"You're a goddamn catalyst, you know that?" He said slowly, the wind picking up and blowing his hair into his eyes. "Every single emotion I feel, they become whole damn explosions because of you."
I sat there frozen, my breath caught in my throat.
I make him feel explosions.
I think of quicksilver eyes and pinkies brushing against one another and shared earbuds.
You make me feel how I imagine touching the stars would be.
Say it. Say it. Say it.
Nothing comes out.
Draco's expression shuttered closed, his spine going rigid. He stood up quickly, towering over me, and he held his broken arm out. "I know we bleed the same, Granger. I bled for you."

Disclaimer: some parts towards the end are straight from the original Deathly Hallows book/movie, more towards the last few chapters becausa jkr wrote the scenes well and I didn't want to rewrite canon. This was to highlight the outcomes of the story that do not change despite Draco and Hermione's relationship and everything that entails. I added a few things such as changing it to Hermione's POV, adding her thoughts, and changing some details to fit the story.

Harry and friends are returning to Hogwarts for an 8th year to complete their studies, but the last person he expected to return was Draco Malfoy. Can he put their old rivalry behind them and start anew? Draco has been dealing with his own struggles since the war, and finds himself in a very dark place when Harry Potter, of all people, comes back into his life. Can he offer what Draco desperately needs - a friend, or maybe more? This is the story of two boys working through old bitterness, sexuality, mental health, and new foes amidst the end of the war and their return to Hogwarts. Author's Note: This is a slow burn, enemies to lovers, with a lot of angst but a decent amount of fluff too, more of a plot than just the romance and a happy ending (trust me). Relationships are Harry x Draco, Ron x Hermione, and Pansy x Blaise. Updates will be regular because it's all already written out, and I will be publishing on AO3 at the same under the same name. There is also a playlist associated with the fic and a song for each chapter, so please check that out as well (link will be at the start of the first chapter). This is my first fanfic so all support is appreciated!Complete
Scarred but still yours
It's easy to think that the greatest battles are fought on the front lines, in dark alleys or behind closed doors. But for Hermione Granger, the most painful war was one she fought in the silence, on her own. Her marriage to Ron Weasley, once a symbol of hope belonging, had deteriorated into something unrecognisable. Behind the warmth of the Burrow, there were shadows-violent, destructive, and suffocating. But some battles, she would learn, were beyond her ability to win alone. When the chance to escape came, she took it. With nothing but her courage and a few belongings, she fled the life that had once promised so much, seeking solace in the place where her heart had always found peace: Hogwarts. But even within the walls of her beloved school, the scars of her past could not be erased. Not until she found herself working alongside an unexpected ally-Draco Malfoy. The boy who had once stood as her enemy, the one who had tormented her and her friends, now offered her a different kind of support. As time passed, the distance between them began to close, their shared history no longer a wall, but a foundation. They find something in each other they never expected to find again-safety, understanding, and love. But just as they begin to rebuild what had been lost, a shadow from Hermione's past returns to haunt her. Ron, desperate and enraged, comes to Hogwarts-his anger consuming him. He attacks Hermione with the same violence she had escaped from, and in that moment, Draco becomes her protector. This is their story-one of rediscovery, of healing, and of love rekindled against all odds. Together, they will rise from the ashes of their broken pasts and embrace the future both of them have always craved. ****Please note, this fic includes graphic descriptions of traumatic events including all aspects of physical abuse****Complete
The Internal Devices
"You're a good friend, Hermione." She narrowed her eyes at him. "So we're on a first-name basis now?" He shrugged. "I feel it's only fair after spending every moment of our free time in a lab together. Also," he scratched at his chin in thought, "I'm pretty sure you're dating my best mate."

Behind Enemy Lines (D.M.)
The space between us disappeared. "Scared of what he'll say?" His hot breath was vexing, in both agony and tone. My eyes narrowed at his assumptions that I cared enough. "Aren't you scared of what I'll do?" My eyes casted down to the wand he didn't see slide up. It was pointed at the firm hand on my throat. "You've always underestimated me, Malfoy." Each word dripped like honey, causing his smirk to twist. A cat and mouse stuck in tormenting circles. His gaze dropped to my lips, a heat igniting in the silence between us. - Where there is smoke: there's fire. The same smokey eyes that watched her too closely all these years. Lillian Petunia Potter, named after her mother, had to fly under the radar and hide in the shadows while her infamous twin brother basked in the hero limelight. She played too close with fire and got herself burned one too many times. Will Malfoy cause her life to go up in flames? Will she freely jump into them if it means risking it all? *** This fan fiction will be loosely following the plot. For the sake of everyone, the plot spans over a couple of year. The first few chapters of the story is story building and to help add slow burn .The majority of the story they will be consenting 17+ year olds.

Fickle Is As Fickle Does
One mistake is all it takes. Draco Malfoy was never supposed to touch her-let alone haunt her thoughts, threaten her silence, or make her crave what she fears most. Hermione knows what he is. She knows what he's capable of. Still, she keeps choosing him. In a Hogwarts on the brink of war, desire becomes leverage, secrecy becomes survival, and love curdles into obsession. Hello, hello. So I have a Spotify playlist of most of the songs I used to inspire me to write this fic. So if you like you can pop it on while you give this fic a read.

Hold me under the stars-Drarry
"YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ME!" He yelled as his whole body trembled in front of me. His breath hit me in the face, a sweet and cool scent. But deadly. Heat rose in my body as I felt how close his body was to mine. "Then tell me why you hate me so much!" I cried back. Rage radiated through his skin. He forced his hand onto my throat and pressed it just enough for me to let blows of air slip through. I felt his cold rings dig into my skin as he leaned even closer. "I HATE YOU BECAUSE YOU HAVE EVERYTHING!" he roared. I didn't have a chance to speak as he continued. "Ever since you started here, you've just strolled through the halls as if no insecurities lay beneath your skin. I hate the way you laugh like the world is fine as it is. The way you breathe like you know it isn't your last." I met his gaze as the last words blurted out. "I hate you because you make it look easy." This story is not set in the usual magical world as you know it. Instead, this story will bring the characters we dearly love closer to home by bringing them into our own world. But what happens when the world suddenly seems heavy? When love, friendship, and hatred enter the life of Harry Potter. A/N: This book contains sexual content, MLM, and cursing. If you are not comfortable with that, I wouldn't recommend this book to you. ! NONE OF THE CHARACTERS ARE MY OWN AND THEY BELONG TO JK ROWLING! Idk, I think that's what you're supposed to sayComplete
Love Thy Enemy// Drarry
"It's one of the commandments after all Harry, love thy enemy." "I'm pretty sure that's not one of the commandments Ginny." "Oh whatever, he knows what I mean." ---- One final year at Hogwarts. That's all that stands in the way between Harry Potter and the rest of his life. Except, he's not even sure what he wants to do with the rest of his life. Hell, he hadn't even expected to live this long if he was being honest. But here he was, alive and well and completely unsure of himself. Everyone keeps telling him that he can relax now, have a normal life, but normal flew out the window the day he learned he was a wizard. Voldemort is gone, (for good this time) and Harry is struggling with his purpose, his fate, his future. The one thing that Harry thought he could count on, the one thing Harry actually considered a part of his normal life, was the constant arguments, high tensions, and general teasing that Draco Malfoy would inflict upon him. But even that's changed. Draco Malfoy is different. He's quiet, reserved. Harry's not sure what to make of the new Draco and when they're paired up as partners in potions, Harry is anything but excited. But as the two enemies talk, as they get to know one another, their relationship takes a turn. A turn that neither of them could have expected.
