Chapter 03. Confusion.
Over the next days, Hermione
filled her hands of work, she spent the afternoons in the library, searching
for topics that could be useful in class, her reports and essays grew what
seemed kilometres, professor Snape glared at her homework and proceeded to
inform the girl that he had no time to read a surely bad book, the rest of the
teachers however made no objections and even congratulated her effort in
besting herself, no one knew what she was really trying to do. Ron and Harry
suspected something was wrong when she even offered to help other students with
their homework, but Hermione wasn’t telling them anything, she assured them
everything was fine and that she was only trying to take out the most she could
of their last year.
She wanted to forget, and
letting herself get lost in work made her stop
thinking about anything else. She stayed occupied all day, so at night she
would feel exhausted and wouldn’t have time to think, to remember. But each time she saw him in the Great Hall
or in their advanced potions class and Arithmancy,
the memories always came back, and in her effort of denying the abuse and
humiliation he perpetrated in her, she started to change it. Her mind focused
on the attraction she felt for Draco, and started to change the harsh words he
had said to her for other words, the ones that she would have liked to hear,
she imagined his touch a little more caring, destined to arouse her instead of
hurting, her body not forced to submit but her pleading for penetration, in
Hermione’s mind he even kissed her with passion.
The rational part of her brain
rebelled about this and insisted in bringing back the reality of what had
happened, to the extent that she couldn’t shut it up with books completely.
Then she started to dream, about him, his grey eyes, his hands all over her, and
she helpless and incapable of stopping him. Those dreams felt too real and
Hermione realized startled, that she actually woke up from them aroused. The
fantasies she used to have about Malfoy since last year suddenly returned to
plague her mind with a sick twist, the boy was not gentle anymore in them, he was more aggressive, completely dominant.
She felt shocked when she
finally accepted that she had been exited by the rough sex, and shame made its
way into her mind, but it was short lived as she convinced herself that any of
that was going to happen again, she would never, ever, be with another boy, no
one would touch her again, no one but him, because it was his fault she felt
the way she was, he was the one who awakened these feelings in her... these
needs.
Even when she knew that the
actual act had not been pleasant at the moment, she was now too aware of the
fact that some part of her had been aroused by it. She had panicked and had tried
to bury that part, getting nothing but a miserable feeling, after all that’s
what you’re supposed to feel when someone raped you right? Miserable
and used. She had felt that way, still did, but that couldn’t stop her
from wishing she had felt different.
He had completely fucked up her
mind, and now she was convinced that no other would have the right to be with
her, no one would be able to make her feel again. Only him.
As weeks passed by and November
was finishing, Hermione felt that he owned her in some sick way. She had put
herself a label of propriety and found she was unwilling to take it off. When December started she finally returned doing
her normal amount of work, and started to behave as if nothing had happened,
she even talked with Harry and Ron, telling them that she had gotten bad news
from home, one of her favourite aunts had got terribly sick and she had just
been too worried about her, that she had looked for some way of
distraction. They accepted her
explanation and life apparently went back to normal.
Slytherin was also back to
normal... at least that was what the rest of the school saw. Indoors the
ambiance was so dense you could cut it with a knife. Draco’s
supposed refusal of the Dark Mark had started a fight of power among the house.
Until now, the young Malfoy had been the leader of Slytherin, just because his
family was powerful and influential in every aspect of the political and social
wizarding society. They were an ancient, rich family,
and held many ways of making their enemies life’s a misery. Draco was the only
heir of the Malfoy’s pureblood line, and so he had entered school with a place
in the Slytherin line of power.
Now, that structure had been shaken. A good part of Slytherin were from families
that followed the Dark Lord, fully believing that the powerful wizard will win
the imminent war that was to come, and they’ll be the ones ruling both wizarding and muggle worlds. The Malfoys had been one of the most powerful wizards
supporting this vision, the fact that Draco had rejected servitude to the Dark
Lord was not only a treason to his family, but to all the pure blooded
tradition and, for some people, a complete idiocy.
Like Draco had predicted, once
his housemates had cooled themselves and had started to think things over, they
had realized that Malfoy had never actually said he had refused the dark mark,
he hadn’t make it to the initiation true, but it could have been for a large
number of reasons, one of them was cowardice, many still considered treason as
the most likely, but there had been no signal of Draco going to Dumbledore, or
changing sides openly. The slytherins were starting
to suspect that the young Malfoy planned something and then they realized that
the blond now knew the preferences of practically everyone of his housemates,
and none of them knew for certain in which side he was. Draco never gave any explanation for the
Halloween night, no one had seen him, and nobody knew what had happened. The Death Eater’s children had been told to
keep an eye on him, and that innerved them, even more so because Snape, who
they believed to be fully on the Dark side, acted as though nothing was
amiss. All the internal factions of
Slytherin were trying to make some sense of it all.
