A/N: This isn't beta'd and it's really short it was just an idea I've been toying with and I've decided to go with it. I will being continuing LN I just need a break from it. I found a story on another site that was the same plot and I kinda got pissed. I've been working on that story/idea for like six months and just posted it here for the first time. I will continue with it I promise until then enjoy this. And I will find a beta soon!
Draco and Harry were in there offices trying to tidy up for the weekend. Since they had both become Aurors after the war they had been friends, Harry had put it behind him since Draco help them in the ultimate fight. Later Draco told Harry it was what Dumbledore said to him on the astronomy tower that changed his mind. He knew before that point that what Voldemort was doing was wrong, if he had to threaten everyone in order to get help there's no way it could have been right. At the time Harry let it go and had began to see that Draco wasn't a bad person he was just lead to believe wrong horrible things. Harry and Draco reflected on their relationship as they were getting ready to leave the ministry to go to dinner with Hermione.
Hermione had her dreams come true, almost, and after the war she got to head her own branch in the department for the regulation and control of magical creatures . She was in charge of the S.P.E.W. branch, although it was hard for her since she couldn't actually make people stop 'owning' house elves she could however make sure that people where treating them humanly. What her branch did was make sure that all houses with elves were registered and they would drop in for random inspection. If they found out that a household had an elf unregistered then they could revoke said households right to 'owning' any elves in the future and liberating the ones being held there.
Hermione knew that this evening would be strained and she was a bit worried. It would be the first time that the four of them would be together, and the first time in three years that Ron, Harry and herself had even seen each other, and two and a half since Ron had broken her heart. Even though it was unknowingly, Hermione still hated him a little (ok a lot) for doing it to her. She walked down the hallway and up the stairs to meet Draco and Harry. It was odd to all of them that they were now the 'trio'.
Ron smiled lazily at his new 'friend' Rosaline and slouched down into his seat. He had grudgingly had taken a muggle airplane to appease Rosaline's wants. Although they weren't dating the whole word seemed to think that they were, it was good for his image, his manager said. And that was fine by him. He didn't really care for her but she got him by, now that he was going back home for a while, back to his friends and family.
Hermione was nervous as they sat at the table, She glanced at Draco, who tried to give her a reassuring smile. She gave him a weak one back. Although things were always rough between the two of them, even now after working together for three years, Draco and Hermione did try to help each other. When Ron left although she wouldn't admit that he'd broken her heart Draco made sure that he was there two listen when Harry wasn't. And she confided in him on occasion, mainly because it was nice to have a third party to weigh in, Harry didn't want to betray Ron anymore than he wanted to betray her. So Draco could lend a un-bias ear, he hated Ron in school but he wasn't going to let that effect his opinion.
The all looked when a much older looking Ron walked up to the table, and smiled. He had his arm draped around a woman that none of them knew personally, just from photographs in the papers.
"Well, did you all miss me?"
