Chapter 1
At the Cafe
*****
Draco was sitting in his regular seat by the window at his favorite café, watching the world go by. He sat reading the daily prophet, frowning occasionally when he ran across something disturbing.
He didn't notice as a brunette of about the same age as him entered the café and sat at a table across from him with a large cup of coffee. She shot him a few looks before coming up to him.
'Draco?' She asked him cautiously, afraid she made a mistake. He finally withdrew his gaze from the newspaper and stared at the young woman in front of him with something close to disbelief.
"Hermione?" He asked, trying to sound casual but failing miserably. She hadn't changed so much. The last time he saw her was at their graduation at Hogwarts. She looked so young then. Almost child like, he thought. Now, she looked slightly older and more beautiful. She was wearing a pair of tight fitting jeans, a blue sweater and a pair of Steve Maddens that completed the outfit. Her long brown hair once so messy, was now curled into a sleek ponytail at the base of her neck. Her clothes and hair were slightly wet because it was just raining outside.
At the graduation feast they apologized to each other and decided to at least be civil. Draco had turned spy for Voldemort and helped pass a lot of important information to their side, thus allowing the Order of the Phoenix to place a well organized attack, which allowed them to destroy Voldemort forever. Harry Potter of course was largely responsible for the killing Voldemort part. So now, he was even more famous than before and was named the Boy-Who-Lived-Up-To-His-Name. Ronald Weasley disappeared in the middle of the war, and not even his close friends knew anything about his whereabouts.
"So, how have you been?" Hermione broke the eerie silence.
"Fine, you know, the usual. Lots of work cleaning up what Voldemort destroyed, building lost ties with other countries. What are you doing here? I thought you lived in the United States?"
"I did. I mean, I moved back to London, and now I'm staying at my friends' house. I want to move back to London, and she is helping me find a job at the ministry."
"I see. Listen; do you need a ride home? My car is parked just over there, in the lot."
"Yeah, thanks" She said awkwardly.
