Perfect Two...

Chapter Twenty Five: A Murderer

February 2011

Hermione's hand reached the alarm from under the sheets, she turned it off, opening her eyes lazily, she yawned as she stared at the white ceiling, she took a deep breath then she left her bed, she gazed at the alarm clock, it was 7:04 am she huffed and walked to the bathroom, taking a shower, brushing her teeth, dried her hair and headed to her closet. She put on a white dress, fitting her perfectly, a black suit jacket and a black heels. She got her hair done, but a golden earnings, and a matched watch. She took her handbag after finishing with her makeup and left.
She arrived at the ministry of Magic at 8 am. She got the Daily Prophet, and headed to her office, she opened the door and sat behind her dark brown desk,

"Good Morning." Andy said smiling as she entered Hermione's office, Andy was Hermione's assistant,

"Morning Andy, please get me my coffee." Hermione said

"Okay," She said "It before I forget, here's the piles you asked Lenwood to get them for you." She said leaving the piles on her desk

"Oh, when did he bring them?"

"Few minutes ago, and don't forget your meeting with the minister."

"Okay Andy, you can go now." Hermione smiled, her eyes scaned the newspaper,
February 27th 2011, Sunday.

The minister of Magic Kingsley Shacklebolt: "Our world, is safe. We're working to get the Murder of the Muggles soon. Our Aurors are alert 24/7"

She read the news then left the papers aside, she took the piles Andy left on her desk and read them, she was working on a case.

"Come in." Hermione said when a knock came from outside

"Hermione," Andy said "There's someone wants to meet you."

"Who?" She said without looking at her still busy with the case in her hands

"He didn't say his name, but he said it's important."

"Okay let him in." still looking at the piles

"Sir, please.." She heard Andy's voice from outside "She wants to see you."

Hermione heard footsteps coming closer then stopped, "Hermione.. Jean.. Granger." She heard a voice. His voice, her eyes turned quickly to him. Draco Malfoy was standing there and Andy behind him

"Dr- Mr Malfoy.." Hermione stood up "Please sit down. Anything to drink?"

"Coffee, please." He answered

"You heard him, Andy, get him coffee, and mine Andy I asked for it an hour ago!" Hermione said

Andy covered her mouth with her hands when she finally remembered what she had forgotten. She nodded and quickly left closing the door behind her.
Hermione turned her gaze back to Draco who was sitting in her office, only the two of them. Hermione walked to sit on the other chair opposite Draco,
"Um.." She didn't know what to say a moment later the door swung open again, Andy came with their coffees and left.

Draco smirked "Do you.. Really thought that," he got to his feet walking the few steps to Hermione who stood up when Draco was close to her "I didn't know you?" he continued
Hermione stood there speechless, she could feel her heartbeats in her ears "Does it come to your brilliant mind," his fingers touched her cheek "that I.." his eyes checked her out "will forget you?" he chuckled "Look at you." He sat down and Hermione was frozen still "Your hair.. The way your style changed.. I bet something never changed in you." he smirked Hermione looked at him sharply then turned to sit on beind her desk "I'm not late, am I?"
