Chapter 18 Hermione's Announcement
Hermione got ready and went to work taking a surprised Draco with her. She got into her office after receiving tons of odd looks. She instructed her secretary to call the press and all the department heads to meet her in the conference room.
She and Draco were waiting when a couple dozen people arrived including the mother daughter writing pair, the Skeeters, Kenneth and Harry.
"Every, quiet!" Hermione said loudly to the group of people. "I have brought everyone together for a very important announcement."
"Are you and the death eater getting married?" Gail Skeeter yelled from with in the crowd, her purple quick quote quill posed and ready. She looked exactly like a younger version of her mother only more sluttly, what a much better way to get a man to talk.
"No I'm not, but I am quitting my job! I have decided that you need some one who is ready to take the responsibility seriously and can leave their heart at home." Hermione's words didn't sound at all like a hollow, rehearsed speech because it came from her heart.
"You mean to say, you rather be with him," Gail was saying as she pointed at Draco who was standing quietly next to Hermione. "He is more important than being Minister of Magic."
"No I'm saying my wind is blowing me in a different direction. I am going to be working doing something a little less stress full like being on the accidental magic reversal squad, hopefully. Maybe I can help some one else achieve their dreams while I make mine come true. I became Minister of Magic to fullfill my dream and I have. So as my last official law I say there is a ban on quick quote quills. Now I officially step down and in my place a capable person will be put." Hermione received a round of applause from all the department heads while the reporters looked at each other with discuss.
Harry walked over to Hermione. "Nice job, Hermione." He said as he looked at her.
"What no sarcasm?"
"Hermione, I'm your best friend and I'm going to stand by you no matter what." Harry said as he smiled warmly. "Even if it is dating, Malfoy."
"Face it you just can't stand the idea of it." Malfoy said as he put his arm around Hermione.
"You guys should try to friends." Hermione said as she hugged Draco.
"So is Draco your date for tomorrow." Harry asked looking at the two.
"If it's okay?" Hermione said looking at Harry like you better not say no.
"Of course, he is welcome as long as he's with you." Harry said, "But if you excuse me I have to get back to work."
"You mean you have to go back and lounge in your office." Hermione said with a laugh.
"Of course, you didn't actually think I was doing work." Harry said back as he walked away.
"I have to clean out my desk before we can go home." Hermione said to Draco as she directed him out of the room, avoiding the reporters.
