To all my reviewers:
Holy crap. I'm so sorry, but i would understand if you track me down and kill me, but i am honestly SO SORRY. You don't have to forgive me, i'll understand. All what i can say is that i completely vanished this fanfiction world. I barely even go on the computer. I'm a senior and i need to focus so i could graduate. I don't want to promise anything to you guys, but i will try writing the future chapters. Probably a rough draft first then i'll post it here if i'm satisfied. I'm so sorry. I feel so bad....i even cried when i was reading your reviews! Sheesh...i'm such a bad person!

UPDATE: (November 05, 2006)
I have no idea when i would be able to write the rest of my chapters. But i got an idea. If you're a writer, who enjoys writing stories, fanfics, etc., please e-mail me. The point? Well, if you like my story "Love from the Former Enemy", would you like to continue writing the story for me? Of course there will be some...rules and conditions if you want to participate with this activity. If you're interested, e-mail me with your written stories, finished or not. Yes, experience is a BIG must. Thank you.
WOHOOO...you updated!! *doing a chicken dance*..ahahah...oh my goodness...that has got to be one of the most Draco/Hermione moments!!! I loved how they just kept on talking and talking and talking and...well you know what i mean! Lol...but what i wanted to see was Danielle and Harry and Ron...i want to know what's happening to them...anyway get Pansy out of the way! Lol..she's a slut...well update asap!
Draco's actions was pretty unexpected..but all in all..i love it=D
Oh very interesting! I love it...and Danielle's last name just reminded me of this soap opera show called 'Passions'...lol..anyway out of topic. Please Update ASAP!
I like it! Don't care if Harry could apparate, didn't bother to wonder how, but why didn't the others just apparted? It could've been better!! Lol.,..hope no one's sriously injured...
Well, it's a great start. Though a few spelling errors would do better of it. Mad cliff still..please update ASAP!
It's sounds interesting...but very complicated. Good prologue, though=). Just Update ASAP!
Author's Response: You're right on the complicated thing. There are four people involved in this love triangle, (or is it a square? I don't know) and of those four people, there are four relationships and another hinting slash relationship. But you will start to get the whole Draco and Hermione thing going A.S.A.P. in chapter one...just wait and see.
I really like it...though confused. Hope you update asap!
I really like it...though confused. Hope you update asap!
Great chapter! But i wanted to know how they started to owl each other..even though Hermione doesn't know that's Draco Malfoy. Can't wait for more!
Author's Response: okay- you asked for it, so stay tuned! prof mary
HIii!!! Well, i mostly read D/HG fics and i never read a story like this before, but dang you got me hooked!!! Update soon! And thanks for checking out my story=D
Lol..OOC: Out Of Character
Author's Response: Lol...okay :)
Author's Response: Hey guys! It's me (well...duh!)! I just wat to say Happy New Year 2005 to you all!

Well it's an interesting plot that caughts alot of readers attention. But i think you should be more descriptive with the characters and story. Don't feel offensive by my review, but errm...i think some of your reasons are pretty...well i guess aren't that good. For example, why would Hogwarts be under a spell so no one would steal anything? I mean Dumbledore's there and isn't he the strongest wizard around Britain? And also Narcissa's 'Missing Ad'. Couldn't she just contacted Dumbledore instead of doing that? And you could've paid more attention to what Hermione and Draco's point of views. Please don't feel offensive! It's just an opinion...but i'd understand if your a starter because not every fanfic is 'supposedly' perfect, right? Maybe you should get an editor or something--well not that you need it i guess, it's just that it needs to be more discripted and creative. But keep up your good work. Loads of people loves it! Update soon=)
Author's Response: 1. Hogwarts is put under a spell because you know how schools are locked, so no one can vandelize (I don't know if I spelled 'vandelize' right) any of it. And in this case, Hogwarts is put under an I don't know... how should I put this... 'locking spell' so no one can steal any of the equimpment... you know... like liquids for potions and DADA objects. That is why Hogwarts is locked. Oh... and Dumbledore went home like everyone else. Sorry if you don't like that idea, but I just thought that the teachers and Dumbledore should have a summer break too... for at least a few weeks. Then they will start coming back and getting things ready at the end of July (Hermione and Draco will be out by then...they will only be stuck in for a week).
2. Narcissa didn't contact Dumbledore because Lucius told her not too. Right now it sounds like a stupid reason, but Lucius is...well...not 'mean'...strict. He's strict and takes things seriously. When he told Narcissa not to contact Dumbledore, she didn't. She didn't want to get in trouble. And if she was a rebel and did anyway, Lucius has many ways to find out. Like we can use caller ID to find out who called us. Lucius can...I don't know... invade her owl mail...follow her when she apparates...ect. Sorry if you don't like this reason either, but if I changed it, it would ruin chapter 6 and the whole plot of making Draco and 'Mione stay for a week in Hogwarts.
3. I'll try and pay attention to Hermione's point of view more for you. But, I only decided to make Hermione's thoughts and POV in my fanfic, not Draco's. But if it makes you and the other readers happy, I'll write in third person and add both POVs and not just Hermione's.
4. :( I would have gotten an editor from the beginning but the only problem is is that none of my family members read Harry Potter. None. I'm apart of a family who thinks 'Harry Potter is evil and all that crap' (as you can see, I'm not one bit like that). There is my English teacher, but she is so...you know... 'I don't really care about your life...focus on school...I don't have time to edit your childish story', and I don't even think she even reads Harry Potter. Then there are my friends. Most of my friends adore Harry Potter as much as I do, but they aren't into writing. I bet if I ask them, they won't even know what fanfiction is. They can help me with facts and such, but not spelling, puncuation, characterization and what not. So I have no one to turn to except me.
Yes, I know my writing is not perfect. Loads of people including my mom, teachers, and you guys think I have to work on description, so I'm trying my hardest to make it my best. And if it's not perfect or what you expected, I'll try harder on the next chapter. Thanks for your review. You gave me a lot of tips I can use for my writing (and so did other reviewers too). I'm glad you like it so far, and I plan to update...I don't know. Probably this weekend. Sorry for making you wait even longer, but I have a lot of editing to do. :)
Merci for the great constructive critism May,

