YOU DON'T RECOGNIZE HERE ARE MINE, NOT J.K ROWLINGS.
Hermione collapsed on the couch, exhausted after a very busy day at work. Her stomach rumbled slightly, but the though of having to cook simply made her legs ache in protest. I guess it's time for my back up plan... Hermione thought, rising from her couch and exiting her apartment. She made her way across the hall to the apartment next to hers, knocking on the door. A very cheerful Ron opened the door.
"Mione! I was just about to go round and invite you over for dinner. Ginny's stopped by!" He said, ushering his exhausted friend inside.
"Good, because I really don't feel like cooking today."
"Just sit on the couch in the living room, Harry and Ginny are in there already." He said, making his way to the kitchen. Hermione nodded and followed the front hall through to a large room further back in the apartment which contained several large couches and a large Magic Vision (a Wizards version of the Muggle TV.)
"Hey Herm, did Ron go fetch you?" Harry said, making room for on the couch.
"No, I came myself. I was going to scam dinner off you again." Harry grinned at his friend.
"One step ahead of us."
"Hey Herm!" Ginny said. Hermione turned to the red head who was sitting on another couch.
"Hey! How have you been?"
"Good. Work's been a bit hectic, so many raids lately." Ginny said, smiling rather tiredly. The red head had followed her father's footsteps and become head of the Muggle Relations department in the Ministry.
"I know, I've been busy lately too with all these shoots."
"Speak for yourselves ladies, me and Ron have been doing nothing!"
"Lucky bastard, only because it's not Quidditch Season." Ginny said huffily.
"Well, what can I say?" Harry said, leaning back on the couch in a relaxed position.
"Shouldn't you be training or something?"
"We are, we get together with the team twice a week. But because the seasons so far we don't do much."
"Why does that not surprise me?" Hermione said, shaking her head at her best friend. Both Harry and Ron were playing the positons of Seeker and Keeper respectively for the English Quidditch team.
They had both matured over the years, but their sense of humour and adventure had yet to abandon them. Both boys had steady girlfriends, Harry dating a Witch Weekly Journalist he had met during an interview and Ron dating a Ministry Official in the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes.
"Dinners ready!" Ron shouted, in a purpusely feminine voice.
"Are you really sure he's not gay?" Hermione asked Harry.
"I know, I was suspicious for a while as well, but then Jessica came along and washed away my doubts." Harry said cheekily, referring to Ron's girlfriend.
Hermione just shook her head as the three of them rose from their position on the couch and made their way to the dining room, where they once again resumed their seats on the wooden table.
Ron came in shortly after carrying a large plate sporting a leg of lamb. All four of them licked their lips in aprehension as Ron cut everyone a slice and poured them drinks from a giant jug of butter beer in the centre of the table.
"Tuck in!" He said eagerly, picking up his cutlery and attacking his plate like someone who hadn't eaten in months. Harry also attacked his plate, though in a slightly more refined way.
"So you'll never guess who I met in Flourish and Blott's today." Ginny said conversationally once everyone was well into their meal.
"Who?"
"Draco Malfoy." Harry and Ron, both holding up a large forkful of food, dropped their cutlery in shock.
"What?" They said in unison.
"Malfoy?" Ron said disgustedly.
"Yeah. You know how during the war he turned to our side? Well now he's working as an Auror."
"I knew that much. I come across him sometimes when I'm called on missions." Aside from Quidditch, Harry Potter was also the Minstry's best Auror. His skills in the past at dealing with Dark Wizards had earned him a high position very quickly.
However the Ministry only called him in on really serious cases, not wanting to bother the Famous Harry Potter when it came to insignificant matters, especially with his other time demanding career as Captain of the English Quidditch Team.
"Really? And you never mentioned it?" Hermione said curiously.
"What was the point?" Harry said, shrugging.
"Anyways, did you talk to him?" Hermione said, steering the conversation back to Ginny.
"Yeah, I did. He's still very arrogant, but charming in that annoying Malfoy way. But he's not longer a prat, he's matured a lot."
"Did we organize to meet him again?" Hermoine said suggestively.
"Wel..l. er... we did actually." The red head said, blushing a deep red.
"W... what?" Ron spluttered. "You're seeing the evil git again?"
"He's not evil anymore, and he's not a git either."
"How do you know?"
"I don't, but I'd like to believe it." Ginny said determindly. Ron sighed, obviously defeated.
"Fine, I suppose I can't prevent you from seeing him, just... watch out okay?" Ron said, always the protective brother. Ginny smiled, not trusting herself to reply for fear she would enrage her older brother.
Hermione smiled at the red headed girl. 'Poor girl, she's never really had a decent boyfriend because of that silly crush on Harry. Maybe Draco will be good for her... providing he doesn't hurt her. I wonder if he really has changed...'
