Break-up
Characters : Mattheo Riddle, Draco Malfoy, Tom Riddle, Theodore Nott, Blaise Zabini. Pancy Parkinson ( background )
How Slytherin boys will react when you ask them for break up.
Warning : might be toxic, alcoholism, possesive and obsessive behaviour, Reader feels they are too much ( in Blaise Zabini hc, you can skip that )

Mattheo Riddle
He's not going to listen a word so don't even bother.
He will shut you up real quick in more than one way, speaking too loud, cutting you mid, changing topics and rushing to classes that don't even exist and his most favourite, kissing you.
He would kiss you so hard that every thought inside your head would evaporate in fuzzy vapour, the bubbles in your head popping with each moan that would escape your throat.
“You were saying something?” He would ask so wickedly, amused with the dumb look you have plastered on your face and relishing while your fumble within words.
“ I don't think it's important." He would take your hand, kissing the inside of your palm, his sweet words vibrating through your skin.
“ yeah, not important.”
Draco Malfoy
Ofcourse he would be a nonchalant bastard about it, despite the brimming tears at the inside of his eyes.
“ oh, fancy potter now, don't you ? ” he would snarl, accusingly, his voice harsh and contempt choking him.
Draco would do everything wrong, say the wrong things, do even more.
He would start by parading Pancy around, so desperate that he would also accept Miss Greengrass's date invite.
But he would also cry, as soon as the facade will crumble, he would grip the sink till his knuckles went white, face wet and red with tears that wouldn't stop.
Then a word with his mother would do the miracle and the next thing you know would be a very drunk Draco howling and sobbing his undying love for you, refusing to leave and would make everyone listen how much he loves you, and how you belong with him.
“ Draco.” you winced at the grimness left behind after dries tears, softening.
“ Go back to your dorm.”
“ kiss me night and i'll go.” Draco slurred, you were pretty sure you smiled as soon as he said 'fight' instead of night.
“No.”
“ Yes!” He would lean down at you, pouting, and how much you loved this boy, all his tantrums, all his shenanigans. Your pretty, smart and silly boyfriend.
“Okay.” you breathed, pecking his cheek, tasting his tears and how much you hated it.
“ I'll be good...good for you.” he will be, you thought.
Tom Riddle
“ You decided that yourself ? ” Tom would whisper ever so dangerously, pressing closer, you could hear the pitch silence outside the tapestry.
“ It's not... It's not working Tom.” you knew he loved you but he was gone half the time, half the time with books that were too bold and dark, of magic that was malicious beyond your wits.
“ yeah ? ” He would smear his thumb across your face, kneading your cheek and you tried your best to stay quiet but the arousal that lurched inside you, just by his mere touch, sometimes just the way he looked at you, like he was part of your soul.
Tom would smirk, delighted when you moaned for him like that, he wasn't accepting at first how you drived his crazy just by existing. He wouldn't let you go, never ever.
“ I want to bury my soul into you.” His nose mapping your neck, taking your scent.
“ oh.” you trembled when his hands worked their way inside your shirt, cold rings blazing in your warm flesh.
“ But it will take time my darling.” his disappointment flushed when he looked up at you, breathless and hot under him.
“ so for now...” his mouth twitched, Head boy Tom Riddle, sinking to his knees, eyes glinting so bright. Oh how much he wishes to mingle your souls together, how much.
Theodore Nott
He's going to sensible, furrowing hard but listen when you tell him all the reasons how it could'nt work , he's considerate enough to pat your back, soothing you, when you break down in between.
“ If you need time baby, then I'll be patient.” he would say, kissing your forehead.
He wouldn't sit next to you in classes despite his soul wanting to crawl out of his body and embrace you.
Theo only sometimes snuggled next to you in armchair, you couldn't even blame him for it was too cold
He was on his best behaviour ignoring the totally 'accidental' beat ups of guys who were going to ask you or almost did, but in either way they never showed up.
“ I see you aren't dating anyone.” He would make no attempt to get up from your lap, discarding your homework with a swish of his wand.
“ shut up, or i will pour this ink pot on you.” you would bristle like a cat, it was inevitable not to card your fingers in his hair, scratching his scalp, he relaxed into your touch, chuckling.
“ It wasn't me.”
You sighed, looking at the bruised knuckles because your baby wasn't even trying to be subtle. He could have used his wand, phew.
“ c'mon, now can we please date again ? ” He would look up with puppy eyes, sticking out his lower lip to look extra cute. Shit, you shouldn't have told him that.
“ You guys stopped dating ? ” Draco asked, brow raised in question.
“ hey.” His fingers reached to trace your jaw, arching a little as you gaped a soft, ‘Theo’
“ Please, please, please.” He pleaded, his chin raised, as if he could claim your lips just like that.
“ Get yourself a room ! ” Pancy snapped, Theo only sneered while you looked away flushed pink.
“ Theo, stop.” you whined, when he got up, hawling you up in his arms as you wacked him repeatedly.
“ I've been a good boy.” he would mouth, smiling when you would hide your blush in the crook of his neck.
“ The only thing I am interested in breaking with you,” a pause, “ is my bed.”
Blaise Zabini
“ What did I do wrong ? ” that's his first question and you're already guilty.
“ It's just everything is so messy Zab, it's too much for me.”
He couldn't say anything more, the lump in his throat strangling each sound that passed between his cartilage.
“ Blaise...” you whispered when his whole face, that shined brighter than the whole sky withered away.
“ Hey...” you cooed and nudged him lightly and it was enough to break free the sob that grasped his chest, his whole heart. He hiccuped before large tears streamed down his coppery skin, gleaming in the basking glow of midnight.
“ Don't... please..d.. don't ” he sobbed harder, his whole body shaking.
You wrapped your arms around his waist, pulling him closer till your heart were crossed.
“ I am too much Blaise... Like a black hole.” you could never take away his glisten, never.
“ I love you.” he said, wrapping himself around you, closing his eyes as tear escaped and brushed against your clothes, love lorned and love sick.
“ I love you too.” because how could you not say it back ? When he loved you like you were the most precious one to him.
You will try, try your best and let him shine, protect him from your drakness, you have to try your best.
New Mattheo fic - Don't blame me
♡ my favourite draco ♡ (headcanons)
*draco that I’ve created in my mind, thanks to endless hours spent on reading fanfictions, the books and binge-watching the movies*
oh, Draco…
he’s flawed, full of brilliance yet deeply insecure
desperately tries to hide his self-doubt behind ironic smirks
uses sarcasm (a lot) as a shield protecting himself of any vulnerability
his tongue is sharp, he effortlessly cuts through any argument, always knowing exactly what to say to hurt you in the worst way possible- even if you are someone important to him (or perhaps, especially so)
quick tempered, saying spiteful things in the heat of the moment, only to regret them later
his nights are restless as he torments himself with thoughts about his worth, grappling with past choices and questioning whether he's deserving or not
desperately craves for a connection in the darkest of his room
fuelled by ambition (classic slytherin), carrying himself with pride, a touch of poshness, and (an occasional) dramatic flair
he wants to appear to the world as someone cold, but he actually has the sweetest soul, hidden behind a distant demeanour he so deliberately created through the years
a loverboy at his core, he quietly yearns for something more than its written for him
he dreams of genuine relationship, something that could take his breath away, but he’ll never openly admit to that, so instead he will torture himself with the thought
he writes you a love letter and never sends it
he wants to give you roses, kiss your hand gently every-time he sees you
he wants to walk you home, give you his warmest sweater, watch how your eyes glitter in the pale moonlight
he can be funny if he's not too stuck-up in his head at the moment, he likes to tease a lot, and flirt shamelessly
if he hurt you with his reckless words, firstly he feels good about it and after the realisation hits him he's full of rage, he detest himself because of it, is punching a wall with his bare fists, his knuckles in blood, howling, he's losing his mind
he's apologising to you on his knees, begging you not to leave him and ugly crying
when it comes to his looks, he’s tall and blonde (obviously)
has the loveliest upside-down smile
beautiful bone structure, beautiful jawline beautiful everything
sad, blue eyes, a hint of thunderstorm and doubt hidden behind them
almost aggressive, violet bags under them as he can't sleep at night, remember?
his complexion pale, almost sick, that make it seem like he hasn’t seen the sun in centuries
long limbs, neatly done hair, short-cut nails, always shaved
dressed impeccably in dark attire that make him look so utterly delicious

19. Love have no bounds
Prompt used - high fiving | fluff | Harry finally delivers his unrequited love to Draco | unedited
" do you think this shelf would go along with the white drawers in my bed room ?" Harry asked as he surfed Ikea along with Draco
" you want something in contrast with the walls of your bedroom and your drawers Harry and red is the last thing that should do, why don't you check those brown shelves, they're pretty good. They would look good with your roof window you know " Draco pointed towards the brown shelves while picking up something's for Harry's new apartment.
Harry smiled at draco for a moment " you always know the best "
" I mean don't underestimate my taste, it's purely elite " Draco gave a tiny laugh
" even when it comes to relationships?" Harry joked
" now that i think of it, the guy I like seems pretty oblivious so I think maybe not so elite " Draco replied smiling to himself
" why don't you just tell him you like him then ?" He asked
Draco frowned stopping for examining the kitchen essentials " he's- it's not that simple. We're great friend's but I think he doesn't like me that way "
" oh " Harry pouted pushing his hands into his pockets before joining along Draco in kitchen essentials. They didn't really talk about it after that. The truth was Draco had been head over heels for Harry ever since the war, he always knew somewhere he liked Harry but only became aware of his feelings after the war but the more troubling part was whenever Draco tried to indicate it, Harry would just freak out and do something so casual as if they're like brothers and it would ruin the moment and draco would be forced to simply drop it. It happened so much that Draco had completely given up trying to make a move on Harry a long time ago but his feelings haven't really left him at all, it's hard to not fall for someone more each day when they're around you so much.
They were outside in the park after shopping sitting on the bench eating ice cream when Harry finally talked after all
" Draco ?"
" hmm"
" There's this place that I know - well uh- Someone suggested it " Harry awkwardly fumbled with his jeans avoiding looking at Draco.
Draco was immune to harry freaking out easily yet he couldn't help but feel giddy about how after all this time Harry had finally decided to maybe make a move.
" what's the place like ?" Draco controlled his hyperventilating emotions to ask something casual. Maybe this was it.
" well it's a new Riverside restaurant, the foods delicious and I was wondering .."
" wondering what ?"
" if- If you'd maybe like to come along ?" Harry finally asked.
" like -"
" yeah like with everyone " Harry interjected almost jumping up in his seat.
" oh " something hauled in Draco's stomach like a huge weight was dropped and suddenly he was very much aware of his tounge in his mouth. He rubbed his nose with his index finger before giving Harry a warming smile " sure yeah, that'd be great. Who all are going to be there ?"
" yeah - I think Ron , mione, you could maybe ask pansy and Theo to come along. I'll see if I can get Ginny and Luna to come " Harry smiled.
" uh yeah sure- you know what you take care of Ron and Hermione, I'll ask Luna and pansy. Theo's out of state for some business so he won't make it " Draco replied in a strained voice, his clutch on his ice cream too hard to almost break it.
" great then " Harry said and raised his right arm " Draco, high five " Draco raised his eyebrows for a moment as if not actually believing Harry had done that but nonetheless in a fake happiness he gave him a high five and ate the rest of this ice cream in the loneliness of his broken heart.
" you've been strangely quiet " Harry asked as he walked Draco home
" oh- it's nothing- just a little brain freeze from the ice cream and tired. I'll see you at that restaurant with others tomorrow night then " Draco gave him a firm smile and without a goodbye closed the door behind him. He pressed his back against the front door sliding down, closing his eyes with his hands over his face rubbing it slowly, harsh breaths leaving his lips.
" fuck " Draco whispered to himself hitting his thighs wanting to scream for even thinking that Harry could've possibly after all this time would've reciprocated any feelings as such. He cursed himself repeatedly for being so stupid, so stupid to believe any of such sort. Rubbing his eyes he finally got up and just sleept his sadness away.
" honey- I'm so sorry about that. I mean I thought after all this time -"
" yes so did I pans but you know what I'm done with his shit. He can go fuck himself, I don't care. I don't care even a little bit" Draco harshly said as he put on shoes for the night
" but Draco, you do care, you care so much that after all this time you still love him the same " came a small whisper from the girl in blue. Luna.
Draco's eyes softened upto Luna " I - maybe I do but I have to stop caring. It's been years, I've been in love with him for as long as I can remember but it's clear isn't it, he just doesn't see me that way and I can't care about it even if I want to. He doesn't like me and that's the bottom line and I have to accept the harsh truth "
" he's a git " Ginny said annoyed almost stomping the floor in the process
" yes, the git I've been In love with unfortunately . Shall we ?" He gave them a small smile. With pity they nodded and everyone apparated to the said address.
When Harry had said the restaurant was by the Riverside, draco didn't actually believe it would be Riverside but he was surprised to see that it just by the river and beyond perfect. The lights on the coast and the leaves on the surface of the river with the exquisite sight of river was perfect, perfect for a date which Draco unfortunately wasn't on one.
And just in mere seconds he saw Harry come in with Hermione and Ron, Hermione harshly Whispering something to harry before she saw the others and immediately turned her lips into a gentle smile.
" evening, table for 7 I suppose " the waitress said, Harry nodded claiming he had a reservation and finally when they were seated, it didn't take long for everyone to erupt into conversation, everyone except Draco who was admiring the beauty of the river.
" hey " he heard across the table and looked upto see Harry smiling at him
Draco gave him another small smile.
" you're very quiet, everything alright ?" Harry asked leaning over so they could have a little more privacy.
" everythings fine " Draco gave a curt nod before picking up his wine and Turning to Ginny on his side and talking about quidditch.
They were half way through the conversation when Draco saw someone across the table sitting along and instantly recognising him from work
" Thomas ?" Draco called out. The guy instantly looked up and gave him a firm wave.
" mind me " Draco said as he got up from the table and joined thomas in a little conversation which seemed like a small playful argument from Harry's side before he came back to the table.
" would you guys mind if invite Thomas to join us, he just got stood up on his date and he's just in a bit of a shitty place?" He asked. Everyone nodded except Harry.
" Harry ?" Draco finally asked him
" huh - I mean yeah sure- I don't mind " he said and instantly turned to his drink and gulped it down. Frowning Draco walked away and asked Thomas to join. Within minutes the entire table filled with much more conversations and funny anecdotes from Thomas, everyone loved him but Harry. He didn't even say anything, for the rest of the night he had chosen silence and Frankly Draco didn't wanted to care much, but, he did.
After the dinner while everyone was departing and draco was paying for Thomas's dinner, Harry joined him.
" nice guy Thomas huh" he said as he took out his card
" yeah " Draco said without looking up from the bill and finally took his wallet and paid in cash.
Once everyone had left, Draco was saying goodbye to Thomas by the river while harry waited for him so he could walk home with him but it took him forever and harry was almost bored of waiting but didn't leave.
" what are you still doing here ?" Draco furrowed his eyebrows as he finally looked at harry waiting kicking rocks.
" waiting for you " Harry replied as if it was so obvious. Ignoring the tone Draco bobbed his head in forward direction for him to join along for the walk.
" so he's the oblivious guy ?" Harry asked as he pushed one of his down his pocket while the other hung his jacket on his back.
" what ?" Draco asked confused, looking at harry only for a moment, as if it'd make him forget of his Beauty.
" the guy you like. Seems like it worked out for you tonight " Harry didn't look up from the road
" what? You think I like Thomas ?" Draco questioned exasperated
" seemed evident. You guys were all over each other, laughing about, having fun " the bitterness could be heard even by a deaf man but Draco refused to get his expectations up this time. He have had plentiful of Harry's heartbreaks to take another one because of false expectations.
" i- I don't like Thomas. I only invited him because he got stood up by his date " Draco replied irritated
" yeah so you swooped in became the nice guy and now he won't stop thinking about you and the next thing you know you both would be snogging each other off at office" Harry clenched his jaw finally looking up Draco's irritated face.
Draco stopped dead in his track out of disbelief in whatever Harry was saying, it was unlike him to say anything like that.
" he's not the one I like"
" right " Harry sarcastically replied raising his eyebrows before looking away from Draco to the side
" I - I can't believe you right now. Out of all the People you are not supposed to react this way " Draco pointed his finger at harry for emphasis
" me ? " Harry rolled his eyes
" yes you ! You are the last person to act jealous about me inviting Thomas over on the table. You shouldn't even be jealous of him" Draco's voice raised a little in annoyance, thankfully the streets were empty.
" jealous ? Why would I be jealous, there's no reason for me to be jealous, I'm just saying you have a good shot with him " Harry irritability said
" good shot- I - god - I can't believe you Harry. You think I should date him ?" He asked crossing his arms in front of him
" I don't see why not, he's nice and smart and cute and exactly your type" Harry clenched his fists on his side's..
" my type ? How exactly do you know my type Harry, or you're just assuming that just because I invited a guy over I want to snog him " Draco huffed closing the distance between them
" I know what' your type is-"
" no you freaking don't Harry. Thomas is not my type, you're my fucking type. You're the bloody git I like but if you want me to go off on date with him, I might as well do that because apparently we're never working out because you're never going to feel the same way " his voice broke with each step he took closer to harry but didn't let his emotions get the best of him.. " for you I'll ask him out on a date. It's time for me to move on anyways" Draco Whispered ,stepped back and walked by Harry. He didn't wanted to see Harry's face, he didn't wanted to see the face of rejection but above all he didn't wanted Harry to see him cry. Draco pushed his hair back as he started walking off alone thinking if this was really the end of it all until he heard the voice behind him.
" you're the stupid git " Draco turned around to see Harry walked fastly towards him
" me?" Draco asked annoyed
" yes you" Harry replied as he was almost face to face with Draco again
" Enlighten me why?"
" because you thought I never felt the same way-"
" don't make up rubbish -"
" you're stupid to think that I haven't spent most of life loving you, that all this time I've been so In love with you that I rejected every date I ever got asked for, you're stupid to think that all this time I didn't know you loved me the way I did, you're stupid to think that I'd let some other man take away the only man I've ever been in love with, you're stupid, you're stupid Because I'm in love with you, you're stupid to think that all this time I didn't make a move because you thought I didn't like you but the truth is I didn't make a move because you're too good to be true, Because I don't want to wake up one day and know that I don't have you anymore, because I don't want to lose you, because everything I've loved had been snatched away from me but I don't want that. You're so fuckin stupid to think all of that you stupid git " Harry Whispered tear Falling off from his left eye.
Stunned with Harry's word, Draco blinked away his tear and gave small laugh " I am a stupid git "
" but I want to be yours stupid git Harry, how long would it take for you to figure out. You're never going to lose me, there's nothing else left to lose to, you're the stupid git to think that I would wake up one day and walk away from the only best thing in my life. And you will be stupid to think that I haven't loved you every morning I've woken up. You are my first thought and my last thought Harry and I can promise you, you'd never, ever lose me"
" you promise ?" Harry choked on a smile with tears now rolling down his face.
" I promise" Draco smiled wiping off Harry's tears before cupping his face and kissed him..
Neither of them actually ever believed that love was magical, that a kiss can be so magical that you'd lose sense of where you are, that when you kiss Someone you love after so long feels like returning home. They didn't thought that kissing each other would be the best thing they'd ever done in life but when they did, they lost all sense of who they are, where they are and what they are and only remembered kissing each other. When they did kiss, they weren't on earth, they were in their own magical world where there was Only the two of them, and when they kissed it felt like they had been doing this all their life. Only they didn't realise that even after being so in love, they could still love each other more that they would want to spend the rest of their lives together one day, but that's about love, it surprises us.

