Gwendolyn had promised Draco that she would stop by his new club that morning, following her shift at the Ministry. She'd been working the early shift all of that week, and was therefore finished shortly before noon. Following a very quick lunch of a salad and mineral water in Diagon Alley, Gwen made her way toward the club. It wasn't open yet, but Gwen was already looking forward to that celebration the following weekend. Besides there was also the perk of seeing Draco and giving him the private show she'd promised.

Arriving at the club, Gwendolyn spent a moment or two trying to find the appropriate entrance. The building itself looked very unimposing, and bare in daylight, though she imagined it would look entirely different at night. After a moment, Gwen found the right door and knocked, hoping Draco hadn't actually forgotten.

Draco was immersed in work as he had been for some days following the illness that had seemed impossible to shake. Victoria's potion had helped and now he was back, but the paperwork he had ignored was back as well, and was now staring him in the face and he was under a deadline. He had owled suppliers with last minute orders and healthy incentives for deliveries to be on time. He had the crew at his disposal for the finishing touches and he had a headache from all of it.

When he heard the knock, he got up to go answer the door, expecting it to be a delivery. It was at the back entrance as instructed. What he found instead brought a smirk to his lips. "Miss Montgomery," he said, opening the door wider to let her in, "I was wondering if you had forgotten me." He knew that she hadn't though and would show up sooner or later. They were a lot alike but they always seemed to make some time when the need arose.

He gestured around the dimly lit club. When it was lit up, it was quite striking. At the moment it was a bit more mysterious, not really showing what it would offer in two days. "Are you here to offer me some distraction from the evil that is paperwork and inventory? Your timing is perfect. I am very willing to be distracted."

Gwendolyn's eyes lit up as Draco answered the door. "Forget you, darling?" Gwendolyn said smoothly, knowing precisely what it was Draco wanted to hear. Draco wasn't exactly hard to figure out, it was merely a matter of saying what she would have liked to hear. "Never!" Brushing past him, close enough that she was almost but not actually touching him, Gwen entered the building.

Glancing around slowly, Gwen whirled on her heels looking at the rather large building. "That's precisely what I'm here for, Draco. I make a brilliant distraction," Gwen grinned and nodded as his final question. She reached out and took his hand in both of hers as she tugged him further into the building, where she imagined the dance floor would be. "Now tell me, have you been left here all day, all alone," she asked, stepping toward Draco and giving him a tiny pout as if she was feeling bad for him.
