As Hermione Granger returns for her seventh year, the familiar stone walls echo with silence, haunted by the ghosts of friends forever gone.

Nox - Dramione by royalhausblack

Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger return to Hogwarts for their 8th year, appointed as Head Boy and Head Girl-a decision that forces them into an awkward arrangement of sharing a common room. While the wizarding world seeks to rebuild after the war, tensions remain high between those on opposing sides. For Draco and Hermione, their shared living quarters ignite a fiery clash of personalities. Hermione views Draco with contempt for his past, while Draco carries his own burdens and guilt, masked by his signature sarcasm and cold demeanor. But amidst the late-night study sessions and accidental moments of vulnerability, something unexpected begins to shift. They slowly discover cracks in each other's armor-a truth hidden behind Hermione's fierce drive for justice and Draco's stoic facade. As walls come down, hatred turns into hesitant understanding, and understanding blossoms into something undeniable.

Tangled Threads by Tamaraperez2023

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.

All the Light We Kept || Drarry by theSunnyDLite

After the Battle of Hogwarts, peace proves harder to find than victory ever was. Harry Potter returns to finish his final year, haunted by the ghosts of war. Draco Malfoy comes back, too; not seeking redemption, but the chance to breathe again. Between sleepless nights, quiet corridors, and unexpected kindness, two boys who once stood on opposite sides of a war begin to rebuild what the world nearly broke. What begins as wary civility becomes friendship, then something more,.. something worth fighting for, even in peacetime. Years will pass,.. friends will marry, families will grow, and the world will heal,.. but some stories never really end. This is theirs: a story not of war, but of what comes after; forgiveness, love, and the life that blooms in the quiet.
