Bittersweet

‘I want you to tell me the truth.’

Hermione lay on her back, the ground still wet from the rain.

She couldn’t move.  He used a binding spell.

Above them the full moon shone, illuminating the roots that they collected for Professor Snape, for detention.

He was leisurely thrusting into her, and her eyes were blurred by tears.

‘Why can’t it be me.’  A tremor went up his body, and then he sighed, releasing his seed into her.  ‘If you start screaming, I’ll do you again.  So be a good girl and answer my questions.’

He’s crazy.  He’s absolutely crazy.

She felt him lift the silencing spell, and she took a deep breath, looking from him to the school, which they could see in the distance.

How come no one can see this?!  Where is everybody?

‘Hermione, I want to know why you chose Weasley.’  He was staring at her intently.

Is this a sick joke?  Is he serious?  He just raped me and wants to know why I date Ron?

‘I l-l-like him.’  She stammered, afraid he would hurt her again, ‘Y-you hate me.’

Malfoy hesitated, then gently caressed her arm.

‘But what if, hypothetically, I didn’t  hate you.’  He paused for a moment, ‘What if I wanted you the way he wants you.  What then?’

She gaped at him.

Malfoy was not confessing to her, right?

Shaking her head, she started to laugh.  A light, frightened giggle, ‘I don’t get it—‘

An explosion of pain.

Stunned, it took her several moments to realize that he had hit her.  He had hit her hard.

And now he was angry again.

She couldn’t help it.  She started to laugh, and then she began to cry, because this wasn’t supposed to happen.

Malfoy threw her on stomach, and cast the silencing spell.

And then he lifted her up, and pressed the tip of his dick against her anus.

Hissing he frantically shouted, ‘Is it funny, my feelings for you?  Do you think I want to do this with you?  I hate you!  I fucking hate you, because you make me want to do this to you all the time,’

He jerked her head back, pulling her hair and she sobbed soundlessly as he smashed his lips against hers in a bruising kiss, ‘I am out of my mind, and then you try to fuck him, right in front of me, who has more right to you.  I’m  the better man, I’m the one whose had you longer, and then—

He was mad, shaking her frantically, and she cried, but he did not stop, ‘and then you laugh at me!’

He pushed her away, and then began to slowly force his cock into her ass.

She frantically wriggled, trying to escape the awful burning pain.

‘Let this be a punishment.  I hope it hurts, because it wouldn’t even begin to equal the pain you cause me I would kill you, I think, just to keep you away form him.’

He sighed, satisfied that he was balls deep.

‘You’ll forget this, but you’re body won’t.  I hope every time you see him you feel the urge to flee because deep down, you’ll know that if you don’t, you’ll be punished.’

Malfoy was crying.  He knew she couldn’t see his face.

He was crying because it was so fucking unfair.  Everybody got what they wanted except for him.

And when he finished, and she lay whimpering silently in a ball, he felt something in him die.

It was those eyes that finally pushed him over the edge.  Wide, and full of fear.

It was like a weight had been taken away.

She will never love you.

It was a fact.  One of the unchangeable truths of this world.

But that doesn’t mean you can’t have her.

Gently, he petted the top of her head.

And what was the closest thing to love, but hate?

I'm wondering if I should make this a stand alone or make it a prequel to 'You Won't Know'.  Your thoughts people??

Adiva great comments.  It is supposed to be unhealthy.  But I don't see Hermione as pathetic in this story.  I sort of see her more as a normal teen, dealing with teen issues.  Probably the biggest plot hole is how she is consistently overwhelmed and then obliviated [I don't think that would happen in the canon, at least not more than once]. 

Her and Ron are def. that annoying love-dovey couple.  But it felt good to see him throw a few punches at Malfoy!  Malfoy was unravelling, but maybe he isn't anymore....something has sort of snapped in him...
