   Summary

   While Hermione spirals over the smallest household chores, overwhelmed by hormones she doesn’t yet realise are changing everything, Draco stands there thinking he’s somehow the reason for all of it. Clueless, guilty, and still trying to comfort her through every emotional outburst. Another small glimpse into their everyday life—where love looks a lot like surviving each other’s chaos and figuring things out one argument at a time.
