"Making ourselves at home?" Malfoy burst into the room not too long after Nott’s exit, but it was long enough for Hermione to concoct a thousand some scenarios of how to escape. The words he had said right before exiting were echoing endlessly in her mind. It’s about knowing when to lose a fight. He had said in his letter he wanted to earn Hermione’s trust, but there was no way to prove that he meant it. His advice could be part of the game they were all playing. But she thought over the memory Malfoy had accidentally revealed, Theodore Nott had been in love with Ginny Weasley. He and Draco had worked together to keep her safe. She thought about the first day at Nott Manor, when she saw Theo leaning over her friend’s body as if he cared for her. And in his note, he said  Red might convince her that he had a heart. Gods, she wanted to trust Ginny’s intuition, but how could she? She was a spy for the death eaters; Hermione had seen the memories.
