Fraternizing with the Enemy - Dramione

"I have a proposition for you," He said then, leaning back in his chair and looking at her with a smirk. "One that would be beneficial for both of us."

Hermione raised an eyebrow. "Go on."

"See, my mother has been trying to set me up with eligible women for a while now, and I, to be quite honest, cannot be bothered with it," He explained.

"What does that have to do with anything?" She asked, her brow furrowing in confusion.

"Answer me this: out of all the men that you could possibly date, who would annoy Weasley the most?"

"What-" She froze, his words starting to sink in and she stared at him in shock. "You're not suggesting..."

"Oh, but I am." He grinned widely, realizing that she was catching on now and he leaned forward to say in a low voice. "It's perfect; I get my mother off my back for the time being, and you can annoy the piss out of your ex-fiancé. Which, frankly, is a benefit for me too."

She continued to stare at him, her jaw dropping slightly. "Are you really suggesting that we date?"

"Not date," He shook his head quickly and corrected her, "Fake date."

"What on earth are you talking about?"

"A completely fabricated relationship," He said, smiling widely now. "And it doesn't even need to be long term. We can fool everyone for a few months, and then call it off amicably with no one the wiser."

"A fake relationship." She blinked a few times, really thinking it over now. She would have been lying to herself if she said the idea didn't sound tempting. And it would truly annoy Ron...

After a sudden, unexpected breakup with Ron, Hermione finds herself in a fake relationship with none other than Draco Malfoy, and as the ruse goes on she starts to question everything she thought she knew about herself and those around her.
