Chapter 10:
Back to The Real World
Hermione had had a long day. When she apparated at Godric's Hollow, she didn't expect everyone to be there but they were. The Weasley's, the Potters, Neville, Hannah, Lavender, Sirius, Lupin, Tonk, Luna and some weird looking guy (Rolf). Hermione talked to each of them. She explained that she was okay at Malfoy Manor, she said Malfoy avoided her and the house elf served her.
"What happened when Malfoy got hurt?" Harry asked.
"Nothing, I made a few potions for him," Hermione replied.
"You made the potions?" Ron asked.
"Snape asked me to so yes I did," Hermione replied.
"You must be tired," Ginny said before Ron could continue.
"I am," Hermione replied.
"I've set up the guest bedroom for you," Ginny said.
"Ginny thanks but I think I wanna go home," Hermione said.
"Wouldn't it be better to stay here for a night dear," Molly persisted.
Hermione was going to argue when she saw the motherly love in Molly's eyes. I wish my mum was here, even my dad. Voldermort killed them Hermione, stop dwelling on it.
"Ok," Hermione gave in.
Molly ran to Hermione and started to hug her. Tears were falling out of both women's eyes.
"I'm so glad your ok," Molly whispered. "It felt like I had lost a daughter."
Hermione didn't reply. She was crying, then Ginny was crying and so was Hannah and Lavender.
"Women," Ron muttered as the men left the room.
"I thought…I thought I would never get out," Hermione said wiping away her tears. "Ginny thank you, if you hadn't figured out a way out…"
"Your smartness rubbed off on me," Ginny chuckled wiping away her tears.
Hermione smiled, "It's midnight."
"Yea it is, you need to get some rest," Ginny said.
"Yea I do," Hermione hugged everyone in turn, "I'll see you all tomorrow."
"Harry has sorted the Ministry by the way," Ginny called, Hermione turned around, "You can have the next few days off."
"I've known Harry for what, ten, eleven years? And the boy still doesn't know me!" Hermione said. "I'll be at work tomorrow." Hermione went up stairs.
Ginny smiled. Thank Merlin, she's alive.

Hermione entered the guest room, it was painted peachy. Warm tones. As she changed and got into the bed, she found herself missing Malfoy's bed. Only because it was bigger.
And because it had the Malfoy cologne smell on it.
No, it was just a huge bed nothing more.
Hermione closed her eyes, trying to forget the last few days.

Early in the morning, Draco was awake, he had slept in his own bed for the first time in weeks. He missed Hermione, he refused to admit it but he did miss her. He was waiting for Snape to arrive, to tell him what Voldermort had decided to do with him.
Snape arrived mid afternoon.
"Well?" Draco asked. "Am I getting the blame?"
"No," Snape smiled. "Albela is."
"What's going to happen to him?"
"Death," Snape replied.
Draco nodded, did he expect any less.
Snape continued to talk, Draco pretended to listen, his mind wondering to Hermione. She warmed up this house, and messed up the library. Why am I thinking about that mud… woman for.
Stop it Draco, you're a death eater.
Yea but if Snape hadn't come, she'd be mine.
No she wouldn't, Granger could change her mind fast.
She kissed me.
Obviously I'm irresistible.
Draco shook the thoughts out of his head. He started to listen to Snape.

