I woke up to the others laughing loudly. My headache was pretty faint today. I went and had a quick breakfast with them and then headed off to work.

I met with Weasley who shifted uncontrollably multiple times about what happened last night.

When I was about to leave he brought it up.

"I'm sorry about last night." He blurted.

I gave him a small smile, "It's fine. You know how girls can be, so dramatic. But don't worry me and the lovely Pansy are fine."

He smiled brightly and I nodded before leaving.

I had almost forgotten what my new job was but quickly remembered as I looked at the pile of letters on my desk. I sighed and got to work.

When lunch came around I was about halfway done. I started on the next pile when there was a loud knock knock knock on one of the walls. I turned around and saw Weasley standing there. I gave him a confused look.

"Have you eaten yet?" He asked me.

I shook my head, "No. I usually don't."

Weasley smiled, "Alright get up. Be careful of your chair though." He laughed lightly and I smiled, "You are coming to lunch with me."

I sighed but also grabbed my stuff.

Weasley led me to a small Wizarding restaurant. I gave a small smile. I doubt they would even let me walk inside, well I guess I'll let him figure that out.

I stepped inside and waited to be asked to leave but it didn't happen. I sat down at a table with Weasley and Granger.

"Malfoy." She said kindly.

I gave her a small smile, "Granger. Weasley says you made the soup that he brought last night, it was amazing. Thank you."

She looked shocked and so did Weasley but I just smiled and they did too.

"Of course Malfoy."

The waiter soon came to the table and took our order. When he looked at me his face turned into disgust. I just smiled lightly.

"What do you want? Death eater." He asked me and I just continued to smile.

"I'll have a salad please. Thank you."

Weasley and Granger glared at the guy but didn't say anything.

When our food came I cast a spell over mine and it took out all the 'extra ingredients' that I didn't ask for. I put another spell so no one could see it and threw it into the garbage.

I then enjoyed my food.

"What do you do again Malfoy?" Granger asked me.

"I work in the mailroom. It's my parole. And you?" I gave a small smile.

"I'm a healer."

I tried to act calm but I could feel my eyes light up. I could also feel the pit in my heart when I remembered I wouldn't be able to work there.

"Oh. You are probably amazing at your work. Is it a good job?"

Granger smiled, "Yeah it's wonderful."

I smiled at her.

"Your parole is over in a year right?" Weasley asked me.

I nodded.

"So what job are you going to transfer to after it ends?" He asked me. They both had bright eyes.

"I'm not sure. I doubt I will ever get a job once parole is over."

They're eyes dropped and I looked back at my food.
