into the palm of her hand, "All I want is to be able to be a part of her life. I'm her father"
He smiled down at her "It'll all work out. And it will work out even better once were married"
"Married? Wait a minute…" she said. "No, Hermione. I'm not waiting any longer." He cupped her cheek with one hand. "I love you. I want to marry you"
"Ashlynn needs a dad, her real father. You need a husband and I need a lover" he spoke as if he had it all figured out.
Hermione tore away from him, giving herself some room to breath. "That was a long time ago, Draco. I do not intend to make that mistake again."
"You loved me once. I know you still do" She watched nervously as he fumbled with the bottle of scotch. "You really ought to lay off the scotch Draco," she said, her protective instinct kicking in
"I'm grown. I'll do as I please" He completely ignored her suggestion, pouring another drink. He paused stopping the glass before it grazed his lips.
Hermione watched and waited to see what he would do. Sighing with relief, as Draco sat the glass down. So she still had the ability to make him see reason.
She couldn't explain the sudden feeling of pride that thought brought her. "You know Hermione" he went on. "I still fully plan to marry you. I wont give up"
Hermione eyes darted to the ceiling "Draco, not this again please" "Are you saying you never though of marrying me?" his eyebrow rose in question.
"Once, I did dream of being Mrs. Malfoy. But that was a long time ago. Things changed, I changed, and you changed. The love we shared…"
"Gave us that little girl" he spoke up cutting her off. "Don't you want her to have a proper family? I do."
Gawking in outrage she turned on him " Why do you think I married Harry. She has a proper family Draco and that's not going to be with us" Barking out in anger.
She had enough with this. She came here to stop him and that's what she was going to do.
She cried out as he pushed into her. His fingers digging into her arm, as he glared maliciously. He continued to grip her arm tightly making her whole body rock back and forth in fear.
"I'm warning you Hermione" he spoke dangerously low "One more word about potter and you'll launch a war"
Yanking free she moved to the couch "If that happens," she said hurriedly, snatching her purse off the couch. "Ill fight you every step of the way. Harry and I both."
Running luckily out the door, she slammed it hard behind her. "SCREW YOU GRANGER" Draco screamed "YOU HEAR ME, SCREW YOU". Draco flew into a blind rage with a swish of his hand flinging the contents of the desk to the floor.
"You love me damn it. I know you do". She heard him sob. Placing her hand over her mouth, she choked back a sob.
"What have I done?" she whispered.
"Is misses alright?" the house elf asked with deep concern. Hermione didn't answer she couldn't answer. Nothing was going to be all right.
Part of her wanted to run back in there and comfort him. The part that would always cherish the time they spent together the part of her that still loved him.
He was hurting and it was her fault. But she was not the same girl anymore. She loved Harry now and they were a family her, Harry and Ashlynn.
She was bound by loyalty and love, and for that reason she stood up and walked out the door. She sighed with a heavy heart. She had no choice now. She had to tell Harry.
Ginny passed the nurses station when she spotted Luna walking ahead carrying a cup of coffee and orange juice. "Luna" she called down the hall.
Hearing her name Luna turned around careful not to spill the hot liquid. "Hey Gin. What brings you here? Your not sick are you?" Luna asked frowning.
Ginny laughed "No, no. I thought I would come see the baby" Luna grinned, "Oh he's precious gin. Lavender will be happy you came."
"Follow me, her room's just around the corner here" she called turning doing her best to balance the coffee and juice.
Pushing open the door Luna smiled "Lav, you have a visitor" she said holding the door with her foot. "Hey Ginny" Lavender said.
"How are you?" She added. "Never better. But I should be asking you the same question" Ginny giggled.
Rolling her eyes Lavender groaned, "I'm tired and sore but it's worth it" Smiling warmly Ginny nodded "You look great" she said.
"Thanks" Lavender said gently rocking the baby as he stirred. "Hi ginny" came a small voice from behind her. Ginny recognized that voice.
"Ashlynn" she said turning around. The little girl beamed up at her. "Hey kiddo, what are you doing here?" she asked. She didn't recall seeing Hermione anywhere.
"I wanted to see baby Willy" Ashlynn told her. "It's Billy, sweetheart" Luna corrected her.
"Where is Hermione? I didn't see her out in the halls" Ginny asked looking to Luna and Lavender. "My mummy is sleeping" Ashlynn said with big eyes.
"I brought her here with me" Luna exclaimed. "Harry and Hermione need the break, with all this mess concerning Draco. They seem to be under a lot of stress," Luna whispered so Ashlynn couldn't hear.
Ginny rubbed her arm "Oh, What's going on with Draco" she asked slyly. "Where do we begin?" Lavender said from the bed.
