Summary
Harry Potter is the Savior of the Wizarding world with a hero complex a mile wide. Dating him means learning to share him with other people for his work, galas, fundraisers, and everything else that goes along with being the savior, right?
Draco has a lot of toxic traits, or so he's been told. He's dated enough men in the past five years to know he's not anyone's first choice as a partner. Draco was quite determined to put all of the information about the unappealing parts of himself that he’d garnered from previous partners to good use. Harry was the best thing that had ever happened to him and he wasn’t going to mess it up, thank you very much.
This was how he found himself, on his twenty-fourth birthday, telling his boyfriend that it was fine for him to miss his dinner party.

Summary
Harry couldn’t remember ever feeling more nervous in his life than he did in this moment. Which, given all that he’d been through in his life, was saying something.
“Relax,” Draco said, his fingers threading through Harry’s as they walked up the walk to the home that Draco’s parents had moved into after the war. “What’s going on with you? Everything’s fine,” he assured.
Harry had been to the Malfoys’ enough not to be nervous about brunch, but this time was different; Draco didn’t know it, but today was important. Everything had to go perfect.
(It did not go perfect.)

“Tell me about this one,” Draco murmured into Harry’s cooling skin. He brushed his lips lightly over the scar in question on Harry’s clavicle. Harry wore his scars the way some people wore tattoos, to remind him of important things, to remind him of lessons learned, and victories won.
Harry hummed softly and Circe Draco loved him like this; soft, and sated, and content. He wanted to scoop him up and hide him away inside of his own body for safe keeping.

“So are you in love with Astoria, then?” Ron asked.
Draco downed a shot of… something. He honestly had no idea what it was. It was strong, whatever it was, and it was getting him drunk and that was enough. He pushed the shot glass away, “Nope,” he replied, steadily not looking at his auror partner and gazing aimlessly at the bottles of alcohol lined up behind the bar.
“Then what’s going on?” Ron asked, bumping Draco’s shoulder with his. “Come on, we’ve been partners for three years and you’ve never even sat down for a beer with me this early in the day.”
He motioned for the bartender to pour him another shot.
“Seriously,” Ron said, “You have to slow down or you’ll end up at St. Mungo’s with alcohol poisoning.”
“Do you think Potter would come visit me?” he asked miserably.

Summary
He should be sad. There should be tears, and weeping, and mourning. People were dead.
He should be happy. Voldemort was dead and the people who'd hurt so many of the people that Harry loved were going to prison.
He should be mad. Voldemort's death was only the first step; there was still so much wrong with the world, still so much hurt and injustice and the people in power only did what they needed to in order to keep it.
But Harry wasn’t sad, or mad, or happy. He wasn’t anything. He couldn’t feel anything and the numbness just set in further and further with every passing day.
He needed to feel something.
So he’d run. And then one night, in a muggle club, he saw him. Draco bloody Malfoy. Dressed in skin tight muggle jeans and a tight black tshirt, the cartilage of his left ear was pierced in three places, and he had at least three muggle tattoos (one covering the dark mark on his left arm with flowers).
And for the first time in quite a long time, he felt something.

Summary
“Tell me,” Draco breathed on the seventeenth morning, as Harry was making their coffee, boxing Harry in against the counter in the kitchen and rubbing his nose against Harry’s neck right over the sensitive spot that Draco knew drove Harry completely wild.
“There’s nothing-” he started before Draco’s tongue flicked out and pressed against his pulse point, “Circe, fuck,” Harry groaned as Draco sucked lightly at his skin. “Nothing to tell,” he managed.
Draco nipped at his pulse point then, his teeth sharp before his lips and tongue soothed the sting, “You’re lying. Your pulse is elevated.”
“Arousal,” Harry argued.
“There is that, too,” Draco murmured wickedly as his mouth moved lower and he sucked at Harry’s collarbone instead. “But it’s not just that. You have plenty of tells when you’re lying, you’re horrible at it.”

Harry drew Draco’s knuckles to his lips and pressed a soft kiss to his delicate skin. “Dance with me,” he murmured, spur of the moment and just a little ridiculous.
“What?” Draco asked with a laugh as Harry stood up and flicked a finger at the wireless to turn it on.
“Dance with me,” he repeated, tugging Draco up out of his chair and drawing him into the safety of Harry’s body, wrapping one arm securely around his waist and keeping his other hand clasped in his own.

“And I know,” he added, just in case Harry’s sleeping subconscious was listening, the way it sometimes seemed to. “I know that you couldn’t possibly love me back. That’s not what I’m asking for, it’s just…” he trailed off and let his fingers skim over Harry’s bicep, “It’s nice to be in love, even if it’s just me.”
“It’s not just you,” Harry murmured and Draco almost jumped out of his skin.

Summary
Draco Malfoy was ridiculously competent and Harry found it ridiculously attractive.
“Alright, Potter,” he snarked. “Is this enough for your delicate sensibilities? Can we solve this case now?”
“You know, Malfoy,” he said as he shrugged out of his auror robes, “A simple ‘please’ once in a while wouldn’t go amiss.”
He rolled his eyes, “Oh, please, good and gracious savior, would you please help little old me to solve the case so that you can get all of the glory?”
Harry winced. He knew Malfoy was taking the piss but it hit a bit too close to home. It always seemed like no matter what they did or how they solved the case, Robards always found some way to attribute it to Harry’s abilities. No matter what Harry said to the contrary. “Malfoy-”
“Oh, don’t,” he said, waving a hand. “It’s fine. I don’t care.”
“Well I care,” Harry grumbled as he slipped his shoes off.
Malfoy smirked at him, “Well if you really want to make it up to me you’ll hurry the fuck up and lay down on this mat so we can figure out what happened to our victim.”

Summary
“Oh, hello, Harry,” Luna said, before tilting her head in that peculiar way of hers, “I see you’re being plagued by the jimmiricks.”
“Sorry, the what?” he asked politely.
“Jimmiricks,” she repeated, “They’ve pronounced all of those feelings of longing and rejection,” he said, patting his arm conciliatorily and flouncing away before giving him a chance to respond.
“I haven’t got feelings of longing and rejection!” he called after her, ignoring the weird look that one of the women who worked in the justice department with Hermione sent his way.
It was a lie. He knew it and Luna probably did, too, thanks to whatever wacky little creature she could see. He’d be way more inclined to believe that she was nuts if she wasn’t always right.
He turned, his eyes immediately seeking out that shock of blond hair, frowning as he watched as Malfoy laughed at something Ginny said, resting his hand lightly on her forearm. Luna slipped up behind him then and wrapped her arms around his waist and he smiled, clasping his hand over her arms and looking over his shoulder at her.
And it wasn’t that Harry felt like Malfoy rejected him outright, it was just that he was the only person Malfoy wouldn’t touch.

Summary
“I’m tired of hiding,” Draco whispered into Harry’s skin, the other man still smelled of sweat, and heat, and them.
Harry trailed his fingers along Draco’s spine, “Let’s not decide tonight,” he said reasonably, they’d been through this before. Sometimes, especially after sex, Draco decided that he wanted to tell everyone about the two of them. Harry was always willing, and had told Hermione and Ron, in fact, because Draco had said he was telling his parents. But that was months ago and Draco’s parents still didn’t know.
And it was fine, truly. Harry didn’t care about the rest of the world. He didn’t mind pretending they were just friends as long as he got to come home to Draco each night.
“I’m sorry,” Draco said, his face crumpling, “I’ve done this too many times,” he said, “You don’t even believe that I want to come out anymore.”
“I don’t think that,” Harry said, pulling the sheets up higher around his waist and wandlessly summoning his glasses. “There are a lot of reasons to keep this a secret. Your parents-”
“Are bigots,” Draco finished.
Harry cupped his face in his palm, “They’re still your parents.”
“And I am their son,” he replied. “I’m telling them tomorrow. At brunch.”

Summary
“Truth or Dare, or Drink,“ Ron shouted as he threw himself down on the sofa next to Potter.
Honestly, Draco could scarcely believe he was here. Sitting in Potter’s house sipping a bottle of beer (thank Circe his mother couldn’t see him). It had been a moment of weakness, Ron’s arm around his shoulders as he told him he’d done a brilliant job on the case today, and invited him back to his house for a drink with all of the other first year aurors.
It would be fine. No one knew about his crush on Potter and he’d never pick truth so no one had to know.
He watched with bemused confusion as Weasley lined up shot glasses on the coffee table.
"If you want out of the truth or dare you can take a shot,” Potter said just behind him, his breath ghosting over Draco’s ear and sending a shiver up his spine. “I learned the hard way not to say truth,” he added as Draco turned to look at him. “They are ruthless and will want to know your darkest secrets.”
“Not just darkest,” Finnegan called, “I’ll settle for dirtiest most of the time.”

Summary
Harry was obsessed. Obsessed with Draco’s pregnant body, with his tummy, his belly button that was pressing out now, his gorgeous glowing skin. He was pretty sure that Draco had never looked as gorgeous as he did now.
He was pretending to read the paper, but really he was just staring at his gorgeous, pregnant husband.
With a little groan, Draco levered himself up out of the chair he was sitting in, one hand supporting his back as he stood.
“Are you alright?” Harry asked, giving up the pretense of reading the paper.
“Fine,” Draco said, waving him off as he paced a bit. “Stop looking at me,” he grumbled.
“I can’t,” Harry whined, standing up and moving to wrap his arms around Draco. “You’re waddling like a cute little duck and I just want to squish you.”
Draco huffed but leaned into Harry. “Ouch,” he grunted, rubbing at his stomach. “Ooh, watch yourself little miss,” he murmured.

Stabbed by drarrily-we-row-along (fearfully_beautifully_made)

Summary
Draco loved the chase.
It was one of his favorite things about being an auror, dashing after criminals, Harry racing along beside him. He loved the chase and the duels, heart pumping, and adrenaline racing through his veins.
Chasing down Calvin this afternoon was no exception.
He was just a few paces ahead of Harry as he rounded the corner after Calvin. He drew up short, surprised to find that Calvin hadn’t kept running, but was instead standing just around the corner with his silver blade, that he probably used to make positions, poised to be plunged into someone’s body.
To say he was shocked to be stabbed (when they had wands and magic available to them) would be an understatement.
But Calvin had in fact stabbed him and there was a flash of vindictive glee in his eyes before Harry was around the corner and casting a quick incarcerous.
“You stabbed me,” Draco said, uncomprehendingly as he staggered backwards and started to fall.

Summary
Harry had really fucked up.
Not just like your normal, run-of-the-mill mistake but a huge one that had left him walking around bereft and devastated for the past two weeks. And had brought him here, to France, walking along a street in Paris in the rain, and trying to find a home that may or may not exist.
On his ninth pass in front of the completely normal muggle homes, the buildings started to shift, parting and spreading to reveal a home in the way that Grimmuald was always revealed. It was a long shot, but Harry had been hoping that it would show itself since he was heir of one of the Black ancestral homes himself.
He sprinted to the door and knocked, “Draco!” he called. “Draco, please!” He waited a moment, it started raining harder but at this point it really didn’t matter because he was already soaked to the bones.
After a moment of nothing happening, Harry pounded on the door again, “Draco!” he shouted. “I know you are in there. I can feel it!” he called, and he could feel it, Draco’s magic seeping through the door; crisp, and cool, and familiar.
Still there was no answer, so Harry pounded again, “Please!”

Summary
Draco Malfoy’s skin looked incandescent in the starlight.
His fair hair shone in the moonlight, rippling down to his shoulders, his pale skin was all but glowing. Draco Malfoy looked like the type of fairy that Harry used to dream about at night when he was little and longing for an escape. Something twisted painfully in his gut at that thought.
The other boy was sitting with his knees pulled up to his chest, arms wrapped around his shins as he watched the proceedings.
He was watching, just watching, the way that he seemed to be so often. It’s what had made Harry approach him in the first place at the beginning of the year, it’s how they eventually became friends. It was unsettling, seeing him detached from everything like that.
“You’re staring again,” Ginny murmured as she plopped down on the blanket next to him and nudged him with her shoulder.

Summary
Draco should have known that friends with benefits was a bad idea.
He should have known himself well enough to know that the thought of having sex with someone he wasn’t already emotionally invested in would have been repulsive. And so it should have occurred to him when he agreed to casually fucking Harry Potter (and being fucked by Harry Potter, really the end he was on made no difference) that he was already emotionally invested in him.
In short: Draco Malfoy was screwed. And not in the good way.

Summary
Draco was sitting in the staff lounge grading some papers next to Minerva when Harry came storming in, looking like he was ready to vanquish Voldemort all over again.
“Did you know about Alice?” he asked Minerva, voice positively thunderous.
“Potter, do watch your tone with me,” she said lightly, taking a sip of her tea.
“Did you know?” he repeated and something in his voice made the base of Draco’s spine feel tingly, like he was looking over the edge of a cliff.
“Know what?” he asked.
Harry’s eyes snapped to him before looking back at Minerva, “She can’t go back there,” he growled.
“Where?” Draco asked, feeling like he was missing a vital part of the conversation.
Minerva eyed him over the top of her glasses, “Where would you suggest she go?”
“Literally anywhere,” he said. “I-” he broke off, “I need a minute but we need to figure it out, this is not acceptable anymore. She's just a child-” he started before breaking off and fleeing the room.

Summary
Halfway through Draco’s eighth year at Hogwarts he started receiving anonymous notes.
He’d assumed, when the first scrap of parchment had arrived via an ordinary, school barn owl, that it was something threatening and he had cast multiple spells to ensure that it wasn’t something that was going to hurt him. When the spells turned up nothing ominous, Draco looked around to see if anyone was watching him, then he carefully opened the note.
I really admire the way you’re working to build yourself a different life. You’re really brave.

Summary
Draco couldn’t help but stand in the doorway, staring at Harry and Rose together, with something akin to awe blossoming between his ribs. Watching them made something in Draco’s chest ache.
Harry was good with kids, he treated them like they were the most important people in the room, like he really cared about Princess Melon the toy horse. Whenever they went to a Weasley family party, Harry spent most of his time playing with the kids.
And kids loved Harry.
He felt a bit guilty. Draco could never quite work up the courage to ask if Harry wanted to have kids of his own, always too afraid that his answer would be yes.

