Hey guys, I realized, that I am terribly bored, when I am not writing anything, so I started to write new story :) Hope you like it, sorry for english...

Now, when she was standing there, looking into his eyes and thinking about all the thing that happened, Hermione Granger was perfectly sure about the moment, when her life started to fall down, just like a house of cards…

It was Monday, 12th April and Ginny Weasley and Hermione Granger were sitting in the living room of Burrow, drinking coffee.

"So, what's new, Hermione?" Ginny asked her. Hermione looked up at her, thinking about some news to say.

"New…um…I don't know. Maybe just the fact, that me and Ron will be together for a year tomorrow…" she replied and smiled.

"Oh, really? That's amazing…do you think, that Ron knows it?" Ginny asked.

"He probably forgot. You know him." Hermione replied and both girls chuckled.

"Yeah. Oh, I almost forgot. I wanted to show you something! Have you already read today's Daily Prophet?" Ginny asked.

"Absolutely not, I had no time this morning." Hermione said. Ginny nodded, stood up and she disappeared in the kitchen, When she came back, she held a newspaper in her hand.

"Three guesses who is going to work with you…" she said then. Hermione raised her eyebrows.

"Gin, you are scaring me. I have honestly absolutely no idea. Who?" she asked.

"Mr. Draco Malfoy…" Ginny said.

"WHO?" Hermione shrieked.

"You've heard me right. Just listen: 'News from the Ministry of Magic. Mr. Draco Malfoy, who is known mostly like the son of Lucius Malfoy - previous important worker of Ministry of Magic and also a Death Eater who gave up to the good side after the Dark Lord's death, found a job on the ministry and obviously he has got the same ambitions as his father, he became partner of the most famous (and how some people say the most clever) Ministry worker, Hermione Granger…" Ginny completed the reading. Hermione was staring at her in pure shock.

"Is he fucking kidding me? Is the whole Ministry kidding me? They accepted him without asking me? I will not work with Malfoy! I am going to quit!"

"Aren't you absolutely crazy? You have waited for that work your whole life! You can not throw it all away just because of Malfoy, that would be pretty stupid!" Ginny said quickly.

"I know…but what the hell do you think I am supposed to do?" Hermione asked her.

"Just behave like you usually do. He's Malfoy, maybe he is there just to make you quit, you know him. And you can always ignore him, if necessary…" Ginny said. Hermione was looking at her and she knew, that her friend is right. She won't let him destroy her whole life, just because he is a git.

"You are right…" she said and suddenly the door opened.

"Oh, Harry! Hello, darling…" Ginny said and she went to give him welcoming kiss. Hermione watched them with a smile on her face. They were definitely made for each other. There was nothing that could tear them apart. Just like her and Ron…

"You will not believe me, what happened to me. I was by Ginny and she read me the Daily Prophet's article and it seems, that I am going to work with that fucking cocky…" she started when she came to the living room. Then she stopped in the middle of the sentence and she froze, "Malfoy? What the fuck are you doing here?" she asked, when she saw the blond idiot sitting on her couch and she gave a killing glare to Ron, who just shrugged with innocent face.

"Oh, hello Granger. I don't think that this was the best way to greet your new working partner…" that git said with a smirk and Hermione felt that her blood is boiling in anger. What the hell does he think about himself.

"Get out of here, Malfoy…" she hissed. He raised his eyebrows and his face seemed to be pretty ironic.

"When you're saying so, Granger…" he said and he stood up. "It was nice to see you, Weasley…" he nodded at Ron. "And…we'll see us in work…" he said to her, when he was walking past her. Her mouth was still opened, when he got out of their flat.

"Ron, can you just explain me, what the hell was this supposed to mean?" she barked.

"He…he just told me, that he will now work with you and that he would like to talk with you about the work, so I offered him to wait here for you and he agreed. And we were just…talking…" he said. Hermione stared at him in disbelief.

"You were just talking? Ron, are kidding me?" she asked.

"No…he was alright. We were talking about what's new, he found it really interesting, that we are together…he said, that he always expected you to end up with Harry, isn't that funny?" Ron said. Hermione rolled up her eyes. This was useless. Ron seemed to be completely brainwashed.

"I am not really sure, what the hell does he want to do, but I will find out and I will get him, whatever it takes!" she muttered to herself and she went to the kitchen to make some food.

"But…what if you are looking at it from the bad side. What if he has really changed?" Ginny asked her. Her only luck was, that Hermione was just calling with her, other way, she would probably kill her.

"You talked with him, didn't you?" she asked them.

"No…not so much…we just met in the city yesterday…" Ginny said in absolutely matter-of-fact tone of voice. Hermione was amazed. How the hell did he do it?

"Oh, really? And you did talk like the best friends, didn't you?" she asked.

"He was quite nice. I think you are just overacting…" Ginny said.

"What? I am overacting? What the hell happened to you all?" Hermione yelled and she hung up the phone. This was so absurd. He got all her close people just because he was behaving quite nice…damn that Malfoy! He was worse, than she could ever imagine. But she will find out, what's his plan…and he will never win over her.

Suddenly her phone started to ring. She picked it up.

"Yes?" she said.

"Hey, Hermione. Everything is alright? I heard, that you were arguing with Ginny…what happened?" it was Harry. Hermione sighed.

"It seems, that Draco Malfoy decided to destroy my life…and everybody thinks, that it's completely alright, after all, he's quite nice…" she said with really ironic voice.

"Quite nice? Malfoy? Rubbish…" he said.

"Thank you, I am glad, that at least someone agrees with you. He became my partner in the work and yesterday he came to our flat when I wasn't at home and he talked with Ron just like huge friend… and Ron think, that it's amazing. I wanted to tell it to Ginny, but she met him in the city and she thinks, that he has changed, because ha was quite nice…" Hermione said.

"That's really weird. That's not typical I'm-Malfoy-the-king-of-the-world behaviour." Harry said.

"I know…and that's exactly what I'm talking about. People aren't changing so much…especially not, when it's Malfoy. What do you think I should do, Harry?" she asked.

"Just let it go and you will see, what happens. Maybe he just wants to make you get crazy…try to ignore him…" Harry said.

"That will be quite hard… but I will try. Anyways, thank you, Harry…" she said.

"That's alright, 'Mione… call whenever you'll need to talk, OK?" Harry said. She nodded, but she realized, that he couldn't see that.

"Ok…goodbye, Harry…" she said.

"Goodbye…" he said and then she hung up the phone. She sighed. All right, now to the work…she already knew, that it will be pretty hard to behave, like Malfoy does not exist…
