Thanks for reading and reviewing!
Saturday Afternoon
Hot. It was so hot. Hermione struggled against the pull of more sleep to open her eyes. She was in the arms of her wizard, her face pressed to his chest, her legs intertwined with his. She felt the heat of the sun on her back. Her bedroom window faced west and the afternoon sun could be brutal, as it filtered though her window. She slowly pushed away and rolled onto her back. She felt movement beside her as Theo slowly came to consciousness.
She turned to look at him and gave him a soft smile as she caught his sleepy eyes scanning up and down her naked form.
He smiled lazily and said softly, "what are you doing all the way over there?"
"I'm hoooot'" she dragged out the word hot as she stretched.
He grinned, "yes, you are." He reached over and wrapped his arm around her to slide her back toward him. She giggled as she pushed away. "No, I'm like, really hot."
She slid to her side of the bed and stood up as he rolled onto his back and watched her. She walked around the foot of the bed and was about to pass his side to get to the bathroom, when he was out of the bed in an instant. He grabbed hold of her waist and pulled her close for a tender kiss. He grinned, "sorry, my naughty witch. You have to pay the toll."
"I think you mean, pay the troll." She teased and then giggled.
He laughed. "Oh, you are so getting a spanking for that."
Hermione squealed as she quickly ducked and darted toward the bathroom, but she wasn't fast enough as Theo caught her just before she shut the bathroom door. He laughed as he held her tight. He turned on the shower and then tossed her under the cool jets, not waiting for the water to warm up. She shrieked and he laughed. "Clearly, you needed a little cooling off."
30 minutes later they were in the kitchen, Hermione explaining as she buttered the bread for the grilled cheese, "You have to wait for the griddle to get hot before you put the sandwiches on."
Theo was tapping his foot with impatience. "Muggle cooking takes too long."
The sound of the floo got both their attention as Ginny came bounding into the kitchen. "Hermione! Do you.." She froze mid sentence and turned pink at the sight of a shirtless Theo standing next to Hermione.
"Hi Gin! You remember Theo Nott?" Theo and Ginny smiled shyly at each other and half waved hello.
There was an awkward silence. Hermione smiled at Ginny, "So what's up Ginny?"
Ginny was staring at Theo and snapped out of it. "Oh, oh yeah. The reason I floo'd is to see if I could borrow your little black dress?" She sighed. "Harry's taking me out tonight and Merlin knows when I'll be able to wear something that cute and sexy again."
Hermione looked from Theo to Ginny and smiled. "Sure..actually, Gin, there's something I need to talk to you and Harry about, but I need to do something first." She looked back at Theo and then continued. "How about you and Harry come over tomorrow for lunch?"
"Sure, Mione. We'll be here...everything ok?"
"Oh yeah, everything's fine." Hermione smiled at her friend while internally her mind was spinning with worry. "I'll go grab the dress." Hermione started to walk towards her bedroom.
Ginny smiled at Theo and said, "I'll come with you." Ginny followed Hermione and as soon as they were in the bedroom and out of earshot, Ginny started on Hermione, "Why didn't you tell me how hot he is!" Ginny pretended to swoon and collapsed on the bed. "Oh Merlin! I think my panties are wet."
"Ginny!" Hermione exclaimed, before collapsing on the bed in a fit of giggles with her best girlfriend.
Five minutes later, Ginny was gone. Hermione was frying up the grilled cheese sandwiches on the griddle as Theo watched. "So, I take it you're going to accept Draco's offer? Is that what you want to talk to Harry and Ginny about?"
Hermione flipped the sandwiches."Yeah, but I want to talk to Draco first. Need to lay some ground rules."
Theo smirked and thought to himself...oh boy!
After lunch Hermione dashed to the corner owlery to send a note to Draco, while Theo headed to his apartment to unpack and relax for a couple hours before heading back to Hermione's.
After hitting the market for groceries and a few bottles of wine, she apparated home and started to prepare. The response owl came quickly and she was pleased that not only had Draco accepted, but Professor Snape had accepted the invite which she had extended to him as well. So it would be a total of 4. Hermione felt a flush as she realized the three men she had dreamt about would all be at her table for dinner.
She had a break where nothing needed attending, so she filled out the floo network paperwork at her desk, granting full access to Theo and limited access to Draco. Draco would only be allowed to floo to her apartment between 9am and 8pm, and only if she were home. She added the Manor as well as his apartment, for good measure. She put a stasis charm on everything in the kitchen and quickly floo'd to the Ministry and dropped off the paperwork at the Floo Regulatory office, which thankfully was open until 4 on Saturdays.
When she got back to her apartment, she finished all the chopping and prep she needed. Tonight's meal was going to be chicken and beef stir fry over white rice. She had her parents wok which had been a staple in the kitchen when she was growing up. It was her favorite kitchen tool and she used it frequently. She looked at her watch. It was 4:30 and her guests would be there at 7. The table was set, the apartment was clean and straight and all the prep was done. She was pleased to find she had plenty time for a long soak in the tub and would not need to rush.