Summary
It wasn’t the fact that he was walking into the muggle bar that Harry worked at that shocked him, it was the fact that Malfoy had trimmed his hair short on the sides and left the top long; it was that he’d dyed it hot pink.
It was the fact that his left arm had a muggle tattoo covering the dark mark that had once been there with beautiful, bright flowers; new life coming out of death. It was the dragon tattoo peaking out of the collar of his shirt, that Harry guessed, was shaped around his namesake constellation.
It was the loose, black v-neck, muggle t-shirt tucked into skinny jeans that were cuffed just above his ankles. And the three earrings in the cartilage at the top of his right ear.
It was that he looked nothing like the stiff, tidy, pretentious twat that Harry would have envisioned him growing into and it made Harry wonder what else he was wrong about.

It felt like an eternity but they finally made it upstairs and stumbled through the door only for both of them to draw up short.
“There’s only one bed,” Harry said.
“Yes, thank you for stating the obvious, Potter,” Draco drawled, quietly panicking.
After a beat Harry suggested, “Why don’t you go shower and I’ll check in with the desk about it.”
---------
“What was the verdict?” Draco asked.Harry turned and looked over at his shoulder, his eyes sliding over Draco’s body covered only in a bathrobe and making Draco feel warm all over before he reminded himself that they were professionals. The other man couldn’t possibly be interested in him like that, he chastised himself. He needed to get his head out of the clouds before he ruined everything.
“This is literally the only room left in the hotel,” Harry said. “It’s a queen size bed, though,” he said with a little shrug, “We should be okay, right?” he asked, voice soft and strangely vulnerable.

Summary
One afternoon Harry returned from work earlier than his boyfriend anticipated.
He was not prepared for his lovely partner to be sitting at a piano (that hadn’t been in their living room that morning) with his back straight and fingers dancing over the keys.
He played with his whole body, and Harry was mesmerized by the way his hair long, blond hair swayed with his movement; by the way his long, elegant fingers stretched across the keys; by the way his hands seemed to move effortlessly over the keyboard.
He watched as Draco’s body curved in on itself as the music got quieter, sadder; watched the way his presence seemed to expand with the music as it rose to it’s climax. And he felt it all the way down his toes as Draco slowed the last few bars, his fingers drifting over the keys with great care, before landing on the final chord.
The last notes hung shimmering in the air and Harry’s breath caught and held until Draco released the chord, lifting his fingers from the keys and foot from the pedal, leaving the room in silence.

Harry’s mobile rang and he couldn’t help but smile as he reached for his back pocket. It had taken a while but Draco had finally come around on mobiles, he called him almost every day on his lunch and it was one of Harry’s favorite parts of his day.
“Hey you,” he greeted. “I was thinking pot roast for dinner, would you pick up some carrots on your way?”
“Harry,” he gasped and the hairs on the back of Harry’s neck stood on end, his entire body tingling like he was about to fall off a cliff.
“Where are you?” he asked. “I’m coming for you.”
“Too late,” the other man rasped.
Harry shook his head, and grabbed his wand, “No-”
“Please,” Draco begged, breath rattling in his chest, “Listen,” he gasped, “to me.”
“I love you,” he said. “So much. You,” he broke of, a cough rattling around in his chest. “Are the best thing that ever happened to me.”
Harry’s breath caught on a panicked sob, “Draco-”
“You,” he gasped, crying out in pain, “you saved me. Love yo-”

He smiled at the phone as he listened to the voicemail, gripping it a little tighter as he imagined that scenario playing out in his mind.
“And then, you can take me home with you at the end of the night.”
Harry promptly choked on his saliva. Draco Malfoy couldn’t be implying what he thought he was implying.
“What’s your bed like, Potter? Is it soft? Is it red?” he asked, aghast. “Maybe we should come back to mine instead. You’d look so lovely on my green sheets.” He trailed off with a wistful little sigh. “Or. Just call me back and tell me to leave the club right now. Tell me to floo over and maybe we won’t make it past the living room. Maybe on that hideous sofa. Hell maybe we won’t make it past that garish rug.”
There was a short pause and Harry wondered if Draco was imagining it like he was.
“I’m dying to kiss you.” he murmured. “Surely you see it, surely you know. And I’ll be anything you want me to be, Harry. Anything. Because you must know that I-”
The voicemail ended abruptly and Harry glared at the phone. What happened? He opened the voicemail box again and a notification popped up. His mailbox was full.

Draco wasn’t trying to snoop.
Okay, maybe he was, but just a little. And anyway, he couldn’t really be blamed; Harry said he wanted to take turns doing the laundry so he should have known that Draco would be opening his sock drawer. He should have done a better job of hiding it if he didn’t want Draco to find it.
Obviously, this was entirely Harry’s fault.
Draco stood in the middle of the floor, socks scattered around him and stared and the small blue velvet box he’d found.
He trailed his fingers over the lid, over and over, his heart fluttering wildly in his chest. It couldn’t be what it seemed like, could it?

“Harry,” she said softly, reaching across the table and laying her hand over his, “What in Merlin’s name has gotten into you? Of course I like you.”
“What do you like about me?”
She drew back and tilted her head consideringly at him, “I like that you’re…” she trailed off. “I like you, Harry,” she said with a huff. “I like that you’re kind and that you’re a good listener. I like that you want to protect people. I like that you’re loyal.”
“You’re describing a golden retriever, Gin,” he said, pushing his glasses up so that he could rub wearily over his eyes.
“Harry-” she started sounding a hint defensive.
“What are we doing?” he asked, letting his glasses drop down so that he could look at the woman he’d been engaged to for almost a year without planning a single thing about their wedding and he wondered how he hadn’t seen it before.

With just one look, Draco could tell that Harry’s entire body ached.
He was walking slowly, gingerly, holding his body stiffly as though any unexpected jostling might cause more pain. “Oh, love,” Draco whispered.
“It’s fine,” Harry said, glancing up at his words.
“Mmhmm,” he hummed. “Are you actually hurt or just sore?”
Harry shook his head as he toed off his trainers, “Just sore.”
“Are you hungry?” Draco asked.
The other man shook his head again, “Just tired, love.”
He held out a hand and Harry’s fingers slid through, “Come on,” he murmured, leading him back to the bathroom where he’d already drawn a bath and added meadowsweet, sage, and chamomile.

Summary
Draco had always had a weird sort of attraction to Harry Potter.
There was always something there bubbling under the surface, something that he’d misinterpreted (for quite a long time) as loathing. It was an itch to touch, to have Potter under his hands that he eventually realized was about more than wanting to beat him up.
Still, Draco could have gone on ignoring it, that ache inside of him that made him want to tear his hair out, if not for the fact that when they returned for 8th year, Potter had an entirely new wardrobe.
His clothes had always been so hideous before this year and now here he was in tight t-shirts that clung to his chest and shoulders, tight jeans that hugged his arse and his thighs, and a bloody leather jacket. Draco nearly had a coronary the first time he saw him.
And he’d grown over the summer, at least five inches, and his shoulders had filled out and he’d packed on some muscle; and honestly, how was Draco even supposed to live?

Summary
After the war, after his eighth year at Hogwarts, after training to be an Auror, after quitting that soul-sucking job, and after accepting the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts; Harry started to let his hair grow out.
It wasn’t intentional at first, not really, he was just unbelievably busy teaching. But after a few months, his hair, which had always had a mind of its own, had grown long enough that the wavy-curls brushed his jaw. He’d looked at himself in the mirror one morning and heard his Aunt Petunia’s voice in his head, scolding him and telling him that only girls had long hair. He told that voice in his head to fuck right off and kept growing his hair out.
Not that it mattered what anyone else thought, but nearly everyone had said that his hair suited him. The exception, as it so often seemed to be, was Draco Malfoy. It wasn’t as that the Potion’s Professor had said outright that he didn’t like Harry’s hair, but his eyes were always slightly narrowed as though his hair was doing something offensive just by existing. Harry couldn’t understand it.

“You’re sure you can’t get here any sooner than Friday to fix the shower?” he asked the maintenance man over the muggle mobile he’d purchased shortly before moving in.
“I’ll get there as soon as I can but it’s Friday at the earliest,” the man replied, “right now I have a busted toilet, a broken garbage disposal, a kitchen light repair, a cabinet door replacement, a window that won’t open, a door knob that the lock sticks on, and an ac unit that is pumping in hot air.”
Draco resisted the urge to tell him to hire some help and sighed, “Right. Thank you.”
The man grunted in response and hung up.
After a moment of contemplating his options, he gathered up his bath supplies and marched down the hall. When he’d moved in a girl named Amelia had told him if he ever needed anything just to come knock on her door. She’d said that she and her boyfriend would be happy to help, and she had even mentioned a shower breaking specifically.
The door opened and Draco felt the bottom of his stomach drop out. “Potter?” he spluttered.
“Draco Malfoy, what the actual fuck?”

There was a certain bond that formed between two people when all of your friends were paired off and dating someone. When the two of you were the only single people so you got paired off to share food, and be partners in games, and all other manner of things.
Harry supposed that tonight would be just one more of those nights as he arrived at Ginny and Luna’s. And he wasn’t complaining (not anymore, at least) it had taken a couple of years but he and Draco had warmed up to each other. They had compatible styles for partner games, Draco always gave Harry any treats with nuts and Harry gave him any treats with mint, and Harry genuinely enjoyed his dry sense of humor.
If he was being honest, he’d started looking forward to all of the time that he got to spend with Draco on Friday nights.
Nothing prepared him for the green monster that swallowed him whole when Draco brought someone else to dinner.

And Harry couldn’t help but wonder why no one had ever told him that once you and your soulmate were both 18 a soul mark would appear on your skin after you kissed, signalling that you’d found the person you were supposed to spend forever with. What was even the point of Hogwarts if they didn’t teach you about basic things like soulmates? And honestly, why hadn’t Ron and Hermione said anything at the very least?
The day Ginny Weasley turns 18, Harry has the painful realization that Ginny isn't his.

Draco trailed his fingers along the smooth, strong planes of Harry’s body. He loved the time they spent together like this when it was just the two of them, their bodies in sync, it felt like even their heartbeats had lined up.
Harry hummed as Draco’s thumb brushed over his nipple and he pressed a kiss against Draco’s forehead. “This is nice,” Harry whispered. “I always like getting to lay here with you.”
“Sometimes I think you might be my soulmate,” Draco murmured back, thinking it was funny that they’d been thinking the same thing.
“I don’t believe in soulmates,” Harry said and Draco’s heart froze. “One person that you’re destined to be with,” he shrugged, “seems like nonsense.”
“Right,” Draco said as he pulled away. “Of course.” He grabbed his hair tie off of the nightstand and pulled his hair up as he stood and moved to collect his things.
“Draco, what-”
“Nothing,” he said. “You’re right. We’re just fucking, it was stupid of me to forget,” he added as he pulled on his trousers.

Summary
As Draco was on his way out after a very long day of work one afternoon, the skies opened up and it started to pour.
“Just wonderful,” he grumbled as he reached for his wand and cast a hasty umbrella charm to protect himself from getting wet. He heard the sounds of people all around him doing the same but when he looked up he saw someone doing something quite different.
Potter was just standing there letting the rain soak through his hair and through his clothes, water rolling down his nose and his chin as he stood there with his head bowed.
He wondered if Potter had forgotten his wand or forgotten the charm, perhaps, but as he watched Potter took his glass off, looked up to the sky and just stood there, letting the rain run down his face.
Draco was entranced. But it wasn’t adorable, he told himself firmly. Potter’s face opened up into a smile and there was something inside of Draco that unclenched at how free and young Potter looked standing there in the rain.
Or four times that Harry and Draco get caught in the rain and one time they don't.

Draco pounded on the door in front of him, “Potter!” he hollered. “Open up. As your partner, the DMLE has sent me to check and make sure you’re still alive.”
A pause then Draco started pounding again. “Seriously! Open up. You haven’t been in for three days and everyone is worried about you.”
He waited again and when there was still no answer, he hammered on the door again, “If you don’t let me in, I will knock this door down!”
Just as he was drawing his wand, the door opened to reveal Harry in his pajamas. His hair was in a horrible state of disarray and he looked a bit green.
“Merlin,” Draco muttered, “You look awful.”
“Well you look lovely as usual.”
Draco firmly reminded his skin that it was undignified to blush. He was about to speak when Potter swayed dangerously and Draco was forced to dart forward to catch him. “Your shirt is soaked, Potter, and you smell disgusting.”
“Literally no one asked you to come here,” Harry said as he turned and moved back inside. “I’m sick. Leave me alone.”

“Calm down? Calm down?! Pansy, you recall that I have a dark mark don’t you? The final is half of our grade! I’m going to fail.”
“You’re not going to fail,” she informed him calmly. “You’ll learn Draco, you have over three weeks.”
“But I’m an ex-death eater,” he whispered, as though anyone could ever forget. “Death eaters can’t cast a patronus, you know that.”
“That’s not true,” a voice behind them piped up, making Draco jump.
“For Circe’s sake, Potter, stop sneaking around,” he grumbled.
The other boy shrugged, “Sorry,” he said unrepentantly, “Couldn’t help but overhear what you were saying.”
Draco rolled his eyes, “Oh, you just couldn’t help it, huh?”
He flicked a careless grin at Draco, his dimple showing, and as always, Draco didn’t know quite what to do with that. “I’m just saying that death eaters could cast a patronus.”
“How would you know?” Draco asked, crossing his arms over his chest.
“Snape could cast one, and Merlin knows that you did far less horrific shite than he did,” Potter replied as he sauntered past them and into the common room. “I could help you, if you want,” he called over his shoulder before walking out of view.

