CHAPTER 4 Never Seen Before
I do not own Harry Potteror any of the characters. (I just wish I did) :D
I just wanted to tell you all that in this chapter there is a small talk about sex.
It had been a week since Draco and Hermione had gone to lunch together.
Everything was going surprisingly well for the pair of them. Hermione still didn't remember anything but Draco was always there for her to answer any question she had.
Draco hadn't gone to work from the day he had found out that Hermione didn't remember anything. Hermione couldn't believe how much Draco had changed over the years.
Hermione was sitting in the living room of Harry and Pansy's big pink house. As Hermione sat on the big cream soft softer she started to think to herself I wonder why Harry didn't end up with Ginny.
Hermione's thought were disturbed by the sound of the doorbell. Hermione felt excitement rush through her body as she slowly rose from her seat.
Draco was sitting next to Hermione on the softer and was watching her every move. Draco realised that as soon as the doorbell rang Hermione's fists clenched up in to a tight ball. "Hermione you ok?" Hermione turned around slowly and answered "Yer I'm fine I'm just a bit excited about seeing him, the last time I saw him we were datin-." Hermione stopped mid sentence when she saw the expression on Draco's face when she mentioned her dating Ron. "And now his married to Luna and they've got a two year old son, Draco."
Draco slowly nodded his head "I know Hermione but you know that everything's different now."
After a few second's Ron walked in with a little boy in his arms and Luna by his side looking much more different than when she was in Hogwarts. When Ron spotted Hermione he slowly put his son Henry on the floor and walked up to Hermione. He put his long arms around Hermione and hugged her tightly. Hermione stood there for a second and then moved her arms up and hugged Ron back. When Ron moved back Hermione found herself in the arms of Luna Lovegood. Luna hugged Hermione for a few seconds like always. Luna turned around and sat on the couch next to her husband. When she sat down Ron snaked his arm around her shoulders. Before Hermione sat down she felt two little arms around her legs. When she looked down she saw a little boy with dark ginger hair and lovely brown eyes. "Hello aunt Hermione." Henry was smiling up at Hermione. Hermione didn't know what to say "Er, hello." Henry looked a bit disappointed from the reaction he was getting. He slowly moved away from Hermione with a sad look on his face and seated himself on his mother's lap. Hermione looked at the little boy and then turned around and returned to her seat next to Draco.
Draco watched Hermione as she looked at the little boy shocked like it was the first time she had seen a child.
Harry knew that it was going to be awkward but he never thought it was going to be THİS awkward. He looked at his wife with pleading eyes. Pansy looked at her husband and understood how awkward this must be for him.
After a few minutes of silence Pansy finally broke the silence "So does anybody want some tea?" Pansy rose from her seat and made her way to the kitchen but was stopped when Hermione said "I'll come and help you." Hermione got up from her seat and walked with Pansy to the Kitchen. Pansy put the kettle on and leaned back towards to sink and studied Hermione for a few minutes and asked "So Hermione how are you holding up with all of these new changes in your life?" Hermione didn't like Pansy at all at Hogwarts but these couple of weeks she had really been a lot of help. Pansy came around to Malfoy Manor nearly every day and just chatted with Hermione about nothing. "I guess I'm ok, well I was ok."
"What do you mean?" Pansy asked with a confused look on her face.
"I mean I don't know how to explain this but it was really strange seeing Ron with his family. You know the last time I saw him he was my boyfriend."
"Wow Hermione, I know this must be hard for you, but you and Ron had broken up at the end of your seventh year."
Hermione stood silent for a second taking in the information that Pansy had just given her. "Why did we break up?"
"You don't remember do you?"
Hermione nodded her head meaning she didn't remember anything.
"Well you see Hermione your relationship with Ron wasn't really a fairly tale relationship I mean you two keep fighting all the time and upsetting each other. So you decided that it was the right thing to break up. When you broke up you were upset so you spent most of your time in the library. The war had changed everybody and as you can see it has changed Draco to most. One day he saw you crying in the library and came to talk to you and see what was wrong. You were so upset you actually talked to him. So from that day on everyday you would meet up with Draco in the library and talk about anything." Pansy explained.
"Is that how I ended up with Draco?" Hermione was surprised by the things she had heard.
"Yep that is how you ended up married to Draco Malfoy my dear." Said Pansy with a laugh as she turned around to make the teas.
Hermione thought about Draco for a minute and a small smile crept up on her face. Hermione was just standing in the kitchen smiling to herself like a crazy person when she noticed Pansy trying to pick up the tray of teas but having trouble because of her big pregnant belly. Hermione stepped in front of Pansy and picked up the heavy tray "It's ok Pansy I got it." Pansy smiled as watched Hermione walk out of the kitchen, as she followed her in to the living room.
Hermione was pasting around the freshly made tea. When she pasted around all the tea's she came around to past Draco's one. She didn't know why but as he reached out to take his tea Hermione smiled uncontrollably when Draco saw her smile at him he thought to himself God how much I missed that smile. Draco smiled back and took his tea. Hermione walked to the kitchen to put the tray back. Before she turned around she felt a hand on her shoulder when she turned around her eyes met Ron's. Hermione hugged Ron like it was the end of her life.
When they pulled back Ron asked "Hermione I heard what happened. Are you alright?" Ron had a look of concern on his face.
Hermione smiled to him "Yes Ron I'm alright it's just a bit of a shock that's all. Really I'm fine."
Ron didn't look that sure with the answer he heard but he decided to go along with it. "OK than Hermione but don't forget I'm always here for you. OK?"
"Yes Ron for God's sake I'm fine." Hermione ended with a tiny laugh.
After half an hour everybody had finished their tea's and had talked about everything. Draco and Hermione said their good-bye's to everyone and left the Potter's house.
