At seven in the morning the three girls took the portkey they had reserved for themselves on Friday all the way to Salem. Lucius had watched Hermione on Sunday come back to pack her little beaded bag for the trip. Of course, he stayed locked away in his room but that wasn’t to say that he didn’t have other means of keeping an eye on her within the house. She was annoying, over dramatic and a target for trouble, plus…and this he would only admit to himself, but she awoke feelings in him he thought long dead. No, having her in the house any longer would be a mistake. It was Monday, he looked at the clock and sighed, it was eight in the morning and just knowing that she wasn’t coming back in the afternoon made his stomach hurt.
“Damn it” Lucius muttered as he walked over to her bedroom door. The scent of her perfume still hung around the door and he knew that if he were to open it he would be completely engulfed in her smell. But he wouldn’t because he didn’t care about her in the least, he rolled his eyes and snorted in a most un-Malfoy-like way because even in his own mind that sounded weak and made-up.
“Oh come on, man!” Severus snapped as he popped in to the hallway next to him “Just admit that you are falling for her and get over it. I swear, at the rate you’re going at now the first night after she actually moves out I’m going to find you wanking in her bed all wrapped up in her sheets and blankets!”
“That would never happen” Lucius sneered.
“Oh yes” Severus answered with a sneer of his own “You are out here sniffing her door like a mutt…I’m not even sure if Black would have fallen so low as to do that”
“Shut it!” Lucius growled “I don’t feel anything for her, nothing at all!”
“Then why have you been sulking around all weekend?” Severus asked “Draco and I both noticed the way you’ve been lurking in the potions lab, in her bedroom and watching Scorpius as if he’d just lost a mother”
“Well” Lucius finally turned away from the door and looked at his old friend “She did leave me here with a baby to take care of”
“She hasn’t left yet” Severus said “She’s on holiday. In America, not gone forever, she hasn’t gotten a letter accepting her to work under any Master in Russia yet…apologize to her and everything will get better”
“Apologize” Lucius spat the word out as if it were poison.
“Swallow your pride or you will be alone forever” Severus said before faded away and out of sight leaving the man to his thoughts.
~~~//~~~Two Weeks Later~~~//~~~
Lucius made the house-elves clean the house top to bottom. He put a new charm and locking system on the sitting room door to keep it shut, he put protection runes around her bedroom door and at the top of the stairs and now was waiting impatiently for her to come home. Two owls came for Hermione while he waited for her in the sitting room, he relieved the birds of their burdens and looked at the names inhaling sharply when he realized that they were a Potions Master and Mistress.
“Severus” Lucius called out and his old friend came through a nearby wall.
“Yes?” He asked.
“What do you know about these two individuals?” He held the notes out.
“Potions Master Alexander Kiploff” He said slowly “A Russian Master, I met him once when I had taken on an apprentice myself…you remember Katrina Greengrass right?” The blonde man shook his head “She graduated Hogwarts two years before Draco started, her parents refused to let her have any money until she decided to marry a pureblooded wizard and have children”
“Ah yes” Lucius said “She ended up getting her masters in Potions, thanks to you, then married a muggleborn, never got her in heritance but makes a nice living through the ministry anyway”
“Anyway” Severus continued “When I met Kiploff it was at a Potions Meeting with my young apprentice and he actually tried to pay me to allow him to sleep with her” Lucius looked horrified “Of course I said no and pointed out that we are to teach the apprentices, not sleep with them” He glared at the envelope “He told me that to that date he had had twelve female apprentices that went on to be very successful Mistresses and three that never made it to the end of the Apprenticeship. When I asked him why not he told me, bold as you can be, that a female apprentice of his is to not only learn what is expected but must fuck him when he wants and fuck whoever he chooses for her to fuck”
“He’s not getting an inch within my Hermione!” Lucius seethed “Stupid prick…attempting to even think about her like that!”
“The sick bastard even went as far as to tell me that he made good money from his friends using the young ladies” Severus added in “Then offered me his newest apprentice, a young lady that looked even younger than Miss Granger and terrified at the prospect of having to sleep with me…I, of course, didn’t take the offer”
“Good” Lucius said “Sick fuck…it will be a cold day in Hades before I allow that man to be near Hermione” He looked at the other envelope and sighed “What about Mistress Diana Dai?”
“Diana Dai” Severus heaved a great sigh “An American Potions Mistress and a woman that takes great stock in two things” He held out two fingers and Lucius nodded to show that he was paying attention “Beauty and her ability and willingness to bend rules and experiment”
“Doesn’t sound so bad” Lucius said, Severus heard the melancholy tone in the other mans voice and knew that he’d been hoping for something horrible that he would be able to use to make sure that Hermione didn’t study under her.
“You did not let me finish” Severus said and Lucius looked hopeful “Her ability and willingness for bend the rules and experiment…on her apprentices if they are smarter or more beautiful than she is”
“Have you seen her?” Lucius asked.
