Hermione Granger groaned as she looked at the sparkly black pair of stilettos Blaise had got her. She was never one for heels, she thought they stylish but they were uncomfortable and Hermione would never put herself in discomfort no matter how cute the shoes were. When she was younger she would put on her mother shoes just for funny but that all ended when she tripped and fell down the stairs busting out her two front baby teeth. Hermione made sure to burn all of the pictures with her without her teeth. If she could go back in time she would tell her younger self not to smile too big or at all in picture , but she pretty sure that her mother has some copies hide because she thought they are so "cute".

Hermione wondered if Blasie would notice if she didn't wear them, he probably would have a hissy fit. She sighed and gave in, she pushed her feet in to the three inch high shoes. She wobbled around, suddenly she tripped over her coffee table fall back on her butt with a loud thump that rang through her apartment. Hermione cursed under her breath. She knew she should have gotten rid of the god forsaken ugly coffee table her parents bought her for her housewarming party. Hermione parents were dentists not interior room designer, so they didn't have the eye for good decor. Hermione wanted to throw up when her parent brought that awful sickly green colored had oddly colored geometric shapes on it that looked like a pre-school had drew them. There was a long awkward silence when they first showed it to her. Hermione didn't want to seem ungrateful for the gift ,so, she faked a squeal and grabed her parents in a tight hug , and kissed them both on the cheek.

"Oh my merlin's beard I love it." she squealed when she wanted to groan. Her parents beamed at her.

"Hermione we knew you would love it." her mother said. Ron snickered, Hermione shot him a glare that made him shut up.

"Yeah your mother found some Parisian interior designer who said this would look great in your living room."Her father added. Hermione quietly cursed the "Parisian Designer" for their ugly choice of furniture. Every day after that Hermione would wishes she could get rid of the ugly eyesore that clashed with virtual everything in her living room, but her parents come over every year for Christmas and they would ask what happen to it and she didn't have the heart to tell them that she loathes that thing more than she did Malfoy. She even tried spells to change the color none of it made it look and better if not worse. Hermione groaned as she picked herself up off the floor. With a few quick little charms Hermione made the shoes comfortable and easy to walk in. She then she grabs her stuff and headed to the office.


Hermione wasn't use to people whispering and staring but today she got more than her healthy dose of that. The guard downstair didn't recognize her and almost had her arrested and Hermione would be damn if she let herself get arrested again.

Hermione remembers vividly the first time she was arrested. Her, Ron and Harry had went out to a pub for a quick drink at a muggle pub, little did she know that Ron was an angry drunk who couldn't hold his liquor and Harry was giggling one. After one drank Ron started shouting curse words all over the place. He was get angry for no reason. He started to yell at the peanut bowl for be empty then he was irritated with with the pub owners for not having toilet paper. Harry was laughing at everything and anything that came out of Ron's and Hermione's mouths. He bursted out laughing when the bartender asked him if he wanted some water. Hermione grew irritated with every pass moment so finally she decided to force the drinks out of her friends hands. Harry was pretty easy but Ron had a tight grip on the cup. Hermione struggled to get it out of her hand when suddenly she flew back and knock over the drink of some big guy.

"He said are you trying to start a fight little lady." He boomed putting his hand on her shoulder. Hermione wasn't afraid of him with a twist of her wand she could have him knocked out but this was muggle bar not a wizarding one. Suddenly out of nowhere a fist came flying at the guy's face and that fist belong to none other than Ron Weasley the angry drunk.

"Get your dirty hands off of her." Ron slurred angrily. Harry was still at his stool laughing his ass off thinking this situation was funny. Not soon after Ron punched the big guy did his goonies get up looking pissed. Hermione tug arm trying to tell him they should leave but that seemed to only make him angrier.

"Hey punk, did you just punch our boss." One of the beefy looking baboon said.

"Yeah I didn't want are you gonna..." But Ron didn't finish because the boss had gotten up off the floor and punch him back. Suddenly fist started to fly everyone in the bar exempting Hermione and Harry who was roaring mad with laughter on the floor because some one took his chair to throw, was include in the mega bar fight. Hermione was in the middle of it ducking and trying to avoid fly away fist.

"That when someone yelled "The policemen are coming." Police. Hermione panicked she had to find Ron and grab Harry and get out of there but they could apparate in front of a whole room of muggles. Merlin's beard why I'd her friends have to be sloppy drunks. Everyone scattered and ran off in different directions leaving Hermione, Ron Harry and a few knocked out guys. Ron was on the floor groaning, he had a bloody nose and a busted lip. Harry was also groaning clutching stomach for laughing so much. Hermione tried to help Ron up when he threw up all over the floor. Hermione sighed. All of sudden the police bursted on to the scene holding taser and sticks for subduing rowdy hooligans. Their eyes fell to Hermione and the rest of the people in the room. Darn it they were late again but there was no way they would let the boss known they failed again. That would mean no coffee breaks and doughnuts for a three months and being stuck on traffics duty. So they made the decision to arrest everyone in the room including the the badly beat up guy who threw up and the floor,the laughing maniac on the floor in the back and a girl who looked like a deer caught in the headlights. They didn't know who was guilty or not so they would just arrest everybody. The pulled in the hull and register them in the system.

