The Harry Potter cast who started of as children in the film used to spend a lot of time on the sets together. On the screen, where Hermoine couldn’t endure with Draco, meanwhile off-screen, she was falling for Tom. During an interview with the Seventeen magazine, Emma Watson confessed, “For the first two movies, I had a huge crush on Tom Felton (who played Slytherin protégé Draco Malfoy). He was my first crush.”

“We started tutoring on sets and we were on sets all the time, so I think everyone had crushes on everyone else at some point. There was always Valentine’s Day – everyone would write secret Valentine’s cards to different people. I think on the second [film] there was like love notes and love letters flying around,” Neville added.
Imagine the turn of events if Hermoine and Draco would have been together on screen. Would you have shipped the muggle-wizard couple?
