August 24th 2001

Two months go by and Hermione and Draco had started a very good friendship. They started owling each other. But Hermione got Draco to buy a cell phone. They would then talk on weekend for hours about their week and the book they were reading. Draco suggested it about a month ago. That they read a book together and share their thoughts about it. He got the idea when he was on the train from London to Italy. Hermione loved the idea because they would read all kind of books and she didn't even tell him it was called a book club.

Ginny was in town one day and met up with Hermione "So are you still talking to ferret face?" Ginny ask her while they are out for drinks. "Yes I am and he has actually changed from the Draco Malfoy. We knew back at school." Hermione says as Ginny looks at her. "Did you sleep with him already?" Ginny asks. "No! I did not. I slept with that guy from the gym remember. Why would you think I slept with Draco Malfoy?" Hermione asks her best friend. "Because the way your talking about him. Seems that he has you wrapped around his manly hood." Ginny says with a finger up twirling it. "Ginny Weasley stop it." Hermione says blushing. "Hey if the rumors are true he is quiet gifted in that area. So I wouldn't completely blame you if you just fell on to his broom stick one night." Ginny says now on purpose. 'What is it with you quidditch players and calling it a broom. Can we change the subject please." Hermione says "Sure Hermione... Were you meant to meet someone here today." Ginny says smiling looking over Hermione's shoulder.

Hermione looks behind her and sees Draco walking over to them. "How did he know where I was. He must of asked my intern." Hermione says still with her back to Ginny. Draco waves as he comes over to their table. "Hello there red. How is that Potter doing? Keeping him in line. I hope." Draco says going over to hug Ginny. "Hey lover boy. He is doing good. Going little crazy with work but hey. He is an Auror is in the job description." Ginny says as she also hugs Draco. Hermione is frozen and mouth open. "Oh hello Hermione. Sorry. You get a hug too." Draco says giving her a side hug. "...Y.. You... You two are friends?" Hermione asks confused. "Hermione we are both pro quidditch players. We met when Draco got signed." Ginny says. "Yeah me and red here are mates." Draco says. "How do you think I know about the rumors. Lover boy over here won't admit it to his game outside the field. But I have." Ginny says making Draco blush slightly.

Hermione is speechless. As Draco puts his hand on her shoulder. "Do you need a brown bag?" Draco says smiling devilishly. But Hermione hits him with the menu. "Will you stop hitting me with reading material woman. What did I do?" Draco asks. "You made me think you still disliked him. Making me feel bad for been friends with him." Hermione says to Ginny embarrassed. "We are friends. Aww is official we are mates. Now can I know about gym boy?" Draco ask as the waitress comes over. "Can I get you something handsome." the waitress ask Draco. As Hermione just huffs and rolls her eyes. "Hmm what are you having love? What should I get." Draco says looking at Hermione. "How about toilet water." Hermione spats. "Ah good choice. Vodka it is. A vodka on ice please." Draco says winking at the waitress.

The waitress comes back with Draco's drink and her number on the napkin. As soon as she is out of sight. Ginny and Draco turn to look at Hermione. "Go on tell him about gym boy." Ginny says encouraging Draco. "What happen to not having a memory." Hermione answers back as Draco shakes his head. "That rule only applies on men. Plus I am sure you told Ginny here. So why not tell me. No details if you don't want to. But how was it? Did he at least do his job right and make you finish?" Draco ask very calmly as Ginny giggles. "I hate both of you. I am not going into details and well yeah it was satisfying." Hermione says not looking at neither one of them. "Lier. If it had been good and I mean really good. He would of had to do his job right you be blushing right now. If he doesn't make you finish. You fucked him and he didn't do shit." Draco says. "I told you. Plus if he doesn't finish you up with his br... His wand. There are other ways he can make you finish." Ginny says.

As Hermione head is down on the table. "I say give him one more chance if he doesn't deliver move on. Not to be weird but you are an attractive woman Hermione. You have the right to finish." Draco says as he laugh with Ginny. "Oh she did give him more then one chance. And nothing." Ginny says putting her finger up then down. "Oh then fuck him. Well you have but move on Hermione. If a man can not last longer then a Queens song. Not worth the time." Draco says. "Come on Mione we are just giving you a hard time. Don't be mad." Ginny says pocking Hermione to look up. "Here I come bring a peace offering." Draco says handing Hermione a box of macaroons. She had mentioned them to him once in a letter and he actually remembered. She smiled and thank him. They all had dinner together and few drinks. Draco only had the one drink. After that he offered to take them home. Since they were both to drunk to apparat home. Draco does the mistake of turning on the radio. The two drunk witches start to since to Spice Girls making Draco laugh.

