So I got my first bout of "criticism" on the last chapter. Talking about how so many things are confusing and they didn't understand what I wrote. Well that's how I write, things get explained later on. But if you have any questions about the story private message me, and I will answer as much as I can without giving away to much.
I do not take criticism well, I'm Italian, and we're stubborn. But I do like keeping my reviewers happy.
I hope you enjoy this chapter.
They woke up the next morning completely wrapped up in each other, legs tangled, arms around each other, and completely pressed against each other.
Hermione hurriedly pushed away from Draco, jumping away from him.
He was slightly hurt at first, before he realized why she did it as she ran into the bathroom and threw up.
"Hermione this is ridiculous, you need to go to the hospital wing." Draco sighed, as he sat up and stretched his arms over his head, hearing his joints pop as he groaned.
"No. No I'm fine, I'm sure it's just a bad flu." She said, rinsing her mouth our with water.
"If it was a flu then I probably would have got it from you." He said, rolling his eyes.
"Well what else could it be?" She asked, as she walked back into the room.
"Well I don't know, but Madam Pomfrey will, so you should go." He said sternly.
"I'll think about it." She said, sitting beside him.
"That's your way of saying 'fine I'll go but I'm going to pretend to think about so you won't get cocky'" He said, as she laughed.
"Oh definitely." She said giggling.
Suddenly they heard a loud noise and jumped.
They looked over to see Draco's eagle owl standing in the corner looking slightly mad at only just now being noticed.
It pushed it's leg out in Hermione's direction, letting her know the message was not for Draco.
She walked over and untied the letter from it's leg, and as she looked at who it was from she got a nervous look on her face.
Dear Hermione,
I should have known those pictures were fake!
I know you better then that, I am honestly ashamed
of myself.
I am so sorry I believed they were real.
Now, what happened between you and your friends that
was so bad they sent me these to get you in trouble?
Sincerely,
Mom.
P.S. Tell your friend Draco I said thank you for clearing things up. You know,
he seems quite taken with you, he spoke very highly of you in his letter.
After she finished reading she jumped him in a hug.
"Draco you're so sweet, I can't believe you wrote my parents for me." She said, smiling.
"It was absolutely no problem Mya, they needed to know the truth." He said, glad that she was happy.
"Now I'll be back in a second I have to go do something." He said, slowly getting up.
"Okay, I need to write a reply to her anyway." She said, walking to her room to get her parchment.
He ran downstairs and checked his potion, it looked good so he quickly added the tongue.
After about 45 seconds the potion turned orange, and he smiled real big. He quickly put a charm he had learned from his father on the potion, making it undetectable so if they tried to find out why he wouldn't wake up, they'd never know.
"Weasel, prepare for a long night's rest." He said to himself as he poured some into a vial.
He poured five vials just in case, then vanished the potion with his wand.
Just as he was putting his cauldron up Hermione came downstairs.
"Can we stay in here today?" Hermione asked, biting her lip.
"Yes of course. I'm just gonna go down for a minute to tell Pansy something and I'll come back up her alright?" He asked, really hoping she didn't ask to come, she'd never let him go through with it with the risk of getting caught.
"Yeah that's fine, I'm going to catch up on some homework." She said, going to sit on the couch after grabbing her Transfiguration book.
"Before I go, what did you say to your mom?" He asked, watching her.
"I told her that something happened, and I'd rather not talk about it through a letter." She said, opening her book to the chapter she was working on.
"She's going to be seriously curious now if she's anything like you." He said, smiling.
"Oh trust me she will be." She said, laughing slightly.
After making sure she was fine he left.
He quickly walked down the great hall searching for Pansy, after finding her he quickly walked over to her and sat beside her.
He was about to speak when Professor Dumbledore stood up.
"I'm sure everyone has seen the terrible images that were placed along the halls yesterday. And I'm sad to say that we did not get to find out who did it, they put a spell on the portraits that made them unable to see or hear anything happening. But I assure you, I will find out who it was, and that person will be severely punished" He said, his eyes pausing on Ginny, Ron, and Harry.
You could see that they held no fear, they just knew no one would find out.
After Dumbledore sat back down, Draco leaned over to Pansy.
"I need you to slip something into Weasley's pumpkin juice." He whispered, making sure no one could hear them.
"Oooh will it kill him?" She said excitedly.
He laughed before shaking his head no.
"Unfortunately he'll remain alive, but we won't have to deal with him for a while." He said, before explaining what the potion did.
"Oh I will get it in him, even if I have to force it down his throat." Her eyes were alight with happiness, excited to see his body on the floor.
She took the vial from him, hiding them under her robe, before standing up and walking over to the Gryffindor table.
She sat down beside Ron, grabbing his pumpkin juice out of his hand.
He looked at her with his mouth hanging open as she sat the cup on the bench between her legs.
"I've been thinking. And I'm on your side." She said, as the surrounding Gryffindors gasped.
"Oh really?" Ron asked, a small smirk sliding across his face. She quickly took the vial out, and poured it into his pumpkin juice.
"Nope." She laughed, smacking his cheek roughly before setting his cup back on the table and walking away. She walked back over to Draco, winking at him.
"Well it's in, let's just hope he'll still drink it now that it's contaminated by Slytherin hands." She muttered, as Draco rolled his eyes.
After minutes of waiting Ron brought the cup to his lips and drank thoroughly.
Pansy and Draco held their breath as they waited.
All of the sudden Ron gripped the edges of the table, swaying back and forth.
