Sorry for the cliff-hanger-tactics but admit that you like it :) Here is another one for you. The next chapter is the epilogue. Joga
Chapter Seventeen
Malfoy opened the door and… there she was standing, shivering and trembling, wrapped in a blanket.
\"Are you alright? I…\"
\"I am sorry, Draco.\" she managed to whisper.
\"Come in…\"
\"No ... I … I just … I wanted … I …\"
\"You are going nowhere.\" Said he firmly, taking her arm and pulling her into the room. \"Lie down, Hermione.\" Said he seating her on the bed. He went to the window to close the wooden curtains. Returning to the bed, he found Hermione still sitting where he had left her.
\"I will help you.\" He took the blanket. She was wearing silk underwear only. She held her hands close to herself as if clutching something in both fists.
\"Come, you need to go to bed. I will get you some tea.\" He picked the phone to call the kitchen. It was silent.
\"I\'ll go downstairs and bring you…\"
\"Don\'t leave me, please.\" She squeaked.
\"I shall be back shortly.\"
\"No, Draco, I need to tell you something first.\"
\"It can wait…\"
\"No, Draco. It can\'t. I have to apologise to you.\"
\"You don\'t have to.\"
\"Draco, I haven\'t been honest with you. Please forgive me. I cannot live knowing that I held it back from you. I know you wouldn\'t hurt me … .\"
\"Hermione, what are you talking about?\" asked a totally confused Draco.
\"About myself.\" She drew a deep breath and said: \"I am not who you think I am.\"
\"You are Hermione Bennet. The girl who makes me giddy when I look at her. The most wonderful woman on this planet who makes me a happy man.\"
\"The problem is I\'m not that person.\"
\"What are you talking about? You need rest. We\'ll talk after you get some sleep.\"
\"Draco, listen to me. Before anything happens between you and me, there are two things I need to tell you. The first is the easy one, I apologise for everything I said a few hours back. The truth is that I love you and I want you and I can\'t live without you ...\"
\"Dearest, I love you. I am the one who is so sorry. Please forgive me for thinking all the evil things about you ...\"
\"Draco, I forgave you a long time ago ... \'
\"Herm ...\"
\"Before you say anything more, I want you to listen to what I am to say now. You may not want to see me again after this but I\'m too tired of living a lie.\"
\"What ...\"
\"Shhh. Take this.\" From underneath of the blanket she pulled out ... a wand.\"
\"What is this?\" asked he taken aback.
\"It\'s a wand, Draco and you know it. Take it.\" He obeyed.
\"Now, when I drink what is in this vial, you need to touch my forehead and then the tip of my nose with the wand and say: Disglamare and then Finite Incantatum. Ready?\"
\"Disglamare and then Finite Incantatum? But that will ...\"
\"Exactly. It\'s a double negation but I know what I\'m doing. Repeat what you are to do.\"
\"Touch your forehead and then the tip of your nose with the wand and say: Disglamare and then Finite Incantatium.\"
\"Ready?\"
\"Yes.\"
\"Watch out.\" She uncorked the vial and casting the last look on Draco, drank it all. In Draco\'s eyes Hermione began to shimmer. Mesmerised, he touched her forehead and then the tip of her nose with the wand and said: \"Disglamare\". Hermione became invisible. Shocked Draco almost forgot to whisper Finite Incantatum but when he did, before him sat ... Hermione Granger.
He was silent for a minute or saw and then stated:
\"You\'re alive.\"
