this is a post-war marriage law fic with a veela twist. Dramione **Im going to reiterate this here, since a certain reader clearly didn't read my notes in one of the first few chapters, The music I use in this story does not co-inside with the time the story takes place. As I said before, Im using current music mostly.

Sing For Me

Chapter 1- June 7, 1998

Hermione was startled awake that morning by a persistent, light tapping noise her bedroom window at the Burrow. Yawning, she rolled over to check the time on her alarm clock. It was flashing 6:00am. Getting up out of her bed, she looked out the window to see a small barn owl holding a letter. "Who in Merlin's name is writing me this early in the morning," she asked herself as she slid the window open enough to let the owl in. She took the letter from the owl as she gave him a treat. He pecked her hand lovingly, and then flew away. After she opened the letter, she got quite a shock from what she was reading.

Dear Miss Granger,

I am writing to you, hoping that you would be willing to give me a bit of help. As I'm sure you've heard by now, Mr. and Mrs. Malfoy were murdered outside of their manor yesterday morning. I am currently helping to hide Draco, as he could still be in considerable danger until the murderers are apprehended. As you can imagine, he is not taking things well at all. On top of all of this bad news, he is also dealing with a few more pressing issues.

Since you two have become close since the end of the war, I was hoping you would come stay here at my home for the remainder of the summer, to help him deal with his loss and be there for him as a friend. He is definitely going to need it.

Please let me know by owl if this is acceptable to you, and when I can expect you to arrive.

Sincerely,

Minerva McGonagall

"OMG!" she said to herself. She then quickly pulled out a new piece of parchment and a quill and wrote a quick note to the professor letting her know she would be over as soon as possible.

She ran around her room like a crazy person, trying to pack all of the things she would need for the rest of the summer, and her return to Hogwarts for her final year. Her and the rest of the 7th years were returning to redo the year they all missed due to the war. After shoving everything into her trunk, she brought it downstairs to the kitchen, where she found Mrs. Weasley busy fixing breakfast. She quickly explained to her what was going on, and where she was heading.

"Oh My! How terrible for Draco. Go on dearie, I will let everyone else know whats going on. I'm sure Harry will want to stop by and check on him as well." Mrs Weasley said.

"Thanks Mrs. Weasley." Hermione said. She hugged Mrs. Weasley goodbye, and then quickly Flooed to Professor McGonagall's home.
