It had been a week since Hermione moved out of the house in Eastern Hounslow. A week of staying locked in her bedroom in her new apartment. A week of having no one to talk to but an old stuffed rabbit. A week of eating nothing but junk food. How she hadn't gained any weight, she had no idea.

Hermione sat in her bed watching Star Wars Episode 1 The Phantom Menace, eating the best break up food there ever was- chocolate brownies.

"Annnnnd he dies. Of course he dies. The good guy always dies, it's the rules of movies." She muttered.

"So how soon can I move in?" Draco asked his new landlord as he handed back the signed papers.

"Whenever you want. Although I must warn you, your roommate, Harriet I think her name is, something like that anyway, she's been kind of depressed lately, bad break up and all so go easy on her. After all, you Slytherins aren't known for patience are you?" She smirked as she said the last part.

Draco was taken aback. How did she know?

"I'm not a muggle Malfoy, I'm a witch." She laughed at Draco's expression.

"......." Draco didn't know what to say.

"You really don't recognise me do you?" She shook her head at Draco.

"I uh..... I should but don't...." stammered Draco.

"Tracy Davis, your old house mate, did your charms homework for you cause you were too lazy to do it yourself." She laughed.

"Wait, really? Tracy Davis? Merlin I'm sorry I didn't recognise you! No ones seen you since the war." Draco stated.

"I decided a nice quiet life in the muggle world would suit me much better. Anyway, here's your key. Off you go, if you need anything just call." Tracy smiled as Draco left her office.

When he closed the door behind him, she sighed.

"Poor guys..... They have no idea what they're in for..... Tough, Mandy and I have shipped Dramione since 4th year, and I ain't giving up on them now." She muttered as she got back to her paperwork.

"Can't you let me mope about in peace?" Complained Hermione as her colleague, Rolf Scamander dragged her down into his grandfathers briefcase.

"Nope. You're spending too much time alone, and it was about time you had a damn shower and changed. Plus, Niffler junior has been born." Hermione jumped at this.

"Where are they?!" She practically shouted.

"Two rights, one left, third door on the left." Rolf laughed as Hermione ran off, following his directions until she found the niffler.

She raced through the case until she found the room that Tina usually had the creatures in when they had given birth.

Tina turned to look over her shoulder as Hermione ran into the room.

"Is it true?!" Hermione said excitedly. Tina laughed at her. "Yes dear, the niffler had her baby. Would you like to see?" Tina turned around completely revealing the bundle of blankets containing the baby niffler.

Hermione squeaked and ran forward to see the baby niffler. Tina gently placed the bundle of blankets in her arms.

"I figured this would cheer you up." Tin and Hermione turned round to see a smirking Rolf in the doorway.

"Goodness sake, you look like the spitting image of your father with that smirk." Tina laughed.

"And you look like you're way over a hundred when you grin like that." Rolf laughed.
