So... They're not allowed to let mortals know that they're angels, and the punishment is that he's born to mortals as an angel? Somehow I don't think this mission is going to succeed for very long.
Also, this exchange from the second chapter has to qualify for "worst-written dialogue ever":
“Did it hurt?” Malfoy looked at her in confusion. “Did what hurt?” Hermione just let a knowing smirk linger about her lips. “Did it hurt when you fell from Heaven?” Malfoy’s face grew pale. [...] “Granger!” Hermione turned around, an innocent look on her face.
It's pretty bad to begin with, but pairing a person doing an action with something the OTHER person is saying is an easy way to confuse the hell out of your reader. Especially the first two lines.
I had to read that a few times to understand who was saying what. It doesn't help that that dialogue is totally cheesy and OOC for both of them (making it even harder to figure out who's talking).
Draco lives in a dormitory with several other boys. He also plays Quidditch with several people, which necessitates frequent changing of clothes. Wouldn't SOMEBODY have noticed that he has big honking wings hanging off his back?!?
Puts me in mind of my friend's angel char, who pretty much has to rip off his wings and stick huge bandages over the bloody stumps to keep them from growing back. Maybe that's why Draco's always so bitchy.

"It did hurt, as a matter of fact. Huge clunk when I hit the ground."
