Call Me Sir, Minister

Chapter 10

Draco had clearly wanted to tease her more last night, because he'd bathed her and put her to bed. The only touching he'd done was to cuddle her. This morning, she woke up more than a little frustrated. Instead of dwelling on it though, she got up, got dressed and headed outside to explore. It wasn't long before she found the lake and she knew she'd be spending time out here reading. Finally feeling refreshed and calm, she ventured back to the house, which she realized was a cabin and it wasn't nearly as big as she'd have suspected from Malfoy. Then again, not much of what she'd discovered went with the boy she'd grown up with. He was completely different.

Stepping into the house, she turned to close the door only to have arms wrap around her. "I wondered where you'd gone off to. Did you have fun?"

"I did."

He sighed. "Hermione, I know you're upset with me, but it was late and you needed sleep."

"Draco, just because I have a little side doesn't make me a child. I know very well how much sleep I can function and even thrive off of and it's a lot less than you likely assume. Don't forget that during the war I was the second most wanted person and not by much. I learned to survive on very little sleep so I could keep Harry safe. That hasn't just gone away. If you didn't want to fuck me, why bring me here?"

He stared at her for a moment before breaking into a grin. "There's my lioness. That's a side of you I haven't seen in quite a while. And to answer your question, I want it to be special. Now come eat. We have a busy day."

She frowned. "What are we doing?" She didn't comment on his answer. There was no point. He wanted to make her first time special and she appreciated that. She didn't really mind him just making love to her. It was already special because it was the man she loved, but she also knew Draco wanted to show her how she deserved to be treated. That both scared and excited her. Mostly she worried about what would happen if he decided one day that he didn't want her anymore. After all, he'd have set a high bar that no other man could reach.

"You'll see. I'm taking you out for the day though and you're going to relax." As he was talking, he'd led her to the dining room and pulled out a chair for her. There was a spread of food laid out that she couldn't be upset about. It all looked delicious and she realized she was indeed hungry. Adding food to her plate, she began to eat.

"So, how should I dress then? If you won't tell me where we're going, at least tell me what to wear."

He chuckled. "Just wear comfortable clothes. We'll change when the time comes." She frowned at him, but shrugged. He wasn't going to tell her, but at least it would be a fun adventure. She was fairly sure she'd love whatever he had planned for them. After breakfast, Draco charmed the dishes to wash themselves and headed upstairs to find Hermione in black joggers and one of his green tees that she had tied to help it fit her better. He chuckled, but got changed into gray joggers and a purple shirt. "Ready to go?" She nodded and he led her out and into the town.

When they stopped outside of a beautiful glass building, she read the sign. "Se Détendre Spa. You're taking me to the spa?"

"I am. I figured we could both do with some relaxing and you'll need it to get ready for what I have planned for tonight."

She gave him a suspicious look, but nodded. "Alright. Let's go then."

As they walked in, they were greeted by the receptionist. "Ah, Mr. Malfoy. Welcome back to Vosges. This must be the lovely young woman you told me about. Welcome to Vosges and to Se Détendre Spa. I'm Camille and Mr. Malfoy has asked that I show you our services and allow you to choose what sounds most appealing to you. Your couples massage will be in 3 hours, so you have plenty of time."
