Thank you, thank you!! It's been driving me nuts!

I read this a while ago, and can't for the life of me remember the title! It opens with Lucius and Hermione in a carriage (?) after a big event, and Hermione has a like something like "I think it's because you're bad in bed" Plot follows: post war. they've been friends for years, Hermione lives in the Manor, and everyone else thinks they've been sleeping together the whole time, but they're 'just friends'. They give it a shot, smut ensues, and a happily ever after. Anybody? Anything? Thanks for the help.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

I read this not too long ago, and being a *genius* I didn't bookmark it. What I remember is: Severus is headmaster after the war, and hires an assistant/ secretary, who happens to be Hermione. She's been working for the Malfoys the last few years and is good friends with them. Severus hasn't been in a relationship in years, and when Lucius discovers he's lusting after his assistant takes inordinate pleasure in ribbing him about it. I think (am not sure) that Hermione also has a penchant for wearing fifties style clothes, complete with seamed stockings and crinoline'd skirts. Help?
