Chapter-18
The visit
Hermione had been in the hospital, studying the case of Elisa Mount. She is a ten year old girl and as reported by her mother, was constantly vomiting everything she ate. She was on the second paragraph when Ron burst into her room. She had planned to stay angry with her husband for a week at least but when she saw his panicked face, she forgot the quarrel they had had that morning and stood up to meet him half way.
"What happened, Ron?" She asked worriedly as he sat on the chair and she stood beside him but he stayed quiet, just staring at the parchment in front him blankly. She tried again, gently this time "Ron. What happened?" and settled in his lap, stroking his cheeks and making him look into her eyes.
He just shook his head. His eyes were so sad and her heart went for him.
"Tell me." She murmured. Half an hour had elapsed since he had left for Harry's house. What could go wrong in half an hour? Finally Ron started, his hand on her's.
"I entered their house and called them. When no one answered, I just walked into their room. They were not there and the bathroom was open. I had never thought that-. Hermione they were naked and that's not why I am shaken. Draco accused me of fucking him. He accused me of betraying him. He said that I promised him a job if he let me fuck him and did not fulfil my promise. He says that he apologised to me and I did not listen to him, that I gave him cigarette burns. He says that he has hidden this secret from Harry because he did not want to lose Harry, because I am Harry's best friend. He says that I, along with you and someone else did something and that he begged me to help him but I abused him. Who could it be? He is still in trauma and I don't understand how he tolerated my presence of be was... was abused my me." Ron was staring at her with wide and concerned eyes.
Hermione just stared at Ron, shocked and speechless. With shaking legs, she stood up from his lap and walked towards her chair. If Draco thought that Ron had – had violated him and that she had been his partner in this crime, why had he never protested about their presence in Harry's life? Most importantly, how had he lived with it. She had been so rude and so cruel to him. She had never tried to question Draco's aloof attitude towards them. She had thought that he was prejudiced.
Why would he be prejudiced? He must have worked with halfbloods and muggleborns and even muggles. She had never questioned it. This very morning she had called him an animal.
Unable to stand anymore, she slumped on her chair, staring at Ron. Had she been so wrong? She is a healer, for god's sake?
That was the moment she started having flashbacks. He had always flinched when Ron had been in his vicinity. He had never had more than a couple of bites when they had had dinner together. He had never entered their home. He had never looked Ron and her in their eyes for long. He had always fidgeted when Hermione had snapped at him. She had never understood these signs.
All she could do was stare at Ron. She had called Draco an animal. What was she for snapping at a man who was in a mental trauma?
When had she become so prejudiced, so ignorant of other's pain?
"Hermione." Ron spoke worriedly and she blinked. Her cheeks felt wet and she realized that she was crying. "Are you all right?"
"Ron, all these years... I had been so mistaken. I had always thought that he was an asshole and that he was prejudiced towards us. I had never even imagined... He must have suffered a lot. We must visit him." Hermione got up, her voice breaking and Ron shook his head "He needs time, Hermione. We must wait for Harry to contact us."

Two days had elapsed since and Hermione had not got any floo call or owl from Harry. She was worried and guilty and just pathetic.
"It's enough Ron. I need to visit him. I need to- to just talk to him." She muttered after having lunch and Ron sighed "All right, I am coming with you."

A knock interrupted them and Draco wondered who would visit them. They had no visitors at all. It had to be Granger or weasley.
"Who is it?" He asked a soft reply reached their ears "Hermione and Ron. Are we, ah! disturbing something? We can just wait in the sitting room. Take as much time as you must." The woman spoke and Draco's eyebrows rose in surprise. Granger never spoke softly in his presence.
"Hermione. I asked Ron to stay away for some days. Draco is not comfortable and we have not spoken yet." Harry snarled and Draco's eyebrows rose higher. Harry was disturbed but he was never so disturbed. The fact that he had not risen up to even open the door was evidence that Harry had changed a lot. "Please leave. I will owl you when Draco is ready. You should have owled before arriving. This is no way to-" Draco interrupted because Harry was snarling which was not good. "Harry, it's fine. Calm down. Wait in the sitting room, Granger. We will be out in a couple of minutes."
"No rush." This time it was Wealsey and Draco trembled "Take your time." Draco did not reply to that.
Harry finally stood up and Draco looked at him "You must talk to them.. They are your friends."
"We must get you healed. It's already too late. I can not see you in pain any longer." Harry replied and Draco stared. This was the first time Harry had completely ignored his friends in favour of looking after Draco.
"I will just apply an ointment." Draco replied after clearing his throat and Harry looked at him "No. We must approach a healer. I just do not know any. Hermione has been handling my case forever."
"I have heard that she is good." Draco spoke and Harry cleared his throat. He was looking softly at Draco and Draco was glad that it was love he felt for Draco not pity. "You are not comfortable with her yet. We can take appointment of another healer."
"Do you trust her?" Draco asked and Harry nodded. "Will you remain with me during the check up?" Harry nodded again and Draco asked the last question "Will Weasley have to stay in the room as well?"
"Of course not, Draco." Harry spoke, wrapping Draco in his arms. "You will never have to do anything that gives you pain or tortures you. You can count on me. I will always give priority to your welfare."
Draco was not comfortable with either Weasley or Granger but she was better then an unknown healer who would lead Draco to a panic attack so he sighed wearily and spoke "Then, I think Granger will be best. She is professional and does not hurt any of her patients. I have heard that she is devoted to healing." Draco whispered and Harry nodded. He turned to pick his boxers but Harry stopped him "Wait. Just put on your trousers. Boxers will burn your hips."
Draco simply nodded and accioed his trousers before putting them on. After that Harry opened the door and led them to the sitting room. Granger and Weasley were sitting quietly and he ignored Weasley completely. He couldn't bear to look at the man at all.
Harry broke the uncomfortable silence and spoke "Hermione. I am sorry to snap at you and I apologise to ask for your services at such a short notice but I need you to come with me to check Draco up-"
"Honestly, Harry, when have I asked you to be formal with me?" Granger snapped at him and all of a sudden she was all professional and turned to speak to her husband "Please remain here Ron. We will return and then talk. Do not enter the room in any circumstances."
Weasley nodded and sat down, turning his melancholic eyes away from Draco.
"I presume that you will remain there during the check up, Harry." She asked Harry who was holding his hand tightly. Harry nodded and extended his hand towards his room "This way, towards my room please."
