Chapter 2 reunion…

Hermione's POV

To my horror, it was Draco Malfoy!

He wore a white towel around his perfectly beautiful waist and nothing more.

Ugh! Did I say perfectly beautiful? What I meant was sexy and daring. No, waitthat's not right. It's a ferret's body for crying out loud! Never mind.

He was walking towards me. He grabbed a small bag and threw it to me. Did he even recognize me? I think not. He wouldn't touch a single hair if he knew it was me.

"Take that Granger, get a shower and leave" He said after a few seconds. His cold voice made me shiver. I felt hot tears forming in my eyes. He knew all along.

I held the silk sheet against my body and strode across the room to where the bathroom is, grabbing my clothes on the way. I held my head up high, not wanting to give him the satisfaction of making me so helpless. But that's what just happened right? I was helpless, that's why I landed in this situation.

I went inside the bathroom. Barely hearing his comment "Like the feeling of the sheets, huh, Granger?"

Once inside, I rid myself of the covers and got dressed. Turned the shower on and let it soak me. Wanting to wash away whatever filth Malfoy had that became part of me. I sat there soaking wet, letting the lukewarm water wash away my tears. That's how I ended up in this very expensive bathroom.

Draco's POV

I can hear the continuous flow of the shower. She's been there for almost an hour! What was she doing?

I made a portkey for her to go home the instant she get out of that bathroom. I'm a very busy man you know. I have lots of paperwork in my study that needs signing today!

I ran out of patience so I stormed inside the bathroom, clutching the bag of galleons and the portkey. When I got inside I saw her with her clothes on, soaking wet under the shower. I was taken aback when she sobbed.

She was crying?

So much for Gryffindor courage.

I walked up to her.

"Here's a portkey and your money. Thanks for last night" I said plainly. Staring blankly at her.

She looked horror stricken. She grabbed the portkey and left, leaving the money in my hand.

Doesn't she need money?

I thought she was desperate! That's why she offered a one night stand! Oh, well.

I threw the bag of gold in the tub and left for work.

Hermione's POV

I saw myself inside my apartment. It wasn't much. Just right for me. It's along muggle London. Has two rooms, one as my office, the other my bedroom. A small kitchen at the far side, and a living room just before the door. The bathroom is inside my bedroom.

I was so distraught about what happened that I didn't notice a snowy owl on the kitchen table.

As soon as my head touched the pillow I fell into a deep slumber.

An hour or so later, I woke up feeling something heavy on my stomach.

"Hedwig! I'm so sorry. I didn't notice you coming in." Now I'm losing it, talking to an owl.

Hedwig gave me a blink as if she understood me. Then she raised one leg for me to untie.

Dear Hermione,

Thanks for the present. I would love to see you and Ron soon. Would it be okay if we all meet on Saturday?Ron and I had that day off. And since term won't be starting anytime soon, you can manage to go, right?

Well, see you soon!

hugs,

Harry and Ron

I managed to get Hedwig some water and a cracker as my heart sank.
