   Summary

   Hermione Granger expects to spend only a few awkward minutes with Draco Malfoy when a Ministry lift breaks down late one evening. But as the promised five-minute wait stretches into an entire night, polite conversation gives way to laughter, unexpected confessions, and a growing intimacy neither of them anticipated. By morning, they may finally have found out who the other became after the war—and whether an entire night trapped together between floors could be the beginning of something more.
