Chapter 1: Their First Encounter

After the war, the light side has won over Voldemort. But many people have sacrificed their lives just to succeed. This includes Ron Weasley. Hermione cannot take the death of her most beloved boyfriend so she decided to leave the wizarding world and go to the muggle world. She decided that it's much better to forget all the things about the wizarding world and live as a simple muggle. She left the wizarding world without telling her friends, except Harry Potter, where she's going. She knows that Harry has the rights to know where she was because he is the only bestfriend she has.

"Harry, I just want to tell you that I cannot stay here now." Hermione said.

"WHAT?" Harry exclaimed.

"I cannot take the death of Ron. its too much for me to handle this" Hermione explained.

"Where are you going to stay then?" Harry asked.

"To the Muggle London. Harry, can you do me a favor, please!" Hermione said

"What?" Harry asked curiously.

"Can you promise me that you will not tell anyone where I went when they asked you? Even if the one who asked is one of our friends, even Ginny? Hermione asked.

"Even the Weasleys! Why Hermione?" Harry said.

"Because I can't take the look in their sad face. They will only remind me of what happened to Ron." Hermione explained.

"Okay, I understand you Hermione. I know it has been hard for you to loose someone you loved. Don't worry I will not tell anyone where you went. I'm happy that at least you told me where your going. I'll go crazy if even you will be gone from my life, you know." Harry said.

"Thanks, Harry" Hermione said.

"Goodbye, Harry" Hermione said.

"Goodbye, Hermione. Be careful there." Harry told Hermione.

After bidding their last goodbyes, Harry embraced Hermione for the last time as Hermione went to the muggle London where no one knows her. Where she can't see anyone she knows. Where she can start her life all over again.

Draco Malfoy has lost everything during the war. His parents were killed by Voldemort because during the war, they decided to switch sides, because they realized that they don't want to associate with Voldemort anymore. He lost the Malfoy Mansion because it was destroyed in the war. The only thing that was left to him was his wand and his money. With all the things that happened to him, he wanted to have a new life.

"I want to have a new life. I want to change myself to be a better person." Draco told himself.

With that, he decided to go to a place where no one knows him. Where no one can judge his life. Where no one can manipulate him. And the best place to go is Muggle London. So he ventured towards his new life.

But both of them doesn't know what lies ahead of them.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After 2 years of living in Muggle London, Draco was now used in his new life. He now owns a house smaller than the Malfoy Mansion and got himself his very first car. He also learned different household chores like cleaning his own house, cooking his own meals, etc. Draco had proved to himself that he had already changed for the better and was happy with the result. He was not the old Draco who wears his Famous smirk evertime he passes someone. He is a changed person who smiles and greet everyone who passes by. He stopped insulting people and starts being friendly with them. He also started to work for everything he needs, and earns his own money. He works in a company as a manager. He uses his salary to buy everything he needs and everthing he wants. He barely uses the money he got from the death of his parents to buy material wealth because it only remindes him of his past. How he relies on their family's wealth to get anything he wants. He also stopped using his wand for this reminds him of the mistakes that he have done by killing the innocent people. he only uses it if he really needs to. In his 2 years in Muggle London, he didn't encounter anyone that he knows from his past while wandering in the streets, strolling in the park, or while he was driving.

Before he went to the Muggle London last 2 years, He found a box containing several memories and letters that belong to his mother. he brought it along so that he can keep some memories that can remind him of his mother. Even now, he still keeps that box but he never read or touch anything that's inside that box because he knows that it belongs to his mother not to him. He never even tried to let other people touch it because for him, that box is a special thing in his life. Even if he feels that there is something unexplainable inside the box, a mystery awaiting to be revealed, he never dared to open it.

"I'll never open this because this is the only memory that my beloved mother had left me. Even if there's something wierd about what's inside this, I'll never open it." Draco promised himself.

One day, after dreaming, yet another bad dream about the death of his parents, he felt that there is something odd about his appearance.

"I feel odd. like there's something wierd about my appearance, but I don't see any difference. Maybe its just my imagination." Draco told himself.