prompt used - falling asleep on other’s shoulder | fluff| Day 21
“ potter “ draco nodded as harry walked with notebooks in his hands to the staff room, being morning it was pretty empty
“ malfoy “ harry nodded at draco and sat down in front of him
“ how’s the morning coming along ?” he asked with a warm smile occasionally drinking his coffee after having it miss this morning due to an eventful morning.
“ well there was a mass murder in the bathroom this morning but other than that really pleasant" harry gave him a little head tilt with a little smile.
“ really ? what was the mass murder of ?” draco chuckled leaning back in his chair to listen to harry’s interesting morning story
“ mosquitoes. apparently my very attractive irresponsible husband left the window open and it welcomed the entire narnia of mosquitoes “ harry answered
“ oh well, i’m sure he did it by mistake but rest in peace to all those mosquitoes” draco chuckled
“ how was yours ?” harry asked smirking
“hm, well eventful. It’s our anniversary so breakfast in bed before work and well you know the rest. Love these anniversaries “ draco bit his lip before giving harry a wide grin
“ ooh anniversary, what have you planned ?” harry narrowed his eyes in a sneakish way
“ oh just a bit of this, a bit of that. surprises you know. Don’t want to go about spilling the beans. Its a secret between me and me” draco smirked and finished the rest of his coffee
“ potter, malfoy, to classes “ Ms. Mcgonagall walked by announcing them to cut their chatter and they did so. The rest of the day harry and draco Passed by each other a lot offering each other small smiles.
" sir is it true that it's your 6th anniversary?" A student asked in Draco's class abruptly.
" well I don't see how it's in the reference to whatever I've given you to write about " Draco answered searching for the voice
" cut them a slack Mr. Malfoy, they're merely being curious like everyone else including me " Harry walked in from the back door Grinning
" well If that is the case- yes it is true. It will be my 6th anniversary as of now " Draco raised an eyebrow at harry
"professor forgive me but if it's your 6th anniversary then you must be giving them something really special right ?" Asked the same voice but it was no lie that the entire class was curious.
" yes but I think it will be about time you focus on your work while I give Mr. Potter a word about interrupting my classes " Draco raised from his chair, Harry following him outside.
" how may I help you Mr. Potter ?" Draco asked in a professional way.
" well- I just came by to inform that today's meeting have been moved forward " Harry told him.
" well that works in my favour " Draco tilted his head in surprise but not entirely surprised , he expected It if anything.
" I must say your lover sure is a Lucky person " Harry smiled
" I think your husband is as equally lucky " Draco smiled. Lingering in the moment for a smile, Harry walked back off to his office with a little grin.
When the day came to an end, harry was busy stacking things up over his desk and drawers when he heard a little knock on the door and saw Draco leaning over the door.
" 2 minutes " he smiled. Harry looked up at the watch on the wall before he walked towards Draco and dragged him inside.
" 1 minute "
" 10 seconds "
" 2 seconds "
And then Harry pulled him closer, closing the door behind him and kissing him over the lips.
" I missed you " Harry mumbled against his lips
" you saw me an unusually lot Harry" Draco smiled not moving an inch apart
" well I missed my husband " Harry said as he gave him a chaste kiss again to show how true his words were
" in that case, I missed my husband too but I think I like professor potter better, he's got a- well nice ass " Draco chuckled creating a little space to grab Harry's ass just a little
" lucky for you, we're both the same people or you would've been a dead man " Harry chuckled intertwining their finger's together
" like the mass murder in the bathroom this morning ?" Draco laughed . Joining along in the laughter, Harry nodded.
" come home after 15 minutes, get dressed and follow little white notes okay. See you soon babe " he spoke so fast that Harry barely understood a word but he left faster than he had spoken leaving Harry excited and confused.
Just like Draco had said, Harry returned home 15 minutes later, freshened up, got dressed and finally started finding little white notes. The first one he found quite easily right over the mirror.
" find me where you know I hate those little rings "
Harry thought for a moment, wondering about wherever he hated the rings but Draco loved them. And suddenly just then his eyes fell upon the glass of water, a coaster beneath it. The ring Draco hated, water rings. He immediately ran out to the living room and looking over the coffee table.
" found it " Harry Whispered to himself picking the little white note from beneath the coaster. He went one after another notes, taking his time to solve the riddle and swearing Draco for the most part for doing something like that.
He finally reached the last note reading it only one and figuring it immediately
" meet me where the green had never looked so good and the storm had never raged "
Painting Harry reached the Richmond hill, London, a patronus waiting for him right there. He followed the little light, leading to Draco who was staring over the hill enjoying the view. He must've crushed a stick Because immediately turned around
" damn you're slow" Draco chuckled as he saw Harry
" hey I got confused with the 2nd and 3rd one, I figured the last one pretty easily, also 6 years into relationship you should know that I'm shit at riddles " Harry told
Shaking his head with a little smile Draco continued " you remembered ?"
Harry furrowed his brows with a little surprised smile " what? You thought if it were the 4th date, I wouldn't remember it! The green never looked so good and the storm had never raged? It was the easiest one, I remember everything draco. You told me that night that green-"
" is your favourite colour because of my eyes-"
" is my favourite colour because of your eyes" they said simultaneously. Smiling at the verbal connection Harry enclosed the distance between them.
" your eyes still just as beautiful as they were that day " Harry Whispered smiling.
" they still vary colour everyday " Harry added
" well If you could only see you from my eyes. You'd understand why it does it everyday " Draco smiled putting his arms Around Harry's waist, fondly looking in Harry's eyes which glowed with little yellow freckles because of the reflection of the lights Draco had decorated the place with.
" thought you said it's a pureblood thing ?" Harry frowned putting his arms around Draco's neck
" it is. But it varies colours because each day I look at you in a different way than I have before. One for each day I have loved you so long " Draco smiled. With a flick of his wrist, Draco turned on the slow music, I'm yours by Jason marz playing slowly over the radio.
Harry was left speechless, finding it hard to describe in words how much more he loved Draco but he suspected that even if Harry's eyes didn't change colour each day, Draco knew that Harry loved him in ways he'd never loved anyone else and probably would never love anyone else more. Smiling Harry put his head over his shoulders and started swaying. lightly to the music.
" I remember this song playing from the car parked not far from here " Harry Whispered
" I think it suits well for both of us" Draco mumbled tightening his grip around Harry's waist.
Harry smiled knowing Draco was smiling just like he was. 6 years of being together yet they loved each other just like they had loved one another when they first confessed their I love you's, the same way when Harry was away for the first Christmas, the same way when Draco was banished from malfoy family, the same way when Harry was away for a mission for 2 months, the same way when they loved each other during and after the first fight, the same way they had felt on the day of marriage and had promised to love everyday till death part them. In a way just like million others this song was also Just their own and they found it quite nice to having been a part of something they chose to belong to even if it also belonged to the rest of the world. In trillions of moments, the song by Fate had played in that moment but they were 2 simple boys having no choice bought together by fate, and had they never regretted it.
And for the second time in the entire life they spent together, in the moments of revelation, the song played for the second time
" and the world said we'd never make it through " Draco smiled staring up at the sky at the stars, Harry's head over his shoulders, his face nuzzled in Draco's neck, cuddling comfortably.
Harry hummed in response, his arms hung loosely around Draco's body. It was not long after when Draco heard Harry's light snoring. Smiling to himself, Draco retrieved the blanket, covered both of them us and slept peacefully, just like he did for the rest of his life for he never loved anyone like he did Harry, he didn't had to. He was enough; more than enough if so.

