I know I am like the worst person in the world it has taken me forever to write this chapter. I have been having a rough time with it and it still is not to my liking but I wanted to get something out. I haven't sent it to my beta yet so the grammar is probably horrible but as soon as I send it and she gets done I will repost it.

The Assignment
Hermione groaned as she sat up in her bed. Her whole body was sore from the night before.
She was so not ready for classes.
Before she could stand up she heard Ginny giggle.
"Have a rough night Mione? I heard you sneak in late last night. Where were you?"
Hermione felt her face flush a bright red.
"I went to take a bath. I was having a hard time sleeping."
Ginny snorted "And when you got back you slept like a baby looks like you found a way to release some of that stress."
Hermione said nothing, Ginny didn't have to know.
Ginny giggled "Oh come on Mione, I knew you wouldn't be able to hold out much longer."
She groaned and flung herself back on the bed.
"But he is our enemy Ginny. His father is a Death Eater. He is a Death Eater in training and even knowing that I can't keep my hands off of him."
Ginny walked over to the bed and pulled Hermione back up.
"Look Hermione like I've said before, we are about to be in a war. One that none of us are truly ready for. We need to have some fun, I don't blame you for what you are doing. You need to blow off some steam. Look I'm not saying to go around and flaunt this but maybe you are just as good for him as he is for you."
Hermione sighed.
"Thanks Gin. I'll see you downstairs."
Draco arrived early to breakfast and sat down next to Blaise whom at the moment was the only person at the table.
He nodded and began to eat everything he could get his hands on.
Blaise smirked at his best friend.
"So you got in late last night, and when you did you slept like a baby. I guess you got tired of sitting around just fantasizing about her and decided to go take what you wanted."
Draco snorted "I don't know what you're talking about Zabini. She is nothing but a filthy Mudblood."
Blaise just snickered. "Yeah well I know for a fact that the filthy little Mudblood has been messing with your dreams and interrupting your sleep for weeks now. You know you really should think about putting up a silencing charm when you sleep."
Draco groaned and laid his head on the table.
Draco felt Blaise pat his shoulder.
"Don't worry mate I would never think of telling anyone. I know what kind of trouble that would put you in if the Dark Lord ever found out."
Draco sat up and cleared his throat.
"Thanks mate. I owe you one."
Blaisechuckled "Not a problem. Just promise me you will do this a little more often, when you don't sleep I don't….Gets annoying."
Draco rolled his eyes and went back to his breakfast.
Hermione walked into the great hall and went straight to her usual seat and began to eat.
She smiled brightly at Ron and Harry.
"Good morning boys, how was your night?"
Ron looked up surprised. Hermione really hadn't spoken to them in the last few weeks.
"Good. Yours?"
Hermione grabbed a piece of bacon from the plate in front of her.
"Wonderful, actually got some great sleep last night."
Ron and Harry both watched their best friend as she ate her breakfast.
For the last couple of weeks she had seemed off but today she seemed well….she seemed to be the normal old Hermione.
After a few moments of laughter and catching up a scared first year walked up to the trio and cleared his throat.
"Hermione Granger?"
Hermione smiled brightly at the scared kid.
"That's me."
The first year handed her a sealed letter.
"This is from Professor Snape."
Hermione nodded and took the letter opening it and reading it quickly before destroying it.
Ron and Harry looked at her confused as she began to gather her things.
"I have to go meet Professor Snape before class. It's about my last essay. I will see you two in class and don't be late. We have potions first."
Both boys rolled their eyes but watched their friend suspiciously.
Hermione walked into the potion masters classroom and looked around.
The letter had told her to meet him immediately here.
She swallowed nervously. She had no idea what he was going to do after the scene from the night before.
Finally when she didn't see the Professor she walked to the door to his private quarters and knocked.
She heard a gruff "Enter."When she entered she was greeted by the Professor whom was behind his desk with a quill and a jar of red ink grading papers.
He looked up and nodded for her to sit down.
Hermione did as she was told and waited while the Professor put away the papers and summoned a couple of vials from the shelf behind him and handed them to her one at a time.
"I want you to take these Miss Granger."
Hermione looked at the potions suspiciously. He must have been out of his mind to think she would willingly take a potion that he gave her.
He rolled his eyes at her skepticism.
"Miss Granger one is sort of like the morning after pill that muggles have. We normally administer this potion to witches whom have been raped. It prevents a pregnancy if no contraceptive spell or potion was used."
Hermione felt her face flush red.
"The other is a contraceptive potion that works from month to month. If I know my Godson at all, which I know him quite well, I know that he was more than likely not thinking of putting on a contraceptive spell before you two…..well you know what you did. The other is for any future copulating you two do."