PS. If you have any more comments to add, feel free to post something on here or contact me.
Author's Response: Wow. I think that is the longest response I'll ever post in my life. :)
Hey Arielle! Good chapter...i just didn't expect them to get together just like that. Draco's totally OOC...but OOC or not, i guess it was a good chappie=). I have a few advices for you though: Think about their character first...think about how they'd react at this sudden reaction. I mean they were enemies were they? BUT PLEASE do not feel disappointed because i can't blame you writing your first fanfic. You're not alone on this thing 'cause ihad some comments like this as well with my first fanfic and the more i wrote D/H stories, the more i learned about how to think first before i write them. Anyway, i hope you don't feel upset with your new checked-over chapters...you just had a few major spelling errors, that's all. Well, just to finish my review...great chapter and update=D!
Author's Response: Lol...you'll probably think I'm weird after I ask this question. What's OOC? Okay, I will put in their reaction. I just read your corrections and I should of added something that you put in there. Like, I really should of added it in. It's a big part later on in the story...but oh well. Everyone will figure it out sooner or later. When I write chapter 7, I'll make sure I wait this time till I post it for the public. Lol. Thanks for your help. Ttyl- TotallyClueless
Oh and yes, please do add Draco's POV...i think readers would want to know what he's thinking.
Author's Response: 3 for Draco's POV...
That was a long review you got there! Lol..well don't worry about it anymore, i mean like i said, all the fanfictions aren't all perfect like the original books. But anyway, i'm really enjoying this story, i like this chapter, actually. Sort of funny....but dang...Hermione SNOGGED MALFOY?! That was unexpected...so unlike her, but who couldn't blame her?! Hehehe...i would've done the same thing to him on that situation! Oh, if you're having troubles to find an editor, just ask me, if you still need it. But all in one, i like your story=)
Author's Response: May, you don't know how fast my heart was racing when I saw your name on my review page. I was thinking "Oh my gosh, what did I do wrong!!" LOL...okay...I'm exaggerating... But I really thought I did something wrong. LOL. Anyways...I'm very glad you like it May. Yeah...this was my favorite chapter out of all of them. Malfoy's really hot...I would of did the same thing too. Hmmm...you know what...that's a good idea. You can edit my story. Before I start writing chapter 6, I send it to you and you can edit it. But you have to promise not to tell anyone what will happen next. :) -TC
Oh girl how could you leave us hanging to know what'll happen? Is that thingi showed their future? Huh? Was it? Was it? Lol..sorry to annoy but i want to know what happened. Great story, by the way!!! UPDATE asap
Well, not bad for the first chapter. Good work though=). So don't stop there, update!

~The story is now Complete!~
Thanks for reading!
Very mysterious...i feel bad for Hermione though i'm completely shocked she hasn't informed anyone about her...situation. I have so many questions that need to be answered...Update!
Great start! I wonder how people will react about their relationship!Though, getting a beta-reader will make your story better. Well, there's a few spelling errors that need to be checked over, but all in all, it's a good plot! And if you were interested to have a beta-reader, just ask someone you know or me=D. Update!
