After the war, Draco finds the time to sit back and think things over. For the first time in his life, he realised that maybe his father isn't the idol he once thought he was. He needed an escape, and he finally found it. He spent hours of his day staring into the Mirror of Erised, contemplating what could have been, but the odd mirror was then taken from him by an unlikely saviour. But even without the device, he often finds himself zoning out and thinking of what he saw, of WHO he saw, of what their past could've been and what their future may hold...
Suffering from survivors guilt and PTSD, the boy feels like no-one could understand him. Who would have any sympathy for a death eater, afterall?
None other than Harry James Potter, that's who. But is it really so unexpected afterall?

Aftermath • Drarry
The war is over. Everyone is back to life as it used to be, but not everyone. Draco Malfoy cannot handle the guilt he feels any longer. A voice tells him every single night that he is a traitor, that be does not deserve any kind of love after what he did. He lives like a zombie, until his beloved mother cannot handle it any longer and sends him to a clinic to get the help he so desperately needs. But recovery is not the only thing he finds in the clinic. Harry Potter might be the real hero who saved everyone from Lord Voldemort, but he certainly does not feel that way. He cannot sleep but when he does the nightmares hunt him. The pain he feels and the fears he has almost kill the boy who lived. Until one day his girlfriend cannot handle it any longer and sends him to a clinic to get the help he so desperately needs. But recovery is not the only thing he finds in the clinic. *** I feel like I should give some warnings. This book contains a few things that I should probably warn you for (in the first chapter you can find more warnings) : - It is obviously a boyxboy story so if you do not feel comfortable reading a story with a homosexual theme please do not read the story. - It will contain mental illnesses and I do not want you to read another word of this book if you know your sensitive for this kind of things. Your mental health is way too important to take any risks! - And last of all, the story will probably contain a lot of grammar mistakes. You see, English is not my first language and this is actually my first English written story so please do not hate me if I make any mistakes. I want to emphasize that I do not support the fact that some people are romanticizing mental ilnesses out there. This story does contain mental health issues but it is about showing you that you will always be able to find love and support, no matter what. 2nd place - TheCosmicAwards 2019/2020Complete

Praying For Change
It was scary, in Draco's opinion, how quickly things could change. One moment he's in his room, praying to whatever higher power to be left alone for once, the next, he's sitting in Uncle Severus' dinning room, having dinner across from his childhood enemy. To Harry, change is a dream come true. All his life he's prayed for change. But when he gets it, it's not exactly what he had in mind. × NOT a Drarry fic, Draco and Harry are going to be foster brothers and will eventually develop a brotherly bond.

A Beautiful Beginning
Ron looks okay, but Draco looks better. It's after the battle of Hogwarts and Harry Potter keeps looking for a certain, and I quote, "...pale, white-blonde, beautamous ferret." After a incident at the astronomy tower, he might just be able to find a special someone who falls into that category ;) and what blooms from it is even more beautiful. ~*Co-owned story with ClarissaFairchild118 ( go follow her please, she's amazingly awesome ) We came up with the story line by screaming ideas through texts at each other. We will alternate who writes the chapters. All of the characters belong to J.K Rowling except the second-gen characters that appear at the end. Also, the cover is not mine but we both love the art so much 🙂*~ Might, probably, definitely includes: *possible eating disorders (not very tho) *depressed Draco *suicide attempt(s) * cussing * gayyyyyyyyy ✨PLEASE READ ✨ (July 28, 2021) I literally can't thank all of you enough for all the support this book has gotten. It's crazy to me that this started out as an idea Clarissa and I bounced back and forth through text in January/ February of 2020, and now look at how far it's come. And even if it's not the most consistent or popular book out there, it was still my first, so from the bottomless pit of my soul, thank you.Complete