Hermione felt her face turn an even brighter red, if he said anymore she may just burst with embarrassment. But he was right neither times did either of them put on a contraceptive spell. At the thought Hermione gave a sharp intake of breath.
The Potions master quirked an eyebrow at her "Miss Granger this is extremely important. Is this the first time you and Draco have been together?"
Hermione looked down but shook her head no.
"It was about a month ago."
The Professor rolled his eyes. "And I take it by the sharp intake of breath that you didn't use a contraceptive spell or potion then either."
Hermione shook her head no and felt tears begin to prick at her eyes more from embarrassment than anything.
Professor stood and motioned for her to do the same.
He then took out his wand and pointed it at her stomach "Miss Granger I need you to lift your shirt and reveal your stomach.
Hermione stammered "What? Why Professor?"
Professor Snape rolled his eyes.
"I am checking to make sure you are not already with child."
She lifted her shirt nervously and watched as the Professor pointed his wand to her stomach saying an incantation.
She watched as her stomach tingled and turned a bright red color.
Professor let a breath.
"Good it's negative. But I must tell you Miss Granger that was just luck."
Hermione nodded, she grabbed the morning after potion and downed it. Then took the vial containing the month to month contraceptive potion in it and handed it back to Professor Snape.
She couldn't do this. No matter what Malfoy said. No matter what Ginny said, she couldn't take this chance anymore. What if that test would have come back positive? Was all of this really worth it? Was she more than just a piece of ass to Malfoy anyway?
"Here. Professor I don't plan on this happening again. I can't do this anymore."
She then turned to leave but before she could Snape stopped her.
"Wait….Miss Granger stay for a moment I need to discuss something with you."
Hermione turned around and was shocked at the look of sincerity that was on her potion's master face.
Before they could begin talking Professor Dumbledore stepped through the floo.
"Severus, I hope I am not too late."
The Potion Master bowed his head at the Headmaster.
"No actually I was just beginning to explain things to Miss Granger here."
At this point Hermione was extremely confused.
"You told Professor Dumbledore about Draco and me?"
Professor Snape snickered.
"I didn't have to, he already knew."
Hermione gave him a look of understanding, the old man seemed to know everything.
The Headmaster sat down and motioned for Professor Snape to begin.
"This is the most unorthodox thing I will probably ever say to a student but I want you to think about continue your relationship with Draco."
Hermione looked at him quizzically "I don't understand Professor….I thought you would be happy that your Godson would no longer be sullying himself with a Mudblood like me."
The Professor snorted "Miss Granger you know that I am a member of the Order and therefore do not share in those thoughts."
Hermione slumped her shoulders and sat down. She knew that it was just hard to think of him like that with the act he put on for everyone else.
"And you agree with this Headmaster?"
Dumbledore smiled at Hermione.
"I think this relationship would be good for Mr. Malfoy."
"Professor I just don't understand why…This relationship between Draco and I can only end in disaster. I am nothing but a conquest for him. He will always feel I am lower than him, that I am a Mudblood. I don't want to become attached Professor….I can't handle that, not with this war coming…I can't take the chance of Harry or Ron finding out. This would kill them. I am betraying them by being with him."
Dumbledore gave Hermione a weak smile.
"Miss Granger I believe that you are exactly what Mr. Malfoy needs to be brought to our side."
Hermione sucked in a breath.
"Are you trying to say that you want to use me as bait? I am not a piece of meat."
Professor Snape sighed.
"Miss Granger you don't understand my Godson is just confused. He has only been exposed to hatred his whole life. If the Dark Lord found out he is sleeping with you he will kill Draco no questions asked. He apparently feels you are worth the risk. You have to mean something to him. Miss Granger we need you.
He knows nothing of my involvement with the Order. I plan to tell him. You may just be what we need to persuade him to join us. I have information that he will be brought in to take the mark very soon. You have to understand if he were to not accept the Dark Mark he will be disowned and marked as a blood traitor. Not only he will be leaving everything he has ever known behind, but he will be fighting for his life. He will have to go into hiding. Before I found out about the two of you I had no hope of persuading him to do this. He had nothing to leave that life behind before. Now he does."
Hermione groaned and closed her eyes.
Could she do this? Persuade Draco to come to the light. Could she become the one thing that Draco would leave his whole life behind for?
She didn't know but she couldn't say no to her Professors. She was Hermione Granger after all and they had just given her an assignment.
She stood and walked back to the desk taking the contraceptive potion and downing it.
"Well I guess I need to get to work then Professors."
