I want to start by saying THANK YOU to all my wonderful
reviewers! I appreciate you very much. I’m sorry this took a while to get up.
Life has been busy the past week, but I’m already starting the next chapter so
it shouldn’t take as long to get the next one up. I will be going more into
Hermione’s children later, especially when they come back from their summer
holiday with Ron and the Weasley family. And now..back to Harrods…
Hermione felt completely relaxed. Once her hair had been
finished she had a pedicure and manicure. Now she was just waiting for Lucius
to return.
“Madam Granger, this way if you please.” Spoke Clarice
sweetly.
“But, where is Lucius?”
”He’s off making some purchases. I’m going to take you to get fitted into some
new clothing. Mister Malfoy will be along later.”
“Alright then. Lead the way.”
Lucius Malfoy was busy perusing the jewelry section,
searching for baubles to complement Hermione’s new look.
He had already settled on a platinum right hand ring from
Cartier that had three bands interwoven with sporadic diamonds, Tiffany diamond
stud earrings, and a beautiful Cartier tank watch. He was currently in search
of a necklace to compliment everything.
In the last case, he found it.
It was a Swarovski silver chain with a crystal encrusted
snake pendant.
“Perfect…” he purred as he signaled to one of his personal
shoppers.
Hermione was beginning to feel a bit like Julia Roberts from
Pretty Woman. She felt a bit silly
feeling so giddy, but picking out clothes just was never this fun. And they
never looked this good either.
All the clothes were magically altered to her specifications
and they had dressed her from top to bottom, under and out. She knew there had
to be bags and bags of the clothing she picked. There were undergarments and
stockings, dresses, pants, jeans, blouses, suits, evening gowns, coats, wraps,
gloves, scarves, skirts, shorts, heels, sandals, boots…..it went on and on.
She had been reluctant at first.
“Clarice, I can’t possibly take this much. This is ridiculous!”
she cried, spinning in a circle of clothing.
Clarice only smirked.
“Mister Malfoy gave me strict instructions. You are to have
a full wardrobe for every season and occasion.”
Hermione sighed.
“This is too much. I can’t have him spending this much money
on me..I”
”Madam Granger, let me say this. Be glad he wants to spend his money on you. Do
not tell him I said this, but he has never shopped here with anyone else except
for the late Severus Snape. He usually shops alone for himself and almost never
even for his ex-wife. You must be a great friend for him to bestow these gifts
to you. He has vast amounts of wealth and it does do him good to spend it well,
and, if I may be so bold, he has chosen wisely. You do the clothes justice
Madam.”
Hermione blushed.
“I suppose he will buy them anyway even if I refuse.”
”Most definitely.”
Hermione smiled.
“Well…so what now?”
” Now we pick out an outfit for dinner this evening.”
”Dinner?”
“Ah yes…but that is for Mister Malfoy to tell of.” Clarice
glanced at her watch.
“He should be along shortly. We’ll have to work fast.”
They settled on a cute black dress, and while Clarice packed
her remaining outfits, Hermione dressed into a silk cornflower blue Pierre
Cardin designed Paul & Joe dress. It was V-Neck with an empire waist, balloon
sleeves and button cuffs. It clung in the right places and flowed beautifully.
She wore cream, strappy jimmy choo stilettos to compliment the outfit. She
twirled in the mirror, clutching her new Gucci bag to her side. She checked her
new hair in the mirror and adjusted her turtle colored Chanel sunglasses.
“Madam Granger…are you ready?”
“Hmm..Oh yes Clarice.”
She turned to walk out of the dressing room area but Clarice
stopped her first.
“Before you go out, Mister Malfoy would like you to open
these and put them on.”
Hermione quirked her eyebrow.
“What are they?”
”Accessories no lady could do without. Sit here a moment to open them.” She
motioned for the white plush chair behind her.
Hermione sat and opened each box in turn, more and more
surprised with each one she opened. She was sure Clarice was tired of hearing
her gasps of shock. She chuckled at the necklace.
Slytherins…
All the jewelry was in its place and she felt overwhelmed at
the moment. She pushed away the voice in her head that kept telling her that
she didn’t deserve all of this.
If he didn’t think I
deserved it, he wouldn’t be doing it, so sod off, she told the voice.
“Just perfect Madam Granger. Are you ready to show Mister
Malfoy?”
“As ready as I’ll ever be.”
So, the new Hermione Granger walked from the dressing room
to the sitting area and into Lucius Malfoy’s waiting gaze.
His smile lit up the room as he saw her and she fought a
blush from creeping over her skin.
“Would you like me to twirl?” she spoke lightheartedly.
He made a twirling motion with his right hand.
She complied gratefully.
“So I assume I pass inspection.”
“My dear you are a vision. The male wizarding population
won’t know what hit them.”
”You don’t think the hair is too much of a change do you?”
He drew his gaze back over her now mostly honey blonde
locks, with sparse brown streaks still visible here and there. It was sleek and
volumous, far from the frizzy mass of before. Her bangs were asymmetrical and
parted from the left when looking at her.
She saw his hands visibly twitch and she grinned.
Georgio, her hairstylist, had been correct about Lucius’
affinity for hair.
“It is stunning. It suits you well.”
“Thank you….for everything. I keep feeling like this is all
just too much Lucius. The clothes, the hair, and now the jewelry?”
He waved his hand in a dismissing motion.
“It’s only money Hermione. I have plenty more.”
“I know, I know. So what is this about dinner?”
”I have made plans for us to dine at La Scala. It will be your unveiling so to
speak.”
“Well, I definitely picked a good dress then.”
“Splendid. Now I believe it is time for a late lunch and
then I will drop you at your flat. I will pick you up at seven.”
She looked at her new watch.
“Oh! I can’t believe it’s almost two!! We’ve been here for
hours!”
“Time flies when you’re having fun.” He said with a grin.
“Clarice, thank you for all your help today.”
“Anytime Madam Granger. Mister Malfoy, always a pleasure.”
He nodded and ushered Hermione out to the main entrance
hall.
“Are we apparating again?”
“No. A car is waiting for us outside.”
“I see. No more underground today then.”
“Ah..a lady in those shoes should never ride a tube train.”
He held the door open for her and she walked out to
flashbulbs and shouts.
“Ms. Granger! Are you seeing Lucius Malfoy?”
“Love the new look Ms Granger!
“Hermione! Care to comment on your ex-husbands new lover?”
“Hermione!”
”Over here Miss Granger!”
She stood in shock for a moment before a pressure on her
lower back urged her forward. She looked over to see Lucius looking cool and
composed next to her, smiling brilliantly as he led her to the black Bentley
waiting for them. She lifted her chin,
smiled and waved back at the crowd before ducking into the car.
As the car moved away from the throng of reporters, she
couldn’t stop the silly smile from spreading across her face.
“Was that your doing?”
He gazed out the window a few seconds longer before turning
towards her.
“Perhaps. Does that displease you?”
“It was fan-bloody-tastic.” She replied before breaking out
into laughter.
Lucius followed suit and they laughed all the way to lunch.