So, Draco was no more the house
leader, many of his housemates were fighting for that title, and all of them
were putting a lot of pressure to make him reveal what he was playing at. The boy had been extremely careful the last
few weeks, he was powerful and smart, but the slytherins
were the best at psychological wars, he was sure that if it hadn’t been for Crabbe and Goyle, he would have resided in the hospital
wing the majority of the month. It was
much to his advantage the fact that seventh year prefects got their private
bedrooms, without it he’ll have no place inside his house where he could be
safe. He spent most of his free time in there, avoiding the common room as much
as possible. Lucius
had written him again, but he neglected answering his father’s demand of an
explanation, there was no point in doing it, he didn’t have any kind of
explanation, so he opted for ignoring the letter and concentrating on surviving
his housemates.
Winter break was approaching and
Draco had no intention to return home for it, at least it’ll be quiet when all
the students get away. He had been
thinking about Granger too, had been observing her, hoping to get a clue as to
why anyone had yet jumped to him with the news that he’d been expelled. She was
acting a little out of character, it wasn’t as if she’d never before tried to
impress the teachers with her homework, but the things she had been presenting
resembled books more than simple reports. The boy could see that her friends
were worried, but still no accusations came his way. A few times he had caught her watching him
oddly, as though she was daydreaming, it had the blond intrigued, and he had
even hoped she was searching for him, but it didn’t happen and his curiosity
just grew. She should be hating and despising him, not
daydreaming in the middle of Potions and Arithmancy!
Lately, Draco had found himself
thinking about what had happened that Halloween night. He wasn’t feeling
guilty, the girl had been looking for it, poking her nose where no one had
called her, she had had the delusion that Draco wasn’t capable of inflicting
real harm on a human being, she hadn’t believed he
could join the Death Eaters. Well she was wrong! About the inflicting harm part
anyway, that was not the reason because he didn’t want to become a Death Eater,
he was quite capable of making an enemy suffer, but he was reticent to follow a
crazed man that wanted to murder half the wizarding
population, and have the rest as servants cowering before him, ready to dance
like fools for his entertainment.
The worst part was that he was
still convinced that the Dark Lord will win, despite everything Dumbledore
would manage to concoct; there simply was no one that matched the power of Voldemort. He didn’t understand why everybody watched
Potter as their saviour, the only thing the bastard had was an ungodly amount
of luck, and that wouldn’t help him when the Dark Lord finally got his complete
power back, which was going to happen soon if his father’s assurances were to
be believed. Well, the world will soon gain a fine resemblance to hell, Draco
would probably miss the big part, he’d rather be dead when the time comes,
maybe it was just cowardice on his part, but anyway, one bloody Gryffindor had
to come and insert herself in his plans. What had she been thinking anyway? It
was a stupid thing to do! And now it seemed like he wouldn’t be able to get her
out of his mind.
He was walking in the open
grounds near the school doors, thinking.
Maybe he’ll be better just forgetting it, he certainly had no desire to
bring the subject to light, nor was he was about to talk with the Gryffindor
about it. The girl didn’t want to accuse him, which was clear by now, so he
really didn’t have to worry about it.
He reached one of the walls at
one side of the castle and leaned his back against it, crossing his arms at his
chest. Maybe it’ll be better to leave that matter at peace, nothing could be
done about it anyway, he was not sorry for what he’d done, and it seemed like
Granger was doing just fine by herself... not that it mattered to him what she
did to deal with her problems, after all she was the one that had followed him,
she got what she asked for.
It hadn’t been pleasurable in
itself, he really hadn’t taken the time for enjoying the feel of her, he had acted fast, only trying to hurt. It had been the
first time he had forced someone, all the sex he’d had previously had been
consented to, he had had a few secret encounters at his home, and Pansy
Parkinson was his usual partner at Hogwarts since last year, but that was just
for nothing better being available, as his father had seen fit to inform the
parent’s of all the rest of the Slytherin girls that, Draco was to marry Pansy
and they better not put any troubles to it. The young Malfoy had no intention
to fulfil his father’s wishes, he didn’t like the girl at all, she was shallow, utterly boring and complained about
everything. If sex were to be taken in consideration, Blaise Zabini was much
better than her, but he had to go and fall in love with a Ravenclaw
bitch who was much too jealous for her own good.
It was a shame that he wouldn’t
have the chance to repeat the experience with Granger in another context, she
had a well done body, he never had thought of the bossy Gryffindor in that way,
but he had to admit it was not an unpleasant image, the texture of her skin had
been soft, and her breasts firm, he hadn’t kissed her but he imagined soft,
full lips, his tongue entering her mouth to explore... Now who was daydreaming?
He sighed, his life really
sucked at the time, and his sexual life was no better, he found himself
suddenly comparing Pansy with Granger. Draco had been no virgin the first time
he and Pansy came together, neither was she, the boy couldn’t imagine how that
was possible seeing the way she conducted herself in bed. Granger had been a virgin. That fact had been
nudging at him since that night. Maybe he did felt a little guilty, his father
had told him when he’d come of age to have sex, that he must make the first
time of a woman something special, and she’ll do anything for him afterwards. Lucius was no doubt thinking of a pureblooded
woman as potential partner for his son, but still the boy felt as if he had to
feel guilty over that fact.
“Draco!!”
A feminine high pitched voice
interrupted his slightly guilt ridden thoughts, and the blond had only time to
turn when he felt a slap on his left cheek. Indignation made its way around
shock, and Malfoy glared at the girl standing in front of him, snapping to her.
