1. This Heart Shut Wide by @xanthippe74 [T, 4k]
▶ It’s New Year’s Eve and Draco refuses to talk to anyone at this wretched party in the Eighth-Year common room. He’s going to ignore Harry Potter and not think about snogging him in the staircase earlier. And he’s definitely not going to let himself fuck up both their lives by continuing the reckless game they’re playing. As usual, nothing goes according to Draco’s plan.
2. Underneath The Mistletoe by @drgngrl87 [M, 43k]
▶ Eighth Year at Hogwarts is proving to be a bit lonely for Harry, who's feeling a rather lost and somewhat left out. All that changes when he walks into The Three Broomsticks and spots none other than Draco Malfoy, sat alone in a corner, nursing a pint of mulled mead, and looking like he's miles away. Could they be kindred spirits after all?

1. The Promise of Summer by Anonymous [M, 66k]
▶ How was Harry supposed to know that coming back for eighth year would be so confusing? Everything is the same, and yet not the same. And nowhere is this more obvious than with Draco Malfoy. Harry finds himself once more watching and following Malfoy, trying to work him out. When they are drawn together to heal the castle, Harry doesn’t just find Malfoy - he also finds himself. ★ H/D Erised 2019 | @hd-erised
2. Seas Between Us Broad Have Roared by Anonymous [E, 2k]
▶ It's New Year's Eve, the first since the war, and Harry's moved into a new flat in an old Muggle building. All he wants is to sleep through the whole stupid celebration... but that wouldn't be much of a story, now, would it? ★ HP Holiday Mini Fest | @hp-mini-fest
3. A Second Chance by Rei382 [T, 1k]
▶ Life circumstances brought Draco to work at a coffee shop to make a living. Life circumstances brought Harry to walk into that coffee shop and offer a new start. ★ Drarropoly 2.0 - A Drarry Game/Fest | @gameofdrarry
4. Stuck at Hogwarts with Yule by @maraudersaffair [E, 17k]
▶ It’s eighth year and Harry and Draco have decided to stay at Hogwarts for the Christmas holidays. The problem is they secretly fancy each other and spending Christmas in the castle means they will have a lot of time together. ★ 25 Days of Draco and Harry 2019 | @slythindor100
