   Summary

   An accidental "dear."
   A deliberate "darling."

   A fake courtship that spirals wildly out of control.

   To escape a looming betrothal to Daphne Greengrass, Draco proposes a fake courtship. Hermione reluctantly agrees. After all, controlling the rumors is better, right? When exactly did the pretending stop?

   A post-war Hogwarts romantic comedy featuring pureblood politics, meddling friends, transfer students, disastrous wooing attempts, moonlit healing magic, and two idiots who take far too long to realize they're in love.

   Pairings: Draco Malfoy/Hermione Granger, Theodore Nott/Original Female Character, Blaise Zabini/Daphne Greengrass, Harry Potter/Ginny Weasley, Ron Weasley/Pansy Parkinson
