Title: A Bad Apple
Rating: K
Warnings: none
Hermione watched eagerly as Draco picked up an apple from the bowl of fruits on their kitchen counter. He turned it over in his hands, inspecting it, before freezing. He burst out laughing. "Is this supposed to be a prank?"
She flushed. "Yes." Poking a gummy worm into an apple had seemed like a humorous idea at the time.
Draco couldn’t stop laughing. "You're adorable. Come here." He held his arms open, hugging her when she came over. "Care for a worm?" He held it out to her.
"No thanks."
"More for me," Draco replied, shrugging, eating the gummy worm.

Title: The Biter Bit
Rating: R
Warnings: None
“Turn the light off!”
Draco sounded so angry, Hermione instantly obeyed, and only when the bedroom was once more in darkness did it occur to her to wonder what the hell was going on.
She reviewed the evening: Draco’s birthday. Harry gave him a book. Ron...
“Oh god,” she said, “Ron spiked the mead! What’s he done to you?” She found her husband in the dark and frantically examined him, feeling for horns, scales, perhaps a tail...
Nothing. His lean, muscular body was still perfection.
“Sweetheart,” she pleaded, “tell me what’s happened.”
Draco’s rage exploded: “THAT BASTARD’S GIVEN ME FRECKLES!”

Warnings: None. Apologies for the title, I’ve been waiting 4 years to do this, since April 2012’s “practical joke” drabble, when I came up with this idea just minutes after the submission deadline. =)
Title: A Prank Gone Sweet or: A Story Of a Young, Married Couple- A Story of a Boy Named Draco and a Girl Named Hermione-A Story of a Couple Ready for the Next Step in Their Lives-They’ve Been Married a Short Time, following a Not-Quite Lengthy Engagement-A Story in Which the Boy Who Lived, Harry Potter, is Blamed for Things Which He Did Not Do.-A Story, in No More, but No Less Than Exactly One Hundred Words, as Dictated by this Group for its Drabbles-A Story So Short it is Difficult to Describe Anything like Hermione’s Bushy Brown Hair, or Draco’s Steely Grey Eyes-And Last but not Least, a Story in Which the Title is Longer than the Story Itself.
“Hermione, did you let Potter mess with my stuff?”
“Why, what’s wrong?” Hermione questioned.
“My stuff! It’s tiny; for kids!! First my toothbrush, and look! I’m eating on china fit for Teddy!” Draco grasped the plasticware covered in cartoon snitches. “Everything I touch turns to baby things!” Proving his point, his juice cup, transformed into a baby bottle in his hand. “See?”
Guilty eyes peered up. “I thought perhaps you should get used to those things.”
“What do you...oh!” Draco eyes sparkled in understanding as he spied the picture Hermione held out to him; the first of their baby.

Title: Darkness and Lies
Rating: K/PG
Warnings: none
She pushes the door to the Owlery open, and stumbles upon Malfoy.
“Granger.”, a whiff of spearmint hits her nose.
Gathering herself she asks, “Why are you here so early?”
“Not your business.”, he eyes her suspiciously.
She steps closer and he flinches, she eyes the letter clutched in his white-knuckled hands.
“Peruvian Darkness Powder?”
He jerks his hand away and sneers, “Playing a prank Granger. Go away.”
Is Malfoy lying?
She eyes him curiously while he attaches his letter. He seems too exhausted to fight, to banter and act the bitter prat.
Maybe Harry really is on to something.

Title: Busted!
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: A/U 7th year
He'd gone too far, the rodent!
Itching powder on her sheets, self-emptying inkpots, and cantrips that had turned her hair green and made it writhe like Medusa’s snakes had been juvenile, but as far as pranking went, she’d had worse from the Weasley twins.
This though...this was crossing a line!
“Give back my knickers, you dirty scoundrel!” she shouted, slamming open the Head Boy’s door, furious.
She stopped short at the sight that greeted her:
Draco was naked, wearing only her panties...and he looked good in them.
“Well,” she said, after a long, awkward pause, “they’re all yours, Calvin Klein.”
