Blackmailing a death eater…doesn't sound to smart.

Chapters 1

Hermione POV

I enter the smoky club, and start thinking about all the work I could be doing instead of being here. Like ancient runes or my transfigurations summer work. I really should have stayed home. I can't believe I got talked into this. Well, not talked more manipulated.

My 'friend' Jessica told me this whole sob story about her boyfriend cheating and how If I would just go for a quiet drink with her she would feel so much better.

"There's this new little pub down the road" she whined

"No"

"Just one drink?"

"No"

"If you were a real friend you would" that hurt. I finally look up from my book.

"That's not fair. I am a real friend. I just don't think going out drinking will solve anything. Now ice cream and a nice chick flick might? " I smile and try and sound encouraging.

All through this conversation Jessica has been stood up looking through my wardrobe, tutting mostly, while I lie on my bed making a start on reading ahead for the entire year. Generally I would be more careful about reading magical textbooks out in the open, with a muggle round. However, it's fine because unless my book has a picture of a celeb on the cover jess won't come near it.

"I don't like Ice cream! You'd know that if you EVER talked to me…." Jess suddenly bursts out. Then she sighs "sorry. Just upset" she replies sheepishly. "But it's kind of true. I mean you go off to this super boarding school for really smart people, which I'm not jealous of by the way. Then I don't hear from you until summer, I mean you could at least call or e-mail. Not to mention your class photos look like it was taken on Halloween"

"It's school policy. No laptops or phones. And it's a traditional school we only wear the robes for pictures, I told you before"

"Oh I sooo wasn't finished with all the weird stuff surrounding your school"

I start to get flustered about answering all the questions and then I wonder if I really haven't been spending much time with her. I mean she is my oldest friend….

"You know what? I think I could go for a drink actually. Let me just grab my coat"

" yippee!" Jessica jumps around.

And she wins again. stupid conscience.
