The Harry Potter fandom has identified several different non-canonical relationships that are considered beloved, but the Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton) and Hermione Granger (Emma Watson) relationship is one of the most popular with plenty of Dramione fanfic. In J.K. Rowling’s book series, Hermione and Ron Weasley end up together after seven novels full of will-they-or-won’t-they moments. However, many have interpreted Draco’s constant bullying of the Muggle-born witch throughout the series as a cover for an unrequited crush. This interesting chemistry has helped fuel the variety of Dramione fanfics.

Apple Pies and Other Amends by ToEatAPeach is a Draco and Hermione fan fic that takes place post-Hogwarts. The characters here feature a powerful Hermione and a redeemed Draco. This particular AO3 story is rated mature, so there are some adult situations involved. Part of this has to do with the idea that it deals with PTSD, angst, and things of that nature.

On the Nature of Daylight by ikorous shows Hermione Granger at a point in her life where she wants to lose control, and Draco Malfoy is ready to take control. This is a romance between the two characters, but it is one that has Draco as a very possessive and jealous man, and someone who can at times be grating. However, that fits his personality well, so the author understood that part of the dynamic. This also takes place while they are in school (Draco is 16), so it is a little risqué as well.
However, it was another hugely popular AO3 story, with over 884,000 hits and over 10,000 kudos.

Scone Strategies by mightbewriting is one of the more lighthearted Dramione AO3 fanfics, and this is what makes it such a joy to read. Like most Harry Potter fanfiction, there are a lot of Malfoy and Hermione stories that are dark, serious, and manage to be almost as long as J.K. Rowling’s novels (and, in some cases, even longer).

The premise is relatively straightforward, as it seimply features Hermione and Draco awkwardly flirting while Hermione makes scones.

What makes Bells On A Hill by AO3 author HeyJude19 such a good piece of Dramione fanfiction is that it takes inspiration from a movie that’s completely unrelated to Harry Potter — 1998’s The Wedding Singer. This makes for a surprisingly solid romance story about Draco and Hermione that’s full of funny moments and has an incredibly tangible, believable plot. Set a few years after the Wizarding War, when Draco and Harry, Ron, and Hermione have managed to bury the hatchet and maintain a friendship, Draco’s engagement is cut short a month before the wedding.
To cope with his heartbreak, he decides to assist Hermione in planning her own wedding to Ron. However, during the process, he inadvertantly ends up falling in love with her, and by the end of the story it’s clear that the feelings are reciprocated. It’s a fun, light-hearted story that manages to pack in a few emotional moments too, and is definitely recommended for Dramione fans who care about the romance more than further exploration of the Wizarding World/
