Chapter 5: Don't tell

"Go away!" yelled Hermione through the door

"I can't go away, you know I have to put you on the list." He yelled back.

Hermione opened the door she didn't saw the arrogant little boy from school anymore. He was a handsome grown-up man in a black shirt. Black has always looked good on him.

"I'll give you exactly four minutes." She said. "You can take me off that missing list of yours but ask for total discretion so that nobody except for you, me and the one who will write it down on the list can know that my status has changed."

"Fine, I'll bring it personally."

Draco came inside the house and started to ask the questions for the form he had to fill in.

"Name?" He asked "Full name please."

"You know my name." She said but after a strange look from Draco "Hermione Jean Granger."

"Date of birth?"

"September 19th 1979"

"Married?"

"No."

"Any muggles that acknowledge the fact that you are a witch."

"Not until you start talking louder ..." she said pointing upstairs to Amy's room.

"Missing from?"

"May 1998."

"Until?"

"Today." She said " April 6th 2000."

"Found in ...?"

"Little Grey Valley"

"That's it. I'll bring these to London." He said with the form in his hand

"You're leaving then?" She asked.

"No, I think I'm going to stay a few days."

Draco apparated to London and after ten minutes he was back.

On the same moment in George's apartment

"Why were you looking around in my room?" Ginny asked

"I was looking for you then I saw a few envelopes on your desk all addressed to Hermione Granger." Yelled Ron back.

"She didn't want you to know." Said Ginny who was now hiding behind George.

"And how long did you know?" he asked George. "Tell me how long."

"About a week" George said "Can you please calm down."

A grey owl flew inside the window Ron took the message from its beak and started reading it.

"It's a good thing I didn't listen to you two, I asked a friend of mine at the ministry to keep an eye on the list." He said while still reading. "Here i have the location.

"Ron, don't you dare." Ginny yelled

But it was too late Ron had already disapparated to Little Grey Valley, Ginny turned around and noticed that George had disapparated alongside Ron.

Suddenly they stood in front of a small house with two names on the letterbox

Amy Stuart & Hermione Johnson.

"You can't go in there, she doesn't want you there." George said before Ron knocked on the door.

Hermione opened the door and after one look she tried to close it again, she was too late Ron had already entered followed by George: "I tried to stop him, Honestly."

"OUT!" she yelled at Ron.

"Not before you tell me why you left us all." He said while trying to threaten her with his wand .

Even then Ron hadn't suspected that both Draco and George would try to defend Hermione. The result Draco was hit with a stinging spell fired by Ron, George was hanging with one ankle in the air because he was hit by a badly performed levicorpus spell by Draco that had missed Ron and Ron was stunned by George.

Out of reaction to the spell fire Hermione had also taken out her wand and had casted a protection charm to herself.

"What is going on here?" said Amy after seeing the last part of the little fight. "W-why is he unconscious and he hanging in the air and who are they."

"... Amy I'm really sorry for what I'm going to do." Said Hermione and pointed her wand at Amy "Oblivate!"

While Hermione erased Amy's memory Draco had performed counter curses on Ron and George. Because the process was taking so long everybody suspected that Hermione wasn't just erasing Amy's memory but she was changing it.

"Where am I this is not my house." Amy said.

"ehm I found you on the side of the road you had fainted." Hermione said quickly.

"I've a headache." Amy said "Maybe should go home thank you for the care." Eventually Amy left like she didn't know she lived in that house.

"What did you do to her?" Draco asked.

"I changed her memory, she thinks she lives with her brother in Scotland." Hermione said with the tears in her eyes. "You wouldn't know how hard it is to send a friend away when they don't even know it."

"I'll take all her stuff and place her brother under a charm as well." Hermione said and went upstairs, after a twenty minutes Ron, George and Draco heard a loud crack coming from upstairs. So they decided to wait for her until she returned.

"Why are you here?" asked Ron to Draco.

"I work for the ministry, I have to complete a part of the list." Draco answered. "Why are you two here?"

"Don't ask me." George said. "I only tried to stop him from coming." While pointing towards Ron.

"I have been searching for her since the day she went missing."

Another loud crack came from the kitchen and a few seconds later Hermione came into the room. There were tears rolling over her cheeks. Then she looked at the boys who all three started asking questions on the same time.

"Why did you leave? Couldn't you let me know where you were?" asked Ron

"Everybody knew you were in love with me. Wasn't it? I liked you too but something changed it, and you were still so attracted to me."

"Then why did you leave? Who made you leave."

"It was too much for me to handle. And I can't tell you who made me leave you would just attack him to get me for yourself, even after all these years."

Ron thought of it, and it was true what she said he would do everything to get Hermione. Even kill someone.

A/N: Here is the new Chapter. And if people ask why George is even in this story because he is totally unnecessary, he is my favourite character(together with Fred if he hadn't died).

And another thing. From now on I'm going to add a sneak peek for the next chapter (It's only two lines long)

"George can I trust you?" Draco said "I know she does."

"Sure."

So I hope you enjoyed and please review
