The bile rose in Ron's throat as he caught sight of Hermione tangled in Draco's embrace kissing him passionately. The girl he had loved for the better part of four years was in the arms of his sworn enemy. Over the summer he had tried to kiss Hermione once, just for her to push him away saying she didn't want to ruin their friendship. Yet, here she was, snogging a guy who had given her nothing but hell from the moment they met. His face grew hot and his blood pounded in his ears.
"What the fuck is going on here?!" Ron stomped over to them.
Hermione jumped her eyes growing as big as dinner plates. Draco ran his fingers through his hair, an arrogant smirk spread across his face as he kept an arm around her waist. "I don't think this is any of your business, Weasley." Hermione took a step in front of Draco wringing her hands nervously.
"Ron, go cool down and we'll talk about this later."
"To fuck we will!" Ron bellowed stepping closer. "So you can't give your best friend a shot, but you can give this arrogant fucking prick one?!"
Hermione grabbed Draco's arm as tried to push past her. "I can handle this. Just go, Draco, please."
"Draco?! Now you're calling this son of a fucking bitch Draco?! Are you fucking him too?!"
"That is none of your fucking business." Draco snarled.
Hermione blushed.
Ron looked from her to Draco and back. "So you are going to let Malfoy treat you like some common Knockturn Alley whore?!"
Draco shoved Hermione out of the way pinning Ron to the wall with his wand jabbed into his throat. "Don't you fucking dare." Draco whispered dangerously. "The only reason I haven't ripped out your throat and shoved it up your ass is because of Hermione." He lowered his wand his eyes throwing daggers into Ron's.
"So I'm to sit around and let you use her until you leave for something 'better'?" Ron looked up at him defiantly.
Draco raised his eyebrows crossing his arms. "Who said I had any intention of leaving?"
Ron's mouth hung open in disbelief, even Hermione was caught off guard by his last statement. "If you truly care about her safety you won't mention this to anyone until we say otherwise." Draco said nodding in Hermione's direction. Ron nodded with his mouth still agape. He turned back to Hermione cupping her face and giving her one last soft kiss before he made his way back to Slytherin Tower.
"Why?" Ron asked quietly as they made their way back towards Gryffindor Tower. Hermione shrugged. "It just happened."
"Why couldn't it be me?"
"Ronald, I wasn't looking or planning on being with anyone." She put her hand on his shoulder to stop him.
He pushed her hand away. "Have you gone completely mad? Have you forgotten who his father is? What are you going to do when his pure-blood Death Eater parents find out that he's messing around with a mudblood like you?"
Hermione hauled back and punched him square in the face. He stumbled into the wall his nose bleeding and eye already starting to puff up from the blow. Harry and Ginny had just come out of the portrait hole to see the fight. "What the fuck just happened?!" Harry said running towards them with Ginny trailing behind.
Hermione shook out her throbbing hand cutting her eyes at Ron. "Go on, Ron, tell them about how I'm a mudblood whore." She seethed.
Ron wiped his bloody nose on the back of his hand furious. "Well why don't you tell them about your fucking Death Eater boyfriend!" He shot back.
"Ron, come off of it!" Harry yelled. "I'm tired of hearing you go on about Malfoy and your paranoia that something is going on with Hermione."
"You weren't the one that caught her and Malfoy practically dry humping each other in the fucking hall!" Ron spat.
Ginny threw her hand over Ron's mouth. "This isn't the place or time to talk about this." She hissed. Harry froze his eyes locking on to Hermione's. She opened her mouth but no words came out. What could she say?
"Ginny is right. We'll talk about this tonight when we can all be alone. This can't get around." Harry turned on his heel and crawled back through the portrait hole. Ron stomped behind him refusing to look at Hermione. Ginny grabbed her hand giving it a squeeze. "Everything will be okay." She whispered.

The common room had become uncomfortably quiet as the last of the Gryffindors ascended the staircase to their beds. Hermione was curled up in the corner of one of the love seats with her nose buried in a book. Although, she was using it more for camouflage than actual reading material. Ron sat at the other end looking into the fire mumbling under his breath. Harry plopped down next to her and pulled the book away from her face. His eyes were kind and gentle.
"Hermione, you know that him and his family are dangerous."
"That's what I've been telling her from the start." Ginny chimed in dragging a chair over.
Harry and Ron's heads snapped up to look at her. "You knew?!" Ron barked.
Ginny's face turned red. "In my defense, I didn't think anything would amount from it." Ron scowled at her.
Hermione pulled her knees up to her chest, pulling her new necklace out of her shirt, and absently played with the ring on it. Ginny reached over taking the ring from her fingers. "This is Malfoy's ring." She gasped. Harry's eyes popped open in shock. Ron crossed his arms. "What does that have to fucking do with anything?" He growled.
Ginny threw a piece of parchment at his head. "Are you really that dense? This isn't a fling." Ron cocked his head to the side.
Harry sighed. "Honestly Ron, even I know what that means."
"Will someone just spit it the fuck out?" Ron said agitated.
"We're serious. I think I love him." Hermione whispered.
Ron shot off of the love seat ready to have a screaming fit. Ginny flicked her wand silencing him. She smiled at Harry and began to drag Ron towards his dormitory. "I'll be upstairs if you need me." She said softly to Hermione. Once Ron and Ginny had disappeared Harry turned back to Hermione grabbing both of her hands and looking her in the eyes.
"You do understand that being a muggle-born getting cozy with a Death Eater's son is not in your best interest right?"
"He's not going to hurt me, Harry" she pulled her hands from him standing up. "If he was going to he would have already done it. You're not my father."
Harry stood up wrapping his arms tightly around her. "I'm not your father, but I do love you. You are the sister I never had. I'm going to worry about you constantly whether you like it or not. Just remind Malfoy that I've taken on the most powerful dark wizard of our time 4 times and lived to tell the tale. It would be a walk in the park to take him out."
Hermione pulled away laughing. "Thanks Harry."
He kissed the top of Hermione's head and gave her one last squeeze. "I need to go deal with Ron before Ginny kills him. You two need to be more careful. If the wrong people find out..." He trailed off his eyes looking down at the floor. "Night Hermione."
"Night." She whispered heading towards the girls dormitory.

A/N: Sorry this chapter is a bit shorter than usual. Everyone in my house is getting sick. I wanted to get an update out there before shit hits the fan and I end up having to nurse a Husbeast and two kiddos back to health.
On a side note, I haven't gotten any reviews on the last 2 chapters but a ridiculous amount of hits. I'd like to say I'm a 'writer' (I use this term loosely lol) that doesn't care if I get feedback, but that would be a lie. While I love to write, it worries me that people are only reading a chapter or 2 and think this fic is awful without telling me. If it keeps up this way I may end up pulling the story and rebooting it at a later date.
