THE ORIGINAL STORY WAS MADE BY Twin_Flame_Blues AND IS ON THE AO3 WEBSITE. I loved this work of art on ao3 and brought it to wattpad for those that want to read it but like the wattpad format for reading better then the ao3 format. AUTHORS NOTE (COPY & PASTED FROM AO3) 1. This world has wizards, it doesn't need heteronormativity. Everyone is a little bit queer here. 2. We stan a Slytherin redemption story arc and a deeper investigation of the type of friends Harry and Ron really were to Hermione. 3. Yes, both my username and all the chapter titles in this fic are pulled from Taylor Swift songs. 4. There will be short flashbacks to Hogwarts days in each chapter, but this fic primarily takes place 3+ years after the end of the war (and though there will be allusions to sex in the flashbacks, the only explicit sex scenes will take place when the characters are all over 18). 5. We will eventually get to alternating POV's in each chapter, but we've got to do some setup first.

It is the start of their Seventh Year, the Dark Lord is dead, and the only commotion the Golden Trio expects is to have boring, mundane lives from here on out. The Ministry of Magic has other plans. Enter Marriage Law and Dramione.
