Chapter 8: Susan and a Jog
(A Hermione Narrative)
It was a nice day out, a little rainy but nice enough. I was in the office when she walked through the door. She had on the timeless miniskirt and see through blouse on, what a way to attract the boss.
When I was in the coffee room Liz came in and started to talk, "Hey did you see that new girl, what a tart."
"I know, I helped hire her," I said with a sigh.
"What do you mean?" she asked.
"Exactly what I said, I helped hire her," I pronounced the words in syllables so no more questions could be asked.
"Mione? Why would you do that, I know how you feel about those kinds of people and this isn't like you," she said.
"I know, but I'm leaving and Mr. Malfoy wanted a tart secretary," I said sighing about the truth.
"Go figure, he just wants someone that he can get into their knickers," she said laughing.
"Yea." I trailed off. "I think I'm going to go back to my flat, I suddenly don't feel well. If you want to you can come take a run with me," I said.
"I would like that, c'mon, let's go," she said as she got up.
Just as they were leaving Draco was walking by, "By the way I'm leaving for the day Malfoy, you can reach me on my spell," I said happily.
"Okay but." and then before he could say anymore I walked out the door.
When we were jogging Liz said, "You seemed pretty upset at the whole Susan Parker thing."
"Upset, what are you talking about?" I asked trying to hide what was really there.
"Yea, you had a look of pure hatred in your eyes when the tart walked in. Now what can that mean?" she said jokingly.
"I do not know," I said as I kept jogging. "You like him!" she said.
"I like him?!" I yelled back.
"You like him!"
"I like him?!" I waited a few moments and then said, "Okay it's your turn now."
"Fine, you don't like him the conversation never happened sister," she said.
"Never went there girlfriend, and besides if something was going to happen it would have happened already." I said.
"I agree, and I don't know what you're talking about," she said. We walked back to my flat and then had some V8 splash. We didn't even mention Malfoy at all after and then I got the mail.
In the mail was an invitation to the "Young Wizard's Benefit ball," at Hogwarts. I was being invited as a guest of honor, along with Malfoy. and Susan.
"Very interesting," said Liz, "but, you need something to wear."
"I'll just wear one of my three piece sets," I answered, I didn't like to get dressed up and this was not an exception.
"Come now, I'll bring you to 'Wand & Taylor's' to get you a dress," she grabbed my arm and dragged me to my BMW.
