Through The Years

Summary:

The first ten years they spent together weren't all sunshine and magic, but they made it work. Every cloud had its silver lining, some just needed longer to be found than the others.

Notes:

To my dear Giftee,

I wrote you a 23K long fic, but life happened and I had neither the time nor the mental capacity to edit it and polish it out, so instead of bringing you a huge unbeta'd mess, I bring you a short, equally unbeta'd mess. I'm sorry, and I just hope they weren't that big of a disappointment.

I haven't written drabbles in probably a year, so I enjoyed doing them again, the hopefully much better fic is coming this summer, and it will be good (I think).

P.S. the fic isn't going to be a longer rendition of these drabbles, I'm afraid, but will have similar tags.

Chapter 1

Chapter Text

Year one was relatively uneventful,

For they had just reacquainted with one another,

Almost a decade after the war,

He, a broken, scarred man,

And she, a tortured, equally broken woman.

They found themselves under the same roof again,

After ten years of not seeing hair nor hide of one another,

She took her position as the Arithmancy professor,

Residing back in the Gryffindor Tower after all this time,

And he, a returned headmaster,

As always, kept to his dark and cold dungeons,

So they rarely ran into one another,

Besides sitting at the opposite ends of the High Table.
