Chapter 4!

Hermione woke early and was one of the first students in the Great Hall. She was anxious. She REALLY didn't want to go home the next morning. She had no choice.

'I have to go. I really don't want to. Draco was right..my bruises are fading." She thought sadly to herself, absentmindedly spreading marmalade over a peice of toast.

Students started milling in around her. Harry and Ron sat on either side of her.

"Good morning" she said smiling. "Did you boys finish your homework last night?"

"Yes Hermione. We did. Listen we are all sneaking into Hogsmeade tommorow night if you want to come."

"I won't be here."

"What?"

"Where are you going?

"Home. I'm leaving tommorow morning."

Ron and Harry again exchanged dark looks.

"I see. Even though we have school tommorow?" Harry asked, thinking she would consider that a factor to stay.

Hermione sighed. "Yes Harry, Even though there is school tommorow."

"Well maybe you just shouldn't go!" Ron suggested.

"I have to go Ron. Im not going to stay here just so I can break the rules and sneak into Hogsmeade tonight. Im sorry. I will be back on saturday night though." She assured them.

"Okay, well we just thought you'd like to come."

"Im sorry.."

She looked towards the Slytherin table and seen Draco looking at her in a peircing gaze.

'Well, things don't look overly happy over there." He thought to himself bitterly.

*********************************

Classes ended and Hermione made her way slowly back to her room.

She gave the password and dropped her book bag onto the floor. She sat on the couch and took a deep breath.

'Harry and Ron were acting oddly all day. I hope they don't suspect anything. I've kept it a secret for the past 3 years up 'till now. I know Draco is going to come straight over to me and start trying to talk me out of going. Whats going on with us anyway? Is it just a truce? Is it more than that? I know there is something there. I hate him. Just because I told him doesn't mean anything right?'

The door opened and he walked through. Just as Hermione had predicted he walked over to her, trying to tell her to make up a story and not go.

"I can't do that! I haven't ever, he will know something is up."

"Why do you let him rule over you? Scare you? Hurt you?" He asked angrily. "Why are you such a fucking pushover?"

Rage clouded Hermiones vision.

"Why? Because he can!! Why did I let YOU scare me? Hurt me? You were always behind me, calling me dirty names, telling me how useless and un-important I am. Did you think that that didn't hurt? Made me feel good? Well it DIDN'T!! You may not have been physically hurting me, but you were always there in my mind. I would try and conquer over your voice telling me I couldn't do it. It was ALWAYS in the back of my head. "Your just a useless mudblood." "Don't try and attempt that, you will just screw it up." "Your dirty and unimportant, you will never amount to anything in the future. Just because your so book smart." Your JUST as bad as he is!" She nearly screamed at him.

He jumped up.

"How DARE you? How dare you compare me to..him? I'm not half as bad as he is. I know I was immature, and I wanted to hurt you, because you are so damn smart, and you know everything. No one should beat me at anything. YOU DID!" His face was becoming red with his screaming. "DON'T DRAG UP OLD TIMES, THEY ARE DONE WITH. NEVER COMPARE ME TO THE MAN THAT HITS YOU AND RAPES YOU. I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU!! DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?? I'M TRYING TO LOOK OUT FOR YOU, AND YOU AREN'T LETTING ME!! HE'S RUINING YOU!!! YOU WILL NEVER FEEL COMPANIONSHIP, EVER, ALL BECAUSE OF HIM. EVEN WHEN HARRY OR RON TOUCH YOU, YOU STIFFEN. YOU DON'T NOTICE AS MUCH AS EVERYONE ELSE!! HES RUINING EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU HERMIONE!! DON'T EVER TELL ME THAT I AM LIKE HIM. I MADE YOU FEEL LIKE SHIT TO MAKE MYSELF FEEL BIGGER. HE HITS YOU!! RAPES YOU!!! MAYBE YOU LIKE IT ALL BECAUSE IT GIVES YOU A REASON TO FEEL SORRY FOR YOURSELF." Right after the words came out he regretted them. He took a deep breath and looked at the girl he was just screaming at.

She was sitting pressed back against the couch. Her face was pure agony. She was shaking and looked so upset, but she was holding in her tears.

He reached down to rub her shoulder, and apologize. Before the words could get out of his mouth, and as he reached for her, She flinched. Not out of pain, out of fear.

She whispered "No" out of terror and he felt his heart crack.

She was scared of him.

He just yelled and ranted in the poor girls face, and she was absolutely terrified.

He wanted to take it back.

Tell her how he didn't mean it.

Reassure her.

He took two steps back and she stood. Still staying far enough away from him. She shuffeled around the side of the couch and ran.

Ran up the stairs and into her room.

Draco dropped his head.

'What have I done?'

He slowly went up the staircase and knocked three times on her door.

She didn't answer.

"Hermione..Im sorry. So sorry okay? I didn't mean any of it! I was just angry that you could compare me to that...filth. Please don't stay in your room all night. I need to see you before you go...please."

No answer.

He walked down the hall to his room.

He entered and sat on his bed.

He reached up to itch his face and felt something wet.

'Was I crying? No..Malfoys don't cry.'

But he was, in fact, crying.

**********************************

Hermione listened to Draco yell his sorry's.

She wouldn't have it. She sat on the couch as he screamed into her face and it reminded her so terribly of Archie. Coming home drunk and screaming at her for even little things, like turning on a light. It wasn't the effects of the words, it was the way he had looked. His red face, looking as though he would love nothing more then to kill her on the spot. Working himself into a rage that would turn into something more.