It had taken weeks for Hermione to get back to normal. In two weeks after she returned to Harry's home, she went back to her own house. Pinky was glad to see her, the house was in the best of conditions. After two weeks and a day she returned to work, only because Molly would not allow her to return any earlier. So here she was in her office with the Malfoy file open while Ginny, Ron and Harry went to check a disturbance in a nearby village.
She sighed, there was a picture of Malfoy in the file, she picked it up. He is hot, he's hotter in person. If Snape never came that night…what would have happened?
"Hermione," Came the voice of Lavender who walked into her office.
"Hey Lavender, you ok?" Hermione asked.
"Yea. How are you?" Lavender asked.
"I'm ok," Hermione smiled.
"Good then you can come out to lunch with me," Lavender smiled. Lavender worked in the Department of Mysteries along with Hannah.
"Sure, where's Hannah?" Hermione asked.
"She'll meet us at the café I want to check out," Lavender smiled.
Hermione, Lavender, Hannah and Ginny would usually go to lunch together at least twice a week but recently with all the disturbances they haven't had time.
"Ginny won't be back for ages isn't it?" Lavender asked as they exited the ministry and walked up to Lamb's Café.
"Yea, they left like an hour ago," Hermione smiled as she noticed Hannah.
"You guys took your time!" Hannah said as they sat down, "I already order us toasted sandwiches."
"What filling?" Lavender asked.
"Chicken and you will not argue," Hannah warned, "I'm too hungry to fight."
Hermione and Lavender laughed.
"Sorry it was Hermione who delayed us," Lavender smirked.
"Lying cow," Hermione replied. She sometimes found it amusing how she and Lavender were friends, after all Lavender went out with Ron, then Hermione then Lavender. She was surprised they were such good friends.
"Finally," Hannah muttered as the food arrived, Lavender and Hermione fought back a laugh.
"So how are you Hermione?" Hannah asked half way through the sandwich.
"If anyone else asks me that I'm gonna blow them up!" Hermione replied.
Hannah and Lavender laughed.
"She's fine," Lavender laughed. "Normal Hermione."
"So any more attacks or anything lately?" Hermione asked.
"No none really, just an odd few, nothing major," Lavender replied.
"Oh, I though I was missing reports, guess not then," Hermione replied.
"So what was it like, staying with Malfoy," Hannah asked.
"You really don't wanna know," Hermione sighed.

"You want to set up a trap for an auror?" Draco asked Lotin.
"The Dark Lord wants an auror dead," Lotin replied. "Preferably that mudblood."
Draco nodded, "Did the Dark Lord tell you?"
"No he told Blaise, who isn't here yet I see," Lotin looked around the Manor.
"No not yet," Draco snarled. Lotin remained silent as they waited for Blaise Zabini to arrive.
"Well?" Draco asked.
"The Dark Lord wants an auror dead, set a trap do what ever, he wants a body." Zabini said.
"Why am I not being told this myself?" Draco asked.
"Snape said you might not be up to it," Zabini answered quietly.
"Did he know?" Draco sneered.
"You can still be there but you don't have to be the one planning it," Zabini replied.
"Fine but half of the death eaters I command are either dead or in need of medical attention. All we have is me, you, Lotin, Goyle and Hoyland," Draco replied.
"You get to meet the new team tonight, and the at least you have your favourite death eaters," Zabini smirked.
"Yea yea," Draco rolled his eyes. "When are we – you lot executing your plan?"
"Tomorrow night," Zabini smirked. "That auror Jack, he's one of us, we'll just get him to get another auror at the location we pick."
"Just don't tell Jack the whole plan, he might change sides AGAIN!" Lotin said.
Zabini nodded. Draco watched him. He's going to fail this.

Hermione entered her small house, she liked it like this, two bedrooms, a library, an office downstairs, kitchen, living room, back room and two bathrooms. Okay so it wasn't too small, it was normal. She was alone, she didn't need more space. The extra bedroom was for one of the others if they felt like staying over.
She sighed as she placed her bag down. She wanted a bath. She ran the water when an owl arrived at her window.
Hermione, Andrew Jack from our department thinks he has a lead on where one death eater is hiding, maybe two. He said he is going to check it out tomorrow, do you feel up to going with him or should I send Ron?
Harry
Hermione grabbed a parchment and a quill:
Yes Harry I'm up for it, send the details on where I am to meet him and times any details he sent you. Pinky will take the owl.
Hermione
"Daisy," Hermione called. Why did I say that? "Pinky."
"Yes Miss," Pinky said.
Just like Daisy, and every other house elf, idiot. "An owl will come from Harry with some work details, make sure you take every piece of parchment which arrives."
"Yes Miss Granger," Pinky smiled.
Hermione ran her water and got into her bath. Please don't let Malfoy be involved tomorrow.
