She was in desperate need to find answers, so she did what she had to do and sneaked inside the slytherin common room.

She waited hours outside the passage waiting for someone to say the password, covered with Harry's invisibility mantle when finally two girls appeared.

Pansy Parkinson and Daphne Greengrass.

A worst combo didn't exist

They were laughing about something and seemed pretty interested in the topic. From what she understood, a girl from the Hufflepuff house had failed to prepare a potion and had gotten suspended for the explosion she had caused.

Of course it had been the two of them who had thrown a wring ingredient inside it, making it blow up. It reminded her of Draco and of that time when they had done the same.

However the outcome to their situation had been totally different.

"Pansy I need to run, Blaise is waiting for him in my room"

She chuckled. Hermione silently snorted and rolled her eyes, disgusted

Poor Blaise, she thought

Then she ran, sneaking inside the dungeons behind the two vipers. While entering she observed the leather sofa's, the dark decor and the green flame in the fire pit. The Slytherin common room allegedly gave her chills.

She continued following them until she saw the girls dormitory and imagined the boy's one was supposedly on the opposite side of theirs. She took off and finally reached a long hallway with plenty of doors. 

This was going to take her forever. At once, her attention was unexpectedly caught by a particular one that wasn't fully closed. Of course, she decided to enter it and see for herself who it belonged to.

The room was a mess

Glass was shattered all over the floor, the lamp was broken, the trash can upside down and there was also a hole in the wall. Then she heard them. Moans. No, sobs. 

Someone was in there and he was crying

Hermione carefully stepped inside and suddenly all of her determination disappeared.

Draco Malfoy was sitting on the ground, with his head against the wall and was uncontrollably crying. She shouldn't be here. This was far too intimate and she shouldn't have violated his privacy by coming in here. God, what was wrong with her! She would simply talk to him tomorrow. Yeah, that sounded like a better plan. However just as she turned around to leave a loud noise interrupted. 

The door closed.

"Who's there?"

She cursed under her breath while the boy stood up and wiped his tears away from his eyes with the robe

"Blaise?"

Not seeing anyone he instinctively got his wand out. Malfoy never believed in coincidences or physical ghosts. He had probably also forgotten he had left the door opened and reasonably came to the conclusion someone must've entered.

Shit 

He pointed his wand directly at Hermione, casting the revealing charm

"Reveli-"

"Legilimens!"

She yelled in the deepest voice she could manage

 Everything went blank.

Immediately a lot of Draco's thoughts went through her head but she found nothing apart from one regarding her and a memory of his father. He had punched him in the face but hold on there was more. 

She dug deeper 

"Try to get near that mudblood again and watch as she dies slowly, there won't be a second time I am going to tell you this"

Draco was panting and was way too weak to reply

"Understood?"

She found herself, or rather her as Malfoy, with a terrifying expression in front of her. The ugly face of a crazy man. Lucius fucking Malfoy

Hermione couldn't begin to fathom the idea of what life would be like with an abusive parent. Her family had always loved her and gifted her with infinite love and affection. They were her anchor, her landmark, she looked up to them and they were those who she seemed comfort in. She had never feared them like she felt the boy did

Granger woke up from that kind of daydream and immediately took the mantle from the floor and rushed back in her room, giving one astroturfing glance in the direction of the blonde laying on the cold floor