Then when he reached for her. And she flinched. She actually watched his face drop. Watched the sorrowful tears start welling under his eyelids. She didn't know how to react. That was just as scary as the yelling.

So she fled to her room.

She needed someone to be there to reassure her that everything would be fine. But she wouldn't get that. She would stay in her room the rest of the night.

She needed to rest, she knew that she wouldn't be getting much sleep tommorow night. Between the beatings, the rapings, and trying to nurse herself, there was hardly time for sleep.

****************************

She woke early. By 6:30 she was already walking up the staircase to the headmasters office.

"Ah Miss. Granger. I expected to see you earlier then you needed to be here. Right this way."

She had taken this route many times before. She stood in front of the large fireplace.

"The connection will start at 6:45, you have 2 minutes from then to floo yourself to your fireplace at home. Saturday night at 6:00 the connection will also start. Only for 2 minutes. Would you like to be floo'd to my office or to your common room?" He asked her.

She thought about it for about 2 seconds, quickly replying with "My common room please, Sir."

"I had a feeling you would say that." he said, masking his face.

"It's time." Dumbledore said, as though announcing someones death.

Hermione grabbed the green powder and threw it into the fire. Shouting her destination.

***************************

Malfoys eyes popped open and he quickly cast a tempus.

"6:45" It read.

'Shit..missed her. I hope shes going to be okay.'

He laid in his bed for an hour, not falling back asleep. The worry in his heart was much too heavy. He got up for classes and mechanically began his day.

**************************

Hermione stepped quietly out of the fireplace. Wishing on her life that he was not awake yet.

She tiptoed to her room and laid on her bed. She didn't need to bring anything from school. Everything she needed for clothes were right here. She wouldn't just walk around in her school robes all day...If she could walk.

She sat on the edge of the bed.

She could hear him.

He was walking down the hall.

Her heart started beating rapidly.

Her bedroom door swung slowly open.

Something you would see in a horror movie.

In the shadows stood a tall, lean figure.

"Hello Hermione, glad to see your home." He said, with a slight laugh following his words.

"Hi" She whispered, watching him advance like a tiger stalking its prey.

He reached down and stroked a finger across her face. She tried very hard to supress her shudder, but to no avail.

He felt it.

"Are you disgusted, darling?" he asked, an evil sneer spread across his face.

He ducked and planted a kiss on her lips.

She didn't kiss him back.

He pulled back and looked down at her, obviously angry.

Without warning his fist went crashing into her face.

'Shit!!!! Now shes going to have a mark on her face!! What the FUCK was I thinking.'

He started punching her elsewhere. She tried not to make a sound through her bloody lips. He liked the sounds.

Her body was racked with pain. When his fist connected with her stomach she doubled over. He took her vulnerability into his hands and pushed her onto her side on the bed. He quickly freed himself from his pants. Not taking the time to actually take them off.

He lifted her robe onto her hips and mercilessly pushed his large member into her. She could feel herself stretch and tear. She honestly wasn't expecting this until tonight. He wasn't even drunk!

He began picking up speed and her whimpers began picking up. It hurt terribly, and she was not the slightest bit turned on. She probably never would be.

He grabbed her by the hair and started telling her how she is a dirty whore.

A slut.

Useless.

The tears were endlessly falling, she just wished he would hurry up.

Soon after she felt him climax and he pulled out and came all over her thigh.

He stood up and said "I expect you to be downstairs by 8." and with that he walked away.

She got up and ran to the bathroom. She fell to the floor at the toilet and heaved loudly into. She stayed there for a few minutes after. She stood up and immediatly shed her clothes and got into the shower. Washing herself vigourosly. Washing over and over. She needed to get him off of her.

Her skin was red and raw where it wasnt bruised. Her ribs hurt when she breathed. She had to take quick shallow breaths and knew that was something she never had to do before.

She got dressed, and slowly went down the stairs. Every movement was painful. She sat on the couch.

At 7:59 Archie entered the room, his hand behind his back. He seen her obediantly sitting there and his face cracked into a grin.

"I have to be at work for 8:45, I don't get off until 5:00. I will stop by the pub and be home at around 7:00. You are NOT to leave the house, phone anybody, or contact anyone in any way. Do you understand?"

She said nothing.

"Do. You. Understand.?" he said in a forced calm.

"Yes" she squeaked out.

"Go into the kitchen."

Hermione didn't understand that request at first. She slowly and carefully walked towards the kitchen.

"Get on the floor"

She sat upon the lamanate floor, he let the thing behind his back unravel.

Her eyes widened when she seen the Willow Switch.

"Take off your clothes."

She did.

"Now don't scream too loud" he said with a wicked grin.

His eyes travelled down her body. He looked at her with pure anger and started whipping her.

Anywhere.

Everywhere.

Hermione was cowering on the floor in the fetal position. He relentlessly whipped her, the switch biting into her flesh, stinging and smarting.

She screamed until about the 15th whip, by that time she felt as though she was going to pass out.

After about the 20th he stopped, seeing her fluttering on the edge of unconcsiousness. He whipped her one last time and watched her pass out on the floor. Covered and surrounded by her own blood.

A/n-I know it seems silly that they are sneaking into hogsmeade, but i needed to let them know about Hermione ogoing home!