" sir, I've already checked thrice and I am sure there's no reservations under the name for Draco malfoy. I'm sorry sir " the girl gave him a sympathetic smile
" Draco it's fine, we'll go some place else " Harry clutched Draco's hand besides him
" no Harry it's not fine-"
" it is, we're sorry for the inconvenience. Have a lovely day " Harry gave the girl a charming smile and dragged Draco out with him.
" I swear I made the reservations " Draco threw his hands his hands in the air in annoyance
" I believe you babe, we'll find some place else " Harry gave him a smile as they walked back to the car.
" but this was the perfect place Harry, I'd been planning this for months and now it's woosh, just not there " Draco sighed as he opened the door for Harry, then walked off to his driver's seat.
" it doesn't matter Draco-"
" it does to me Harry " Draco mumbled as he turned on the car and stayed there in silence for a moment.
" you know, we'll do the next thing on my list" Draco's voice rose in little excitement. Harry gave him a contented smile and they soon drove off.
But as it turned out Draco forgot the tickets to the concert and it was all booked out.
One thing after another, most of his bigger plans failed and he was only met with disappointment until they finally decided to just retrieve back to their place and have a fine ordered dinner with some champagne and call it a night.
But for obvious reasons Draco was bummed out. It was Harry's 21st birthday and he had been planning for this for months, dinner at a nice restaurant, go to a concert, go to a late night beach walk, maybe go do swimming but one thing after another, everything had collapsed onto the ground, for one he never got the reservation at the restaurant, he forgot tickets at home and it was all sold out and they couldn't possibly go now, for it was too late, the beach was all closed down for cleaning so they couldn't even apparate inside. It was a terrible night and Draco felt helpless. Worse than helpless if so. At least the cake would still be something fine.
But it wasn't his lucky day, his cake somehow had even delivered upside down and by his mistake he hadn't even checked before and now the bakery won't take it back and above everything else,the entire block was out of lights because of some technical issues.
" this day couldn't had been more worse " Draco huffed as he threw himself onto the couch and balled into it in disappointed.
" hey " Harry consoled as he came by and sat next to him and snuggled him from behind " it doesn't matter-"
" Harry it might not matter to you but I spent so much time planning all of this, making sure everything was perfect. I even checked 3 times with the restaurant for the reservation yet somehow they didn't had a recollection and I was too fucking stupid- shit- I could've apparated back for ticket. Ugh " draco groaned, curling up more just inside him.
Harry huffed before he got up and sat down on the ground to face Draco.
" get up " harry ordered as he looked at the miserable self of Draco. Confused, Draco refused but harry dragged him up.
" we've still got 2 hours before my birthday ends and I'm sure we can make something out of it Because it surely means too much to you that you're beating yourself up for it, now think of resources at the best for you and just do something, and I'll act surprised okay ?" Harry raised his eyebrows, making sure it was okay.
Draco bit his lip thinking before he stepped away and nodded.
" okay just, go inside the bathroom for a while. And meet me at the roof in 15 minutes alright. And no peaking " Draco ordered. Chuckling Harry kissed Draco's cheeks and walked inside the bathroom and locking himself inside.
Exactly 15 minutes later Harry walked out of the bathroom to find the apartment empty. He searched for Draco to make sure he wasn't ruining his surprise and once he was sure, he carefully made his steps to the roof.
Harry reached the roof door and almost entered when he decided to make sure if Draco was done " should I come in ?"
" just-a- minute " Draco sounded out of breath. Harry heard a clap before Draco opened the door with the most charming he had ever pulled and offered Harry to take his hand. Surprised Harry took his hands and walked into the roof.
" obviously I couldn't do much with the lights all out and well- sometimes these muggle laptops can be of actual use. Also I made sure there was no insect's inside the green house so we won't need repellents " Draco explained As he walked Harry into the small date he had set up in top of their apartments in the greenhouse. With limited resources draco could only set dinner over the ground with a bunch of candle lights lingering in the air and lion king movie paused over the laptop. He had managed to get to lay a few blankets over the ground as well as have a few to cover themselves with.
" this- wow " Harry stuttered amazed at how good everything actually looked
" it's not much. It's nothing compared to whatever I had planned but this is the best I could-"
" Draco " Harry grabbed Draco's arms and forced him to look at harry " the fancy restaurant or the concert or a good beach night, all these materialistic things doesn't matter to me. Yes they would've been nice but this- this is nothing compared to what we could've done. It doesn't matter how I spend my birthday Draco, it's who I spend it with. I don't want some fancy or a extravagant things to be happy on my birthday, I'm happy with you waking up next to me on my birthday, hell everyday. I don't need all these things, it's only you who matters to me, I just need you to acknowledge the days that's all. I've never been huge fans of extravaganza, it's people who matter and as long as I have you, I'm sure all my birthdays will be great " Harry told him as a stroked his arms gently..
" you get me? I love this. This is better than anything else you had planned. And to be frank those huge restaurant serves like a spoon of food for such huge amount Money, I'd much rather have this perfect pizza and champagne. I love you Draco and i love absolutely everything that you do for me. You trying is enough for me and I hope you understand that too, okay " Harry cupped his face giving him an understanding smile. Draco looked at harry for a moment before he nodded. Harry smiled before he placed a chaste kiss over Draco's lips , intertwining their hands and walking them into the greenhouse.
When they spent the entire night over the rooftop, watching movie, drinking, eating and eventually having the best sex, they realised that it was the most perfect night they could've asked for. Draco definitely didn't need to make reservations for Harry or buy him expensive gifts, he just needed Harry to know that he'd go over and beyond for him and that's what made it all perfect. The perfect combination of things is not materialism, it's people. Besides there Can be no perfection without flaw, so someday you just have to fuck it up or let it fuck up to realise there's beauty in flaws.
" of course Harry's the flaw and I'm the beauty " Draco chuckled as the told their friend's the story. Harry sat on his laps rolled his eyes, slapping him over the chest playfully.
" I'm the beauty, he's the flaw " Harry rolled his eyes again
" could you guys be anymore cheesy ?" Pansy rolled her eyes at the cringe worth couple.
Harry pouted before he said " no " and then he deliberately sloppily kissed Draco for a good measure.
And pansy groaned, but she of course knew, love like this doesn't happen twice and she was happy for them.

Day 24- concealment charms | Day 26- after all this time, always the same
After all this time, always the same
Prompt used- kissing the top of other's head| harry and draco finally meet each other years later at a memorial gallery, discovering some buried promises |
" I actually did not know Colin was this good " Harry said impressed as they walked the gallery
" really, who knew that kid was really good " Ron hummed.
" i miss that kid " Harry said as he drown in reminiscents of everyone who died in the war
" I am sure it would mean a great deal that you're here Harry. He always looked upto to you, he lived a nice life " Denis smiled at harry before he departed to he other batch of visitors. It was almost 10 years after war when one day a bunch of Hogwarts student's had received an invitation to the colin memorial gallery. Dennis, his brother had managed to construct certain photographs Colin had taken before he died and decided to put it into his memorial. Apparently Colin always wanted something like that, but his gallery Would've been incomplete if the people he had photographed had not shown up, so this was the reason why a bunch of Hogwarts student's had been given a free pass as a contribution to his memory. Harry was however saddened by the absence of colin. After all this time he still misses all those who died a lot. He learnt it the hard way that he will probably never forget any of them but he can manage to live with it.
It was however surprising how amazingly brilliant Colin's skills were. Nobody knew he had even taken their pictures secretly and it were all too great.
" hey, theres us " Ron said a little too loudly, much to anyone's liking. Harry gave them all a small apologetic smile before he joined Ron to see the photograph hanging over the wall of him, Ron and Hermione.
" seems like a different era, doesn't it ?" Ron nostalgically said.
Hermione nodded besides him as she put her head over Ron's shoulder. 10 years and they're still in love like they were when they were kids. Harry had always been fond of their relationship, not because it's his friends but because of everything it was built upon, the love they have is just for each other, and there probably had never existed other who had walked upon earth who they'd love them more than they loved each other.
" there's you " Ron suddenly pointed a small picture on the bottom
" oh yeah- that's me " harry carefully looked at his solo photograph. He wasn't particularly attentive, looking in some other direction as if he was watching out for something.
" that's forbidden forest " Hermione peeped carefully at the picture
" It might be the courtyard " Harry interjected as he took a few steps away to look at a few more pictures to avoid their questions.
" but harry I'm sure it's forbidden forest, it's the same place where sir- where you fought those dementors, I'm sure " Hermione egged on
" I'm not saying it might not be, might be. I wandered off a lot during 5th year but I'm pretty sure it must've been just the courtyard, Colin wouldn't probably enter the forest " Harry made a point with raised eyebrows. Hermione didn't seem to believe yet nodded forcefully, dropping the matter.
" there's a tons of pictures of you guys here " Someone said from behind Harry and before he had time to register to who it was, his fingers were already intertwined with someone and by the touch, he just knew it was Ginny.
" well he was quite a fan of me " harry smirked at his fiance.
" but still. It's like you were his personal models. Gotta agree though, he was great " Ginny said as she looked at the wall in front of them.
" he was " Harry hummed and walked alongside the rest of the gallery with them.
It wasn't until Ginny got bored of looking at plain walls just with pictures, she left to chat with other people. Hermione and Ron had collected themselves to the other part of the gallery, conversing with a few people. That meant Harry was left alone and he found it quite relieving even if he loved all of them.
He had reached the last of the gallery when his eyes fell upon the same blonde head he had abstained himself from seeing in years. Hundreds of flashbacks flashed back as he tried not to stare at him. It had been years yet even now if Harry passed by him, he'd know he still smells the same. As if he too had sensed Harry's presence, he looked away from the picture to his direction. They only locked eyes for a moment, a moment of weakness before Harry nodded and walked away. He sighed as he walked away, it has been so long, so long yet this feeling doesn't change. He thought staying away would change but it hadn't helped, not a lot to be precise.
Harry walked away deeper in the gallery until he reached the last of halls and stopped there, right there at the last picture. It was the last picture Colin had clicked after which only his broken camera's were set. Harry would be lying if he said he wasn't stunned to see the last picture. It was so weirdly ironic how the last photograph from Colin's collection was the picture marked with the symbolic representation of end of certain other things. Harry longingly stared at the picture, the moment running on his mind like a music reel
" this seems nice doesn't it ?" He asked
" it's more than nice Draco " Harry had replied
" Harry- i-" but he closed his mouth
" what ?" Harry asked him to continue when he was rendered speechless
" nothing " Draco sighed as he leaned back on the tree
" go on, tell me " Harry said as he climbed forward towards him
Draco stared at him long enough as though he was memorising harry deep within his heart.
" you're going to love me the same, right ?" He finally asked.
Harry stared at him, more confused than ever before he cupped Draco's face and said " of course Draco, always the same way "
" even if I do the most wrong in the world ?" Draco asked a strange shadow of sadness covering his eyes, obstructing Harry from reading his eyes.
" you- I- I-"
" it's hard to say ?" Draco asked almost hurt
" Draco, I believe you. I love you, I'll always love you the same way but the definition of most wrong depends on a lot of things but I believe in you, I know you wouldn't do anything that would be the most wrong thing to me in the world" Harry gave him a comforting smile . When Draco didn't say anything he climbed into Draco's lap and rested his head against his Chest, hearing the rapid heartbeats.
" you're afraid of something Draco " Harry said as he analysed his heart rate
" I'm afraid of the ruins " Draco truthfully answered because he was aware of everything he was supposed to be doing.
" ruins ?" Harry asked confused, craning his neck up to look at him, only to find Draco looking far away. He seemed lost.
" we can never be wholly together Harry, I'm always afraid, every moment of my life when I'm with you..I'm afraid you'll wake up from this dream and realise it's all ruins " Draco answered, his lips trembling a bit. Harry snuggled in closer to his chest, he knew he was right..
" you're not a ruined man Draco and this isn't ruins to me " Harry Answered
" am I not ?" Draco asked looking hurt
" y- you're not a ruined man but even if you are, you are my ruined man and I promise to love you the same way, everyday even if this doesn't work out, you get me ?" Harry asked empathetically.
" you must be a fool to fall in love with me " Draco finally said after a few minutes smiling down at harry.
Sensing the light tone Harry smiled up at him " then I am your fool "
" I'd rather never wake up from this dream " Draco smiled at harry lovingly then kissed on the top of his head and just then they heard a shuttering sound, startling them awake from their moment.
If only harry had known what was to happen, he'd had never gotten up and ran for the sound but he had and it had ruined millions of memories that could've been made.
" it's a beautiful picture" a familiar voice said behind Harry. He didn't need to turn around to know who it belonged to, he had grown up Being fond of it.
" while It lasted " Harry replied turning his head to find Draco was now standing next to him
" broken promises, some thing huh"
" I know I kept mine " Harry whispered avoiding looking Draco in the eye
" did you ?" Draco retaliated
" I always did " Harry replied more seriously now than before.
" oh hey, it's the same picture from your albums Harry- didn't see you there malfoy, g-good to see you " Ron suddenly appeared from behind them
" you never really talk about him. One boyfriend huh " Ron added Patting Harry on his back.
" it's because of the ruins " Harry replied smiling at Ron.
Draco turned his head towards Harry that it almost snapped. Harry had already been looking at him when he did, and for a moment just for a moment, everything had vanished from the room except them. The people here didn't matter, it was just them, finally away in their isolation Just with each other without their ruins. It was a moment of weakness where they smiled at each other knowingly that after all this time, always the same.
" Harry, it's your boyfriend from sixth year, the one in the album-"
" Draco, it's the picture from the album, your boyfriend-"
Astoria and Ginny's simultaneously said.