Hermione was thrown in a cell with a bunch of ruff and tuff looking women. They growled at her first but soon they warmed up to her, by the time Hermione Granger got out she was an honorary member of the Hell Flowers biker gang. They even gave her a leather jacket and told her if she was having any trouble to call them. Hermione learned her lesson that day never ever go out drinking anywhere with Harry and Ron.

Hermione terrible snapped out of her memory when the guard asked for her badge,she showed him her badge and looked at and then at her, he did this few times before letting her in.

When Hermione enter the coffee room she heard someone cup crack and a angry voice say, "Dammit Terry, what the hell !". Hermione turned around to find Terry Boot mouth out with awe, which made Hermione smirk a bit.

"Like what you see huh Terry?" Blaise asked coming up to Hermione putting his arm on her shoulder. Terry seem to had been frozen with a surprised face. Someone said "Damn Hermione way to make Terry eat his words." Everyone laughed expected Terry who was still stunned.

Finally he snapped back to his sense and said "Bloody hell,Blaise what the hell I'm gonna lose this bet for sure, who can resist her when she looks like that." Hermione looked at Blaise who had a smug look on his face like he was enjoying every minute of this. Terry was pissed , how the hell was he supposed to know that Hermione Granger would come back look like a freaking super model. He would damn if he was Blaise servant for a year he would soon be crucio then be like a house elf for Blaise. Blaise was very amused with Terry's expression this was too good to be true. Blaise had already thought a list of 1000+ things he would force Terry to do in a year. Blaise smiled evilly to himself. 'Ah life is good.' he thought to himself.


Draco Malfoy was in an irritable mood this morning. He hadn't sleep a wink since that article came out. He was wondering if it would affect their business and tint his reputation, if only he could get his hands on Rita Skeeter he would ring her boney neck. He was lost in his thoughts when he had bumped into something or someone. He growled who was the idiot who wasn't looking where they were going. The that idiot was none other than Hermione Granger. He should of know she the only one who walks around like chicken with her head cuts, she cause more accidents than any other employee that has passed through here. For some odd reason something about her was off but he couldn't tell what. She seem different today. Then he realized she hair was in sleek waves down her back with blonde highlight at the end. She was wearing fashionable clothing. Draco couldn't help but stare but there was no way he would let her see he was surprised at her new look. He looked at her with his usual poker face. Hermione glared at him.

"Miss Granger would you mind not running around like a chicken with their head cut off. I don't need to remind you that you've caused more accidents than anyone in this office." he said in an icy voice. He caught her rolling her eyes and mumbling something under her breath.

"I'm sorry Malfoy sir next time I'll make sure not to break too many bones." she said cheekily. Draco glared at her but that didn't even fazed her, she just brush past him and walked into her office.

If there was anyone who could make Draco angry it would be Hermione Granger. She was the most cheeky employee he'd ever came across. She was alway making snarky and sly remarks to just about everything. They were always at each other throats. Their feud went all the way back to their time at Hogwarts. She in a trouble making gang with Potty and the Weasel. It irritated him that the muggleborn always got better marks then him. A muggleborn got better grades than him, a Malfoy that was unacceptable so said his father. But it came to him as a surprise to find her working at his family business. Being higher up than her amused him greatly, he saw this as his chance to get his revenge for them turning him into a ferret. He shuddered a bit think of his time as a ferret. But it was harder then it seem because Hermione Granger wasn't one to broken easily. He hate to admit it but she work hard and Draco grudgingly give her promotions because she seem like the only one in the office who had an IQ larger than her shoe size. That is why he hate to have to tell her that he need her to come with him on an important business trip. He cringed at the thought of them being alone together, but it had to be done.

He casually walked in to her office she didn't seem to notice him , she was busily working at her desk.

Draco cleared his throat unneededly loud, Hermione's head snapped up and she raised an eyebrow.

"Miss Granger unfortunately I need you to accompany me on a important business trip next weekend. So I will need you to book a hotel room please." He told her. She glared at him.

"Why did you pick me ?" she asked.

"Don't asks question just comply." he replied. Hermione smirked which made Draco feel unsettling. What is she playing at.

"Well unfortunately for you I have plan this weekend so find someone else, plus you wouldn't wants a liability going along with you." she lied. She was all to happy to turn down the Pureblood Git.

"Cancel your plan because I'm not asking you I'm telling you that on next week Friday morning you and I will be on a plane to Liverpool." he snapped.

