Dramione-A forbidden Love

Chapter 38

Draco's POV

I still stand in front of the closed door. My father was watching me. "Wanna hear it again? Filthy. Little. Mudblood." After every word Hermione screamed. That was enough! I just remembered 5 years ago, when these words came out of my mouth. Nobody deserves to be called that! I slamed the doors open and ran into the room, towards bellatrix. In my right eye corner I could see the stairs going downstairs to the Cells, where I thought I saw potter and weasley. I arrived at bellatrix and disarmed her. "You bitch ! Stop it now!" I shouted. I helped Hermione set up. She looked pale and wasn't right at all. I saw the word mudblood written on her arm. Great, as if she needed proof for what happened here. "Are you alright?" I asked her. She nodded. I looked around and saw the faces of my so called family. My father took his wand  and looked as if he was sorry. "Out of my way, Draco." But I didn't move. Nobody would harm Hermione when I was besides her. "Expelliarmus!" It shouted behind me and the wands of my father and mother flew out their hands.
Potter and weasly came the stairs up. Ron had the wands and ran to... Dobby?? Potter came to us and helped Hermione to stand up. In my confusion he took my wands and looked at me. I saw in his eyes his thank you for not leaving Hermione alone and That He would take care of her. I begged him to keep his promise. Please take care for her.
Maybe he wasn't that bad at all. Suddenly they all disapparated. Bellatrix through the knife and then looked at me. Shit. I may be in trouble now.

Hermione's POV

2 days were gone since we arrived at shell cottage. Dobby was dead. Murdered while saving Harry's and am if our lifes. I was getting better day by day and also luna and ollivander. I thought Harry was the one with the biggest hurt. Dobby was a friend of him. One of the closest he had. While I was laying in my bed I thought about everything that happened at draco's. He saved my life. I'm not sure if bellatrix dealt wanted to murder me. Maybe but not necessarily. However, he saved me to have more injuries. And I can't imagine how he was treated now at home. I was afraid for him and really thought about writing him another letter. But which owl should I take? Hedwig's gone too.
But I took parchment and a feather and started to write.

Draco. I will never forget what you did for me. I don't care how this will end, but what you did was big. It meant everything for me. It was brave. I am afraid what Bellatrix did to you after a left. I mean it is kind of your fault.
I think back there I saw a bit of the boy who once helped me look after Harry and ron in the train. Who kissed me because he felt it was the right thing to do. Who was always there protecting me. I feel terrible that I couldn't protect you. And I still love you and now I know again why.

Yeah that was good. And I will send it. I took pig and also the risk that  he would be too excited. For a second I thought about changing the message into a code but then I thought of the right thing would be written on the adress field nobody would read the message. So i thought and decided to write this:
To Draco Lucius Malfoy
Malfoy manor
UK
Important secret letter from the Hogwarts school of  witchcraft and wizardry, including the plans about a new inquaitatorial squad

I really hoped that this wasn't too much.

5 days later, exactly 1 day before we all wanted to leave the cottage, Bill brought a letter. "Hermione? Pig came with a letter." I jumped up and took it. I hurried to my room to read it alone.

To Hermione Jean Granger
Somewhere in the UK

Hermione, I still laugh about what you wrote on the letter! 😁 really the only thing funny here these days. After you three left I had to deal with my aunt and family. It was to obviously to deny it so I didn't. Thank God, nobody will tell the Dark lord, because they are too afraid what he will do to us. So I'm safe for now, although I was punished with staying in my room and no food and so on. Bellatrix isn't talking to me anymore and so is my father. But that's not a punishment.
You have to know that I would do that anytime again and I won't care about punishments. I love you and would die for you. Please end everything dark!
Draco
