Hermione ran deep into Hogsmeade Village. How could Ron do this? He was the one who dumped her. Tears ran down her face and clouded her vision. She finally stopped running when she got to the field by the Shrieking Shack.
The field seemed to grab hold of Hermione and pull her onto her knees as she buried her face in her hands. It wasn't long before she heard the heavy breathing of Draco Malfoy, gasping to catch his breath behind her. Hermione pulled her face up from her hands and faced the blond wizard
"Why'd you follow me?" She said sniffling
"I think that's pretty obvious" Draco tried to force a smile through his gasps
He sat down beside her and pulled her body into his, her legs draped across his lap and she pressed her head into his shoulder.
"What are we going to do?" Hermione said, her words muffled by Draco's robes.
"Well we can't go back to Hogwarts, that's for damn sure" Draco scoffed
Hermione shot him a quizative look "Why... not?"
Draco hung his head a little bit "I umm.... May have yelled "I quit" to Ron Weasley's face..."
Neither one of them quite expected Hermione's reaction to this. Including Hermione herself. She laughed. And not ironic giggles either. But real, hard-to-catch-your-breath-laughter. Draco couldn't help but let a smile spread across his face hearing Hermione's laughing.
"You know this means I don't have a job... Or a place to live right?" Draco said
"That's the funny part! You just straight up told Dumbledore and his little band of followers to stick it. And you told him through Ron." Hermione said trying to straighten up "I have wanted to say something like that to Dumbledore for years. Only you can't quite quit school. Hmm. Why don't you come live with me?"
Their eyes met and a shiver ran down Draco's spine. "In that dreadful one room disaster"
Hermione gave a lopsided grin back as a response "Well it was a room made by magic. So we can make it bigger. And don't you want to be away from the wizarding world when the Daily Prophet decides to drag both our names through the mud?"
"Yeah, I guess so.. "
"Then come on!"
Hermione grasped Draco's hand and she apparated them to behind the Coffee shop. She opened the door and did her spell so that the brick wall between them and the shop itself moved revealing Hermione's one room disaster.
Draco coughed. "I think it got worse"
Hermione laughed "Well come on. Why don't we make it bigger"
They were interrupted by the painting on Hermione's wall
"Don't forget to take us down first!" The mother in the painting insisted "It will stretch out my fabric if you don't take me down before stretching that wall"
Hermione removed the painting from the wall and they got started.

They stopped after stretching room to twice it's size and putting in a window so the light could shine on them to wake them up. Draco did a doubling spell on Hermione's bed so it could fit both of them, and Hermione taught Draco how to dust a wall Muggle Style. But even with all that the room still looked unbelievably uncomfortable and drab.
"Well it's an improvment" Draco said crossing his arms
"I agree with you there. Would you like to get some furniture?"
Draco looked at her briefly "I don't think Muggle shops will take too kindly to our currency. And since we can't really go back to the wizarding world... Atleast for now, lets just work with what we have"
Hermione sighed "Well then. Let me show you how to make coffee"
"You're going to what?"
"You're going to have to pull your weight around here, and since you're no longer Professor Malfoy, you will be Barista Malfoy"
"Hermione what does that rubbish even mean?"
"It means you'll be giving Muggles the same coffee high you experienced on our second date"
"So we're dating now"
Hermione smirked up at him "If you'd like". She tossed her hair back at him playfully.
"Hmm" he thought "Dating a mudblood. Well it can't be any worse than working along side Weasle-bee" He smirked to himself "Besides, her ass really is something else".

"Now this is how you brew the coffee" Hermione said pointing to her coffee machine. "You press the big red button and the coffee will brew then come out"
Draco had no idea what she was talking about but tried to appear as if he were listening intently. "Want to try?" Hermione said challenging his attentiveness
"Well with such a good teacher, I would hardly call it a try" Draco winked down at Hermione who rolled her eyes. Then he faced the coffee machine. Man he really hadn't listened to a single word the girl had said. He was too busy watching her hips as they swayed back and forth. He bit his lip and chose a button to press.
Thankfully it was the right button.
"Good job" Hermione said sarcastically "Now wait for the coffee to come out.."
She left out the part about putting a cup under the coffee machine, as she thought it was pretty obvious that that's what you're supposed to do.
Apparently it wasn't as obvious as she invisioned. When the coffee began to pour out the bottom, Draco went into a panic. "Hermione. Hermione. What's it doing?"
"Draco! Get the coffee before it makes a mess!"
Draco acted on instinct and put his hands directly under where the coffee was coming out of. It didn't even take half a second for him to go flying back as the hot coffee burned his hands then splattered all over the walls.
Hermione tried not to laugh at the scene in front of her, even though Draco had all but killed himself trying to opperate a damned coffee machine.
"Draco. You're supposed to put a cup under the coffee machine"
"Now you tell me"
Hermione shook her head, pinching the bridge of her nose "Draco, what did you expect?"
"I don't know, I have never done this before! It is like performing a Patronus charm or some shit! Hard to do"
"But worth it once you do it!" Hermione reminded him
Draco blushed sheepishly "Actually I wouldn't know"
"Well this is your first time"
"I mean the patronus spell"
Hermione held eye contact with Draco longer than she intended to. "You've really never attempted a patronus spell?"
"Well blimey Hermione, Of course I have attempted one.." Draco lowered his voice almost in shame "I just never got it right".
"Would you like me to teach you?"
Draco nodded his head in agreement. Hermione walked over to him and put some ice in his burnt hands and then placed her hands on his face "You just have to think about a happy memory"
She stroked her chin "The happiest you can remember"
Draco shot her a cold stare "That's the thing Hermione, I don't have any good memories"
"Then I suppose we have to make some, huh?"
"In this Muggle infested play place? I don't think that's very likely"
"Try me" Hermione smiled and bit her lip at him.
He pulled her into his embrace, and kissed her, their lips pressed together, he deepened the kiss. It felt so right kissing Hermione, even though he felt as if he should be repulsed by it. He felt something strange happen in his brain at that moment and he held Hermione even tighter, pushing his tongue all the way in her mouth then he pulled back.
"I want to try the Patronus charm now"
Hermione looked at him confused then nodded "OKay. But if you fail, you're drinking another Frappe"
"Not a chance in hell" Draco smiled then he pointed his wand and chose his memory.
His mind flooded with He and Hermione's first kiss. The passion, the way she tasted, the way she smiled when he slipped his tongue in her mouth. The way she smelled, it overwhelmed him. It was amazing it was like the frappe all over again. Draco felt warmth rise throughout his body then he let the words "Expecto Patronum" Explode from his mouth.
The sight was truly extraordinary. Sparks shot from Draco's wand, and a Salmon emerged from the sparks in the blue light that only a patronus could produce. Hermione stood in shock watching the salmon rush around Draco's head. It then swam around hers as well. She swatted it and giggled "Draco you did it!"
Draco picked Hermione up and threw her in the air "I really did do it!". With the throw Draco accidently pushed Hermione's sleeve up. And when she was put back down he saw the words. "Mudblood" carved into Hermione's arm. His face turned dead serious.
"I want to get rid of that scar" He said his eyes pointed to Hermione's forearm
"Draco..."
