The Golden Trio have returned for their eighth year at Hogwarts in order to make up for the seventh year lost to the war. Old grudges are being reassessed, friendships are becoming tighter than ever. Harry is looking forward to this year, hoping that it will be different from the rest and free of danger. All he wants is a normal year at school. The war has thrown everything off track for Draco. New feelings have arisen within him, feelings he has kept locked away deep inside for years, feelings he'd hoped would go away and has only just begun to let in. His life has been destroyed by the events of the past few years of his life. What will he do in this final year? He never planned to survive the war, or to return to Hogwarts ever again. He is conflicted, torn between following the wishes of the parents who've all but abandoned him, or making his own path and doing as he wants for the first time in his life. Various headcanons will be integrated into this, you have been warned! Credit to JK Rowling. I do not own Harry Potter.
