Ch.21




"Sorry we had to go to the loo. Didn't we Colby." The woman said looking down lovingly at the boy holding her hand.

The little boy nodded.

"Colby be polite and introduce yourself to the guests." The woman said smiling softly at the little boy.

"Hi I'm Colby. It's nice to meet you all."

"Narcissa, Draco, Granger. I would like you to meet my son Colby and his mother Sephina."

Draco couldn't handle it anymore. He stood up abruptly, the chair making a harsh sound as it collided with the ground. "You are one sick man you know that! You have no right being here; introducing mother and me to your mistress and bastard child. Haven't you hurt my mother enough? What is wrong with you? Did Voldemort twist your mind that much?"

Hermione could feel all the pent up rage that Draco had been containing at his father just go and she knew that if she didn't do something, it wouldn't end well. For anyone. Especially not for the true innocent at the table. Hermione couldn't help but look at the young boy. It broke her heart to see the look on his face. His face was so frightened and sad. And sickly...

Hermione stood up and grabbed his hand. "I'm sorry but please excuse us a minute." Then she proceeded to drag him away. Before either of them knew it, they were in the men's room.

"Draco calm down, please."

"He just makes me furious Hermione."

"I know but..." Hermione pressed her lips against his. She kissed him furiously. It took a second for Draco to comprehend what she was trying to do but he caught on fast enough and kissed her with all he had. To make things easier Draco lifted Hermione up by her thighs and placed her on the counter never once breaking the kiss. Stepping between her thighs, he leaned even more into the kiss.

Hermione leaned against the mirror as she wrapped her legs around Draco's waist, pulling him even closer if that was possible and deepening their kiss.

Hermione threw her head back as Draco began to trail his kisses down.

When Draco got to the crook of Hermione's neck he couldn't help it. He licked it twice before biting down. He looked up when he heard a squeak coming from Hermione.

"Did that hurt?" He asked worried.

Hermione shook her head. "Look up." She hissed.

Draco did as she said. He looked into the mirror and saw that two men had just walked in.

"Oh hello." Draco said nonchalantly like as if the two men just hadn't seen them intensely snog in the men's room.

"We just got engaged yesterday." He said as if that explained everything.

One of the men got this look then nodded as if he thought it explained everything too. The other man though couldn't tear his eyes away from them or more specifically Hermione.

Draco looked down at Hermione then realized why the man was staring. In the midst of their tryst, the top three buttons of Hermione's silk red shirt, had come undone, revealing Hermione's red lace bra and plentiful of skin. And let's just say that Hermione's body had certain reactions to Draco's attentions.

Draco threw himself at Hermione so to hide her from the other man's eyes. "Your buttons." Draco whispered.

Hermione looked down and found that they had come undone. She blushed even redder as she redid them.

She looked up to find Draco's tie ascrew.

Draco almost jumped in shock when he felt Hermione fingering his tie. He looked down to find her undoing his tie. "What are you doing?"

"Your tie, it's messed up. I'm just fixing it."

Draco's heart skipped a beat. Even though they had just previously been snogging. Her doing his tie seemed even more intimate than anything else. Even compared to what they were doing just before they were interrupted.

"If you would excuse us." Hermione said as she daintily jumped off the counter. As if she'd done it thousands of times before.

Draco raised his brow as she made her way to the door. She made her way to the door and never once looked back. If she had, she would've seen that all three men were staring at her as she walked out.

"Sorry gentlemen, I've got to follow my fiancé."

"I hear ya." One of them said saluting him.

"Oh my god Draco, that was so embarrassing." Hermione burrowed her face into Draco's shirt when he walked out.

He couldn't help it, not anymore at least. He started to laugh. He couldn't believe that he had just made out with Hermione Granger in the men's room and then had been walked in on.

"Draco it isn't funny."

"Oh it is Hermione, it is."

Draco was still laughing when they reached their table. Then his smile slowly fell.

"Thank you Hermione." Narcissa said when Draco pulled out her chair.

"Um you're welcome Mrs. Mal- Narcissa!" Hermione quickly corrected herself.

But it didn't matter Lucius and Sephina both flinched much to Draco's satisfaction. Colby sat very still in his seat.

"Well I'm sure like everybody else here, I really want this painful evening just to be over. So what the blo- ugh. What was that for woman."

"Watch your tongue, there is a child present." Hermione gave him a stern look.

Draco glared at her. Hermione glared right back. "Fine."

Narcissa smiled into her drink. Really the two of them were too perfect for each other.

"What do you want because you always want something. You don't believe in pleasantries. And if you say you were just in the blo- ahh." Draco coughed. Hermione patted his arm. Draco mockingly glared at her.

