Hermione checked the time after she apparated to the Great Hall at Hogwarts. 2:58. Perfect, two minutes early. The Great Hall was already filled with wizards and witch for the one-year-anniversary celebration of their victory in the Second Wizarding War. Hermione looked around, hoping to see a familiar face or two.
"Hermione!" a familiar voice called.
"Hey Harry," Hermione greeted him.
Harry looked the same as before, to her at least. He was now working as an Auror, and he was one of the best ones. If the great Harry Potter can't even rescue Ginny, who can?
"Oh look. It's Potter," Draco came up to them, "And Granger."
Draco was now a changed man, he no longer put blood purity as a priority. His parents were also influenced by his opinions, and they were trying to be better people. However, most people were reluctant to believe them. To prove that they had changed for the better, Draco started helping the Aurors to round up the Death Eaters that had escaped.
"Why are you here, Malfoy?" Ron asked as he approached them.
Hermione tensed up as Ron stood near her. Subconsciously, she moved away from him a little. Things had been awkward between them after they had broken up, deciding that it was for the better.
"My mother saved your precious friend's life. Why shouldn't I be here, Weasel?" Draco sneered.
"Just because you're an Auror doesn't erase your history, Ferret," Ron said.
"Enough," Hermione said. So immature.
"Wizards and witches, take a seat and the celebration will begin in a moment," Professor McGonagall said, loud enough for everyone to hear.
The speeches alone lasted late until the night, so Hermione decided to skip the party and to just go home since she had work the next morning.
