Long after Hermione went to bed after her conversation with Draco, his statement about Aberforth not being dead yet kept her awake. There hadn't been much else spoken once he made the shocking claim that he believed there was still hope for the wizard she was responsible for having arrested. Realizing that perhaps he had said too much, Draco quickly finished the rest of his reheated meal. His guest simply sat in her chair unsure what to even say next. He cast spells to clean his empty plate and send it zooming back to its rightful place in the cupboard. With a nod of his head and a muttered "goodnight', he disappeared into his bedroom.