“Yes” Severus said “Loads of beauty charms were applied. What had probably been beautiful skin was now stretched and creased by the numerous amounts of beauty potions and lotions to look young” He thought for a moment “Dyed blonde hair, exaggerated black eyebrows, wide and huge red glistening lips, white teeth, charmed breasts to stay so far up on her chest they nearly touched her chin, a waist that had been charmed and squeezed in to a corset and was small enough that my hands would have fit around it perfectly” He snorted “Her ass was too high on her backside and when she pressed herself against me in an effort to gain some interest she nearly bruised me”
“So what you’re saying is that you’ve seen mountain trolls that are better looking?” Lucius asked with a grin
“Hagrid in a dress would look better” Severus answered and both men laughed “She hasn’t had as many successful apprentices but she does have a long list of apprentices that went to the hospitals in America with irreversible hexes, curses and potions-gone-wrong all over them”
“She tries to make them ugly” Lucius said more to himself than his ghostly friend.
“From what I have learned through idle gossip amongst the other Masters and Mistresses” Severus explained “Is that it never starts out that way. She only takes on pretty girls but if they get the attention of a wizard that she’s interested in then they must pay” He shuddered “I was told that she splashed a scalding spoonful of potion in to one girls eyes, that she had cast an Imperious curse on another girl and made her cut her own face with a silver knife and then squeeze lemon juice on the sores…then wouldn’t allow the girl to heal herself for days so the scars remained for good, that one is terrible but so far I think the worse one would be when she threw a spoonful of Bubotuber Pus in to a girls face”
“Oh god” Lucius put his hand over his mouth “What happened to her?”
“Severely disfigured” He answered the blonde man “Blinded because it hit her naked eyes and bald from where it touched her hair”
“Why has she not been arrested?!” Lucius asked angrily “Hermione can’t go there, she is far too beautiful!”
“She hasn’t been arrested because the girls all have memories of merely being clumsy” Severus answered “The Aurors in America are suspicious of her but she is innocent until proven guilty”
There was a noise from the front hallway and Lucius walked to the door of the sitting room and looked out seeing that Hermione was standing there looking around nervously. When her eyes landed on him he witnessed a small flush come to her cheeks and she quickly lowered her gaze. He cleared his throat and walked out of the sitting room that was currently empty. Her stuff was still in the little beaded bag and hung on her shoulder and from the way she was leaning to the side he realized that it must be heavier than when she had originally left. He held out his hand and motioned for the bag to which she gave him a grateful smile and handed it over. He attempted to not grunt under the weight of such a small looking bag. How the witch had not fallen over is a mere miracle in his eyes as he was having great difficulty holding it in both his hands.
“I’m back” Hermione announced unnecessarily.
“I see that” He smiled slightly and felt a slight pressure on his back, it was Draco who had been bitching at him ever since the witch had left in an uproar and swearing that she was moving out “Hermione…I’m sorry”
“What?” She looked at him shocked.
“I’m sorry” He said again “I was acting like a jerk. I don’t…I don’t want you to leave”
“We knew that this wouldn’t last forever” Hermione said moving away from him, she found that it was easier to just get this over and done with when she wasn’t looking in to his beautiful grey-blue eyes “We knew that I would leave. We live two different lives, have different hopes and aspirations…we can’t…couldn’t ever…we’ll be friends, that much has stayed the same with us”
“Please…” He said and Hermione heard his breath catch in his throat as he fought to get the words out correctly.
“I can’t be your companion for the rest of my life” Hermione said still with her back to him and tears filling her eyes. There was movement to her left and she looked down the hallway seeing Mimsy and Sleek standing in a corner watching them.
“Please…” He tried again.
“I can’t be the babysitter” She continued “I can’t hide away in my bedroom on the third floor, I am not a princess to be hidden away in a haunted manor home”
“Hermione…” He pressed.
“I have to learn” She said “To grow, to meet someone and fall in love and have a family…please, Lucius understand…”
“Please” He said again “Don’t leave me”
“I don’t want to hurt you” She said “But I don’t want us to fight anymore, I don’t want to tip-toe around because I’m scared that you’ll be angry and I don’t want you to feel as if you have to protect me all the time”
“But I like protecting you” He said brokenly “Please, don’t move out. Don’t go apprentice under Kiploff or Dai…you’ll regret it and I really don’t want to have to murder someone because they hurt you”
“How’d you…?” She asked turning back to him finally.
“The mail came in a little while ago” He held out the still sealed envelopes to her which she took and looked at in shocked awe “You want to apprentice under someone then I can have someone stay here and help you or we can find someone closer, you want to get married...” His voice trailed off and she nodded in understanding that he would never offer her that.
“Lucius…” She started.
“I can offer that to you” He finished, his eyes were lit with a strange longing light. It was almost as if he was just realizing that it was possible for him to say and mean those words “You want children…I am getting old but I think I can give you that and if not then we can adopt as many children as you want”
“What are you saying?” Hermione asked him with her eyes wide and filled with tears “…What are you truly saying?” She asked again in a whisper.
“I’m saying that I want you to…” He started to say while looking at her confidently.

A/N: I hope you liked this chapter. So, Lucius has more or less told her that he loves her…bloody hell he has practically asked her to be his wife. But what will she say and more than that, will he and/or Snape tell her about the Potions Master/Mistress?
