    Summary

    Hermione Granger arrives in a small seaside town with two suitcases, a cat, a burnout she can't seem to shake, and absolutely no intention of staying.
    Ron Weasley has lived there his whole life. Well. Almost.
    Between the fishing boat he inherited, the grief he never quite unpacked, and the future he stopped planning for years ago, staying has always seemed easier than leaving.
    Then Hermione shows up.

    Summary

    “I do nothing out of the goodness of my heart. Every dress I have purchased, every galleon that has slipped from my fingers, every man I have ruined for you, I have not done for something so asinine as kindness.”

    Lucius leans over her. His hand is against her back, keeping her close as he murmurs in her ear.

    “My care is a loan I grant you, mon trésor. And your payment has come due.”

    Summary

    Hermione Granger’s life five years post war was one of simplicity. She had her bookshop in the little village where her flat resided just upstairs. Her friends were all happy and healthy, living the lives they’d always dreamed of. She’d come to peace with the death of her parents. It was all going well.

    That is, until threats made against her life bring the one wizard she had tried so hard to forget crashing back into her life.

    Greg Goyle was not meant to be a part of her life, not anymore. However, his orders to head her protection detail couldn’t care less what the stubborn witch wants.

    Summary

    A stubborn lock of hair gets tucked behind Malfoy's ear twenty-six times. Harry only counts because what else has he got to do.

    Homework, Hermione's shrill voice sounds in his head. Oh, Harry, you have so much homework, you're behind on everything, what are you doing? Did you really come back for eighth year just to spy on Draco Malfoy again?

    It's a good question. Twenty-seven, now.

    Summary

    “If only she had some gin, you could–-” But the rest of his taunt, sure to incite a reaction as Ron hated gin, was cut off by an excited whoop from Theo.

    “Oh my, Father Christmas has been extra generous to me this year!”

    Blaise had half forgotten about the mistletoe so played his part to perfection by looking over his shoulder with genuine confusion at Theo, rather than up where he knew the plant was surely hanging above their heads.

    “What now?” He asked long-sufferingly. Theo just grinned and pointed.

    “Ah.” Ron sounded sheepish but when Blaise looked over at him, his expression was amused.

    “Peck on the cheek?” He offered, knowing it wouldn’t be sufficient to satisfy the magical plant.

    “Absolutely not!” insisted Theo from behind them. “It’s Christmas! And I’ve been so good this year.” Harry’s resounding scoff made Ron snicker. He set down his bottle of ale.

    “Come on then,” he said to Blaise, taking a step closer. “Let’s give the people what they want.”

    ---

    Or when my trademark Blaise and Ron friendship finally becomes more.
