Chapter 14
Aftermath
When the order had gone and collected the unconscious bodies of Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy they had been at first unsure of what to do with them.
Could Draco Malfoy be trusted? This question had caused the order much grief though it was Dumbledore who had had the final decision. Harry still remembered Dumbledore's words from last week.
"Whatever these two did it was enough to kill every single Death Eater there so if Draco Malfoy had of been a Death Eater, then wouldn't he have been killed as well along with them?" Dumbledore had said to them all after they had spent an hour or more squabbling over what to do with the unconscious man.
"I know his past causes us to think otherwise but I do trust your judgement Hermione" Harry whispered to her as he sat in a chair by Hermione's bedside.
It was a week after the final showdown had occurred and neither had awoken from their coma like slumber, causing the members of the Order to begin to loose faith in their recovery.
Harry looked over at Hermione's sleeping figure and tried to piece together how his best friend could have ended up with their enemy from Hogwarts.
"It just doesn't seem like the Hermione I know…" he mumbled to himself, before turning in the chair to find a more comfortable position.
As Harry began to fall asleep he heard Hermione beginning to stir causing him to suddenly sit up to attention and peer over at Hermione's stirring form.
"Hermione…" he whispered to no one in particular, "Hermione are you awake?"
When he heard no reply he felt his heart sink into the pit of his stomach, until he heard a weak reply.
"Harry…"
On hearing this Harry quickly jumped to his feet and rushed to Hermione taking his hand in hers.
"Oh Hermione you are ok, thank Merlin." Harry began to babble "I don't know what I would have done if I had of lost both you and Ron…" he continued on, though he stopped when he saw the faint smile on Hermione's face disappear with the mention of Ron's name.
"Hermione I know it's hard but together we can get over his death," Harry said more to remind himself than Hermione.
"no Harry that's not it," Hermione whispered hoarsely back, "it's Ron" she said before taking a deep breath "he was working against us for Merlin knows how long…" on seeing Harry's face at the mention of Ron's betrayal Hermione almost stopped, the she realised he needed to know the whole truth.
"Oh Harry," she began again "he almost killed me during the final battle, if it weren't for Draco I wouldn't be here and you may not have either." She said as tears began to form in the corners of here eyes.
On hearing this she saw Harry suddenly draw back from her.
"No Hermione your wrong Ron would have never done that to me. Maybe it is you who is the traitor going off with Malfoy disappearing for over two years and suddenly appearing on the day of the final battle, just a little suspicious if you ask me" Harry hissed at Hermione causing the tears that Hermione had tried to hold come spilling out.
"Harry why are you saying this?" Hermione asked him through her tears.
"No don't try and fool me with your tears Hermione I can see right through them." Harry hissed at her viciously before walking towards the door.
"forget it Hermione I though you were still the girl I knew but now I see what you really are one of Malfoy's little whores, I thought you were better Hermione I really did." He spat and left the room and inside Hermione a bit of him also left her heart.

Malfoy groaned as he opened his eyes very slowly to see the shadow of someone moving though the room that he was in.
"Who's there?" he croaked.
"Oh my gosh you're awake." The figure cried as they rushed over to Draco's bedside.
Once they arrived Draco realised who it was, the female Weasley.
'What was her name?' Draco thought.
"Ginny…" he mumbled.
"Yes, what is it Malfoy?" she replied.
Draco did not know what he wanted to know then one question came to mind and he knew it was the only thing that he cared for.
"Where is Hermione?" he croaked, before looking up and seeing Ginny's beaming face.
"She alright Malfoy." She whispered in reply before Draco slipped back into slumber, leaving Ginny standing over him smiling to herself.
