Hi Guys! I know I haven't updated in a majorly LONG time, but I'm now able to update I don't know how quickly the updates will come as I plan to have long chapters around 3000 words each but could vary to more or a little less, but I can most definitely promise that they will come way quicker than this one took. I have just a majorly crappy three years, and that's why I haven't updated… Read that A/N as well, as I added stuff into that ha-ha plus I got a major urge to start writing last night.

I have also added new stuff in Chapter 1, not only to help the story flow, but to fix some of the inconsistencies that I found, there could possibly be a few more problems, but hopefully it is now completely fixed plus I hated how I wrote, since I sounded much younger haha

Thank you all for reading, and for following etc and I hope you guys continue to like the story and I plan for it to be quite long

I realised I spelt Parvati as Parvarti in the previous chapter and for that I apologise


"That's really quite amazing" Hermione said trying to stifle her giggles.

Marcus scowled playfully before giving her a slight smile. Both were thinking very similar things about one another, however Marcus was a guy and what do guys think about, which was food and sex. He was rather creatively thinking up all the ways he could get her into his bed and what things they could do, even though he was thinking this, he did still respect her. She is Hermione Granger, Order of Merlin First Class, and all of that, who wouldn't respect her.

Oh almighty Circe and Merlin's balls give me strength, this witch is absolutely amazing, bewitching even. I need her to be mine, she looks so nimble, like her legs would bend every which way and like she needs my protection even though I know she doesn't, I want to give it to her.

Hermione snapped her fingers, and jolted Marcus out of his fantasy, which included him, Hermione tied up to the bed and a bowl of fruit, whipped cream and chocolate sauce and now he realised that he probably did not stand a chance to be picked by her to do that but he was going to try his luck anyway. Marcus felt kind of bad in the way he thought of her thinking in a crude manner as she was a lady and should be treated as such but she was so adorable and even sexy with her wild hair that he could not help himself.

"Sorry Hermione, what were you saying I wasn't really paying attention" Marcus said, feeling bad and trying to portray that with his voice.

"I had noticed" Hermione said quite stiffly. As soon as Marcus realised that she wasn't happy but not angry he knew he had to fix this, he just did not why she was quiet about the fact he zoned out.

"Hermione, if your pissed I'm really sorry, but if it helps, I was thinking of y..." Marcus stumbled as he almost slipped.

" I mean thinking of when they were going to bring out dinner and drinks", Marcus said sheepishly while rubbing his neck.

Hermione laughed; Marcus thought she had the most amazing laugh. It was like a tinkle not one of those really grating ones, that all the pureblood women seemed to adopt when around other women of the stature or around people they wanted to make sure knew that they were "better" than in looks and wealth. Marcus could not stand the way those women acted, like it was hard to give some passion into any area of their lives even in bed, they would lay there and act that it was good but remain unresponsive, unless it was with the young ones, but as soon as marriage began to be thrown around they changed into harpies and everything changed. Being an Quidditch star brought all of those women around, all those conniving bitches constantly hovering, with their claws out wanting his money or fame or both and sometimes not even for the money or fame just for the sex. He did not denying he was good at it, excelled even. Marcus smiled a little at this thought. However, this didn't not seem enough for Marcus lately, he was now looking for quality rather than quantity.

"That's okay Marcus, I'm sorry, I forgot that I was with a boy or rather a man for a while, generally I get told to be quiet once I start on my plans for the Wizarding world. It all just seems outdated sometimes" Hermione sighed with a heavy heart.

"Do you mean that your friends Potter and Weasley don't listen to your ideas?" He inquired.

Hermione scoffed as he finished his sentence. "I don't mean to sound rude when I did that, but you've met the boys, they don't really care about half the things I say because they'd rather talk Quidditch instead".

Marcus smiled, "You do realise that I play Quidditch for the Foulmouth Falcons right as a chaser and captain", teasing Hermione lightly.

