Draco Malfoy wasn't as untouchable as she had once thought him to be. In this moment, he looked scared and nervous and Amicia thought it was absolutely wonderful. It served as a reminder to her that he was only human, capable of feeling fear, insecurity, and possibly even remorse. It reignited a hope for him that she previously extinguished and now she had a choice before her, to either smother the flame or to nurture it.

Cheers, Potter. by NocturnalCarrot

After the Second Wizarding War, Malfoy found himself alienated from the majority of the school; his old friends just irritated him, all of Hogwarts' students (besides a few salty Slytherins) hated and feared him, and the school he'd once called home seemed to want him out. Draco felt more alone than he ever had... That is, until one Harry James Potter came to realise his supposed arch enemy's dejection and pitied him. The Chosen One couldn't help but reach out. A slow burn Drarry fanfiction. Character-driven, not plot-driven. TRIGGER WARNING: Bullying and isolation. Also alluding to depression and PTSD. PS. If you're here for the smut, it's the chapters with the Lenny Faces ;) PPS. I use way too many commas. If that bugs you, don't read.

Draco Malfoy x Reader One Shots by Pride_of_Slytherin

"Draco Malfoy was ice. His skin was pale, his features were sharp, and his words were cold. He bit out insults and harsh truths like it was his role in life to do so, and his cool expression would tell you that he thought nothing of it. He was harsh, unforgiving. Ice. But when you met up with him, in free hours between classes or after dark, in the room of requirements or in the astronomy tower, there was a heat that thawed his cold apathy, a burning type of heat when his fingers dragged through your hair or over your skin, intense. And then he was fire. He was untamed and untamable, unquenchable, and it left you without breath. But no matter what type of seizing extreme he was, Draco Malfoy was unattainable. Yours only as long as the flames were alight or the ice was mind numbing, encompassing. And when it had struck you that that wasn't enough, that he was an unpredictable constant you desired in more ways than you had both settled upon, Draco Malfoy was only ice..."

Fortunate Misfortune ( A Draco Malfoy Fan Fiction) by violettbluegreenn

Its his last year at Hogwarts and former Hogwarts bully, Draco Malfoy just wants to clean up his act and get through the year. Maybe even apply for a potions fellowship and date Astoria Greengrass. His plan seems perfect on paper except for a minor hiccup in the form of a feisty Hufflepuff girl... ** "Everything feels...easier with you." He mumbled quietly. "It doesn't feel that way with anyone else." "I know." *** "Say that again." He whispered, gently pressing his forehead to hers. "My name, the way you said it Esme, Please." "Draco."

The Girl Who Lived (Draco Malfoy x OC) by missingn0te

"Must be tough, everyone loves you, don't they? So goddamn perfect. They don't see it but I do, Potter. I can see straight through you." "And what do you see, Malfoy?" "That you're a mess, aren't you?" She stared at him, rivalling his own expressionless mask. "You're the first person to say that to me." "Well of course," he swung a leg, pacing around her lazily. "Everyone is too busy seeing the hero, but when you hate someone enough, you see their flaws, their weaknesses." Her mask fell and she smiled to herself. "So you hate me?" She said, playfully. "Of course, isn't that what we do, hate each other?" The smile grew enough for dimples to appear. "I guess so." "So yes, I hate you." "I hate you too," she smiled. Draco couldn't help it, his lips tugged slightly at the corners while laughter stayed restrained in his glimmering eyes. "Good, I'm glad that's established," Draco announced. "We hate each other." --------------------------- A miserable childhood of neglect, Harper Potter needed someone to teach her the ability to love in order to overcome the darkest wizard of all time. She just wasn't expecting that someone to be the guy who taunted her every quidditch match. Featuring. Female Harry x Draco

Infatuated-Draco Malfoy x OC by Cstories02

Infatuation is never a good thing, especially for newly found deatheater, Draco Malfoy. Feelings of any sort, for any one, would only put his heart at risk of being broke. With the dark lord on the rise again, Draco cannot risk being infatuated with another but when Juliet Walter's catches his eye and pulls him in with her mysterious demeanour, he finds himself in the biggest predicament of his life...please his father and keep his family alive or put his life on the line to keep her safe? (18+ story- swearing, violence, mentions of suicide, alcohol use, sexual content) I do not own any characters except for my original character. The plot loosely follows that of the Harry Potter franchise but a lot is changed to accommodate my character.

Second Chance (DRAMIONE) by xysn1526

"You filthy little mudblood!" Draco yelled at Hermione when they were in their first year at Hogwarts. Hermione ran away with tears in her eyes. Then Draco realized that he was also hurt by his mean words, but in a way he couldn't tell what the feeling was. Draco ran to Hermione to apologize, and she stared straight into his eyes. "You know what Malfoy? Sometimes, I wonder what would happen if YOU were the hero, and Harry was the bad boy." Draco looked down. "I'm sorry Gra...Hermione..." Later that day Draco found his dad's time-turner... He wants to know...

The Stars Aligned by dr4c0sl0v3

"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." _____ slowburn dramione starting fifth year book 1 in The Starlight Duology spotify book playlist: "the stars aligned" (each song in order fits every chapter) *I do not own any of these characters or this fictional world. All rights go to JK Rowling* 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.

The Boy Who Had a Choice (D.M) by LouisaWrites_

Olivia Dagon had expected many things from her final two years at Hogwarts, but falling in love with the boy she had grown to hate since 1st year was not one of them. After breaking up with her girlfriend, she'd thought that having to go back to school and face her would be the hardest part but after finding herself in a toxic, twisted new relationship and experiencing horrors she never thought possible, that was the least of her worries. With new drama following Olive round every corner, would she be enough to persuade Draco to make the right choice or would she be left heartbroken and alone? A retelling of the last two Harry Potter books, the story I think Draco Malfoy deserved and how it should've gone if he'd got the redemption he deserved. This is a fast moving, toxic, smutty story with both original and new characters included. Enjoy :) 18+ readers only ps this is my first time writing anything so pls be nice coz I'm legit just making it up as I go! Cover was made by @Elusive_Soul, thank you!!
