Hello everyone. This is where we stopped.

After sometime, "i think this is fine for now. The left of your wounds are still unhealed. That is not good. But then, you can sleep now take rest. Or wait, are you having body aches? If yes, you can have a bath. It will ease the pain"

Actually my body was aching but i had no intention of going away from her. So i shook my head in negation. I don't know, maybe i am just tired of all this hiding. I had made my mind to answer her questions but, she wasn't asking anything.

"Come lets sleep Dorogaya"

"Yeah just five minutes. I will be back."

...

Hermione pov

Within a few minutes, i went back. And laid down on my side of the bed. But well sleep was not visible at all. I tossed and turned for god knows how long till Antonin asked

"Not able to sleep dorogaya?"

"The same could be said for you."

"Yeah but i asked first." He said a bit childishly

"What are you Antonin, a first grader?" I asked back

"No your husband" Antonin replied in the heat of the moment.

"Hmmm" I replied back. But i felt a bit off now and probably he felt it.

"Dorogaya, i had thought that you would ask a million questions about everything."

"Hmm even i thought that but then i felt that you wouldn't like it."

"But still, you can ask but before that, where do you see us, after a few months." His question was unexpected.

"I don't know. I mean... I, huh, i really don't know"

"Just answer me. Are you waiting to get away from this place and me or can you bare me for some more time?"

"It is not that i really want to leave though there are pros and cons i guess but it is not that bad"

"Hush.. Well ask what you want."

"Antonin, why exactly did you join Voldemort. I mean, you don't seem that typical death eater type person. You take his name. And all but then why did you join."

"It is a long story dorogaya, i hope that you aren't feeling sleepy. But the thing is I wanted revenge. I still do. Revenge for every time they wronged me."

"Then why don't you go to professor Dumbledore. He will help you. I am sure he will."

Antonin gave a humorless chuckle, " How can i take help from the very person that i want revenge from?"

"Means?" I asked nonplussed.

He continued, "you will probably change your mind about whether you want to stay here or not when you here it. Trust me you will hate me."

"Well i may hate you but i will surely hat you more if i get to know all this from some outside source."

"Oh dorogaya. Just one request, here me out completely. So, well, my mama and papa were neutral during the first war probably eighteen years back when i was a first year student at Hogwarts. But then they decided too support Dumbledore. There support meant a lot as the dolohovs are very well known. Hell, dorogaya we are more powerful and richer than the Lestranges and Malfoys put together. Dumbledore agreed immediately, as at that time it seemed that Voldemort would win.

By the time they agreed to meet it was a couple more years. And trust me those times were really bad. One day, my mama and papa both went to meet Dumbledore at the orders building of that time. There they found that the whole fucking building was empty. Not a single person. No Weasley. No potter. No diggory. No no-fucking-one. And it was all a plan. There within minutes of my mama and papas entrance Voldemort raided the place. And there were just two casualties in the whole three storied building. Shocking no, it was all planned dorogaya. Dumbledore called me to his office to inform me how unfortunately i was an orphan. It hurt dorogaya. It still hurts. They had gone to help that bastard, then how could he do that to them?"

And with that he broke down he wasn't able to continue. His sobs were very loud and he clung onto me. I slowly got up into a sitting position and pulled Antonin's head into my lap. My heart was breaking for him. Nobody deserves what happened to him. He hugged me by waist all the while laying on the bed. He continued to cry.

Mumbling again and again, "don't leave me dorogaya."

After a long time. His tears stopped but i continued to caress his head.

He continued his heart wrenching story, "In Hogwarts i had only one friend dorogaya. That was Rabastan. Even today he is my friend. In the next year, a lot of things happened. One that the halloween witnessed Voldemort's fall. And second that in the Christmas break i had gone to Rabs house. There Rodolphus and Bellatrix took us for a picnic. For me, they were very good. As they stood by me when nobody else had. So we went there. Now i get it, you know where we went, we went to park near the Longbottoms place. There while Rab and i enjoyed, they tortured the Longbottoms.

Later it was found that crouch's son was also involved and for he sake of saving his public image he sentenced all five of us that is, me , rab, Bellatrix, Rodolphus and Crouch jr. to Azkaban. And from there you know the rest."

With that he got up and i don't know why but i burst into tears. I hugged him and cried. So much had happened. For merlins sake he had spent 15 years in the topmost floor of the Azkaban. For something that was absolutely not his mistake.

"Oh Antonin" was all i could get in before crying again. I had already made his complete chest wet.

"Its fine dorogaya."

After I had calmed myself down. We went to sleep. I was in his arms. He was holding me. And that was the best sleep in many days.

How was it. Please reveiw.
