Not a twisted romance

There's a fine line between love and hate.

'Have mercy will you? Every time you speak you undo me.'
'Loving someone, wanting them, when they don’t want you is like that point during Apparition when you are being squeezed from all sides, only you never pop out on the other side.'
'Love is the lever that moves the world'
'He reminds her of birds in a grey sky, flashing over a moving sea. He reminds her of twilight in winter, with barren branches digging out the moon. He reminds her of moss-won stone under the setting of a golden sun.'
'This was not some twisted romance after all.'

Senja and Mandy’s Recs:

  • Chocolate and Waterfalls - PG, one shot - Hermione is brewing a special treat for Draco.
  • Cupid’s Fool - K+, 2 chapters - It’s Valentine’s Day at Hogwarts. Draco is searching for his mystery Valentine writer. Hermione is searching for her lost sonnet. What will they find? A short and sweet little bit of fluff.
  • Graveyard Valentine- T, one shot - Hermione thought she was the only person in the world who would spend Valentine’s Day in a Graveyard, but she was wrong. He’s there. Every single year, with his gloves, roses, and answers. Dramione Valentine’s Day one-shot. Post-Hogwarts. EWE.
  • Marietta Edgecombe’s Valentine Revenge- T, one shot - Marietta Edgecombe has been waiting for years to get her revenge on Hermione Granger. Narcissa Malfoy soon presents the perfect opportunity and Marietta is going to grab it with both hands.
  • Ribbons - M one shot - It’s tricky being a teenager. It’s tough being the most talked about couple at Hogwarts. It’s even more difficult saying those Three Little Words.
  • Saving Valentine’s- T, 5 chapters - When a boycott is launched at Hogwarts targeting Valentine’s Day, it is up to the Head Boy and Head Girl to derail it. Unfortunately, given how well Draco and Hermione work together, they might wind up being its unwitting ally.
  • Surprise! - G, drabble - no summary
  • The Office - NC-17, one shot - Hermione visits Draco at the office.
  • Valentine’s Cards - T, one shot - “I’ll be damned if our son marries a Potter or, worse, a Weasley!” “Draco, he’s only six years old!” Draco misinterprets his son making Valentine’s Day cards. Dramione family Valentine’s one shot.
  • Valentine’s Rendez Vous - K+, 8 chapters - A short story about Draco and Hermione’s meetings each Valentine’s Day. Light and fluffy, to get people in the spirit for my favourite Hallmark Holiday.

“He’s not good enough for you.”  Well, that’s not an answer I expected to come from him. Now I’m curious.  Inquisitively, “Oh, and who do you think is good enough for me?”  “No one,” he admits with a grumble, “But, I was—” Draco pauses and fixes his lips sternly, like he’s determined.  Our eyes lock and I see a bit of softness in them, just a touch, just enough to make me no longer want to dangle him in front of the fireplace until the end of time.  When he speaks, he turns his head away from me, but his voice is raw and honest, “No one is good enough for you, Hermione…but I’m really just hoping I’m not out of chances with you.”  I’ve dreamed about this moment for years, albeit my dreams don’t have him barreling into my flat and they don’t involve me looking hideous in plaid pajama pants and a tank top that’s a bit too tight with my hair on top of my head in a messy bun…and I’m not pregnant in this dream either.  Try as I may, I can’t deny the feelings I have for him. I just can’t.  “Are you saying all this because of the baby?” I have to make sure because I want him to want me, not just because of this baby, not because of sympathy either.  I’m sure he’s so frustrated with me right now that he wants to throw something, but he just sighs and speaks to me with his eyes closed, “No, the baby has nothing to do with this. I just want a chance. That’s all I’ve wanted for the last three years, one month, and twenty-nine days. Just a chance.” his eyes open and pierce right into mine.

imtomriddle:

“Life is quick. Everything is fleeting. All we have in life are moments, Granger. You have to learn when to hold on and when to let go.”

“Do you know when to?”

He shrugs a shoulder, reaching out a finger under the hem of her shirt to graze the skin of her hip. “I don’t know. I do what I think is best for my life and I hope it works.”

“And if it doesn’t?”

“There’s the fallout. And life starts all over again — just in a different way.”

Title: Those Dark Days

Author: Alice R. Llewelyn (me)

Location: fanfiction.net

Genre: Angst, Romance.

Tags: Dramione, Post-Hogwarts, Voldemort wins, Character death.

Summary: There are two kinds of people in this world: Those who possess the courage to live, and those who possess the courage to die. I no longer know which one I possess. I remember I once possessed it-the courage to live, I mean. It once shaped my life, just like it shaped many others. But things happen, time passes. The war happened. Story told through Hermione’s Diary.

Status: Complete.

Other info: If you’re looking for an angsty story, this is it. It is very dark, and realistic in my opinion. Given the story’s circumstances, it has a “happy” ending. 

Give it a read and review if you’d like!!!

The Fallout by everythursday

Hermione learns about growing up through the redemption of Draco Malfoy.

To be honest, I didn’t expect this fic to grow on me as much as it did. I haven’t finished it yet— I’m getting close, but I’m afraid to. If I don’t read the last chapter, then it doesn’t exist and I don’t have to face the fact that this story has an end.  Don’t worry, I will finish it one day. I’ll read it slowly, bit by bit, sitting next to someone who can hold me when I reach the last word. But I think that for now, I’d rather stay in the dark.
