The next morning came a little too early for Hermione. But she was happy to find that she was still in her room in her flat when she woke up the next morning. She had quickly gotten ready, wearing dark colored jeans and a gray colored button up shirt. She pulled her hair into a ponytail and put her wand in her pocket. She figured that since they wouldn't be meeting up until noon she could just spend a little bit of time to collect her thoughts. She was going to ask Theodor for his help but the way to ask and tell him what was going on was going to be hard. Seeing as only Draco and Blaise knew. Well Blaise found out through Draco but that was beside the point.

Hermione signed but appeared to Diegan Alley seeing as it was getting close to the time that they will be meeting. She walked into the little café that she had picked and got a table for two. While she waited she ordered a coffee.

As the minutes went by she got more and more on edge. For all she knew he might not even show up.

''Hermione Granger?'' She jumped to her feet. In front of her stood a man with dark brown hair, and brown eyes, he was dressed in nice robes.

''Hello, Theodor.'' She said a little uneasy. ''But I'm not using Granger anymore, I have no last name.'' She said. He gave her a confused look but nodded anyway. He took a seat across from her and ordered his own drink.

''So Hermione, what is it that you needed help with? What were you talking about in your letter?'' He asked her. Hermione looked down into her coffee for a moment before specking.

''Oh were to start…'' Hermione began to think for a moment. ''I recently found out I was adopted by the Grangers.'' She said and looked up at him.

''And that's a problem why?'' He asked back, his confusion evident on his face, much more clearly now. Funny since when they were in school Hermione had always thought of him as one to not some emotions.

Hermione thought for a moment. ''I guess I should start from the beginning.'' She looked him in the eyes. ''I know this is going to be strange but, lately I have been having episodes were I will have strange dreams and will wake up in random people's houses.'' He raised an eyebrow, giving her a strange look. ''I would go to sleep in my room but wake up somewhere completely different.'' She clarified.

''What does this have to do with you being adopted?'' He asked her.

''I'm getting to that. Well about a week or so ago I woke up at Malfoy manner-'' He had just taken a sip of his own coffee and spit it out all over. He looked at her with wide eyes.

''What were you doing there?!'' He asked in total shock. Hermione signed.

''Apparently I was sleep walking and ended in his house. I still have no clue how I got there, or for what reason I would go there.'' Maybe it wasn't the best idea to contact him.

He cleared his throat. ''I'm sorry I was just…shocked. Please continue.''

''The next morning, after Draco managed to calm me down enough to explain myself, he suggested that we she go to the library and see what we could find.'' She took another sip of her coffee. ''Not only did I come across a most unusual painting, but he helped me find a book that apparently has every family!'' She said bitterly.

''I know what you're talking about, my family has some of those as well.'' He said.

''that's how I found out I'm adopted, I confronted the grangers and it turned out they don't want anything to do with magic. They weren't even going to tell me.'' She said sadly.

Theodor looked at her as she looked into her coffee. ''And where do I come into this?'' He asked her.

She looked up. ''I wanted to know if you would be willing to help me in my search for my birth parents.'' He didn't respond for a moment. ''I understand if you don't want to help, it was just a request you can turn it down.'' She added quickly.

He shook his head. ''No, I will help. Seeing as you are refusing to use your adoptive parents last name, and no one should go around without one.'' Now it was her turn to be shocked. She wasn't expecting him to what to help. It seemed like everyone has changed since Hogwarts. Weather for better or worse she has yet to decide.

''Thank you, so much. We can start tomorrow. Draco will be helping me cross some names off the list tonight so it will be fewer names.'' He nodded.

''I can't believe he's helping you.'' He said suddenly.

''I know what you mean, I was shocked too but he seemed like he really wants to help.'' She explained.

The rest went like that. They chatted for another hour or so before Theodore said he needed to return to work. Hermione finished her coffee and headed back to her flat. Draco would be over in half an hour to start on that list. She was actually excited to see him again. To think she was getting along nicely with the former Slytherins.

This chapter is painfully short and I'm sorry about that. Leave a review I would lke to find out what you think of this.
