A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE

Once the two families had finished dinner, conversation filled the air; Dora was having a great time talking to Quinn about Hogwarts since they were the same age; Draco was telling Astrum how pretty her dress looked while she blushed continuously; and lastly there was Hermione, Harry and Ginny, in deep conversation about how Harry had saved the world.

"... But I couldn't have done it without the help of my two best friend's Ron and Hermione" he finished and Hermione felt a punch in the gut when she heard her and Ron's name being used in the same sentence so casually. The name Ronald Weasley was forbidden in this house, ever since Hermione had moved in with Draco after she started her job in MalfoyIndustries all those years ago as his PA. That was how they had met.

15th MARCH 2000

"I really don't know what I would do without you Hermione" Draco gushed as they walked out of the meeting room; files filling Hermione's arms and Draco walking just a few centimetres behind her.

"Me either" she teased and he raised his eyebrows before quickening his pace so he was walking beside her.

"I've never really asked you this before but; why did you come to this company? You had such a great place in the Ministry"

Hermione gulped, she knew this would be coming her way soon but not this soon. She hadn't told anyone about her break up with Ron, not even Harry and Ginny though she was sure Ron had probably told them; they had broken up eight months ago but it still felt like yesterday. She was happy that she had received this job; it gave her a new start with new people; and old people.

But she would have to tell Draco, not just because he was her boss but he was also now one of her best friends. If someone had walked up to her eight months ago and had said that she was going to be best friends with Draco Malfoy in eight months time she would have probably laughed her arse off before telling them to go to St Mungo's to have their brain checked out.

But now he was her friend, and she didn't want to break that friendship by telling him that she only came here to get away from Ron.

"I don't think you will want to know" she said, shifting the files in her arms slightly. He smirked and looked at her with devilish eyes. 

"Try me"

Hermione took a deep breath as they entered their office and she sat down at her chair, he lent against her desk casually, making her stomach flutter.

"Okay, well, you know I was seeing Ron after the war"

He nodded but didn't say anything, making it even more awkward.

"Well, it was last July and I had just got back from work when I heard creaking upstairs. I went to investigate and..." she sobbed as a lone tear stroked her cheek "...and, I saw him..." she sobbed again and wiped the tears from her eyes as she continued "...with another woman in our bedroom"

She hadn't realised that Draco had put his arms around her in a comforting fashion under she drew away and saw the mascara streaked stain on his snow white shirt. She was about to apologised when he pulled her in again, stroking her hair calmly as she cried into his shoulder. Once they had resumed their original positions Hermione tried to wipe the stain away but he caught her hand. He intertwined his fingers through hers and gazed into her chocolate brown eyes, melting under their gaze.