"Well I'm tell you I have plan that can't be canceled, so find someone else please." she said feeling more and more heated as he stood there talking to her.

"What are you plans?" he asked feeling highly enraged that she dared to not to comply with his simple request. He pretty sure he asked nicely.

"My great- aunt's funeral." Hermione lied again. Draco squinted his eyes at her.

"Well you'll just have to write her a card." he said bluntly, he smirks when he caught her surprised look mixed in with pure anger. "So Miss Granger make sure you have a suitcase and your passport is all in check. and make sure not to forget to book the hotel room." and with that he walked off feeling just a little bit satisfied with himself.


Hermione huffed loud to herself.'Damn that arrogant bastard.' she thought. Hermione would rather be at home alone with Crookshank eating chinese takeout. Why did he have to pick her of all people. Draco was a self- made man who worshiped his creator. Hermione believe that Draco was the type to have no enemies, but to intensely dislike by his friends. She was mumbling angrily to herself when Blaise enter her office beaming at her.

"Hermione you look like you could Avada Kedavra somebody right about now." Blaise commented.

"That bastard Malfoy chose me to accompany him on a business trip." she huffed.

"Wake up and smell the roses Hermione there is the perfect opportunity to seduce him with his you womanly charms. You can even use my mating date" he said to her as she tried to the shimmy but looked like a obese snake having a spaz attack. Hermione couldn't help but giggle at the sight of co- worker odd and unattractive dance.

"Seriously Blaise I rather be Crucio , then be with him longer than a couple minutes." she said to him. He was about to answered her when her phone rang. She answered it "Hello." Hermione answered.

"Hey Mione do you wanna have lunch with me and Luna today?" the voice was most definitely belonged to Ginny.

"Yeah ok, where at?" Hermione asked her.

"This new restaurant the The Three Season and Cauldron." she answered.

"Ok I'll be when I'm done with some stuff I have to do, so I'll see you soon." she told Ginny hanging up. Blaise made a pouting face.

"I wanted to the Three Season and Cauldron too."

"Blaise it just lunch." she answered him.

"Just Lunch, just lunch." he yelled. Hermione looked at him as if he had gone crazy. "Hermione The Three Season and Cauldron is the most popular restaurant. Do you know how hard it is to get a table? I mean I had to wait three hours on hold just to find out they were booked until next year december." Blaise rant.

"Ok I get it Blaise it hard to get a table. With all this craze the food better great not mediocre." Hermione said.

"The food is unbelievably good. I heard thing about it, they say on bite sends you to heaven and back. That it can cure almost any disease and some billionaire paid my weight in gold for a recipe only to be turned down. Does this sound like mediocre food to you" he ranted.

"Sound like a gossip and nonsense to me." Hermione stated in tone that said she didn't want to argue.

"You don't deserve to even step foot in there." Blaise whispered squinting his eyes at Hermione. He turned to go when Hermione said. "Blaise wait."

"Blaise can you to do a favor for me?" Hermione asked.

"Why?What is?" he asked.

"I need you to book a hotel room for me." She told him.

"Why should I ?" he asked sounding like a little child.

"Because if you do you can come to lunch with me." she bribed him.

"Alright you got yourself a deal." he said leaving her office.

Blaise Zabini love to watch other people shenanigans, but most of all he loved creating it. He a small smile creeped out on his face as he watched his computer screen. Hermione was in for a big surprise.


A beautiful brunette was currently strolling down Diagon Alley she turned her shoulder to she if she was being followed before turning the corner to Knockturn. She was shaking with fear. ' How are they going to take it.' she thought. She walked into a darkly lit pub and sat at the corner in the far back. Not that anyone could tell be there was someone else sating at her table with her.

"You failed me Astoria." the voice hissed.

"I'm sorry Master but he still hasn't given it to me." she replied.

"Don't make excuse you said you could do it." they spat coldly."I don't like to be disappointed,other have failed me and ended badly." Astoria tensed up try to shake the thought of what happened to the others.

"Please Master give me more time." she plead. "I'll use a love potion."

"No, no love potions that won't work at all. If he is to give it to you it must be true love."

Astoria lips quivered. What was she going to do? She need to get Draco to give it to her.

"I will give you one more chance."they said. "Fail me again if you dare. No get out of my sight you insolent useless girl." Astoria got up quickly out of her chair. "Thank you Master you're so gracious." she said quickly leaving the table. She didn't dare not turn back to take another look. She knew that her life depend on her getting the item.


Ginny and Luna idly chat to themselves as they waited for Hermione to arrived.

"What taking her so long." Ginny complained.

"She was probably got stuck by some Hympe." Luna said dreamily. Ginny smiled weakly at her friend she was used to her crazy ideas. That when she saw Hermione and behind her she couldn't believe her eyes… a guy. Hermione had a boyfriend and didn't tell her.

