Coincidental

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter, obviously, because I wouldn't be writing Fanfiction.

A/N: This is my first fanfiction, and I would love it if I received reviews and constructive criticism. If you don't like it, I'm sorry, I am not such an experienced writer. So, with that being said, here you go, my first fanfiction!

Chapter 1

It's funny how life can take a dramatic turn overnight, isn't it? My life had been perfect. But, as always, perfect doesn't last forever. I had six months of a perfect life, then on a Monday, everything changed. My idiot of a husband had cheated on me, with one of my friends! A friend who was apparently much sexier than me. S.P.E.W was rejected again, after I almost convinced the board, but some man on the board told everyone that nothing needed to be changed and I was overreacting. Only things I have now are my friends, and money I don't need at all.

I woke up and looked over at my husband, who was still fast asleep. Ernie Macmillan. I swear I had no idea what I was thinking when I accepted his marriage proposal. He had always treated me well, but we were never really the ones meant to be for each other. We were nothing like Harry and Ginny, who loved each other so much that it was hard for them not to see each other every single day. We were more like friends. Friends who didn't mind living with each other. But that didn't mean I didn't care that he cheated on me. It still hurt pretty badly when I found out. But the problem was, I couldn't leave Ernie either. I know it would hurt him so bad if I just left him and I had always been taught to treat others with kindness.

I got dressed and started eating breakfast when Ernie finally woke up.

"Er, morning Hermione," He glanced over at me to see my reaction.

"Morning, Ernie," I replied. "Sleep well?"

"Yes, yes quite fine..." An awkward silence then passed between us.

"Well, I'd better get to the Ministry. I'll see you later!" I said and disapparated before he could reply. I was glad to get out of there. Ever since, he was caught, he stared at me as if I was going to explode any second. Which, I would, if he made me mad enough.

When I arrived at the ministry, everything was normal. People were going to the lifts to get to their floor. As I was walking to the lifts and drinking my coffee, I was busy thinking about what to sort out today when suddenly I bumped into someone.

"What the hell, Granger?" A voice shouted. A voice that I could recognize anywhere.

"Malfoy?" I looked up and saw Draco Malfoy standing there with an angry expression on his face. Well, it was easy to figure out why, because I had spilled coffee all over him.

"Thanks a lot, you just stained my best suit." Oh no, he looked really mad.

"Sorry," I mumbled. "I didn't pay attention to where I was going."

"Well, thanks for stating the obvious!" He yelled. "I don't even know the stupid spell that gets rid of this!"

I muttered an incantation and the stain disappeared. He looked at me in surprise, and stared at me for a while.

"Right, well, er, sorry for that." He mumbled. "I just overreacted."

"It's quite all right," I said in a very high voice. "But I'm sorry, too, for you know, um, spilling coffee all over your suit."

"Don't worry about it," He said. "You did make it come off, too."

"Right, well I'm going to, uh, go now," I stuttered. As I was walking away, I tripped. Hands caught me before I fell.

"Easy there Granger, we don't you to show up at work with a coffee stain on you, right?" He smirked.

"Shut up," I said, red in the face. He only laughed.

"See you around." He turned and walked away, leaving me standing there embarrassed and in a big cloud of emotions. I wasn't attracted to him, but why had I felt electric tingles when he caught me?

A/N: Right, well that was Chapter 1. I hope you liked it. Please review! I would love to hear what you have to say.
