Chapter 1
Hermione looked in the mirror and gave herself the once over. She couldn't believe she had let Pansy talk her into going on a blind date. All Pansy had told her is they had all gone to school together and that she had seen the chemistry flying between the two.
Hermione rolled her eyes and looked at the clock. It was 7:05. The guy was five minutes late. Awesome. Pansy had set her up with someone that was late. And probably always late. She walked toward her living room and grabbed a book on her way. She then settled into her favorite armchair. She decided then she would only wait for an hour more.
When Hermione finally looked up from her book, she saw that it was 8:01. He wasn't going to show. She sadly smiled as she put her book to the side and stood up to go change. But just then there was a knock at the door. She turned on her heel and went to open it. However, when she did, she stood there shocked and the man who was her date stood in shock too.
It slowly dawned on each of them exactly what Pansy had done. Hermione was the first to speak.
"I can't believe Pansy would do this!" She shouted as she stalked off toward the living room. "Come on, Malfoy! Don't stand there gawking in my doorway all night."
Draco stepped into her house and looked around. He couldn't believe he was actually in Granger's house without being hexed. He could still hear Granger shouting in another room so he followed her voice into the living room where she was raging about.
He sighed. He should have known Pansy would do something like this. Sure, he had had a crush on Hermione before but let's see…that was in their 1st year! They were now 22. So, that was eleven years ago! He cursed Pansy for doing something like this. But oh well might as well see where this evening would go.
"Granger." He said quietly. When she kept raging about, he went over to her and put his hands on her shoulders. "Granger."
She finally quit talking and looked up at the man. "What, Malfoy?"
He rolled his eyes. "Really, Granger? That tone was unnecessary. Pansy is the one who did this; not me."
She looked at him and stepped away from him and sat down in her favorite chair. "I'm sorry. I just wasn't expecting it to be you. I mean sure we went to school together but that is about the only thing we have in common."
Um,
Draco sat down in the chair across from her. "Yeah I know, Granger. But maybe Pansy saw something between us that she thinks would work out."
She looked at him as she processed what he just said. He had a point. "Yeah. Maybe she did see something…"
However, she was interrupted by the ringing of a phone. And it wasn't hers. She watched as Malfoy took a small cell out of his pocket and answered it.
"Hello." He said. "Oh, hey…..you know me; just sitting around…..um, 11…..maybe" He was whispering now and looked up into the angry eyes of Granger and then looked back down. "Make it 10:30…..ok…..bye." As he continued to look down, he could feel the daggers being stabbed into him.
He finally looked back up. "Um, sick friend. Needs some help, ya know?"
She stood quickly and pointed toward the door. "Really, Malfoy?! You just made a booty call to some other woman while in my presence! You have got to be kidding me!" She screamed. "Now, get out!"
He also stood; towering above her since he was six foot and two inches and she was barely five foot and four inches without heels. "Granger, it's a sick friend."
She scoffed. "How ignorant do I look, Malfoy? I mean seriously, what are you going to do? You going to heal her with your magic penis?!"
He looked at her as if she was insane. Because seriously? Did she really just say "magic penis"? Then, he saw the look of wrath cross her face as she screamed at him again telling him to get out. Instead this time, she was using her wand to point at the door…not her hand.
He made a bee line for the door then. She pointed her wand at him and sent the Bat Bogey Hex Ginny had taught her. Then, she watched as he got on his motorcycle and drove off. She slammed the door and then shouted to no one in particular, "I'm going to kill you next time I see you Pansy Parkinson!"
-Next Day—
Draco Apparated into the middle of Pansy's living room. He was on a mission. He was going to give Pansy a piece of his mind. However, it seems like Granger beat him to it by the way Pansy and that red-headed fiend she was with.
"Pansy, you have to open the Howler. Just do it. You're going to hear it one way or another." Ron told her; shuddering at the memory of his from their second year.
Draco moved out of the living room and into the doorway of the dining room. He saw Pansy with the red envelope in her hands. He saw Weaselbee patting her on the shoulder while sitting beside her. Pansy still hadn't said anything to Weasel.
Draco sighed, "Just open it up, Pans. Its starting to smoke."
They both looked up at him. Ron just nodded; looking back at Pansy. She looked at Draco and then opened the red envelope.
