"So what's up for tonight?" Lauren and Hermione sat on the steps out side the bar, drinking a couple of beers, on their break.

"Well… I was thinking we could jump in Draco's private plane and jet off to New York. Maybe a hit a few clubs down there."

Lauren stared at Hermione in disbelief, "Girl you hit the big times, your telling me boy toy over there has a private plane?"

Hermione shook her head, "Nope, I was joking around. I just figured we'd hit a few clubs around here."

Lauren laughed. "Alrighty… but the private plane sounded like fun." Hermione rolled her eyes. Slowly the girls finished their beers and continued with small chatter.

"Shy?" Lauren asked.

"Hmmm?" Hermione's head was resting against the wall and her eyes were closed and she didn't bother to open them when she heard her name.

"You know that guy… you know the drummer in Draco's band…?"

"Sean." Hermione supplied.

"Yea… is he single?"

Hermione's eyes opened and she stared at her friend in scepticism. "I believe so… yea. Why?"

"Just wondering."

"But Lauren, what about Andrew?" Hermione saw Lauren's face fall and she didn't need and explanation. "Oh my god. When did this happen?"

"About a month ago." Lauren answered.

"And why in god's name are you just telling me now?"

Lauren shrugged, "I don't know, you've had better things to worry about. You were in the hospital for Christ sake."

Hermione shook her head, "But this means you didn't even get a proper wallowing time with your best friends."

Lauren shook her head, "that's the thing Hermione, I didn't want wallowing time. In should have realized sooner that Andrew and I could never last. He's more like… a big brother."

"Does Char know?"

Lauren nodded her head. "Yea."

Hermione glanced around, "Speaking of Char, I didn't notice just how quite it was. Where's she at?"

Lauren grinned, "Ron showed up, they took off for her break. I bet they don't come back."

Hermione shook her head, then stuck her finger in her ear and shook it up and down. "Ron… as in Ronald Weasley, as in red headed Ron, as in my best friend?"

"Yea… what's the big deal?"

"Nothing… just never thought I'd see the day."

The music was loud and pounding as the party of 6 entered the club. They took a seat at the bar and ordered a couple of drinks.

Lauren and Hermione shared a knowing smirk as Charity and a Ron disappeared into the crowd on the dance floor, soon followed by Harry and Ginny.´

"Come on." Hermione screamed over the music, and grabbed Laurens hand. Instead of going to the dance floor as Lauren had expected, they slipped around to a back door and entered a quite hallway.

"Where we going Shy?" Lauren asked.

Hermione grinned mischievously at her. "You'll see."

They continued to walk down the seemingly dull hall way. The walls were an ashen yellow, and often between doors were tasteless paintings. Lauren allowed herself to be pulled down the hall.

Finally they reached the very end where two large mahogany doors stood, along side them stood two equally large men.

"Hey guys." Hermione nodded and slipped past them and between the doors.

Around the corner and threw another pair of doors, was their destination. Hermione pulled Lauren through a door and into a room where 2 young men sat.

"Hey beautiful." Draco stood up and grabbed Hermione's hand, raising it to his mouth for a kiss. She grinned and pulled it away, swatting at him playfully

"Stop that." she commanded. She took a seat next to Draco on the couch and gestured for Lauren to take a seat in the chair next to Sean. She blushed and sat down.

Hermione leaned forward and whispered secretively into Draco's ear. He in return smirked, nodded, then captured her lips for a quick kiss.

"Hermione." Sean voice interrupted hers and Draco's actions. "How are you feeling after the sentencing and all? I mean… I know it's been a while, but how are you handling it."

"You mean to say, do I still take panicked glances behind me as me and the girls are walking home. Or do I now carry pepper spray right?"

Sean smiled. "Well they answer is yes. It still freaks me out, but no I don't carry pepper spray, I prefer and metal stick. Hurts more."

Sean shook his head, realizing that, although Hermione was making a joke of it, what she said was in fact true.

"Well lady… gentleman…" Draco said standing up, "Excuse me, but I'd like to steal this beautiful lady away from you for a while, for a dance."

