Welcome, Baddies, to Romance Wednesday, aka On Wednesdays We Wear Pink, where we dedicate an entire day to swooning over our favorite fictional heartthrobs. That’s right—every Wednesday, we unapologetically thirst over the book baes who have stolen our hearts, our minds, and possibly our sanity.

Now, let’s talk book baes. You know, those fictional characters who set our standards unrealistically high and make real-life dating feel like a tragic comedy. The ones who live rent-free in our minds, whose every smirk, brooding glance, or devastatingly clever line sends us into a spiral. And if you’re anything like me, you probably have a type—and my type, dear Baddies, is fanfiction Draco Malfoy.

Why Fanfiction Draco Malfoy Owns My Soul

Listen, canon Draco was cool and all—if you’re into entitled rich boys with terrible decision-making skills—but fanfiction Draco? Oh, he’s different. He’s a complex, morally grey, emotionally-wounded, undeniably hot disaster of a man, and I love him for it.

Fanfic Draco ranges from tortured war hero to suave, high-society flirt, to straight-up feral. And no matter the variation, he’s always got that perfect mix of snark, arrogance, and secretly being down bad for Hermione Granger. I mean, what more could a girl want?

The Science of a Book Bae

What exactly makes a book bae worthy of obsession? Here’s my totally scientific breakdown:

✔ Smirks in an infuriatingly attractive way

✔ Has emotional trauma but still gives elite banter

✔ Probably has impeccable hair, sharp cheekbones, and an affinity for black clothing

✔ Enemies-to-lovers champion

✔ Could ruin your life, but would probably also die for you

See? It’s not my fault. It’s just biology.

Who’s Your Book Bae?

Now, I know I’m not alone in this. So tell me, Baddies—who is your ultimate book bae? Are you a fellow Draco Malfoy enthusiast? Do you swoon for grumpy morally grey villains, cinnamon roll soft boys, or a spicy mix of both? Drop your bookish crushes in the comments and let’s scream about them together.

And remember: on Wednesdays, we wear pink—and we thirst. 💖