The ringing from the phone broke the conversation "Excuse me" Luna said reaching for her purse. "Hello, Luna Weasley" she answered cheerfully.
"Are you sure" she gasped "Yes sir I'm on my way" Lavender sat up "Is everything okay?" she asked Luna when she hung up.
"There was a breech at the ministry. It appears some files were taken. I'm afraid Neville needs my help" she said in a rush.
"By all means go. I'll be okay," Lavender told her "I'll be back as soon as I'm done" she hugged her friend before placing a kiss on the baby's head.
"Shoot" she said "What now?" Ginny smiled. "I totally forgot about Ashlynn. I can't take her to the ministry."
Ginny waved her hand "I'll take her. I don't mind." "Are you sure?" Luna returned.
"Yeah no prob. We have fun together. Don't we Ashlynn?" she said.
Ashlynn nodded and Luna smiled "Great. I'll call Hermione and let her know Ashlynn's with you. Thanks a bunch Gin"
"Anytime" she grinned as Luna disappeared out the door.
Ginny smiled down at Lavender "I should really get going to. I have a lot to do and I'm sure Ashlynn is tired."
"Yeah. I understand." Lavender agreed "Thank you for stopping by Ginny. It was very sweet of you" she expressed.
"I enjoyed seeing you Lavender. Congratulations to you. Both of you." She said with as much sweetness as she could muster. "Little Billy is truly adorable"
" I'll stop back by soon" she said. Lavender nodded "I look forward to it"
Ginny walked to the door "Come Ashlynn" she called to the girl. "Bye Aunt Lavender" she said waving. Blowing a kiss to her Lavender waved back.
Ginny stopped once they reached the elevator kneeling down so she could look at Ashlynn properly. "Do you like surprises?" she asked.
"Yes. Do you have one?" she gasped in awe. "I sure do sweetheart. How would you like to go someplace special?"
"Oh, where is it? She wanted to know. "It's not far from here but before we go I need you to promise me something. Can you do that?"
"Sure" she shouted not holding back her excitement. "Okay, I need you to promise me you'll keep this a secret" She pleaded softly.
"A secret" she said puzzled. "I can't tell anybody. Not even Mummy and Daddy?"
"Not even Mummy and Daddy" Ginny repeated. "This will be our little secret. What do you say"?
Ashlynn seemed to ponder it for a second then broke out in a smile "Okay" "All right then" Ginny laughed taking her hand. "Let us go"
Harry managed to end up in good spirits considering he was quite disappointed when he met up with Ron and Seamus. After his shower he returned downstairs to finish what he started with Hermione.
He wanted another taste of her before he headed off, which led him to find the note she scrawled saying she left for the hospital. He was left to wait till tonight.
During the trip he recalled certain events of their love making, improving his mood greatly. A few times he had to wipe his mind in fear of becoming aroused.
" Harry, you seem cheery now," Ron said grinning, "Why the sudden change of heart," Seamus teased.
Harry blushed "Sod off" he said turning back to the window. What else was he suppose to say? I'm ecstatic because I slept with my wife for the first time last night.
Not likely .He needed to get his mind out of the gutter. The task he faced ahead was going to require all his attention. He had to convince Dumbledore that Draco was bad for the ministry. He just hoped they would get through to him.
Five minutes passed and they finally arrived at Hogwarts. Harry was the first to reach the doors. Opening them he headed for the familiar stairs he climbed some years ago.
Some of the passing students stopped to stare as the great Harry Potter walked the halls of Hogwarts once again. "Wow look it's Harry Potter" one of the girls said.
"And, is that Ron Weasley?" her companion gasped.
Ron smirked following Harry up the stairs, "Hello girls" he said waving. The girls ran ahead giggling.
"Hey, I'm here too. Seamus Finnigan" Seamus said "Who?" said a boy standing by the door leading the Gryffindor common room.
"Give it up Finnigan, they know a winner when they see one" Ron chuckled earning a slap from Seamus.
"Quit fooling around" Harry hissed. "Sheesh, keep your shirt on" Seamus yelled motioning to Ron to follow.
"Okay, someone guess a password" Ron said standing in front of the statue. "Lemon Sherbet" Seamus said. "Acid pops"
"Canary Creams" Harry said. The statue sprung to life, showing the doorway leading to the headmaster.
"Well it would seem, Dumbledore values Fred and George inventions" Harry chuckled "Yeah I'll be sure to tell my mum" Ron spat out sarcastically.
"All right once we see Dumbledore, I want you two to focus. We have to convince him allowing Draco into the ministry would endanger everyone." Harry said.
He lightly tapped on the door hearing the soft voice of the headmaster tell him to enter.
