Author's Note- Hi everyone. I'm sorry it has taken me so long to update, but I couldn't. Because my grandma and grandpa were here I couldn't get on the computer much. I would get the chance to type three paraghraphs before they walked in the room. Didn't feel like explain a love story I was writng to them when I am only in the seventh grade. Awkward. Anyway here is the story. P.S. There is some bad language in this chapter.
Chapter 5-
I sat in the dinning room waiting for my father to come down for breakfast. It had been a week since Hermoine had found out she was a Pureblood. Now we had decide to tell my parents. We were only worried about one thing, Lucius explosion that was sure to come.
Narcissa sat in the chair across from me. Her eyes watched me as I fidgeted with my fingernails. We both looked up as Lucius chair scraped against the wooden flooring.
The house elf came in and severed the food. We ate in silence. I picked at the eggs and slipped my juice. There was no good way for me to start this. I may as well get it over with before Hermoine got here.
"Um...I have something important I need to tell you." I announced.
"Who the hell did you knock up, Draco?" Lucius snarled.
"No one. It's not like that." I blushed. Guess my playboy ways got to his hears.
"Then what is it?" Narcissa said.
"It's about a friend I made resonantly. We just found out some shocking news last week while you were gone." I started.
"What is the news?" Lucius drawled in a bored tone.
"That she is a Pureblood. She is known to the entire Wizarding World for being the smartest Mudblood, but now she isn't. Her parents had left after the First War to the muggle world. They didn't tell her until now."
"If you have only been meeting her since you found out she is a Pureblood that's fine." Narcissa said.
"Er... I have been talking to her before we knew." I mumbled.
"That's just great Draco." Lucius spit sarcastically.
"Well, that's okay. We know now. When can we meet her?" Narcissa queried.
"She will be here in a few minutes." I answered.
At least I was done with that part. I just had to get over the actual reaction to them seeing Hermoine. This wasn't going to be pretty. Right then a knock came from the front door. I stood up.
"I'll get it." I said, walking into the next room.
I opened the door to reveal a nervous, yet beautiful, Hermoine. She stood there fidgeting with the edge of her shirt. I grabbed her hand, and pulled her into the house with me.
"Narcissa is taking it fine. She may be shocked when she sees you. Though, it won't be nothing compared to Lucius." I whispered to her.
"Lets go. Nothing to be afraid of other than an angry Death Eather right?" I said seriously.
"What the hell is wrong with you." Hermoine said while punching me in the shoulder. Right at that moment my parents walked into the room.
Narcissa gasped. After a moment of staring she recovered. Strolling forward she extended a hand to Hermoine.
"Lovely too meet you, Miss Granger."
"You too, Mrs. Malfoy." said a rather embarrassed Hermoine. She dropped her arm that was around my shoulder to shake hands with my mother.
Stepping back we all took a glance at Lucius. He had remain quiet during this encounter. He stood there staring at us with a lifeless expression. Finally he addressed me with a cold glare. There was something else in his look also. I couldn't tell what it was. Panic or Guilt? Nevertheless I faced him with my cool demeanor. Ready for the oncoming slaughter.
"What the fuck do you think you are doing Draco!" he snapped.
Silence. Hermoine clutched my arm.
"You are throwing away all the protection I gave you." he snarled.
"What protection?" I countered. "If you wanted me to have protection why did you become a Death Eater. Hun... Why the hell did you become a Death Eater?" I sneered.
"Do you know how hard it has been for me because you're a Death Eater. I can't have normal friends. Ones that aren't Death Eater's spawn. I can't be what I want after school. For Merlin's sake I can't pick who my own friends are. You beating me sure as hell didn't help either!" I shouted in frustration.
"You don't now anything you arrogant little bastard." Lucius sneered.
"The fuck I don't. How about you tell me then. Tell me why you beat mum and me." I demanded, taking a step forward, challenging him.
"No Draco." Hermoine whispered pulling me back. I shrugged her off. My eyes flashed back to her apologetically.
"I beat you so that you would learn. If you hadn't learned fast enough you would have died. The Dark Lord doesn't except Purebloods not obeying him. I became a Death Eater to protect you two. I love you. Nothing is every going to harm you. Not me. Not the Dark Lord. No one will."
