I might call this canon-ish, but really it's just AU. It pretty much disregards the major plot points involving Draco in the sixth and seventh books, though not the story entirely. It's a fluffy Hogwarts romance, though, so we shall call it artistic license.
Since 2008 (and yeah — I did need all four of those years) I haven't changed this story much, but I have tidied it up. That being said, if you catch any typos, grammar errors, etc please let me know!