"Awe Mister Potter, Mr. Weasley, Mr. Finnigan. What brings you to Hogwarts?" said Dumbledore softly.
"There's a little matter at the ministry sir and I need you to fix it." Harry muttered.
"I see" Dumbledore said. "You are referring to my recommendation of Mr. Malfoy no?" "Quite rightly" Ron snapped.
"Sir, I need you to talk to the minister, Draco can not be allowed to work there." Harry told him.
Dumbledore sighed, "I happen to think differently" Harry closed his eyes in frustration. This wasn't happening.
"I am afraid," said Dumbledore slowly, looking at each of them. "I have every faith in Mr. Malfoy"
Harry chuckled in surprise "Pardon my bluntness, But you are aware he very well may set his father free. I don't trust him."
"Fair enough" Dumbledore sighed looking Harry over, behind his half moon spectacles. "But if I may" he stood up walking to Fawkes cage.
"Ask yourself this. What reason do you have to lack trust in Mr. Malfoy."?
"Plenty sir. For starters he helped Voldemort and if that's not bad enough" he paused "He's getting too close to Hermione."
Dumbledore smiled " As far as Draco helping Voldemort, I've already explained he was indeed working for me. Now concerning Hermione" His eyes seemed to bore into Harry's soul.
"I think we both know she is in no danger" Harry stared opening his mouth as if to say something and losing the voice it required.
"Dumbledore, tell us. What work did Malfoy do exactly? Asked Ron. "That Mr. Weasley is between Mr. Malfoy and myself," he said.
"You wont tell us and yet you expect me to trust him," Harry gasped in frustration.
Dumbledore settled himself on the chair once again before looking up "Harry, I think very highly of you, as you know" he said softly.
"I trust in your judgments and feelings with no hesitations. There was a time you felt the same about me"
"All I ask is trust me this time" he spoke calmly
Harry hung his head in his head as Ron and Seamus looked on in shock "So you're not going to withdrawal the recommendation?" Seamus said surprised.
"That's crazy, Harry say something" he spat.
Harry lifted his head staring rather intently at his former headmaster. "Fine" he said standing up "I'll leave it for now. But listen to me. If this turns out to be a foolish mistake" Hr gulped before continued "I won't be there to save the world this time"
Harry turned swiftly heading the door. He wanted to get out of there before Dumbledore said something to weaken his resolve.
Dumbledore said nothing as he watched Harry leave. He had hoped the old rivals would put the past behind them. Apparently Harry picked up a little more from the old potions master then he expected.
Harry felt guilty as he descended the stone steps. He didn't mean to lash out in the end it was his bloody nerves. Everything had been so perfect before Draco reappeared.
"Maybe Dumbledore was right, maybe the git had changed. So he wasn't ready to call him friend but maybe he could trust him. After all Malfoy hadn't really done anything to pose a threat.
Sure he approached Hermione a few times, even gave his daughter money. But did he really do anything wrong other then hurt his pride.
He and Hermione had a special bond. One that couldn't be broken, last night proved that. He was going to move on with his life, forget Draco and concentrate on what was important. Hermione and Ashlynn.
"Wow. It's pretty" Ashlynn said coming up the long drive way. Ginny had to laugh. The girl had taste, she couldn't deny that. "Just wait till you see the inside," Ginny told her.
"Is it pretty inside too?" the little girl widen her eyes as they approached the door. The handle wound around the door in the shape of a serpent. Two small rubies sat neatly as eyes felt smooth under her fingertips.
"Wow a snake. I love snakes Ginny." She said in amazement. "Do you now?" Ginny asked smirking. Oh yeah this girl definitely favored her bloodline.
"Now Ashlynn. Once we go inside you must be on your best behavior. No touching stuff. This is Mr. Malfoy's house and I really don't think he wants anything broken." Ginny said sounding very serious.
"Ginny" Ashlynn said lowly "My daddy and Mummy said I'm not allowed to talk to Mr. Malfoy"
The older woman kneeled down fixing the button on the girl's dress. "That's why this is our little secret" she smiled smoothing the dress down.
Ginny took a deep breath as she knocked softly on the door. She only hoped Draco didn't freak out or worse kill her for coming over. He wasn't in the best of moods when she left him earlier. With a little luck, he had time to calm down.
Ginny grinned as the small house elf opened the door "Misses, master wouldn't be wanting company" she whispered looking scared.
"I'll only be a minute, I assure you he'll be wanting to see us" she spoke brightly walking right passed the creature and into the foyer.
Draco groaned when he heard the knock. Surely that stupid house slave would reconsider letting anyone else into the manor today. He leaned back on the couch closing his eyes. He couldn't shake the image of his fight with Hermione.
