What if Harry wasn't the golden boy everyone thought? What if his world of Hogwarts changes forever? Harry Potter was excited for school to start for his fifth year. He wanted nothing more than to get away from his abusive aunt, uncle, and cousin and get to see his friends and finally return home. But it's not the home he once thought. Professor Umbridge arrives to the school and resorts everyone, and Harry...gets placed into Slytherin. With the whole school now bullying him, his constant reoccurring nightmares getting worse, Harry no longer sees the point in living. He loses all his faith. But can a pale, blonde haired boy change the way Harry sees himself? And can Draco pull him out of the ground before he gets buried? This story will only follow a few things from the original book/movie. Umbridge is there, Harry still gets a lot of detentions from her, and his nightmares continue. Sirius will not die at the end of this and Harry and the rest of the gang don't end up going to the ministry. Sorry if that's a buzz kill, but I wanted to focus more on drarry and how Draco helps Harry over come his personal demons. Warning!!!! This story contains Self harm Anorexia Abuse Bullying

When Harry returns to Hogwarts after the battle, everything has changed. Houses have been abolished and relationships have ended. Mandatory therapy is required alongside their normal classes. Everyone has changed... including Draco Malfoy. Once arrogant and haughty, he's now a shell of his former self. If anyone can get through to him it's Harry, who feels more alone than ever. But does he want to? I DO NOT OWN HARRY POTTER OR ANY CHARACTERS IN THIS STORY.
