I’m rereading Wait and Hope by mightbewriting, and this part will never not get me (spoilers ahead):

“Is that it, then? Are you telling me to leave?”

“That’s not what I meant,” she said, some of her fight draining. It was like beating a wounded creature, like he expected her to hurt him.

“Because I would,” he said, looking past her, avoiding. “If you really wanted me to, needed me to, I would. Because it’s not difficult, doing anything for you.”

😭😭😭😭

My dear, my darling one…

Hey! I'm looking for more Dramione on my dash. It's so completely empty right now. If you're into Draco x Hermione, follow me, reblog this (bc really I'd love to follow more Dramione HP blogs) and I'll follow you! It would absolutely make my day.

chapter 28

Ron took a huge swig from his bottle and looked at Harry and Hermione, a smile lifting his features.

"Three of us finally back together, eh? Hardly got to talk to you two last night."

epilogue

Something had shifted. It wasn't that he'd turned noble overnight. It was just that he knew he couldn't live in a world in which she was never safe and they were never accepted.

chapter 27

"When we're out there. Keep a part of you for me. For us. No matter what happens."

"I will. And you too. No matter what."

"No matter what." He clutched at her then, lifting her from the mattress and pulling her so tightly to him that she gasped. He felt her arms go around him and her palms splay wide against his back, gathering him to her too.

They stayed locked that way for a long moment before she slowly pushed him down, climbing over him and kissing him slowly.

Draco reached up and kissed her back, resolved to lose himself one last time before morning.

Would they be ok?

Would their side win?

Would she see people she… loved, again?

chapter 25

"For what it's worth," he said in her ear, "you drove me out of my mind that day too. Both before and after I knew it was you."

His words quieted her, and she stopped sputtering at Brown, then twisted to look down at him. "Did I?" she said lightly. "But you were so rude to me the next time we met! You said odious things about my clothes, if I recall."

Draco reached around her and took a long sip from his glass of champagne. "You were hardly a ray of sunshine yourself."

"Draco Malfoy!"

chapter 26

"Yeah?" Theo stopped at the door.

"Just. Thanks, man." Draco slowed and held out his hand.

Theo looked down at it and back up at Draco's face with a puzzled expression, but he put out his hand and took Draco's. "For?" he asked with a little shake of his head.

Draco pulled him forward and into a half-embrace, clapping his back roughly. "Just… everything," he said as he pulled back. "For this summer. I'm glad we were in this together."

chapter 24

"Do you want to talk about that too?"

"And tell you what a complete fucking idiot, arsehole I was? Not sure." He put his forehead in his hand.

"You don't have to."

"No." He looked up after a few moments. "You might as well know the whole of it. Especially if we're going to be real friends. Might want to get out now."

"Oh, Theo."

He took a deep breath.

chapter 21

"Tell me one more thing?"

"Mmm hmm." Her eyes were dark on his as she tilted into his caress.

"When he kissed you," he slanted his mouth to hers. "Did he kiss you like this?" He slid his other palm around her waist and pulled her to him as he moved against her lips, deep and intense.

chapter 22

"Hey, hey." His voice was very soft as he gently pulled her hands away from her face. "What?"

"It's just the risks, Draco." Her voice broke and she felt her eyes fill.

He shifted and pulled her into his arms, against his chest. "I can't stand by and do nothing. Not anymore. It's personal now." He stroked her hair.

chapter 23

"Oh that will go well with the wine," he said, pulling a cold bottle of prosecco from his rucksack.

"A cooling charm?" She tsked at the bottle. "Naughty, naughty."

"Oh, you don't want any, then?" He arranged his face in lines of mock-innocence.

"Hand it over, Malfoy."

He laughed as he popped the cork. "I'll trade you for a peach."

She was cutting the fruit into slices, but paused and popped half of one into her mouth. "You'll have to come and get it."

chapter 20

"I meant it." He kept his eyes on hers. "No pulling back. No pulling away. I don't want to, and I don't think I could." He picked up her hand and rested his lips on her fingers.

"And you'll come in today? To the cafe and see me? Because I can't—" She broke off and her eyes darted to the side, "I can't do that again, Draco. Where you reject me."

He slid his hands up and cradled her face. Looked into her eyes. "I know. And I will absolutely be there today and tomorrow. And every other day we're here together. Nothing could keep me from it."

chapter 19

Theo shrugged and slid the pack out of his shirt pocket. "OK, but I have to warn you that the first time is reported to be almost uniformly disgusting." A hint of his dimple appeared in his cheek. "Some people even—" He mimicked throwing up.

"Why on earth do they do it, then?" Hermione took a slender white cylinder from him and their fingers brushed just slightly.

His eyes went back to hers. "It's a compulsion," he said with another shrug. "Addictive."