He takes Ginny home first and Harry is already waiting for her. "Draco did you get my fiancé drunk?" Harry asks him as he is helping her walk to their home. "No Potter she got herself drunk with Hermione. I just brought her back to you in one piece," Draco says as Harry looks at an asleep Hermione inside Draco's car. "Look mate. Hermione's place is far. Just leave her here. They have to talk wedding plans anyway. Before Ginny has to go to training." Harry says. Draco agrees and he goes pick up Hermione in his arm. He smells her perfume and takes it in. It was a very soothing classy perfume. He carries her to the house and Harry tells him where the guest bedroom is. "Don't be smart now Malfoy." Harry say as he struggles with a drunk Ginny. Draco gets Hermione to the bedroom and lays her to sleep. He takes off her heels and covers her up. He kisses her forehead when Hermione says something to him. "You smell nice Draco. I like your cologne or is it your natural body smell?" Hermione says almost completely asleep. "Goodnight Granger you smell good too." Draco says as he walks out the room.

As Draco comes outside the room he is scared by Harry. "Bloody hell Potter. You gave me a fright. She is fine." Draco says. "I am sure she is fine today. Will see tomorrow morning. Listen Draco they are announcing a heavy rain storm. I think is better if you stay the night." Harry tells Draco who looks out the window. Is already starting to rain hard. "Where did you hear that Potter?" Draco ask. "Is called the muggle news Malfoy." Harry says handing Draco a pillow and some covers. "As you can understand I can't have you sleeping with a drunk Hermione. Not that I don't trust you. But you two are single and she is drunk..." Harry says. "Potter. I will never do that. I like the woman I am with to be fully conscious." Draco says heading to the sofa.

Draco is still able smell Hermione's perfume in his shirt as he takes it off to go to sleep. He goes straight to sleep not the most comfortable couch or anything near his king size bed but it will do. Draco is awaken with the smell of coffee the next morning. So he heads to the kitchen to find Harry making coffee. "Good morning Potter." Draco says. "I hate you." Harry says as he is taking out eggs, bacon. and potatoes. "What did I do now?" Draco asks confused. "How the hell is your hair still look good after waking up?" Harry asks Draco whos silver blonde hair is messed up but he still looks good. "Is a gift. Need help cooking Potter?" Draco ask when he sees Harry struggling.

Draco moves Harry over and throws a kitchen cloth over his shoulder. Ginny comes down dragging her legs and stops in her track when she sees a shirtless Draco cooking. "Harry. You know I love you right. But this view is not bad." Ginny says making Draco burst out laughing. Second later Hermione comes down with her curly hair made a mess. "I know I am hung over but why do I hear Draco laughing." Hermione says walking in to the kitchen. Like Ginny. Hermione stops in her tracks to look at Draco. But she actually stares at Draco at his tone back, muscles in his arms and defined abs. She thinks no wonder woman throw themselves at him. "Mione... Mione... Hermione Granger!" Harry scream making Hermione jump. "Here this will help with your hang over." Harry says giving both ladies a potion.

Draco soon has Harry help him take the breakfast to the ladies. They all start to eat. "Who knew Draco Malfoy could cook." Hermione says looking over to Draco who is still shirtless. They smile at each other. "Can you go put on a shirt Malfoy." Harry says in a big brother voice. Draco gets up to get his shirt. Looking back to see Hermione fallowing him with her eyes. He looks away smiling and a fear starts to creak inside of him. Is he starting to have feelings for her. "Do you need a napkin Granger." Potter says. "Oh stop the big brother act Harry." Ginny says winking at Hermione.

Few hour later Draco takes Hermione back to her loft. But before she can go in Draco takes her hand. "Hermione. Would you like to go see a game. I mean when the season starts up again. I would really like for you to go." Draco says lock eyes with Hermione. She notice for the first time how truly handsome Draco Malfoy is and accepts the offer he kisses her cheek before leaving.
