Emma went throughout the next day slightly mad at her sister. She couldn't understand why Khirsa wasn't wanting to find answers too. Khirsa was so wrapped up in Jacob that she could barely even stand it. They were sickeningly cute, but part of Emma was happy for her sister. She was happy and Emma was happy for her. Emma wasn't sure how they could have clicked so fast though. They had only met two days before and yet they were together more than a newlywed couple. Emma eventually wanted that, but she needed to get to know a guy before she had that kind of connection. Sure she liked James, she thought he was cute and there was something about him that made her want to get to know him, but then there was Blaise who was super good looking and seemed to go out of his way to help her out. She was excited for them to do more research that night.

After dinner Emma left the Great Hall to head to the library and it wasn't long before Blaise fell into step with her. She smiled up at him when she noticed him there. The way he wanted to help her made her happy and it really made her like him more. "You ready to find out about my family?"

"Of course, anything I can do to help you." Blaise smiled at her. Blaise couldn't help, but think she was beautiful every time he saw her. He wish more than anything that things were still done the old way and his father could draw up a betrothal with her father. Unfortunately he would have to court her. He could definitely go the rest of his life with her by his side, but would she choose someone else like that stupid Potter boy? He really was ruining everything.

They sat in the same area in the library as the last time. They seemed to be going nowhere fast, especially because the book they were looking for was only in the old edition in the library. Hogwarts had it, it was just checked out and the librarian wouldn't tell them who had it. Emma was staring at a book totally unrelated to what she was searching for looking through the shelves just to browse when she had a thought. "Hey Blaise is there a book store in Hogsmeade?"

"No I'm sorry. There was one in the forties but it closed down soon after the first war. I can see if maybe Flourish and Blotts does delivery, but you might have to wait for it to come into the library or Christmas break. I can see what I can find out about who checked it out though. Until then I really like spending time with you and we can keep looking, or we can do whatever you want to do. Maybe Saturday?" Blaise knew that he only had one chance at this and he also knew that if he picked one thing then she was into him as much as he was into her and if she picked the other he needed to work harder.

"Research is fine for Saturday. Thank you so much for your help Blaise. I don't know what I would do without a friend like you." Blaise didn't wince but on the inside he was screaming his head off. He had some work to do on the Emma front. This was the precise reason he was befriend her brother. Scorpius was going to come in handy.

"I'll see you Saturday then. Let me walk you to your common room. It's starting to get late." Blaise smiled at her and offered his arm to her. She took it in an attempt not to be rude, but part of her wanted the time to think. She was starting to get confused and she liked time to herself to think. With Blaise always walking her to her common room and Khirsa being in the common room and dorm she just wanted to be alone.

As soon as she got to her common room she went straight to her dorm which Khirsa knew as a bad sign. Khirsa quickly gave Jacob a kiss on the cheek and ran up stairs. No matter what was going on between her and Emma, she was still her sister and she knew her better than anyone. Khirsa found Emma writing a letter at the desk in their room.

"Who you writing to?" She sat down next to her sister and smiled at her.

"Mom, I need a place to be alone and think. I figured she would know Hogwarts better than anyone." Emma answered her without looking up from her letter.

"Do you want to talk about it? I know you well enough to know that when you want to be alone it's because you have something on your mind that you want to mull over in your head."

"I can talk but it's not really going to help."

"Please then talk to me. We haven't talked in like two days." She smiled at her twin sister and took the letter from her. She knew it was done and she gave it to the owl that was there from bringing her a letter from their dad.

"Well I'm just really confused. Blaise is really cute and he's been so helpful with finding out what mom is hiding. He even offered to see of the book I needed could be delivered all the way from Flourish and Blotts, but then there is James. He's cute and there is just something about him that draws me to him. It's not like a sexual attraction thing. It's like a spark thing."

"Yeah that's definitely a be alone type of thing." They both nodded.

"I do want to know what's going on with you and Jacob though."

"Oh my god Em, it's like magic. When he hugs me, I get goose bumps and he's super sweet. Like today he snuck down to the kitchen and we had lunch by the lake. Oh Em there was carnations and Mac and cheese." Khirsa looked starry eyed as she talked about Jacob.

"K that's adorable. He really seems to like you. He sounds like he's head over heels for you and vice versa. K, I want you to be happy. Please don't let my boy problems stop you from being all lovey dovey. You let it stop you with Kevin back in fourth year." Khirsa looked at the floor when she said this. Kevin had broken her heart because she spent too much time trying to help Emma get the attention of a sixth year guy that she liked at the time.

"Kevin and I were never going to work out. You know that and besides Jacob knows what it's like to have a twin, especially a twin that has girl problems." She smiled up at Emma. She took her hands and looked her straight in the eyes. "Look, would I rather have you with James so we can have grossly adorable double dates? Of course, but I want you to be happy and if you're happy with Blaise, I'm ok with that. He is very good looking you know. That toned head boy thing. You know he's quidditch captain too."

"Holy crap K you've been doing your own research haven't you?"

"Just the big difference between you and me. You are more concerned about the past and I'm more concerned with the present. Presently you have boy problems and you're trying to hide behind the past to forget about them."

"Yeah yeah I know, but we've only been here for like two days, I shouldn't have boy problems already. I think either way I'm going to take the slow route. I'm not like you in that way either you know. I like to get to know a guy before I'm making out with him in the common room." Emma smiled at her sister.

"We are not making out. We're just snuggling." Khirsa blushed at her sister. "I think I get it from dad. I just put my whole heart into love because the way I see it love should be spontaneous and I 100% believe in love at first sight." Emma laughed at her sister.

"Of course you do."

Draco Malfoy couldn't believe he was back in England. He had the perfect family in Australia, but when he got a position at the ministry that he couldn't turn down. Now he was in Diagon Alley trying to buy all the copies of Hogwarts: A History. He didn't need his girls finding out that he had fought against their mother. He was a bad guy back then and regretted everything that happened. He wasn't sure what he was going to do with four copies of the book now that he had them, but he figured he could figure it out later. He just wanted to get home before someone other than Blaise saw him.

"Oh my god, Draco Malfoy is that you?" Draco stopped and winced. God he never wanted to hear the voice of Ginny Weasley as long as he lived. He turned around placing the best smiled he could on his face. He had already taken measures to avoiding Harry Potter at work now he was caught in the open by his wife.

"Ginny Potter now right? I haven't seen you since Hogwarts."

"Yeah long time no see. I heard that your kids were enrolled in Hogwarts. What brings you back? Didn't you move to Austria?"

"Australia actually. I work for the ministry now."

"Oh, you know Hermione moved there just after mine and Harry's wedding. You didn't happen to see her over there did you? We kind of lost communication after a couple years."

"Yeah we worked together, but Ginny I really need to get going. My wife is expecting me for dinner. Goodbye now." He hurried away before she could ask him any more questions.

Ok so that was that chapter. I'm not sure how far I'm going to take this one. I have a little bit of writer's block for this story but I'm semi hoping to work through it because I know people love this story. I'm really hoping it will end up ok. There is definitely going to be more adult moments in this fic so that it stays true to the description and really in a Draco/Hermione fic. Please review to tell me what you think. Thank you.