Summary
Draco had never enjoyed sleeping alone.
When he was young, he’d often crawled into bed with his mother at night. He slept better with another heart beating near his own, with arms around him, with someone’s calves to warm his perpetually cold feet.
The day Draco had gotten married, one of his first thoughts was that he would never have to sleep alone again.
He was wrong.
Harry had been away on a mission for 19 days, 13 hours, and 53 minutes and Draco hated every single moment of it, but he especially hated going to bed, waking up in the middle of the night, and waking up in the morning alone. It didn’t help that he had no idea where Harry was, when he was coming back, or if he was safe.
Eventually, he managed to fall into a restless sleep out of sheer exhaustion and when he woke up again, it was still dark outside and Draco found himself in that strange hazy place between sleeping and awake.
He felt a pair of arms wrap around him and pull him back until he was pressed against the hard planes of another body, and he would recognize those arms and that body anywhere. “Harry,” he managed through a slurred murmur.
“Shh,” the other man whispered, “Go back to sleep. darling.”

“Don’t remind me,” Draco groaned, “I’d just hoped that your title as savior would outweigh mine as an ex-death eater, but everyone thinks that I eat puppies for breakfast or something.”
“Wizards are idiots, so I thought instead we could try this,” he said, pointing at the building they were in front of. “It’s a muggle animal shelter.”

Summary
After the war, Draco received quite a bit of mail, most of it not very nice. So he’d developed a potion that would help him to know what to expect when opening the letters. One drop on the outside of the envelope and it would change colors to reflect the emotions of the person who’d written it.
It served him well until one afternoon when the post arrived and he dripped the potion onto a standard white envelope, watching the bead of liquid go from clear to pink. He waited, tapping his finger impatiently, sure that it was going to continue to red (because red was anger, hurt, and frustration and he got quite a few of those still).
But the dot stayed the same pretty pink.
Frowning, he tried again, but the second drop stayed equally pink. He pulled the next letter over and dripped a bit of the potion onto it, it turned green. That was normal, just someone trying to get on with their own business; Draco was certain it was an order for a potion.
After trying the rest of the envelopes, he tried the first letter once more. Pink.
Draco had never gotten a letter that was written out of love before. Curiosity sufficiently peaked, he opened the letter.

Summary
Harry was always quiet and withdrawn when there was a thunderstorm.
Draco hated it. The other man retreated to a place inside of himself that Draco couldn’t follow him to and it made Draco uneasy. Harry would come back to him when the storm was over but he didn’t enjoy what happened in the meantime.
It had been raining all day today, thunder and lightning rolling through intermittently and Harry had been silent, watching the rain pound against the window of their home. And Draco couldn’t take it anymore.
He shrunk their mattress and carried it out into the living room where he enlarged it once more. Harry turned his head away from the window to watch Draco instead, resting his cheek on his drawn up knees. Still, he didn’t say anything.
Draco didn’t either, he pulled the pillows down off the couch and framed the sides before draping a blanket over the top and making a cozy little cave. Then he went and fetched pillows and blankets from their room, then biscuits from the kitchen, and ‘The Hobbit’ from the from the shelf in the den, before casting a few little balls of light in the fort to help it feel cozy.
After he got everything situated, he held out a hand to Harry, wiggling his fingers.

“Draco,” Harry said softly, brushing his thumb over Draco’s knuckles, “Tell me what you’re thinking.”
“That I love you,” he said.
“I love you, too,” Harry replied.
Draco’s breath hitched, “That you literally seem too good to be true and I-” he trailed off.
Harry waited, letting him form his thoughts.
“I’m always afraid,” he whispered. “Afraid that if I do the wrong thing or say the wrong thing, you’ll realize that you’re too good for me or that I’m more trouble than I’m worth.”

“Don’t.” Draco growled, turning back to the tomato on the cutting board.
“But babe,” Harry whinged as he took a step closer.
Draco shook his head and kept his eyes on the task at hand, “Don’t do it,” he said.
It didn’t matter that he wasn’t looking at him, he could see him in his mind’s eye and his conviction was already wavering. It was impossible to resist Harry’s puppy eyes.
Harry hooked his chin over Draco’s shoulder and wrapped his arms around his waist, “You always have fun,” he said.
“That’s not even true.”
Harry huffed, the warm puff of his breath ghosting over Draco’s neck. “We’ll just look, I won’t even touch, I promise.”
He leaned back into Harry’s embrace, “That’s definitely not true.”
“Draco, please?”

“The things we lose have a way of coming back to us,” Luna started.
Harry sighed, “You’ve told me that before. That time you had your shoes stolen.”
“And I did find them again,” she said, as she poured Harry a cup of tea.
Miserably he sipped his dandelion tea, feeling glum about the tea and about his prospects. “I think a boyfriend is a bit different, don’t you?”
“You’ll see,” she said confidently moments before there was a knock at the door. “I wonder who that could be,” she murmured as she floated over to the entrance of her home.
“Luna, I’m terribly sorry to bother you,” a voice started and Harry couldn’t quite believe his ears. “It’s Sal,” he said, sounding concerned.
“Bring her in,” Luna said easily, making her way back to the kitchen as she called, “Could you clear the table, Harry?” just as Draco Malfoy stepped through the doorway.

Draco returned to see that their once empty waiting room had filled up. He cursed Jeremiah under his breath and started seeing patients.
He was in the middle of an intake for with a woman whose finger nails were growing nearly an inch a minute when the door opened and Harry Potter staggered through carrying a child, both of them covered in blood. “Help,” Potter gasped, eyes glued to the boy in his arms who wasn’t moving.
Draco was on his feet in an instant, “Move,” he commanded the people milling about, using a shield charm to bump them out of his way. “This way,” he told Potter, gesturing to the first room with an open door.

“It’s never going to happen, Pansy,” Draco said, rolling his eyes at her.
She sipped her drink but continued to stare across the bar at the man who was all but holding court, regaling people with the tales of his quidditch prowess. “But he’s so yummy,” she replied, looking him up and down salaciously.
“He doesn’t even play for your team,” Draco groaned, swallowing a larger-than-polite swallow of his whiskey.
“I don’t play for his either, but I might make an exception,” she said, nodding toward him once more and Draco didn’t even bother to look at the other man. He already saw him at practice everyday, already saw him at their games, at their after parties. He saw him when he closed his eyes to go to sleep.
“Hey,” the voice that went along with his face said and Draco jumped, turning to see Harry standing there with that easy, lopsided grin on his face.
He swallowed his drink too quickly and ended up coughing and spluttering. Perfect.

“Do you think he has amnesia?” Blaise murmured to Draco under his breath.
But Draco couldn’t even hear him, he was too busy staring at Harry Potter, who had plopped down at the table across from him.
“Can you pass the salt?” Potter said as he combed his damp curls back off his face.
Draco just stared at him.
After a moment, Potter cleared his throat, glancing around at the four Slytherins who’d returned for 8th year. “Sorry,” he pointed to the salt shaker, “I said could you pass the salt?”
Draco reached the shaker and passed it over to Potter.
“Cheers,” the other boy said, smiling at him before shaking it onto his eggs.
“Right,” Draco said, shaking his head, “I’m sorry but what the actual fuck are you doing here, Potter?”

Summary
Draco slipped back into bed as quietly and as stealthily as he could manage but Harry had always been a light sleeper and he’d felt it when Draco had gotten out of bed and he awoke once more now that the other man was joining him once more.
He rolled over as Draco settled in next to him, curling protectively around Draco and pressing a soft, sleepy kiss to the back of his neck, “Where’d you go?” Harry mumbled sleepily, nuzzling against the downy soft hair at the base of Draco’s neck.
“Just to the loo, love,” he whispered back, rubbing his fingers soothingly over Harry’s forearm that was wrapped around his waist.
It was a long time for the loo, Harry thought to himself, holding Draco a little tighter and wondering if he’d had a nightmare. He debated trying to talk to Draco about it, then decided to tackle that in the morning when they weren’t so sleepy. “Missed you,” Harry murmured.
And the last thing he noticed before he drifted off was something that felt and sounded suspiciously like a sigh of relief from the other man.

“Ouch,” Harry gasped. “Ouch, ouch, ouch! Draco fucking stop!”
Draco ignored him (and the way Harry’s pain made his gut twist uncomfortably) “I know,” he said, glancing up at his auror partner from the large gash on his thigh. “I know it hurts,” he repeated.
“Just cast a bloody episkey,” Harry hissed at him as Draco tied off the fabric around his thigh.
Draco rolled his eyes, “I can’t. You know I can’t,” he added. “We’re in a warehouse that is full of things that are highly sensitive to magic. We can’t use magic, hence the knife wound in the first place.”
“Then let’s get out of here,” Harry said.
“We cant.” he repeated. “Harry, pain is making you stupid.” Then he amended, “Well even more stupid than usual.”
“Oh good, let’s add insult to injury,” Harry grumbled.
Draco rolled his eyes, “You’re fine. Or at least you will be.”

Summary
Draco checked his suit one more time, making sure that everything was smoothed and tucked, not a wrinkle in sight. Blowing out a nervous breath, he stepped inside the arcade, admiring the marble arches of the building his lover had chosen for the London debut of his solo exhibition.
He wandered through, pausing to look at the various rooms through each of the arches to admire the photographs that had been taken. Pictures from the Fairy Pools in the Isle of Skye in Scotland, Zhangye Danxia Geopark in China, Cherry Blossom Festivals in Japan, Machu Picchu in Peru, Great Ocean Road in Australia, the thermal pools of Pamukkale in Turkey, the Piton volcanoes in St. Lucia, Banff National Park in Canada, the beautiful buildings in Oia village in Santorini in Greece, the beaches of Bora Bora in French Polynesia, and the terraced hills and winding stream of Mù Cang Chải in Vietnam.
As he wandered into the final room at the head of the exhibit, he froze in his tracks so suddenly that the person who’s been following along behind him ran right into him.

“Draco!” Ron shouted across the room packed full of Weasleys celebrating Christmas.
He looked up at him and raised an eyebrow in question, he’d long since learned his lesson about trying to shout across a room full of Weasleys.
“Come give me a hand!” he called before entering the kitchen.
He pressed a kiss to Harry’s temple by way of goodbye, and Harry squeezed his knee, continuing his conversation with Charlie about the new baby dragons that had just hatched.
Making his way through the crowded living room and dining room was no easy feat, as every few steps someone stopped him to wish him a Merry Christmas and to ask him how his case load was with Ron.
When he reached the kitchen Ron was pouring champagne into glasses, “Can you get them onto the serving trays?” he asked.
“You’re asking her?” he asked then, unable to hide his grin.

Summary
The postman delivering it seemed to be a bit troubled by it (Draco enjoyed watching the muggles through the window of their new home; they were a little fascinating and ever so strange). But after another moment of inspecting it, he did deposit it in front of the door and ring their doorbell before leaving once more.
Harry, who’d been in the kitchen trying to perfect muggle bread, came out when he heard the doorbell.
“It’s a package,” Draco informed him as he hopped out of the window seat.
His husband startled, “I’ve told you,” he chided, “everyone can see you when you sit in the window.”
“Only if they deign to look,” Draco said, sticking his tongue out and opening the door. “Ooh!” he exclaimed, looking at the faces that were stuck all over the box.
Harry sighed, “That’s a bit overkill. I’m sure our postman thinks we’re mad.”
“I think it looks nice,” Draco replied firmly. “Wait,” he said, turning the box over in his hands, “They aren’t moving.”

Summary
Malfoy inhaled but McGonagall cut him off, “I think I know what can solve this. Neither of you will believe the other unless you’ve experienced what their life is like,” she mused. Then she rose from her desk and went to a cabinet filled with potions, “Here we are,” she murmured as she picked up one that looked suspiciously like a polyjuice potion. “Give me one of your hairs, both of you.”
Harry swallowed nervously but didn’t dare disobey. Malfoy must have felt the same because he plucked a hair from his head and handed it over as well.
“This particular potion is brewed to last for about three hours,” she said. “I’ll expect you both in my office at that time,” she informed them as she measured out two portions. “In the meantime, I want you to go and experience what life is like for the other. I’ll inform Miss Parkinson, Mr. Weasley, and Miss Granger; we’ll keep the three of them out of this experiment.”
“You can’t be serious, Professor!” Harry protested.
“I’m quite serious, Mr. Potter. It’s either this or I make the two of you walk around holding hands during every waking moment for the next week.”

Summary
There Draco stood at the bar across the room, her shoulder length blond hair in shiny, loose curls that already looked a bit tousled like someone had been running their fingers through it. She was wearing a tight black dress that emphasized the curve of her arse, long legs and arms dusted in fine glitter that made her skin glow incandescent in the dim lighting. A pair of high heels elongated her legs even further and Harry was gone on the sight of her ankles of all things; ankles shouldn’t be sexy but her’s definitely were.
When she spun around with drink in hand, the light caught on the gold eye make up she was wearing, making her look even more otherworldly. She smirked, teeth even whiter against the blood red backdrop of her lipstick, and then she winked at him.
He’d known, of course, that Draco was genderfluid, after catching him staring a few too many times Draco had said, ‘out with it, Potter. Ask.’ And so he had.
But he’d only ever seen Draco at work in sharp trousers and dress shirts; in long, flowing skirts and tank tops; in jeans and t-shirts; in dresses with bold floral prints. Draco looked gorgeous in literally everything but nothing had prepared Harry for the sight of her in club apparel.

Summary
Every so often they had a night where they just stayed in.
They sat on the sofa and talked while they drank their way through multiple bottles of wine, and they just generally enjoyed their lives together.
On one such evening, Harry had gotten up off the couch to go find something to eat and hadn’t come back. With a put out sigh, Draco got up off the couch and found Harry standing in the kitchen staring at the freezer like it held the answer to all of life’s questions.
“What are you doing?” he asked, wrapping his arms around Harry’s neck and pressing a sloppy kiss to his soft skin there.
“Looking at the ice cream.”
Draco leaned over and scooped up the carton of cookies and cream, “This ice cream?”
Harry’s gaze tracked the container, “Yes.”
Harry was weird about food sometimes, Draco didn’t question it. Draco pressed another kiss to his shoulder before he turned and set the ice cream out on the counter, then grabbed a spoon from the drawer for him and set it on the counter next to the tub of ice cream. He pressed a quick kiss to Harry’s cheek, “Loo,” he murmured before leaving.
When he got back, Harry was still standing in the kitchen, staring at the ice cream.

