Two weeks to the Fundraiser.

Hermione stirred, the room still dark. She turned over and snuggled against the broad chest of the man sleeping peacefully beside her.

She could hear the soft beating of his heart, so content and relaxed.

The swosh of wind distracted her, and Hermione shot up.

A beautiful Persian cat materialized in the middle of her bedroom. She knew the Patronus.

Bashful, she clutched the sheet to her chest to cover up the naked bits.

This was Narcissa's Patronus, and even though physically she was not present, the respect for the noble lady remained the same.

Dear Hermione,

I humbly request your presence at the Manor at no later than one pm.

Please bring Mrs Ginny Potter with you.

There will be no need for Draco to tag along.

I hope you are well, dear.

The cat licked its paws and disappeared.

Draco was awake, barely, "What was that about?"

Hermione shrugged, "I have no idea."

Turning to him, her face creased with worry, "Er...should I be concerned?"

Laughing, Draco pulled her to him and peppered kisses across her face, "Well, I don't know, Granger, guess you will find out at one."

Turning over, he resumed his slumber. She stared at his back.

Her mind started to work overtime.

What could Narcissa possibly want? And she had told her to bring Ginny.

What the heck was going on?

Reaching over, Hermione grabbed her mobile and called her redheaded best friend.

Rings went by, and it finally connected.

"James Potter, put that down!" Ginny screamed into the phone.

Hermione held it away from her ear and stifled a laugh.

"Hello," came Ginny's exhausted voice.

"Hey Gin, are you busy this afternoon?" Hermione asked cheerfully.

"Unless you call running after a toddler busy, I'm free as a bird with its wings clipped," she answered hotly.

"I have plans to fake my kidnapping," Ginny added with a laugh.

Hermione laughed along with her.

"What's up, love?" Ginny asked back to her normal self.

"Narcissa wants both of us to come by the Malfoy Manor at one," Hermione told her.
