A/N- This is the longest chapter I've written I have Zero idea why or how. But I hope you enjoy. I do ignore the epilogue so people take different routes then in what is technically canon.

After the war had finished, she had inheritated the Prince family Vaults as well as her fathers and the home she grew up in. And she decided to move back to her home, when she saw the state of wreckage she simply fixed the stdy and slept on the couch that was there for now not wanting to face her childhood room being ruined. After she got home she found that with some luck the A levels course she'd applied to the year before allowed her to try the exams for the first year with as shed got their in time and had paid ahead to do the course and she threw herself head first into the studying for the few weeks she had before the exams and doing some of the assignments theyd told her were needed for the grades as well. as june hit her exams started and she went to each one mostly confident in her ability to get them done well enough for her next year to begin.

After her exams she focused on fixing up her home, cleaning what she could fixing basic things she could by hand and finally went and found her room in perfect shape, feeling a magic barrier fall as she walked in and seeing a letter sitting on her bed with her name written on it from her father and she froze not being able to pass take a step closer for a while stepping away from the bed and to her books checking them to find it all in perfect order she finally moved back to her bed picking up the letter but couldn't bring herself to open it and placed it in the draw by her bed.  

Her seventeenth birthday hit and she used this as a chance to use magic and fix the parts of the house that were a bit too broken for her to fix by hand herself otherwise she ignored the date getting her home back in its pristine, tidy and homey way it was as she was growing up. once the house was in as good a condition as she could make it she pulled the books from the shelves that she would need for her final year at Hogwart's. Reading and focusing on the subjects shed need to become a healer after she had finished, she didn't contact others and most were busy with their own grief to contact her themselves, and that suited her just fine, all she had was a short letter from Harry in attempt to keep in touch that told her that he and a few others were helping Professor McGonagall fix up the damages at the school and that little Teddy was doing well and currently living with his grandmother. She was happy to hear and sent a short worded letter in return but that was all that was really in their conversation.

When she finally got her grades back from the exams she'd taken and felt relief flood through her and she promptly started by sending message to question whether she could complete assignments and such away from the actual building if she turned up in person for exams because of an inability to actually be at all of the lessons in normal time tabled set up and finally messaged discussing the set up with Professor McGonagall and agreed that she would be able to travel during the school year as long as the exams weren't at the same time as any of her NEWTs exams and relaxed as the year was sorted and found out the books recommended for the next year of Alevels were and bought them with the money from the prince vault as well as putting the money forward for the next year of education to solidify the course and relaxed slightly now that was sorted and went to drop into her bed in exhaustion finally relaxed better then she had for the first time in weeks.

As she woke she pushed herself stretching and looked towards her draw and finally pulled the letter from the draw and read it, it was short and to the point as it was written apologising for what was going and explaining that he hadnt wanted things to go this way but war was war and he did what he had to, and that he was again sorry for leaving her the way he had, but hed made hed left her what he could to make sure she was able to as she wanted in best comfort he would have been able to afford. As she finished the letter she finally realised the tears falling down her cheeks and she moved her hand to wipe it away lightly and put the letter down standing making a decision process as she placed the letter carefully beside her bed. Dressing in formal clothes as she flooed her way first to see McGonagall to discuss it for the school terms and she seemed happy of not a tad bit worried about the decision but agreed it was right and went with her as she legally got her name changed to include her fathers as well, the Goblins at the bank took the change better the the ministry seemed to, probably at the pride that they were the first to know outside of her family.  She now got to have her name with pride especially while she heard that Harry was in the process of clearing her fathers name in the best way he could and standing at the trials of some of the known death eaters, defending some, well Draco, and against most, Including Lucius. And she was able to stand easier with her head high as an Evans and a Snape.
