Hey guys, this is my new dramione story- Love Indeed :) This below is the prologue, so it's a lot shorter than the rest of the chapters I plan to write :D Anyway, Enjoy, and please review :3 they make me happy...I'll be posting chapter 1 soon, and one chapter a week after that XD Enjoy! :)


Hermione was laughing freely with her friends at Grimmauld place, something she had not done in a while. It was a week after the fall of the world's darkest wizard- Lord Voldemort. Harry, Ron and Hermione still could not believe that it was all over. It had payed off. The long nights camping in the freezing forest, and risking their lives, breaking into Gringotts, fighting the war- it had been worth it. There was nothing to trouble the golden trio, or the rest of the wizarding world anymore.

They said that the war had lodged major changes, whether physically or emotionally. Some people, like Dennis Creevey, were emotionally scarred forever at the death of his only brother- Colin. Some people had suffered physical trauma, like Lavender Brown and her wounds from Greyback…

But no matter what the damage, the wizarding communities were determined to fix everything. Fix everything that had perished in the purge of Voldemort, and bring everything back to normal. Or as normal as it can be returned to at least…

Early this morning, three owls had soared into the kitchen on Grimmauld Place and shrieked until someone came running downstairs. That someone happened to be Hermione. She was confused. Who would be writing to them?

Hermione gently took the letters from the owl, retrieved an owl treat from the cupboards, and sent the owl away. The middle envelope was addressed to her, and it was sealed with a Hogwarts crest that Hermione was very familiar with, and her heart started beating in anticipation. She slit the seal, and slipped the letter out.

Dear Miss Hermione Jean Granger,

Due to the second wizarding war, Miss Granger has not received her proper education for her seventh year at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Miss Granger has been invited to complete her studies and return to school on September 1st. Other students will be invited to repeat the seventh year, as Hogwarts has restored most of the damages inflicted to the castle during the war. We await your reply no later than 31st August.

Please find the list of books and equipment required for the seventh year enclosed with this letter

Sincerely,

Professor M. McGonagall

Hermione screamed in joy and Harry and Ron came tumbling down the stairs, brandishing their wands and yelling, "'Mione! What's going on?" Hermione grinned and pointed to their letters.

"We're going back to Hogwarts!" she screamed again in happiness of returning back to the castle which was like her second home.

Harry's eyes lit up immediately, and he rushed to open his letter. Ron read his eagerly and yelled in exhilaration, and Harry started laughing and hugging Hermione. They were going back to Hogwarts.

Draco was sitting in his library, reading a book when a large tawny barn owl came gliding through the window. He laid the book aside and got up to retrieve his letter.

After the war, his father had been immediately sent to Azkaban, but Draco and his mother had been vouched for by none other than Harry Potter himself. He was now in charge of Malfoy Manor, as the only male descendant of the family, and he and his mother lived alone, not daring to leave the house. The war had changed Draco's views on muggle-borns, and he had redefined his interpretation of good and evil. He understood he had been fighting on the wrong side, and was determined to fix his errors in some way.

The letter was sealed with the red Hogwarts was seal, and Draco knew what was waiting for him inside the envelope. He opened it and took out the thick sheet of parchment.

Dear Mr Draco Lucius Malfoy,

Due to the second wizarding war, Mr Malfoy has not received his proper education for her seventh year at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Mr Malfoy has been invited to complete his studies and return to school on September 1st. Other students will be invited to repeat the seventh year, as Hogwarts has restored most of the damages inflicted to the castle during the war. We await your reply no later than 31st August.

Draco sighed. He knew he would be watched for the year; heck they even had aurors watching him and his mother in the Manor sometimes. But he would have a chance to prove that he knew his actions in the war were wrong; a chance to show that he was deeply regretful. He knew he had to start somewhere; which was why he was going back to Hogwarts. Draco nearly smiled.