" I still think you should get the white paint, it'd be a nice contrast " harry said as he carried draco's shopping bags with him
" and I've told you, white is not my colour. Besides it gets dirty easily " draco replied as he hustled with bags behind harry. Harry looked over his shoulder to see if Draco was fine, giving him a firm nod harry turned around to realise they've reached his door.
" I'm sorry I didn't know you had to play with mud in your living room " harry rolled his eyes
" very funny potter " Draco rolled his eyes and got ahead of harry to unlock the door. He struggled with getting keys out of his pocket.
" where is it ?" Harry huffed
Draco blinked at harry before he pushed his waist towards harry to let him take out keys. Harry propped all the bags in one hand before reaching down draco's pockets, wriggling his fingers to find the keys.
" can you wear any more tight pants " harry rolled his eyes as he finally grasped the keys
" it's called fashion potter but then again you obviously don't understand fashion at all, coming from your baggy clothes" draco rolled his eyes as he got behind harry to let him open up the door.
" I have fashion sense for your information malfoy, I just happen to wear what I'm comfortable in " harry answered as he pushes the door open and just as they entered his flat the lights went off.
" Merlin's sake- I'll get the lights " draco huffed as he left all the things on the kitchen isle and walked away. Harry too kept the things on the isle and locked the door.
" Malfoy, are you sure you're not creating light ?" Harry sarcastically called as he looked through the bags for his wand.
" you do realise you're quite funny potter " draco called out from some room. Harry smiled at the thought of how draco always wanted to give harry a come back but could never find anything good enough for it, so he always struck with the funny line.
" well the lights are out. I'm gonna go check with the neighbors- potter- where are you ?" Draco said as he walked into the kitchen himself but because of no light he couldn't see anything.
" fuck " harry hissed as he stubbed his toe against the bottom of the isle.
" found you " draco said as he blindly tried to reach for harry.
" lumos " finally draco heard and soon saw Harry's wand in his hands.
" I'm gonna go check with the neighbour " draco said as he searched for his wands in the bags
" well you do that, I'll go downstairs and try to check the power supply box and probably stop by my flat to see if I have any torches or candles down there " harry said as he crossed the kitchen, retrieving his keys from the pocket and walking out of the door.
" don't take too long " draco said almost worried. Harry turned around to see Draco with a little Curious frown before he nodded and left.
Once draco realised that the whole block was out because of the transformer problem from the power supply unit, he decided to tell Harry once he returned but he seemed to be taking too long and he simply couldn't wait for harry all alone in the dark especially when he couldn't find his wand. So he walked downstairs towards the power supply unit of the building. He pushed open the door without a creek and searched for harry. He followed the sound coming from the other side and cautiously made his way towards the sound.
" fuck " draco exasperated when he felt something brush against his leg. He looked down to see it was only his other leg.
" stupid potter " draco hissed under his breath and walked further inside.
And suddenly draco crashed with something and fell down, only to realise he had collided with someone and now they were on top of him. He recognised by the smell of the person that it was harry.
" potter" draco whispered not making a move to push him over from above him.
" you scared the fucking shit out of me " he hissed
" well if I wasn't sure until now, I'm sure it's you now " draco rolled his eyes and pushed harry off him.
Harry stood up and brushed off his clothes, offering a hand to draco, who subtly rejected.
" wheres your wand ?" Harry asked as he looked down over the ground for his own.
" I couldn't find it " draco answered as he brushed off his own clothes " where's yours ?"
" I lost it when you crashed into me, I can't find it without a light source and it's bloody dark down here " harry replied.
" yeah I asked the whole block's out. Some problem at the main power unit " draco informed.
" well, if that's the case. We should go back up and look for candles at my place, I'm sure you don't have any " harry said still looking down for his wand.
" what about your wand ?" Draco asked but his voice sounded distant. Harry waved his hand in the air to reach for him but couldn't get a grasp of him.
" let's go find candles first and then come back here to look for it " harry finally decided" where the hell even are you ?" He added
" right next to you, you idiot " he still sounded distant.
" Malfoy, step forward, you aren't around me" harry told him as he stepped forward to reach for him. He heard some footsteps coming towards him.
" where the hell are you !" Draco hissed as he tried reaching for harry until he finally did.
" I'm never losing you in the dark " harry sarcastically said
" and why's that ?" Draco asked still holding onto Harry's shirt
" because you're a baby- let's go up now " harry said as he reached for draco's hands and pulled him forward to walk.
" I can walk on my own " draco scowled as he walked along with harry
" I am sure. It's for not losing you or you'll wind up getting lost and crying yourself to sleep down here " harry replied as he pushed open the door blindly and walked past it with draco still holding his hands.
" do you always have to be so sarcastic or its your inbuilt ability to Always annoy people " draco rolled his eyes
" a bit of both " harry chuckled.
They finally reached the stairs and carefully going up, harry made sure draco wasn't falling. It was a simple gesture of showing he cared.
When they finally reached Harry's floor, they struggled getting inside since he couldn't find the key hole.
" I miss my wand " draco huffed as harry still jingled with his keys.
" no wonder you screwed up your muggle studies practicals " harry rolled his eyes " aha" harry excitedly said as he finally pushed open the door.
" I did not screw up my muggle studies practicals. It's just muggle have to do everything the hard way. Like right now if we had a wand, we could've simple said alohomora and the door would've been open" draco explained feeling for harry in the dark realising harry had dropped his hands as soon as they had walked into his flat, a small amount of disappointment washing over him.
" I'll get the candles and lighters " harry said as he walked into the kitchen and started looking carefully for candles and lighters in the drawer.
" harry, can you hurry up " draco finally said after a few minutes in silence. Harry stopped dead in his movements, he knew Draco only uses his first name when he was actually troubled and now was one of the moments.
" I'm trying to find, don't worry " harry replied and began looking for it again until he finally found the candles and the lighter both and finally lit it up.
" Merlin, finally " draco sighed as he jumped down from the counter and reached for harry until he realised what he was doing and created a distance, a strange awkwardness washing over them.
" well " harry raised his eyebrows " lets go and look for my wand then and then we'll go back to your place "
Draco nodded and walked Behind harry.
" or you could simply go upstairs and wait for me while I go-"
" I'll come with you " draco interjected quickly.
Harry looked at Draco a bit concerned " I didn't know you were afraid of the dark "
" I'm not " draco protested. But harry knew better, so he nodded and dropped the matter. Once they had finally collected Harry's wand from the power house and walked back to draco flat and light bunch of other candles and set them over every other table to keep the light burning since the electricity wasn't returning for long as they were aware of.
"and since they collected grains all summer for winters they weren't short of food " harry recited as he chewed on his minimalistic sandwich
" but then what happened of the grasshopper? Did he die ?" Draco asked Curiously, his legs tucked beneath Harry's thighs as he was leaned against the window pane
" no, because the ants shared their food with him. That's the thing about the fable, grasshopper was stupid not to store anything saying that won't need it possibly and ants worked hard enough all Summer yet they cared for him and they didn't wanted him to die so they shared " harry told him.
" that's interesting " draco frowned as he looked out of the window pondering about the fable harry had just recited
" it's all about sharing and Caring. That's basically what it's established upon " harry told him looking at Draco fondly
" I wish someone read these things to me when I was a kid " draco's tone suddenly changed to a melancholic voice. Harry stared at Draco Long enough to understand what was running inside his head. Sure they hadn't been friends for long but they understood each other much more than any other of their friends did, which was surprisingly nice.
" I know what you mean " harry calmly said as he looked outside watching over the dim lights blinking from far away.
" you do ?" Draco asked his head whipping in Harry's direction.
Harry turned and smiled at Draco "when I was a kid I didn't know how my parents had actually died. I spend days wondering how would it feel like to be with them. The world can read all these things to you but when someone who cares for you, reads them for you, it feels different. Almost as if it's not a fable you know, like you're living it, you're actually there. It's just-"
" better " draco finished off Harry's sentence smiling. Harry smiled at him then nodded, this was exactly what he wanted to say.
They stared at each other long enough, just smiling in silence. It felt nice, it felt too nice for either of them.
" you know, now I think I won't be so worried about losing you in the dark " harry smirked
" and why is that ?" Draco asked sliding back further into the window pane.
" because of your hair. It shines too bright in the moon. Like moon dancing on your head- hey it's like a song lyric " harry chuckled.
" I - I can't even with you- you know what harry, you aren't even that funny " draco rolled his eyes, restraining himself to give him a smile.
" come on, it was funny " harry scrunched his nose smiling
" no it wasn't " draco bit the inside of his lip to keep himself from smiling but harry wasn't having it, he kept poking draco lightly on his sides repeating that it was funny.
" it wasn't " but draco had broken into a smile and as if to cover it up he picked up a pillow and threw it in Harry's face
" you- you are dead Malfoy " harry gasped. Draco pressed his lips in a thin line over Harry's empty threats, which seemed empty until harry too threw a pillow at Draco's face.
" Merlin- harry stop " draco exasperated laughing. Harry gave one last throw before draco almost fell down until harry caught him.
" look what you did, I could've fallen down " Draco gasped
" as if. The most you Would've fallen would be on the floor " harry rolled his eyes
" besides I caught you" harry added. Draco's expression softened until he started laughing at what had just happened, harry soon laughing along. It was a sweet memory to enclose in their hearts, to lock it away, laughing away in the dark with no one but them. They probably still kept smiling at each other until the last candle died out and draco immediately grasped Harry's hands.
" it's all fine " harry reassured as he picked up his wand and casted a lumos.
They sat there holding hands, staring at each other in the dark, something had changed in the air, it wasn't so heavy before or it didn't feel as Warm before. There was something different in the way they stared at each other, something that made them want to extinguish the distance between each other, something that wanted them to pull each other close, something that wanted them to feel each other in the dark until the lights came back and broke them from their moment.
Clearing his throat harry stood up from the window sill and looked down to avoid Draco's eyes, who himself was assessing what had happened and looked anywhere but harry.
" oh - it's almost 10, I think I should- go " harry said awkwardly as he clapped his hands together only once and tip toed in his feets.
Draco abruptly stood up, being as awkward as harry " yeah- you're probably right" draco said in a strange whiny voice.
" yeah- so I- should go then " harry finally looked at Draco, who nodded at harry and they walked off to the door.
" I'll see you- well soon " draco said as he scratched the back of his neck nervously
" yeah- soon " harry pressed his lips in a thin line, not Making a move to go, just standing there staring at Draco again, who himself was staring until they heard the keys from Harry's hands drop on the ground, which surprisingly none of them knew he had in hands.
" I should go now " harry repeated and this time finally after clenching a smile he walked out of the door. Draco shut the door behind him and pressed his back against him sighing, his hands running over his face in exhaustion from something he didn't know. He remained there thinking of the awkward goodbye until he stopped thinking and turned around and almost opened the door until he decided not to and walked away.
10 seconds later draco returned and opened the door to find Harry's hand raised as if he was about to knock.
" you forgot something ?" Draco asked pushing one of his hands down into his pocket.
" uh yeah- I think- I left my wallet" harry hesitated
" oh- we'll look for it " draco said as he pulled the door further open to let harry in.
" Where'd you see it last ?" Draco asked as he shut the door and walked Behind harry into the living room.
"Yeah- I think- fuck- I have my wallet- I just- I couldn't stop thinking about doing this " and with that harry pressed his lips against draco. He immediately welcomed Harry's lips over his as if it was an Invitation he had been waiting for to be answered. Pushing his hands in Harry's hair, he pulled him further into him, almost hitting the back wall but Harry's hand had kept him from colliding into anything else. It wasn't a rushed kiss, but it was something they both found a relief in as if it was something it was something they both had been waiting for long to happen but didn't know of it.
Once they separated for air, draco pressed his head against harry's and breathed in deeply " yo- wow- I think I'll fall again "
Harry smiled whispering " don't worry, I'll catch you" and with that he kissed him again.

" oh Honey, good you're home. We are kind of short on groceries so we need to shop- why do you like you can kill me right now ?" Harry raised his head to look at Draco entering carrying his side bag and look exhausted.
" I - can - kill - Someone right now" Draco frustratingly grabbed onto the air, growling
" okay- well I have a knife, I don't think it will work but I'm sure we can work with that. You kill, I will dispose the body- not Funny. Alright. I'm almost done, sit down, and we'll talk alright "

" I'm done " Harry announced taking off his apron and keeping it over the counter
" when were you going to tell me that I have been temporarily suspended from apparating ?" Draco looked up at harry, his chin against the table.
" what- I thought you knew. The letter came in like a day ago, it was right over your coffee table. It said it's just a temporary thing with random people because of certain case they're working on " Harry explained
" well- as my husband- you are supposed to inform me such thing " Draco rolled his eyes
" well I thought you must've read it- you know what nevermind, just tell me what's got your knickers in twist?" Harry sat down in front of him and passed him a bottle of water. Draco huffed out air, raising his head and finally started with his rant.
" so it's a normal day, I get free from work, I decided to apparate and Just as I apparate, I'm pulled into the ministry and they start explaining me everything and obviously because you didn't tell me about the disapparation temporal ban, I fought with them until they showed me the damn letter and I ultimately lost the argument and you know how much I hate losing but then I thought let's be like my gentlemen husband so I walk off the ministry, then I finally thought let's take a damn car from the ministry but then I get to know that my damn gentlemen of a husband has denied using his ministry car privileges to donate the money to the orphan- when the hell were you going to tell me ?"
" well I thought- I think I told you-"
" doesn't matter. So I thought let's travel the damn muggle way, so I take the bus-"
" oh jeez-"
" yes jeez, well I've never travelled like that before, I didn't assume it to be that bad but boy oh boy, I had to sit beside a fucking stinky man who I am assuming was smoking drugs right beside. And it's not even the worst part, I can't get out of the seat because a huge man blocks my entrance and that man didn't feel a damn thing even when I punched him to move away. So I was stuck and you wanna know the worst part, one fucking hour, I was stuck for one fucking hour until I get off the damn station five miles away from here and it's not even that, I'm walking home thinking about how it's probably the shittiest day I've had until a car with some fucking teenagers threw some damn fucking milkshake all over me- this was the worst possible fucking day ever " Draco almost sobbed in frustration.
" oh dear " harry immediately gets up and hugs Draco, kissing the top of his head " I had no idea. Why didn't you just flooed ?"
" I- that didn't fucking came in my mind- Harry " Draco whined
" shush- it's alright.. you forgot honey, you were already dealing with a hard day. Merlin,you know what, let's not sulk. I'll go and draw a bath for you, how does that sound ? " Harry asks raising Draco's face by his chin.
Draco almost weeps but nods not leaving Harry yet.
" honey- you gotta let go of me if you want me to draw that bath. I also need to stir the pasta " Harry interjected after several minutes of Draco not leaving him. He groaned and finally let go off harry.
" just go get ready for a Bath alright " Harry said as he immediately turned off the stove. Nodding Draco walks into the bedroom and harry practically ran to the bathroom to prepare his bath.
When almost done with drawing a bath, Harry walks out, and waiting outside the door for Draco to come who did, finally after undressing with just a bathrobe on.
Draco had just entered the bathroom when he calls out to harry
" aren't you going to join ?"
" no- you know I just had one "
" fine- I come home from a stressful day hoping my husband would have a nice bath-"
" Merlin, get in, I'm joining " and with a grin Draco went inside. Harry shook his head smiling to himself about his melodramatic husband, but then he knew he loved him even after everything..
And so harry finally did join Draco into the bathtub, with Draco's back pressed against his chest, enjoying the warm bath. Harry took the shampoo in his hand, and softly rubbing Draco's scalp, who moaned in pleasure.
" love, I really am sorry for how terrible your day was " Harry kissed his neck from behind, his hands roaming Draco's, Washing him.
" it's not your fault " Draco responded turning slightly to only face Harry.
" but I should've told you about the letter and the ministry car thing-"
" it's alright Harry, I didn't check my coffee table, my fault and I know exactly why you don't use the ministry affiliated car- I'm your husband Harry, of course I understand everything you do, even if you don't tell me any of it "
Harry looked at Draco with a new found appreciation for his adorable husband who was probably the most understanding man to walk upon earth.
" how did I land up with you ?" Harry smiled, wrapping his hands loosely around Draco's, pressing soft kisses all over his neck.
" the real question is how did I land up with such an amazing husband ?" Draco gave Harry a genuine smile turning around so he straddled him " I feel like I don't appreciate you enough. I mean in front of you I look like a complete prat..all I do is create drama while you look after the house, take care of the bills and most importantly, take care of me everyday"
" Draco- you take care of me and you do things- like every Sunday you bring me a new breakfast in bed, you do my clothes shopping and always get the right size, you praise me every night and never force me to do anything. And I know you are disappointed with my job, you never tell me on it, I know you want me to take a safer job, I know you do but you let me make my own decisions. And you've taken care of me so much when I had terrible days. You're too good for me Draco, but I think we both think we are too good for each other and that's what makes us so perfect for each other " Harry smiled lightly brushing Draco's cheek with his thumb
" how do you know exactly what to say at the right moment " Draco smiled at harry before leaning down to kiss him over the lips..
" you taste like wine " Draco teased
" well I did try which wine should we have for dinner, since you know you had shit day " Harry mumbled against Draco's lip, his eyes stills closed.
" god- you are just perfect " Draco mumbled before deepening the kiss, his body pressed against that of Harry's, his hands lost in the brunettes hair.
" you are perfect Draco- fuck I love you" Harry breathed, his hands roaming over the back of Draco pulling him closer, Deepening the kiss.
And they made out until the water ran cold and harry picked Draco bridal style and walked them to the room, helping him get dressed and finally having dinner with the finest me in the entire Britain he could find to settle down with.