Draco and Hermione apparated back to Malfoy Manor. Hermione decided that she was going to take a bath and made her way upstairs to her bedroom take she slept in by herself.
Hermione can out of her bathroom with a white towel around her body and her hair dripping wet. Hermione was shocked when she saw Draco sitting on her bed. Hermione didn't know what to do she was standing there practically naked and soaking wet.
Draco nearly fell off the bed when he saw Hermione Oh God! Draco's eyes met Hermione's. Draco could see the embarrassment on Hermione's face and decided that it was best if he turned his head around I really need to be looking somewhere else, but I just can't.
Draco got off the bed and turned around facing the dressing table. "Er Hermione there's something I need to talk to you about."
Hermione just stayed stuck to where she was standing "What?"
"I need to talk to you about something."
"Really Draco you need to talk to me about something when I'm standing here in a towel soaking wet?"
Hermione could hear Draco laughing behind her.
"Draco what are you laughing about? I didn't say anything funny?" Hermione raised her voice a little.
Draco continued to laugh and said "Well my dear it's nothing I haven't seen before, right?" Draco laughed harder when he heard Hermione gasp.
Hermione felt anger rush through her body. She turned around forgetting about what she was wearing and asked in a raised voice "We, we- me and you had had-"
"Calm down Hermione. What did you think we're married?" Draco answered still amused by the topic of the conversation.
Hermione didn't know what to say she knew that married people did have sex but she never thought she had done it with Draco.
Draco watched as Hermione opened and closed her mouth like a fish.
Draco smiled "honestly Hermione did you really think we didn't?"
Hermione finally found her voice and answered "Well I know that married people do have sex but I never thought that we did it."
"Well Hermione do you remember when we did it in the lib-"
Before Draco could finish his sentence Hermione shouted "DRACO!" Draco stopped mid sentence and smirked his famous smirk. Before Draco could say anything he saw Hermione walk to her walk-in-closet and close the door behind her.
Draco laughed to himself and sat back down on the bed he used to share with Hermione and waited for her to come back out.
Hermione closed the door of her walk-in-closet and sat on the comfy and repeated the words Draco had just told her It's nothing I've never seen before.
Ahhh I can't believe I've slept with Draco. Draco bloody Malfoy.
Hermione choose dark blue jeans, a cream jumper, a dark brown cardigan and long brown boots. Hermione wanted to stay there as long as possible but she was a bit anxious to learn what Draco had to tell her.
Hermione opened her door and found Draco lying on the bed with one hand under his head and the other on his stomach. Hermione didn't know why but she couldn't stop looking at him just laying there.
Even through Draco was lying there he could still see Hermione looking at him from the corner of the room. Draco smirked "Liking what you see Hermione?" asked Draco as he slowly got of the bed and stood in front of Hermione.
Hermione instantly turned red "no I was just, I was looking at the, at the"
"Ok Hermione calm down. You don't have to admit that you were looking I already saw you. Now I need to talk to you about something important."
Hermione sat down on the bed and waited for Draco to explain his problem.
"Now look Hermione this weekend it's my mother's birthday so we have to attend her birthday dinner and the trip we got her to go to Italy."
"What? It's Narcissa's birthday? Is Lucius going to be there?" Hermione felt panicked all off a sudden.
"Well Hermione I think he'll like to attend his wife's birthday. Don't you think?" Draco knew that this news was going to be a bit shocking for Hermione so he tried to take it slow.
"I don't know Draco I don't think Lucius will want me to be there."
"Hermione don't be stupid of course he will want you there. And mother will be really upset if you're not there. You know how much she likes you and she's been looking forward to go to Italy for weeks."
"Draco I don't know. How can I act like we're family and stuff when I don't even know them Draco?"
"Hermione don't worry every things going to be fine. Don't worry about it. Hermione please you have to come mother will be crushed if you don't come."
"Draco, what if we just tell them what happened?"
"Hermione look we can't tell them ok, you know what my parents are like. Please Hermione I've never wanted anything from you until this day. Please I know that you can't remember anything but Hermione please for me just come to dinner and to Italy with me."
Hermione wanted to reject again but she couldn't bring herself to say no when she saw the pleading in his grey eyes.
"How long is this trip to Italy Draco?" Hermione asked.
Draco felt a hugh weight lift off of his shoulders "It's only for a couple of days, we will be staying in a hotel."
"Fine Draco but you have to help me through everything ok?" Hermione asked.
Draco smiled "Of course Hermione I will always help you, through anything."
When Hermione saw Draco smile she couldn't help but smile herself.
The pair of them stayed like that for a couple of seconds when Draco broke the silence "Well Hermione I don't know about you but I'm starving. How about we go and get something to eat?"
At the mention of food Hermione noticed that she too was starving "Ah thank God you finally asked. Come on let's go."
Before Hermione finished her sentence she was already out of the door and going down the stairs.
Draco and Hermione sat inside a cosy little restaurant staring at the menu.
"So Hermione what will you be having this evening?" Asked Draco in a posh voice that earned him a chuckle from Hermione.
"Ah I do not know Draco. I think I will be having the chicken pie and what will you be having?" Hermione liked talking like this because she liked the way Draco's face lit up.
"I too think I will be having the chicken pie."
Just than a waiter arrived at their table ready to take there order. After Draco and Hermione gave their orders they began to talk about silly things and laughed a lot. Hermione finally felt herself relax.
Hermione thought to herself well who would of thought that Draco Malfoy was this fun to be with. And why can't I refuse the things he asks me to do?
Draco looked at Hermione and for a second he felt like he got his Hermione back. Oh God her smile and laugh's going to be the end of me.
