A/N: I do not own Harry Potter or the characters

Hermione and Ginny were walking in the garden when they saw a luxury taxi drive up to the front entrance. After a moment, a beautiful woman stepped out of the taxi and looked up at the steps. Hermione thought she looked familiar.

"Ginny, who is that women?" Hermione asked as they stayed out of sight. Ginny looked up and gasped.

"That's Josephine Baker!" Hermione gave Ginny a blank look. "You know – the Baker family? Her mother, Anna, is the owner of that fashion magazine Perfect. I love that magazine. I get all my fashion tips from there." She shook her head. "Anyways, her and Draco dated awhile ago." She frowned. "Everyone knew that she just wanted his family power and money and nobody could figure out why he dated her. I guess we figured that he just wanted someone who liked power as much as his family. Anyways, when he started being nice to people and interested in muggle things, Josephine was furious. She didn't want him to become a charity case- she wanted all the money and power. I'm not sure what she doing here now. I thought they broke up awhile ago – before Draco came here. Actually, from what I understand the last year of their relationship was pretty cold and not really a relationship anyways."

"So, what is she doing here now?" Hermione was confused. Draco kissed her last night and was so wonderful, but now his ex-girlfriend is coming around?

"I don't know." Ginny wondered. She then rushed to comfort Hermione. "I'm sure it's nothing Hermione! Look, there goes Blaise now!" The two girls crept closer to hear their conversation. When that didn't work, Hermione cast a spell that allowed for Ginny and her to have super hearing. A dangerous spell (especially if a plane came by), but a good one for situations like these.

As Blaise teased Josephine, Ginny and Hermione tried to understand what was going on. Finally, Josephine handed Blaise a letter and got into the taxi. Hermione took the spell off their ears quickly.

"What was that? Ginny, was Draco with another girl last night?"

"WHAT?" Ginny shouted. Hermione gave her an odd look and then tried another spell to adjust her hearing to normal. Hermione repeated her question. "Not that I know of. I think we should ask Blaise about this."

The girls went up the stairs that had just been vacated by Josephine and Blaise. As they walked into the Great Hall, they saw Blaise and Draco, collapsed in chairs, groaning.

"What's wrong?" Ginny gasped, running over to Blaise. Blaise groaned loader (as Draco stopped and glared at him) until Ginny was right by him…

"Gotcha!" he yelled as he grabbed Ginny onto his chair for a passionate kiss. After a moment, Draco cleared his throat.

"I'm glad that you can use my problems in such a beneficial manner." Draco sourly stated to Blaise.

"Sorry, mate. I just love to see Ginny jump."

"Anyways…"

"What is going on?" Hermione interrupted. "We just saw Josephine Baker here and heard Blaise telling her that you were in France with some women!"

"Hermione," Draco stood up and walked over to her. Hermione felt her knees tremble as he came to stand over her, but didn't move. Draco signed. "Josephine doesn't want to let me go. She is determined to have me and my money and power." He shook his head angrily. "I don't know what to do! It is over, but she just will not go away!" He looked over at Blaise. "And now, she charmed a letter she gave Blaise and knows that I am here. She will be back any minute."

"So?" Hermione didn't see the problem. "Just tell her to go away!"

"Unfortunately, it's not that simple." Draco began to pace the hall. "Josephine is a determined young lady who will not take 'go away' as a response. She knows I don't love her. She knows she doesn't love me. But, she wants loves every other part of my life!" He stopped and looked at Hermione. "She just won't go away."

"Why don't you just cloak the estate? Then she can't find you."

"Hermione, I'm not going to stop living my life just because a crazy woman will not leave me along. No, we will just have to put up with her until… well, until she gets the idea that nothing will ever happen." Draco sighed and flopped back down into the chair. A few minutes later, the group heard a taxi arrive and a furry of steps coming toward them. The doors to the great hall burst open as a furious Josephine came rushing in.

"DRACO!" Josephine roared as she walked toward them. As she came closer, she looked Hermione and Ginny up and down with distain. Hermione gazed calmly back at her. Josephine met her gaze with furry until, finally, she calmed as well and turned toward Draco. "Draco," she cooed softly. "Did you have a good trip to Paris?"

Draco didn't move from the chair. His face stayed as still as stone. "I didn't go to Paris Josephine."

"Really? But Blaise said that you had left with another woman." Josephine tried to play innocent at the situation.

"He misunderstood."

"So, where were you when I arrived this morning?" Josephine was beginning to get impatient again with the situation. Why wasn't Draco jumping up to greet her? His girlfriend?

"I was more pleasantly engaged, I'm afraid."

Josephine frowned. "Really? I can't image what would be more pleasant than being with your girlfriend."

Draco leaned forward and rested his elbows on his knees. "If you were my girlfriend, it would be pleasant. But, Josephine, you forget that we are no longer dating. I thought I made that quite clear when I left London."

Josephine's face clouded. "Draco, that was just a misunderstanding. You know how – " she suddenly became very aware of the people around them. "Draco, can we please talk in private about this?"

"I don't see why they can not hear what you have to say."

Josephine paused a moment. "Fine. You know how much I love you and would do anything for you. I would even move out of London to some place like this!" She waved her arms around to point to the estate.

"I am sorry that you do not share anything in common with my anymore Josephine. A 'place like this,' as you call it, is my home and I would not move back to London for all the money in the world. I would suggest that if you would like someone to support you in London that you start to groom another man."

Josephine looked shocked at his bluntness. "I am not leaving here Draco until you acknowledge that you love me!"

"That, I'm afraid, is quite impossible since it will never be true."

"We'll see about that!" Josephine began to walk upstairs. At the top, she turned around. "I will be staying in your guest room until you see how good I am Draco. I am the best women you will ever get! You just wait and see all that I can do!" She walked down the hall.

"Where is she going?" Blaise asked after a moment of silence.

"I would assume to figure out what room is closest to mine." Draco said, smiling. Hermione was confused, and furious.

"Why are you smiling? She is going to stay here for god knows how long! And right by your room! I can't imagine what she will sneak in to do to you at night!"

"Maybe I should put her room by mine," Blaise joked. Ginny punched him in the arm. "Ow!"

Draco stood up and walked to look out the window. "Ah, but you forget what kind of house this is. As long as I don't want Josephine here, the house will make sure that her stay is the worst one possible." He turned around, grinning. "This actually will work very well for us. If we can handle her for a week, I think that the house will convince her to not want anything to do with me or my family again." He snapped his figures and the elderly house elf appeared. "We are having another guest in the house this week. She will be very temperamental and demanding, but please try to accommodate her." The house elf turned to go away. "Oh! And please make sure that you follow the house clock for all meals and appointments relating to her."

Hermione look to Draco. "House clock?"

"Yes, the house will make sure that she is given nothing but wrong information – at least about our schedules. It's a very small action, but a very annoying one." Draco walked toward the glass doors leading to the gardens. "In the meantime, would you and Ginny like to stay as my guest while Josephine is around? I don't think I could handle it otherwise."

Hermione looked to Ginny, who eagerly nodded. "Of course. But, Draco – I don't think I will be able to be nice to Josephine for a whole week."

Draco laughed. "You don't have to be. Just enjoy it though. I think it will be lots of fun! Now, shall we walk around the gardens and see if we can find some frogs to sing to Jo?"

A/N: I hope that you like where this is going! If you can think of any other situations, I would appreciate it! And Hermione is staying at the estate still which will bring in some great 'night-time' conversations! ;)
