Chapter 22

Hermione stormed out of Dumbledore's office, headed back to her dormitory. Damn it, why couldn't he keep his mouth shut! He's going to Azkaban and he still thinking about me. It doesn't make any sense. Why didn't Draco say something? He was quiet the entire hearing. That's not like him, at least when it comes to Ron. She went into her room and passed out.

Meanwhile, Draco was just leaving the office when Blaise stopped him.

"Have you seen Pansy lately, Drake?"

"No, why?"

"She hasn't been to any of her classes and Bulstrode said that she hasn't been coming back to their room either. Her bed hasn't been slept in the past few nights."

'I wouldn't worry about it, Blaise. She probably disappeared because she found some other person who has money and is dumb enough to fuck her."

"You're probably right. This just isn't like her, you know."

"Yeah, but everyone thought they knew me too and look how I ended up. Married to Mi and a father of twins."

"I guess you're right. I'll see you around. Oh by the way, have you done that Advanced Potions essay yet? Snape wants it as soon as you get it done."

"Yeah, it's done; I just have to have Mi look it over for me."

"Ok, I'll see you in class."

"Bye Blaise."

Draco went towards his dormitory once again. I know exactly what happened to Pansy. She got everything that she deserved. Sure, I regret telling the Dark Lord about it, but it's one less thing I have to deal with now.

He found Hermione asleep on their bed. Merlin, she's beautiful. He leaned down and kissed her on the cheek and rolled over and fell asleep.

Ron was at the Ministry of Magic, just about to be booked for attempted murder when his "brother" Percy came in with some outstanding news.

"Ron, your wand was tested and it was concluded that you never fired the Killing Curse at Malfoy. You're free to go. I don't know who did it but you didn't. Dad is absolutely happy about it. Mom is practically doing back flips."

Ron's eyes widened with astonishment. "Wait, I know that I threw that curse at Malfoy."

"Well, it obviously didn't come out of your wand. You must have just thought about it or something."

"No, I know what I did. Harry was there, he pushed Malfoy out of the way to keep for getting hit with that curse. What was the last spell I did with my wand?"

"Lumos. I guess you wanted to see where you were going."

"Then who shot the killing curse at Malfoy?"

"I don't know, but someone must have wanted to kill him pretty badly and frame you for it."

"I guess so."

"You'll be going back to school tonight."

"Thanks Percy."

"No problem little brother."

Hermione woke up from her nap and was surprised to see that Draco was beside her. She quietly gets up out of bed and decided that she was going to read a book. She sat down on the humongous couch and curled up reading "The Green Mile" by Stephen King. One of her all time favorite books. She was so enthralled by the book; she didn't hear the portrait door open and some one walk in. She looked up and saw Ron standing there. "Missed me?"

Sorry have to leave you there. Have to go get my car fixed.
