Millicent was really easy AND difficult to write because I could really identify with the character here, but I'm so glad I wrote her. Draco, IMO, can be like I showed him here - we only see him from Harry's POV and I think that there is a real, insecure person in there somewhere. Maybe only one or two of his housemates get to see it, but he's in there. I wanted to make him more human than how he's been in a lot of fics, so I'm glad that came across here.
As I said to Black Dog - I did'nt want to go with the obviously romantic ending, as that would have just been a bit too much, I think. 'Hopeful' is better because, whether or not things turn romantic, you know they have a start to a real,, authentic friendship, something they both really needed.
Thank you for reading and letting me know what you thought! :D
