A/N: So this ones short, but I didn't want to add anymore to it, it felt right to stop here. So as of today I'm officially prt of the Pottermore Beta period, which I am so excited for. Hermione and Draco's relationship will be skipped a little now, fast forwarded, they are spending time together it is fun.
Disclaimer: If only I was brilliant enough to come up with all of this. JKR is like my fricking idol.
Expect the Unexpected
Chapter 7: Rubbish Explanations
A week had past and it was Thursday morning, she was sitting in Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour, waiting for Harry, Ron and Ginny. Her head was swimming with questions she wanted to ask them. The week had been an eventful one, she had tried to visit and call her parents but they had kiked her out and ignored her calls, they were still mad at her and it killed her knowing that they weren't talking to her. However on the up side, she had spent the whole week hanging out with her friends and Draco whom she had gotten close to over the week. She had found im really easy to talk to and incredibly funny. He knew how to blend into the muggle world like he had lived there all his life.
"Hermione!" She was shaken from her thoughts by a screaming Ginny who ran over and gave her a hug. Harry and Ron followed suit and sat down, after ordering an ice cream sundae they sat in silence, until Hermione spoke.
"So what's been going on?" Today she was dressed in muggle clothes, simple plain and jeans. The Hermione the wizarding world new, she was the complete opposite to the Hermione her muggle friends know.
"Nothing much, just work really. you?" There was something they weren't telling her and she was going to get it out of them, even if it killed her. Since defeating Voldemort, Harry and Ron had landed Jobs in the ministry, working as Aurors. Hermione however had gone back to Hogwarts to complete her final year.
"Work? That's it? You've been too busy to owl me because of work?" Hermione was fuming, she was standing now.
"Hermione, please calm down. It's this case we're working on, we didn't want to worry you or anything..."
"Worry me? I spent almost 7 years fighting along side you Harry Potter, and you think wou'll worry me?"
"Ok fine, just sit down and listen. There's a cult on the loose, they are targetting Muggleborns for the downfall of Voldemort, we are sorting it. I just thought you would like some time off, this is our job Hermione, it's our life, not yours."
"Oh that makes me feel a lot better now because it's your job, I'm not allowed to know because it is threatening to me, I have the right to know what is going on." She stormed out, the two Weasleys and Potter following her. She picked up her pace and began to walk away from them when she walked smack bang into a body and fell back. An arm outstretched to help her up, she took it and was pulled up to face a blonde head smiling at her. She was relieved to see his face. If somebody had told me two weeks ago that I would be pleased to see Draco Malfoy, I would have hexed them so hard they wouldn't be able to stand. But now I couldn't imagine life without his frienship.
"Stay away from her Malfoy" Ron had raced up to witness Malfoy helping her up.
"RON! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" And with that she apparated back home, and screamed.
In mid scream she was interrupted by the apparation of Harry. Ron and Ginny had stayed down Diagon Alley to collect her things, they would meet arry back home later.
"Hermione please just listen, if we told you anything, our jobs are compromised, I've only told you now because we know you won't say anything."
"I just don't understand why you couldn't of atleast owled me, to atleast tell me how you were. I've had no contact with you for months..."
Harry went into his pocket and pulled out a small charm, it was a Ministry of Magic charm, which Harry was looking at. "It's like the coins for the D.A, lets us aurors stay in touch." His face dropped "No not again, Hermione I've got to go, there's been another attack"
"Is there anything I can do?"
"No, look I've got to go, I'll talk to you later" And with that Harry apparated, leaving a confused Hermione alone in her house.
A/N: Short, sweet and direct to the point, Hermione feels this way because of Harry and Ron not staying in touch with her after such a hard time, they fought Voldemort together, lost many friends and then they abandon her and so no excuse is worthy.