“Oh, Draco!” Harry sing-songed as he slid into the other man’s office. “Do you know what today is?”
“The 23rd of August, if I’m not mistaken,” he drawled without looking up from the Ministry form.
Harry leaned on his desk, “And do you know why it’s important?”
“I don’t believe that I do,” Draco replied casually, checking his notes before going back to the form.
“It’s been-”
“99 days since May 14th,” he said. “99 days is not what was agreed upon.”
Harry groaned and plopped down in his chair, “Isn’t it close enough?”
“No.”
He grinned, “I thought you might say that.”

Touch Starved by drarrily-we-row-along (fearfully_beautifully_made)

Summary
Harry didn’t let people touch him.
At least not outside of the Weasleys, Hermione, and occasionally Luna because she doesn’t have any sense of personal boundaries.
It’s not that it was intentional, exactly. It’s just that he didn’t really trust people’s motives anymore. He'd gotten a bit jaded in the past two years following the war, people never seemed to be genuinely interested in him. Until Draco Malfoy.
Harry had never done drugs but he imagined that it must feel similar to the way his entire body lit up whenever the other man touched him. Even something as simple as the way he slipped his fingers through Harry’s while they were walking down the sidewalk sent Harry's brain into a fizzle of ecstatic contentment.
“Are you even listening to me?” Draco asked, interrupting Harry’s musings.
“I want to say yes,” Harry replied, leaning his shoulder against Draco’s, “And I was, but then-”
“I bored you to death with my talk about potion’s theory,” Draco sighed.
“No,” he answered quickly. “No, I love to hear you talk about things you’re excited about, it’s just…” he trailed off, not quite sure how to say it. “Just,” he huffed at himself, “you started holding my hand.”

Summary
Harry went to a muggle animal shelter and spent the morning playing with the cats and getting to know them before eventually deciding on a fluffy little black cat with white paws and a white tip at the end of her tail.
They told him that he could change her name, her previous owners had named her Ziva, but he thought it suited her so he kept it. She was a sweet little cat and Harry started wearing hoodies more often, turning them around backwards so he could put her in the hood while he worked.
She loved cuddling up in the hood against his chest and she spent most of the day sleeping, and the nights curled up by Harry’s shoulder.
That was until one night when Harry woke up to find that she was no longer sleeping with her back pressed to the side of his head. He sat up in bed, anxiety blossoming sharp in his chest as he lifted the blankets to search for her.
When his bed turned up empty he got up and started searching.
Fortunately he didn’t have to look any further than the common room. As he stumbled down the stairs and into the room he saw that Malfoy was sprawled out across the sofa with Ziva sleeping curled up on his chest.

Summary
Draco was a master of the dramatic exit.
When he and Harry fought (which they did. A lot.) he loved to storm out of the room. He’d slam every single door he walked through, get outside, and apparate a few blocks away to stew for a while.
It was all quite cathartic, really.
He was already anticipating the sweet relief of slamming the door, the satisfying way his entire body would feel the wood vibrating as the door banged shut, when Harry said, “Don’t leave.”
The comment took him a bit by surprise, he was planning on storming out but hadn’t even stood up yet.
“Draco, please don’t leave,” he repeated.
He stood up, spun on his heel and stomped out the door. Slamming first their bedroom door, then the front door on his way out.
But when he got to the end of the walk that led up to their house he realized that something didn’t feel quite right. There wasn’t any of the normal vitriol fueling the flame in his gut, slamming the doors hadn’t felt quite the same.
Hands on his hips, he turned and looked at their home for a long moment before stomping back inside.

There were too many things racing through Draco’s mind as he worked this case. Children were missing and the clock was ticking; it felt like there was nothing that Draco could do right. Everywhere he looked he hit another wall.
A knock on his office door drew his attention and he looked up from the file to see his boyfriend standing in the doorway with a covered plate of food. “Hey you,” Harry said, voice soft and warm; his words wrapped right around his heart, soothing something broken and jagged inside of him.
He opened his mouth and it took him a few tries but he eventually got the word out a whispered, “Hi."
“Take a break?” Harry asked, stepping inside of his door, “Just a little one. I’m sure you haven’t eaten all day.”
He cast a quick tempus charm and cursed under his breath. “Alright,” he said with a little nod.

“Yes?” Draco asked, calm as anything as he wandered into the kitchen, book in hand.
He glared at him, “Why is the refrigerator full of cantaloupe?”
“I went shopping,” Draco replied, “Like you asked,” he added as he turned the page of his book as though he’d been reading all along.
Harry sighed, “This is about the laundry, isn’t it?”
Draco pulled out a container of cantaloupe and popped a piece into his mouth, “I’ve no idea what you’re talking about.”
“I said I was sorry,” Harry groaned. “You know I’m allergic to cantaloupe. It makes my mouth itchy.”
“Oh, I’m sorry,” Draco replied, biting into another piece of cantaloupe, “I forgot.”

“Perfect,” Harry replied. “I take mine black and he takes his with two creams, three sugars, and a dash of cinnamon.”
The barista, Matt according to his name tag, smiled, “You got it.”
As he went to preparing their coffees Draco glared at Harry and said, “Why do you always do that?”
“What?” Harry asked, amusement crystal clear in his voice. “Order you your coffee the way you actually like it and not the way you think is respectable?” he asked, grinning cheekily at Draco.
Damn him for knowing that. “No,” he said. “You never correct people.”

The house was completely dark when Draco entered, every curtain drawn, every candle extinguished. He sighed and blew out every negative thought he had, he couldn’t afford them, and took a fortifying breath.
“You’re a werewolf, not a vampire, you know?” he called.
He heard a groan from somewhere in the vicinity of the living room and cast a dim lumos as he set off that way.
“Sod off,” Harry called.
“No can do, I’m afraid,” he replied cheerfully as he made his way into the living room, avoiding furniture that had been thrown on its side, backs slashed and stuffing spilling everywhere. He kept his face carefully blank as he took out his wand and returned the living room to its proper state.
“Why bother?” Harry groused, “I’m just going to keep doing it.”
He came over to the couch and sat beside him in the dip of his hip.
Harry turned his face into the arm of the couch to avoid looking at Draco.
“Hey,” he murmured, gently trailing his fingers through the curls at the base of Harry’s neck. “I know this is hard-”
“No you don’t,” Harry said.

Summary
Harry was unabashedly obsessed with Draco Malfoy.
He’d decided that he was Harry fucking Potter and he could like whomever he wanted to like and to hell with what everyone else thought.
Draco Malfoy was sitting in the corner of the library, reading a book that looked like it was older than time, and Harry couldn’t stop staring at him. The sun was streaming in and catching in his blonde hair and turning it gold and with the dust motes drifting around him, he looked ethereal.
“Are you listening to a word that I am saying?” Hermione asked him.
“No,” he said honestly.
Ron snorted and Harry glanced at the two of them in time to see them both rolling their eyes.
“It’s not my fault,” Harry protested. “He’s just so…” he trailed off, looking back over at the other boy who was lost in his book, “pretty,” he said helplessly.
“So you’ve mentioned,” Hermione said.
“About a hundred times,” Ron added.
He groaned, “But it’s not just that, is it? He’s also all,” he shrugged, “Soft.”

“No!” Harry said, shaking his head fervently before he started coughing.
Draco was up out of his seat in a heartbeat, bringing Harry the glass of water from the side table and easing him back against the mattress, “Relax.”
He glared at Draco as he tried to regulate his breathing, his heart thudding and tripping disconcertingly in his chest. When he finally managed to get a breath in after taking a drink, he tried to find that calm, quiet place inside of him before he said, “It isn’t worth the risk.”
“It’s not your decision,” Draco replied. Then as Harry opened his mouth to argue he added, “Stay calm please, love.”
Harry took a slow deep breath, controlling his breathing so that he wouldn’t start coughing again. “I won’t accept it.” He could do that, he could tell the healers that he wouldn’t accept the spell. Just let the curse he’d been hit with kill him.
He smiled at Harry, “Salazar, I love you,” he murmured, “You’re such a stubborn arse,” he added, pressing a kiss to Harry’s forehead.

Summary
“Get back here!” Harry hissed as he stumbled off after Draco, across the front lawn and down toward the great lake.
Draco laughed, tipping his head back in his merriment and Harry couldn’t help but admire the way the moonlight gleamed against his shiny blonde hair. “Why don’t you make me, Professor Potter?” he called over his shoulder. “What are you going to do? Take away house points?”
He laughed, too, he couldn’t help himself as he ran, trying to catch up to his absolutely insane partner. Draco slipped into the trees around the lake, continuing to run until they were a good distance away from the castle.
Abruptly the other man stopped and turned to face Harry as he tugged his shirt off.
“What are you doing?” Harry asked, his fingers already reaching for the other man.
“I’m going to go for a swim,” he said with a grin.
“In the Great Lake, in the middle of the night?” Harry yelped.
“Yep,” Draco replied, popping the ‘p’ and making Harry want to grab him and kiss him. But Draco darted back again out of Harry’s reach, tossing his shirt and hitting Harry right in the face.

“Come on,” Harry begged, “Let’s take Teddy to the zoo for his birthday. Please, Draco,” he added, batting his eyelashes and pouting his lips.
“I don’t know,” Draco replied thoughtfully, “It’s a muggle zoo?”
Harry nodded, “But I’ll be there and I’ll do everything with the money and ticketing,” he promised.
“They seem a little dangerous, don’t they?” Draco asked. “He’s only four.”
“Dangerous?” Harry asked. “A zoo?”
Draco nodded fervently, “Yes! Didn’t you tell me a story about how a boa constrictor got loose?”
He laughed, “Well, yes, but that was my own accidental magic because Dudley shoved me. It’s not like there are wild animals just wandering around everywhere.”
“Well, sure,” Draco conceded, “but just the other day Teddy’s accidental magic was spinning grapes around Andromeda’s dining room like a tornado.”
Harry pouted at him, “please Draco. The zoo is magical for little kids.”
“You do realize that the entire world is magical for Teddy because he lives in the wizarding world,” Draco drawled and Harry groaned.

Summary
The last time he’d seen Harry Potter, the other boy had been standing in the Great Hall looking sad and defeated, even though only a very short time before that he’d defeated the Dark Lord. Still, he’d been able to understand why this couldn’t feel like a true victory.
That had been three days ago and in the meantime his parents had been arrested and he’d been arrested. The aurors hadn’t been very gentle with them, Draco had tried to obey and avoid getting hurt.
He couldn’t say that he was surprised, really. He’d wanted Harry to win, obviously, but he hadn’t had any hope that things would turn out alright for him.
The days had been terrible but they’d had nothing on the farce of a trial that he’d been marched into. With hardly thirty seconds deliberation Draco was sentenced to life in Azkaban and he hardly could hear the sound of the commotion outside the door over the sound of his beating heart and his panicked breathing.
“Let me in!” a voice that he could hardly believe he was hearing shouted. “Stand aside!”
And a moment later the door was flying open and Harry Potter was shoving his way through, righteous anger on his face making him radiant as the sun.

Summary
Through several drinks and dinner, Harry kept a careful distance from Draco; not too much that people would think that they weren’t friends and not too little that people might suspect that they were something more. He waited, watching for the opportune moment, until Draco stood up and headed toward the loo.
Heart beating just a little quicker, Harry waited thirty seconds before making his excuses and heading toward the bathroom as well. When he came in there was a third person in the bathroom using the urinal but Harry could see the toes of Draco’s shoes under the door of one of the stalls.
He made his way to a second urinal while he waited for the other man to leave. After the other man had washed his hands and left, Harry washed his hands and then locked the door.
Draco stepped out of the stall and the soft, unguarded smile on his face stole Harry’s breath. “Hey, you,” he murmured, stepping up to Harry and pressing him back against the sink.

Summary
Draco slammed the door of their office right in Harry’s face.
And Harry had to take several slow, deep breaths to calm himself down before he opened the door and entered. Magic was prickling hot and bright under his skin and he had the feeling that cursing Draco within an inch of his life wouldn’t help anything.
After a few moments, when the magic had sizzled low inside of his belly, he opened the door and stepped through.
He was surprised that he wasn’t immediately berated. Normally there would be yelling, there was nothing Draco loved so much as yelling and fighting when the adrenaline was flooding from their bodies.
Harry stood there for another heartbeat, waiting, and when nothing happened he said, “Err, what are you working on?”
Without looking up Draco replied, “My letter of resignation.”

“And then!” Draco shouted, “Then, Mrs. Fibblewinks demanded that I not only fetch her cat out of the tree but that I bring in her laundry off the line!” He collapsed onto the chair across from Harry.
He couldn’t help but feel sorry for the other man, he’d really had a bad string of days while Harry had been on desk duty healing up from an injury earlier in the week. “Does someone need a cuddle?” Harry asked without really thinking about it.
Draco froze, his mouth popping open in surprise and his cheeks coloring slightly.
Harry replayed what he’d just said and felt a wave of mortification wash over him, “Godric. Sorry,” he said, shaking his head. “Teddy spent the weekend and we’re working on expressing our emotions in a not hurtful way.”
The other man relaxed a bit with a little chuckle. “Ah,” he replied. “That makes sense.”

