It's been about four years since the war against Voldemort ended during Harry's seventh year at Hogwarts. Now as the fourth year comes to a decline he has nothing left to do and what's worse he is on the run from the ministry and the people he once called friends.
His worst regret yet is having married Ginevra Weasley, now Potter. As much as he loves his children, he can't bring himself to stop thinking of the past and what could've been. More specifically what he could have had with a certain Hufflepuff.
What will he do if he's given a second chance by death to start his fourth year all over again with his memories of the previous timeline?
Can the cruel fate that befell Cedric be defeated and reforged? To reap what has been sown Harry is willing to sacrifice everything.
The sequel is out, with the name "When the time comes"

Lillian 'Anna' Potter || Order of the Phoenix
"SOMETIMES, IT'S EASIER TO FORGIVE THAN IT IS TO FORGET." It was revealed by J.K Rowling that when Lily Potter originally died, she was with child. What if Lily had her second child before Voldemort showed up at their house in Little Whinging? How would her child adjust to her new life as the Boy Who Lived's little sister? Every new year at Hogwarts seems to only challenge Anna's ability to withstand tragedy. Voldemort is back in the flesh, and her fate has been painfully sealed in stone. There's no more 'maybe's' or 'ifs', but plain simple fact, laid out for her in black and white. Anna has to die by her own brother's hand. The only question is how many people she'll allow to die before she does. The coming year is sure to be full of old things: grief, loss, pain. She's done hoping for anything different. But her fear of disappointment and pent up frustration is something new, and if she doesn't quickly find a healthier way to deal with her emotions, she will single-handedly destroy every good thing in her life until she has nothing left at all. DISCLAIMER: HARRY POTTER IS NOT MINE!Complete

Eventually he couldn't take it and started cutting, taking drugs, getting mindlessly drunk and street fighting illegally with his muggle friends. (They obviously don't know about magic but do know about his home life). This is set from the summer before fifth year onwards. Let's see if his friends can save him before he's too far gone.Complete
Too Shy To Tell You (Cedric Diggory x Reader)
(Y/N) Middlebrook was terribly excited for her fourth year at Hogwarts, but at the same time, she was extremely anxious. This was the year she wanted to tell her crush that she was hopelessly in love with him. But how? Cedric Diggory. He was practically unattainable. Not to mention the unspoken rule about Hufflepuffs and Slytherins, forbidding contact between the two houses. Not that it mattered. She and Cedric had been best friends since their very first day. Secretly, of course. But now she had to figure out how to tell Cedric that she loved him. Note: I do not own any of the Harry Potter characters or events that are identical to the books or movies. Harry Potter belongs to the amazing J.K. Rowling, so I cannot take credit for her work. She is truly magnificent. Note 2: This story takes place while Harry is in his 1st year at Hogwarts. (Y/N) and Cedric are going into their 4th year. This is 3 years before the Triwizard Tournament Note 3: This book has been republished from my previous account @Slytherin2224 // This is my new account, as I have forgotten the passcode to my previous page // Please read this note before assuming I have copied Beth's work...

after potter's death - cedric diggory
People are talking about what seems to be the only thing people talk about these days. The tragic death of Harry Potter, last year at the end of the Triwizard Tournament. In this book we follow the Slytherin student Sarah and her secret relationship with a certain Cedric Diggory, who also happens to be her best friend's brother. And Cedric Diggory? He's just not anybody. He's the boy who lived instead of the boy who was actually the boy who lived and should've been the one to live this time too. How will things end for them? Can they really stay a secret? And how on earth are they going to defeat Voldemort, especially now that Harry Potter is gone? This is just a fanfiction and J.K Rowling owns the original story.Complete

Their best friend, Hermione Granger. And worst of all, Dumbledore himself, who never died but hid in the shadows, pulling every string. Harry and Ron are more than friends-they are blood brothers. And the cruelest twist of all? They were used to help murder their own parents. When Draco and Blaise try to save them and fail, Death and Fate intervene. Given one last chance, the four are thrown back in time, tasked with stopping Dumbledore and Hermione before the world is lost to war forever. Will they succeed in rewriting destiny-or let the Wizarding World burn again? if you want to know read the book. I do not own Harry Potter or any of its characters-the rights belong to J.K. Rowling.

It will be in the third person but follows the reader's pov, if you know what I mean. Don't correct anything or state your dislike please, it's fanfiction and not that deep, if you don't like it, then simply stop reading it and move on. Also, if you are here for a specific character, you'll most likely see them in future parts of the series, so I'll put the following list in every description, and of course at the end of each I'll give the next books name so you can find it.

ROYALTY (Editing on Hold!!)
Editing update: This story is on hold for editing for an undefined time period. ❝Loving your enemy is not easy. Some accept it, while some are hellbent on destroying.❞ Students returned back to Hogwarts to complete their final year after the War saw the defeat of Voldemort and his supporters, almost completely eliminating the practise of dark arts in the wizarding world. They just wanted a simple, stress-free year where they could focus on their graduation. What they didn't want was an underlying conspiracy that threatened to uproot everything that they fought for. Oh, and also a marriage law that could possibly bring lovers together or well, let's hope that the situation doesn't get as bad as some of them having their wands at each other's throats. __________ "Hermione Granger." The goblet glowed in green colour until a piece of parchment flew out of it. Mcgonagall read it and called out the name which was the last thing I remembered because I passed out the very moment the name was announced. Dramatic? I know. But you can't blame me when I was supposed to be married to my once arch enemy. "Draco Malfoy." _________ (Read at your own risk. May contain clichés. You have been warned.) Note: This book is being edited regularly, the chapters are marked (edited) for the same. While the story plot remains the same as my imagination at age 13, the edits will take place on making it flow smoothly. Some chapters are marked (heavily edited) so previous readers are advised to read it again. Thank you.Complete
