Draco's POV

When I walked into the Ministry that day to meet my lawyer, I had a lot of other things on my mind. So, naturally, the last thing I was expecting to see was Hermione Granger sitting in my lawyer's office. I was just about to ask what in the name of Merlin she was doing there when I realized that she was my lawyer.

"Granger? You're my lawyer?"

Wow. She had changed. For a start, she actually had breasts now. And her legs were pretty long. She didn't look so much like a chipmunk anymore either. In fact, she looked quite... Quite... Quite nice in fact.

Granger was staring at me like she had never seen a human being before. Without waiting to be asked, I took a seat and waited for her to speak. She was frantically flipping through her case file. Someone hadn't been doing their work. Naughty naughty. Finally, she looked up.

"So, Mr Malfoy. How can I help you?" she asked.

I smirked. "You're my lawyer. Win the case for me."

"The case that you cheated on your wife and thus she is demanding a share of your fortune?"

"Yeah, that sounds about right," I think I sounded a little bitter, and I think Granger noticed it too, because she looked at me oddly before turning back to the file.

"So the plaintiff is your wife, Astoria Gree-uh, Astoria Malfoy. And she's accused you of cheating," she repeated. "Yes," Merlin, was this the best she could do? I would have thought she would be a little better at her job, given what she had been like at school.

"So who is it?" she asked, looking at me straight in the eye.

"Who is what?" I said, completely nonplussed.

"Who did you cheat on your wife with?"

"I didn't," I said. Honestly, if I had a sickle for every time someone had asked me that since Astoria had made her case public...

"Really?" she demanded incredulously.

"I might be a slimy little git, but I do know how to honor an agreement," I said, knowing full well she wouldn't believe me.

She gave me a scrutinizing look before continuing. "Well, who does your wife think you cheated on her with?"

"Pansy Parkinson."

"And what is her lawyer's name?"

"Pansy doesn't have a lawyer."

After struggling with what seemed to be an internal urge to curse me, she took a deep breath.

"I meant Astoria's. Your wife's," she said, like she was talking to a little kid.

"Oh. Parvati Patil." Granger raised her eyebrows in surprise. Certainly, this case seemed to be comprised of all her -our- ex-classmates.

"Very well, Mr Malfoy," she said, sounding more business-like than she had the whole meeting. "I will meet with Ms Patil and discuss a possible settlement, if any. In the meantime, it would be best if you avoided your wife. Don't give her anything else to sue you for."

She stood up and extended her hand. "If that is all?"

I stood up too. I saw a challenge in her eyes, like she was daring me to call her a mudblood. But I wasn't stupid enough to call Hermione Granger a mudblood right in the middle of the Ministry. She'd probably jinx me to a jelly before I could say "It was a joke." I shook her hand, rather surprised at her firm grip.

"Alright. Goodbye, Granger."

Just as I was about to leave, she said loudly," One more thing. Since I am your lawyer, you will accord me the respect that is due to me. Do you understand?"

I turned around to face her. Smirking, I said, "Yes, Ms Granger. Goodbye." I walked out of her office. So. My wife was suing me for cheating on her with my ex-classmate, and Hermione Granger was my lawyer. Who would have guessed?