" But when the tides reaches a high, they are meant to go down and crash onto the surface and when the time came, they crashed. They crashed like the biggest tides in the world to cast a holocaust over anyone who found a way "
" you still have it ?" Draco asked, his fingers wavering over the rough sketch he made years ago of harry himself.
" yeah, its just nice " harry replied turning to work again
draco scrunched his eyebrows, never having thought harry would have kept something like that from years ago, assuming he had really just forgotten about them but then again, it might've been because he simply just liked it and wanted to keep it.
" i still do drawings by the way, i've done plenty of scorpius " draco cleared his throat as he sat back down again
" i'm sure they must be great then " harry offered a small smile before fetching the tea for both of them and passing one cup over to draco.
" oh yeah " Draco bobbed his head as he picked up the tea from the saucer and slowly started drinking it.
" that's a nice picture of you and Ginny " Draco pointed to the small frame kept over the fireplace.
" oh, yeah, it's back from when we weren't dating " Harry replied as he too awkwardly drank his own tea, his mind going places.
" you guys looked good together. Even on the wedding "
" but you never came to the wedding " Harry furrowed his eyebrows.
" yeah- I- uh- I didn't. I saw the pictures though " Draco stuttered..
" why did you guys broke up, separated that is anyways ?" Draco asked curiously as he leaned over onto the table.
" well " Harry sighed as he held the cup still in his hand, enjoying the warmth it provided " when we first got together, we thought we know what we were doing. It was all good and games and fun but then we both got burdened into responsibilities. I liked working for DMLE but I had to quit because of the coming baby, Ginny's safety and everything. Then there was one thing after another. If you ask both of us right now, we'd probably you know just say that we don't think we thought all this through, but then there were so many- what do you call that word ?" Harry scrunched his face, his finger in the air as he thought for the Apt word.
" expectations ?" Draco asked
" yes. Exactly " Harry said a little too loudly.
" I know what you mean " draco said as he looked down into his empty cup..
Harry sighed, watching Draco. Expectations was one thing that had possibly ruined everything good ironically in both their lives and neither was aware of how. In the time harry started spending with Draco again, he can feel himself smiling late at night before sleeping, his heart hammering against his chest like right now and the eagerness to see him again, it was all the same like before. The rush, the energy, the spark, but only this time they weren't hormonal teenagers and harry was almost sure he didn't wanted to go down that road again.
" well, It's getting pretty dark. I should go, I mean we should go " Draco abruptly stood up, almost falling behind.
" bu- but scorpius is still sleeping ?" Harry frowned.
" he's not a heavy sleeper. Besides I don't have to wake him up to go all the way back. It's like a minute travel so.."
" well- If that's what it is. I'll see you again, whenever these kids want to meet up then" Harry clapped his hands together, quietly before placing them over his hips.
" absolutely " Draco awkwardly replied and walked into the living room.
" right, see you then" Draco finally said after he had picked up scorpius.
" okay. See you soon " Harry replied and Draco flooed back to his place..
Harry finally released the breath he hadn't know was consuming his down, in relief, or so he assumed.

" please, I beg you. Can't you do that for a friend " albus practically begged
" I'm telling you albus, I don't know who it was " Ron pestered as he walked with him to Harry's restaurant bar.
" please uncle Ron. I have some really nice chocolates from Chicago, I'll give you it " albus bribed
" o- what? You're not actually bribing me and if you are, you're forgetting, your mom bought those chocolates and she's my sister. So I already have them- Aha " Ron exclaimed
" uncle Ron please. It's really important. Don't you want to see dad happy ?" Albus tried the emotional manipulation.
Ron sighed, stopping in between and leaning down to be on eye level with him " there's one thing you should know albus, I love how you're determined to know who was his first love but it's not my place to tell. Harry and I have been through so much and I've sworn to his secrecy and I'll never give it up, even if someone have to kill me for it. But you should know, there's nothing you can do to bring him back. Harry moved on ages ago and some stories are better buried, alright. I can't see him that crushed again. Do you understand me ?"
Albus sighed, nodding.
" was he really that hurt ?"
" the worst I had ever seen him. He wasn't himself for days. He didn't write back properly over summer, he didn't talk about it. He never did after that. But Remember this, first love stings bad and it was soul crushing for him. And I'm sure you don't ever want to see him like that "
" I just don't get it, why didn't he go back to him after the war and Everything ?" Albus asked as the continued walking
" he did, I think. He never told me what happened that day but I just knew it was over " Ron shook his head. Albus looked up at Ron, sort of respectfully like he had never seen before, mainly because of how great of a friend he was but sort of disappointed that he'd never find out who he loved.
" thanks for dropping him by. It's just been such a busy day and everything" Harry huffed as he wiped off his hands with a tissue and disposing it off, when they entered.
" it's no problem... Although he did seem pretty interested in your ex love life " Ron smirked
" what, I swore to his secrecy. Not yours "
" whatever. You're not such a great uncle " albus rolled his eyes at him and walked through the back doors.
" he does seem pretty interested, doesn't he ?" Harry asked as he leaned over on the counter
" he does. Although I think it's about time he must've been and what do you know, he's not even wrong "
" what do you mean ?" Harry asked completely losing track as of how albus was infact right.
" I mean- look I just look out for you and he's not wrong to want to see you happy again. And I'm sure his ways are a bit out of the box but maybe you should get back into the dating thing you know. And I do know who you're hanging out with recently. I- just think, maybe a second time won't be so bad " Ron shrugged suggestively
Harry blinked, probably out of slight frustration " I appreciate this Ron but I'm fine by myself and I am not going to date him again. Those feelings are in the past, I don't feel for him the same way whatsoever and if that even be, he's in a very different place and I am pretty sure he isn't looking for anything that sort, so you and everyone else can Shut up about going back to him. It's over, he's moved on and so have I "
Ron disappointedly nodded " well I tried. I'm gonna go then?"
" I don't mean to be mad but lately albus is just pestering me so much. Ginny hasn't been such a sweetie about it either and I'm just tired of hearing it you know and you understand me right, I just need some space from all this " Harry sighed
" mate, you don't have to explain to me. Of course I understand you " Ron patted Harry's shoulder before giving it a light squeeze and letting it go when it came for him to leave.
" I'll see you then " harry said one last time
" yeah " and Ron was almost out of the door when he turned around like everyone else lately.
" Harry?"
" yeah ?" Harry raised his eyebrows
" are you sure you've moved on ? Because it doesn't seem like it "
Harry opened his mouth to say something but couldn't. The truth was, did he really knew the answer to it, he didn't know. It was easier not to be sure sometimes but it did gave him sleepless nights.
" maybe second time won't be so bad. Just something to think about " and with that he exited. Harry sighed, pushing his hair back out of his face.
Maybe second won't be so bad after all, but did he really wanted to have a second time, he didn't know.
______________________________
2 months later of meeting every weekend without denial, Harry was set to light himself on fire. Metaphorically. It was hard to resist Draco after one point. How could have Harry possibly thought that he won't feel this way again, when this was Draco he was talking about. How could had Harry possibly overseen that Draco was the most handsome, the most intellectual, the most kind, the most interesting, the most understanding, the most likable, the most pleasant, the most elegant, the most perfect in every solicited book to ever exist.
Not Only did it make him awkward but left him excited for every meet. Layer by layer, Draco was shedding off his walls, just like all those years ago and it was becoming incredibly hard to not ruin everything by saying the wrong thing. The problem was, Harry remained in denial of the fact. Either he was trying to cage his heart from all wars or he was trying to refuse himself of being capable of establishing those feelings again.
And the invite didn't help either.
" so pansy is keeping a divorce party then ?"
" yep and I have an extra invite, so maybe if you wanted, you can come along ?" Draco shrugged
And there goes his heart.
" uh sure "
And so 2 weeks later Harry found himself dressed up for pansy's divorce party. And when he reached, of course he should've known, he was going to get crushed. Not Only Harry was left alone to drink alone at the bar but also watched Draco get hit on by a girl somewhere far across him, forcing him to drown into his memories.
" you said you wanted to meet me ?" Harry asked as he went by and sat down next to Draco on the astronomy tower.
" wanted to see you off last time before we went other ways " Draco offered him a small smile
Harry understandably nodded looking forward at the view of the mountain's covered in lush green forest and darkness of 1 am.
They remained silent, letting themselves get soaked in the last moments spent on the top as the stars met the moon and howling of the wind added to their chronicle of moments. It was strange how relaxing it was to be there in each other's presence. He wanted to hold Draco's hands, spread warmth to him but then he knew, they were the past. How it was officially ruined what they had..
" what are you going to do after school ?" Draco asked finally
" i have absolutely no idea " Harry shrugged
" you ?"
" no idea " Draco replied.
Harry looked at Draco. Looking would be an understatement, he was memorising him, again. Moments like these didn't happen often anymore and while it lasted Harry wanted to memorise everything he possibly could. Everything without a reason, until he had one.
" I'm getting engaged " Draco announced
And there it was, the crash. The harmony of music that played in Harry's life took the unexpected sad turn with heavy intense climax. The violins grew much more intense, the piano grew soft, the cello became sweet. And everything, crushed his insides. It was the incapability of his humane body to produce any reaction. But the adrenaline jumped up, his breath became stuck as his heart beat louder against his chest, how his fingers twitched and lastly how he fought tears.
" who is it ?"
" Astoria " he replied.
Harry nodded " I'm happy for you then "
" are you really ?" Draco asked finally looking at his previous love.
" I am " Harry didn't dare to look at him. He couldn't. They didn't talk anymore. They sat for another hour in silence watching the moon shift it's position, the wind blowing the leaves away, the star twinkling brighter and Harry's heart falling in a deep pit.
When it was finally time to leave, Draco got up " you're not going to come ?"
" I'll stay here for a while, you go ahead "
And only with a nod when Draco left, Harry buried his face in his hand and let himself cry in the agony of losing the only person who bought out the best in him. He sat there crying, weeping in his hand, no one to cry with, no one to tell to, no one who'd understand. In the whole wide world, Harry felt alone but then again that's what he was, his whole life. Alone.
Broken once, Harry didn't wait for his heart to be crushed twice. He let himself drown into the understanding that he was all alone and let himself get carried away in the night until he had no more of him left to give and decided to leave.
He had only made it past the door when he heard Footsteps running behind him.
" Harry ?"
" what ?" Harry asked as he turned around
" you're leaving ?" He asked
" seems like it " Harry frowned
" without telling me ?" Draco asked
Harry could've simply lied but there he stood, having absolutely no idea how Harry had felt his whole life. How he wasted away wondering what Would've happened if he had ran back to Draco the moment he left him, how that night on the tower if Harry had told him how he felt. If.
" yes "
" why ?"
" because it hurts less"
Draco frowned.
" it hurts less when you don't know. When something's are better left unsaid "
And Draco finally realised.
" you said you were happy for me ?"
" was I ? Were you when I married Ginny ? I know you came to the wedding, I saw you, you know why, because in a crowd of thousands I still find you but you never came in. You saw me on the altar and left and never came back "
" what was I supposed to do? Come in and congratulate you ?"
" I did Draco. I came and congratulated you. I sat through your entire wedding, hurting myself seeing you getting married "
" and you didn't try to stop it "
" because you wanted it "
" why didn't you fight for me then ? Why didn't you come back ?" Draco asked, his voice crackling
" why didn't you ?" Harry repeated.
But Draco didn't answer, and Harry walked away. His heart heavy, again, by the same person. It was ironic how you can be so Madly in love with someone but more than often they are exactly the same person who hurts you, because that's love. Love is a wonder. Love is a cure. Love is symphony to music but love is pain. It always has been and will always be.
Harry drowned himself in his miseries that night, spending countless moments reading notes he got from Draco ages ago, drinking away his pain in wine, smiling at the presents Draco has given him. There was only a question of why. Why couldn't Harry move on ? It was so many years ago, he had been in love after that, he had dated people after that, he had been married after that but why was it he still loved the only man who caused him the most pain?
Meanwhile Draco cried himself to sleep, crying for how the day he told Harry he's getting engaged, he had cried before Harry had came and how he had cried right outside the astronomy tower in the pain of losing him. Crying because he knew he gave up too soon. Crying because how much he still loved Harry. Why couldn't he move on ? He'd have had a life after him yet all his life has been meaningless without him. If they say love only happens once, then for him it happened and it have lasted ages. He was desperate to move on but every night he thought to himself why couldn't he ? Had been years he saw him last but still love him. Why ?
But when the tides reaches a high, they are meant to go down and crash onto the surface and when the time came, they crashed. They crashed like the biggest tides in the world to cast a holocaust over anyone who found way.
Draco showed up at Harry's Footsteps with a beer in his hand, his clothes wet from the rain, his body shivering, and his eyes all red.
" what are you doing here Draco ? It's bloody cold outside, get in " Harry urgently said.
" no " Draco commanded
" what ? Let me get an umbrella then , you're soaked-"
" why didn't you fight for me ? Why didn't you keep the promise ? Why didn't you try to stop my wedding ? Why didn't you contacted me all these years ? Why didn't you ever write to me ? Why didn't you come back for me Harry, you promised you would " Draco sobbed
" Draco, this isn't the time. Just come inside and we'll talk this over later-"
" no, I need the Answers. Why didn't you come back for me like you said you would ?"
" Draco, you're soaking wet-"
" answer me harry !! Why didn't you ?" Draco yelled
" why Harry, why ? It have haunted me all these years and I want answers today because If I don't get them now, I never will " he cried, pushing his hair out of his face.
Harry stepped out of the door, decreasing the distance between both of them.
" why didn't you ? Why didn't you keep the promise ?" Harry asked
" Because you moved on, you moron " Draco agitatedly said, taking a few steps backwards
" I didn't. I never did " Harry outrageously replied
" oh really ? Because from what I remember you dated Ginny in 6th year "
" because I was hung up on you. And she knew it. It was spontaneous. I wanted to come back for you but you had done exactly everything that would've ripped you apart from me. I came back for you that night on the tower but you had moved on, you were getting engaged "
" and you never asked if I wanted it ? You selfish prat. I never wanted to get married. I never wanted to have that life but you just never came back for Me, fought for me. You never did. You went on, you moved on. You lived happily when I got stuck with a forced marriage "
" happy ? I have spent my life loving you Draco. Merlin knows why but I have wasted away in loving you knowing you'd never come back-"
" you never came back for me either"
" I did. Don't you dare blame it on me !! I came back for you when the war was over like I promised but it was you who kept pushing me away, getting on with Astoria. You promised me too that after everything was over, you'd come back to me but you didn't and I waited and guess what you never did. I had to force myself to move on. Be what people expected me to be and even if I did fight or would've wanted to fight, you'd had never done that "
" then why didn't you ask me ? Why didn't you-"
" because I couldn't. You looked happy " Harry yelled.
"I wasn't. I never was. How could you even think that ? Actually How the fuck would you even know that !! I was forced into a marriage with Someone who had a dying wish. You said I didn't fight, here I did fight, but I lost over and over again because you weren't by my side. Why would you know what it was like to be a death eater and being gay, my family hated me, the world hated me, Merlins sake I got death threat's !! I was on the losing side harry, always. I never thought you'd make it through the war, I was forced to move on because nobody would've accepted me. When I went to jail, I didn't thought I'd ever come back. I wanted to fight but you were the one who gave up. If you had struck with me for a little while I would've fought my entire life for you but you didn't stay. You have no idea what it felt like seeing you and Ginny in 6th year, it seemed you moved on and I had no one, not even a single fucking one. When I needed you the most, you were not there because you're a self righteous selfish prat. So there you go. I was not happy because Harry James potter you have ruined my life " draco smashed the beer bottle on the ground.
" then who's it to blame ? You gave up too Draco. You gave up very soon-"
" because you made me harry. You made me give up on you, on us "
" and I waited for you.. I waited years after the war for you to realise one day that I'm still in fucking love with you. If that day you hadn't said you were getting engaged Draco,I would've begged you on my knees to take me back.. do you even know how long I cried about it. Forced into a marriage right ? I was forced to watch Someone I loved whole heartedly marrying Someone else and I stayed, you didn't even stayed until the end of my wedding -"
" because I regretted it. There, that's what you want to hear right. I regret it Harry . I regret every decision I made. I regret I didn't fight for you, I regret that I never came back to you, I regret I broke the promise but you're no Saint Harry, if you hadn't moved on or made it seem like you did , I wouldn't had done anything like that. I regret giving us up. There, I've regretted my whole and I regret this very moment but I can't not sleep another night because I can't stop thinking about how the fuck you've hurt me so badly yet here I stand,still in love with you as much as I was the day you left me. You looked after yourself and other's, but you left me, you left me first Harry "
" you've ruined my life and yet I can't hate you " Draco cried in self destruction. Secrets he had held onto for so long, evaporated in the water's pouring down. His tears were running faster than the rain coming down on both of them. What love really is, it's pain.
Harry remained awestruck trying to figure out how to respond, to consume the secrets he had spilled, to reciprocate whatever he had said, understand that he too was to blame but it was too late and Draco was walking away. Too late. Too late.
And harry ran after him. He have wasted away himself in hopes that one day when the time will be right, he'd go back to him like he has promised on the day by the lake and if today was going to be that day, he wasn't putting it in vain " Draco wait "
" what ?" Draco asked exhaustingly wiping off his face.
" you're annoying and you're brilliant. You promised me you'd come back and you didn't, instead you got hitched and I did the same And we're terrible but I've lost you once and I can't do this again. You've ruined my life in worst ways possible but If that what it is, I want to ruin it. You're right, I'm a self Righteous selfish prat and I should've stayed by you, I should've never made it seem as if I had moved on but I too was hurting Draco because somewhere deep down I might've known you'd never come back but right now all I know is that one time my boyfriend told me to seize the day if I had to chance, and when I asked him when would I know to seize it, he told me I'll just know it and Draco today I know it. I'm sorry I didn't stop your wedding like that stupid romantic movies or I didn't tell you how much I loved you or how much I wanted you back when I should've and I've made those mistakes but not today. I've come soo far but I still seek you,I always will Draco. You are my sadness and you are my happiness, because-you and I, it's everything for me and I can't stand that I let you walk away, once again. I can't. I- just can't"
" you're a moron, you know that " Draco asked as he walked nearer Harry
" and you are too "
" and we're terrible at keeping promises "
" we are "
" but I've loved you. I still do "
" I do too "
And there no more left to say but do.. Draco kissed harry, again, years later and it still felt the same. It still gave him the sparks, it still made him feel like he was the brightest star, it still made him feel those butterflies in Stomach, it still made him feel like he'd live forever, it still made him feel like he didn't need the oxygen to breathe but needed Only him, it still made him feel like he was floating, it still made him feel. Everything was the same, yet everything was different. Harry was kissing him with Newfound regret and passion of being apart all these years, with the excitement of being able to do it again but the Romance had never left. It still left their hearts pounding, it still made them stand on their tiptoes to kiss, it still made them feel loved. And they did pour the love mixed with rain, finding in their perfect moment that they had been each other's ever since no matter what changed. No matter how many wars happened, or how many tragedies happened, They will possibly forever be each others and they were fine with it, after all if destiny was a thing, they were always destined to be together.
The next morning, Harry only woke up with a bed side note.
" would you come back to me ? Again ?"
" Draco, it's supposed to be will " Harry smiled as he looked at the man of his dreams standing on the doorway, with a cup of coffee in his hand
" it's would because that's my past asking you to come back. That notes from 8th year me "
" then the 8th year me would want to come back to you " Harry chuckled as he stood up and hugged his new beau.
" I've missed you " Draco kissed the top of his head, his one arm dangling Around Harry's waist.
" I still think it should be will "
" moron "
Lemme go cry in peace now. The best I could do. I have to say, this has been my favourite work of all time and I couldn't leave it with a sad note, it didn't make sense. There's probably loopholes btw. Happy reading.. and thank you for supporting through it all.

