Chapter 3
Two months had passed since Hermione and Draco started working together and they were becoming closer. Draco still couldn't get Hermione to talk about her life; he wanted to know about her. It was November 13th and Draco's 19th Birthday. Hermione woke up and went through her usual morning ritual.
"Morning Ron" Hermione said as she put her bowl in the sink that she had just finished eating her porridge out of.
"Hu" grunted Ron. He hated early mornings 'why, if he hates them so much does he get up early for' Hermione said to herself
"Hermy" she hated that name "What's that" Ron pointed to a small box in green wrapping paper at the side of her work bag
"Oh, its my friend at works birthday, so i thought id get him a small gift, to say thank you for all his hard work since he started on my ward"
"Him"
"Yes, my friend his a male"
"How old is he" Ron was now wide eyed and looking to kill
"19" Hermione said quietly
"WHAT, 19,19"
"Yes, Ron 19 today, is that a problem"
"Hermione, i want you home by 7pm tonight, your not going out if you get asked to" Ron grabbed her waist violently "GOT IT" he shouted in her face. Hermione nodded and he let go
"Ron, how am i suppose to be home by 7 if i finish at 7"
"I'll get you, ok" Hermione nodded and appareted out.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Hermione and Draco worked like every other day they worked together. Hermione gave Draco his little present
"Its not much, i didn't have time to go shopping so i just got you it on the spure of the moment" Draco opened the box to reveal a Doctors watch that clipped on to his white jacket, in the middle it had a small green snake.
"I love it, thank you Hermione. Im having a small dinner party, actually very small just me and Mum, would you like to come, she would to see you, ive told her about our past"
Hermione could have cried, she really wanted to go but she wasn't allowed. The promise she made to herself come back into her head 'never walk in anyone's shadow'
"Draco, id love too, but i can't. Ron wants me home early tonight, he'll be here any minute"
"He can come too"
"You don't want him there"
"No, i don't, but if it means you coming then i guess he can come"
"No, Draco sorry, i carnt tonight" she kissed him on the cheek "Night, have a good dinner" Draco appareted out in front of her eyes. Just a second later Ron appareted in front of her
"Come on" He grabbed her wrist and apparated her home.

Earlier that day...
"Hey guys" Ron opened the house door to see Seamus and Dean. He invited them in.
"Hey Ron"
All 3 boys sat down and talked about their school days, they hadn't seen each other since graduation.
"Ron, How long has Hermione been friends with Malfoy" said Dean and Seamus nodded
"WHAT" shouted Ron
"Saw them at the hospital. Sue's mum was visiting a friend. Sue had to go too since she's a family friend and i went along" Seamus and Susan Bones were engaged to be married. "Well we saw Dean there and all decided to go to the canteen"
"We saw Malfoy and Hermione chatting, Malfoy's a doctor there now. They were looking very friendly"
"Yeah, thought something happened with you too, they was hanging off each other most of the time, laughing and everything" Dean said
"I asked the elf at the counter" said Seamus "she said that Doctor Malfoy and Healer Granger have been coming here together every lunch time for the past few months, and the Draco is Hermione's trainee Doctor who works on her ward"
Ron sat there and let Seamus and Dean talk about Hermione and Malfoy. After they had gone he decided to see them for him self.
He walked over to the wine cupboard to get a shot of fire whiskey and thinking over his plan to see if there was anything between Hermione and Malfoy.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
