A.N. so I know I'm supposed to be working on Always There but my computer needed to be fixed and when I listened to this song and watched the video it brought this plot bunny to me that keeps jumping on my pancreas! So here it is…Its based on Find Your Love by Drake, my new favorite song (for perhaps the week).

Find Your Love Chapter 1
Blaise Zabini walked to the popular nightclub The Dragon. Today he had come back from spending three years in Italy and after enduring a painful dinner with his mother and her new husband (her seventh or eighth), he was due for a little entertainment. When he walked in, he found a crowd of people gyrating to the bass of the music being played by the DJ. He strolled confidently to the bar, ignoring the lustful gazes of the obvious prostitues kept there to entice the men into spending more money at the bar.
"A Jack Daniel's on the rocks," he told the bartender, who hurried to fill the order. Despite it being a wizarding establishment, they served Muggle drinks.
As he stood there sipping his drink, he surveyed his surroundings. In what was obviously the VIP section, he saw the owner of the club, the notorious Draco Malfoy, surrounded by women all in various stages of undress. He and Blaise had been acquaintances in school but when the war reached its peak, Blaise had turned to the Order of the Phoenix for help, turning Draco into an enemy, as he had remained a Death Eater. How Malfoy escaped Azkaban was beyond Blaise's comprehension.
But who he saw sitting close to Malfoy's side made Blaise halt his people watching. Hermione Granger was sittingon Malfoy's lap wearing something slightly more modest than the rest of the girls. She was dancing, head thrown back as Malfoy enjoyed the attention. He waved off the other girls who looked put out at being upstaged. Blaise remembered when Hermione couldn't stand Draco Malfoy, wanting to be the one who made sure he got what he deserved after the war. But here she was grinding on him like some regular prostitute and Malfoy was free. Blaise wondered if it was possible Hermione knew he was here and was using Malfoy to make him jealous. They had been an item for the latter part of the war but after the war, she had broken it off and he had fled to Italy to get away from it all. And her.
Someone walked up to them and Hermione got up only to set herself close to Malfoy stranger and Malfoy spoke for a few minutes before Malfoy kissed Hermione, rose and left. Blaise took it as his opportunity. He walked through the crowd, his target Hermione and in sight. When he approached her she was startled and looked around for a way to avoid him.
"Hello Mia," he said grabbing her hand kissing the back of it.
"Don't call me that," she said wrapping her arms around herself, a defensive posture that Blaise noticed. "What are you doing here? I thought you were in Italy."
"I came back today," he said. "Since when have you become Draco Malfoy's whore?"
"I'm not a whore!" Her face was flushed with indignation. "I wouldn't expect you to understand."
"I missed you," he said deciding the conversation wasn't going the way he wanted.
Tears filled her eyes and she looked around paranoid. "Oh Blaise," she whispered, "I missed you too. So much. But things are different now. Draco owns almost all of Diagon Alley. He has the Ministry in his back pocket. I'm his now."
"I don't see how someone can own another person," he muttered. They were quiet for a while, the music still pumping around them. By then VIP was nearly empty, the other women out on the dance floor trying to find takers for the night.
"Do you think we could get out of here and just be together?" Blaise said.
Hermione looked apprehensive. "I don't think that's such a good idea."
"Just for tonight. And I'll leave you alone after-if that's what you want of course." He held his out for her.
She pondered his proposal for a few moments, glancing around again. She reached for his hand. "Okay."
Unnoticed in the shadows, someone watched them walk away together.
