Chapter 4

Hermione ran as fast as she could. She needed to get away. This couldn't be happening. She didn't want to believe it. Tears were pouring down her cheeks, more than they had when she found out her parents had died. This was much worse. She was scared for her life. Why her. She never did anything to anyone to deserve this. What was she going to do if he found out? What would he do? Her legs began to hurt and her running slowed down. Her heart was beating out of her chest. Finally, she reached her dorm. She enterd the common room and saw through her watery eyes, Draco sitting next tho the fire place reading. She backed against the wall, slid down to her bottom and clutched her legs to her chest.

Draco didn't notice any of this until he heard the portrait close shut. He looked up to find Hermione sitting on the floor crying into her arms. He immidiatey got up and ran over to her and placed his hands on her shoulders and tilted her head up so he could look into her eyes.

" Hermione, what happened. Did someone hurt you?" he asked with a worried look on his face.

" Nobody hurt me. I just found out some information that has changed my life drastically." she cried trying to catch her breath.

"Do you want to talk about it.? I'll understand if you need some time though." he asked calmly.

" No. I need to get this off my chest." she replied shakily

Draco helped her off the floor and to the couch where he held her firmly in his arms.

" You promise me you won't breathe a word of this to anyone. I would hate to see the reaction on peoples faces if they find out." she said quietly.

"Yes, I promise." he said softly. He knew whatever it was, it wasn't good.

" And promise you won't treat me any differently?" she asked nervously

"Yes." he replied.

"Ok." she said. "It all started when I found out that my parents had died" she said softly. "I recieved a letter from McGonagall, telling me that I was adopted." she took a deep breath.

"Does Harry and Ron know about this?" he asked nervously

"Yes, they do, but the next part they don't know and I don't want them to know unless its nesasary." she responded.

"Ok. Go ahead." he said with a scared tone

" Well, tonight I went to McGonagall to find out about my birth parents. They both attended Hogwarts "My mother was in Gryffindor and" she paused and swallowed. "My father was in Slyhterin."

"So that means your pureblood then, doesn't it?" he asked calmly. She nodded.

"What were their names?" he asked cautiously.

" My mother's name was Sara Baker. She died shortly after my first birthday" Hermione said as her eyes started to tear up.

"And your father, is he still alive?" he asked very quietly.

"Oh yes, very much" she replied as tears fell down her cheeks. Her body began to shake and Draco held her tighter. She looked up into his eyes. They were full of sorrow and fear, almost like he knew who she was going to say. She brought her lips to his ear and in a very quiet whisper, told him her fathers name. She fell into his chest, sobbing worse than before. She had finally admitted that he was her father. Draco held on to her as tight as he could, never wanting to let go of her. Saddness, horror and fear had over come his face. He was scared for her. He didn't know what to do. He sat there staring into space, not even noticing a tear was falling down his cheek.