For @drarrymicrofic prompt : curiosity | manipulation| why do you only love me when I'm someone else's ? |
" you're back, again ?" Draco Whispers as he wandered in the library, Harry following him.
" and you know why" harry replies, placing the books in shelf just like him.
" Harry, I'm happy now. James makes me happy. There's nothing wrong with him, not this time alright. He's not like others " Draco sighs tilting his head at harry.
" he's not me "
Draco closes his eyes, there was his revelation once again " why do you only love me when someone loves me too ? " he asked in dead curiosity
" you don't miss something unless you don't have it Draco "
" I'm not falling for it again. You do this everytime and I will not fall for this again. You come here each time I get with someone new, tell me you love, sabotage my nice relationship and then you end up with another one of yours flings. I'm not falling for it. Not this time "
" I haven't seen anyone in weeks and you know it " Harry shrugged
" Harry, no " Draco refuses in hesitation. He never feared anything more than death but when it's Harry, he feared love. He fears that he'll fall and harry would fall out. It happens each time. Draco ruins his so called relationships to give harry another chance but only end up with a broken heart of a man who loved him, then didn't.
" I'm going to go " Draco sighed and walked away to the reception of the library, issuing another book.
" you're Draco ?" The lady asked
" I am, why ?" He furrowed his eyebrows in confusion
" someone left it for you. He told me to give it to you " she said as she handed him the book.
He unwraps the book and immediately broke into a smile " the rainbow fish "
" I remember you told me 5 years ago on your mother's funeral how she used to read it to you every night before Hogwarts and you loved it equally each day "
Draco rolled his eyes turning around to see Harry leaning over one of the bookshelf with a clever smile on his face " does James know that ?"
" promise me this time it's just you and me, that's it ? That this time you won't fall out, that this time if I give you a chance, you'll commit to it ? "
" cross my heart " Harry grinned.
" I'll break off with James. Meet me at my place at 8. Don't be late. If You're late, I'll never talk to you again. I challenge you to prove me wrong "
" challenge accepted "
And Draco walked off smirking to himself, knowing he had finally won.

" Draco is that you ?" Harry called out as he turned off the stove, walking out to see who walked into the flat.
" yeah " he sighs.
" ooh, that sounds terrible. Bad day at work huh ?" Harry asked as he took off the apron and threw it in the kitchen
" the most terrible day ever. It was all a mess, this new potioneer just fucked up each and every single of the potion claiming he was disturbed because of some family problem and I couldn't even yell at him because of that, then midway the potion making for st. Mungo's, my assistant fainted, basically spilling all of the potion we had been brewing for a week and above all my boss yelled at me for something I didn't even do and i- just can't . I'm done with the day " Draco looked he could almost cry.
" oh dear. That's bad " Harry sympathetically said as he walked upto Draco and gave him a friendly hug.
" i know the perfect remedy to fix your day " Harry suggested
" please, anything " Draco sighed taking off his coat and hanging it next to the door.
" go take a shower then, you stink of something really awful, like rotten pumpkin juice-"
" must be one of the potions " Draco rolled his eyes
" okay nevermind. Go. Take a shower. Food is done and I'll take care of the rest, yeah ?" Harry asked as he walked behind Draco and pushed him forward to walk to the bathroom.
" you're a great friend Harry " Draco sighed.
" I know I am. Now go " Harry patted Draco's back almost reaching the bathroom.
" whenever you're done " and with that Harry walked back into the kitchen, sighing to himself. This was again a lost chance.
" great friend " Harry scoffed to himself, disappointed. Shaking his head, he set his priorities to fixing his flatmate / best friend's mood right.
Done everything perfectly right, Harry chose the movie to watch, set the lightings to low, pizza on table, red wine for the mood and fluffy Blankets and of course pillows.
And woof.
" how could I forget you, snuffles " Harry scratched the dogs neck playfully " you're the perfect mood twister, now aren't you, aren't you "
" he definitely is " Draco walked in still looking tired..
" Jesus, even Voldemort would look better than you right now, not to mention without a nose "
" ha ha ha, very funny potter " Draco rolled his eyes and plopped onto the couch. Snuffles joining him on the sofa.
" I can't believe this dog. I gave him a name, I was the one who bought him, I take him to the vets, for walks, and even buy his favourite food and yet he loves you more than me " Harry whined as he plopped next to Draco watching him kiss the top of dogs head.
" well harry I am sort of irresistible" Draco smirked
" sod off malfoy " Harry rolled his eyes, shaking his head at the amusing joke.
" so what are we watching ?" He finally asked as snuffles got more comfortable into his lap.
" finding Nemo" Harry replied
" perfect " Draco relaxed further into the couch and harry turned on the movie.
" you don't wanna talk about it though ?" Harry asked
" This is much better. I'd rather not boil my blood by reciting again how shit my day was. Thanks for this by the way, you always know what to do " Draco gave Harry a smile , crossing his legs over the sofa, sitting more comfortably.
Passing the pizza, the wine, not to forget the spaghetti Harry made, Draco was full and was more comfortably invested into the movie, while harry was more invested in peaking glances at Draco watching the movie.
" can I lay on your lap ?" Draco suddenly asked.
With his heart beating a little louder and suddenly very much awareness of tongue in his mouth and the socks in his feets, he whispered a " yes "
And Draco got comfortable in Harry's lap, snuffles falling asleep through the movie over Draco's torso.
" i love this turtles dude part, They're much more cooler than anyone we know and the way they just say dude, gosh, coolest thing ever "
" aren't they ?" Harry chuckled as he lightly untangled Draco's soft hair with his calloused fingers
"okay tell me, if I had to one character from this movie who would I be ?" Draco asked suddenly looking up at from his lap.
" hm, that's a tricky one " Harry pouted thinking about the answer for a minute or two " i think you're the Nigel, the pelican "
" hey " Draco swatted Harry on his chest laughing " I don't have a big mouth "
" are you sure ? Have you seen yourself when you eat the brownies your mom sends " Harry laughed softly
Draco gasped " they're really good, okay. You don't underestimate them. You should try them by the way "
" well my dearest darling friend, I'd try if you'd leave me some, big mouth Nigel " Harry laughed but was immediately attacked by a pillow at his face.
" you're mean. I just had a terrible day " despite that fact, he couldn't resist laughing with Harry.
"oh sod off. You're not going to get my pity " Harry scoffed, still grinning at Draco, adjusting his spectacles.
" you're really an asshole " Draco rolled his eyes, glimpsing at the motioning movie.
" and yet you keep me around. You're the one who have Stockholm syndrome " Harry covered his face, and as anticipated he was smacked by a pillow in the face "ouch -"
" what, did I hit you too hard ?" Draco rose a few inches immediately
Harry's expression changed from being fake injured to snickering.
" I can't believe you -"
" always works " Harry laughed
" you- I can't believe you use that trick " Draco rolled off his eyes collapsing back into his lap
" and yet you fall for it everytime " Harry chuckled
" you know what, one of these days you're actually going to be hurt and I won't give a damn about you" Draco fake sneered at him
" oh is that so ?" Harry cooed in a baby voice, softly pinching Draco's cheek
" Harry- don't- "
" aww, you're angry " Harry continued in the baby voice
" don't- I said stop. Stop with the voice, it's annoying " draco desperately tried to swat Harry's hands away from his face, but he couldn't possibly entirely deny that he didn't like it.
" aww, Little pelican is angry " Harry pouted
" hey- I'm not little- you idiot " Draco smacked Harry with a pillow again, repeatedly almost sitting up in that process and getting through Harry defenseless ways of trying to protect himself from it, and breaking into a fit of laughter.
" okay- okay stop " Harry cackled
" say I'm not a pellican -"
" but you're the one who asked "
" well you could've said I'm a Nemo or Marlin. He's cute"
" oh yeah, you probably are, little and desperately trying to prove yourself "
" okay- that - was -rude " Draco smacked him at every word until Harry grabbed hold of the pillow and threw it across the room, immediately tickling Draco.
"Merlins fuck- gah- stop- agh " and he took the fall to the ground gracefully, taking Harry down with him.
Harry looked at Draco only for a brief from top before they both started laughing to death. The movie only served as a mere background noise to their laughs and their bodies almost pressed against each other.
" you had to take me down with you " Harry calmed down only a little staring down at Draco
" I never take the fall alone Harry, you knew that about me when you first became friends with me " Draco grinned. Harry shook his head at the slight truth in the absurdity. He looked down at Draco, laying there defenseless with the sweetest grin over his face, his fringes casually very perfectly sprawled over his forehead, his eyes shining with the dim light and the happiness that had Found a way into him. It was impossible to look at draco underneath him and not feel lovestruck.
" you know what, you're definitely a dory " Draco chuckled
" oh I am now " Harry widened his eyes in fun surprise
" oh yes, completely imbecile "
" not to forget you've forgotten almost everyone of my boyfriend's name everytime we meet. You would call them anything but their na-"
" Can I kiss you ?" The words were out before he could've rolled his tounge to stop.
Draco looked at him in complete shock which didn't help Harry currently at all. His eyebrows shot up through his fringes in extreme shock of the sudden question. The bowl of chips next to his hands crashed onto the ground and suddenly the shark from finding Nemo seemed much smaller..
" you- you want-"
" never mind. It was just a stupid question. It was- a - just pure curiousity. It doesn't matter. We sho- should just finish the movie and lets just pretend I never asked -"
" yes-"
" this- wait what ?"
" I said yes, I'd like that " Draco's lips curled into a little smile.
Shocked but with a good surprise Harry returned the smile and with consent leaned down to kiss draco softly over the lips. They could hear the soft noises from the TV but harry was clearly more focused on Draco's hands going up his back and the softness of lips pressed against his, the tenderness in the kiss and the lopsided smile Draco had held. Draco was no stranger to that as well, he too was focused on Harry's hands going under his shirt, not in a furious way but a soft gesture to find more intimacy and for someone who looked they would kiss roughly, Harry worked his lips like it was a master plan he had always been working on if ever given the opportunity to enunciate. They were lost for seconds, minutes, hours maybe but it felt like forever to share that brisk intimate kiss. Neither of them had even realised they were out of breath until they had started heaving and only the other one noticed and stopped kissing at once.
Harry smiled down at Draco, until the sudden realisation hit him that they were still on the ground.
" wanna get back on the sofa or is floor too comfortable for you my majesty "
" you'll never change, will you ?" Draco shook his head as he took Harry's hand and got back up on the sofa and landing in his lap once again but this time his eyes were Only focused on Harry. Who strangely enough was looking blankly at the TV with-
" Harry, are you crying ?" Draco rose up a little bit
" uh, no. The movie-"
" we just kissed and you care about the movie-"
" no, it's not like that-"
" seems like it-"
" oh calm down you idiot. I just- I got a wee bit emotional" Harry sighed
" why ?"
" because I finally kissed you. Do you even realize how much courage it took to even ask you that. I'm overwhelmed that you Returned-"
" your feelings ? Harry, I cannot express you enough how much I like you. All the past relationships- I understand not a good point here but listen- they never worked because they're not you. I've always liked you Harry, well pretty much always "
" really ?"
" of course. I'd been pining on you for ages. It's good to know you finally feel the same "
" I- I've been pining for long too. I mean I may have never told you but-"
" you stalked me in 6th year all year long and desperately tried to cross paths with me every chance you got in 8th year. Yeah, I bet even snuffles knows about that "
" oh "
Draco smiled softly, cupping harry's face " hey, I like you and you're worth it. You were always worth the wait, even if you still want to wait. My feelings would probably never change for you Harry. It's pretty darn hard to run away from you " Draco shrugged
" well-"
" I like you harry, I do " Draco reassured again knowing Harry was feeling overwhelmed and insecure.
" I like you too Draco " Harry finally gave Draco a smile before leaning down to kiss him again, with a small smile curving at the corner of his lips.
And when they broke off, Harry and Draco once again became invested into the movie, the difference being, they both couldn't wait for more tomorrow's to come and Draco couldn't help but fall deeper for Harry.
But then maybe, Harry was his dory If Draco was a marlin or even if he was Nemo, Harry would make sure to go above and beyond just for him and that was enough to keep Draco swimming in his love for him.

