The following morning Hermione woke up early. It was a Saturday, so she tried to go back to sleep, but her sleep was filled with nightmares of previous events.
“No…! Get off me!”
“I want you Hermione!”
“Get off! Why me?”
“Haven’t you noticed? You’re hot.”
“It’s not fair.”
“I’m doing this to protect you.”
“How is this protecting me?”
“I don’t want those stupid boys at your stupid school doing anything to you.”
Hermione woke up screaming.
“Hermione, are you alright?” Draco asked, quietly walking towards the bed.
“Oh Draco, he wanted to rape me too.”
“Who wanted to?”
“C-Carl.” Hermione sobbed.
“Your step father?” Draco asked, wrapping his arms around Hermione.
“Yes.”
“But I thought he hit-”
“He does. But he also does other things.”
“Oh, Hermione. Why didn’t you tell anyone?”
“I didn’t want anyone to feel sorry for me.”
“C’mon Hermione, let’s go downstairs.”
Draco helped Hermione downstairs to the common room, where they sat down on a couch. Hermione drew her legs up and cuddled into Draco, who put his arm around Hermione.
“Thankyou Draco.”
“That’s okay Hermione. Just go to sleep.”
“But-”
“No buts Hermione. Nobody will hurt you. You’re going to be fine.”
Hermione nodded and leaned her head on Draco’s chest and closed her eyes.
Harry and Blaise came into the heads common room at 8:30 am. Both Hermione and Draco were asleep. Hermione was cuddled against Draco with her head on his chest, and Draco had his arms wrapped tightly around her.
“What the hell is going on here?” Harry exploded.
Draco and Hermione both woke up and turned to Harry and Blaise. Hermione gasped as she saw red hair behind the boys, but sighed of relief when she realised it was Ginny.
“Hermione, are you alright?” Ginny asked, noticing Hermione’s tear-stained and frightened face.
“Can I talk to you Ginny?” Hermione sobbed.
Ginny nodded and she and Hermione ran up to her room.
“Hermione, what’s going on?” Ginny asked calmly after they sat down on the big bed.
“You’ll hate me if I told you.” Hermione whispered.
“Not I wouldn’t.”
“Well you wouldn’t believe me.”
“Yes I would. Hermione, does this have anything to do with Ron?”
Hermione hesitated, and then nodded.
“What did he do?”
Hermione looked up at Ginny with pain in her eyes. “Can’t you tell?”
Ginny paused, and then stared at Hermione.
“Oh no, he didn’t?”
Hermione nodded. “I told you you’d hate me. I’m such a baby. I always let them do it.”
“What do you mean Hermione? You’re not a baby, and I certainly don’t hate you.”
“Look, I don’t really want to talk about it right now. And please don’t tell Harry or Blaise.”
“But they’re your brothers, they deserve to know!”
“Deserve to know what?” Blaise asked from the doorway. “That Ron did something to you? Hurt you, raped you?”
Hermione stared at Blaise for a few moments before nodding.
“How did you know?”
“I’ve been standing there for the entire conversation.”
“Eavesdropper.”
“I wasn’t eavesdropping, I was making sure you were alright.”
“Same difference.”
Blaise walked towards Hermione and put his hand on her shoulder. “Why didn’t you want us to know?”
Hermione shrugged. “I just didn’t, okay?”
Blaise shook his head. “Are you coming downstairs? Harry and Draco are probably going to kill each other soon.”
“Why?”
“Harry is claiming that Draco just wants to get in your pants, and he now wants to kill him.”
Hermione shook her head. “Draco helped me last night. He made him go away. Then I had a bad dream, and he took me down to the common room and helped me get back to sleep.”
“Well tell Harry that, not me.”
Hermione stood up and walked down to the common room, where Harry and Draco were yelling at each other.
“Harry, lay off him, okay?” Hermione said angrily.
“But Hermione-”
“No Harry. Draco helped me out a lot last night. I trust him with my life.”
Harry groaned and was about to open the door to go, when it was flung open by none other than Ronald Weasley…
