CHAPTER 9:
"That's it Malfoy", Hermione exclaimed quietly but with a strength , " I've done and listened to everything you wanted me to do, you've forced me into doing things such as flying, you've hurt me physically and emotionally, all I ask is one thing. Please, please don't make me go back to the manor. That is the place where I was tortured out of my mind, had the word mudblood carved into my hand and was used as an entertainment source for your crazy demented aunt Belletrix. I won't go, I won't."
I stared at her, deep in thought. By the end of her little speech, I noted that she had tear drops slowly rolling down her cheeks. I sighed, unsure of what to do.
It was then I decided I might as well go on with taking her to the manor since the elves would have been preparing for her arrival and also because if her little speech was true, the meant she would depend on me more at the major then at any other place. She would trust me the greatest.
I walked up to her and said " well then, where would you like to go", and before she could answer I grabbed her hand and apparated out of the room of requirement into the manor.
As soon as we arrived to our destination, i watched as I let go of her and, noting her stumbling from lack of balance and finally falling on to the ground.
I bent down, grabbed her hand and pulled her up swiftly, as if her weight had meant nothing to me.
I chuckled as I watched her facial expression change from wonder to shock and then to horror and finally fear.
"Come on now, I'll walk you to our room," I stated with a smirk.
I let go of her hand and began walking, and then felt my heart leap with joy when I felt her small warm hand grab mine in order to keep up with me and also to give her a sense of security.
We walked for a bit more, and it was then I noticed that she suddenly stopped walking.
She was eyeing the drawing room, and I sighed, cursing at myself for taking her along this path.
" Hermione dear, no one is there, Belletrix is in azkhaban, she will never come near you again, I promise",I had said, putting full truth into my words.
"Malfoy, I can't, I'm sorry but I can't forget, what if, I'm scared," she finally said admittingly.
I sighed, "I know you don't like me very much at the moment but would it help if I held you," I had asked, knowing for sure that she would reply positive, just like she did when I first took her on my broomstick.
I smirked as she nodded slowly but hesitantly.
I wrapped my arm around her waist, pulling her petite little body close to mine.
I noticed how our bodies fit perfectly together, as if we were made for each other.
Slowly she began walking with me and after another couple of minutes, we finally reached my bedroom.
I opened the door and walked in, closing the door behind her after she entered.
"Well, what do you think?", I asked, waving my hand around my room.
She looked at me and then at the room, taking in the enormous bed, which would have been big enough for 4 people to sleep horizontally, the mammoth bookshelf, the 2 walk in dressing rooms, one with Hermione's name scrolled across it's door and the bathroom which from her position and the fact that it's door was open, you could tell was very big.
"how long do you expect me to stay here, I'm not your possession, I have a home, plenty of friends and so much more, what do you want from me", she asked, with curiosity filling every word she said.
I looked at her, masking all my emotions and replied, whispering my answer in to her ear," how long you'll be staying here? Well forever of course. What do I want from you? Everything.
And then I grabbed her hand once more and apparated to the dining hall in which I hoped the elves had ready a feast.
As soon as we arrived she looked around curiously and then back at me. She watched as I gestured for her to sit down. I smiled as I saw her hesitantly eyeing the room looking, deciding, which seat she should sit in. I was happy, over the moon, she was finally beginning to trust me, she got over that fear, but it would take a lot longer for her to love me, and I hoped I was patient enough to wait that long.
