Deciding that sitting around all day for him would drive her completely round the bend, Hermione attempted to make the day as normal as possible. Arriving only a short time later than she usually did to the office, she was surprised to find no one in her department yet. Rabastan kept whatever hours pleased him. Since beginning her rather flagrant affair with the Co-Head of the Intelligence Division, her incompetent assistant rolled into the office whenever it suited her. Not that Hermione cared that much. If she could go the rest of her life without seeing either one of their faces, she would be pleased.
