Chapter 13: Secrets Revealed
Hermione gingerly sat on the swing, wiping her tears, as she saw Draco leave the garden. Trembling, she looked down at the ground, and swung around gently, as she thought of what had just happened.
He's broken up with me. He's broken up with me. Draco's left me. He's left me.
And the tears started flowing once again.
"Hermione? You alright?" Hermione woke up with a start, and looked around to see Ginny staring at her worriedly. "What time is it?" Hermione murmured, rubbing her eyes.
"It's nine, Hermione. But there's no class today, remember? It's Sunday."
Hermione nodded, as yesterday's events came to her mind. Draco had dumped her. Tears flooded her eyes again, and she curled up in her bed, pulling the blanket to cover herself. Ginny gently prodded Hermione.
"Hermione? You okay? What's wrong?"
"Nothing, Gin. Shouldn't you be going for breakfast?" Hermione asked, her voice trembling.
Ginny sat by the side of Hermione's bed, patting Hermione gently.
"I'm not going if you're not going, Herm."
Hermione turned away. "Well, I'm not hungry. "
"Then I'm not going. And I'm not leaving you here, until you tell me what happened."
"I thought you were going to give me my own privacy?"
"Not when you're in such a sad state, Hermione. And you were gone yesterday night as well. I was awake the whole time, and when you came back, you were crying-very badly. What happened, Hermione?"
Tears started trickling down Hermione's cheeks, and she buried her face in her pillow. "Noth-Nothing's wrong, Gin. Leave me alo-alone, please."
"No, Hermione, I won't. I won't leave you just like that. I'm your best friend, Hermione. Come on! What's going on?"
"Nothing!" Hermione screamed. "Nothing's going on! Leave me alone!" she sobbed loudly, and she collapsed onto her bead, crying bitterly.
Ginny stroked her hair gently. "Ssh, it's okay, it's okay," she whispered soothingly and comfortingly. "What happened?"
"We- we broke up."
"Broke up? You and who?"
"Me-me and Dr-Draco."
Ginny gasped in horror, as her eyes widened.
"Y-You and Draco?"
Hermione nodded.
"And Ginny, don't yell at me for going out with him because I'm not in the mood to hear it. I-I loved him! And now, it's over!"
"Why didn't you tell us?"
Hermione sat up in her bed. "Tell you guys? Hello? He's your arch nemesis. You guys would just go against me!"
Ginny sighed, and walked over to Hermione, hugging her, as Hermione buried her face in Ginny's shoulder, crying.
"Oh, Hermione! Don't be so daft. Of course, we all hate him, but if you're in love with him, we'll be fine with it! Hermione, you're our best friend. We want you to be happy, and if that means dating Draco, so be it! It's perfectly fine with us, we won't mind, just as long as he doesn't hurt you. How long has this been going on?"
"We've been in a relationship for a month and a few days. Draco couldn't take it because we never had any time together, and he didn't like that. Oh, Ginny. What do I do now?" Hermione started crying softly again.
"Hermione, Draco was your date for the ball, right?"
Hermione nodded. "I didn't want anybody to know about our relationship, especially you guys. He decided that we would leave shortly before midnight, and that we would climb that wall, and go to the garden, and have some time to ourselves. But that never happened."
"Me, Ron, and Harry disturbed you guys, didn't we?"
Hermione nodded again. "He was over the wall, and he was helping me up when the boys snatched me. So, he quickly jumped over, and he waited for me to come. But I never did. He got angry."
"I don't blame him. We certainly ruined your relationship."
"No. It's not th-that. He felt that I should have told you guys about us, and he thought that you guys would accept it. But I didn't want to. I was frightened, and I just left him there. Oh, Ginny. I don't want to break up with him. He's been wonderful to me. What do I do, Ginny? What do I do?"
Ginny hugged Hermione gently. "Don't worry, Hermione. I will take care of this. I will."
Draco sighed softly, as he stared at his food. He had been unable to sleep the whole night, and he was up thinking about Hermione, and what he had done to her. His heart felt heavy, and he pushed his plate away, his face buried in his hands.
He got up, and was on his way to the Slytherin dormitory, when, all of a sudden, somebody pulled him behind a pillar. He yelped, and when he saw who had pulled him, he gasped.
"What are you doing here?"
Hope you liked the cliff-hanger, although I think you guys know who the person is. Tell me your answer via reviews, and I would like to get 100+ reviews, so please REVIEW! Thanks. :)
