Harry Potter and the Invasion of the Slytherins (T, 6.1k) by cavendishbutterfly for This_Time_I_Wont_Regret_My_Username / @blue-rose-smallsÂ
Harry just wanted to bake in peace. He didn't ask for Pansy to invade his friend group with her sheer willpower and Slytherin co-conspirators. But before he knows it, the Slytherins have regular access to his Floo. And then Draco Malfoy starts hanging around while Harry whips up endless birthday cakes and baked concoctions.
Funny thing, Harry doesn't actually mind Draco's company. Not at all.
Ice-Kissed (G, 2.3k) by corvuscrowned / @corvuscrowned for Jewelmilk / @jewelmilk
Professors Potter and Malfoy have very different philosophies when it comes to their teaching styles. Draco, for one, is dedicated to giving his students the best Potions education in all of Europe.
Potter is ... Well, Potter keeps taking his Defense classes outside to make snow angels.
Christmas traditions (G, 606) by a_reader_and_writer / @harrypotterfanfictionwriter for Prongslover77
Draco had many Christmas traditions over the years, but only one is his favorite.
In the Early Hours (M, 10.7k) by manixzen / @manixzen for alrespirar / @seekercass
It started with one night, which turned into months, which turned into years. And then, Harry realized he was in over his head.

Cinnamon, Chocolate, and Pine (T, 7.9k) by StarLeighNight for cavendishbutterfly

This Love is Still Ours (E, 10.5k) by alrespirar / @seekercass for reighchama
The distance helps with the bond. Itâs not as strong as it used to be during eighth year. Distance makes it dormant, as the healers said many years ago. Ever so often when Draco comes back, it roars back to life whenever heâs near Harry. They mutually agree to stay away. Until they donât.

Dear Mr Potter,
The answer is, and will remain, a no.
Sincerely,
Draco Malfoy

Or: the one where Harry has writerâs block and Malfoy isnât helping.
Christmas in Garland (NR, 16.4k) by Prongslover77 for StarLeighNight
When driven healer Harry Potter doesn't get the prestigious job he planned for, he unexpectedly finds himself moving to a remote town. He soon warms to the friendly town and its cast of characters, plus an unexpected familiar face, but suspects it's hiding one big holiday secret.
My World is Filled with Cheer and You (T, 9.1k) by withgreatelan / @withgreatelan for a_reader_and_writer / @harrypotterfanfictionwriter
Draco needs to buy Teddy a Christmas present and has put it off to the last minute. He also has no plans for Christmas Eve. A whirlwind of Weasleys (plus Luna) will find him not only with the presents he needs, but also a place to go for the holiday celebration, and a chance to reconnect with Harry and potentially get something he's been wishing for as well.

Hogwarts is putting on a fusion of muggle and wizarding plays over the Yule holidays, to get the students involved with members of different houses and give them something hands-on with their muggle studies. Draco, as a curse breaker on holiday due to an injury that won't seem to heal, is asked to help prevent the kids from accidentally blowing something (or each other) up. And because it's Christmas and he's 100% a caretaker by nature, despite the things people say about him, he agrees immediately.
Draco didn't know that Harry Potter would be there too, showing up after years of complete silence in the wizard world. Nor did Draco expect that seeing him would rekindle... whatever it was they had in their eighth year.
love that feels like christmas day (G, Digital Art) by Jewelmilk / @jewelmilk for ebbet
Draco and Harry celebrate their first Christmas together with snow, gingerbread houses, and a mistletoe
you're a opossum living in the trash can of my heart ⥠| playlist and (truly, magnificently atrocious) poem by clareypotter / @clarey-potter for withgreatelan / @withgreatelanâ
harryâs tipsy after ron and hermione's engagement party, and he's in a sappy, maudlin mood when he writes what he is well aware is the world's worst love poetry. it's not a disaster until ron's excitable owl snatches the VERY PERSONAL AND EXTREMELY TOP SECRET poem and delivers it STRAIGHT TO MALFOY. shut up. it is NOT his fault. the little hearts written around malfoy's name had NOTHING to do with it.
