"Prat," Hermione mumbled as she shoved past him and headed towards the main staircase. 'I swear, he thinks he can control me. That I'll just do whatever he tells me to do. Well he's wrong!' She gave a loud frustrated sigh as she started walking once more. Her robe swayed behind her and she stalked away.

"Oh, Hermione," his voice drifted to her ear. She stopped where she was and turned around to look at him. As he stalked towards her she had her arms crossed and was giving him a deathly glare.

"Yes," she spat.

"Oh, nothing," he said as he slightly shoved against the wall.

She tried to push him off of her, but he was much stronger than her. "If you even think about it," she said as she pushed at his chest. He grabbed both of her wrists to stop her though.

"What are you going to do, if I do," he said huskily as brought his lips up to her ear.

She shuddered against him. He blew softly in her ear. She fought her hardest not to giggle but it tickled so. She finally let out a long awaited laugh but it soon ceased when his lips claimed hers. She knew it shouldn't have been a surprise that he was going to kiss her, but it was. So much a surprise she forgot who it was and started to kiss back.

He let her wrists go and he pushed her even closer to the wall as he slid his arms around her stomach. She slowly moved her arms around his neck and pulled him closer. She let her eyes flutter open. She went into complete shock for few seconds. Her mind suddenly screamed at her for doing this and then she proceeded to scream aloud.

"Ahhhhh! Oh my God, Draco," she sputtered pushing him as far away from her as possible "What the bloody hell do you think you're doing!"

"Well I think I was kissing my wife," he yelled back at her. He moved forward hoping to continue again but she walked away.

She kept looking back at him with anger and disbelief. She was flustered and her face was a bright pink. She held her head in one her hands as if she couldn't think straight.

She took a deep breath as she turned back towards him. A few moments of her staring at the ground and taking deep breaths she finally replied. "Don't touch me...ever again." She headed back towards the stairs as she held on tightly to rail. She felt as if her head was swimming, and the last thing she needed to do was fall down the stairs.

She came to the door that entered the dinning hall. She walked in still clutching her head. She had completely forgotten Narcissia was to be in there. When she walked in she sat down and grabbed a piece of toast and ate quietly.

"Well it is a pleasure to see you again," a cold but feminine voice said.

Her shot her head up with shock and saw Narcissia starring at her, she could tell that those words were just laced with sarcasm.

She gave a faux smile to Narcissia as she replied " No, the pleasure is all mine."

Hermione bit into her toast threateningly as she turned away from Narcissia.

"So," Narcissia said obviously wanting to start a conversation "What have you been up to these past years?"

"I've gotten married," Hermione said nonchalantly.

"Oh, really," Draco's mother said, highly amused by this "And how did that happen?"

"We had a ceremony back at Southampton a few years after I returned. Oh course it's not in writing though, considering I still legally married to your prat of a son. Though I must say, this marriage means a lot more to me than the one I share with your son."

Narcissia practically slammed her drink on the table when she heard this. " So how's Xavier?" Narcissia said trying to calm herself down. 'How dare she do something like this to Draco!'

"He's fine," Hermione said "He's very excited about seeing Draco."

"Really," Narcissia said once again happy.

Hermione nodded as an answer but she really didn't want to go any further.

"How so?" Narcissia said.

"Well, to my distaste Xavier is very fond of his father." Hermione said as almost it was too horrible to say.

"Oh." Narcissia said "Well that's just wonderful."

"Oh, Well I would love to stay and chat some more Mrs. Malfoy but I'm positively stuffed."

"Yes, yes," Narcissia said extremely mused by this.

Hermione headed toward the door. She was no way stuffed, but she did not want to spend anymore time with Narcissia. As she pushed the door open Narcissia suddenly stopped her.

"Oh, Hermione, I didn't have the chance to tell you," Narcissia started.

"Yes," Hermione replied.

"We've found Xavier a lovely girl."

"A girl?' Hermione asked stupidly "What would he need a girl for?"

"For marriage of course, and unlike you. I doubt he'll leave her. She's very lovely. I think you know her mother, Pansy Parkinson. "

"Marriage?...Umm... Excuse me, but isn't it a little soon to be speaking of marriage?"

"Oh course not! Oh, but don't worry they won't get married until they come of age."

"Well isn't that just great, " Hermione mumbled. 'They've practically mapped out his life already!'

Hermione left the dining hall with an even bigger headache than before. She bumped into someone as she left and fell flat on her bottom. She looked up to see a tall, black male which she knew as Blaise Zambini.

"Whoa,Whoa,Whoa," he said as he helped her up "Watch where you're going, Mrs. Malfoy."

"Zambini," Hermione said as she moved her hair out of her face "I really don't need your crap."

"What's wrong? Narcissia put you in a bad mood?" He smirked widely as she grimaced at her name.

"To say the least."

" Please, Blaise let me go talk to my son."

"I would but Draco would probably kill me, besides you'll see him at dinner tonight."

Hermione heard footsteps and looked behind Blaise and saw one of her old child friends walking down the stairs.

"Mandy?" Hermione asked "Mandy Broklehurst?"

"Zambini," Blaise said.

"What?" Hermione asked confused.

"Oh, he means I'm a Zambini now. " Mandy cut in.

"Oh," Hermione said as the whole hall went quite. Hermione suddenly went pink though realizing that practically everyone in the whole house/castle was dressed except for her.

" Well, Mandy, I would love to talk to you later today. Right now though, I need to go get dressed." Hermione said as she excused herself from the couple and walked upstairs.

So how was it? Please Review! I'm sorry it's so short and took my so long. You're probably thinking 'It took over a week for something this short!'
