Chapter 29

Draco was climbing the walls, not knowing how he was going to last another week until he could see Harry again; let alone the next couple of years that he would have to pretend that they were still rivals. This would never work; it was insane to even try, doomed for failure; before it even started. The thoughts kept circling in his head as he paced; waiting for his father to come back with news of how the trial went. As far as he was concerned Harry was too good, sweet, brilliant, exceptional; to even grace the Wizarding World with his presence. He never even thought at the beginning of summer that he could like the Gryffindor; maybe be cordial to Harry but never like him at the level of insanity he was feeling now. To have this longing was unbearable, how did Severus ever handle it?

“Draco, please stop pacing…It is unacceptable behavior.” Lucius voice cut through his thoughts causing him to stop abruptly. “I figured you would like to come to the meeting to hear the news of the trial.”

“So I will finally be allowed to leave the confines of my bedroom?” Apprehension coloring his question, clearly his father was still upset with him.

Lucius sneered at his son, “Well that depends...” Draco tapped his foot in impatience, waiting for his father to finish. “If you can behave yourself and keep your outbursts to a minimum?”

“Fine…I should be able to manage, that compromise.” Draco said already on his way to the meeting room, his impatience showing in every step he took.

Everyone was already seated when Draco arrived, he didn’t feel like sitting; he wanted to continue his pacing, but knowing his father he would consider it ‘unacceptable behavior’. So he sat in his usual chair, leg bouncing; all his pent up anxiety not allowing him to simply sit still. Staring in the seat that Harry would sit; if he was also present.

“So Lucius you have kept everyone waiting long enough…what information do you have of the trial?” The Dark Lord said, even he looked ragged around the edges from the last week.

“Yes Luke…We are all waiting.” Aubrey said still unable to address his father in any other name. At least she wasn’t throwing anything at the Dark Lord, but it looked like she wanted too.

Lucius mouth tightened for a second before he addressed everyone. “Harry was proven innocent by…” The whole room let out a collective sigh of relief and Draco just barely stopped himself from jumping up in excitement; and would have if his father hadn’t stared at him. “Now this is the most interesting part, Dumbledore hung himself with this trial…”

Lucius gave everyone a smirk before finishing, “He completely lied to Harry, getting himself thrown out as Harry’s representative…Of course I volunteered my services as representation…”

“Well Luke it looks like you have some integrity somewhere in there…” Aubrey voiced her opinion cutting off his father.

“Now, now Heiress it is not time to belittle Lucius he has brought us wonderful news…” The Dark Lord said trying to keep the peace between the two.

Aubrey narrowed her eyes, and started playing with a glass of water as she testing the weight. “I promise Tom my throwing arm is still in great shape.” The Dark Lord flinched sitting back into his seat.

Draco was in a little better mood than he had been; this was one last fear he had for the Gryffindor. The problem was when thinking about Harry; he could get himself into more trouble without even trying than anyone else.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Albus Dumbledore was sitting in his trashed office, the one he destroyed after the mess the trial. All the plans that he had, now were for nothing, the boy now distrusted him; what was starting to become promising now looked horrible. It was all supposed to be so easy; Harry should have been convicted, sent to Azkaban. Then he would have come a week later releasing him in time to attend school. Albus would have been the hero in Harry’s eyes; the boy trusting everything he was told. But because of that Malfoy bastard, it all went to shit. His last hope was now in the form of the spy he had been grooming for the past four years, that is if the spy could make up for his previous mistakes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Harry thought the idea that Sirius came up with, the one that would give him some peace for a couple of hours; was the simplest plan that Sirius could have came up with. It didn’t involve some elaborate hoax, or painful prank; it relied on Remus to get Mrs. Weasley to take Ron for his school supplies this evening. What made it so perfect was that with Remus talking Mrs. Weasley into it he was able to make it sound like it made perfect sense. Basically stating that it was better if everyone went in smaller crowds for their school supplies; that larger crowds mean a larger target for Voldemort. So not only did it get rid of Ron for several hours but every Weasley as well. He never thought that Grimmauld Place could be so quite.

“Ok Harry you finally have me alone, what is going on…and you can’t tell me nothing, because I know better.” Hermione said in complete seriousness, the funny thing is even when Hermione is being stern and no-nonsense she could still be caring at the same time. He didn’t think anyone else could master it as well as she could.

“It’s hard to start, there is so much to tell you but I don’t know where to start…” Harry said looking down at the bedspread in Sirius’s room.

“Well that is easy…You start at the beginning of course…and don’t leave anything out…” Hermione said now eager at the prospect of learning a new mystery.

