Nov 11th 2001

Hermione loft was filled with laughter and pre-drinking. Ginny, Angelina, Kate, Luna and Esmeralda. "Oh come on Ems tell me. Is he really good in bed? Does he make your does sink in to your body?" Ginny says with two drinks already in her system. Esmeralda and Angelina laugh. As Angelina is the only one know that Esmeralda is dating Fred. "Ginny. I am not. Telling you about my sex life. Trust me you don't want to know." Esmeralda says trying not to loose it.

"Oh boo. Is not like if I am asking how wide or big he is. Maybe few tricks you two might use. You know to try something new." Ginny says as Angelina can't stop laughing. Esmeralda just bites her lips. "So he is good in that department." Kate says and Hermione cuts them off. "Okay, Okay enough with asking Esmeralda about her boyfriend. She will tell us who he is when she is ready." Hermione says. "Exactly as well as Hermione telling us who is making her smile so much." Esmeralda says. "Okay ladies is time to go and party." Luna says. As all the ladies get up and go to Seamus Club.

In Ron's apartment Harry, George, Fred, Neville and Sam are getting ready. "Okay men who is ready to get drunk tonight." George says lifting up a bottle of Fire Whiskey. "Hell yeah!" Fred says. "Well please tell me. There is no striper or Ginny will heck me." Harry says. "Also Fred and George have girlfriends and I am sure they will hex us. If we did have one." Ron says. "Come on boys the night is young and we are young. Let's go party." Sam says. The boys start to go off to Seamus Club where they will meet Draco.

Draco is putting on his cologne and last touches on his hair. He gets Harry's gift. And heads off to the club. He still can't believe he is about hang around with a group of Gryffindor. Two who kicked his ass in fifth year. He chuckles in the irony now he will be drinking with them. As soon as he arrives he sees the group of men. "Hey Malfoy over here. Come on we are about to go in. Seamus got us a VIP room. So we don't get stalked by the press." Harry says. "Great. Here you go Potter I got you a little something. But I charmed it so you can't open it till after your wedding. I don't want these to drink it all." Draco says as Harry has no idea what he got.

The men walk in and are taken to their VIP section. When they walk in they see a group of woman dancing. "I thought you guys didn't invite ladies." Harry says to Ron. "I didn't. Sam?" Ron says looking at Sam as he shakes his head and walks in. "Excuse me ladies but this is a private party." Sam says as the ladies turn around and everyone is surprise. Fred is the first one to step into the room. "Hey babe. What are you doing here?" Fred says going to kiss Esmeralda. "I could ask you the same thing. We are here to celebrate Ginny. Why are you guys here?" Esmeralda says as she holds on to Fred.

In that moment Seamus walk in. "Hello my dear friends. How is the room? I got you guys the biggest VIP room. I have." Seamus says. "Seamus we didn't schedule the same room." Ginny says. "Oh I am sorry. I thought you two were going share your bachelor party together. I am so sorry mates." Seamus says. "Look I am okay sharing the room. If you are Gin." Harry says. Ginny smiles and nods. "So are we staying?" George says as he holds on to Angelina. "Yes we are staying." Ginny says. "Great I will send in a bottle of champagne for the miss understanding." Seamus says as he leaves.

Soon everyone has a glass of champagne and is cheering for Harry and Ginny. "So wait. Your dating my brother?" Ginny ask Esmeralda as she sees her sitting on Fred's lap. "Yes. Do you still want the information. You were asking about earlier." Esmeralda laughs and high fives Angelina. "NO! Hell no! No, No, No!" Ginny says covering her ears. "So you two are dating. Looks like it all worked out. I been trying set you two up for the pass year and you two just fell into each other's lap." Esmeralda says to Hermione and Draco. "More like his wand darling." Sam says as Harry and Ron shake their heads and Hermione and Draco blush. "More like my dragon." Draco whisper to Hermione's ear making her smile at him.

The party continues as the couples dance. Draco and Hermione are not shy to show their affection. For each other as Draco rarely let's Hermione away from his arms. As Hermione kisses Draco more then once. She is completely falling in love with him and is not afraid to let her friends see it. "You drive me crazy Hermione Granger." Draco whisper into her ear. As she dances with her back to his chest. "Good." Hermione says smiling wrapping her fingers in Draco's hand. That is holding her tight to his core.

"Do you two need a room?" Esmeralda jokes. "Maybe. Do you?" Draco says as Esmeralda and Fred are dancing chest to chest. "That's why I live alone mate. No one that can hear us." Fred says winking as Esmeralda just giggles and tells him something in his ear. "Hey Malfoy come over here. Let's see how much a Slytherin can drink." George says as they take Draco away. "Looks like the guys are warming up to Draco." Hermione says looking at Draco with her friends drink. "So how are things going with the Slytherin King." Angelina asks. "Is going good actually. We had a wonderful date on his boat and he really made it wonderful." Hermione says smiling. "I am glad to know Draco is dating you. I always knew you two were compatible." Esmeralda says. "Wait how do you know Malfoy?" Kate asks. "That is a story for another day. Now let's cheer for our beautiful future bride Ginny." Esmeralda says.

Hermione turns to look at Draco as he is heading to the the loo. "Ron! Aren't you going go with Draco to the loo." Hermione says smiling. "Why the blood hell does he have to come with me!? I am a big boy." Draco says "Oh I know you are. But Ron here said he wouldn't let you out his site tonight. That he would even go with you to the loo." Hermione says smiling and wrapping her self around Draco. "Naw we talked it out. He can go alone." Ron say. Draco leaves and Hermione goes back to dance with her friends.

The party goes till one in the morning and everyone goes in wizarding taxies. That Seamus provided for his very drunk customers. Draco ends up staying with Hermione that night. They both wake up to a knock in their door. "Hermione someone is knockings." Draco says in a deep voice. "You go open it. It might be a jealous fan." Hermione says kicking Draco's leg. Draco get's up unpleased and opens the door.

To see his mother. "Mother?" Draco says. "Hello Draco. Are you going let me in or not?" Narcissa says. Draco lets his mother in as Hermione is getting out of her room wearing Draco's dress shirt. "Who was it?... Oh mam. Um hi.. I mean good morning." Hermione stutters to see Narcissa Malfoy in her flat. "Good morning Hermione. I have brought you two some potions to help with the hang over. Is the newest line in MBLab products." Narcissa says handing them both a drink.

Draco groans "I can't believe your giving me my own company drink." Draco tells his mother. "Wait you own MBLab. Isn't there where Esmeralda is a partner or something? Is that how you two met?" Hermione asks. "Yes and no. Esmeralda just started with us after Edmund's parents passed and let her in their position. But Esme and I go few years back. But that is another story. You need get to work." Draco says. "I send an owl letting them know you be running late. So both you sit. That we are going have a nice breakfast together." Narcissa says going into Hermione's kitchen. Draco just looks at Hermione and kisses her forehead.
