Hogwarts!AU - for Draco

[coreofaphoenix]

Continued from here

Harry slept deeply and content once he heard the softly spoken words from the Dark Lord. He dreamt of Draco. Of Tom. Of the three of them together.

The night had been a revelation for Harry Potter. He had known, from that first meeting with Tom Riddle, that things were changing.

Course, he had changed.

But the truth was, even though he and Draco had talked about it (at length), he never actually seriously considered that the Dark Lord would be attracted or have a desire for them. More specifically, him. Oh Draco was an attractive man to be sure, there was no doubt. But considering the history the Dark Lord and he had? He hadn't been 100% certain.

Tonight changed all of that.

He only stirred once he heard the door opening to his bedroom and felt a sleepy smile tug on his mouth. "Mm Draco?"

Comments

"You would be amazed at the things I will forbid and fight against, Harry Potter. You, of all people, should know but I can definitely show you," he insisted, as much a Malfoy in some moments as he might ever be.

"Are you trying to be tempting about him, or describing yourself, Love?" Challenging it all back on Harry, arching a brow.

At that he pulled back, hands going for the hem of his shirt. He stopped though, looking at Harry with a bit of a frown. "He had mentioned that as well," he admitted with a nod. "Not soon but that he was willing. You're willing?"

Harry laughed quietly and looked at the other man, lifting a hand to trail over Draco's cheek. "Oh, I know that you will do everything within your power and the Malfoy power to make it so. It doesn't mean everyone else will abide by it." As soon as the Dursley's were taken care of, he would feel closure. At least they were on their way to the Malfoy's becoming his Magical Guardians.

"If I was describing myself, I would have said short," he said with a grin. Though, he wasn't about to deny the other adjectives.

He watched Draco reach for the hem of his shirt, looking forward to seeing it off him. When the blonde stopped, Harry glanced back in his eyes. "I'm willing. I'm always willing to learn more magic. Especially magic that will be useful in the future."

Draco leaned into the touch, eyes closing as he savored that tenderness, loving the tiny intimacies that they shared between themselves. "There's so much we'll take care of," he murmured, knowing it wasn't just words but plans.

"You know there's not turning back after this, right?" Even as he asked, peeling away the shirt and tossing it away and then reaching for Harry to try and pull him closer.