He swayed for a few seconds before his face fell into his eggs.
"Ron?" They heard Ginny shout, as she shook his shoulders to get him up.
Pansy let out a truly evil giggle, as he fell back into the floor.
"Draco you have just made this the best day ever." She said, smiling.
"I agree." He laughed, watching Harry and Ginny freaking out over Ron, smacking his face as they tried to wake him up.
"Harry what's wrong with him? Why won't he wake up?" Ginny yelled, fear in her voice.
"I don't know Gin!" He said, as the professors came rushing over.
"Well my job is done, I'm going back up to Hermione." He said, standing up.
When he got back he saw Hermione caught up in her homework, her quill in between her teeth as she went over her answers.
"You stare at that paper any harder you're gonna burn a hole in it." Draco said, making her jump.
"Gah, you scared me." She said holding her hand over her heart.
"Sorry." Draco said, still smiling.
"You seem awfully chipper." She said, looking at him confused.
"Well I've just taken care of our Weasley problem." He said, causing her eyes to widen.
"Oh my god, did you kill him?" She shouted, her voice scared.
"No Hermione. Just put him to sleep for a while." He said, explaining the potion.
"Oh you could have got caught! You should be more careful!" She said, though she was smiling.
"Pansy had a bigger chance of getting caught then me, she's the one who put the potion in his pumpkin juice." He smirked.
"Draco Malfoy! You had your friend do your dirty work?" She smacked his arm, as he laughed.
"We didn't get caught, and Weasley is out of our lives for awhile. And by the time he wakes up the Verituserum will be ready." He said, as she bit her lip.
"I'm not gonna lie that's a Major relief." She said, feeling like a huge weight had been lifted from her shoulders.
They sat next to each other, his arm around her shoulder as she stared into the fireplace.
"What do you want to do when you get out of school?" She suddenly asked, curling up into his side.
"I want to be an auror, I was raised in a house where evil was praised, and now I want to help rid the world of it." He said, as she smiled.
"I always knew you didn't want to be a death eater, Harry and.. Ron never agreed with me, but I knew deep down." She said, looking up at him.
"You're heart is so pure, so open and big. I don't even deserve someone like you in my life." He muttered scooting even closer to her.
"Don't ever say that, you're the sweetest person I've ever met" She said softly, leaning up towards him.
They kept moving closer until their lips were merely a centimeter apart, he could feel her warm breath on his face, her eyes slowly fluttered close.
Their lips brushed, and he felts chills run up and down his spine. Just a little bit closer and they'd be kissing.
He pushed closer to her, and she suddenly pulled back, running from the room to puke her guts up.
When she came back, she looked at him apologetically.
"That's it, we're going to Madam Pomfrey." He said, standing up and leading her out of the room.
"No wait! Ron will be in there, and Ginny and Harry probably will be too, I don't want to see them!" She said, scared.
"I'll go in first and have Madam Pomfrey come to the door and lead you to a private bed." He said, determined to get her to the hospital wing.
"But.. What if she can't? What if I go in there and Ginny and Harry ambush me?" She was looking for excuses now.
"Then I'll stun them both Hermione, you're not going to change my mind. I want to make sure whatever this is, it isn't bad" He said, leading her out of the portrait.
"But.. But.. Uhm.. Okay I got nothing. Fine I'll go." She sighed, as he smiled.
After dragging her to the hospital wing, they found that Ron was in fact there, but Harry and Ginny weren't.
"I'm just glad he's asleep so I don't have to deal with him too." Hermione muttered, as Madam Pomfrey came running over.
"What seems to be the problem love?" She asked, gently placing her hand on Hermione's arm.
"I've been throwing up a lot lately, and he was worried about me." Hermione said, rolling her eyes.
"Oh dear." She said, bringing Hermione over to a bed.
"I'm gonna do a simple spell to see if I can figure out what's going on." She said, waving her wand over Hermione's body.
The tip of her wand turned pink, as she bit her lip. She said a different spell and Hermione's stomach glowed for a second.
"Oh my." She said, her hand dropping to her side.
"What is it?" Draco asked fearfully.
"You're pregnant." She said, as Hermione gasped.
"Oh Madam Pomfrey please let this be a joke." She said, tears springing to her eyes.
"I wish I could Miss Granger, I really do." She said, biting her lip.
"I don't want to have my rapists baby." She cried, suddenly wishing abortion wasn't illegal in the wizard world.
"I'll leave you two alone." She whispered, as Hermione sobbed into Draco's shoulder.
"Oh god Draco, what am I going to do?" Her cries were growing louder as she clung to him.
"Well.. Hermione there is one thing. But I'm not sure if you're up for it." Draco muttered.
"What is it?" She asked, looking at him.
"There's a potion you can take, it's not legal, but it's been done before." He whispered.
"What does it do?" She asked, hoping it was good.
"It doesn't actually cause an abortion.. But it erases the seed of the father completely, so it will be as if the baby never existed. You'll even be a virgin again." He explained as her eyes lit up.
"Oh that sounds absolutely amazing! But there has to be some catch." She asked, biting her lip.
"For the potion to work..You have to lose your virginity again instantly or it will kill you." He said, looking down at the ground.
Ooh will Hermione agree to it? I think we all already know the answer. lol Well I hope you liked it! Now I made the potion like this because I'm against abortion. But before I write out Hermione's answer I will have a vote.
Should I:
A: Have her agree, and get rid of it.
B:Make a different potion where Draco will be the father.
C:Have her keep Rons baby, and never let him see it.
