A/N: Hey everyone Thanks for the Reviews! Here is another chapter, ENJOY!
"Ginny I can't believe it, I read the contract. I'm exactly like his slave, his way or the highway, I COULD DIE!" she started hyperventilating.
"Breath Hermione, breath. You need to calm down. I'll be over in a moment." There was a loud pop and Ginny stood in front of the most pitiful site she had ever seen. There was her best friend one hand clinging onto the mahogany desk, knuckles white as can be. The other hand holding the phone to her ear, while hyperventilating, the cheeks on her face tinged red and her eyes moving frenziedly making her look psychotic. Ginny knew just the cure, pulling her wand out for a silencing charm, she walked up to Hermione and slapped her across the cheek as hard as she could.
A piercing scream came from the girl as she grabbed onto the throbbing cheek. "Finally, know calm down what seems to be the problem show me the contract." Hermione handed the pile of papers over to her friend. As she looked over them she made noises of 'ahuh' and 'hmm' when she finished with it she plopped it back on the table. "I sincerely don't see the problem." Her hazel eyes gazed up at the shocked know it all.
"Are you stupid or what?" She grabbed the contract and flapped it in front of her best friends face, "This is like a binding contract to be somebody's house elf. This is like a 24 hour job Ginny your supposed to be my friend help me out here. I need a little support." She plopped back down into the chair her friend rubbing her back in a comforting motion as Hermione stared at the contract the wheels in her head turned to come up with a solution. "Maybe…no it wouldn't work." She sighed as everything she thought of was shot down by some indication in the contract.
"It'll be alright Hermione and just think of it this way if anything he might shag you." Hermione looked up at her and gave her a grunt of outrage. "Well come on know you have to admit he is gorgeous, and you signed the contract."
"Don't remind me…"
"Come on Hermione make the best of it." She gave her friend a encouraging smile.
"What do I tell Harry and Ron?" She thought as another frown came to her face.
~DMHG~
"So let me get this straight, you quite your job with Luna, to work for Malfoy whom you thought had better benefits and it also helped Luna. Then you signed a contract pretty much making yourself into his slave, and are know asking us to keep CALM!" Harry yelled the last part as he started turning red. Ron already fainted from holding his breath too long.
"Ginny get Ron to wake up for me won't you." Ginny nodded curtly and poured water over her brothers head to wake him up.
"Bloody hell, did you have to make it so cold women?" He spluttered as he got up, "Oh, no it wasn't a bad dream. Hermione how could you do this?"
"Well I was tired of writing about idiotic things and as much as Luna gave me a good chance I wanted more, and oh boy did I get it. The point is that's where I work and I can't get out of it unless Malfoy says so, so just deal with it, that's what I've had to tell myself. Besides why are you guys freaking out I am the one who has to deal with his annoying personality day in and day out, so calm the freak down won't you!" she looked at them pleadingly.
Harry and Ron looked at each other giving sighs, "Were sorry Hermione. What do you want us to do though?"
"Be supportive what else can I ask for?"
"Well if we had the right spell we could you know kill Malfoy."
"Ron be realistic for once in your life won't you?"
"Sorry."
"It's all right," BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
"What's that?"
"That's my new pager, that my new boss gave me so I can know be bugged 24/7 by the stupid twit." She sighed loudly as she looked down at the shiny black instrument, "Ugh, I need to go. Sorry guys, I'll owl you later." She got up giving each of them hugs, and apparating to her new office and hell.
"She's screwed" Ron whispered with nods from his sister and best friend the comment was confirmed as they sat back down to socialize.
~DMHG~
"Oh, dude did you see the fiery in that slap. Damn she is a sexy little thing isn't she?" He looked over to his best mate, "Draco, man, you okay?"
"Yeah, just dandy." He said standing up and exiting the room leaving a baffled friend behind.
As he watched the screen again he mumbled to himself, "What's up with him?"
~DMHG~
Draco walked up to the secretary on his floor handing her a note, "When Ms. Granger comes back please give her this note." Leaving the note in possession of the secretary he lingered into the elevator doors to taking him to the roof of his building.