“What the hell is your problem
Parkinson?!”
“My problem you said? What about
yours? You have been acting as if I don’t exist at all!!”
Draco looked at her in
disbelief.
“What are you talking about? I
was under the impression it was YOU who wasn’t talking to ME!!”
“Oh! So you noticed! Then why
haven’t you come to ask me why?”
“Wha...?”
Draco made an effort to follow
the path of Pansy’s twisted thoughts, he said very carefully:
“I think the reason was pretty
obvious. You, and everyone faithful to the Dark Lord, are not taking well the
fact that I’m not already a Death Eater. Am I correct?”
“Yes.”
“Then why would I need to go
asking useless questions?” Draco wanted no more than to shake the girl to make
her neurons work.
“Oh, you are so full of yourself
Malfoy, didn’t you even think to apologise to me?”
Draco’s eyes
widened in surprise at this.
“What for? I didn’t do a thing to you!”
“No? How you think I’m looking
in front of everybody? My future husband doesn’t have the guts to bear the mark
of our Lord proudly! You were supposed to be the first
of our generation Draco!!”
The boy could feel a headache
coming his way.
“For Merlin’s
sake! Hold your horses Parkinson,
I’m not your future husband! I’m not even officially your boyfriend!”
“Oh please! When are you going
to accept the fact that we’re going to marry? Our parents have already settled
it!”
“No, they haven’t, there’s no
contract, and as I’m seventeen, by the wizarding law
I’m an adult now, and I have full responsibility of that matter.”
The girl huffed, it was not the
first time they discussed the subject, and she was running out of her original
complaints.
“Whatever, we can leave that for
now. The point is Draco that you’re not making a good impression where you have
to! What have you been thinking? Do you realize the position you have lost?”
“Yes, yes, I realize! It’s my
problem ok?”
“Why your
change of mind Draco? You don’t want to be on
the winning side?”
“Of course I want to! Look
Parkinson it’s not your business. Ok?”
The girl eyed him thoughtfully,
she was used to getting away with what she wanted, and she didn’t like being
left out of Draco’s plans, he was her fiancée,
whether he liked it or not, Pansy knew that when the time came, Draco would do
as his father tells him, and Malfoy senior wanted a bond with her family. The
blond girl had been studying her future husband since childhood, and so far she
had been satisfied with him, he was doing fairly well for his family name, now
was not the time to let it all crumble to pieces, just when the Dark Lord was
getting his power back. She decided to take a different approach.
“Look Draco, I’m pretty aware
that you are smart, and surely you’re plotting something to get advantage of
this situation that you created, but I really would be more at ease if I knew
for certain what you’re planning.”
‘Nothing really, I was just believing that I would be much better being
a ghost’ Draco thought to himself, he decided that a bit of distraction
could do Pansy some good. He let her get closer and started rubbing her arms.
“Look Pansy, it’s a bit
complicated, and I really want to finish the details a little more, do not worry about it, it’s going to be worth it.”
Draco managed to move with the
girl, now her back was against the wall and one of his hands moved to her hips,
while the other cupped her cheek, Pansy leaned into his touch, still
thoughtful.
“Oh please! Would it hurt so
much if you told me just a little bit?”
Pansy threw her arms around Draco’s neck and pulled his face closer to hers, their lips
almost touching.
“Not now, maybe later dear”
The boy moved his hand to Pansy’s
rear and started a circular motion, his other hand in the back of the girl’s
head; he leaned in a little, brushing her lips with his own.
“Not even a clue?”
“It’s not necessary.”
And he kissed her, a little
forcefully, Pansy didn’t like aggressive kisses, she liked them soft, almost
only the ghost of them, she tried to retreat to complain about it, but Draco
didn’t let her, he pushed a little more, his tongue entering her mouth, while
he imagined someone else’s lips.
“Ugh, go find a room you two!
Save us the view!”
Draco got out of his fantasies
at the sound of the well known voice and turned around. There were the so called golden trio, Weasley
seemed to be the one that spoke, a look of disgust on his face, the other two
were only blushing, but Granger seemed to pale a little too fast and was
looking at Pansy oddly. Malfoy couldn’t help smirking.
“What a wonderful idea! Come
Pansy, let’s find a place where no one interrupt us, and we don’t remind others
of their boring lives.”
He took the slytherin
girl by the waist, pulling their bodies together, all the while watching
Granger’s reaction. Potter made a noise of disgust and said:
“Hope you enjoy it Malfoy. While you can.”
“Oh, I certainly will Potter.”
Draco put on a feral smirk in his face; Pansy leaned into him and kissed the
juncture of his neck, almost purring. Draco saw Granger getting even paler; her
eyes were sending daggers at Parkinson.
‘Well, well, is that jealousy I see?’
Draco leaned in to Pansy’s
caress and Granger’s eyes seemed to flash, he smiled to himself and turned to
the castle’s entrance, almost carrying the girl at his side, not paying any
heed to the other boys.
‘She IS jealous. That’s interesting.’ He walked to the dungeons
thinking about it.