Hermione cleared her throat, "That would be lovely Draco." She allowed herself to be pulled to her feet. "You two really don't need to worry about coming, I'm sure you'll be more happy… here… talking… alone."

Hermione smirked and she and Draco disappeared out the door.

"I do believe we've been set up." Sean comment to Lauren who was blushing fiercely.

She nodded her head in response, "I do believe we have."

He smiled a genuine smile at her. "You wanna go dance?"

"I'd love too." She accepted his extended and he pulled her to her feet.

Hermione wrapped her arms around Draco's neck, and his hands rested on the small of her back, holding her right against him. They were swaying to the beat of the slow music.

"Hermione." He whispered in her ear. "She didn't answer him, but he knew she was listening. "Look.", she looked over his shoulder and saw Lauren and Sean dancing in a corner, talking to each other as they did so.

"Looks like a job well done." She commented.

"I agree." He whispered in her ear. She rested her head on his shoulder and let her eyes drift closed.

"Want to go to the back?" he whispered in her ear. She nodded her head and let him lead her away.

They were quietly snuggled up on a couch, Hermione eyes were closed and Draco's hand was slowly stroking Hermione hair.

"Love?" Draco whispered softly. Hermione's eyes fluttered open and she smiled when s he looked up and saw him. "I've got something to tell you. Do you remember when you told me you didn't care who your father was. An that the whole thing about the adoption upset you cause you loved your mother so much?"

Hermione nodded her head, buts she didn't say anything.

"Well… I took a little trip to London and paid a visit to you father…"

"Draco! How in god's name did you do that? and why?" Her eyes grew wide and she sat up, out of Draco's grip.

"Just let me finish." He told her, "After a man to man talk with him, I was able to figure out who your biological mother is, though I couldn't find the name of you father. " He paused and she looked at him expectantly, "Her name was Analise Hadley Taylor."

"But Draco… that's my adoptive mother's name."

He nodded his head, "I know that."

"But then that means I wasn't adopted."

"Oh but you were." He told you.

"You father, Bruce Adam Granger. Is not your biological father. Your biological father died before you were born, and he and you mother eye married soon after."

Hermione stared at Draco, and he saw her eyes well up in tears. "No, no, no," he whispered softly, wiping the tears from her eyes, "This is good news, your supposed to be happy."

She didn't say anything, bit continued to sob. He wrapped his arms around her and whispered to her, "Lets take you home."

He tightened his grip on her and with a pop they were in her apartment. They were greeted by a mass for golden fur, and Hermione wrapped her arms around the little guy and cried into his neck.

When she finally got herself under control, she looked up at Draco, "What were the tears about?" He asked her.

"It's just memories and such. But thank you, no one has ever done anything so… amazing for me." She kissed him on the lips fully, then pulled away and smiled against his cheek.

Placing her hand over her mouth she hid a yawn. "I think I should go and let you get some sleep." Draco said, leaning forward he kissed the top of her head.

"Wait" she said as he turned away. "Wanna stay and watch a movie?"

She grinned as Indy dropped the cassette at his feet. He shrugged, "I guess I could stay." He lunged forward and scooped her up in his arms. She screamed out.

"Put me down!!" Draco smirked at her and dropped her on the couch. "Indy bring the movie." She called over the shoulder, but Dog was way ahead of her, he had dropped the movie in front of Draco who was now putting in the VCR.

"Wanna hear something funny?" Hermione asked Draco as they lay in the dark, the movie over more than a while ago.

"Hmm?" Draco responded.

"When I moved here, I was hoping to get away from everything about London, my father, Hogwarts, everything. Never in a thousand years did I think that I'd spend the last six month with my enemy, falling in love."

"Do you regret it?"

She shook her head, "I regret not finding out what a good kisser you were ages a go." His laugher came from deep in his chest, and she could feel it as her head rested under his chin, and her hand was on his stomach.

"I'm serious." He prodded. She smiled up at him.

"I wouldn't trade in a single moment of it." He kissed her then, hard and long. His hands moved from behind his head to cup her cheeks.

"Good." He whispered, resting his forehead on hers. "cause neither would I."