By the time he was done my mother was crying. A single tear ran down Lucius face. His expression was torment. Hermoine was silently sobbing behind me.
All the abuse, all the hate, the anger, it was to protect us. He loved us more than anything if he hit us to protect us. How he could do that I couldn't fathom. It would be like hurting Hermoine. Impossible. Yet, he still did it.
"You don't know what it was like to hurt you. I stayed awake every night. Images of me hitting you tortured me. I did everything I could to protect you from the Dark Lord, and you put yourself in the most danger you could ever have done. You befriend the most hated Mudblood of the Dark Lord."
"I'm sorry, but she saved me. She stopped me from feeling the pain. Not to mention she is a Pureblood now."
"I know she is a Pureblood now, Draco. The problem is, is that the rest of the Wizarding World doesn't. They believe she is Muggle born. Until they know it isn't safe for you two to be together. You can't be seen in the Wizard World"
"Okay, we won't be seen, but I will still see her no matter what. She means more to me than anything." I said grabbing Hermoine's hand.
I pulled her into my arms. "It's okay." Wiping her tears away I kissed her forehead. "Thanks." she said while leaning into me.
"I guess this settles everything. I'm sorry I ever hurt you."Lucius commented.
"Yes." I replied. "Come on Hermoine. Lets go for a walk."
"I want to talk to your mother for a second."
"Fine."
She walked over to Narcissa and whispered, "How can they both walk away so easily after what just happened?"
"Draco and Lucius are independent and strong. They don't take emotions well. Especially if it's between them. Still they will come around. Just give them time." Hermoine nodded and came back to me.
Narcissa stood be Lucius. Warping his arms around her he kissed her. This was the first time in a long that I had seen them kiss each other. A real kiss. Not the fake half kiss that they gave each other for the cameras.
We strolled threw the garden in silence, hand-in-hand. Enjoying each others presence. Sighing Hermoine rested her head on my shoulder. I wrapped my arm around her, pulling my life raft closer. Together we watched the sun setting before us. The orange and purple colors illuminating the garden around us.
"It's beautiful. The sky isn't it. I used to watched the sunset from my backyard every night when I was a little girl."
"It is beautiful, but not as beautiful as you."
Hermoine blushed and buried her face in my chest. I kissed the top of her head.
"Draco?"
"Yes, Moine."
"I know your dad said we can't be seen in the Wizarding World together. It would be dangerous for both of us until they know I'm a Pureblood. Still, I was wondering when you were planing on asking me on a date. I mean you have kissed me so..."
I laughed. It was so funny that Hermoine Granger of all people was asking me when our first date would be.
"When ever you want it to be."
"How about this weeken. It will let you take your mind off of your father. We can go to someplace in the muggle world."
"That sounds great. By the way I'm sorry I forgot to ask you on a date. Your just different from other girls. I forget sometimes when I'm with you."
"It's fine, but you know what it means now that you forgot."
"What?" I asked.
"It means that the date must be absolutely perfect."
We both began laughing. Leaning onto each other for support. Still I ended up falling on the ground, shaking in laugher. Which made Hermione giggle even hard. Grabbing her hand I pulled her down next to me.
Soon our giggles faded out into the night. We lay there under the Weeping Willows looking up at the stars. I stroked her hand with the back of my thumb. I never wanted this moment to end.
I turned over to face Hermoine. Taking her face in my hands I leaned down and kissed her. This kiss wasn't like our other kiss. This was sweet. Not a I-need-you-right-now-in-this-very-moment kiss that was one we had shared. This said I never want to leave you. And I didn't.
We broke a part still staring at each other. Slowly I pulled her hand to my heart. "You're healing me, Hermione. I need you. Never leave me. Ever."
"I wont."
"Good." I said kissing her one more time.
Quietly I walked her back home. It was completely dark by now. The only thing lighting our way was the stars above us. Watching over us like personal guardians.
"Come over in the morning will you?" I asked.
"Sure. Bye Draco."
"Bye."
I waited until she was inside before turning and walking home. Today was one on the best days I had ever had. My father had finally explained the need to abuse my mum and me. There was going to be no more hurt and pain.
Hermoine and me were even closer. I was sure by now that I loved her. She was different from other girls. She was intelligent, beautiful, and she understood me. She was like the first breath of fresh air you take after running out of a burning building. She was everything I need and wanted.