"Yes I do realise that, but you can talk about other interesting topics as well, and plus you listen, you don't interrupt and you seem to understand my need to talk." She finished saying this with a tiny half grin at Marcus, which gave sent an warmth throughout his body, which he had never had happen before.

Attention passengers, this is your captain John White speaking, the cabin crew are now making rounds with the drink cart, and then shall pass through once more with the food cart. We have 6 hours left on our journey; we sincerely hope that your flight has been comfortable and that the entertainment suits all needs.

Hermione grinned at the announcement and turned to Marcus and said, "There you go Marcus, you can now have a beer and food, they are looking after all your needs," she began to giggle lightly afterwards.

"Careful Princess, or I may think that you care a little about me"

Marcus teased back, grinning at the fact that she now seemed comfortable enough to joke around with him despite the obvious fact that he could crush her due to being a foot taller and his girth wider than her petite form.

Hermione blushed at the nickname he had just given her, but did nothing to correct him, because she liked that he called her something other than babe, baby or an annoyingly shortened version of her name, such as Mione or Herms, which Ronald deemed it fit to call her.

Just as Marcus opened his mouth to say something, the airhostess came to their seats to offer them food and drinks.

Meanwhile, down the other end of the plane, Greg and Theo were sitting quite awkwardly in between the two Patil sisters, who leaned over the boys to talk.

Greg, who had matured and aged into a handsome man, politely said "If you ladies would like we can switch places so that you can talk more freely, and not have to worry about leaning over us".

Parvati smiled sweetly and replied "No that's quite alright, we like this arrangement, I feel rude because we haven't included you though". Padma spoke up, "Yes, it was rude of us, I don't know if you remember us well, but I'm Padma and that is my sister Parvati."

Greg nodded, and Theo spoke up "We remember, the first time Slytherin house really noticed you girls is when you attended the Yule Ball, not only from the fact that Parvati went with Potter but because you wore something completely different from the rest of the girls, in which you looked stunning". Theo wasn't as well known for being a playboy like Draco, Adrian and Blaise, but he was extremely charming when he needed to be.

Padma giggled a little at the boys, finding them well spoken and captivating instead of the bully bodyguard and recluse that they seemed to be when attending Hogwarts. The girls felt slightly bad for how the spoke of the Slytherin's, especially the group that they were travelling with today, while at school and sometimes even now to their friends despite not speaking or seeing them in a very long time.

Both girls knew that in school, the group were mean and did sometimes deserve what was said or the actions that others took against them such as when Mad-Eye turned Draco into a ferret, but as the actions of the boys came out during the war trials and the knowledge of what their families had taught them and what their families and themselves had to do to survive, the behaviour that they exhibited throughout their schooling years was forgiven slightly if not completely by some people because no one, especially children (because that's what they were) should never had to have gone through that. Childhoods were lost and everyone was forced to stand on a side and grow up to quickly. Battles were fought, on ideals that were not completely their own, friends were lost, forgiveness seems the only way to go in circumstances and it seems most have. Padma and Parvati decided that the boys seemed different and that they would reserve all comments and thoughts `that may be negative in any way until they knew them better, who knows, the girls thought, maybe they would gain new friends from this holiday.

From the point that the girls had thought this, the boys seemed to notice in their behaviour and it gave them a sense of hope that possibly the girls may forgive them and give them a chance to prove that they are gentlemen and can hold a conversation and are worthy of their time.

"Didn't the captain say something about entertainment that we should be enjoying?" Theo said a little bit confused as to what was meant to be entertain on a jumbo jet filled with people, that could drop out of the air at ay second should something fail. This was the thought that ran through his head, when he thought about flying on a plane, hence his reasoning for keeping his wand on his body at all time.

Parvati leant over and pulled the headphone from the pocket of the chair in front of him, and plugged them into the hole and placed one of the pieces into his ear. Then she reached to the inside of his armrest and pressed a button that released the remote to the television. Theo and Greg seemed at awe with the mechanics of the entertainment system which surprised the girls, because even though they were purebloods, the girls thought that they'd at least know and own the best of the best stuff including Muggle stuff (as a precaution at least, the element of surprise is a nasty thing if it is sprung on you).

