Hermione pranced down the stairs the next morning. Draco was such a gentleman and invited her to come to Malfoy manor for the day. Her father obviously had to agree first but he said it was fine since he had to get some work done.

Shortly after breakfast she said her goodbyes before flooing over to Malfoy manor where Draco stood there waiting.

''Pansy was here eight o' clock. Its eleven and your here. '', he said leaning on the door of frame.

''Well, I had to eat first and its summer, so I tend to lay in a bit. '', she said walking out of the floo room.

In the living room Pansy and Blaise were sitting laughing when Hermione entered the two fell silent.

''Guys, you both know Hermione. I invited her here because she is also part of the Tri- and Pureblood family now. '', said Draco.

''Hey,Gran-. . . I mean Hermione.'', said Blaise.

''Hallo, Blaise. '', Hermione greeted. She set her handbag on the nearest couch.

There was an awkward silence before Pansy cleared her throat, ''Hermione, will you forgive us for all the things we said and had done to you?''

She could see that Pansy really tried to get the elephant out of the room and she smiled, ''Yes. I will. ''

''Peace then? Friendship?'', asked Blaise putting his hand out for Hermione to shake it.

She smiled shaking it.

''So, Hermione, in Muggle life how does post work?'', asked Pansy curious.

''Well, in muggle life we have what we call a network so a person would be responsible for an area to deliver all the mail that has been addressed to that area. A person sending the post would get a stamp at a shop and it will be sent to the addressed area's collection point. Where the person would pick up the post and deliver it to its addressed owner.''

''Oh, isn't that complicated?''

''No. Its just a bit slower than Owl post. ''

''Makes sense. ''

She was continued to ask questions by Pansy and Blaise. Draco sat on the far side of the room looking at Hermione. Admiring her. She was beautiful, and she was smart, down to earth and a fighter.

''Why don't we go and sit in the garden?'', asked Draco after a while breaking into the conversation.

''We can. '', agreed Hermione and stood up. They made their way out of the leather-based living room down the hall where they ran into Narcissa. Her blonde hair was neatly tied in a bun and she was carrying a large pile of dusty books.

''Oh, afternoon you lot!'', she said loudly over the pile of books, almost bumping into Draco

''Mother! Get a house elf to help you. You can't see where you're going!'', scolded Draco.

''I'm just moving these books to the library down the hall, Draco. I do not need a house elf if I have two capable hands to do the work for me. '', she said.

''Whatever. '', stated Draco bored.

''Have fun!'', said Narcissa disappearing down the hallway.

Draco shook his head and continued to walk to the nearest door taking the four of them outside. Once outside they ignored the pool chairs and decided to sit on the edge of the pool. Their feet hovered above the water as they chatted.

''So, Blaise, where do you come from?'', asked Hermione.

''I was born in Venice, Italy but my father died shortly after my birth. My mother has remarried about eight to nine times I lost count at eight I think. That was when I was ten. Her newlywed husband would usually stay alive for a year and a half before he dies under mysterious circumstances. Leaving my mother with even more money. I didn't want to go home this summer; my mother marries again when Hogwarts starts again. ''

''That's ruff. So, do you stay here with Draco?''

''Yep. ''

''That's hard. I guess the relationship between you and your mother is strained?''

''It has been the last couple of years. '', he said. Out of the corner of her eye. Hermione saw Draco standing up moving out of view.

''At least you have friends. '', she said. As she said that she felt hands on her back. She was pushed forward into the water. The cool water consumed her legs. Soon she found herself splashing on the surface trying to get Draco.

Pansy and Blaise rolled with laugher and Hermione was disgusted, ''Do you think it's funny, Pansy?'', She asked.

She quickly pulled Pansy and she landed in the water Draco pushed Blaise in before taking of his shirt, kicking of his shoes and jumping in himself

''Oh, so you get dry clothes, but we don't, Bastard!''said Blaise.

Hermione had to admit a swim was nice with the handsome Draco. They all laughed at Blaise's comment. Draco splashed water into his face before ducking under the water.

After they took their refreshing dip Hermione and Pansy had to lie in the sun waiting for their clothes to dry. Blaise and Draco went to change.

''He's quite handsome. '', Hermione said after the boys left.

''Who Draco?'', asked Pansy before shaking her head, ''I like Blaise more that Draco. ''

''Do admit he is handsome. Or at least beautiful. ''

''Okay fine! He quite attractive and you will have great chemistry, but I am going for Blaise if you want to know!''

''Who said we want to be a couple? Who said I had a crush on him? '''

''Hermione, he has a crush on you! He told us before you arrived. He wants to get to know you. ''

''Oh. '', was her only response she had.

She left when her clothes were dry and when Draco stopped her asking her to go with him to Diagon Alley the next day she agrees hastily.

The manor was quiet when she returned, a good quiet. She found her father in the Potion hall. He had rubber gloves and his face was plagued with concentration.

''Hey, did you get any work done?''

''Ah, yes. I am busy with that work right now. How was your day?''

''Good, Draco has nice friends. ''

''I am glad you think so. ''

''What is this work that you are doing?'', she asked as he poured the potion into a vial. He handed her the vail.

''Here, drink. ''
