Draco apparated into the backyard of the Doctors Granger's suburban home. He knocked, and when he received no reply, he checked his watch to make sure he had come at the appointed time. Unsure of what to do next, he debated returning home and trying to floo or owl Hermione instead, when he heard a loud bout of feminine laughter coming from near the front of the house. Deciding that, they just must not of heard him, he decided to enter the house and announce his presence again as he approached the room the noises were coming from.
As he came closer to the front room, more sounds came to him, along with the voices of Hermione and her mother. One comment made him stop dead in his tracks.
“I don't know why, but he looks so much better dirty...”
There was an embarrassed laugh followed by an equally embarrassed sounding “Mum!”
“I know, I know, you prefer the elf,” Mrs. Granger said laughingly, “but I have to say, this was not a bad investment for more than six hours of getting to see our men running around and playing with swords!”
“Alright! Alright, you get Strider, as long as Legolas is all mine.”
“You always did have a thing for pale men with long blond hair, didn't you my dear?”
“Well, after meeting Draco, there wasn't any going back for me, even if he was a bit of a prat in the... Oh Merlin, Draco! What time is it? I was supposed to have started getting ready for dinner nearly an hour ago!”
Draco quietly backed out of the house, and then knocked again more loudly. He'd let Hermione get ready without knowing he had walked in on her and her mother watching the telly, but he had every intention of finding out at some point later on who exactly this Legolas person was.
