A.N. Part 2 is great and I really love it. I need some reviews though because I'm out on a limb!
Lost and Found
Part II:
Secrets
Hermione:
Hermione woke with a start. She had no idea where she was or where Draco was. She looked around to see if she could identify anything,
The walls were white with no pictures and no decorations. Looking down at herself Hermione realized she was dressed in a hospital gown and laying in a little bed. How she got there she had no idea.
No one else was in the room and both of the other beds were empty. She quickly rubbed her eyes and tried to get out of bed. Immediately a pain shot through her stomach and she cried out.
Several healers rushed in and went to work. With in moments they had her back on the bed and gave her a potion to stop the pain. Hermione slowly calmed down and asked one of the witches what was wrong with her.
"Well actually darling er did you know you were pregnant?"
"What? What happened to my baby?"
"Calm down dear everything is going to be all right."
"I…I didn't l-lose it did I?"
"See dear, you were carrying twins. You only lost one, but we managed to save the little boy."
Hermione didn't speak she had nothing to say. She had never heard of such a thing. Losing one baby but still having the other? It sounded mad. And Draco, what would happen to him?
He had yelled at her and called her a mudblood again. Hermione felt bad for never telling him, she had planned to do it the very next day. But that day had never come and now she was stuck in the hospital all alone. Then it hit her that she was still having his baby and that not all was lost and if she heard right it was a little boy too.
She could feel the tears running down her face and quickly went to wipe them away. "What happened to Draco? Is he okay?"
"I don't know sweetie but I'm sure he is okay."
Hermione nodded and put her face in her hands. The healer patted her back softly and went to the door. "Oh, dear do you feel up for visitors at the moment? Because there are a few here for you."
She knew Draco would not be with who ever came but she nodded anyway. Moments later her parents, Harry and Ron all walked in. They seemed quite happy that she was all right and quickly grabbed her up in hugs.
Hermione tried to keep up a strong front but only managed to cry more. Eventually she told them of the complications she was having and about the baby. Her parents looked at her worriedly and the boys gave her funny looks.
No one, however, asked her who the father was and for that she was grateful. They only stayed for a few more minutes because another visitor had just arrived and said that he had to speak with her immediately.
Her hopes rose for a moment for she desperately wanted to see Draco. She knew it was not him because of what had happened last night. Instead of the beautiful boy she wanted she got another and much older man.
Draco:
Draco was back at Hogwarts in his bed. He had just woken with no memory of last night and little of the past few months either. Draco stretched and slowly got up to bathe.
As he always did first, he went to his trunk and pulled out his robes for the day. As he pulled out the clothes he noticed a little slip of parchment had fallen out. Bending slightly he grabbed what seemed to be a note.
It was a note and by the look of the handwriting from a girl. Draco raised an eyebrow and unfolded the slip of paper.
Draco,
Good morning darling, I just wanted to say thank-you for the fun last night. I love you so much and cannot wait for our little picnic today.
I have something I really need to tell you and I hope you will like it as much as I do. Please do not come to the spot until noon, because I'm setting up something special.
Love always,
Hermione
Draco read through the letter several times to make sure he was not imagining things. He had no idea where the note had come from or why it was there.
He had not seen it before so that must have meant it had been put there this morning or late last night. That really didn't make much sense either considering he didn't remember doing anything special the night before and definitely not with Granger!
And where exactly was it that she wanted to meet him? How was he to know what the 'spot' was. The most sickening part was where she said she loved him and the way she had signed it.
Draco shuddered as if he was cold. Now he really needed that shower, because he felt disgusting. With one more quick glance at the letter he folded the note and shoved it back into his trunk.
Hermione:
Dumbledore walked into Hermione's room. To say he was acting normal would have been one heck of a lie, because he looked royally pissed. Something was sitting wrong on his nerves that was for sure.
"Good morning Professor. Can I help you with something," she was trying to sound normal she didn't want to look like a fool in front of the headmaster.
"Miss Granger I have to say I am terribly sorry. This an outrage really."
"It's alright Professor I'm sure we can figure something out. Can't we?"
"It seems that you do not understand the problem completely. Do you remember what happened last night?"
"Yes, well most of it. I still don't know why we were there exactly."
"Well Miss Granger you see the plan was to modify both yours and Mr. Malfoy's memories. I did manage to save yours however and I must say that you are here because of me."
"What? Is that why he was so mean to me last night?" Dumbledore nodded slightly and returned to his mad pacing. "And that means it's your fault I lost my baby!"
"Yes and I am terribly sorry had I known that fact I would have acted differently. I am aware though that you only lost one, correct?"
Hermione nodded and turned to stare at the only window. She understood now why Draco had acted that way. He did not remember her and the five blissful months they had spent together, and he would never know his own child born of their love.
"But why? Why did they want to do that to us?"
"Well that's really the problem. The Ministry contacted me and said that they needed to speak with you both because you were in great danger."
He sighed and continued on with his speech, "The Aurors believed that he was using you for some dark propose and they wanted to find out what it was. It seems that they had a student stationed as a spy. Whilst they watched you they discovered that you were hiding something from everyone."
"When they uncovered Mr. Malfoy's plans they took immediate action. The results of this lay in front of us Miss Granger. But the Ministry does not consist of the cleverest people."
"What do you mean? Is Draco going to be okay? Please I need to help him, even if he doesn't want me too."
"I am doing everything I can and I think we can keep him safe. But I do believe he will need to cooperate for this to work."
Hermione nodded wearily she knew what had to be done. It would be very hard but maybe with enough power they could bring him over. It would be challenging and with the baby on the way she was going to be putting in some long hours.
"Just tell me what to do," she was worried beyond belief.
Draco:
Draco skipped his shower, he didn't feel like taking it anymore. Something had shocked him just moments after getting under the water.
Flash Back
He remembered a time when he had been taking a shower in the prefects bathroom. It was the evening after another hard Quidditch game. They had lost and it was wearing hard on him. The time he was wasting on the sport only to have lost the game…
He ran a hand through his soaked hair and let out a groan. Suddenly the curtain shifted slightly. Someone stepped into the shower behind him and he swung around to see who it was.
"Careful Draco or you are going to fall."
Draco couldn't see her face, it was dim and blurry. "How did you know it was me in here? You could have walked in on anyone!"
"Hush, I knew you would be in here because this is where you always go when your mad or upset."
"Oh so you can read me now? Just like one of your bloody books."
"I thought I told you to be quiet? You do realize I didn't jump in here just to argue. I came to make you feel better."
End Flash Back
That's where he cut it off. It was tantalizing to watch that scene play over in his mind without having to see the other half. Really that had never happened to him before.
Reliving even the best of sex was not worth the time. There was always more 'adventures' to have and most of the girls weren't worth the time either.
This was not just reliving this was something more, something he couldn't place a finger on.
A.N. Hope you liked this chapter. It didn't come out quite like I planned because I added the flash back but it still good, right? Part 3 is going to be a bit more difficult to write but I'll get it out there soon.
