Summary
It’s been weeks since your first and only hook up with Abby, not by choice, as the both of you were sent in opposite directions, Abby to the FOB to play the role of dutiful right hand to Issac, you to the far boundaries of the city where the cool damp of the forest slowly encroached year by year no matter how many trees the WLF cleared.
But now you’re back at the stadium, finally off of rotation with a glorious handful of days of rest, decent food, and most importantly warmth ahead of you. If you hope Abby has the same, you keep that thought to yourself.

The way Billy stills against him as their lips connect and definitely doesn’t kiss him back is like a knife to the gut.

Summary
“You need to stop playing whatever game you’re playing with Steve.” Nancy says, it’s rushed, like all of the words were fighting their way out of her mouth at once.
“What game?” Billy asks, denial feels like the easy route, play dumb and pretend he doesn’t know what she’s talking about. Even if the look on her face tells him that she knows that he knows.

Summary
Malfoy’s growl-like exhale brought her attention back to him. "If you go all bleeding-heart on me, I'm leaving you here."
She snapped her eyes back to his. "Wait…You’ll take me?"
In answer, he glared at her while he dug the small bag from his pocket and tipped its contents into his palm, leaving a tiny wooden star there.
Hermione only stared at his proffered hand, the shock of his decision to allow her to join him sending her body into an immobilized state.
"Twelve seconds, Granger."
Before she could think of a better option, Hermione placed her own hand into his palm, almost as if she were accepting an invitation to dance with him.
His hand was warm against hers, and despite the absurdity of the circumstances, her body slowly uncoiled in relief, anticipating the balm to her raw nerves the quiet forest was sure to provide.
Or
Hermione and Draco attend the same magi-scientific field study in the Forbidden Forest and decide the strange reactions they begin to have to each other are the perfect excuse to indulge in things they typically wouldn’t consider.

Summary
Malfoy’s hand is unforgiving against her own, squeezing hard enough that it aches. Hermione digs her nails in, knowing the sensitive expanse of his pale skin will be marked for hours.
A fair trade, considering the heavy diamond ring on her finger that feels like a shackle. Her hand and arm still tingle from the binding magic, and she can’t risk looking down at it. She knows if she does, she’ll remember the gold strand that wrapped around her skin, tying them together for the rest of their miserable lives.

Summary
Hermione Granger is supposed to be focused on her thesis, not losing her mind over a mysterious tattooed Instagram biker with too many thirsty fans.
Draco Malfoy is supposed to be normal, just another student at UCL. Definitely not running said anonymous account.But between chaotic study sessions, late-night rides, and the Chaos Coven cheering from the sidelines, keeping secrets gets complicated. Especially when blurry selfies, cryptic captions, and way too much sexual tension start blurring the line between online mystery and real-life romance.
A social media AU full of banter, slow-burn tension, and more caffeine than anyone should legally consume.

Summary
Draco Malfoy is the Quidditch League's most controversial Chaser. Fast, ruthless, and untouchable on the field. Off the field, though? A walking scandal. He’s got a penchant for illegal broom-racing, starting brawls, and partying like the end is nigh. Now, with sponsors threatening to pull out and the League ideating his suspension, his team’s legacy is circling the drain. The solution? PR rehab. Ministry-backed and painfully public.
Enter: Hermione Granger. She’s the Ministry’s Saint Swot and the face of the Magical Community Unity Initiative, a campaign to promote post-war healing through charity, outreach, and celebrity involvement. For maximum impact (and maximum headache), she has to work with none other than notorious bad boy Draco Malfoy aka Malfoy the Menace.
For six long months, they’re stuck together doing programmes, galas, photoshoots, tense interviews, and a joint weekly column in The Daily Prophet. Cue the bickering, untimely erections, and locker room confrontations. It’s bad boy meets good girl. It’s ripe with sexual tension. It’s the cliché you love.