"If you say you were just in the neighborhood, I may not be responsible for my actions."

"I know I've messed up as your father Draco."

Hermione couldn't help but snort. When she realized what she did, her hand flew to her mouth.

Draco leaned into her and hid his smile in her hair.

"Are you done with your outburst or should I not continue?"

"Lucius, she didn't mean that." Both Narcissa and Sephina said at the same time. The two of them looked at each other then away.

"This is just messed up." Draco whispered into Hermione's ear. Hermione nodded.

Poor Colby looked utterly confused and miserable.

"I don't know how else to say this but Draco."

"I'm sick. I'm going to die."

"Colby!" Sephina cried. "You're not going to die! Don't say that sweetheart." She said as she grabbed her son and held her close. "I won't let you."

"Mum..."

"What's wrong with him?" Draco asked.

Lucius looked up sharply. "Colby has BMD."

Hermione gave a gasp. "Oh god. How severe?"

"We need to do a transplant. But..."

"Neither you nor Sephina are a match." Hermione whispered.

Draco and Narcissa looked from Hermione to Lucius to Hermione again.

"What going on? Do you know what he's talking about?"

"Colby has a bone marrow disorder." Sephina said softly petting Colby's hair. "Lucius and I are both negative for his type. So is the ra- rest of my family." She choked at the end. She looked near tears. "We don't know what else to do. But there is a chance that..." She trailed off.

"Draco's a match." Hermione finished.

"Yes." Lucius said.

"What about me?" Draco asked. "What does she mean Hermione?"

"Draco, Colby has a disease. One that is potentially fatal. And if a donation of bone marrow is needed, well Colby's is most definitely a fatal disease."

"And I may be a potential donor."

"Yes, you may be Colby's last chance."

"You're kidding me."

"No Draco, we are not." Lucius said.

"This is unbelievable. Unbelievably twisted."

"Draco be mature for once in your-"

"Do not finish that. Draco is a grown man. A grown, good, kind, loving, FAITHFUL man. I made sure of that." Narcissa said standing up. "If he had any more of you left in him, he would've left after calling you the bastard you are." She said glaring at him.

"I'm sorry but I think that, that's all we can do tonight. We've had enough right now. Sephina, I'm sorry about Colby, truly. I know what it feels to fear that maybe today may be your last day to spend with your son. Be strong for him and yourself. We will get back to you as soon as possible."

!

"What am I supposed to do Hermione?" Draco paced.

"The right thing Draco, that's what you're supposed to do."

"He's a bloody git." Draco said referring to his father. "He has to spring this on me? Why?"

"Because his son is dying. Your half brother is DYING Draco."

"I hate him so much."

"Your father or Colby?'

"My father, both, I don't know! No of course my father. "

"Draco..."

"I wanted to take you to Venice so I could repropose to you and now we're in this bloody mess."

"Wait what?"

"I wanted to end this weekend with something romantic. It's all just-" Draco was interrupted though when Hermione kissed him.

"Thank you." She said as she pulled back.

"For what?"

"The thought. It's the thought that counts. Who knew Draco Malfoy was such a romantic?"

"You are not allowed to repeat this to Ginny or Luna."

"Why?"

"Because then they would realize that their significant other is a chump. You know?" Draco grinned.

Hermione rolled her eyes as she lightly hit him. "Well everyone knew you were full of yourself. Good to see some things will never change."

Draco grinned at her but his expression became somber again. "What'll happen if I'm negative?"

"I don't know Draco, do what you think you should do but... Draco remember when you once told me that you hated being an only child but it was probably for the best? And then I told you that you would've been a great brother but you wouldn't believe me."

"Of course, how could I forget. You threw a dishrag at me then nagged for hours. That was the longest detention I'd ever experienced."

"Draco focus."

"On what?"

"This is your chance to have a sibling. To become someone's role model or possibly in Colby's case, his savior. Your father is not the main character in this. He's an extra. A sperm donor if that helps."

"Actually it does."

"You have to try. He's too young. He hasn't had the chance to live to even go to Hogwarts!"

Draco sighed. "Okay, okay. I'll go to the hospital tomorrow."

"Thank you Draco."

"He's lucky that you were there tonight. And he doesn't even know it. And probably won't admit it ever."

"What are you talking about?"

"If you hadn't been there to kiss all my anger out. He would've left with a black eye, Colby or no Colby. That bastard hurt my mother. There's many things I'm willing to forgive. That I can't."

"I'm almost sorry I stopped you now." Hermione said as she put her arms around his neck.

"Not me." Draco said as he leaned down to kiss her. "When did you become so irresistible?"