“Malfoy,” a voice called as his hair was pushed out of his face and his chin was tilted slightly. “Malfoy,” the voice repeated.
Draco was quite certain he must be hallucinating, there was no way that the person touching him could be who it sounded like.
“Draco,” that voice said again, “Wake up.”
His eyes fluttered open and he groaned in pain as the light seared through his retinas and straight into his brain.
“Hey,” Harry bloody Potter said.
He opened his mouth to reply and spit out a bit of blood.
“Merlin,” Potter said, “Do you think you can stand?” he asked, hands sliding under him to help him sit up.
“Yeah,” he grunted, waving the other boy off as he focused on not vomiting as pain lanced through his head again. “Yes. I’m fine. Thank you for your assistance, Potter.”
The other boy huffed a laugh, “Sure. Come on. Let me help you get to Madam Pomfrey.”
He shook his head, “Don’t let me keep you from your important life,” Draco said as he stood up and reached out to steady himself on the wall.
“Draco,” he said.
Looking through his swollen eye, he tried to glare at the other boy. “Harry,” he parroted.

Harry let out a contented groan and pressed kisses down Draco’s spine. “Godric,” he murmured, “You are the most extraordinary-” he broke off, trying to come up with the right word.
Draco stretched underneath him, “Are you planning on finishing that thought at any point?”
“I don’t know,” he chuckled. “You’re everything, Draco.”
The other man laughed and Harry basked in it like the warm glow of a fire, “You’re ridiculous.” He rolled out from under Harry and moved to standing, stretching again once he stood.
“You’re fantastic,” Harry replied, rolling onto his side to watch the other man get dressed.
Draco turned and gave him a little smile, pressing a kiss to his forehead and making Harry’s heart tilt sideways in his chest. He moved away and grabbed his pants off the floor. “You’re sweet,” he said softly. “No charge for you,” he added with a wink.
He rolled his eyes, “You’re welcome to stay, you know.”
“I don’t stay over with the people I sleep with,” he replied for what was probably the dozenth time.

Summary
Harry hadn’t had very many good birthdays.
Somehow, in spite of that fact, he’d imagined that his 19th birthday would be different. Last year, on his 18th birthday, when they’d spent the day rebuilding Hogwarts, Harry had reflected on his many terrible birthdays and told himself that 18 would be the last bad one. He’d told himself that on his 19th birthday there would be a party, he’d have his friends around him, and maybe just for that one day, they could forget everything bad and just have fun.
But now he was single, living in muggle London, without any friends nearby, and without any happy plans in place. He decided that he had to do something today, there must be something that could make his birthday not quite so glum.
He set off toward a coffee shop a few blocks from his house and ran smack into a door as a woman was coming out. She apologized but Harry was too distracted by what he saw inside of the store. From where he stood he could see reptiles, and birds, and he thought he could make out cats in the corner, and somewhere there was the faint sound of puppies yipping.

“I can’t believe this actually worked,” Ron said as he stared at the line of customers that was out the door and halfway down the sidewalk.
“You’re starting to sound like your better half,” Harry teased as he made a perfect latte for the customer at the end of the counter.
Ron laughed, “I’m sorry but I just couldn’t have imagined that a coffee shop would work out in Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes.” He shrugged and snagged one of the scones Harry had made that morning, “I assumed that people would have thought we were trying to pull something.”
“We need to hire some help,” he said as Lee sent another half a dozen drink orders in his direction.
“Right,” Ron said. “I’ll post something.”
—————-
Five days later, after the shop had closed, Harry started going through applications. “Seriously, Ron?” he asked. “Is this really the applicant pool? There are dozens of applications here.”
Ron shrugged, “What did you expect?” he asked through a mouthful of pastry. “You’re Harry Potter.”
“This application says Draco Malfoy,” Harry said, brow furrowed as he read through the application in his hands.

“Tell us about the case, Auror Potter!”
“How did you catch Hollister?”
“What’s the status on your relationship with Ginny Weasley?”
“Smile!”
He watched as Harry carefully put on a mask of indifference, making his face pleasant and amiable in the way that only someone who has spent years in the public eye is able to do.
Harry held up a hand, “Thank you for your interest in this case. We’re asking that you respect the Griffiths Family’s privacy as they go through the aftermath of this harrowing ordeal. Alden Hollister has been brought to justice; I will leave it to the court reporter to give you more of the details.” Then, “If you’ll excuse us please. Auror Malfoy and I have had a very difficult few days and we’re long overdue for some rest,” he added, chuckling amiably at them. “Thank you,” he nodded. “Good night.”
Without waiting for anything else, Draco reached out and grasped Harry’s elbow and apparated them out of there and back to the apparition point just outside the Ministry. They had to apparate home separately, Merlin knew the press would have a field day if they knew the full truth about the nature of their relationship.

“Come on,” Pansy said as she sipped her pink cosmo, “Sure, pulling fit blokes and having anonymous sex has it’s appeal.”
“Merlin, Pans,” he grumbled, raising a hand to the bartender for another gin and tonic, “I am not nearly drunk enough for this conversation.”
“I’m just saying,” she said, spreading her hands and giving him a cheeky little grin, “sex with random strangers is good but there’s something to be said for the intimacy that comes from knowing and loving the person you’re sleeping with.”
He groaned and resisted the urge to cover his ears, but only just. There was only one person Draco might consider monogamy with and he’d been in love with him since he was eleven. To distract from his own thoughts he said, “Gross. Your love affair with Ginerva is repulsive.”
“It’s not some sordid affair, you arse. We’re married!”
“Don’t remind me,” he groused. “We’re always surrounded by bloody Gryffindors now.”

“Uncle Harry!” Teddy shouted as he came spilling through the floo. “Uncle Harry!”
Draco looked up from the book he was reading with an amused grin at his nephew, it seemed like only yesterday that Teddy had come flying through the floo for the very first time, laughing like he’d been told a wonderful joke. It was more than a decade ago now, though; it was hard to believe that the little boy whom he’d loved since a few months after his birth was almost 21 now.
“Uncle Har-” he started again before Draco interrupted.
“He’s not here, bean,” he said. “He’s at a meeting with the Minister.”
Teddy visibly deflated, “Do you think I could interrupt him? It’s an emergency.”
“What kind of emergency?” he asked as he closed his book. Knowing Teddy, it could be anything from having a finger very nearly severed to needing help picking out an outfit for school.
He groaned and made his way over to Draco, dragging his feet across the floor and plopping down beside him, “I need help learning how to make something for dinner for a date.”

“There’s something weird going on with Draco Malfoy.”
Ron and Hermione let out twin groans before Hermione said, “Harry, really-”
“I’m serious!” he protested.
His best friends shared a look before Ron tried, “Listen, mate, maybe you should just ask him out and-”
“Ask him out?” he asked incredulously. Not because he didn’t think that Malfoy was attractive but because this was not about that; this was serious. “There’s something-”
Hermione covered her ears, “I can’t listen to one more word about Draco Malfoy.”
“But-”
Ron shook his head, “Sorry mate.”
“Fine.” He nodded once and stood up from the lunch table, “I’m going to figure it out myself.”
He didn’t have to be looking at the other two of them to know that they were rolling their eyes but he just couldn’t help himself. The familiar feeling of burning curiosity was heavy in his gut so he left lunch and headed back to the book store that Malfoy owned in Diagon (and that Harry frequented far more than was warranted for someone who had hardly any time to read).

Harry stared at the creamy expanses of Draco’s skin, so fair against the cerulean blue of Harry’s bed sheets. In the golden hues of the soft, early morning light spilling in through the window made Draco’s blonde hair look like spun gold.
And while the other man was no angel, he certainly looked like one lying there in Harry’s bed.
“You’re staring again, Potter,” Draco mumbled sleepily without opening his eyes.
“Yes.” He reached up and brushed the hair out of Draco’s face, “if you could see yourself, you’d want to stare too.”
The corner of his mouth tipped up in that soft, open grin that he only had when he was still half asleep; Harry was quite partial to that expression.
He leaned in and kissed him, tasting the smile on his lips.

Summary
The problem was that the entire house was grey.
Not metaphorically speaking, of course. No, Harry was actually a little in love with the house itself. It was a cozy little two bedroom home with a nice big kitchen that had an island in the center and a breakfast nook in the corner by the window. And the bathroom had a giant bathtub for soaking and relaxing. The living room had bookshelves built into the walls and a cozy fireplace that Harry couldn’t wait to use in the fall and winter.
Metaphorically speaking, the house was sunshine-yellow. Harry adored it.
But every wall in the house was literally grey. His realtor had assured him that grey walls were very fashionable and that he’d grow to like them in time if he just gave them a chance.
So he’d given them a chance. He waited to fall in love with the walls for three whole days before he decided that he simply couldn’t take it anymore.
He went to the little muggle hardware store down the street and bought seven gallons of paint.

The thing about working with Harry Potter was that you never know what to expect.
Potter was a good teacher, Draco would give him that. It wasn’t just the fame that made the kids like him; he really cared about them and they could tell.
He was also always coming up with crazy schemes and ideas.
“What are you doing?” Draco called to Potter who was on his broom, hanging the corner of what appeared to be a giant sheet on the wall of the castle.
Potter looked down and grinned at him, “Drive in movie!” he called back before he went back to securing the corner.
“What?”
“Hold on,” he shouted before finishing the corner and flying back down, landing next to Draco. “I’m setting everything up for a drive in movie,” he said, “We’ll just have to forgo the cars.”
“What?” he asked again because honestly none of those words made sense.
Potter laughed, the chuckle warm and fond, “Just wait and see. I’ll even let you share my blanket,” he added with a wink as he sauntered off leaving Draco just as confused as ever.

Summary
Draco swallowed down another glass of cheap fire whiskey, it burned all the way down and left his throat feeling bloodied and raw but at least it was a distraction from the dull ache in his chest that simply wouldn’t subside.
And really he ought to have known better. It’s not as though Harry had ever told him that they were exclusive or that they were even dating.
He never said anything about a future together. Harry- no not Harry, he had to stop thinking of him like that- Potter had never said that he wasn’t going to go back to Ginny Weasley and the idyllic life that the Wizarding World was desperate to see him have.
He took another shot of fire whiskey and tried to get the image of Ginny Weasley’s lips pressed against Potter’s, her arms wrapped around his neck, out of his head. His chest ached as he remembered the way Potter’s eyes were closed, a hand fluttering at her waist.
“Idiot,” he muttered to himself, he couldn’t believe he’d let himself get so invested. “Stupid, stupid, stupid.”
As he was reaching for the bottle again there was a frantic pounding on his door. “Draco!”
He groaned and picked up the bottle, forgoing the glass entirely and bringing it straight to his lips.

Summary
Harry was always alone. It sounded a bit dramatic, a little pitiable, and more than a little untrue.
He had pub nights with large groups of people, went and took those wine and paint classes with Luna and Ginny every other week, a cooking class with Ron and Pansy on the off week. He met George, Ron, and Seamus for lunch on Thursday afternoons. Hermione dragged him to a book club with Draco once a month. He met Hermione for breakfast on Tuesdays and had dinner with Ron and Hermione every Monday (and often Fridays, too). Neville invited him for tea every Sunday and there was always someone different there with them.
Still, there was something that always separated him from his friends. All of his friends were buying houses, getting married, having babies, getting pets (or in Neville’s case carnivorous plants). And he was just… stuck.
“Well, well,” a smooth baritone voice said behind him, interrupting his sulk at the bar of the Leaky, and a smile tilted up the corner of Harry’s mouth against his will. “If it isn’t the savior himself.”
Harry rolled his eyes. “Are you going to sit down?” he asked, glancing over his shoulder at the other man.
Silver eyes gleamed in amusement, “that depends.”

“No!” his Auror partner shouted before letting out an unbearably loud hiccup, dodging Draco as he tried to catch him.
“Get your arse back here,” he growled, chasing the other man around their desks.
Harry shook his head, pausing behind a chair and evaluating which direction he was going to go. “You’ll never take me alive.”
“You’re being a child.”
In the split second that Harry froze to let out another ridiculously loud hiccup, Draco freed his wand from his holster.
“Incarcerous!” he shouted and he watched with satisfaction as Harry was bound up in ropes and fell to the ground like a tree. He spun his wand around in a ritzy little circle before putting it back in it’s holster and sauntering over to Harry. “Well, well,” he said, “How the mighty have fallen.”

Ron made a face, “They’re probably junk,” he replied.
“What are?” Harry asked as he emerged from the creepy closet off of the kitchen, covered in spider webs.
“These records,” Ron said, kicking the box with his toe.
“Oh,” Harry said, making his way over, “Were they Sirius’, do you reckon?”
“It says ‘Lily Evans’ on the side,” Draco pointed out.
“Probably junk either way,” Ron said.
Draco Malfoy had spent more than half of his life in love with Harry Potter. He might not have called it love when he was young but the older he got, the more clear it became that he had been a lovesick idiot for most of his life. He’d spent a lifetime memorizing every detail of that face. So he couldn’t really be blamed for noticing the split second of hurt that flashed across Harry’s face before he nodded, “Yeah. You’re probably right. I’ll just run them out to the bin.”
"Let me," Draco said, before he'd fully formulated a plan. He wasn't sure what he was going to do, but he wasn't going to let them get binned.

“No,” Harry said, shaking his head. “Absolutely not.”
“But-”
“No,” he said, taking a step back from Draco like he was afraid of him even though Draco knew it was the opposite: Harry was afraid for him.
“You’ve gotten the dosage on the wolfsbane right, though,” he protested, “you’ll still be you.” And really they didn’t have any other options; they were pinned down on this case and they could only leave at certain times or they risked blowing the entire operation.
He shook his head, “You’re not staying with me when I transform on the full moon,” he said vehemently. “I’m not putting you in danger like that.”
“You’re no danger to me,” he said.
“You don’t know that!” Harry protested.
Draco stepped across the small space of the kitchen and took Harry’s hands in his, “You’re no danger to me,” he repeated.
Harry closed his eyes and his chin dropped down to rest on his chest as he took a breath, “Please,” he whispered. “Draco, I can’t,” he shook his head. “I’m afraid.”