Prompt used- giving piggy back ride | FLUFF | DOMESTIC | Draco finally asks Harry to move in with him |
" I don't know why do I have to do this " Harry groaned as he kneeled down to let Draco up on his back
" because you lost a bet. You said I couldn't eat 30 pancakes within an hour and I proved you wrong. Now the consequences may or May not have been different but since you lost a bet and you'd do anything I tell you for a week, give me a piggy back ride now "
" I hate you " Harry rolled his eyes, getting hold of Draco as he leaned up on his back
" aw, I love you too honey. Besides today's the last day, so you're going to be off the hook " Draco gave him a witty smile before hooking his arms around Harry's neck and resting his head into his neck, kissing the spot softly.
" well I absolutely had no idea that you had a stomach as that of hagrid " Harry said out of breath as he started climbing up the stairs, as a part of the lost bet
" shut up " he playfully swatted Harry's hand before clinging more closely to harry.
" you have the bags right ?" Harry asked.
" is it bad I levicorpused it ?" Draco asked innocently
" I live in a Muggle building Draco, will you at least try to be subtle about it "
" I am subtle. It's not my problem that you love living in a place where you have to fix your cupboards once every week "
" so it's screw's are a little weak. I got them changed last week " Harry Replied as he Bounced Draco up a little
" well anyways, they still keep falling off. I don't like making breakfast for you when it keeps falling on me almost half the time " Draco sighed into his neck
" Draco, honey, I love you but you have never cooked breakfast for me "
" hey, my lunch is my breakfast "
" and I can surely see that "
" you promised you'd love my body no matter what " Draco rolled his eyes
" I promised to love you, not your unhealthy eating habits " Harry groaned as he started fetching for his keys in his pockets.
" hello Mrs. Adelman " Harry suddenly said as he greeted his neighbour.
" hello, dear. You too Draco. Still keeping him on the bet ?" She asked humourously as he locked her door
" a man's got to do what he got to do " draco shrugged.
With a soft laugh, Mrs. Adelman left them alone
" can't believe she likes you more " Harry said as he kicked open the door.
" well If you'd talk baking with her, I'm sure she'd love you too " Draco replied as he jumped off his back and placed the bags on the kitchen table.
" but I suck at it "
" because you never tried it you idiot "
" you're forgetting, I did try, remember that day before Ron's birthday, I tried to bake a cake for him and it resulted in a disaster " Harry's Voice echoed as he looked into the fridge, fetching some cold water bottles.
" and I wonder who do you love more" Draco humoured as he caught the bottle Harry threw at him
" that's not even a question" Harry said as he walked by Draco into the living room.
" hey, you're staying at my place tonight, isn't it?" Draco asked
Harry threw his head back a little in forgotten promise " I'm so sorry, I can't. I have a bunch of office stuff lined up to complete. I still have that unpacking to do from our trip, Then there's laundry and I stayed at your place for three days just a day before yesterday and the cleaning charm Only works so good "
" but you said you would " Draco raised his shoulder for emphasis
" I know I did love, but I have to complete my work. Here's a thing, why don't you stay over ?"
" you think you're the only one with work huh? I have to read like 20 articles to finish up my study on the potion and write a letter to the ministry and - there's just work "Draco replied as he pushed back a small part of his hair behind his ear
" well then, I guess it's clear. We'll stay at our own places today " Harry waved his hand in a small motion with a shrug
" but I like it when you're over at my place " Draco whined
" I know, I do too babe but you understand the work right " Harry gave him a small smile before he pressed a chaste kiss over his forehead.
Draco hummed in approval, wrapping his arms Around Harry for a moment before letting go.
" I'll see you tomorrow then ?" Harry asked
" mhm, yeah " Draco forced a little smile, kissing harry then letting go of his boyfriend.
Draco was about to walk out of his flat when a strange idea struck his head " unless .."
" unless you help me with my things ?"
" what- no!! I love you but you do your shit in your own "
" you're no fun " Harry rolled his eyes
" i am fun and you know it " Draco glared at him.
" anyways that's besides the point. What if you work at my place ?" Draco suggested
" but then I'd have to do back and forth if I needed something " Harry frowned
" yes,but what if you had all your things there ? And you could even unpack there ?" Draco suggested raising his eyebrows expectedly.
" but then I'd have to back and fourth every morning and then all my things would be there and it would only increase my work " Harry scrunched his face in visible confusion
Draco widened his eyes at the dumbness of the man he chose to love " yes but if all your things would be there ,you wouldn't had to back and forth ?"
" but then-"
" oh for fucks sake, Harry I'm asking you to move on with me you daft idiot "
" but why-"
" you know what, nevermind I asked-"
" I'm only playing with you " Harry laughed pulling Draco closer to him and cupping his face to kiss him " of course I'd move in with you. About time you asked me to "
" well I don't understand why do I have to be the one to take the bigger steps ?" Draco rolled his eyes, his face still squished betweens Harry's hands.
" because my beloved, I take the smaller steps. Like doing your shopping, your Grocery shopping, your clothing shopping with you, reminding you of your letters, reminding you to wish people and you like being the bigger responsible one in this relationship " Harry grinned, admiring his Beautiful of a boyfriend
" well that is true " Draco nodded approvingly " so you will ?"
" of course Draco. I'd love to move in with you and wreck your place and now you can't unmove me " Harry pointed a finger at him in a playful threat
" should've thought of that before " Draco whispered under his breath before smiling at his boyfriend knowing despite everything he loved Harry wholeheartedly till the end of the world.
" now off you go, I'll meet you tomorrow. I've got shit to do " Harry pushed Draco a Little more towards the door.
" wow, I am so excited to move in with you" Draco sarcastically said as he leaned down to kiss Harry over his cheeks.
" I am too, now go and create space for me to move in "
" I can't wait " Draco smiled and then Harry finally pushed him out of the door
" I love you " Harry said
" love you too " and finally Harry shut the door, smiling to himself, excited for the new step in his relationship.

