    Summary

    He regards her with interest, cool as the ice in his G&T. “What do you want?”

    On close inspection, he's a bit deadly. It's the combined power of self-regard, an open ear, and a cunningly tailored suit.

    Hermione wants—

    “An expiration date would be nice.” She suctions up the watery dregs and signals for more. “Let’s say I want . . . a year. Exactly one year of monogamy without the possibility of further commitment."

    Summary

    "Give it up, Granger. We've had our N.E.W.T. results for a week. What can possibly have earned your continued academic devotion in the last four days of term?"
    Hermione placed a hand in the open pages of a third edition of Narayanan's Elidated Incantations: Shifting Paradigms in Articulated Casting and looked down at Draco.
    He lay beside her in the field of grass outside the Quidditch pitch, prone and with his eyes closed, baptising himself in the benevolence of a cloudless day in late spring.

    Draco and Hermione have a lazy snuggle in the grass behind the Quidditch pitch.

    Summary

    As she looked around her living room - at the green velvet ottoman she didn't remember purchasing, the 14th century Wizarding texts on her bookshelf, the hideous and obnoxiously ostentatious grandfather clock that could only belong to a Malfoy - she pictured the toothbrush next to hers on her bathroom counter, the old Slytherin quidditch jersey she regularly tripped over in her bedroom, and the mint chocolate chip ice cream in her freezer - a flavour she abhorred, but that a particular, pale, pointy faced aristocrat sat across from her had a tragic fondness for. 

     

    Her chest burning, as if she drank a barrel of bubotuber pus, Hermione turned to him with narrowed, accusing eyes. "Malfoy...are we dating?" 

     

    If there's one thing Hermione Granger knows, it's that she simply doesn't have time to date. Draco decides to date her, anyway.
