Wow! This is great! I can't tell you how tickled I am that my wish has been granted! I love the idea of these two together, so completely opposite, and I love how you made it work so beautifully. I also love love love that they each have a secret side to themselves that they've only ever shown to each other. That first time under the stands was smokin' hot and the ending was *sigh* so lovely. Thank you so much! I'm doing a happy dance!!

Oh I especially loved the ending. He was proud of her. Always liked her. That was perfect somehow.

'Blonde and languid and haughty' - what a fantastic set of words for the Malfoys. Brilliant fic!

Whoa! I was so skeptical when I read this pairing, and yet it works SO WELL. No, they probably couldn't ever make it work for real, but as teenagers and in secret? That's such a crap shoot. Molly's regret is just palpable, and her perspective on him over their years apart, that in his amorality, he wouldn't ever really care? Love it. And that ending! So cathartic!

Well done!

Oh I really liked the end: She was a mother who grieved, but she was also a warrior who prevailed, and at last, she could embrace them both.

Thanks for sharing!

I never really thought that this pairing could work, but you did a really good job. The ending was beautiful.

What a great little fic! I love the way you describe Lucius; that description of him smirking and raising an eyebrow is deliciously hot. And that ending, where he said he was proud of her - I loved it. Great work!
