"shit shit shit im late and on my first fucking day that's just great" a flustered Ivy complained to herself as she stumbled out of a cab and rushed into the ministry, she was in fact too busy scolding herself she didn't see the tall man that she would then bump into as she was looking through her bag, "oh shit I am so so sorry" ivy began apologizing profusely. the man let out a chucking in a tone so low t sent shivers up ivys spine. "don't fret about it, accidents happen" and with a nod, he walked away. ivy couldn't help but stare as he walked away, his long blond hair flowing in the ever so slight breeze. ivy snapped out of her moment when she realized she was still very very late.

ivy eventually made it to her office, well it was a desk but she called it an office It made her feel more important, she was greeted by a woman who looked to be in her late 30s or early 40s who greeted her with a smile

ivy eventually made it to her office, well it was a desk but she called it an office It made her feel more important, she was greeted by a woman who looked to be in her late 30s or early 40s who greeted her with a smile. "hello dear, I'm donna I work in the office next door, I'm here to help you settle in and show you the ropes". donna seemed like a kind but firm woman, Ivy liked her she gave off a somewhat motherly vibe. donna showed Ivy everything she would need to know while she was working there. when donna had finished she gave Ivy a smile and left her to her work. ivy was the receptionist for the minister of magic. not the most daring job in the world but if it put food on the table and a roof over her head it was good enough for her

Ivy was not poor but she was not rich either, she was...comfortable, as she was filling out some paperwork the minister walked in, "Ah you must be my new assistant!", yes technically that was also in the ivys job description but she felt more important if she left it out, she didn't just wanna be a coffee bitch. "yes sir that's me, Ivy moody sir it is a pleasure to meet you" ivy smiled at her new boss hoping he didn't know about her being late that morning, overall he seemed quite nice, almost too nice. if ivys brother had taught her anything it was that people were not always what they seemed.

indeed Ivy had a brother, an older brother, her brother Alaster, yes alaster moody the well-known man who was in ivys opinion somewhat overly paranoid about literally everything. tho he was overly paranoid he did give good advice, he always taught Ivy to put it simply never trust anyone. ivy of course took everything her brother said with a pinch of salt and most of the time his advice was quite helpful, others it was not.

ivy was putting some papers in a filing cabinet when she heard the door behind her open, she turned to see the man she had bumped into earlier, she brushed a strand of her long red hair out of her face as she sat down yet again, "good afternoon sir may I help you?" she asked with a respectable smile, "I have an appointment with you boss" the man said with a somewhat unimpressed look on his face, ivy in an attempt to lighten the mood said "I would have guessed that sir who will I tell him is here?" the man looked somewhat confused at the fact she didn't know who he was, he chose to reply to her with a simple answer "malfoy".

he spoke in that same low tone from earlier, something about his voice yet again sent a shiver down her spine and this time she crossed her legs in an attempt to try and hide the effect it had on her, she must have done a pretty crap job because the man smirked at the girl as he looked down at her. she eventually composed herself after what felt like forever, after clearing her throat she spoke "you can just head on in there Mr malfoy"

something about her tone made lucius feel something, something he had never felt before, he felt nervous. something about the way she said his name made him nervous. no that can't be right. Maybe he was coming down with a cold or a fever and he was having hot flashes he thought to himself, women don't make lucius malfoy nervous. he shook it off and walked into the office via a door behind the woman's desk.
