"It's not my fault you were a cowardly piece of shite, Malfoy."
"Wow," he murmurs, shocked. "That was harsh." Harry's expression falters but Malfoy smirks again. "You're the one panting over a kiss with me. I wonder what that says about you."
"We can't—aren't doing this," Harry reiterates firmly. "A kiss is one thing, but I won't ruin my life for you."
Each Time I See You, I Die a Little More by Devious_Muffin
No matter how hard he tries, Draco cannot escape others' opinions of him. Harry Potter is the worst of all, stuck in the past and regularly feeding the vitriol between them. One confrontation after another leads them both down a path they'd never considered, forcing them to confront deep-seated emotions and unexpected truths. Their unconventional relationship comes to a grinding halt when Draco finally realizes how emotionally invested he has become, spurring a string of meaningless interactions and public stunts and fanning the flames of jealousy on both sides.
Refusing to be ignored, fate forces them back toward each other, and they will have to make a decision: finally address the growing pain and longing they both feel at the hands of the other or continue to suffer in silence while dragging down those around them.
Hisses get Kisses by Ira_Dunfort
Hogwarts reopens for an improved Eighth Year, inviting its oldest students back with a few notable changes: NEWTs can be chosen anew, no questions asked, and house segregation has been abolished—only to be replaced with a feline-inspired socialisation project.
This is a story about teenagers falling in love while digging deeper into the magical history of their families.
Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town by nixeia
A rigged Secret Santa game, a yearly dinner, a little obsession and snippets of a life. Or, the one where they're oblivious and very much in love.
A Little Prayer by nsasquith
Draco Malfoy, nom de scène Draco Black, is very good at surviving. He’s had to be.
Homeless at eighteen, he has built himself a fragile kind of stability on strict boundaries, a fake last name, and sex traded for money. Splitting his time between late nights and a community centre that’s falling apart.
It works.
That is, until the famous Oscar-winning Harry Potter hires him.
Lines start to blur, family secrets begin to surface, and Draco is forced to decide what survival is worth.
Harry only meant to buy Christmas presents.
Instead, he found Draco Malfoy again, more than a decade after the war: owner of Wizarding London's best luxury apothecary, and had somehow become much, much fitter than Harry remembered.
Harry has questions, most of them inappropriate, and the only sensible thing to do with questions is investigate. Draco was definitely hiding something. Unfortunately, Harry's investigative instincts keep getting distracted by what Draco’s got going on under all those kaftans.
Featuring: food as a love language, the art of technicalities, ancient magic, Harry’s overactive imagination, and Draco’s spectacular commitment to making everything more complicated than it needs to be.
A Thirst Kept Quiet by ThatSlytherinAuthor
When Harry Potter investigates a suspicious potion-smuggling operation tied to the Malfoy, he uncovers an old pure-blood secret buried beneath generations of quietness:
The Malfoys are vampires.
And Draco Malfoy is running out of the potion, keeping his hunger at bay.
make the yuletide gay by glasghosts
It's December 1998, and Pansy Parkinson has somehow convinced her group of friends to partake in a Secret Solstice gift exchange in anticipation of the Yule holidays. Harry Potter is very quickly regretting his decision to participate.
Slowly, Then All At Once by IAmStillWriting
The war is over and Draco is struggling to rebuild his life. He's an overworked editor at The Daily Prophet and he is sick of his boss and his lousy windowless closet of an office. But the latest project he's been assigned to edit is fascinating-- Dear Charlie, an advice column written by a psychologist no one has ever heard of mostly for those with post-war trauma. The more Draco edits the work of this anonymous columnist, the more he finds himself appreciating the help. So much that he find himself sending in his own letter and starting a correspondence with the writer, off the record. But who is this mystery writer? And why does he know the key to making Draco's heart flutter?
The dead don’t return to break into houses at midnight but Draco Malfoy does. Faced with an intruder Harry knows all too well who he thought was no longer, he’s convinced is hiding a lycanthropic secret, Harry takes finding out into his own hands. (And a lot more)