Harry looked at his best friend, the same friend who has been through everything for the last four years and nodded his head. She was right nothing could be explained properly unless he started at the beginning. “Can you believe something that is so outrageous that it makes fantasy become reality?”

“If there are facts that support the fantasy, then of course I can believe it.” Hermione said still interested despite the gravity in which he spoke.

So Harry told her almost everything that he had learned this summer the only thing he left out was the whole being Draco’s mate. He wasn’t comfortable with that situation yet to tell Hermione about it; for now that was enough. As he told his best friend everything Harry could see every new piece of information register across Hermione’s face. Like the fact that Tom wasn’t all bad, and the Malfoy’s are helpful would take her awhile to believe. The news that Sirius and Remus really shocked his friend, maybe even more than it had Harry; was almost comical to watch. The one piece of information that didn’t affect Hermione in anyway was that he was the great grandson of Gellert Grendelwald and she had tears in her eyes when Harry told her all his Grandmother Aubrey. After everything was said they both were very quiet, their breaths barely heard.

“So what do you think?” Harry said not wanting to break the peace but having to know if telling her was a mistake.

Hermione didn’t say anything at first but you could see her brain working the expression on her face changing as she thought of something new. Then finally, “You are right that is hard to believe, but knowing you, you’re not that type of person that could make up something that fantastical…” Hermione took a couple of deep breaths, “There are some ancestry tests we could do that will tell us if it is true you are the grandson of Grendelwald…” She stopped for a minute thinking, “We would have to wait till we get to Hogwarts though, I am sure that I can get the necessary ingredients there, also…” Hermione’s hands were opening and closing as if she was already itching to have a book in them, “I will have to research the Elves you are talking about…I will probably have to get a pass for the restricted section…Now you said that you are like a cousin to the house elves?”

This was what Harry was the most grateful of and the most scared of, once Hermione got something to research in her mind she wouldn’t stop till she found everything she could. If anyone could find the complete truth of everything that was going on it was Hermione, the scary part though was he would have to wake up from the grey area he had been living in all summer, face the truth, but he could gain his equilibrium back.

“Harry, are you listening to me?” Hermione said in complete exasperation.

“Yes…Sorry Mione…” Harry looked down for a minute feeling like a little child. “Ummm… I was told that my kind of Elves are related to house elves on the same level that Humans are related to chimpanzee’s…So a very distant relation.”

Hermione nodded, that was enough for her to begin her research, and then her facial expression changed which meant a new topic. “Don’t worry I won’t say anything, or let the Headmaster catch me… I don’t know if he is completely at fault, but I will find out…Plus there are other areas we will have to know for sure, the Lestrange’s were supposed to have tortured the Longbottom's…and a bunch of other areas that are too dark or grey for me to be completely comfortable with.” Then a whole new set of facial features changed on Hermione, but Harry knew these ones, they referred to a certain blond. “As for Malfoy, that is something I have to see in order to believe…and it will have to be drastic in order for me ever change my opinion of the pompous, arrogant, cruel, idiotic…”

“Please Hermione give him a chance he really was nice this summer and we became friends.” He said cutting Hermione off before she could really get started on Draco…Once she started she would not have quit.

“I will try my hardest, and I will keep my eyes open to see if there are any changes to his…behavior…” An understanding look passed over Hermione’s face as she gave him a hug.

A knock on the door interrupted the two Gryffindor’s from their current topic of how they would get the necessary ingredients for the ancestry test. Then the Heads of both Remus and Sirius popped in.

“Hey you two I thought I would warn you Ron just got back.” Sirius said, looking at Hermione to see how she took the news. Both of them groaned, at the annoying redhead knowing their couple of hours of peace they had found, was now over.

Remus spoke up, “So how did you take everything Hermione?”

“Oh’ it was wonderful…I mean it is a lot to take in…I believe it for the most part…But I was wondering if I could see you without your glamour’s?” For once Hermione started blushing, her curiosity going past her perception of what is proper.

“Maybe another time, we need to get out of this room for now.” Sirius gave Hermione a mischievous look. “Just remember you can only talk about the Elf stuff in this room, anywhere else is unsafe and when Harry gets to Hogwarts he can find a safe place there to talk.”

“Of cour…” Hermione was cut off by a voice from the hallway.

“Harry? Hermione? I know you two are in Sirius’s room…I have no idea why you have to run in there… but it is disgusting…” Ron shouted throughout the hallway coming close to Sirius’s door.

“You two stay here and I will direct him into another direction…then you two sneak out…” Sirius winked at the two grabbing Remus making him help with the idiot Ron.

Harry and Hermione looked at each other knowing that with Ron lingering about they would have to be careful this school year. At least in his opinion he had one friend that he could trust and that was going to help him make sense of the muck that had become his life.
