    Summary

    Harry had only returned to Hogwarts for Eighth Year because he was no longer sure he wanted to spend his entire life fighting bad guys—or at least not without a little breather since the last time he’d marched off to his own death to save the world.

    But what was he supposed to do if he didn’t sign on as an Auror? Being the Sad Sack Who Survived—moping around Grimmauld Place with no job and no life—wasn’t going to cut it. Not for the press, and not when his best friends were sailing successfully off into adulthood without him. So he’d returned to Hogwarts alone to try to figure out what came next after the war had been won.

    He had NOT come back to be stuck with Draco Malfoy for another year. So how the hell had he ended up sharing dreams with the bastard every night?
