Malfoy. I shake my head trying to get his image out of my head. I really need to stop thinking about him.
"Granger!"
There he is. The annoying blond ferret boy. The one I like so bloody much! I can't believe I fell for the ferret boy! If Ron found out…. I don't want to even think about it. All I know is that if Ron found out Malfoy won't have any blood to pass on to the heir he's going to have in a month. And then I remember that the baby isn't his.
"What is it Malfoy? Can't you knock?" I shout. He's standing in my office door and I want to wring his neck. His pale neck. That holds his blond head.
"Well, I could knock Granger but I decided not to. Now do you have the divorce papers?"
Now I know this sounds like he's married to me, but he's not. He's married to Astoria Greengrass. Well, was. Now. He got a divorce and hired me to file all the paper work that came with a Pure-blood marriage.
"Almost. How's Astoria?" I ask, just trying to sound polite.
"That cow's doing fine. As fine as she can being pregnant and big as a whale can. I can't wait to be rid of her."
I look up at him. I can see he really loved her. Unshed tears were glazing his eyes. I forgot about my feelings.
"Are you really sure you want to do this Malfoy? I mean I can just rip up these papers and you can go home to your wife. She needs you. She already said she was sorry."
"Granger-" Malfoy starts, but tears are staring to leak from the corners of his eyes. "Granger just please give me the papers. I can't-"
I go around my desk and pull him into a hug. Which is weird. Because I'm like a foot shorter than he is. I can feel his tears on my blouse.
"Granger-"
His voice is muffled and I pulled out of the hug. I grab his hand and lead him over to the couch in the corner of my office. I pull him down with me.
"Malfoy, your not getting the papers today." I whisper. He's still crying and it's starting to upset me. I feel his hand come up to my cheek, he wipes something off my face.
"Why are you crying?" he whispers as he puts his face on my shoulder. Tears are still streaming down his face.
"I guess it's because your crying." I try to give him a grin but I know by the look on his face it's shaky and watery.
"Don't cry. I can't- I just don't want you to cry because of me Granger. You're the only friend I have right now."
He was still crying. And what he just made me cry even harder.
"Malfoy, you know that isn't true. You have Zabini. And I know you don't want to hear this but Astoria is your wife, Malfoy. She loves you. She said she was sorry!"
Malfoy lifts his head of my shoulder. "Granger. If she loved me would she cheat on me? Would she have another man's baby?" He was still crying. He puts his head back on my shoulder.
"Malfoy. Malfoy. Malfoy, look at me."
Malfoy picks up his head and looks at my face. I quickly scrub at my cheeks to make sure all the tears are gone. I feel at the corner of my eyes. Tears are still lurking.
"Malfoy. You are not getting your papers today. You are going home to talk to Astoria. If you still want a divorce by Monday come back. But you aren't getting your papers today."
He grabs my hand and pulls me up. He gives me a hug. I hug back.
"Thanks Granger." he whispers.
I nod my head and I know he felt it.
As he walks out of my office I know he'll be back Monday for the papers.

A/N: I got the idea from a Taylor Swift song called "I'd Lie." Like Hermione would lie if someone asked her if she loved Draco.. Review please!
