19. The Past
Egads! I'm so sorry I have not updated in awhile.
I hope you all enjoyed my little distraction piece last week, now that it's out of my head I can concentrate on this one again.
I wish I had more to offer, but hey, I'm off work for the next four days so I thought I'd give you gals a break and post before the holiday!
Happy Thankgsgiving to those US readers out there. Don't eat too much.
To everyone else, Friday is early this week (Or, actually, a week and a half late, LOL)
ENJOY!!
CHAPTER 19 11.21.07
“Hermione! Wonderful to see you. I hope you had a nice break. I’d like you to meet your new partner, Doug Shrewer”
Hermione couldn’t believe her eyes. Before her stood a six foot 2 inch platinum blonde haired man that she swore she’d never see again.
“Hello Hermione, so good to meet you” Doug extended his hand to her.
Hermione shakily brought her hand forward to lightly grip his hand before finding her voice.
“Hello. Uh, Mr. Morningside, I would like to speak with you when you have a moment please” Hermione avoided looking into the other man’s eyes as she stepped toward her boss.
“Ah yes, yes just give us a moment as I would like to show Doug here his new office, right next to you in fact.”
Mr. Morningside walked out of the office with Doug following closely, but not before stepping out he looked at Hermione once again catching her eyes he gave her a smoldering look before winking and proceeding out the door.
Hermione collapsed into the chair near the desk and blew out a large breathe, her stomach turning in knots as her brain raced with panic. What in the name of Merlin was ‘he’ doing here? Placing her head in her hands she tried to calm herself.
Breaking her panic filled thoughts Mr. Morningside stepped back into the office closing the door behind him.
“Now, Hermione, what was it you wanted to discuss with me?” He sat in his plush chair behind the cherry wood desk, placing his large hands over his extended belly. A large smile upon his face.
“Well, actually, I wanted to tell you that I am to be married” holding her left hand up for him to see “I would like to talk about taking my leave. I don’t think it will be conducive to working here if I were to live in Spain with my fiance’, Draco Malfoy”
“Well, Congratulations to you. I have to say I’m very sorry to see you leave, you are such a hard worker, wish I had a dozen more of you” with that he stood from his desk, walked to Hermione and shook her hand.
“When do you think you will be leaving? I would very much appreciate it if you could help our new employee get the hang of your job before you go.” He smiled and winked at her before leading her to his door. Opening it for her he placed his hand on her back and gently pushed her into the hallway outside.
“Now, go help Mr. Shrewer get situated won’t you?”
“Of course sir. I’ll stay as long as possible to be sure he knows how to get along. And thank you for understanding sir”
Closing the door behind her she sighed heavily as she walked back towards her office. She opened the door to see Doug sitting happily in her chair with his feet on her desk.
“Ah, Hermione, so good to see you again. It was such a joy to find out we’d be working together, once again.” He winked at her as he stood to embrace her in his arms.
Stepping back quickly she blurted out “I’m getting married”
~*~
Draco had finished his business and was walking the streets of Diagon Alley. He wanted to surprise Hermione tonight, but what could he do. He knew she’d be at her flat after meeting with her boss, she couldn’t stay away from work. Hopefully that would change after they got married. He didn’t want her to leave him every morning for work. He’d wanted to spend all of his days and nights completely wrapped up in her. He had visions of them traipsing around the world at their own leisure, making love in different countries. A smile graced his face as he nearly floated towards the Leaky Cauldron.
Stepping inside he made his way to the bar asking for a drink. His eyes caught sight of a bushy haired girl sitting in a booth, with a man who looked, amazing enough, almost identical to him. His mouth suddenly went dry, his palms finding the moisture as they curled into fists.
Stepping over towards them, he was trying very hard to remain calm but when he saw the man clasp her hand he lost all control.
~*~
“Married you say? Well isn’t that wonderful. Who’s the lucky fella?” he walked up to her frozen form and embraced her in a warm hug, that lasted a bit too long for Hermione’s liking.
Pulling back from his embrace she spoke loud and clear as she made her way behind her desk to separate them.
“Draco Malfoy” she held her chin high in triumph
“Blimey, the fella who left you?” He began walking towards her once more. For every step he took towards her she took two away from him.
Her heart was beating too fast, her palms were sweating profusely, she had to get out of there.
“He didn’t leave me, he just left. Period.” She stated as she inched towards the doorway.
“Hermione, please stop walking away from me, I’m not going to hurt you, you know I never hurt you, unless you asked me to” he grinned devilishly at her shrinking form. Placing his arms on her shoulders as he finally reached her he whispered softly.
“Why don’t we go grab a drink and catch up, shall we?” Sticking his arm out for her she sucked in a deep breath and turned away from him, heading towards the lifts. “Fine, we need to discuss some things anyway,” whispering silently to herself “and I could use a stiff drink right about now”
~*~
They sat in a booth at the Leaky Cauldron after ordering drinks.
“So, why did you leave me?” he asked her, his hands crossed over his chest, his large form leaning back against the booth.
“Can we not do this? It’s been 3 years Doug, I moved on, I’ve found someone who makes me happy” she told him quietly.
“I used to make you happy, Hermione” he leaned across the table, grasping her hand when a shadow fell over the table. Both of them looked up to see a very angry Draco Malfoy standing beside them.
