100 Fic Recs | #2 - Draco & Hermione (Harry Potter) in "The Wrong Man" by snegurochka_lee
Title: The Wrong Man
Author: snegurochka_lee
Fandom: Harry Potter
Characters: Draco/Hermione, background Ron/Hermione
Rating: NC-17
Status: One-shot.
Summary: A man who looked very much like Draco Malfoy walked into Hermione's office, brandishing a piece of parchment and a pitch-perfect insult. That would have been right before she grabbed him by the front of his robes and dragged him inside, silently thanking her husband, the inventors of Polyjuice potion, and anyone else who might have had a hand in making her secret fantasy come to life for Valentine's Day. That also would have been one hour and fifteen minutes ago."
Warnings: Infidelity. Possible consent issues, re:not knowing that the person is not Polyjuiced (see prompt), although both parties very much want and enjoy all activities. Probably EWE.
I have such a weakness for infidelity fics and this one pulls it off so tastefully. Hermione and Draco are both so in character, and the situation is actually really believable. I really appreciate that there isn't any character bashing, but rather a very open-minded look at how relationships rise and fall, and how people can sometimes get caught up in the moment. Not to mention, it's hot.
