My Double Agent

Chapter 23 ~ A Mistake

Friday morning, November 28th. Hermione wakes up with a pounding headache. She looks down to see she has no clothes on, she quickly pulls the blanket up around her chest in horror. She turns to see Harry sleeping next to her, who also seems naked but the blanket is covering his lower half. "No. No. No. No." Hermione tried to think about the pervious night. A small screeching sound was causing her not to think right. She quickly gets up and gets dressed. She was really hoping that what she thinks happened, didn't and that he didn't see her dark mark.  She fond the horcrux lying on the ground, she picks it up and the entire night flashes into her mind. She throws the horcrux across the tent and falls into a chair crying. 

Harry wakes up from the sudden noise and looks over at Hermione, "Hermione?"

Hermione looks at him then looks away, "Please, put some clothes on."

"Clothes?" Harry looks down and yelps grabbing the blanket, "What the hell?!" He jumps up and gets dressed before walking back up to Hermione, "The bloody hell happened?!"

"We slept together last night Harry..."

Harry freezes in shock then chuckles, "No... we wouldn't... you're like my sister... I love Ginny."

"Harry." Hermione looks up at him in tears, "I don't think it was our choice."

"Well... I don't remember much.. It's like I..."

"Lost control?"

"Yeah!", Harry looked to the ground embarrassed. 

Hermione looked at him and walked up, "It's the Horcrux Harry, it's wanting us to do the wrong things."

He nods, "But why have us sleep together? That makes no sense... we have GOT to get rid of that thing."

Hermione nodded and grabbed the horcrux off the table where it landed, "No one is wearing it anymore."

Harry nodded as Hermione puts it into her purse. Harry then took a deep breath and looked around the tent. Hermione looks at him, "No one has to know what happened Harry."

He nods, "Yes they do... I love Ginny, I want to be honest with her. And plus, if we don't it going to eat away at us."

Hermione looks down at her ring and starts to cry again, he was right. She cheated on her husband. She would have to live with that. Harry walked up to her, "Hermione, Please don't cry. This wont change our friendship will it?"

"No... it wasn't our choice."

"Voldemort plays some sick twisted games.", Harry says furiously

Hermione froze. Voldemort. Did he know what happened, was he to tell Severus before her?! She had to talk to Severus badly. But she didn't know how. Harry could tell Hermione needed air, "Look, why don't we wait on going to Godric's Hallow for a bit. Take a breather?"

Hermione nods as Harry walks outside of the tent. Hermione sits back onto the bed and holds herself crying. Why would the Horcrux make them sleep together? Hermione then looked at her purse. She realized that it made perfect sense. Voldemort wanted the perfect Death Eaters, ones that came from Harry would be a jab at Harry himself. Voldemort played her. Was she pregnant now? Hermione grabs at her stomach worried. She looks over at the parchment and quill on the table and took a deep breath.

Hermione gets up and walks over to the table crying and starts writing.

My beloved Severus,

  I have betrayed you against my will. And I wish I could take it back, I wish I was stronger against the Horcrux which causes me to do such a terrible things. I would rather tell you this in person, but I need you to know what Voldemort did.
