Hey everyone! I'm back after what? A year long break or something? This is my first HP fanfic and I hope you enjoy. This takes place during the summer before their 7th year. I hope you enjoy.

Disclaimer- I do not own anything Harry Potterish. And this plot is based off of a Korean drama Princess Hour.

A stream of light hit a sleeping burnets face. She just laid there peacefully, not wanting to get up. She hated the mornings. Why couldn't she just sleep in. Or better yet, never ever have to get up? But unfortunately she had a job.

"Hermione, hurry up or you are going to be late!" Her mum yelled. Hermione replied with a groan but got up anyways.

After she was ready Hermione ran downstairs to get some breakfast. She was a little sad that her dad didn't cook a huge breakfast like he use to back in the days. Well back before him and her mum lost their jobs. Now they just got by with cheap cereal.

"My, my, my." Hermione's mum was reading the news paper. Correction, the Daily Prophet. She never fully understood why her mum wanted to read those inaccurate papers. Especially since she was a muggle. "These Malfoys just keep getting more famous by the day!" She looked over at Hermione with a smile on her face and continued, "I read in that Witch Weekly, that you never read, that they are practically one of the top families. Treated almost like royalty."

Hermione wasn't really listening to her mum. She just ate her cereal quickly. The Malfoys had made quite the 180. Well Hermione thought it was more of a 175 because she thought the still were very disrespectful to muggle borns. But despite that they have really changed after the War. It took a while, (and a lot of work) but people started to look up to them.

"See you later Mum." Hermione said as she ran out the door. Her boss would kill her if she was late.

Hermione was employed at Flourish and Blotts. It was a great deal because she got any books for 50% off. The owner was also kind enough to let her take home any books that were damaged and couldn't be put back on the shelves. Hermione thought she had a very good job.

But currently she wasn't thinking it was so great. After all since she ended up being late she had to mop the floors. But a job was a job and her family needed money.

Hermione was walking to the back to dump out the dirty water. That's when she noticed her co-worker unpacking some books. Oh how she wished she were the one with that job. She just wanted to feel the rough leather cover of the book. The smell of new pages. The crispness of the pages and the sound of stiff paper rubbing against each other as the reader turns it's pages.

She wasn't watching where she was going. She was caught up in her own daydreams. Hermione wondered what the new books was about. Was it interesting? Boring? Before she could think about it any further she had run into someone. This caused the bucket she was carrying to spill all over the ground. And all over the persons new white shoes.

Hermione didn't see the owners face. But she gasped and quickly dropped to the floor trying to clean the white shoes. "I'm sorry. I really am sorry." Hermione repeated only a thousand times.

Suddenly the owner of the white shoes slipped them off. He also hissed, "Just throw them away Granger." She knew exactly who it was without even needing to look up at his face. It was Draco Malfoy. "I wouldn't want them after someone like you has touched them."

Hermione looked up to glare at him but he was already leaving. Sock feet and all. "Stupid, arrogant, arse of a ferret!" She mumble. Hermione was just about to pick up the shoes and throw them away but some crazy-ferret-loving fan girl snatched them first. Really what is up with these girls?

"Honey, we just got a letter." Hermione's mum said entering their cramped living room. She handed her husband the letter. "Go on read it."

Like his wife told him to he read the letter. His expression showed shock at first but then changed into a huge grin. "You remember that ring my dad gave us?"

"You mean-" His wife was shocked.

He just smiled and said, "You have it right?"

"I-I thought you had it." As his wife said this their faces were both struck with horror.

I really hoped you enjoyed this. Don't forget to Review and Read the next chapter that is coming out soon. If you don't review you don't get to read the next one =)

Thanks
