Falling Through the Cracks | Eighth Year
In their eighth year at Hogwarts, Draco Malfoy is quietly unraveling. Plagued by crippling depression and anxiety, he battles the weight of his past-his family's betrayal, his role in the war, and the shadows that never seem to fade. Harry Potter, on the other hand, is haunted by the lingering effects of his PTSD, the scars of war still fresh in his mind. Together, they're two broken souls, struggling to function in a world that's moved on without them. When their paths cross once more, a fragile understanding forms between them, each sensing the other's pain. As they grow closer, they find that they might be the only ones who truly understand what the other is going through. Through quiet nights of vulnerability and shared silence, they begin the slow, painful process of healing, learning that sometimes, being broken doesn't mean you can't fix each other. But the road to recovery is never easy, and the shadows of their pasts threaten to tear them apart. Can love be the thing that saves them both? Or will they fall apart before they can ever truly come together?Complete

never let me go
Harry and friends are returning to Hogwarts for an 8th year to complete their studies, but the last person he expected to return was Draco Malfoy. Can he put their old rivalry behind them and start anew? Draco has been dealing with his own struggles since the war, and finds himself in a very dark place when Harry Potter, of all people, comes back into his life. Can he offer what Draco desperately needs - a friend, or maybe more? This is the story of two boys working through old bitterness, sexuality, mental health, and new foes amidst the end of the war and their return to Hogwarts. Author's Note: This is a slow burn, enemies to lovers, with a lot of angst but a decent amount of fluff too, more of a plot than just the romance and a happy ending (trust me). Relationships are Harry x Draco, Ron x Hermione, and Pansy x Blaise. Updates will be regular because it's all already written out, and I will be publishing on AO3 at the same under the same name. There is also a playlist associated with the fic and a song for each chapter, so please check that out as well (link will be at the start of the first chapter). This is my first fanfic so all support is appreciated!Complete

Tangled Threads
The war is over, but the scars still linger. Hogwarts reopens its doors for a final, unofficial "eighth year", a chance for students to rebuild, relearn, and heal. Hermione Granger never expected peace to feel so heavy. Between long nights, thick books, and memories that refuse to fade, she carries the weight of a war that changed her. But nothing unsettles her quite like the presence of Draco Malfoy , quieter than she remembers, eyes darker, posture heavier. When a potion partnership forces them into uncomfortable closeness, the tension begins to simmer, awkward brushes of fingers, half-said apologies, and moments that feel like maybe, just maybe, people can change. But old wounds don't vanish overnight. Prejudices linger in hallways. And fate, as always, has a twisted sense of timing. But sometimes, answers come only when you least expect them.Complete
