Working On Us

Chapter Five

Hermione didn't know where to turn to; she couldn't go back to the Manor, Draco would know she was. She couldn't go to Harry's or Ron's that would be the first place he looked.

Hermione apperated into the front garden of her parent's house; it was pouring with rain and she pulled her black cloak around her. She heard the door open and turned around when hearing her mother's voice.

"Hermione; what are you doing here love? We didn't know you were coming. Come inside your get a cold standing in the rain." Mrs Granger said with a concern voice.

Hermione walked into the house and her mother helped her out of her cloak.

"Hermione dear; what's wrong?" Mrs Granger looked at her daughter worried.

Tears fell from Hermione's eyes and her mother pulled Hermione to her holding her and rocking her like a baby.

"Darling are you okay? Are you sick? Is it Draco?" Her mother pulled back and looked at Hermione.

Hermione whispered slowly so that only her mother could here.

"I found out….that…that...Draco's having an affair." Hermione broke into another fresh lot of tears.

Mrs Granger looked at her daughter and pulled her to her chest and whispered comforting words into her ear. Hermione's father hearing all the commotion walked into the hallway to see his wife holding his nearly twenty - six year old daughter who was crying her heart out.

"What's going on?" He asked apprehensively

"Hermione darling, go upstairs and change out of those clothes you're soaked through. You left some clothes here last month when you stayed over; there in your room. Go on darling; I'll put a fresh pot of tea on and we can talk about this." Mrs Granger said pushing her daughter up the stairs.

In the Kitchen Mrs Granger put on a fresh pot of tear like she promised. She could feel her Husband's eyes on her asking for questions of why their daughter had turned up at the door crying.

"She found out Draco is having an affair" Mrs Granger said softly knowing her Husband would blow up any second.

"Affair! He's having an affair!" Mr Granger had a temper that would scare Mrs. Weasley.

"Darling, let's let Hermione explain to us before we draw to any conclusions." Mrs Granger put her arm on her Husband forearm.

Hermione entered the kitchen looking defeated. Her eyes were red and the make up she had applied in the morning was now no where to be seen. She slowly sat at the table between her mother and father and looked down at the table.

"Hermione" Her father said slowly.

"I should have realised; the signs were all there. Right in front of me. I was so stupid. How did I not know?" Hermione's anger was starting to surface.

"What signs Hermione?" Her mother asked grabbing Hermione's hand to comfort her.

"He's been working late every night. He lied to me when I asked him where he went a few nights ago. He told me he was seeing Blaise I know he wasn't. This morning I was picking up the washing and his shirt…smelled of perfume and not my perfume Mum." Hermione had tears falling down her face. "Today we went to Diagon Alley and he took me to the book store and then left. He said he had to go to the bank. I followed him." Hermione took a deep breath and looked down at the table. "I saw him with another woman."

Hermione's father felt his heart break for his little girl. "Hermione I'm not saying you could be wrong but could it have been a relative he was meeting?"

"He has no female relative Dad. She kissed him on the cheek. He took hold of her hand and kissed it like he does with me when he takes me out."

Mrs Granger squeezes Hermione's hand and looked over to her husband.

"I'm Pregnant" Hermione whispered.
