Silence
Hermione Granger was now being courted by Lucius Malfoy; yes you heard correctly. He had asked her in front of the fire if he could court/date her. She had kissed him with happiness; she couldn't quite believe it. They spent the night together cuddled up talking about their past, their daughter and their hoped for future.
Hermione said goodbye to him that night with a huge smile on her face. She went to sleep dreaming of a white wedding and more children; she couldn't wait to spend more time with him and start to feel like they were a proper couple, a couple who would go out in public to dinners and balls. A couple who could take their daughter to a park or to school.
The next morning, Hermione awoke to a letter from Ginny asking whether she could come round and see Isla and talk to Hermione. Hermione accepted and got herself and Isla ready for the day.
Ginny arrived just after ten o'clock. She was greeted by a weeping Isla and a frustrated Hermione.
'Everything alright?' Ginny asked as she stepped out the floo.
'Everything's fine.' Hermione said as she bounced Isla on her hip trying to calm her down. 'She's started to walk and fell and hit her arm on the coffee table.'
'She's walking?' Ginny said surprised and slight sad that she had missed her God-daughter walking.
'She walked towards Lucius, only about three steps.' Hermione said as she kissed Isla's head and placed her back on the floor. 'Do you want a drink?'
'No I'm alright.' Ginny said as she sat down in the arm chair.
Hermione nodded and sat down on the sofa and let Isla climb up on her legs. Hermione looked over at Ginny and a slight smile appeared on her face.
'Why didn't you tell us Hermione?' Ginny asked.
'Because I knew you would have reacted the way you did. None of you like Lucius, most of you wished he was dead, why would I tell you that Isla is his?' she said as she looked at her daughter. 'You wouldn't believe me if I said I love him. You would have thought he drugged me or raped me but I love him.'
'You love him or you loved him?' Ginny said.
'I love him.' She said as she looked at her friend. 'He didn't use me Ginny, we had something.'
'I just can't believe you would willingly be with him after everything.' Ginny said as she looked at Hermione. 'You are everything he hates.'
'I know that.' She said softly.
'It's just so hard for us to understand.' Ginny said. 'We don't want you getting hurt again. We don't want Isla to get hurt.'
'I know that and I love you all for that.' Hermione said as she lifted Isla into her arms. 'I just want you all to be there for me, if you can't then that's fine too.'
'We're not going to just let you go Hermione.' Ginny said. 'Isla's our God-daughter and you are like my sister.'
'I've missed you all.' Hermione said as she let tears fall down her face.
'Oh Mione!' Ginny said as she stood up and sat down next to Hermione. 'I'll always be here for you.'
'Thank you.' She said trying not to sob her heart out.
'Now, you need to tell me what is going on with you and that man.' She said as she lifted Isla into her arms and smothered her in kisses.
Hermione spent the next hour telling Ginny everything from their first kiss to the previous night. Ginny was surprised at what she was hearing. She couldn't imagine Lucius Malfoy as a doting father or even a lover. Hearing Hermione telling her about their love affair kind of made her see another side of the dark wizard however Ginny still didn't feel comfortable with him.
For the rest of the afternoon, Ginny spent time with her God-daughter and best friend. They organised a shopping trip out for the end of the week and organised for Hermione to join the whole Weasley family on Sunday for lunch.
Ginny left just before five o'clock as Hermione mentioned Lucius normally comes round. Ginny left leaving Hermione and Isla awaiting Lucius's arrival however he never came. Hermione, who was slightly annoyed and upset that he hadn't come to see them, started Isla's bedtime routine and put her to bed however Isla was having none of it.
The little girl was now use to having her blonde haired father put her to sleep or rock her to sleep and Hermione was just not good enough therefore Hermione spent another two hours trying to console her daughter and get her to sleep.
Hermione went to bed that night annoyed and no longer dreaming of a perfect future.
The next day, Hermione dropped Isla at the Burrow and was greeted by a warm and happy Molly who was glad to see her adopted daughter and Granddaughter. Hermione stayed for a morning tea and spoke with Molly and then went onto work.
After work, Hermione collected Isla and went back to her flat. She cooked enough dinner for herself, Isla and even Lucius however he never turned up.
For the second night in the week, Hermione went to sleep wanting to know why Lucius had visited.
For the next three nights Hermione put an inconsolable little girl to bed and then went to her bed trying to sleep however only ended up thinking of one blond Wizard.
On Friday, Hermione and Isla joined Ginny on a shopping trip in Diagon Alley for the first time in about two years. Hermione although enjoyed the day wanted nothing more than to see Lucius she even hoped to see him in Diagon Alley and on her way home she even walked past his office building but no such luck.
Friday night was a stressful and upsetting night for Hermione. She was woken in the middle of the night by a high pitch cry. She immediately ran to Isla to find her burning up.
Hermione took off Isla's Pyjamas and put a cold flannel to her head. She took her temperature which was too high and immediately floo called Molly who told Hermione to go straight to the Hospital.
Hermione was seen straight away and soon Harry and Ginny arrived to support Hermione.
'Have they said what they think is wrong?' Harry asked as he watched Hermione stroke Isla's hand.
'No.' She said as she looked at Harry. 'What if it's something serious?'
'I doubt it is.' Ginny said. 'I expect its bad flu.'
'I hope so.' Hermione said as she looked at Isla.
'Have you contacted Lucius?' Ginny asked.
'No.' She replied. 'I haven't seen him all week; he's obviously not bothered with us.'
'You should contact him Hermione.' Ginny said not believing her own words.
'No need.' A deep voice said from behind them.
