Summary: Hermione Granger finds out that she's adopted and was sent into the muggle world at birth for protection. She gets to live with her real family the summer before her 7th year at Hogwarts, where she meets Blaise Zabini and falls for him.

Chapter 1: Of Meetings and Truces

Hermione snuggled deeper underneath her blankets, attempting to go back to sleep despite the sound of her parents moving around downstairs. Then, as she remembered what was happening today, she leapt out of bed and raced to the shower.

After showering, she spelled her hair dry and put on a light blue skirt, white tank top, and white strappy sandals. She pulled her hair into a ponytail and did her make-up, only applying foundation, blush, mascara, and a small amount of light blue eye shadow.

She gracefully walked downstairs and into the kitchen, where she saw her parents sitting with Narcissa and Draco Malfoy. She smiled politely and sat down. She was about to ask where Dumbledore was when he appeared with a small 'pop' in the kitchen. He smiled at everyone with that darn twinkle in his eyes as he took a seat.

He looked at the clock and counted down from five, then told Hermione to go look in a mirror. When she did, she gasped. Her hair was no longer brown and bushy but white-blonde and straight. Her eyes were a silver-gray and her skin was pale. She was more slender than before and her curves stood out more, making her look like she was actually 17 instead of 12.

She walked into the kitchen and sat gracefully into her chair. She was assuming that the knowledge of how a pureblood should act became available as the glamour faded away because she immediately knew everything she needed to know. She was silent as she poured herself a cup of tea and added one lump of sugar and a teaspoon of milk.

"Mr. and Mrs. Granger, do you understand how the documents work? As soon as we leave your property, you will have no recollection of your daughter or the magical world whatsoever. Everyone that knew of your daughter will forget about her too. This is for your safety as well as ours." When the Grangers nodded, he slid the papers over to them and they signed. Hermione signed next, followed by Narcissa and Dumbledore as the witness.

Hermione went upstairs to make sure that everything that she owned was packed. When she turned towards the door, Draco was standing there. She wasn't sure what she expected but it definitely wasn't the hug that he gave her. "Hermione, I'm sorry for the way that I treated you and your friends. There is no excuse for it except that I was forced to do so. My parents told me to be rude and even downright mean to you and did not explain why. Mother finally explained why at the beginning of this summer."

Hermione hugged him back and told him that she accepted his apology. She levitated her things downstairs and into the living room. After Narcissa banished them to her room at Malfoy Manor, she hugged the Grangers for the last time and thanked them for their help and protection for 17 years. Draco grasped her hand and they apparated to her new home.

A/N: I hope that ya'll like it! We'll meet Blaise in the next chapter. I'm going to attempt to take the relationship between Blaise and Hermione slow, although I tend to kinda force my characters to jump into relationships. I'll try to make this one a little more believable though. Also, I promise that the next chapter will be a bit longer. This one is just the introduction.
