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.