~DMHG~
"Alright Malfoy, what do you want?" She stopped looking around he was no where to be seen. "hmm" she walked over to his desk, and sat in his leather chair his office smelt nice like the muggle cologne red spice. She loved that smell, a smile crept onto her face as she looked around. Behind her there was a large window, the walls were covered in green, there were silk silver pillows lying lavishly across the plush black leather seats, that sat across from each other, on the wall behind the door there was a large bookshelf full of at least a thousand books. She gasped that was a large collection not as many as in her office but hers were not as nearly interesting as the ones she saw. She walked over to the book shelf scanning her eyes across the many binds and lightly touching her fingers to one book with spectacular gold writing on it. All of these books were muggle books.
"Tsk, tsk, Granger why are you in your bosses office?" She whipped around to see a tan man standing there, with his bright shiny teeth he looked like a Roman god except for the fact that he wasn't wearing a toga.
"Well, long time no see Zabini. How are you, still getting off on innocent young women as you were in school?"
"Ah, same Granger I know and love." They grew small smiles on their faces. She walked up to him giving him a hug. Laughing lightly he said, "Thought for a moment there you didn't recognize me. I'm just that handsome huh?" He waggled his eyebrows making her laugh at his indignation.
"Oh I noticed you, it just took me a moment. How have you been I haven't seen you since the end of 7th year."
"Good, I've got a wife and two kids."
A large smile grew on her face, "Really?"
"Pft, NO!" He laughed so hard he doubled over, "Oh the look on your face Granger, always were gullible."
"Shut up, for a moment there I thought you made something of yourself."
He stood up straight, "I have, I'm the head accountant for this place, having your best friend as your boss has its benefits."
"Speaking of which where is he?"
"You got me Granger, one second we were talking and the next he said something and left."
"Oh, well it was nice seeing you again, we'll have to meet up sometime and chat more."
"Yes, like on a double date, Draco, you, your little red head friend, and myself."
She smacked him on the arm and walked out the door. Mumbling under her breath what sounded like, "You wish."
When the door was clicked shut the secretary came up to her. "Ms. Granger this is for you from Mr. Malfoy, he requested I give this to you."
"Oh, well thank you." She smiled politely at the young women who in return nodded curtly and sat back at her desk. She opened the note and read I'll meet you on the roof -BOSS, folding the note up she threw it in the garbage heading for the elevator she pushed 'R' for roof and felt as though when she was being lifted up she were to face her doom.
~DMHG~
"Malfoy, what are we doing on the roof it's freezing." She pulled her red wool pea coat closer to her body to keep the chill from her body. As her heels clicked against the concrete she walked towards him, lying her hand on his shoulder so as not to startle him.
He turned around, "I see you got the note, took you long enough to get here."
"Well if you would have just stayed in one place, I went to your office and met up with Blaise."
"What did you two talk about?"
"Well were going to meet up later to chat hopefully."
"Oh that's nice." He seemed to have something on his mind.
"Malfoy…" He held his hand up
"Please it's Draco."
"That's nice and all but I like to keep it formal so either Malfoy, or Mr. Malfoy? You chose."
"How about Boss?"
"Fine it's still a bit formal. Why did you call me up here."
"I have a feeling you have a disagreement with the contract, is that true?"
"Damn Skippy!" she held her hand up to her mouth, "Ahem, I mean, ugh yes I do. Can we discuss it perhaps."
"Maybe I'll think about it?" he smirked down at the petite women trying to smolder the emotions off her face.
"What do you mean maybe, you pulled me away from my friends so you could just disappoint me?" she whispered fiercely poking her finger into his gut.
"Trust me, you don't know what disappointment is Granger." He turned around walking away.
"Well you'd sure as hell better show me what it is because I don't know what you think it is but I sure feel disappointed."
He looked over his shoulder at her. "Disappointment doesn't come from a job Granger that's pitying yourself. I have to go I have a meeting to be to, and your supposed to be there as well, it's a welcoming of sorts." She was stranded on the roof after that sentence not knowing whether to scream at the little rat or cry for her stupidity.