After her bath, she put her hair up in a loose bun and opted to wear grey linen slacks and a sleeveless black linen top that was v neck in the front and backless. It was a sexy top and she debated not wearing it, but tonight she wanted to be holding the cards. This top made her feel sexy and empowered. She wore black 2 1/2 inch heels to complete the outfit.
She was finishing up her makeup when she heard Theo come in the front door, which she had just unlocked for him when she finished her bath. He walked in her bedroom and let out a low, slow whistle as she was putting on a touch of lipstick. "I don't know if I want another wizard seeing you looking so sexy tonight."
She turned to him and said, "2 wizards actually, Professor Snape accepted."
He walked up behind her and she looked up at his reflection in the mirror. She gave him a genuine smile. "You look very handsome, Mr. Nott." She turned around and looked him up and down and then grinned, "I don't know if I want any wizards seeing you looking so sexy tonight, either."
He laughed and kissed her. He turned to walk back towards the living room. She watched him walk, enjoying the view. He really was a sexy specimen and she felt the need to pinch herself that this was real. Two weeks earlier she was lonely and without a future. Now she was dating the wizard of her dreams and was on the cusp of a very exciting job.
7 pm arrived and there was a knock at the door. Hermione opened it and welcomed the striking wizards into her apartment.
"Damn, Granger. You clean up nice." Malfoy was making a show of checking her out. Snape rolled his eye's at Draco' behavior and then gave Hermione a small bow as he handed her a bouquet of wild flowers. "Thank you for inviting me to your lovely home, Miss Granger."
"Oh, these are beautiful! Thank you!" She gestured towards the room for all to sit. Snape took the recliner, while Draco sat on the sofa.
She put the flowers in water and on the set table while Theo handed out the glasses of wine she had already poured.
"So Granger, spill. You taking the job or not?"
Snape looked at Draco and in his signature drawl said, "Draco you have all the chivalry and etiquette of a mandrake."
Draco rolled his eyes and looked at Hermione. "Well?"
Hermione huffed and sat at the other end of the sofa. "Well, I had hoped to put off the brass tacs discussion until we were at least through the first round of drinks."
She took a cleansing breath and turned to him. "Draco, these are my conditions. One, you will respect my privacy" She gave him a hard stare. "Just because I work for you will not give you automatic access to my person or my dwelling at any time you desire. I will be available during my agreed upon work hours, during workdays, during the week. You will not have the right to pop in and monopolize my time during the evening or on the weekends." She took a sip of her wine. Draco was studying her as if in deep thought. Theo was quite amused and Professor Snape looked utterly bored. "Second, Malfoy Enterprises will not be allowed to disclose or publish my findings until the research is complete." Draco started to interrupt, but she was fast. "Third, Malfoy Enterprises will hire its own private investigator to assist with the search for my parents. The search will remain ongoing until they are either discovered or until comes a time when I decide the search is futile. Not you, not your mother or any other being will make that determination except for myself." She sipped her wine and then in a softer tone said, "if you can agree to those terms and the compensation package is agreeable, I will accept your most kind offer. I would also like to say that I am thankful to you for this opportunity."
Draco smiled at her, "Done."
Theo then jumped into the conversation, "Well, in that case, lets toast to new jobs, new relationships and new beginnings." All four lifted their glasses to each other and sipped.
"Well, now that that's done, I have something for you." Draco stood, walked towards her front door, opened it and reached down to the left of the door. He picked up and carried in a cage with a coal black owl. It was beautiful and his feathers almost had a deep purple hint of color. "You need your own owl, Granger. Those scrawny public owlery owls are a disgrace to the owl post system."
Hermione found herself speechless as Draco placed the cage on the coffee table in front of her. "Oh Draco! I don't know what to say! Thank you!" She picked up the cage and brought the owl up to her eye level. He gave a soft hoot. "Does he have a name?"
Draco shrugged. "The card on the cage said, 'LeRoy'. The shop owner said his owner was an elderly witch who passed away last month." The owl let out another soft hoot.
She smiled. "LeRoy." She gave a small chuckle. "That's very fitting for you. LeRoy, as in 'The King." She stood and took the cage with her into the kitchen. Theo followed and watched as she opened the cage door. "Well, LeRoy, are you hungry?' The owl slowly came out of its cage and rubbed its beak against her hand. Hermione opened the refrigerator and pulled out some of the chopped veggies and a piece of turkey she had wrapped up in foil. She put the morsels of food in a dish and placed the dish in front of the owl, who dug in greedily. She placed a small bowl of water next to the cage as well. She smiled at Theo and took his hand as she walked back into the living room.
When she walked past the window, Crookshanks was sitting up on the window sill between his two favorite plants, giving Hermione a less than pleased glare. "Oh Crooks, there's no need to be jealous."
She sat back on the sofa and gave Draco a heartfelt smile and thanked him again. Draco was looking quite pleased with himself.
The conversation was light and jovial. Theo discussed his visit to his Uncle in Berlin and Snape talked about the beauty and culture of Mexico.
When it was closer to 7:45, Hermione headed into the kitchen to start the wok. Dinner was ready and on the table in 20 minutes. She walked into the living room. "Gentlemen, dinner is served."
