This was very well written! Lovely, poetic, as others have said. I would have liked a little insight into WHY Hermione felt she couldn't be with Draco, why she ended up marrying someone else. Great job!

Thanks for the suggestion.

I guess it would've helped to give more insight into their relationship... but I liked that it was rather mysterious.

I will consider everyone's suggestions in the future.

Thank you.

I'm pretty sure it isn't Hermione keeping them apart. Is it?

I can see her delivering an ultimatum, and then not being able to go through with it.

Beautifully done, with plenty of luscious description!

I love your insight into their relationship.

And, in my mind, it was Hermione that was keeping them apart.

Very keen eye!

And thank you for the 'luscious description' compliment. It was very flattering.

Hmm...
I like this because it is so well-written but as previous posters mentioned, why can't she leave Ron [is she is married to him] and go with Draco? I almost feel that choosing that option would be harder on her Gryffindor tendencies. =]

Thanks for reviewing.

I purposely didn't address who she was marrying, just that she was.

Because of Draco's POV, I found that it almost fit better to be less forthcoming with details of their relationship (i.e. when and how it started, why they aren't together out in the open, etc.)

I guess that's just my own personal preferences coming through.

Thanks for the suggestions though, I will keep them in mind.

Aw, thanks for the shout-out! I thought it was great when I beta'd it, and I think it's great now!

Sort of melancholy... but great nonetheless.

Oooh I liked this! I actually liked that she stayed with Ron..it makes her relationship with Draco that much more dangerous and appealing. Very well written! :o)

Thanks for the review, and I'm glad you liked her with someone else too.

I always found it sort of appealing myself. :)
