Author's Note:
Hi all! I am Very sorry for disappearing and reappearing suddenly. I'm quite impulsive... Anyway, I recently had this Idea, my version of the Granger Family Reunion with a much more independent Hermione. She doesn't need her husband to surprise her family. She herself is a surprise! read on and leave behind your reviews and suggestions!
The day started off nice, with a mug of hot chocolate and some pumpkin pastries. I sniffed my frothy cup ad took a deep swig. It was perfect. especially more so as my husband brewed it for me. I'm Hermione Granger, often known as the war heroine in the wizarding world, a part of the golden trio.
However, I had flourished as a writer in the muggle world with the Pseudonym Vela, Meaning Veiled or hidden in Latin. My husband was very supportive of my career choice, but I did not want his interference, so I created my own name.
Being the bestseller in England helped me become a partner in the chain of restaurants my husband opened in the muggle world. Leporem group of Restaurants, designed by Ginerva Zabini, was a huge hit in the muggle world. Especially when they came to know that the partners were Draco Malfoy and Vela.
Now I live as Hermione in the wizarding world and as Vela in the muggle one. Of course my friends are aware of my identity but I had made my agency sign in a contract saying they will never ask for my actual name unless they want to breach the deal.
Having magic also helped me as i turned into a different person every time the agency wanted to contact me. Who knew working in a huge potions agency will help me keep my facade...
In the wizarding world I work as the managing director of Malfoy Industries. And be fore I forget, I married the ferret... that rhymed... anyway. Though I was his wife, I had no privileges and that made me feel better. i had enough of sepcial treatment outside because of my role as the Brains in the Golden Trio.
Speaking of them, Ron had not thrown a hissy fit when I started dating Malfoy. He understood that we weren't meant to be and sidestepped. Harry on the other hand was quite suspicious of Draco, but warmed up to him over a talk about quidditch (boy and their games).
Now Harry has moved on with Luna and Ron with Pansy. Ginny, though quite heartbroken over Harry, found a soul mate in Blaise Zabini... Yes. The inter house unity Dumbledore wanted was finally achieved...
Back to the present, i was in my bed with the two things I love the most, My hot chocolate and my husband (yes in that order only), Athena, my elegant eagle owl flew in. it had a plain white envelope and a letter attached to it. The envelope had a cursive "G" frivolously written on it. I sighed. Them. My family.
Opening the letter led me into finding out the reason for the envelope
Dear Hermione,
How are you my dear? hope that Draco is not troubling you. As you can figure out from the envelope, there is a Granger Family reunion in a hotel next to your restaurant in Scotland. Hope both of you can come. Also, it falls on your Grandmother's birthday, who is turning 90. She has nit seen you for long. Please do come, at least for her sake. We both miss you. Hope you are free.
Henry and Ophelia Granger
I wanted to. I so badly wanted to see my grandmother. So I'm not going to let my cousins and aunt spoil it for me. I opened the Granger sealed letter and saw its contents
Good day
You are cordially invited to the Granger family reunion in the Ursa Patronus Hotel near the Leporem restaurant in Scotland. It starts on Friday evening with a small gathering, moves on to the next day with breakfast and lunch i n Leporem, ending with a formal ball on Saturday Night.
this invite is for:
Hermione Granger +4
love,
Henry and Ophelia Granger
Great. So I won't be alone rotting in the gathering. Also, this time it's being hosted by my parents so I cannot miss it for sure...Draco will be one of the four. While I was thinking about whom to take along with me to the party, I felt two hands sneak around my my waist. I felt butterfly kisses on my bare shoulder, which was when I realized that Draco's shirt, which I had been wearing, had stared to slip off a bit. i turned to see two mischievous silver eyes, slowly swirling with a darker shade, showing his want for me.
I smirked and got up, only to be pulled back onto the bed.
'Now where do you think you are going?' Draco Growled, his eyes completely turning dark.
'Shower. Wanna join?' I whispered near his ear and kissed right beneath his earlobe. That was his soft spot. He closed his eyes, suppressing a moan and dragged me to the shower.
TIME SKIP
Once we were out and ready to start the day, he asked me about the letter and the people I'm planning to call.
'How about Harry, Ginny and Blaise? They'll be able to manage in my family and will be able to keep all of us entertained' I replied. 'Good idea. i'll inform the three. So who are you today?' He asked. I had to meet a person for my next book from the agency. Draco usually makes me my polyjuice potion for each meeting.
'How about Crabbe? He looks dumb and is oafish. So they will be baffled to interact with someone like him to discuss the genre of next novel' i smirked. 'So what is your plan for the next one? Fantasy? Thriller? Romance? informative?' Draco inquired.
'I've tried almost every Genre. I think i'd like to write a philosophical book rather than a commercial' i replied thoughtfully. 'Do you think the fans will like it?' He asked. 'If they truely admire all my protoganist, they'll love what I've come up with' I smirked. That has become a habit one i started dating Draco. It seems quite long ago when we started dating...
So? Howzzat? read and review.. There are two flashbacks following this!
Preview:
"thank you" he whispered.
I turned back to see a regal looking Malfoy with his mask of indifference, but nothing could cover the slight blush dusted on his cheek. i gave him a smile ans said 'Anytime.' I swear he smiled. not much. just a tiny lift of the corners of his lips and it was gone as if it never existed in the first place.
