NOTE: This is an unfinished story that I wrote when I was 13. I cannot promise that I will finish it. I wrote this in 2020, and it's now mid-2022. Hey everyone! This is my first fanfiction, it's a Dramione one and I'm really excited. :D This story is based just after the Battle of Hogwarts and everyone returns for their seventh year. Harry, Ron, and Hermione, the golden trio, accompanied by Ginny, Luna, and Neville, return to Hogwarts as war heroes and look forward to an exciting new year without the usual death threats from Voldemort. But they're not the only ones to return, Draco Malfoy also returns, alone. As cruel whispers follow him in the corridors, he finds sympathy in the person he least expected, Hermione Granger. Hermione watches from afar as she sees Draco's confidence continue to deteriorate, she offers her sympathy and sooner or later her friendship. The two become the most unlikely of friends but fear how others might react. So they keep it hidden, and all is well until one night on the Astronomy tower... (I don't own any of these characters, they all belong to J.K Rowling)