She had been so opposed to his offer of marriage and it hurt. There was a time when she looked at him with love and admiration. He didn't witness that today.
Her eyes were cold and distant, as if the Hermione he knew was never there. It was Potter, he knew that and no matter how hard it was to admit it. He lost her.
Hermione was gone and she wasn't coming back.
Only question left was could he bring her back. After her dealings this afternoon did he even want her back?
That was stupid, of course he did. He missed her, needed her. What did this house really mean to him if he couldn't share it with the woman he loved?
"Draco are you in here" Ginny called from the doorway. Immediately his hand flew off his eyes. Weasley? What the hell was she doing back here?
So much for reliable service he thought "Weasley, get the hell out of here. I thought I told you to leave me alone" he growled returning his arm over his face.
"Is that any way to speak in front of company?" she said offensively. "I don't see him Ginny?" Ashlynn said looking around the room for the source of the voice.
Draco sat up quickly and regretted it instantly. His head still felt disoriented from the scotch. "Ashlynn" he chocked out.
"Hello Mr. Malfoy" she said smiling brightly. Draco didn't believe it his daughter was here. It wasn't a hallucination due to the scotch. She was really here. In his house, in her house.
"Oh wow. I umm. What do I owe the pleasure?" he stammered directing the question to Ginny though his eye never left his daughter.
"Well I was just in the neighborhood and Ashlynn thought the house was pretty" Ginny said, "So I figured you wouldn't mind if she saw it"
He grinned, "You like it" he asked. "It's the bests house I ever saw" she awed. "I'm glad you like it little lady" he said.
Ashlynn gasped as she walked around the couch "You didn't clean up your mess, your mummy is going to be mad at you." She said spotting the remains of his outrage.
"Umm, I was just about to get that" he blushed sheepishly waving his wand. The room was restored back to normal.
"You can do magic?" she clapped. "You know I'm going to do magic to. Someday I will go to Hogwarts" she seemed quite proud of that.
"Hogwarts is a good school. I went there when I turned of age." Draco winked "You went to Hogwarts?" she asked enthusiastically.
"Sure did" Draco nodded, "Graduated not too long along actually." He smirked. "What home did you go too?" she asked.
Frowning at her he folded his arms "I'm not sure I understand the question" He looked too Ginny for help only to get a shrug.
"I said" she began looking extremely frustrated. Oh yes she was definably like Hermione. "What home did you go to? You know at school," she repeated.
Draco laughed, "Okay now I understand. It's called a house, not home. I was sorted into Slytherin," he said with pride.
"Now which house would you like to be in?" he found himself asking. "Oh Mummy told me all about the houses. I'm going to be in the best GRYFFINDOR," she shouted.
"Gryffindor" he spat disapprovingly "No Malfoy has ever failed to place Slytherin".
Ginny gasped, looking at Draco with warning. "Does that mean all Potter's go to Gryffindor" she asked not catching his meaning.
He wanted to shout out she was a Malfoy. But the image of Hermione warning him of the damage it would cause. He refrained the urge to do it.
"We shall see" he told her managing a small smile.
Ginny coughed getting his attention "I think it's time we left. I should really get her home now" she said.
Draco didn't want her to go. He wanted to speak to his daughter a little longer. His heart ached to know every thing about her. He wondered if it would be selfish to demand she stay.
But she was right. It was too soon for her to learn the truth. If she stayed any longer, he couldn't promise he wouldn't let it slip. He was determined not to fuck this up.
"Oh, yeah. It is getting late" he said. "Maybe you can come another time?" he looked over at Ginny, his eyes pleaded with her to grant his request.
"I don't see why not. How does that sound Ashlynn?" Ginny asked. "I like your house Mr. Malfoy" Ashlynn said happily.
"Please call me Draco" he smiled. Ashlynn looked appalled "That is rude. Mummy says you should always call people properly," she whispered lowly.
He chuckled. So his little girl was socially inclined, a Malfoy trait no doubt. "Okay. Feel free to call whatever you like," he told her laughing.
"Come Ashlynn" Ginny called taking her hand "Say goodbye to Mr. Malfoy" Ginny told her.
"Good bye Mr. Malfoy" her chubby hand waved and he felt renewed. It was like seeing her awakened something in him. He knew right then and there, he had to fight for her.
And Hermione and Harry weren't they only ones who could fight.
Draco walked them to the door each step felt like pure bliss. "Feel free to stop by anytime" he said once they reached the front porch.
They descended the driveway when Draco called her "Hey Weasley" She looked back in surprise, "umm… Thanks" he said.
Ginny smiled and continued to walk.
