AN: I do not own anything except the plot. I'm not usually a Dramione shipper, but I like happy fix it stories and decided to write one with an unusual (for me) pairing. Also, do not expect regular updates on my stories. I'm sorry, but I write for fun and only when I feel like it.
Prologue
Draco Malfoy could not believe it when he woke up in his room at Malfoy Manor and saw his eleven year old self in the mirror once again. He remembered going to sleep as a bitter, regretful nineteen year old, dreading the nightmares. He remembered thinking bitterly if only… but he had never truly had a chance. He had been raised spoiled and ignorant, fervently believing his father to be right and mudbloods to be scum of the earth. He had been threatened into joining the Death Eaters and letting them into Hogwarts, otherwise they would have killed his mother. He had grown up and realized too late that mudbloods were no different from purebloods, that he was on the wrong side, that he was wrong… that he loved her.
He had always watched her, frustrated by her. She constantly proved his old beliefs wrong by being the smartest, most powerful, bravest, strongest, and kindest witch he had ever seen. This had vexed him, angered him and confused him, so he had lashed out and insulted her to remind her and himself of what she was supposed to be: a mudblood, beneath him. Yet, deep down he always knew that she was far above him, the light in his life that he could never reach. He had three terrible moments that stuck with him and always featured in his nightmares. One was watching his aunt torture her, hearing her screams and being unable to protect her, lest they both be killed. The second was watching her kiss Weasley, wishing it was him instead and knowing it would never come to pass. And the third was the memory of the dark mark on his arm and hearing her voice telling him he could never be with her, he was a coward, he was unworthy, undeserving. He wished he could change all of that. He wished the dark mark was never on his arm, he wished he had never called her a mudblood, he wished he had never been her enemy, he wished he could protect her, tell her he loved her, and stay with her forever.
It seems magic had granted him his wish and his chance.
