Rebus ~ A collection of short drabbles featuring Draco and Hermione.
Chapter 12: Co-Workers
Inspired by THIS POSTÂ by @incorrectdramionequotes which is originally based on a quote from the show, Eureka.
Hermione has always had a practical mind. So when she realises she has an attraction to her MLE partner, Draco Malfoy, she resolves that the only way to concentrate again is to do something about the attraction she feels.
"We should just have sex. Our budding urges are interfering with our professional ambitions," Hermione suggested, taking the quill from her bun and shaking out her mass of curls in what she hoped was a display of sensuality. She dropped the quill on her desk as she approached the pinboard where her partner in the MLE, Draco Malfoy, stood talking through the case they had been working on.Draco, stunned by her suggestion, stood with his mouth parted slightly, his hand still clutching the pin inches from where he was about to put in the board. His mind was replaying her words as if checking she had said what he thought she had said."Wait, our urges," he repeated, turning to face her, the shock still evident on his face. "You mean, like, mutual?" he asked, his forehead creasing between his eyebrows, clarifying her statement.
