~Monday
Hermione was in the kitchen having breakfast when Lucius came in.
'Morning, sorry got tied up with work again last night. I will be home at 5 and we can spend some time getting to know each other. Here is my card if you want to go to Diagon Ally and shop, you can use this in muggle London too if you want something from that side.' handing Hermione his black credit card. He gave her a kiss on the cheek and left, at 8 o'clock he flooed back into the library.
'So sorry dear, work has been an absolute nightmare this week. Have you had dinner yet?'
'Yes, but I will sit with you while you eat yours.'
'Oh thank you but I need to finish up one more letter tonight. I will see you in the morning.' giving her a kiss on the cheek.
