Summary
When the Ministry of Magic came up with a rather brilliant solution to the population crisis - pairing up young unmarried witches and wizards with the purpose of procreation, Hermione could hardly believe it.
She certainly didn’t imagine that the first marriage proposal she’d receive would come from none other than Draco Malfoy.
What she’d never in a million years have dreamt was... that she’d actually accept it.***
A marriage law story with the main focus on pregnancy and the development of their relationship through the unusual start of their life together and the baby on the way. High on domesticity, fluff and smut, low on angst and miscommunication - just enough to spice things up.
***
This is Part 1 of their story and it's from Hermione's POV.

Summary
Sequel to Alium. You'd need to read that first for this to make any sense.
It had been a whirlwind of a few days, despite Severus having been at the castle for longer than usual over the summer. He was ahead in his brewing but behind in updating his lesson plans and making his timetable for meetings with the Slytherins, and then there were the usual pre-term meetings that Dumbledore insisted on holding. Keeping an eye on Harry over the summer had not been quite as onerous as Severus had feared, but the new puzzle of his horcrux, in addition to fitting in increased Death Eater duties to excuse his limited availability, had proven to be a substantial drain on his time.
Harry's sixth year begins, but with full awareness of the horcrux in his head and with Snape at his side.

Summary
When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.
Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story.
Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH. No slash, no romance. NOW COMPLETE!

Summary
It’s not until she’s brought a basil and strawberry sponge cake to Neville Longbottom and his new girlfriend, Hannah Abbott, a dozen rhubarb hand-pies to Luna and Xenophilius Lovegood, and another basket of ganache-covered muffins to Dean and Seamus, that Hermione admits to herself what she’s actually doing: she’s making a thing of this. It’s a veritable PTSD tour. With pastries. And hand-skimmed clotted cream. And she has no idea why she’s doing it, but it’s becoming very apparent that she is.
Sometimes you're sad. Sometimes you need dessert. And sometimes, it's a little of both.

Summary
Narcissa Malfoy is missing. Harry has no idea why the Unspeakables want him tagging along on the investigation, but he's not complaining. His job has never been this interesting.
His job has never before involved observing a fit, long-haired Draco Malfoy around the clock, or noticing how good he smells, or burning his breakfasts. They're not paying him to ask questions, or notice when something is terribly wrong, or take matters into his own hands.
Unfortunately, these are the things Harry Potter does best.

Harry likes kids. That doesn't mean he's ready for a small boy to turn up on the doorstep of Grimmauld Place insisting that Harry is his father. That was weird enough, but the child identifying Draco Malfoy as his other parent was something Harry had no bloody idea how to handle.

Summary
The Dark Lord is dead. The Order won.
Regulus Black, traitor and Voldemort’s favorite plaything, should be rotting in Azkaban—but his knowledge of the Horcruxes bought him a different fate: exile, invisibility, a life erased.
No wand. No name. No mercy.
And no one knows about the child.

Summary
How did it feel? It felt like he was barely holding it together. She, of all people, should shun him. Or yell at him. Curse him. Spit at him. Take out her wand and blast him off the face of the earth. It was crushing guilt and relief and confusion all at once when he looked at Hermione Granger.
The monotony of Draco’s daily routine had become both a lifeline and a noose. But this new habit of grabbing coffee with Hermione Granger is quickly becoming a reason to get out of bed and is unfortunately forcing him to re-evaluate his inconsequential existence.
Hermione is living her life in fragments, separate pieces scattered about, and she can’t find a way to step back and let the full picture form. Why are morning meetings with Draco Malfoy the only thing that make sense anymore?Series

Summary
Harry and Draco are perfectly fine, separately minding their business in 2004, when the Unspeakables conscript them into service... in the First War against Voldemort.
Come for mutual pining and forced proximity in a 1980 hotel room, stay for young Sirius and philosophising about immortality and wormholes. And an eighties cowboy soap opera.
