Summary
Five years after the war, Draco Malfoy keeps his life small: a London flat, a forgettable Ministry job, and a policy of avoiding literally everyone. It’s working—he’s stable, if still sarcastic as hell—right up until Hermione Granger shows up to ruin his lunch.
Now a Ministry Investigator, she “requests” his help searching Malfoy Manor for a dangerous artifact…one the last Death Eaters are also hunting. But when a routine inspection turns into something far more tangled—surfacing long-buried truths—they’ll have to confront who they were and who they might become.
----
Or, Draco got therapy and space after the war. He's still an arse but is trying to be a better person when he reconnects with Hermione in an unexpected way.

Summary
One act of charity starts an avalanche. At a moment when Draco is most vulnerable, Hermione steps out of her comfort zone and takes him for coffee and it sparks something that threatens to overwhelm them.

Summary
Hermione Granger never went to Hogwarts. She gave up a life of magic to stay by her ailing father's side.
Draco Malfoy never knew his father. Lucius Malfoy was sentenced to Azkaban as a Death Eater and punished accordingly after the Order defeated the Dark Lord (for the first and last time).
Years later, their paths cross at King's Cross Station. Hermione is a ticket attendant, working several jobs to make ends meet, and Draco is a Hogwarts professor, commuting weekly on the Hogwarts Express. And then there's Theodore Nott: Draco's best friend, and the man Hermione has fallen hopelessly in love with at first sight (much to Draco's dismay).
-----------------------
Working at King's Cross station has its perks:
- It gives Hermione plenty of time to read
- She gets to see her "Handsome Stranger" (the charming man she's certain she's fallen for)Working at King's Cross station has its drawbacks, too:
- Namely, "Jack Frost" (her "Handsome Stranger's" incredibly rude friend, whose frigid glare could turn someone's heart to ice with one glance)A Dramione retelling of: While You Were Sleeping.
