The Red Door

Chapter 5

A loud round of applause broke out when they stepped through the door and onto the Aurors floor. Standing in the front was Harry smiling at Hermione she practically jumped into his arms giving him a bone crushing hug the others had friends stepping up to welcome them back.

Michael ran forward pushing people out of the way to get to Seamus who launched himself at him as soon as he saw him bringing their lips together and wrapping his arms around his neck. Shocking quite a few people standing next to them who didn't know they were together or that Seamus was gay.

"Welcome back" came the deep voice of the Minister of Magic causing the crowd to quiet down and Draco to step sideways blocking Seamus and Michael who hadn't realised he had stepped into the room and were still making out.

"I hear great things" he said smiling at them but before anyone can respond he turned to the crowd in blue "Do you not have work to do" raising an eyebrow and turning to walk towards Morgana who was standing next to the middle of the five doors along the back wall.

"Dinner tonight at the burrow" whispered Harry as he turned to walk off with the crowd

"Ok sounds great" she said as she turned to walk to her new office

Draco had to shake Seamus' shoulder before he realised the room was now dispersed "Work now play later" said Draco in response to Seamus' pouty face while pulling him towards the back of the room to their offices.

She waited until all the pairs were standing in from of their doors.

Hermione and Draco had the middle office with Seamus and Alexis on their left and Gideon and Lena on the right with Jackson and Penelope next to them at one end and Kyron and Davina at the other end.

"OK together place a hand on your doors" said Morgana

"Get acquainted with your office, we meet at 1400 in the hippogriff room" said Dennis

Hermione looked at Draco with an excited smile raising her hand he gave her a wink before lifting his hand and together they placed their hands on the door. Unlike the red door this was an actual solid door and it swung open. Together they all stepped into the offices and shut the door behind them.

Amazing was the only word that came to mind. It was beautiful. Grey walls with a textured pattern dark hard wood floors and a high white ceiling.

They each had a large oak desk that faced each other with their names written in Gold ink along the side of the desk. On the left side of the room with a bookshelf full of books that covered the whole left wall, there was a window behind each boss office chair that was magical as you couldn't see it from outside the office and they were underground not at the beach like the window behind Draco's desk displayed or in the mountains where it was snowing as displayed behind Hermione's desk. A large fire place sat in the middle of the back wall with 2 book shelves that were filled with all the potions they had made over the last month. Various different coloured ones in different shaped bottles some tiny others a full hand size each one dose of whatever it was, or a nice explosion in the case of the bottle bombs.

There was a large double door size walk through on the right side that led to the bathroom on the left and their closet on the right. They had a three seater couch one side of the walkthrough facing their desks and a high back reading chair on the other side that was angled to face the door. Their bathroom had beautiful dark grey tiles and a large double shower with duel sinks that already had all the toiletries they could need. Thankfully the toilet was in a room of its own at the other end of the closet.

There was a large clock on the wall above the couch, Hermione couldn't believe it was already 12:30 they must have gotten a sleep in this morning.
