recap.

Hermoine smiled at her friends, realising that nothing could mess this up for her. Apparently she was wrong.

The few days that she had remaining so that she and Ginny could get themselves prepared went by faster than she could believe it, and now here she stood holding onto Draco's right arm while Ginny held onto his leftt. As soon as they entered the hall in the Malfoy Manor, (which they arrived fashionably late because Draco had to go get them and they weren't half way preapared) all eyes were on them causing Hermoine to feel uncomfortable.

"Draco, they are all staring at us and I feel uncomfortable." She whispered into his ear nervously causing him to chuckle.

"Well my dear, people are supposed to stare when they are in the presence of beauty and if I may say so, you girls look rather gorgeous tonight." The latter, he said so that both girls could hear. And they were indeed dressed in the most beautiful muggle dresses. Hermoine was wearing a starpless baby blue dress that went down all the way to the floor partially covering her matching shoes. The dress hugged her body in just the right places showing off her body (that people believed did not exist), and from waist down was designed with jewels that went all the way around the dress and back. Ginny on the other hand was dressed in a emerald green dress that complimented her hair which she and Hermoine wore in curls that cascaded down their backs. Her dress stopped short above her knees flaunting her long legs.

Hermoine saw Harry and his wife Luna standing with a group of people and she and Ginny made their way over to them with Malfoy in tow.

"Hi Harry, hi Luna." Hermoine said hugging Harry then Luna."You guys look really nice tonight."

"Thanks but you look even lovlier Hermoine." Luna gushed smiling at her friend as Harry nodded his head in approval.

"Now, now Potter you have your wife so please refrain from trying to steal my date." Malfoy said as he greeted the couple.

""who said that I was trying to steal your date when I have my oh so wonderful wife?" Harry replied smiling as he shook Draco's hand.

Hermoine and Ginny went to get drinks while Draco went over to greet a group of people. Hermoine was laughing at a joke that Ginny said when she saw Ginny visibly tense while looking over Hermoine's shoulder. Some part of her told her too look over her shoulder to see what Ginny was so tense about but something told her that itwas best if she just didn't look, but being who she was she had to satisfy her curiosity.

"Ginny what is it?" Hermoine whispered to her friend.

"Bella it'sbeen a while hasn't it? " Came a cool casual voice in Italian that she knew so well, and she felt her heart tighten as the sound of that silky smooth voice. Turning around, she was faced with a pair of blue eyes that she tried to hard to forget about.The memories that were forgotten came flooding back to her as she stood face to face with the man that had broken her heart.

"Zabini"

FLASHBACK

Hermoine made her way towards the library where she was supposed to meet Blaise. Just the thought of being with him made her smile as she practically skipped towards the library doors. Greeting a few people she made her way towards the little corner that they had dubbed their corner but stopped dead in her tracks. Sitting in her normal seat was Blaise and sitting on top of him was Pansy Parkinson having a heated make out session while her under thing was hanging on at the edge of her shoes.She gasped and dropped her books onto the floor causing the two to jump apart, and seeing Hermoine standing there, Pasny smiled and kissed Blaise and strutted past Hermoine with a smirk plastered on her face.

"How c-could you?"Hermoine's voice cracked as she watched him stand up and walked towards her.

"Bella I'm s-sorry it's just that she said that if I didn't sleep with her that she was going to inform my parents of us and I don't want anything to happen to you Bella." He whispered to her. Before Hermoine knew what she was doing, she brought her hand up and slapped him across his cheek.

"It's over, I don't care what she did but atleast you should have told me you bastard, now I hope you die a slow painful death." With that she ran out of the library and into her room in the Heads tower and cried herself to sleep. Drifting of into slee, she could practically hear her heart breaking into pieces.

Hermoine stood her ground and glared up at him. She would be damned if he was going to ruin her night. Turning back around she acted as if she had not seen him and began talking to Ginny that is until she felt a pair of hands turn her around so that she was face to face again with Zabini. Her eyes were no longer warm chocolate pools, but ice cold brown eyes.

"What do you want." She hissed at him, and saw Pansy Parkinson walk up to him and smirked at her looking as slutty as ever in a short black dress.

"Well well well, if it isn't the mudblood herself." Pansy said smirkin at Hermoine.

"Shut it you slutty piece of shit." Turning to Zabini she said. " My guess is that the two of you are still together." He nodded his head once.

"And guess what else mudblood, Blaise my darling proposed to me. Now can you keep a man long enough so he could do that for you?"

"I can do thatt but I don't have to lower myself to your standards to do so.Besides being a slut isn't my kind of thing, but you know that you two are perfect for each other? We have the whore, and the pimp, now if you'll excuse me, I have somebody I have to dance with." Smirking to herself at the shock on Pansy's face as she walked away ignoring the look of hurt on Zabini's face and made her way towards Draco and her close friend Alex who stood a couple of feet behind them watching everything happen.

"Lets dance." Hermoine said taking Alex's hand leading him towards the large group of people who were currently dancing in the middle of the hall, missing the look of jealousy and contempt that was directed to her by two pairs of eyes.

"What was that all about?" Alex asked resting his cheek on the top of Hermoine's head as she rested her head on his chest. She looked up at him and explaine dher history with the couple. She watched as his sea green eyes softened as she told him.

"That bastard even has the nerve of showing up here with her and coming to flaunt their engagement in your face? I'll kill him." Hermoine smiled but refused. She had been friends with Alex since she had finished her training as a healer and he was one of her most trusted friends. Brushing away a strand of dark blond hair from his face, she smiled when she remembered after introducing him to Draco, Draco had said that she had a fetish for blond guys. Truth wasthat she didn't harbour any feelings which were more than platonic for Alex and he had known and had accepted it. While she was dancing with him, she did notsee someone approaching them with jealousy burning in their eyes and with the intent of separating them...