After leaving the Professor's office she decided to just take her normal seat and wait for class to begin.
Hermione smiled at Ron and Harry who came and sat next to her. Each boy sat on either side of her. Ron casually put his arm around her shoulder.
"So you survived, that's a good thing. I don't think I could find someone else to do all my homework this far into the year."
He then groaned as Hermione elbowed him in the gut laughing.
"Shut it Ronald."
Hermione watched as the boys laughed and joked. A sharp pang of quilt went through her. She was betraying them. She was supposed to be the third of the golden trio and she was sneaking around behind their backs.
Professor Snape then chose that moment to appear in the room with his usual dramatics.
"Everyone stand. I have been informed by the Headmaster that due to his new crack pot idea of House Unity I am to assign a new seating chart with member's of another house."
With a flick of his wand the new chart appeared on the board.
Hermione groaned when she saw her name. She glared at her Professor who just smirked at her and turned back to his desk.
She of course had been placed with Draco. It was one of the tables for just two people and it happened to be in the back of the room. Ron and Harry had both been placed in the very front on the opposite side of the room where they would not be able to see anything going on with Hermione or Draco.
Harry patted her shoulder with sympathy "Sorry old girl. Just give us the sign and we will hex him into next week you know that."
Hermione nodded and gathered her things going to her new seat.
She felt herself blush as Draco smirked at her. All she wanted to do was wipe that smirk off of his face.
"Malfoy."
"Granger."
They both sat as the Professor began his lesson. A few minutes in Draco leaned in.
"So why were you here speaking with Snape for so long before the lesson?"
Hermione cleared her throat and tried to stay focused on what the Professor had to say.
After not answer for a moment Draco placed his hand on Hermione's leg and began to slide it up.
"Look Granger I want an answer and I will get it. The hard or the easy way."
Hermione sucked in a breath as Draco's finger grazed the edge of her panties.
Draco quickly put up a silencing spell.
"Come one Granger. Tell me…"
Hermione wiggled in her seat, but cleared her throat.
"He called me into his office this morning to give me a morning after potion, and a contraceptive potion to take for this month."
She felt Draco's hand tense and turned to look at him as he removed it.
"He asked me if that was the first time that you and I had been together, I told him about the first time. He then decided to perform a pregnancy charm on me. Don't worry it was negative but that was just luck Malfoy if we continue this we have to be more careful."
She watched as Draco's face seemed to pale even more than its usual shade of white.
"Your right Granger. I should have been more careful, next time we will be more careful."
She was relieved that the news did not deter him the way it almost had her. She was even more relieved when Draco did not try anything else for the rest of the class.
When she went to pack up her belongings at the end of the class Draco picked up her book slipping a note into it and handing it to her.
Hermione nodded and left the classroom relieved that the next class with him was Herbology where they would not have a seating chart.
She read the letter as soon as she got back to her room making sure no one was there first, her heart began to flutter when she read the words.
Meet me in the Room Of Requirements at 10 tonight
She took in a deep breath, she could do this. It was only an assignment. Her first real assignment from the Order, and she got to have a little bit of fun while she was at it.
Hermione groaned when she realized that Ron and Harry were still awake discussing their homework at 10:00 p.m when she needed to be in the Room Of Requirements. She did the only thing she could. She asked Ginny for help.
Ginny of course complied, excited that Hermione was going to see Draco again, she went to the common room and distracted the boys so that Hermione could sneak out.
Hermione ran as fast as she could without being caught to the RoR. She stopped and smoothed her hair and took a few deep breathes before walking in front of the wall three times.
She sighed before opening the door. She was late and he wasn't going to be happy.
When she entered the room it was dimly lit. She walked further into the room only to see Draco sitting on a couch in front of a fireplace drinking firewhiskey.
She cleared her throat and he stood turning to her. Hermione did her best to calm her nerves. He looked angry.
"Where the hell have you been Granger? You are 20 minutes late."
Hermione sighed "I'm sorry Malfoy. Ron and Harry were in the common room and I was trying to sneak out."
Draco downed the rest of his drink and walked to her grabbing her roughly pulling her to him.
She looked into his eye, he had had too much to drink .She tried pulling away but he was having none of it and pulled her back.
"Where are you going Granger? I thought we had a deal you come to me when I need you."
Hermione looked up at him.
"You've had too much to drink Malfoy. Let me go."
Draco pulled her even closer.
"Please Granger…..I just….I need you."
Hermione sucked in a breath when Draco began to kiss her neck.
This was her assignment right? He truly looked like he needed her so she gave in why not have a little fun and bring Draco to the light side.
