[COMPLETED] The Battle changed everyone, there was no doubt in that. Hermione was still returning to Hogwarts despite this, in the hope she would be able to get her NEWTs and move on. Nightmares haunt her, and it will be difficult to forget all that has happened. Draco was a Death Eater, despised and feared. Now he has to contend with the hate he helped breed, and make it to the end of his exams before he can escape it. But all he did has taken it's toll, and he's not the only one dealing with the awful memories. They say misery loves company, but maybe broken people can learn to fix each other... WARNING: Themes of self-harm, panic attacks and suicide feature prominently in this story. Trigger warnings are put at the start of chapters for self-harm, suicide and death, but many chapters feature panic attacks or references to panic attacks. If any of these things upset or trigger you, I recommend you avoid these signposted chapters or the book as a whole.