"Sorry I'm late." Hermione said as she slid in to the chair. "This is Blaise Zabini my co -worker." she added as she picked up the menu. Blaise smiled at the ladies and sat down. Ginny raised an eyebrow.

"Nice to meet you Blaise, I'm Ginny Potter and this is Luna Weasley." she said to him. Him smiled at both at Luna and Ginny.

"So, Hermione, Ernie wanted you to call him." Ginny said to her friend who was intently staring at the restaurant menu. Hermione lifted her head. "I won't call him." she answered.

"Why?" Ginny asked.

"Because he not my type." she told Ginny as she went back to looking at the menu. Ginny sighed not wanting to argue she instead looked at Blaise and gave a weak smile.

"So Blaise has anyone in the caught Hermione eye in the office to prompt her sudden change in appearance?" Ginny asked. Hermione stared at Ginny she knew it was weird she didn't mention her change, she thought maybe she just didn't notice. But of course nothing passes Ginny Potter. Hermione prayed that Blaise wouldn't say something stupid or not tell her about the bet.

Blaise looked at Hermione and then back at Ginny. He smirked this lunch could be interesting.

"Oh yes someone has." Blaise said. Hermione who was taking big worried gulps of water nearly choked and glared at Blaise trying to tell him to be quiet, he paid no heed.

"Really who?" Ginny said excitedly,that she was spot on.

"Our boss Draco Malfoy." He said in matter-of-fact tone. Now it was Ginny's turn to spit out her water.

"What?" Her and Luna said in unison. They both looked at a blushing and angry Hermione wide eyed. Blaise had a very smug look on his face happy with handy work took a sip of water looking the scene before him. He knew this isn't how he should repay Hermione for taking him out to lunch but he just couldn't help himself.

Hermione wasn't talking so he decide to talk for her. "Oh yes Hermione had a crush on Malfoy for a while know." Blaise told the girls. Then he motion them in toward him so he could whisper. "She trying to catch his attention but doesn't know how,can you give her a few pointers." Hermione couldn't hear what he told them, but raised an eyebrow knowing Blaise he said something stupid.

Ginny looked at Hermione and smiled. "So Hermione I was thought you hate his guts." Ginny said to her.

Hermione didn't know what to say she could tell them she was trying to seduce him for a bet or go along with Blaise's lie. "I things just happened." She said going along with the latter.

"Oh that so there is a thin line between love and hate." Ginny said giggling but she knew something was up Hermione Granger doesn't just fall in love, if Hermione didn't want to tell her, she would get the truth out of her later.

"But Luna has some good news also." Ginny added beaming at her friend.

"I'm pregnant." Luna said in a sing song voice.

"Now that you mention it you're glowing, no radiating more like." Hermione said. Hermione couldn't help but feel a twinge of sadness come over,all her friends were happily married with kids and she was still alone. Not that didn't mind that but every once in a while it one get lonely. Hermione could never find someone who holds her interest or even understands her. Hermione repressed her depressing thoughts and smiled at Luna, who was beaming at everybody.

"I know my mother will be happy about the new edition to the Weasley family." Ginny cooed.

Blaise and Hermione felt a little awkward at the table as the two ladies busily chatted about morning sickness, mood swing and other pregnant pangs, but felt relieved when the waiter came to take their orders.

"Hermione you wanted pointers will here is one make plenty of eye contact." Ginny stated. Hermione kept a gag ,every time she looked at Malfoy made her want to punch him.

"Another help him relax." Ginny continued.

"Yeah like give him a massage." Blaise added "If a girl gave me a massage I would marry he on the spot." Hermione was repulsed, didn't like looking at how could she touch him.

"You know what I heard." Luna interrupted. "Pomegranates help a man's sex drive."

"Yeah Hermione slip him some pomegranates juice." Blaise wiggling his eyebrows up and down.

"They say wearing lots of red helps." Ginny interjected. Hermione always had a fondness for the color red.

"Malfoy told me he likes when a woman smell natural so lay of the perfume." Blaise said as the waiter place a plate in front of him. "Also I speak for all men when I said I love when a girl eats chocolate in front of me." Hermione raised an eyebrow who like to see a girl eating chocolate.

"Blaise you're not like every men your taste in women are weird." Hermione told him. Blaise stuck his tongue out at her.

"The way to a man heart is food that was true for Ron." Luna said sticking her fork in to her steak.

Hermione was red as beet listen to their pointers when finally she had a enough and said "Ok I think I heard enough pointer. Let's eat and not talk about that please." Ginny and Blaise laughed at their friend's reaction and Luna was globing down her food not pay any attention. They complied with Hermione's plead and didn't bring up anything about the subject. Hermione was relieved they end their awkward convo so she could eat in peace. The food was great just like Blaise had said not that she would tell him that.
