Draco Malfoy

From the moment Draco opens his eyes and saw the face of her grandmother looking at her so lovingly, he knew the spell succeeded. He could still remember that night clearly in his mind and everything that happened in his past life. 

From then on he waited at every opportunity he can get to gather information. The first of his priorities is to find out if Hermione made it as well. It wasn't until when he was three he heard Mathilda Greengrass one of her new mother's friends gossip about Hector Dagworth-Granger.

"Did you know, his wife has born him a daughter?" 

"Did she now?" Her mother raised her delicate eyebrow. 

"Yes! I saw the little girl when I was in France. The girl looks like a mix of her parents"

"Well that's good to hear" 

"Yes! and I think the girl is the same age as your youngest" 

When Draco heard it. He felt relief as he knew that little girl would be Hermione. The only problem is she was in France.

From then on Draco didn't give up. Every time their family would go to their vacation house in France. Draco wouldn't fail to accompany his mother on a trip hoping there would be a chance to see Hermione. 

Every time they would have their Annual Yule Ball at the Manor, Draco always looks for Hermione. If there was even a bit of a chance that her new family would be attending, Draco would take it even if he knew there's a chance that he will encounter the future Death Eaters like his Aunt Bellatrix or Rodolphus Lestrange. He knew they haven't done anything yet and they were basically still a child, Draco couldn't help but remember all the horrible things they did.

Even his father Lucius, at first Draco, tries to distance himself from Lucius he still remembers his coward of a father letting him be initiated to the Death Eaters at 16 years, letting him go on the impossible mission of killing Dumbledore. So every time Lucius would invite him to play he would always decline by shaking his head or walking out. It wasn't until Lucius had cried asking him why does he not want to play with him that Draco only realize there is a possibility that Lucius still might change. So he started playing with him, riding broomsticks with him, and even sharing a bed sometimes with his brother whenever he had nightmares. 

From then on they started to become close. It felt odd at first since Draco was an only child in his past life and he never had someone he can call his best friend. He had a close friend, Blaise but he was not as close to Blaise as he is with Lucius right now. So Draco hoped that he can lead his father/brother away from the Dark Lord.


They were having their usual dinner when Draco heard the best news he had since being born in this timeline. His father, Abraxas had said he had met the Dagworth-Granger family this afternoon and had invited them for dinner at the Manor. 

Abraxas also recounts what happened at Hogwarts. How he had seen a young girl brewing potion on the floor. Draco smiled as he remembers one of the stories Harry had told him about Hermione brewing a Polyjuice potion and how she had turned into a half-cat. His father also told them about the accidental magic that had happened but Draco is too thrilled to finally meet Hermione and talk to her about their plans.
