Make A Bad Choice

Chapter 3

Draco and hermoine stood there saying nothing just looking into each other's eyes. "Why are you here?" Draco asked hermoine. "Are you ok?" Hermoine asked in a low tone voice. "What?" Draco asked not understanding what hermoine just said. "I asked are you ok?"hermoine raised her voice a little and asked again." Why do you care!?" Draco snapped at her. Hermoine was shocked by the aggressiveness of his voice. Hermoine chooses to ignore it and said "I don't know I just do." Draco still not understanding what hermoine was trying to say, and responded to her." Look if your here for potter-" "They think I'm in the library!" Draco finally processing what hermoine was saying and looked her in the eyes. " Can you help me?" Hermoine thought for a moment "with what?" Draco sighed and began to speak." I'm a Malfoy, you know what Malfoy's are known to become. My father failed the dark lord and now I am to fix his mistake unwilling. I have to do this to protect my mother. He gave me a mission, I can't do it, I have to fix this vanishing cabinet in the room of hidden things and I have to kill, I can't kill him, I was ordered to kill Albus Dumbledore. Of course you won't help me, I understand why." Hermoine was shocked that Draco Malfoy_ the same Draco Malfoy who called her a dirty mudblood_ just opened up to her."Can I think about it? My choice can change alot!" Hermoine responded. Draco looked almost relieved. "Promise me even if you don't help you won't blow my cover." "I promise but Draco you don't have to kill." "I have to or he's gonna kill me" Draco said this like it wasn't a big deal. Hermoine again let her curiosity take over and asked"do you have the mark?" Draco looked down."yes I do" was all he said. "Let me see" "NO!" Draco shouted this. Hermoine just looked at him." Show me?" Draco pulled up his left sleeve to reveal the dark mark hermoine tried to touch it but draco pulled away. Draco looked at hermoine with pleading eyes." Please don't." For some reason hermoine couldn't help her self. "Please?" Was all she said. Draco moved his arm back over to hermoine and hermoine touched the mark gently." It's red you really didn't want this." Hermoine said to Draco. Hermoine decided something that surprised her. She took off her jacket leaving her in a tank top. Draco turned a shade of pink. "What are you doing?" Draco asked looking down. Hermoine extended her arm to Draco where a visible scar that read mudblood imprinted on her arm. Hermoine smiled at Draco and said " you know they are just scars they don't define who we are." Draco looked at the scar again and said simply said "who?" Hermoine looked away from Draco and responded. "It was in fourth year, I don't know what her name was but she was a deatheater. Draco said hermoines name and then when she was looking at him he said " your choice can change the war." Hermoine just smiled and said "I know I must go, Draco I will give you my choice tomorrow." Hermoine started to walk away but stopped when Draco called her name. " Yes" was what hermoine said. Draco's voice cracked" make the right choice?" Hermoine sighed and said "I don't know if I can!" Hermoine walked out of the laboratory and continued to walk to the griffndor common room.
