Hermione's eyes were red with tears. She had broken up with Ron when he had tried to propose to her and the look of pain that had been on his face had hurt her so deeply. Now she was leav...ing Diagon Alley arms loaded with new books not watching where she was going. Suddenly she bumped into someone and fell backwards in shock dropping the books all over the ground.

He turned around and looked at her in shock his blonde hair blowing around just a little bit as his grey eyes looked at her in concern as he knelt.

"Are you alright, Granger?" Draco Malfoy asked as he helped her up. She was to flustered to answer so Draco knelt down and began picking up books.

"These are a lot of books considering we are no longer attending Hogwarts," he said as he straightened up still holding her books. Then he really looked at her. She was extremely upset looking.

"What's wrong?" he asked. Hermione really looked at him then. He seemed different. A lot had changed since the war had ended. Draco appeared different. Kinder. He was changed.

Suddenly Hermione found herself ranting. "Everything is wrong. I just broke up with the very person I was going to marry. Or at least I thought I was ever since Hogwarts. Now I am reading and trying to get over the look on his face and it is all too much."

Draco looked at her with a look of calmness and understanding.

"Why don't we apparate to Hogsmeade and go get a few drinks at the Three Broomsticks and catch up?" Draco asked her and Hermione simply nodded and he offered his arm to her and she grabbed it so they could apparate together.
