Chapter 3

Draco clearly remembered being aghast still even after a couple of minutes later when the social worker, having talked to Gladys the receptionist just outside the room, entered the hospital canteen. The young man, even through his shock of hearing the elder Malfoy's name, was very surprised to find that the social worker was a woman, and heck a stunning one, who went by the name of Violette Irving Peterson. She was in fact a muggle and a lawyer, who worked in a muggle-wizard company. The muggles there took a vow of life-time secrecy about wizarding world and were sort of like squibbs, in wizard-terms. That was how Draco met Violette and grew to love this woman of high spirit and ambition. That day she told him everything about his money and property and his privileges and possibilities through out life but she had not much to tell of how and why he remembered nothing of the past year, for not even the wizarding kind knew much. So it remained a mystery to everyone even these days.

He was snapped out of thoughts by a gentle kiss on his left cheek, "huh!"

Violette laughed, she was quite used to him loosing the thread of reality at times for a couple of minutes. So when Draco did, she tried not to disturb him much, only when necessary, "I have to go, love. Jobs to do, people to help". She was buttoning her blouse already, "You breakfast is on the table, still hot and even if its not, you still have a wand". She loved seeing magic, although worked with it already five years.

Draco groaned, "Do you like HAVE to go? C'mon, you were at work in the morning…"

"Yes, I was and now my lunch break is finished. You know, SOME of us have work in the morning and lunch after 12 and SOME only wake up at lunch which is already like breakfast for you. Okay, I'll move or I'll start rambling". Draco was about to say something but Violette interrupted him, "And don't start with your 'you don't have to work' thing".

The young man looked gloomily at her, "Well, you see, its only 1 o'clock, which means you have the whole hour yet…"

"But don't forget I have no wand so there is a no-no to appearating", Violette said mockingly as if explaining something to a three-year old, "So I have to travel by car to the other end of the city. Not my faults your penthouse is in the 'posh' part of the city". She made quotation marks with her fingers, rolling her eyes.

"Hey, you forget I have a wand. So I can appearate you along a bit later", he said, rolling across the bed to where Violette was and hugging her across the middle.

"Hm, well, I suppose that would be okay…"

But before she could say something else Draco pulled her on top of him into a big WET smooch.

"Hey! I told you you kiss like a bucket full of water", Violette said through giggles, getting up.

"Where are you headed, gorgeous?" asked Draco with an irresistible smile.

"Well, that's my business suit I wearing so I'll have to get rid of it", she said winking and returning the smile.

"Hm, great idea, how didn't I think of that myself…" he said amusedly, watching Violette reveal her gorgeous nude body.

An hour later there was a pop across the city in the judicial branch of M&W Inc. (Muggle and Wizard Incorporated) and two figures appeared in the main office which looked like a big studio with ten desks for the workers. By luck the only man in the Judicial branch was the boss, but he was currently on two week 'business' trip in Hawaii with his new long-legged blonde and blue-eyed 'business partner'. So there wasn't much commotion when in front of the room two kissing people appeared. The office population cheered and hooted. Violette stepped a couple of inches back from Draco, blushed and smiled, looking him over. No wonder there was so much excitement. Her boyfriend's only garment was a blanket around his waist which he held with one hand. His shoulder and arm muscles were alert and his stomach had an apparent six-pack. A loose strand of hair fell on his face, covering his eye. He looked as if he stepped out of a magazine.

Draco looked at Violette side ways, flashing her one of THOSE smiles. The whole situation amused him very much. Violette felt the same way, listening to all the hooting and even whistling. She was blushing furiously now. Draco decided to play it off further. With the free hand he gently turned her face to him. Violette's cheeks were a bit pink. She was holding his gaze steadily. Mischief flashed in his steel grey eyes. He took her face with both hands into a deep kiss. Violette heard the hoots and cheering louder now. Was it because of the kiss? Wait… no… there TWO hands on her face… then that means…

There was excited laughter and voices around the office now. Violette didn't dare open her eyes. She could feel Draco smiling. Then she couldn't hold it anymore and burst out laughing and stepped a foot away from him. The entire female population was giggling like school girls. Violette looked at Draco in the eyes through giggles. He shrugged, smiling amusedly, picked up the blanket from the floor and vanished with a pop back to his luxurious apartment.

When Violette made her way to her desk, her cheeks were blazing scarlet. All over the office, ladies buzzed excitedly, giving her the jealously amused eye or talking directly to her. This was the talk for a week to come, of that Miss Peterson was quite aware and tried to prepare herself for that, after all there was absolutely nothing to be ashamed of, only entirely to be proud!