Padma did the same for Greg, and both girls popped a headphone piece into their own ears and turned the entertainment system on.

"What kind of shows do you watch" Padma inquired, and when she saw that they were confused by her question she re-asked it but instead said "What kind of theatre shows do you watch?," "Do you like a Genre of book?" and more questions along those lines.

The boys recovered and Theo let it be known that he like mysteries, especially if they seemed to be based on history. This made Parvati smile, and in an instance she had put on a television show called 'Whitechapel', and was pleasantly surprised to see that all 3 seasons were on the entertainment system.

Greg, on the other hand had too much of that during the war, and told Padma that he liked to read lighter books, and go to the funnier theatre shows. Padma knew exactly what she would put on after hearing this, and the next thing Greg knew was a show called ' 2 Broke Girls' was playing. While watching the show, he noticed Padma staring at him, while he was laughing at the wit of the character Max. While he would never had picked this show due to the naming, he was glad he left it up to her because he was astonished at how creative Muggles were. He smiled at Padma to show her that he was seriously enjoying the show and she settled comfortably in her seat and began watching once more, while giggling along with Greg's laughing.

They continued this until the airhostess came and asked them what food they would like and if they would prefer a soft drink or alcoholic beverage.

Even further down the plane sat an irritated red head and a blonde prat, who were both fuming at the fact that they had to sit with one another. This however was not the only reason Draco was angry, he was furious at his friends for yelling at him, even though he knew he was in the wrong it didn't stop that he didn't like that he had been ganged up on. This seemed to be a side effect that has never gone away from being an only child who was spoilt beyond belief by his mother.

Ginny had gotten bored of waiting for food, and even more tired of hearing Malfoy tapping his feet incessantly, so about 30 minutes into the flight she had started a movie. It was new Miley Cyrus movie called 'SO undercover', she thought it sounded a little lame but she looked at the character list and saw some amazing actors on it, plus the lead male was quite attractive. About 10 minutes in, Ginny was enraptured, it was a teen movie but the story line was funny, the characters were funny and all in all a great movie. This had obviously annoyed Malfoy as he snatched one of her headphones and glared at her.

"What is your bloody problem Malfoy?" Ginny whispered harshly at him while trying to retrieve her headphone back so she could continue her movie in peace and also not to distract the other passengers.

Draco smirked at Ginny which caused her anger to rise, which Draco loved as he thought she went the prettiest shade of red, to match her hair of course. "I'm sorry, I didn't realised you were using it" which they both knew was a straight out lie.

Despite wishing to be angry with him, Ginny had to laugh at his gall and sarcastic wit. It wasn't everyday that she met a guy like that, and personally she thought it was better than having a guy whine at her all day about how they hate being followed for being famous, and that they want to settle down and that she is too wild and being asked questions like what happened to the girl I knew at Hogwarts. It grates on a girls nerves, and plus she was such a large personality that she would need a person with one themselves or she'd end up walking all over them without a second thought.

"Red, are you listening? Or are you just going to continue to ogle at me?" He said with a half smile playing on his lips.

"What do you want Malfoy?" Ginny once more asked her ire rising.

"I need you to tell me how to do what you are doing on this thingy in the chair" he replied and it flustered Ginny to know that not only is he asking for help, he is asking it of her and the fact he didn't know everything like he claimed made her smile.

"Fine Malfoy, but after this you don't bug me the entire time to our destination" she sighed resignedly.

"That's fine Weaslette" Draco agreed, but knowing there was no way he'd leave her alone for hours, while he could torment her and she would be able to yell, hex or curse him or get away. This made him grin, which shocked Ginny as she had never seen him do that before and she was surprised to see that she liked how it looked.


Sorry guys, going to leave it there will be back soon I promise that! xx
