She looked shocked for a moment, then started laughing as she wrapped her arms around his neck, squeezing for all she was worth. "Oh, my oh my! I never thought we'd see you again! Oh my Merlin! How've you been?" She stood there with one arm wrapped around his neck, after all: he was a long lost friend.
There was no doubt about it. This was, indeed, Draco Malfoy. "Damn you...your smirk should have given it away. Damn, I really don't look at the little things. Well, where are you staying? I'd offer you a place to stay, but I'm having to sneak into my old room as it is."

Draco smirked, and slowly hugged her back. He had never been one to hug, and Li had brought that side of him out, though she had just as easily crushed it in to a billion pieces. Still, Draco couldn't help but hug back, she was his friend, his only true friend at the moment as it seemed.
"I'm still living with my parents."he said, as if it explained it all. That he was still under the Dark Lord's power, that he was still a weakling with no mind of his own, and that he no longer commanded himself. "If you need a place, all you have to do is owl."he told her. "I have the money, or you could stay at the manor."

"Oh, I see..." she said, feeling sorry for him. Her mom didn't try to force her to do anything, never had. She felt like she needed to help him, but she didn't know about that. Should she tell him? Well, he probably knew she was posing as a Death Eater, but what about the Auror? No...that was too big of a risk. Maybe later.
"It's not that I need a place to stay, per see. It's more like my mother thinks I'm dead. I...um...I disappeared after Li Na told me she was pregnant. With Halen's kid. Who, by the way, asked me to wait for him, but said he didn't remember asking me because he was 'drunk'. I mean...if he hadn't planned it, he wouldn't have had the ring. But, whatever." Jade's shoulders rolled in a shrug, arms crossing defensively in front of her. She knew Draco hated Halen with a passion, but that was her reasoning. "Me and Li Na aren't on very good grounds. I haven't talked to her since she told me. But I am keeping in touch with her, appearedly, new best friend, Pam. You remember her, don't you? Yea, she's telling me how Li Na and the baby are."

Draco nodded. "Well, the last time we talked we didn't get off on the right foot."Draco sighed. "I told her who I really was, and that just caused everything to fall to pieces again."he said with a weak smile. "I'm glad she's making friends though, she's going through a rough time too..."he said sadly. Draco was still as in love with Li as he ever was, and it hurt to know that he had to keep his distance from her. "If you married Halen I swear I'd crash your wedding and object."Draco told her seriously. "He's a bastard, believe me, I WORK with him."Draco sighed.

"Hey, I know it hurts, but you've got to move on." She said, laying a hand on his shoulder. "If you ever need to talk, I'm here."
Jade smiled, and started laughing. "I know, I know. But you know I'd put you in St. Mungo's if you crashed my wedding. Poor Draco...he'd be in the hospital." She gave him a disgusted look as he mention work. "Believe me, I know. So, I'm sure, does Li Na and everyone else. That's why he's so good at work."

Draco smiled. "Thanks."
"Not if I put you there first."Draco said with a smirk. "And to think, on your wedding day and everything."he said with a shake of his head. Draco sighed. "Yeah, he is good... He reports to me, so I would know."Draco said, a bit boastful of the fact that he was higher up.

"Awww, you don't have the balls to do me in, babe! I'm too cute for that!" Jade pouted at him, making her eyes water. "If you would have destroyed my wedding, there's no telling on what I would have done to you. Then comes my mother and who ever else would have been there. You never piss a woman off, man. They tear shit up when they're pissed."

Draco frowned. "I've pissed off countless woman by now."he said simply. Afterall, he had pissed off Li, and him mum, and many others. "And as for cute..."he said. "Perhaps, but if I shut my eyes when I killed you then it would hardly matter."

"I can scream really, really loud!" Jade chirped, grinning. "That may be so, but you haven't pissed this woman off yet. You'd have known if you did!" She laughed, knowing that they could go on and on all night with the comebacks. Yes...it felt good to be herself after three months of pretending.

Draco shook his head. "Obviously you forget the time I called Li Na a bitch and said I hated her."he told her with a smirk, remembering how furious she was. Draco actually was more hurt now then he had been back then. His schooldays were his good memories, which wasn't something to be proud of. "And I could just gag you, and you couldn't scream, smartie."

"Hmm....well, that wasn't as monstrious as smashing a wedding. I'll be sure to warn you so you can try to get your wand out when you do make me mad." She grinned cheekily at him, twirling a piece of hair around her fingers. "You could gag me, yes. But, you'd have scars from where I scratched you up."

Draco shrugged. "I have scars as it is, I reallycould care less."he muttered. "And I'd tie your hands up first so that you couldn't pull the gag off, you'll have to remember that bit."Draco said with a smirk.

Grinning quirkily at him, she replied, "Oh, but you'd have to come in range first." She laughed, and shrugged her shoulders. "Plus, I'd still have my feet." She winked at him, then got to more serious business. "Speaking of work...isn't the training deal coming up soon?" She asked off-handedly.
"I don't know what I'm going to do, really. I'm so confused right now. If I get in, though, it'll work better," she muttered.

Draco narrowed his eyes. "Training as in what?"he questioned.
There was no way that Jade could be a DE, was there? Didn't she know better?

"Training, as in...y'know. Training training. Don't play dumb here, D...Brice," Jade said quickly as a couple strolled by. "You know exactly what I'm talking about. Before you go on your tangent, let me explain..."
Taking a deep breath, she squared her shoulders and looked him in the eyes, "There's some things going on and this is a way to figure them out. With or without you, I will do it."