How to get away with murder?
Prompt used- Sitting on others lap | harry and draco get's assigned for a murder mystery as pretend boyfriends | TW- torture | ENEMIES TO LOVER |
" no Simon, get the hell out of here " robard yelled walking into the room
"now, my favourite aurors " robard grinned as he settled down in his office chair in front of his two employees.
" greetings robard " harry nodded
" morning " the other one greeted
" right, greetings can go on for hours. Now the actual reason I sufficed you here. This particular case has been up by from other aurors as their inability to actually being able to sort it and who better than you two. Cutting to the chase, you know I don't like to waste time. You two are going to work on this case together-"
" with draco, no way-"
" with harry, no way-"
They both glared at each other, narrowing their eyes.
" now now, don't kill each other right here. I know how much you two hate each other but this case is important for DMLE. The truth is you both have strengths which if put together can be put to greater use. Draco is great at analysing situations, detecting potions and previously casted magic and you harry, dear you're fast, you're smooth talker, your wand less magic, and your instincts. All of your traits can so easily solve this case and I want your heads in for that" robard looked at both of them expectedly.
" come on, give me an answer. It's your last case harry, it's all chase and fun " robard insisted
" you're leaving DMLE ?" Draco turned to harry. Harry nodded without Daring to look at him.
" finally understood you don't stand a chance here-"
" as you please Malfoy. I've caught more people than you ever have " harry rolled his eyes
" see this is why I chose you. Your determination-"
" will you stop with the ass licking robard. I'll do it but I must insist at places I'd like to work alone " harry sighed
" same for me. I like to have my space " draco replied.
" well it's settled then. You're in the case for Gary oakman " robard clapped his hands lightly, passing them the files he had fetched before hand. Picking up the files harry and draco almost left the room when robard stopped them.
" oh and you're going to be pretend boyfriends. Do your best, good luck " robard grinned and shut the door on their faces.
" what-"
" what -"
They both looked at each other with morbid shock.
__________________________
Harry pinched his nose tiredly as they went through the case together " I hate this case "
" tell me about it , this man didn't even have had that much money, no heir to pass onto, no wife or anything yet he's murdered " draco sighed as he leaned back into his chair.
" the bigger part is, no culprits, no victims "
" we do have a witness though, the house maid. Rosy I suppose " draco skimmed over her details.
Harry looked at the watch knowing he had stayed in his office for far longer than he normally did " anyways, I'm going to head home. We have to be there tomorrow so the packing. I suggest you do that too "
Draco looks at harry, then at the clock in the wall " in a few " and harry nodded before walking out.
The next morning they met in front of the ministry
" I want you two at the best behavior and I mean it " robard insisted
" I'll try my best to be on the best behavior with my fake boyfriend james " harry rolled his eyes as he checked his coat pockets for everything.
" can I still do the case individually?" Draco rolled his eyes
" draco, trust me, I have thought this through and you would do best at the disposal of your resources " robard sighed as he shook hands with both of them " off you go now. Don't forget to revise your history "
And with that harry and draco sat inside the car.
" I'm so excited " draco sarcastically scowled
" it would be a pleasure to work with you " harry narrowed his eyes at Draco equally sarcastically.
As obvious, they didn't talk through the journey, knowing that if conversed they would want to rip each other heads off. So they Only talked hurriedly when they reached the manor.
" you're james , I'm Derek. We've been together for 2 years, right ?" Harry reassured
" much to my displeasure " draco rolled his eyes as he took down his bags from the car
" best behavior my ass " harry sneered under his breath as he took out his own bags and waited for draco to join him towards the door.
" huh, I'm sure you could never afford such manor " draco said as he dragged his bags towards harry.
" funnily enough draco, I am the owner of a manor since I was 17. Jokes on you " harry grinned sarcastically as he walked forwards towards the gate.
" oh and by the way, I'm far more rich than you are considering I donate a lot of money to orphanages and such. Good deeds. But what would you know about it " harry smiled sharply. It fueled draco how Harry was insulting him with a smile, but man he wasn't lying.
" shall we put this banters aside and finally get to business ?" Harry asked at last. Draco nodded and suddenly the Manor's door opened and they met, Rosy, the housemaid.
" oh my darlings, you are finally here. We've been waiting for you for an hour. Heavy traffic huh ?" She smiled
" it was a little bit of traffic. You see my beautiful boyfriend, he got up a bit late. Sorry about the inconvenience " harry replied as he pulled draco towards him and intertwined their fingers.
" I'm really sorry, that's just me " draco smiled at the lady.
" no matter, no matter. You can leave the bags, the bell boys will take these. Shall we walk inside then ?" She asked with a warm smile
" of course. Shall we james ?" Harry asked draco as he swiftly pulled him more closer to vanish any suspicions.
" of course Darling " draco swore he threw up a little In his mouth.
And they walked towards the main door with harry appreciating the gardens and the vines and talking about the architecture of the windows and doors from the 1960s.
" we'll let you freshen up then. This would be your room. And since you're a couple we thought you wouldn't need two separate rooms, right ?" Rosy asked expectedly
" oh- no no of course not. We share the same room and trust me Ms. Rosy If you had given us separate rooms, I would've been in his room all the time " harry chuckled.
" well then it's no inconvenience. Your bags are already up here. The lunch is at 2, and then we'll give you the house tour. Oh and yes, that area is out of bounds " Rosy cheekily smiled and walked away.
Harry kept smiling until they had reached the room and closed the door behind him and draco immediately jerked his hands off harry..
" wow, I love my boyfriend " Harry sarcastically said.
" what was the hand holding for ?" Draco sneered
" uh- draco, couple's normally do that and if you want to be done with the case as soon as possible, you too have to do couple things even if you hate it. It's important that we raise no suspicions at all. One suspicion and we're dead, alright " harry explained as he took off his shoes and lined it up up on the rack.
Draco hated to admit but harry was right " I think it'd be better if we didn't use our actual names too then and- muffalito- use protection charms all the time "
Harry raised an eyebrow at Draco impressively " guess robard wasn't all wrong about you then "
Draco rolled his eyes at harry and disposed off his extra clothes onto the chair.
" I'll take the shower first " draco announced and went into the bathroom.
Harry didn't had time to react but couldn't even if he wanted to, knowing draco was still a huge pain in the ass.
_________________________
" how are you going to transfigure ?" Draco asked harry as he got ready for the actual investigation
" polyjuice potion " harry replied not even looking at Draco sitting over the study going through the reports.
" you do know it's effect only lasts 3 hours ?" Draco asked
" believe me d- james- I have taken polyjuice potion much more than it would be recommended to for a child" harry huffs as he put his auror coat in the suitcase and transfiguring it into a smaller bag.
" right, of course, the saviour had to do a lot to save us from the chambers of secret's " draco rolled his eyes and turned back to his reports.
" here take this coin. If you need me, just write on it.. not that we'd be far away anyways" harry said as he tossed the coin at Draco.
" how does it work ?" He asked
" just- I have another set of it. If you write something on it, I'll know it too. I used this back in DA meetings at school " harry double checked his pockets walking around in the room looking for his wand.
" clever " draco impressively frowned " here, your wand "
" thanks. And remember, don't raise suspicions" harry told Draco.
Rolling his eyes draco agreed and harry finally left the manor after greeting Rosy, getting ready to get back here again after transformation.
Harry returned half an hour later with his small team Including Ron and getting on with the investigation.
" Rosy, what's this all about ?" He heard someone ask as harry was standing just before the crime scene caution sign talking about the evidences found.
" oh, it's nothing. It was master's old bedroom. Mr. Gary. He passed away a couple weeks ago. These people think it's a murder and just barge in to investigate " Rosy sighed
" well that's too bad. My condolences Rosy. We hadn't known about it " draco sympathetically patted her back softly. Smiling to himself, harry got on with the investigation once again.
At night when harry had finally come back with reports and evidence he was met with a just out of shower draco.
" the water's still warm if you want to" draco told him as he softly patted towel over his head.
Harry nodded, dumping his reports and jackets over the chair and getting in the bathroom, smelling like Lavender and cinnamon.
It only took him 15 minutes in shower when he got out forgetting he didn't had his clothes.
" hey ma- james, can you pass me my clothes on the chair ?" Harry poked his head out of the bathroom.
He could've sworn he heard draco swear under his breath insulting harry.
" I can't find it, just come and take it yourself" draco called out.
Shrugging harry wrapped the towel around his lower body and got out of the bathroom, into the room to find his clothes.
" I left them h-"
" oh- I'm so sorry" Rosy had suddenly entered the room, turning her head in shame
" it's alright rosy. We- we just you know got out of the shower " harry gave her a little firm smile as he covered up his body with another towel.
" I- I'm really sorry. I will leave you two to it. Just bought some tea" she said without looking at them
" it's alright, leave them there, we'll call you if we need something " draco gave her a smile as he stepped closer to harry, putting his hand over Harry's shoulder in a physical gesture.
She nodded and embarrassingly left the room.
" just put on a damn shirt now, will you " draco rolled his eyes as he immediately created space between them.
" oh- I did not know that. I was planning on staying naked for the rest of the evening " harry rolled his eyes as he tried searching for his shirt until he saw draco.
" you're wearing my shirt "
" wha- oh. I didn't realise " draco looked down at his own blue shirt " no wonder it smells like shit"
Harry rolled his eyes " keep wearing it, I'll get myself another one " and he picked out another maroon shirt from the bag and wore it right there in the room.
" ahem- anyways, you got anything over the case ?" Draco asked turning around, giving harry his privacy.
" not a great deal. We would still have to go through every inch of that room and let me tell you, that rooms huge " harry huffed as he finally put on his pants and retrieved the files.
" here, these are the pictures I took today" harry displayed it over the table draco was sat on, ruffling his hair to dry them.
" wow- that's one- ha- stop dripping water over me "
" oh right- sorry" and Harry picked the towel again, drying his hair.
By the night, they decided to finally make an appearance downstairs for dinner.
" oh, I thought you'd had liked it in your room " rosy smiled
"we just thought it'd be nice to have dinner downstairs" harry smiled as he walked along with draco
" right, on the table then " she said and they made themselves comfortable over the dinner table.
" it's better than your manor " harry whispered to draco once they had settled in their Chairs. Draco narrowed his eyes at harry, giving him a scowl.
" here you go dears " rosy said as she placed plates one after the another.
" enjoy-"
" why don't you stay too. We'd like to get to know you, don't you think Derek ?" Draco asked smiling gently
" I think that would be brilliant " harry raised an eyebrow at Draco, impressed by his subtle approach.
With much hesitation rosy joined them, but not eating, just sitting further on a chair despite the insisted offer to join the table.
" pardon me mister's, I haven't been able to ask how you two met?" Rosy asked in Between
" oh- how we met- it's an interesting story actually-" draco stuttered
" we hated each other in school. But then we realised we only hated each other because we thought they had life easier. Infact we always liked each other and were too afraid to say it. So we put it into hate, until one day, I saw him alone in the school bathroom, crying and I consoled him, then I suppose we became friends and started dating after school " harry covered up for draco. Draco nodded along, amused but agreed to the story.
" that is so intriguing. I wish I could have a love like yours " Rosy grinned hopefully at them
" you know what, I think you'd get the love you deserve. And who knows might be very soon you meet the love of your life, like I have" draco smiled at rosy, drinking away his wine.
" I love you too james. I'm so glad I've met you " harry squeezed draco's hand across the table, making sure he raised no suspicions..
When they were finally done, harry insisted on helping through the kitchen, draco tagging along too when rosy spoke up
" you two make a very nice couple. I bet you don't fight a lot "
" we don-"
" oh we do, we do a lot. Who doesn't fight after all but we make up. We'd rather be with each other than anyone else. Right james ?" Harry smiled at draco, his cheeks hurting with smiling so much
" of course " draco smiled back at him as he intertwined their fingers and softly kissed Harry's knuckles. It was unfortunate that harry Blushed when he shouldn't had but with that craving physical touch, he couldn't resist.
" awh, look at you two "rosy happily sighed as he placed her hand over her chest as if touched by their relationship " oh look a mistletoe " she pointed
" a what ?" Draco's eyes suddenly widened, so did Harry's.
" there's a mistletoe " rosy pointed above their head
Harry forcefully chuckled "you don't believe in that thing, do you now rosy?"
" what's it with belief or not. It's a mistletoe. Always kiss under the mistletoe.. I mean it wouldn't matter much but make this lady happy " rosy happily said
Draco's opened his mouth to say something but unable to form any words he shut it close
" i- if that's what you want.. we're not such an open couple if you must know. Not into the public affection but for you rosy " harry gulped smiling pulling draco closer
" no suspicions " harry whispered very quietly to draco before pressing his lips against draco, tenderly kissing his soft lips, just for a few Seconds before breaking it off.
" is that how you'd normally kiss ?" Rosy asked
" what- no of course not rosy. We- we just you know save them for the bedroom, if you know what I mean " draco chuckled blushing.
Rosy's expression immediately changed " oh right, of course I understand "
" we should head to the room actually. It's getting late. We wouldn't want you staying up so late " harry said as he held draco's hands and started dragging him along with him.
Nodding, they finally left the kitchen and without so much of a suspicion made it to the room.
" you're sleeping on the couch for kissing me tonight " draco rolled his eyes as he dumped himself onto the bed.
" whatever " harry rolled his eyes and picked up his essentials and dumped onto the couch.
__________________________
" is everything fine with you two, Derek ?" Rosy asked as harry fetched the breakfast from her
" why do you ask ?" Harry frowned
" oh nothing- you just- I saw the couch with the blankets and everything and thought I- never mind, your personal life. I shouldn't intrude-"
" not at all rosy. Not at all. We just had a small Argument last night over something and, well it turned a bit ugly so I slept on the couch but I assure you, everything is fine " harry assured her taking two cups of coffee with him and heading back to the room.
" we've got a situation-" harry cut off when he saw draco wearing nothing but pants, getting ready for work.
Gulping harry broke out of it and casted a muffalito and gave draco the cup of coffee
" what happened ?" Draco asked as he pulled over a shirt.
" I think, it's a presumption, rosy knew I slept on the couch last night. She asked me about it and I don't want to raise any suspicions so let's not do the couch thing-"
" I've had enough with your no suspicions potter. We are not raising any suspicions. The only suspicion would be if it seemed as if our relationship was too perfect alright. Have some boundaries. I let it slide last night but you're never fucking kissing me again. That's the end of it. I don't give a shit if there was a mistletoe or anything, you better not do that again" draco snapped
" I can't believe you. You'd actually believe I'd enjoy kissing you, for fun or something. Please. Don't flatter yourself. I don't care if the case matters to you enough or not but this case is my last and I want to make the best of it. I don't want anything going wrong, even the slightest bit of suspicion that we're not a couple, anyone would figure out and we'd be dead before you know it. So suck it up because If you're working with me, you have to work with me " Harry snapped, pulling off his coat , taking his bag and slamming out of the manor.
Draco shut his eyes for a moment, sighing.
" everything alright dear ?" Suddenly someone asked.
Auror instincts immediately made him get up and reach for his wand when he realised it was Only rosy
" I thought i heard yelling " she said
" right- " Draco frowned, until he remembered clearly every single word from harry just before " we had a small Argument. We'd be fine.. if you don't mind, I'd like to be alone "
Rosy hurriedly nodded and left the room. It was not much later, draco too left the manor to come back again with harry for investigation.
" I think I know where to start. Talk with me tonight, yeah ?" Draco had told harry between work. Harry frowned but immediately nodded, waiting for the evening to arrive.

on draco malfoy's patronus being a thestral
I AM HERE TO ANSWER YOUR CALLS thestral may seem like a badass / very strange choice of a patronus for draco but I am here to explain WHY I think it should be draco’s patronus!!! I’d love to hear your thoughts / have people elaborate on my thoughts so feel free to!
First off, I feel like a lot of people brush off the idea of him having a thestral patronus because heck, why should draco malfoy of all people have a mythical creature? But that’s one of the reasons why i love it. We all know that draco would absolutely LOVE having a mythical patronus ( you know, being special ) but I stand strongly behind the idea that the ONE mythical patronus he would have never wanted is a thestral.
A patronus is suppose to be a representation of yourself, and why the hell would he like it if he had patronus that reminds him of the war? of him being a death eater? of what he had to do and what it ended up causing? it’s an irony i love to indulge in & think about. Rather than being stuck up and proud i personally think draco would have wished for anything else. I’m pretty sure draco would be the type who would pull a disgusted face if he saw a thestral rather than be happy by it. He wouldn’t want to show this patronus off. Like, can you imagine? Pansy pestering him to show her, “wow i bet it’s a fucking ferret, isn’t it”, and when she actually sees it everything goes to shit because of fucking course, draco malfoy out of all people would have a thestral patronus, that even the embodiement of his happiest memory and his soul would link back to the horrors of the war and what he’s done.
Thestrals as you all know are considered to be dangerous, omens of misfortune and only visible to those who have seen death. They are quite literally representative of death. It spells out /evil/ and /bad/ no matter how you look at how the world portrays them.
This is where I’m grateful for Luna Lovegood. We’ve all seen a different side to the thestrals in the films, with Luna stating that “they’re quite gentle, really, but people tend to avoid them because they’re a bit…different.” Thestrals externally look ghostly, grim with them being dark & skeletal all the way through ( this could be another reason why draco = thestral but i’m not making that connection LOL ) if we place in on a canon timeline, the only place where draco would /really/ be trying to conjure a patronus would be after the war, and keeping that in mind it makes a lot of sense. It’s not a big stretch to say that post-war draco became an image of the war, with him being a death eater. His past haunts him, with people only seeing into his image of a death eater without acknowledging him trying his best to redeem himself.
The whole idea of a thestral being a creature that is representive of death & misfortune but also having the ability to be a person’s patronus, basically the opposite of what a thestral is known for, is SUCH a good way of describing draco. The image of post-war draco malfoy is like the image of a thestral in a flowerfield, they stand out too much for their setting of peace despite them not doing anything but being themselves. People fear/hate thestrals and they can’t help it, just as people can’t help but slap “death eater” on draco.
BUT! despite their external appearances thestrals are gentle, extremely loyal…and cutting away at the war and everything else we know draco is loyal. He is so loyal to his family, and even if its /bad/ he wouldn’t hesitate to defend them even if it’s by taunting / mocking the person. He loves them, and this goes both ways - maybe it’s him being prideful of his blood heritage because of how he was raised, or maybe he truly really loves his family ( which i definitely think he goddamn does ). Thestrals can be representative of both, they are attracted to the smell of blood but will also become aggressive if they view someone as a threat to themselves, their friends or even their owner.
It makes sense that draco’s patronus would be a gentle, misunderstood being who sometimes does the wrong thing out of love, or fear, but for a reason that isn’t purely “ because i wanted to”. I just really like the idea of a thestral both symbolising draco’s deeper, hidden parts that he’s too scared to show to the world while also simultaneously being able to represent his life and what he experiences.
I also do think it’ll be a nice way to make draco get over the horrors of war and let go of his past and just live. Draco coming to terms with him having a thestral patronus would practically be him coming to terms with who he is and the mistakes he’s made.
And just to add onto everything above : draco was owner of the elder wand at a point ( thestral hair core ), and thinking about when he was the owner and what was happening at the time, i think everything works out nicely.
All in all i just think thestral is a really clever choice for draco, and clever just so happens to work perfectly for him.
EDIT: ALL THIS AND I FORGOT TO EVEN MENTION THE FACT THAT THESTRALS ARE CLEVER
So Draco is a rich kid, and while I headcanon that Lucius is abusive, I think there are more positive Headcanons:
Draco can play piano, and violin
He’s half self taught, half mom taught
He can sing pretty well too, but it’s more of a smooth and quiet voice so Lucius doesn’t like it (he finds it to feminine)
So he doesn’t sing in front of people, just when he’s by himself
His mother taught him to dance, he can waltz, ballroom dance of all sorts, and tango a little
It was good for formal functions, but when McGonagal caught him making comments during dance lessons for the Yule Ball
She brought him up (like Ron) but when they started to dance, she was surprised and gave him points
He’s also half french, the Malfoys are (idk they just seem like it)



Draco Malfoy Headcannons!!
• He has a locket necklace that is hidden somewhere in his dorm room of the confession note that you had given him in 4th year. He never gave you a chance until the near end of 4th year, early 5th year.
• He cried in your arms for days on end after getting the dark mark- he was absolutely sure that you would leave him, yet you didn’t, that was something he never understood.
• A dark heart just needs a little fixing, and that was him. You had soften the heart of Draco Malfoy, giving him a fresh perspective of life, what was going on and what there was to come.
• At first he was so nervous to introduce you to his friend group because he thought that you wouldn’t like them or they would think you weren’t enough for Draco, but you had actually fitted in better with the group than anyone who else had tried to join years before.
• Draco loves to hand you little notes during class to distract you and to watch your smile appear on your face as you read the sweet words he wrote in the note:
‘Hey pretty girl, I just want you to know I was thinking about you this morning when I saw Neville walking past me with some flowers that he was bringing to the greenhouse. I also thought of you when I smelled the coffee that Blaise had poured this morning at breakfast. You should spend the night at my dorm, maybe watch the sunrise with me?- Love, Draco’
• After dating you for a year, he didn’t care what others thought of relationship between him and you. Nobody would expect it, but Draco Malfoy had fallen in love. He had fallen hard in love with You.
• Smells like apple, cinnamon, old books and coffee.
