This is the missing scene from Chapter Eight, I didn't think of it until I
had finished the chapter then I didn't want to put it in because I thought
the last chapter worked well.
So this bit slots in after Harry has left the Leaky Cauldron. Don't worry this is just short little bit.

Eight and Three Quarters
"What's wrong with him?" asked Hermione.
"Um, I think you pissed off his friends" replied Ron
"His friends?" she asked "As in Malfoy and his flavour of the month?"
"Well what did you expect; he hasn't been allowed contact with us or anybody else who knew who he really was in about six months. Except Malfoy" 'God' he said in his head, 'I thought she was meant to be the smart one' "It was sort of inevitable they would come to some kind of understanding"
"I, but, he's Malfoy, you know the boy who tried to torture us for most of out school years. Ferret boy?" she said trying to make her husband see sense "Not to mention the seventh year, he was part of the attack on Hogwarts. I was pregnant and nearly lost Sarah that day"
"Hermione, you know as well as I do that the Death Eaters still at school were as shocked as the rest of us when the attack started. And in case you hadn't noticed the attack wasn't exactly biased. Several bodies were found with the dark mark, hit by their own curses"
Hermione knew it was true, but she wanted somebody to blame for everything she had gone through, and Malfoy, who seemed willing to feel guilty, was easy to blame.
"That bitch slapped me" was all she could say.

Once more if you read the last chapter before I changed it, (then you're really quick), Sarah was meant to be a baby but I changed my mind. Now she's um, sixish.
