Hermione was shaking under the covers as the door slowly creaked open. She didn't hear any footsteps. It seemed as though they were watching her.

"Hermione." a voice came from the person. Hermione didn't reply though. She was too scared. The figure closed the door and walked toward her bed until she felt breathing against her face. Hermione squeezed her eyes tight so she wouldn't have to witness him kissing her, without her permission. She knew it was him.

A hand pulled some hair away from her face and she opened her eyes.

"Hi Hermione." Malfoy was there, but his lips didn't move at all. He was using telepathy.

"Why are you here Malfoy? What is it now?" she thought back, still starring in his grey blue eyes. The shine from the moon seemed to aluminate the room.

"I miss your touch Mione." he reached under the covers and took her hand out, rubbing it against his cheek. He kissed her hand.

"Stop Malfoy. It's too late for this. Haven't you done enough damage earlier?" Malfoy was about to reply when he heard Pansy walking through the halls.

"That woman. I have to go." He got up, closed the door and left.

Hermione came downstairs the next morning to hear Malfoy and Pansy arguing in their pajamas

"Why can't you just stay asleep!"

"I can't sleep when you're not in the bed!"

"Why not!"

"Just knowing that bimbo's in here, that's why." Pansy folded her arms.

"That's it. I'm tired of you calling me a bimbo! It's not my fault your husband doesn't want you!"

"HE DOES SO WANT ME!" Pansy looked at Malfoy, Malfoy looked at Hermione, and Hermione looked back at Pansy.

"He doesn't want you, he never wanted you, and he never will want you." Hermione stated calmly. She couldn't even understand why she was saying this. Pansy gasped and broke into tears. She ran out of the kitchen and to the staircase.

"I'M LEAVING! I NEED A VACATION." Pansy whined.

"NO! You can't leave! My father said if you leave me I'll lose all of my money!" Draco yelled to her.

"WELL TOO BAD!"

Hermione's arms were crossed. How dare Pansy call me a bimbo. TWICE!

"Oh, but Pansy, if I lose all my money, so do you."

"Um...well I did mention that I was just going on vacation right?" Pansy nervously reminded.

"That's what I thought. Now get upstairs and start packing." and away Pansy went.

"Do you have to control everyone?" Hermione asked sarcastically.

"Almost lost control for a while."

"Well, I guess I'll start cleaning now."

Malfoy stood in front of her and took her hands. She looked at him confused as his eyes seemed to melt into warmness. He brought her into a hug and she cried. She didn't understand why though. Then she felt his hands grasp at her ass tightly and she tried to pull away. Her sobbing was muffled by his hungry kiss, which made more tears trickle down Hermione's cheeks.

"You're beautiful."

"Can I go out for a while?" Hermione's eyes were red from the tears, she didn't know how long she'd been crying.

"Where are you going?"

"I don't know." she pulled away from him.

"Go. You know your rules, Mione."

"Wow, poor Mione. She seems so depressed." Ron commented to Ginny.

"I mean, look at her. Why can't she just come back home?" they both looked at Hermione at the coffee counter who was ordering 3 plain black coffees. All for herself, even though she hated black coffee, but she wasn't thinking straight and wanted to punish herself for even getting in this situation. Hermione plopped down next to Ron and took a sip of her coffee.

"AH! THIS IS DISGUSTING!" the whole café looked up at her. She put her head down on the table.

"Ok, that's it. Hermione, what's wrong?" Ron asked, he took her hand and Ginny looked surprised that after Ron's 3 months of never shutting up about her, he finally touched her.

"Look Ron, nothing's wrong."

"Ron, maybe you should leave this to me." Ginny replied.

"No. I need to do this Ginny." Ron got up and reached for Hermione's hand. When he did, she flinched and that angered Ron. He knew something happened to her. He kneeled down to her.

"Hermione, we need to talk. I know something that'll make everything better." she got up and he led her to the hallway with the bathrooms and took both her hands. This made her think of Malfoy.

"Mione, what's wrong? What's really going on at your job?" Ron looked at her hair, but didn't say anything about it.

"Ron, it's the man I work for. He's..."

"I lo-" Ron was interrupted by the man who'd just come in.

"Hermione, it's time to come home." Malfoy's voice was stern.

"Take your hands off of her!" Ron yelled, Malfoy's hands were on Hermione's shoulders.

"I'm sorry Ron, I should've told you sooner. Ginny knew." Hermione replied back as she was being escorted out by Malfoy. Hermione was sitting in the passenger seat. Malfoy blew the horn.

"Get out of the way weasel!" He yelled.

"NO! Get out of the car Hermione!" Ron yelled back. Ginny watched everything from the café window, along with several other strangers.

Malfoy became frustrated and got out of the car. He took a punch at Ron, right in the nose. Blood began to drip, and Hermione couldn't believe her eyes.

"NO!" she yelled, but she didn't want to get out of the car to risk getting hurt. Ron got back up and punched Malfoy in the stomach and an uppercut to his chin. Malfoy fell back to the ground, it became dark and the rain came down. Ron got on top of him and took out a knife, this was it. Hermione had to put a stop to it, Ginny was in too much of a shock to move.

She jumped out of the car and ran over to them. She took off her garter that Malfoy gave to her to wear when it was, as his words "their quality time" and put it around Ron's neck. She pulled back and Ron came with it, dropping the knife. Malfoy got up and began stomping Ron.

"STOP IT! BOTH OF YOU!" Hermione punched Malfoy. He looked hurt, emotionally. Malfoy began to walk back to the car.

"If you want to keep your job, get in the FUCKIN' car." Malfoy warned as he got back in.

"I can't." Hermione fell to her knees. She couldn't just leave Ron on the ground, but she'd never get money again.

"GET IN THE CAR HERMIONE!"

"Hermione, if you get in that car, I'll kill myself." Ron put the knife up to his neck.

"NO! Ron, stop it!" she tried to get the knife.

"Then tell...him..you wont go!" Ron said through gritted teeth. Hermione was so stressed, with the horn honking, and the site of Ron's bloody nose with his knife held to his neck.

Hermione blacked out. Malfoy drove off. All Hermione could think about was where was her money coming from now.

A/n: OH! The next chapter will be good. I had to distance the relationship between Hermione and Malfoy for a little while though cuz i thought it was going a little too fast.