He didn't mind that feeling and he just shrug it off his mind. He prepared himself a yummy breakfast and after eating, he just prepare himself for work. He decided that he would just walk his way to the office because he's not feeling well to drive his car. He grabbed the latest newspaper in the mailbox and read it while walking on the street. Because he's too much preoccupied with reading, he didn't see the woman that's going in the opposite direction. She too is also preoccupied in reading the newspaper and is not looking if there is a person ahead of her. the two people did not notice that they are going to bump in each other.

"OUCH!" both exclaimed.

"Oh I'm so... Granger!" Draco asked. Suprised.

"Malfoy!" Hermione asked. She too is Surprised.

"What are you doing here!" Hermione asked.

"That's What I also want to ask you!" Draco said.

Hermione noticed something in her hand.

"Look what you have done to me!" Hermione screamed, showing Draco a bruise in her hand.

When Draco was about to hold Hermione's hand, he too noticed the same bruise in his hand.

"Look Granger, I also have the same bruise as you!" Draco said.

"You're right. Why do we have similar bruises? asked Hermione.

"Dunno" Draco answered.

"Oh well maybe it's just coincidence" Hermione said.

"Maybe" Draco answered.

"What are doing here?" Hermione asked again.

"I went here after the war. To have a different life" Draco answered honestly. "You?"

Hermione fell silent for a moment thinking if she should tell Malfoy the reason why she'd gone in here. While Hermione is thinking, Draco is observing how Hermione has improved as a woman. How her body has its perfect curves, how her face seems so beautiful. He thought that she's the perfect woman that he's been waiting for. But Draco snapped out of his dreamy state when he heard someone sob. When he looked at Hermione, he saw her crying. In the back of his mind, he thought that she looked beautiful even if she's crying. He approached her and held her in his arms.

"Malfoy, what are you doing?" Hermione asked.

"I'm just comforting you because I can see clearly that you're really hurt." Draco whispered in Hermione's ear.

Upon hearing this, Hermione cried all her heart. She cried all the hurt that she felt during the past years. She felt that in Draco's arms she's secured, she's safe. Whille crying she thought of how handsome Draco has turned out to be. How his hair fall perfectly into his face, how his eyes looked intimidating, and how his voice can soothe the lonliness in her heart. She just cried and cried until she felt that she had cried all the lonliness and hurt that was kept in her heart. Even if it took a long time, Draco just held her in his arms, never even attempting to release her. When draco heard that the sobbing has stopped, he looked at Hermione.

"Are you alright now?" asked Draco with a concerned voice.

"Yup. Thanks for comforting me" Hermione told Draco. "Well then, I..I must go now. I'll Be late for work."

With that Hermione started walking away from Draco. When Draco suddenly realized that Hermione is a bit far from him, he wheeled around and run after Hermione. When he had catch up with her, he held her arm and wheeled her around.

"Her..Hermione?" Draco said. Panting.

Upon realizing what she had heard, she asked herself "Did he just called me Hermione?"

"Why did you follow me?" Hermione asked "Dra..Draco"

Draco was surprised that Hermione called him Draco not Malfoy.

"I..I just want to ask if you could give me your cellphone number?" Draco said. Blushing while he said it.

Hermione saw the blush creeping in Draco's cheeks and just giggle to herself. Draco, on the other hand, thought that what he did is the stupidest thing a man can do. "Dont get your hopes up, she's not going to give it to you" Draco thought. But he was mistaken

"Okay" Hermione said.

"What?" Draco said not believing what he heard.

"I said I'm going to give you my number." Hermione repeated.

"O..Okay" Draco said as he get his Cellphone.

"I guess I'll call you some other time." Draco said after getting Hermione's Number.

"Okay" Hermione answered.

After that encounter, they both went to their separate ways. Draco went to his work but all that is in his mind is Hermione. He thought about her for the whole day. Same as Hermione. She cannot remove Draco from her mind. Another thing that bothers Draco is the bruise that both Hermione and him acquired after the accident. the bruise remained at hte same state as it is from the first time they had seen it. When Draco went home, he had this feeling that the answer to his question is inside his mother's box. For once, he opened the box and looked at the letters inside it and he had seen it. A letter for him. The only letter for him. He questioned himself 'Why do i have a letter from my mother in here?" He decided to open it. When he had opened it, he began to read. After reading, his eyes became wide and he exclaimed "What the hell is this"