“We’ve got to stop meeting like this,” Harry bloody Potter slurred from his bed in St. Mungos.
Draco ignored the bare, toned muscles of his torso (he was a professional after all) to focus on his left eye, which was swollen shut, and the three slashes from his left temple to his chin. The cuts ran across his lips, which probably accounted for the slurred speech. “Potter,” he said with a sigh, “You’ve got to stop getting yourself injured on cases.”
He shrugged a shoulder and Draco’s eyes were drawn to the movement and the smooth, delectable curve of his shoulder, “Who can blame me when the healers are as beautiful as you?” he asked, one of many little lines that always confused the hell out of Draco.
“You’re delusional,” he replied as he cast a series of diagnostic spells to get a better understanding of what he was looking at. “And you’re not wearing your glasses,” he added, “you’ve got no business calling anyone beautiful; you’re practically blind.”

“Draco?” Harry asked as he twisted his fingers in Draco’s hair.
He hummed, feeling too content and comfortable to use any actual words or even lift his head from where it was resting over Harry’s heart. Lightly he trailed his fingers over Harry’s rib cage in response.
“Do you think-” he broke off and Draco felt him swallow, “I want to tell my friends about us.”
He froze for a moment, unable to quite believe his ears.
“Or not,” he said hurriedly, “If you’re not-”
Draco sat up and pressed his lips to Harry’s because he knew it was the fastest way to get him to stop talking. And because he couldn’t quite believe that he would ever be someone that the other man would want to tell the world about, he’d never imagined Harry would be proud to be with him.
Harry sighed into the kiss, wrapping Draco tighter in his arms.
When Draco pulled back he said, “Do you mean it?”

Healer Kenner, a stern looking woman who reminded Harry very much of Professor McGonagall, ran diagnostic test after diagnostic test and then finally said, “Well, you’re bonded.”
“What?” Harry yelped.
Malfoy groaned, “You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.”
“Language, Auror Malfoy,” she tsked.
“Apologies.”
With a short nod, she continued, “The good news is that most of your discomfort can be alleviated by simple physical contact.”
“And the bad news?” Harry asked wryly.
“There’s nothing we can do to break the bond.”
“What?” Malfoy spat.
“Surely, there’s something-” Harry started.
She shook her head, “I’m afraid not. But it’s not permanent,” Healer Kenner added. “It’ll only last a month.”
“A month?!” Harry asked incredulously.
“Well it’s certainly better than forever,” Malfoy snarked, rubbing his hands over his face.
Harry wondered if Malfoy’s head hurt as much as his did. He certainly hoped so.
Basically what it says on the tin, loves. Enjoy!

Summary
April 16th was an appropriately stormy day.
Harry sat in the window seat, watching the rain batter the glass and cursing arranged marriages, cursing Astoria Greengrass, cursing Draco Malfoy, and cursing himself for falling for his auror partner. Everything about today was awful and he was vindictively glad that it was pouring on their wedding day. He hoped that their umbrella charm failed and Astoria’s lovely hair got soaked.
There was frantic pounding on the door and his head snapped up in surprise, heart jumping to his throat before he forced it back down. The knocking continued so he pulled himself up and headed to the front door. “I’m not in the mood today,” he said as he opened it.
“Hi.”
Harry stared at the man who was standing before him in white and gold dress robes, his long hair bound in an elaborate braid with gold ribbon woven through. Harry’s brittle heart shattered further.
“I’m getting married today,” Draco said.
He swallowed, pain slicing through him like a well placed diffindo. “I know,” he rasped.
“You,” Draco started, flicking his braid over his shoulder and licking his lower lip, “You’re supposed to be there.”
"Don't ask that of me," Harry managed.

Summary
“It’s just annoying,” Draco continued as he and Harry packed up for the night. “Literally every single party or brunch, I am hounded about when I’ll start dating someone.” He slammed his desk drawer closed, “I’m a bloody auror! I haven’t got time to date anyone,” he groaned. “And now I have this party tonight and I just know-”
“I’ll go with you,” Harry offered.
He broke off and stared at the other man. “What?”
“Yeah,” Harry said with a shrug, “I’ll go and be your pretend boyfriend, it would be easy to fake that we’re dating since we already know everything about each other.”
“But,” he started, tilting his head at the other man, “Then people will think we’re dating.”
“I thought that was the point?”
He stared at Harry, waiting for it to click. When no click was forthcoming he said “but then people would think you’re dating me.”
“Am I missing something here?”
He rolled his eyes, “I don’t think you quite understand what dating me entails.”
“Ah, need to be pampered, darling? Wined and dined? Roses on Tuesday and dinner on Friday nights? I could bring you coffee in the morning-”
“I- What?” Draco spluttered.

Summary
“Woah,” Harry said, jumping between Draco and the 35 foot Antipodean Opaleye that was rearing up her head preparing to protect her young. He let out a stream of parsletongue as he held out a hand to calm her.
And Draco watched with fascination, as he always did, at the way the dragon seemed to understand the other man even though Harry couldn’t understand them.
“Show off,” he teased when the dragon turned and made her way back to her nest.
Harry rolled his eyes, “Maybe don’t go traipsing over to her newborn hatchlings.”
“I can’t help it,” Draco said, craning his neck to get another peek, “They’re just so cute.”
The other man shook his head but Draco knew that he agreed, in the weeks to come Harry would spend more time cooing over the babies than Draco did just the way he did every time they came here for hatching season. “We should head back,” Harry said, “the sun’s on it’s way back down.”
“We still haven’t seen dad, though,” Draco said, searching the horizon once more for the smaller, faster Opaleye that ought to be coming back with food.

They were headed to get some ice cream and talking about the slumber party they were going to be hosting for half a dozen five year olds in a few days and all of the arrangements that had to be made when Harry’s mobile started to ring.
Draco watched curiously as Harry pulled it out of his pocket, “Hello?”
“Yes, hi, is this Mr. Potter Malfoy?” a woman asked.
He glanced at Draco and put the phone on speaker, “Yes, this is Harry.”
“Hi,” the woman said again, “This is Linda in the school office. We’re going to need you to come pick Cassie up.”
“What? Why?” Draco asked before Harry could reply. “Is everything alright?”
“Sorry, I have you on speaker so my husband could hear you.”
The woman chuckled and Draco looked ready to reach through the screen and strangle her. “Everything’s fine. She just had a little disagreement with one of the other students and is pretty upset. The head mistress will have a chat with you when you get here.”
“The head mistress!” Draco hissed.
Harry laid a hand on Draco’s shoulder. “Thanks for calling us. We’ll be right in.” He hung up and braced himself for the inevitable.

Summary
“I forfeit,” Harry groaned from where he was sitting at the other end of the couch under a pile of students’ papers. Draco looked over at him, smiling in spite of himself at the way Harry had shoved his glasses up into his hair to rub his eyes. “They win, I’m a terrible teacher and they’ve learned nothing.”
Draco rolled his eyes, “Don’t be dramatic.”
His boyfriend shoved several rolls of parchment on to the floor and out of the way so he’d have a clear view of Draco, and then he glared at him, “Draco, the question was ‘name the wispy, smoke like creature that lures travelers to their deaths by posing as guides in marshes’?”
“And?”
“Their answers? A mermaid,” he said, holding up one paper, “As though mermaids are going to pop out onto the land in marshes!”
“Well, you didn’t necessarily say they were coming on land.”
“I did say they were wispy and smoke like, though!” he protested. “And they know what mermaids look like! They’ve seen them in real life.”
Draco nodded his head, conceding the point.
“And this student,” Harry said, waving a second parchment, “wrote, werewolves.”
Draco bit the inside of his lips to keep from laughing but Harry didn’t seem to notice.

Summary
A shiver traced up his spine, a magical presence plucked at his consciousness, and Harry’s head snapped up, his eyes immediately finding Draco Malfoy’s in the sea of people. The corner of the other man’s mouth curved upward and one irritatingly perfect eyebrow raised at him.
Something exciting and dangerous flooded through Harry’s veins and heat pooled in his gut at the sight of him. Unconsciously, his tongue slipped out to wet his bottom lip and Draco’s smile widened, eyes turning to molten silver.
He moved around the boring woman he'd been listening to prattle on, only to find that Draco was no longer where he’d been when Harry had spotted him last. He started in that direction, needing to be near him, to feel the familiar cool, sparkling presence of the other man’s magic slip over his skin.
Anticipation left him feeling parched, like every cell in his body was shriveling up and in desperate need of something to quench the desire that cleaved him open. It triggered a strange sort of desperation that bubbled in his throat and made him resent anything or anyone that might stand between him and Draco.

Tinder Date Gone Wrong by drarrily-we-row-along (fearfully_beautifully_made)

Summary
This was a bad idea.
Harry knew it was a bad idea, had anything good ever come out of going on a Tinder Date?
But Luna and Ginny had been so persuasive last week when they’d been sitting around that cozy little table in their kitchen drinking sake that Luna had brought back with her from her recent trip to Japan to study Godric only knew which creature.
And could Harry really be blamed for believing them? When he was sitting there and watching Luna lovingly braid flowers into Ginny’s hair while they talked? When they had such a cozy little home and were obviously so happy together? Who could really blame him for reaching out to grasp at happiness when he felt so alone?
One drink, he told himself. He could handle one drink and then he’d politely excuse himself for the evening. No one said that you had to hook up with the bloke you’d only just met. Right?
Harry was steadily peeling the label off his beer and contemplating how big of an arse it would make him if he just disappeared and stood the other guy up when there was a quiet, posh, baritone asking, “Daniel?”
And Harry would have recognized that voice anywhere, in any circumstance, he whirled around, “Malfoy?”

“Look at him,” Draco said to Pansy, tipping slightly further than he’d intended to when he was trying to get a better look at the ridiculously hot bloke leaning against the bar.
“Who?” Pansy asked, whipping her head around to follow Draco’s gaze.
“Him,” Draco said, extending his arm and bumping his finger into Pansy’s nose because his inebriation had apparently affected his gross motor control. “The one with the arse,” he said, admiring the lovely, round shape wrapped in tight denim. “Don’t you just want to sink your teeth into it?” he asked.
“Draco, wh-”
“And that hair,” he added, imagining what it would look like if you released those dark curls from the elastic currently binding them. “Imagine sinking your fingers into that long thick hair, maybe pulling it a little while you-”
“Draco-” she started again.
“Shush,” he chastised, “Don’t interrupt a good day dream,” he said, eyes glued to the man at the bar, “And look at his shoulder muscles,” he added, admiring the way his t-shirt pulled taut across his broad shoulders. The man reached back and scratched his neck, forearm flexing, and Draco might have drooled a bit.
“Draco,” she tried again, “How drunk are you?”

Summary
They hadn’t been able to get out of that flat for two days without getting mobbed.
After someone had leaked their relationship to the media, it had been one thing after another. Every time one (or both) of them left they were absolutely bombarded by people. Reporters followed them everywhere, people heckled them, Harry had taken to just casting shields around them any time they were outside to stop the curses that were shot at them.
Draco was sitting, curled up and brooding, on the sofa in the living room when Harry got back from the grocery store.
“Hey,” he said, collapsing next to Draco and flopping over so he could rest his head on Draco’s chest.
“Hi,” Draco murmured, leaning down to brush a kiss over Harry’s forehead. “How was your trip?”
Harry groaned and shook his head, “Don’t ask.”
“Harry,” he started, in that careful way of his.
“No,” he said.
Draco huffed, “You don’t even know what I was going to say.”
“Doesn’t matter,” he said snuggling in closer. “I know that tone of voice; it sounds like sadness and denying ourselves, and I don’t want it.”

There was the crack of apparation and Harry jumped, twisting around to see that Pansy had appeared right in the middle of his garden. “Oy!” he shouted at her, “Get off of my carrots!”
“Potter, honestly,” she grumbled, “What the hell is wrong with you?”
He scowled at her, “You know what Parkinson? You can piss off. It’s not a great day and-”
“What are you still doing here?” she asked in exasperation.
He blinked, momentarily sidetracked from what he’d been rattling off at her, “What?”
“Why are you still here?” she said gesturing around with a mild look of displeasure on her face.
“Where else would I be?”
“Oh, I don’t know,” she said sarcastically as though the answer should have been obvious, “Stopping Draco from getting on a train that’s going to isolate him with that complete wanker of a boyfriend-”
“Why me?” he protested, “You’re his best friend.”
“And you are the love of his life!” she exclaimed in complete frustration.

Summary
The diner Harry wandered into was cute, all red and white checkered decorations and a counter with spinny stools. Harry sat down at one and grabbed a menu, perusing and trying to decide what to order when he heard the crash of something being dropped to the ground and breaking.
His head snapped up and he blinked, wondering if it had been too long since he’d gone to sleep because he had to be hallucinating. “Malfoy?” he spluttered.
But before the other man could respond there was a shout from the kitchen in the back, “Damn it! You clumsy, stupid ass!” the man shouted and Harry felt himself recoiling from the anger in his voice. “You’ll be paying for that!”
“Yes, sir!” Malfoy shouted back, bending over and hastily sweeping up the pieces.
“Well don’t mess around with that now!” he shouted. “You’ve got a customer, you worthless piece of-” his voice trailed off as he slammed a door in the back but Harry could fill in the rest.
“Malfoy?” he repeated as the man in question stepped over to him. “How on earth did you find me?” he asked.
“You found me, Potter,” he snapped. “Not the other way around. Now what can I get you?”

Summary
From a very young age, Draco had learned to like everything just so.
He liked for his books to be arranged alphabetically by subject on his shelves. He liked his shirts to be sorted by sleeve length and then color, his pants by color, and his robes by occasion and then color. He liked his rooms to have a certain symmetry to them so that they felt balanced. Everything had it’s place.
Until Harry.
When Harry moved in, he turned everything upside down. Suddenly the home that Draco had kept fastidiously tidy was overrun by the other man’s presence. Throw blankets were kept literally everywhere now: draped across the backs of sofas, over the arms of chairs, at the foot of the bed, folded into piles under the coffee tables. Draco’s closet space was now overrun by bulky jumpers and band t-shirts with no semblance of organization. The bathroom was full of hair and skin care products, mixing with Draco’s already large supply. Books and trinkets were tucked onto the book shelves, leaving hardly any tactfully blank space. And the once tidy spice rack was now overflowing with spices and herbs that Harry used to cook fragrant, delicious food. (Just to name a few things.)

