Summary
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean… I’m sure it isn’t true.” Neville rambled, his shoulders shrinking away all of the tall confidence he had walked with a moment ago.
“Don’t be an idiot. Of course it’s true. Read the papers in a week, you’ll see.”
“Oh.” He almost looked more disappointed than she had been. Such unnecessary emotion. What did Draco see in these Gryffindors?
“Don’t you dare pity me.” Pansy pulled out her wand, ignoring his slight flinch as she charmed her glass to fill and took a deep drink.
The liquor warmed her veins, clouding her concentration and lowering her guard. She thought out loud, half forgetting that she had an audience. “Draco always wanted her, you know. I’m not blind. It was third year, maybe fourth? Suddenly he worshipped her. He set her up on a great pedestal and made it impossible to climb. And I just…I need to know, I think, is it too much to ask? For the rest of us, us mortals, to be…
“Worshipped?” his voice was soft and overly intimate, making her lips part in a silent gasp.

Summary
“Pansy, I’m still not seeing what this has to do with me. You all clearly know more about the curse than I do. So what could I…”
“Granger...” Pansy interrupted. “We need you because aside from Astoria, who is worsening with time…”
Pansy had to take a breath and steel herself at the words before she could continue. Astoria gave Pansy a brief nod and squeeze of the hand.
“You’re the only person who has ever survived it.”
*****
Or: Astoria's been cursed. Hermione may be the only person who can cure her.

Summary
Five years after the war, Draco Malfoy keeps his life small: a London flat, a forgettable Ministry job, and a policy of avoiding literally everyone. It’s working—he’s stable, if still sarcastic as hell—right up until Hermione Granger shows up to ruin his lunch.
Now a Ministry Investigator, she “requests” his help searching Malfoy Manor for a dangerous artifact…one the last Death Eaters are also hunting. But when a routine inspection turns into something far more tangled—surfacing long-buried truths—they’ll have to confront who they were and who they might become.
----
Or, Draco got therapy and space after the war. He's still an arse but is trying to be a better person when he reconnects with Hermione in an unexpected way.

Summary
Hermione is obsessed with Draco Malfoy’s hands. The way he holds a quill should be outlawed. Downright lethal. So she selects his birthday and Christmas gifts carefully—a means to try and temper her obsession. Each of them backfires. First it’s the pens, then it’s the laptop. And the typing. The sound goes straight between her thighs, and she constantly clucks her tongue and bites her lip to keep from blurting out her most indecent thoughts.
Which only makes him type faster.

Alternatively, Draco is obsessed with Hermione Granger’s mouth.

Summary
“What are you—? Draco.”
He glanced up, expression sheepish. “Yes, love?”
“Are you tracking my cycle?” She looked vaguely amused.
“I need to know when you’re ovulating.”
“You actually don’t need to know, because I haven’t given you permission to get me pregnant.”
“But you will,” he said hopefully.
She narrowed her eyes and flounced to the door, umbrella and briefcase in tow. “We’ll see.”
