Chapter 6-Oh Brother
Hermione walked back towards the train and saw Ron and Harry sitting with her trunk. They stood up when they saw her coming and she shifted uneasily when she reached them.
"Sorry about running off, I had to give Malfoy his, uh, notebook from our project. Are you guys ready to go home?"
"I am." Ron said, "I just want to sleep."
Harry looked away sadly, "I wish I could have stayed at Hogwarts."
"We know Harry. I told you, as soon as we can get you to the Burrow you'll be there."
Hermione hugged both her best friends and walked to her parents waiting by the door. She sat her trunk down and jumped into her father's arms.
"Oh my gosh, Mom, Dad, how are you ? I've missed you so much since Christmas. There's loads I have to tell you."
They smiled at her and her mother spoke, "We have plenty of time to talk dear, let's get home, I made your favorite dinner!"
Hermione and her parents walked out of King Cross Station and got into their car. They drive home only took them about twenty minutes. When they got home Hermione put her trunk away in her room.
At dinner Hermione started telling her parents all about her term after Christmas. She told them about the Potions project and how Harry and Ron were doing. They had even asked her if there was a boy yet.
"Well, you see, there is a boy that I like. We got in an argument shortly before school got out though, so I'm not sure what's going to happen."
"Oh that's wonderful honey. Tell us his name?" Her mother inquired.
"Draco, Draco Malfoy."
Her father spit his tea from his mouth and looked up at her, "Isn't...isn't that the boy who has picked on you all these years dear?"
"Yes dad, but he's changed. He's had some family problems, I really think he is a good person."
"Well, I'm so glad for you honey. I would like to meet him one day, maybe in Diagon Alley?"
"Maybe mother, maybe."
MMMMMMMMMM
Hermione spent the first two weeks of her summer moping around her house. She thought of nothing but Draco. She fought the urge to owl him everyday.
She sat in her room one day and decided to write him a simple note. She picked up a piece of parchment and wrote, "I miss you." She then got her owl to take it to Draco.
Draco
Draco was sitting in Malfoy Manor on his bed. An owl flew in his window and dropped a note on his chest. He opened it up and saw three words, I miss you. He shook his head and wrote back, "Does this mean you forgave me?" He sent the letter off with the owl and went down stairs to the dining room.
Hermione
Hermione was in her room later that night when her owl flew it with a note from Draco, "Does this mean you forgave me?" She smiled to herself, "I forgave you the moment you kissed me."
The next couple of days Hermione was feeling a lot better. She went shopping with her mom in London and got some Muggle clothes. Her mom took her into a Muggle salon and one of the women taught her how to straighten her hair. She got her ears pierced and bought some earrings. She had decided that she wanted to look good for Draco. She had always liked the way she looked, but she wanted to change it up a bit, just like she had changed. Not drastic changes, just small ones.
One week after Hermione's shopping trip, she was up in her room watching television. Her parents had gone out to eat for their anniversary. She heard a knock at the door and went to answer it. When she opened to door she saw Draco with his broom. She jumped into his arms and just stayed there.
"Okay okay, let's get inside before someone thinks something strange is going on."
Hermione led him inside and set him down on the couch, "Oh my gosh Draco, what are you doing here?"
"Well if I'm not welcome I'll just leave."
"Oh no you won't. I'm so happy your here Draco."
"I just had to see you, I don't know why I'm feeling this way, but I just had to come here."
"Oh Draco."
Draco leaned forward and kissed her. It was the same kiss as on the train just less angry. He leaned her back on the couch and kept kissing her. He broke the kiss and just looked in her eyes, "I never thought in a million years that I would have feelings for you." She smiled at him and brought him back down for another kiss.
After a ten-minute make-out session Hermione took Draco on a tour of the house.
"I know it can't possibly be as big as your house, but it's my home."
"It's lovely Hermione. I really have to get back to the Manor though."
"If you must. This has been the best part of my summer so far Draco, thank you."
"Same here Hermione. I hope to see you again." He leaned down and kissed her. He then walked out her front door and flew off under an invisibility cloak.
MMMMMMMMMMM
Hermione sat on her bed still on Cloud Nine the day after Draco left. Her father came in at about nine o'clock.
"Hello dear."
"Hi dad, what's up?"
"I wanted to talk to you, about this boy of yours."
"His not mine yet, father."
"Yes well, tell me about his parents."
"Oh, from what I know, his father is a dreadful person. He's very cruel and evil. He didn't say much of his mother though, all he told me was that she tries to be a good mother. I heard that she is very materialistic, she always wants more from Lucius, Draco's father."
Her father shook his head, "His mother, is her name Narcissa?"
"Yes, how did you know?"
"Oh my child, this is going to be a long, long story."
Hermione looked at him strangely trying to figure out what was wrong with her father. She kept watching him as he continued to speak.
"I once had this friend who was a wizard, he didn't tell me about it till he was 17 and in his last year at Hogwarts. I really didn't learn much about Hogwarts then, but he took me with him to Diagon Alley that year before school. I met Narcissa there, and she was the most wonderful person I had ever met. We hit it off and she went back to my friend's house with me. Well let's just say we went too far for our first day knowing each other. Well a week later she showed up a week later and told me she was pregnant. There was another guy though, Lucius Malfoy, she was with him the week before. She wasn't sure who was the father of her child."
Hermione looked at him wide-eyed, "No..."
"She ended up marrying Lucius, and I married your mother. I don't regret it though. So what I was trying to say is that you cannot see this Draco boy. He could very well be your brother."