The door flew open and before Harry had even turned around fully, Draco was grabbing him. Leaning in and kissing him as he shoved him back against the counter and pressed their bodies together.
A surprised moan slipped from his mouth and Harry pulled him in closer, heedless of the way he was gripping Draco’s shirt with wet hands.
Draco’s thigh slid between his and their bodies slotted even closer as Draco broke away to kiss, nip, and suck at Harry’s neck.
“Huhh,” Harry breathed as Draco sucked hard at his pulse point, “Not that I’m complaining,” he managed, “but what brought this on?”
“Chapter thirteen of The Den of Thieves,” Draco replied as he slid his hands under Harry’s shirt.
And Harry was almost distracted enough by Draco’s hands on him that he let the statement slide past him but after a heartbeat, his brain processed what Draco had just said and he froze. “You-” he started before breaking off, “You read my books?”
“Yeah,” Draco said, nodding into his neck as he pulled Harry’s collar to the side.
“Wait,” Harry said, pushing him back a little so he could see his face. “How did you even find them?” he wrote under a pen name for a reason. Literally to avoid this situation.

“We can’t keep doing this.”
Harry froze, halfway into his shirt and turned to face Draco who was still in the bed that Harry had climbed out of a few minutes ago. “What?” he asked.
“We can’t keep doing this,” Draco repeated, shuffling up higher in the bed and adjusting the blankets around his waist.
“Doing what?” he asked, keeping his voice carefully neutral.
“This,” the other man replied, gesturing between the two of them. “We can’t keep sleeping together. There’s no future in it,” he said simply. “I have my family’s expectations and you have the wizarding worlds expectations,” he shook his head, “we can’t keep doing this.”
“But-”
“No buts,” Draco said. “Just-” he broke off and sighed, “A clean break, yeah? Before either of us gets too attached and before we get caught.”
It took him a moment to respond but eventually he managed a nod, “Right. Well it’s been fun,” he said, scratching his beard, “your-”
“Don’t,” Draco interrupted, “Salazar, Potter, whatever sentimental codswallop you’re about to say, just don’t. It’s fine. We were fucking and now we’re moving on.”

Robards said, “Potter, I need you to finish filling out these papers, then I need you to finish that proposal we’re sending to the minister about increasing the DMLE’s budget for next year.”
“Right."
“Don’t forget how important it is that we get that extra funding,” he continued. “It could be the difference between life or death for some of our aurors.”
“Yes,” Harry affirmed. “I’ll have it ready. I’ll take it to Kingsley myself this afternoon.”
Robards looked at him curiously, “This afternoon?”
“We’ve got a meeting about the upcoming charity season,” he added, “trying to decide which events I’m needed to speak at.”
Before he could say anything more or ask Harry to do something else that he wasn’t entirely comfortable with, Harry fled, waving to Robards as he made a beeline to his office. He closed the door as quickly as he could, separating himself from the pressure waiting just outside his door.
“Rough start to the day?” Draco queried lightly.
Harry turned and glared at him, “I hate budgeting time! I hate charity season! I hate that I can’t even make it to my desk in the morning before I’m accosted by these-” he broke off, searching for the right word, “these vultures!”

Summary
Harry didn’t think about Draco Malfoy.
Okay, that was a lie. But he didn’t think about him as often as he used to.
That was also a lie. But he didn’t think about him as unfavorably as he used to; there was no whiff of suspicion or irritation when he thought about the other man anymore.
Now when he thought of him, the corners of his mouth tilted up in a smile because Draco was always saying something funny or clever and making Harry laugh. When he thought of him, his stomach swooped and dropped like he was flying. His mind had replayed every second of the time that they spent in one another’s orbits.
It was a pity that he was already dating someone else and Harry didn’t stand a chance.
“Malfoy broke up with Antonio!” Ron shouted, as he rushed into the kitchen where Harry was sitting, staring at the wall and thinking about Draco.
“Sorry?” he asked, thinking that surely he’d misheard his best friend. Draco had been talking about getting married to Antonio just last month, they couldn’t have broken up.
“Malfoy broke up with Antonio,” Ron repeated.
“What? Why?” Harry asked. “How?” he added, then frowned “When?” he asked because they’d been here only last night for a party.

“It is technically dark magic,” he said as he handed the spell book that would allow him to find Harry over to Hermione.
“Does anyone get hurt?” she asked as she started to read.
He shook his head, “No.” Then he amended, “Well, it requires that I give up a little blood but I’ll be fine.”
“Right,” she said, as she read through to the end, “So if I understand correctly, there’s one person who acts as a tether to here and then the person who used their blood travels to the person or thing they’re locating.”
“Yes,” Draco affirmed. “Your concentration cannot waiver. The tether snapping while I’m getting him will definitely kill me and if I have Harry and we’re coming back through it will kill him, too.”
“No pressure, then,” she said sardonically.
“Sometimes having additional casters can help,” he offered, “Or it can be a distraction. I’m not really sure who else we could ask for help and the time it would take-”
“It’s fine,” she said, interrupting him, “I’ve got this.”
“Thanks,” he said, trying to infuse all of his gratitude into one syllable.
She nodded. “Of course,” Hermione said softly. “Let’s get started, shall we?”

“Right,” he said with a wince, “I can understand where you’re coming from without the rest of the context. And I want you to know right off the bat that as a rule I am very pro-sex, like pretty much anytime you want.”
“I’m a little confused, then,” Draco said as he picked up his cup of coffee and took a sip.
“Just not when I’m writing.”
Draco blinked at him, “Sorry, have we been having sex when you’re writing without me realizing it?” he asked incredulously.

Summary
Draco had been doing just fine, thank you very much.
Sure, he might have repressed some of his feelings and emotions more than was healthy, but he was fine. He was a good auror, he’d earned quite a bit of respect for his work and his character, and he’d adopted a cat; he was fine.
And if he hadn’t gotten partnered with Potter after his partner retired and Potter’s requested a transfer, his life would have continued to be just fine.
But Potter had wanted to be friends.
He invited Draco out for drinks with his friends, for dinner after long cases, over to his house on the weekends to hang out, to quidditch games, and all sorts of outings.
Try as he might to limit his time with Potter and to decline politely, the other man was relentless. Potter invited him to do something nearly every day and he ran out of excuses, and then once he started coming he found that he actually enjoyed it.
More than that, he found himself enjoying spending time with Harry, first as a friend. And then he found the unimaginable happening; he was slowly but surely falling in love with the other man.

Summary
After the war and the trials, Harry Potter had some sort of mental breakdown and he disappeared.
And while Draco would like to be able to claim that he never thought about the other man, that would be a lie.
It wasn’t like he thought about him all of the time, though, wondering where Potter had ended up was just a sort of passing thought. One of the thoughts he’d have as he was about to fall asleep, or when he got just a little too tipsy, or when life got to be a little too stressful and he just needed something else to think about for a while.
Draco had left not long after, not because he was trying to find Potter, but because he couldn’t take the pressure and the preconceived notions that everyone seemed to have. Logically, he’d imagined that Potter had probably returned to the Wizarding world.
Still, there was always that strange part of him that knew their paths would cross eventually. Call it divination, call it intuition, call it fate, call it whatever you like; deep down Draco was certain that he’d see Potter again.

Summary
Harry never really stood a chance.
Draco and he had a standing agreement to spend the weekend in one another’s beds. At the beginning, it was neither of them had time for a relationship, they both had certain needs, and frankly they found each other attractive.
It was easy. There wasn’t pressure to be something he wasn’t, Harry never worried that the gossip columns would catch wind of it, there wasn’t any wooing involved. It was just two bodies; just two people meeting one another’s needs in a very enjoyable way.
He hadn’t expected to come back and find Draco curled up on his side in Harry’s bed, fast asleep. His heart clenched at the sight of him, his shoulder length blond hair braided with little pieces that had come untucked, his cheeks rosy from the warmth of the bedroom and Harry’s duvet, his long blond eyelashes touching his high cheekbones, the little mole on his neck that Harry secretly adored, the way his fingers curled around the comforter, and a thousand other minute details that made Draco completely breathtaking.
And it suddenly occurred to Harry that he never wanted to get into his bed without Draco again.

“Draco!” Harry shouted as he returned to their flat, carrying all of the treats that he knew Draco liked best. He wished that Draco wouldn’t date such arseholes (he wished Draco would date him) but no matter how many times he’d told Draco that he deserved better the other man wouldn’t listen. So he did the best he could when things inevitably went pear shaped, he bought snacks and self care things that would cheer him up.
The other man had been having a cry in his bedroom when Harry left and he knew that the best way to snap him out of a bad break up was with cookie dough, margaritas, and gummy worms while they did face masks.
When Draco didn’t respond or emerge from his room, Harry went over and knocked on the door, “Draco,” he said again. “Come on. I got strawberry margarita mix. I’m coming in,” he called as he pushed the door open. “I know you’re upset,” he started but then he saw that the room was empty.
The front door opened and Draco came bursting through. “Oh good,” he said, giving Harry a sharp smile, “You’re back.”
“I got your favorites,” he said, nodding toward the grocery bags. “They were out of snickerdoodle, but I-”

Summary
When Ron and Hermione had asked him to be the godfather, he’d been overjoyed and readily agreed.
Now he and Draco were shopping and buying heinously expensive things for the baby; they’d decided to buy everything left on the registry after the baby shower. As they were walking through the nursery section, Draco saying something about cribs and bassinets, Harry got distracted by an elephant plushy.
Smiling at the long-nosed, fuzzy, purple creature, he picked it up and stroked it’s super soft head and gave it a little squeeze for good measure.
“Harry,” Draco said.
“Mm?” he asked, glancing over at the other man.
Draco looked down at the toy in his hands, “That’s not on their list, is it?”
“What?” he asked, glancing down at the elephant again, “Oh, no. It just looked soft,” he said with a shrug, worrying the elephant’s ear between his fingers.
“It doesn’t really match the theme of the room,” he said uncertainly.
Harry nodded, “Yeah, I wasn’t thinking about it for the baby,” he said. “Just,” he shrugged, “Dunno. It looked kind of nice to touch.”

Summary
There was a knock at the door and Draco quickly looked around once more to make sure that everything was in its place before opening it. “Hi,” he said, a touch more breathlessly than he might have liked.
“Hey,” Harry said, grinning at him, “I brought wine,” he said, holding out the bottle. “I asked for a recommenda-” he broke off as the skittering of little feet brought Draco’s three Italian greyhounds scampering toward the door. “Babies!” Harry exclaimed at them, immediately crouching to greet them like they were his own dogs.
And he wanted to be annoyed because the three of them didn’t often take to people very well. They were a bit snobbish, it was one of Draco’s favorite things about them because it made him feel like their love was even more valuable.
But watching them climb all over Harry, their tails wagging so hard that their entire bodies wiggled, all he could feel was utter adoration for the other man. There was also the matter of the smile on Harry’s face, large enough to show his dimples and to make his eyes scrunch at the corners.
He was doomed.

“If I’ve upset you, I wish you’d tell me,” he said, trying not to snap at him. “I’m not fragile and if you never tell me what I’ve done wrong how can we ever-”
“Draco,” Harry said, standing up and stepping toward him. “Hey,” he took his hands, “Calm down,” he murmured, voice unbearably gentle.
“Don’t tell me to calm down!” Draco snapped. “Just-”
“I’m not upset with you!” Harry exclaimed. “You haven’t done anything wrong, everything is fine,” he said, shaking his head, “We’re fine. Better than fine, I thought,” he added with a frown.
“Then what’s wrong?” he asked. “I’ve tried not to be a crazy boyfriend who wants to know everything about your life but honestly I just don’t have it in me.”
“There’s noth-”
He interrupted him, “And don’t tell me there’s nothing wrong because I bloody well know there is. You’re drinking coffee,” he said, which he knew made him sound like an insane person, but it was true, “like multiple cups a day which you only do when you’re really tired,” he said. “And a day here or there where you’re tired is normal, but when you start having strings of days where you’re tired you’re always working at repressing something with your emotions,” he continued.

“Shit, Harry,” Draco hissed, “Fuck. Right there.”
“Here?” Harry asked, a smirk evident in his voice as he pressed harder.
Draco couldn’t stop the moan, “Yes,” he gasped. “You’re insufferable.”
“Is that so?” he teased as he shifted, working methodically. “Should I stop?”
“Don’t you fucking dare.”
Harry bent forward and pressed a kiss to the back of Draco’s neck and all of Draco’s bones turned to goop. “Have I ever told you how much I enjoy it when you curse?”
“Only about a hundred-” he broke off to moan as Harry’s hands found a spot that made his toes curl, “Fuck me-”
“I’ve already done that,” Harry quipped.
Draco rolled his eyes, “You know, massages are nicer when you shut the fuck up,” he said with as much venom as he could muster, which admittedly wasn’t much at the moment.

Summary
Harry hadn’t known what to expect when he signed up for the living model session, he wasn’t sure if he’d enjoy sketching a living, breathing person, but what did he have to lose? It couldn’t be that bad, surely.
And yet, as he was getting his easel set up and laying out his pencils and acrylics, he immediately regretted his decision. Apparently it could be that bad because there Draco Malfoy stood on the little stage that had been erected with a Grecian style chaise lounge and pillars, talking to Matilda, who ran the art classes.
Harry watched him smile and nod amiably and he almost wondered if it was someone else. Surely Draco Malfoy wouldn’t be talking to a muggle so congenially.
But then he turned his head and caught sight of Harry and all of the blood drained from his face and Harry knew that his eyes weren’t just playing tricks on him. “Potter?” he asked incredulously.
“Oh, you two know each other?” Matilda asked with a huge grin.
“Err,” Harry replied awkwardly, scratching the back of his head, “yeah.”
“We were,” Malfoy started and then broke off because 'rivals' or 'enemies' just feels ridiculous after everything that's happened.
“We went to school together,” Harry supplied.

