You are a very talented writer, and I'm really enjoying this story. I'm even enjoying the slow build-up. It makes sense with the way you've written Draco and Hermione. Keep updating quickly. I can't wait to see how the story progresses!

i love this story!! but i must admit after the last two chapters i'm wondering where it's going and if it is in fact going anywhere at all. maybe i'm just missing something. maybe this is a super slow developing story. i dont know but obviously i'm missing something....

SQUUUUUUUUEEEEEEEEEEEEE You've updated. :) Love that Draco's turned inwards to heal his hurts and that he wants to improve himself, finally he's looking at the future with open eyes. And what a sweet gesture to get all those mugs and glasses for Hermione. I don't think he even realises he's starting to warm towards her. :) And when he does - woo hoo!! And Hermione checking him out after Quidditch practice - YUM!!!!! And her comeback to his note - Zing!! Loved it.

Well I'm pleased you don't mind my mini-rambles and I'm glad you get something out of them too. :) I am also thrilled that you reply to my reviews the way you do. Thank you!!!

I have no worries that your story will go in the direction I'm hoping for as well as having surprise twists, turns and backpedalling along the way. As for my interpretations, it just goes to show how much I am loving this story not to mention how wonderfully you are doing writing it. :)

I love your explanation for Dean Thomas. I can totally see him as a social butterfly and being a handy friend to have even if he is a half blood and not the pureblooded company that Draco would have been expected to keep. I always got the impression he was easy going and well liked too. I wouldn't mind throwing down with Draco either but that's another story. (sigh - I need my mantra) I must not fall for a fictional character. I must not fall for a fictional character. LOL Nor be envious of one either. ;)

What I am jealous of, on two counts, is you!! One for the fact that you paint/are an artist and I can't paint to save myself and two that you have a hubby who's passing out such romantic gestures and I'm not all that romantic a girl myself. LOL

I can't wait for more. :)

Hope you keep up with the updates. I have to agree with SoftObsidian that the build up is just great. The massive change in Draco's life causing him to look at things different, very realistic. Hope to read more!

Ilke, I'm gonna be honest with you. I haven't been reading this story for a reason. It's really really too close to my ideal build up for a Draco/Hermione story, and I feel inadequate when I read it. THIS is real Draco/Hermione at it's finest. The only other story I think that it compares to in terms of realism is Contrast. I'm so so impressed with it that it's really distracting to read while I'm trying to write my own D/Hr stuff. This is the kind of story telling that makes me want to stop writing. lol. NO SHIT! The sleep kiss was too fucking hot to describe..and yeah, I'm gonna the borrow the sleeping/napping kiss from you to use in my story, of course not in the same way. I'm putting this on my Recommended Reading list and on my LJ. And I promise to be a better reviewer from now on....I need to push away my D/Hr inferiority complex and just suck it up. lol. OK, going over to GE to give you some love there too : )
