Chapter 10

"Father, how....inconvenient" said Draco, a cold, polite smile fixed on his face. "Son. And who is this....young lady?"asked Lucius giving Hermione a calculating look. "I'm Hermione Granger, and I was just leaving" she replied. "Oh, really? That's funny, from over here, it looked like you were kissing my son" said Lucius with a disgusted look on his face. "Father, that's enough. Mione, you don't have to go anywhere, or be embarrassed, you weren't doing anything wrong" said Draco. "Well, you're right on one account, anyway. I didn't do anything wrong, because I didn't do anything at all! You kissed me! Now, if you'll excuse me, I have work to do" said Hermione, giving Draco a look as if to say "we'll talk about this later" as she went up to her room.

"Two questions father: One, how did you get in here, and two, what are you doing here?"asked Draco, his voice filled with suppressed anger. "To answer the first, the door was open a crack, so I didn't see the need to knock, and two, I didn't know I needed a reason to come visit my son" replied Lucius, a falsely innocent smile on his face. "Quite frankly, father, you do need a reason to come see me. You never acknowledge me unless you need something from me" answered Draco, his grey eyes filled with dislike ans distrust.

"I'm hurt, son, that you would even think such a thing. But, since you brought it up, I do need to ask a favor. Really, I wasn't going to say anything, but since your accusing me, I might as well commit the crime, right?" asked Lucius. "I knew it! What is it this time?"asked Draco, wariness evident in his tone. "Nothing much. I don't think you could handle anything more than this. I need the times and locations of Potters classes, and if you can manage, the location and password to Gryffandor common room. Secondly, I need you to stop disgracing yourself with that little mudblood Granger" said Lucius, hoping, daring Draco to disobey him.

He wasn't to be disappointed. "You WHAT?? I refuse! I'm tired of you using me like this! You only remember you have a son when it's convenient for you! Remember over the summer, when you told me that I would have to pick sides? Well, I just did! From this day on, I want no further contact with you! Understand? Leave me alone!" shouted Draco, his eyes alight with anger.

"You WILL regret this, boy! Don't think you can get rid of me that easily!" threatened Lucius. "I do believe I told you to get out" said Draco, in a disconcerted tone. "Goodbye Lucius, hope to not see you soon" said Draco, ,making sure he got his message across. "Au Revoir, Draco, not goodbye" replied Lucius, as he swept past Draco and out the door. "Damn, that felt good" said Draco as a grin spread across his face.
