Disclaimer time - I am not J.K. Rowling, nor do I own the characters in her
Harry Potter series. I'm just borrowing them for a little chaos & dissolute
fun & I promise to return them in an only somewhat disheveled state. I know
my posting are becoming more delayed, but I promise to keep writing, albeit
slowly. BTW I hate the title of this chapter, so if a better one occurs to
you, please let me know. Anyway, here is the next chapter . . . enjoy (& of
course please review . . .what can I say, I'm addicted to reviews.
"I still can't believe this Harry!!" Ron exploded as they walked down the hallway. "I mean Draco!?!?! What the hell is she thinking? Ignoring all the miserable things he has done to all of us, the fact that his entire damn family are nothing more then a pack of cowardly Death Eaters, or that he has tried to ruin the life of everyone he's ever met who isn't a Slytherin, he is still fucking Draco!!! Of all the people she has to hang out, she picks Draco!!! What the hell is she thinking?!?!? "
Harry just shrugged, "Your guess is as good as mine. The real question is what are we going to do about it?"
"Kill him," was Ron's immediate response. Harry just turned to look at him before rolling his eyes.
"Seriously, Ron, I'm just as upset as you are, but we need to be realistic here."
"Seriously, Harry, why can't we just kill him?" Harry glared back at him. "Come on, you know as well as I do that he is or will be a Death Eater, sooner or later. We'd be doing the world a favor." Ron continued ranting. "Besides," he added in a more somber tone, "you also know that he is going to end up hurting her." He sighed, "At this moment, I'm almost thinking that she deserves whatever is coming to her, but at the same time, I know that we have to help, whether or not she wants us to."
"Ron that's a terrible thing to say!" But Harry's weak protest sounded pathetic, even to himself. He tuned out Ron for a moment, as he tried to come to grips with how he felt about this whole situation. Intellectually, he realized that Draco was taking advantage of Hermione, although he couldn't since it was for the greater good, since it was for the greater good, she should just understand. After all, isn't that what friends do, understand and forgive each other?
"Look, first we've got to find her and get her to talk to us, which isn't going to be easy, since I think she is a bit angry with us." Harry decided the best way to approach was to try to remain reasonable.
"Uh oh," Ron mumbled, elbowing Harry as he pointed toward the potions room, where they could clearly see Draco, pinning Hermione up against the wall in the otherwise empty class room.
"That son of a bitch!" Harry grabbed his wand and looked grimly over to Ron, who also had his wand in hand, as they stormed into the room only to hear. . .
"Come on Hermione, no one is going to save you now," Draco's voice echoed in the room. Hermione could feel herself trembling as she tried to figure out how she was going to get out of this one. His arms tightly banded around her hers, his body so close she could smell the faintly spicy smell that was uniquely Draco, she felt boneless as her head drifting to his shoulder, when he whispered in her ear, "Just be a good girl and tell me. You know you want to." How did she wind up playing truth or dare with Draco? And how was she going to tell him her favorite sexual fantasy, when he had a starring role in it.
"Ummm, well," her voice wavered as he leaned in further trapping her between the hard wall and the hard, warm planes of his body, while he looked down at her with that sexy half smile on his face, as if he knew exactly what she was going to say.
And then she heard Harry's voice, "Expelliarmus," and she nearly slid down the wall as Draco suddenly flew back away from her and crashed into the desk behind him. Harry marching into the room determined to teach Draco a lesson once and for all, while Ron walked up to Hermione and grabbed her arm, pulling her back up to her feet. Draco was still lying stunned on the floor, cursing up a storm, while Hermione could only shake her head, still somewhat in a daze.
Suddenly Hermione broke free of Ron's grasp and darted in front of Harry, who was still intent on attacking Draco, "What the hell do you think you are doing? I mean have you lost your mind? You could have killed him." Harry now had a confused expression on his face, as he watched her kneel lean down next to Draco.
"B-but-but we were helping you." Harry stuttered out, looking to Ron for help. Ron just shrugged his shoulders, he didn't understand this either.
"Help me?" She cried out in disbelief, "by attacking someone from behind, who didn't do anything. What if he had hit his head on the desk, hmmm? You could have broken his neck. Even if we had gotten a teacher or Madame Pomfrey here, they couldn't fix that. Why did you attack him, when he wasn't doing anything?" She stared up at him for a moment, as his mouth gaped open, before sighing in disgust and turning back to talk to Draco in a voice too quiet for him to even hear.
"Are you ok?" She looked at Draco, her cinnamon eyes darkened with worry.
"Ahh, don't worry about it. I'm fine", his hand reached up to briefly caress her face, before he pushed himself up to his feet, and then he leaned down to pull her up to her feet, as well.
"You know, Potter, it is still considered bad form, not to mention cowardly, to attack someone from behind. Anytime you want to pick a fight with me, you're on, but do me the curtsey of at least attacking me face to face, ok?" Draco said scornfully.
"Fuck you, Malfoy. Maybe you should try picking on someone who can fight back, then by intimidating girls half your size." Harry threw back at him, before focused on Hermione, "Come on Hermione, I don't know what he was saying to you, but we heard him threatening you. It's nothing to be ashamed of, so you don't have to protect him. Just come with us and we'll figure something out so he doesn't bother you anymore."
Hermione looked at him stunned for a moment, before shaking her head wearily. She sat down in the nearest chair and looked back up at him. "Look, Harry, I think you mean well, but I really have no idea what you're talking about. Draco wasn't threatening me, I am in no danger, I am not ashamed, and even if all those things were true, which I assure they are not, I think I could still take care of myself. So what are you talking about?" Her voice sounded tired, even to herself and she just wanted to leave and go to her room, for a very overdue nap. A brief smile slipped across her face, as she closed her eyes to feel Draco standing behind her chair, as if he knew how she felt and began massaging the knots out of her neck and shoulders.
They suddenly opened again, however, when Harry's voice exploded in rage, "GET YOUR HANDS OFF HER!" She looked up to see his normal wan face turn an alarming shade of red and she suddenly rose to her feet, as she securely grabbed her wand.
Both Hermione and Draco suddenly grew still as they closely watched Harry; even Ron gave him a wary look.
"What on earth is going on in here, hmmm?" Hermione slowly released the breath she had unconsciously been holding as she slightly leaned back against Draco's taller frame. Never had she been so glad to hear Prof. Snape's voice.
"Well, I am waiting. Someone had better start explaining this and fast." Snape's eyes grew narrower as he surveyed the unusual expressions on his the faces of his students, ranging from relief, anger to resignation.