They watched as two airplanes crossed paths leaving a big x in the sky.
“Chopsticks,” Harry said, pointing to the x.
Draco hummed and Harry glanced over at him but Draco kept staring up at the sky, day dreaming with his eyes open.
“What are you thinking about?” Harry asked, rolling on his side and resting his hand on the center of Draco’s chest, thumb rubbing idly back and forth.
He spoke without looking over him, “Do you ever think about just getting on one of those muggle flying contraptions and just leaving?” he asked. “About flying away to somewhere that you could just start again?”
“All the time,” he replied earnestly.
Draco looked over at that, “Yeah?”
Harry nodded. “It’s hard,” he said softly, “Living somewhere that won’t let us just be ourselves.”
He reached up and laced his fingers with Harry’s again and drew them to his lips before asking, “Where would you go?”
“I don’t care,” he said, “As long as I’m with you.”

Summary
“Do you want me to stay?“ Draco offered. "You can get cleaned up and we can order some take out and eat it on my sofa?”
Godric Harry wanted that. He had secretly, or maybe not so secretly, grown to love when they did that. Quiet nights in on the sofa, watching Draco’s muggle telly or just talking. Perfection.
But Draco wasn’t the homebody that Harry was. He loved to go out and celebrate, loved parties with lots of people and noise. He was always incandescent during evenings out, jubilant with the victory of a case solved, smiling and laughing, warm and loose. Pub night was probably the first time that Harry realized he loved the stupid prat. Maybe. He shook his head, “Nah, you go ahead. I’m exhausted, I’d probably just fall asleep halfway through dinner and get Thai food all over me.”
“I know plenty of good stain remover spells,” he offered.
“Go on,” Harry said with a chuckle. “I’ll be fine, I promise.”
“You’re sure?”
“Yeah,” Harry replied. “Thank you, though. For caring.”
“Pssh,” Draco said, giving Harry’s shoulder a shove, “I don’t care, I just don’t want to go through the hassle of training another partner to make me the perfect cup of tea.”

Summary
There was an upright piano that sat in the corner of the room. It was very rarely, if ever, used aside from the occasional plunk as a student walked past, but Harry was strangely attracted to it.
There was something about the idea of letting your fingers drift over the keys, about the act of creating something where there had been nothing only a moment prior, that Harry found immensely appealing. Harry sat down at the piano.
It was slow going, but whenever Harry woke up in the middle of the night and couldn’t fall back asleep, he’d wander down to the common room and cast a spell at the door to trap the noise in the room with him, and he’d play. Gradually he got better and by a few months in, he was playing things that sounded like music at the very least.
Then, on a very chilly December evening, when Harry was playing through something he’d made up in his head, he nearly jumped out of his skin when a voice said, “You haven’t got the best sense of rhythm, Potter.”
He spun around to see that Draco Malfoy had just entered the common room, looking a bit haggard, his face drawn and pale. And the snarky response he’d been about to fire back died on his lips. “Do you play piano?” he asked instead.

Summary
Harry was content.
So thoroughly content to just be with Draco that time was meaningless, until Draco let out a soft huff snore and Harry realized they’d been lying together long enough for Draco to fall asleep.
He debated waking him, because Draco never spent the night, but decided to just let it be. Harry couldn’t deny that he’d had this fantasy about waking up with Draco; about having a slow, sleepy morning together. He wanted breakfast together, and lazy morning sex, and cuddles, and a thousand other little moments that he’d never been brave enough to ask for.
So with one more soft kiss to Draco’s shoulder, Harry drifted off too.
—————
Harry woke up first the following morning. He’d shifted, rolling toward Draco and opening his eyes; he wasn’t prepared for the sight that met him.
The normally flawless skin of Draco’s chest and abdomen was covered with raised scars, scars that intersected and crossed all the way up to his neck, one trailing as high as his cheek.
And for a minute, Harry tried to piece together what could have happened in his bed overnight.

Summary
But here, sleeping in bed next to Draco, was the closest approximation to human sunshine that Draco had ever known.
Harry, who had more reason than anyone to let the darkness overcome him, who had suffered more than anyone Draco had ever known, chose light. He chose joy, and life, and light. Over, and over, and over again.
And Draco couldn’t understand it, how Harry chose to live, chose to forgive.
Chose to love.
“You’re thinking too hard,” Harry murmured, rolling and tugging Draco into his arms without even opening his eyes.
Draco went willingly, settling against him and soaking up the heat and comfort his body radiated.
“S'early,” Harry said, pressing a kiss to Draco’s nose.
Draco hummed in agreement.
“What’re you thinking so hard about?”
“You,” he murmured in reply, watched as the smile slipped across Harry’s face, crinkling the corners of his eyes.

Summary
He glanced at the clock and braced himself for the cheery ‘good morning, sunshine!’, knowing that Harry was going to come bounding in at any moment. He reminded himself, as he did every morning, that he was not a morning person and he shouldn’t feel tempted to smile or even respond with anything more than a grunted, 'morning’ in return.
A few minutes later, Harry came in but Draco could tell immediately that something was off. “Hey,” he said, holding out a cup of coffee to Draco as he continued over to his seat.
“Hi?” Draco managed.
Harry opened up a file that was on the corner of his desk and started to write in some notes, “I had a couple of thoughts on the Simmons case on my way here this morning,” he said.
“What?” Draco asked, still confused.
“Simmons case,” he repeated, glancing up at Draco, “I think the perp-”
“The Simmons case?” he asked. “Who are you? What’s wrong?”
Harry’s eyebrows furrowed at him, “What?”
“Just,” he shook his head, “This is not who you are in the mornings. So either you are someone impersonating Harry Potter or something’s wrong.”
Harry huffed, “Nothing’s wrong. I’m just,” he shrugged and took a sip of his coffee, “not feeling it today.”

Harry closed the door and looked around the hallway. “They’re shipping us!” he hissed.
“Pardon?”
“The kids!” he exclaimed. “I overheard them. They’re smashing our names together!”
“Okay?” Draco said. “Sorry, I’m not seeing why you felt the need to interrupt my class to tell me that.”
“Because they think we’re seeing each other!”
“And?” he asked, frustration rising in his voice.
“And,” he hissed, “We are seeing each other!”
Draco shook his head, “Potter, I fail to see what the problem here is.”
Harry pinched the bridge of his nose, “We are seeing each other and people think that we’re seeing each other.”
“Merlin. I am sleeping with a complete idiot. It’s like you’re saying the earth revolves around the sun and people are saying that the earth revolves around the sun.”
“Right,” Harry said, “But we can’t deny it without lying.”
Draco blinked, “Right,” he said, taking a step back from Harry. He shook his head and the cold, detached mask that Harry loathed fell into place over his face. “Well, I think it’s safe to say that we can tell them they’re wrong now.”

The door creaked on it's hinges as it scraped against the dirt floor of the cellar and Draco spun around, gun already in his hand, leveling it at the intruder.
"Take your finger off the trigger," Harry said softly, hands held aloft. "Sorry," he added as he set down a bag with some canned goods on the table.
"It's alright," he breathed, tucking the gun into the holster on his side once more. "I'm a bit jumpy."
Harry nodded and took a step closer, brushing his fingers over Draco's cheek as he tucked a hair behind his ear. Draco leaned into the touch, letting his eyes close for just a moment.
"I found something for you," Harry murmured, pressing a kiss to his forehead.
Draco opened his eyes, waiting for Harry to pull out a cloak in need of mending, or a muggle explosive with little fiddly bits that would work perfectly to stop the forces of the Ministry when they came looking for them again.
But what he pulled out instead was a perfect, lovely green apple.

Hating Harry Potter had been like second nature to Draco for so long.
So long, in fact, that it had taken years to understand why they didn't like Harry. It wasn't that Harry was an insufferable do-gooder, it wasn't that Harry seemingly hadn't been held accountable for his actions, it wasn't a thousand of the things that teenage Draco would have said about him.
It was that Harry had always been confident about who he was.
And that was something that had taken Draco years and years to get right. Truth be told, on nights like tonight, Draco still struggled to get it right.

"I hate everyone who isn't you," Draco confessed one night when it was just the two of them at the pub. Everyone else had already left, gone home to their families and spouses, and Harry had just stayed here with Draco. Like an idiot.
Because Harry had been in love with Draco for damn near a decade at this point and it never really got easier. He'd just learned to live with the ache that was constantly shredding his chest. Harry forced a laugh and threw the dart in his hand at the dartboard.
"No, I mean it," Draco said as he stepped up with his own dart and hardly aimed before sending it flying. Harry twitched a finger and corrected its course so that it hit the board.
"You don't," he replied before throwing another.
Draco grabbed his arm and spun him. Once they were face to face, noses inches apart Draco said, "It's true. I do. You're my favorite."
"Your favorite what?" Harry asked breathlessly, frankly surprised that he was able to get any words out at all with how close the other man was to him.
"Everything," he murmured.

Of the two of them, people would say Draco was the scary one; he knew categorically more jinxes and hexes, and he was absolutely ruthless. Harry tended to hold back a bit, he chose spells that wouldn't permanently injure.
But in this moment, after Harry had covered Draco with the shield, Harry went absolutely feral.
The other man bared his teeth and his magic raised him off the ground, entire body alight with fire, before he touched back down and a tidal wave of energy radiated from his body, knocking down all of the people left standing and blowing the doors clean off their hinges. He stood there for a moment, panting, as he checked the room, then he turned toward Draco.
"You're okay," he said, as he gingerly lifted Draco up into his arms, seemingly not sparing a single thought for all of the people lying around them. "You're okay," he repeated, eyes bright and vaguely terrified.

Summary
"No," Harry shouted, cradling his injured arm close to his chest like Draco was the most unreasonable brute to ever live, like Draco was the one who had hurt him in the first place.
"Harry-" he started.
But Harry shook his head, stepping around their kitchen table, keeping the table between them. "No!" he repeated, "you're going to hurt me."
"For fuck's sake," he sighed. "You've brought this on yourself."
His husband's bottom lip protruded, wobbling precariously, "It's not my fault," he whined.
And it was ridiculous just how hard it was for Draco to resist the urge to give in and just give Harry whatever he wanted when he pouted like that.

Summary
Harry was baking when Draco got home.
An apple pie, if Draco had to guess, judging by the smell wafting through the house. He took a slow breath before squaring his shoulders and heading toward the kitchen where his boyfriend was baking. It didn't seem like something that should set Draco's fight or flight responses off but it very much was.
Harry only baked pies when he was upset. And it wasn't that he was afraid of Harry; he wasn't, it was just that he hated how hard that amount of stress was, hated that they couldn't just have a proper fight anymore. Hated that he felt like it was all his fault.
"Hey," he said lightly, settling himself at the island and watching Harry as he tidied.
"Hey," Harry replied, voice equally light, but there was an undercurrent of something else there, something that Draco could feel buzzing in his veins.
He paused, parsing out the words. Maybe if he could just assure him-
"Don't," Harry said, voice sounding stretched tight, like something was ready to shatter inside of him.
"Harry-" he started.
A vase on the shelf wobbled dangerously for a moment before Harry exhaled and unclenched his fists, "Seriously, Draco," he said. "I need some time."

Summary
It wasn't fair.
Harry had no defense. There was nothing he could do to stop the inevitable tide of emotions rising in his chest and stomach.
The urge to squish, and touch, and hold was too overwhelming for him to do anything other than stare.
Draco Malfoy was already more adorable than Harry could stand most days and the sight of him curled up on the end of the couch in the 8th year common room, dozing in an oversized hoodie that almost reached his knees was just too much.

Summary
"Hey."
Harry hummed, lifting his eyebrows in response but not actually opening his eyes, still mostly asleep as his boyfriend murmured softly to him.
"Wake up," he said softly, kissing Harry's temple and carding his fingers through Harry's curls.
He hugged his pillow closer and curled his body toward Draco (at least toward where he assumed Draco was, since his eyes were still closed). Harry made another sound somewhere between a hum and a grunt, head bumping against Draco's thigh.
Draco laughed, soft and warm and fond, and Harry wanted to sink into the sound, which didn't even make sense but was an accurate depiction of his desires. "I made you breakfast," Draco cajoled.

Summary
"Don't laugh!" Draco shouted through the door of their bedroom.
He rolled his eyes and turned the page of his quidditch magazine. "Draco, I never laugh at your new clothes," he called back. It was true, he didn't, Draco sometimes picked the loudest, most ostentatious patterns imaginable; sometimes he picked cloaks that changed color based on his mood; once, memorably, he'd even found a hat with enormous peacock feathers. He'd never laughed, because he understood that clothes were an outlet for Draco, a way of being who he felt like he was on the inside. "I promise," he added.
When the door didn't open, Harry set down his magazine, "Draco?"
"Yes," he said through the door. "Yes, coming."
The door opened a crack but Draco didn't emerge, "Promise," he said. "Swear on our marriage and our nonexistent children that you won't laugh."
"Baby," he said, standing from the couch and moving toward the door. "I promise. I won't laugh."
"Sit down," Draco said, peaking around the corner, just his forehead and eyes visible. "Sit down and close your eyes. I can't do it if you're looking at me."
He frowned but did as Draco asked, wondering how he could possibly be nervous.

Summary
"Oh, Merlin," Draco said, voice tinged with that particular tone of vindictive glee that could only mean that Harry was about to get an ear full of gossip.
"What?" he asked as he poured coffee into Draco's mug.
"Thank you," Draco said as he tipped his head up, puckering his lips in search of a kiss.
Obviously, Harry obliged him, chest warming at the casual way Draco displayed affection. When he pulled away, he pecked Draco on the tip of the nose before going back to the stove top where he was cooking their eggs. "What were you going to say?" he prompted.
"Oh," Draco said, and even without looking, Harry could tell he was perking up, squaring his shoulders and grinning as he asked, "Did you read the paper this morning?"
"You know I don't read that garbage," Harry replied as he waved a hand at the toaster to put their toast down, whole wheat from him and rye for Draco.
"But you'll never guess the juicy details of this power couple's break up," he said.
