Summary:
After years of running away, Harry crosses paths with an all-too familiar face and follows him to Amsterdam.
Excerpt:
"Do you ever get lonely?" Draco asked, watching the stars of the ceiling.
"I don't think I've ever stopped," Harry answered and pondered the honesty of the statement.
Draco sighed. "I despise Erik. But I can't seem to stop following him whenever he crooks his little finger." Draco waved his pinkie in the air in demonstration.
"That must be some little finger," Harry laughed and Draco's mouth twisted in a smile as his hand dropped back to the grass. "You know, there are plenty of men in Amsterdam."
Draco rolled onto his side to face Harry, who was still lying on his back. A strand of white blond hair fell into Draco's eyes and he brushed it back impatiently. "Yes. I know. You've slept with most of them." He stuck out his tongue, his face transfigured by the childish gesture.
Harry closed his eyes and inhaled a long drag of smoke, then rested his hand on his forehead as he exhaled. "Well, I've fucked a few, yes."
Draco's eyebrow twitched at the blunt acknowledgment. "Does it help?"
Harry shrugged. "It passes the time."
"But don't you want to do more than pass the time?"
Harry stubbed out his cigarette and propped himself up on his elbows. Draco was taking a last, delicate drag, smoke wreathing his fair head. Harry looked at him - really looked at him - at the sensual curve of his lip and the dark circles under his eyes, the flare of his nostrils and the soft flutter of his lashes as he exhaled. "What are you asking me, exactly?"
Draco blinked. "I don't know. I suppose if I knew, I wouldn't have to ask." He crushed the cigarette into the grass with a frown.
The quiet was suddenly quite loud. Harry was aware of the welling of magic enclosing them, the waves that travelled back and forth between them as they spoke. If he closed his eyes, he could feel a particular presence within it that was Draco's own. Even without the wine, Harry would have been drunk on being around this much enchantment again; Draco just added to it. When Harry opened his eyes, Draco was looking at him and didn't avert his gaze.
"Draco, are you flirting with me?" Harry asked finally.
Draco's face gathered in a soft frown. "I don't know how you pulled so many men, Potter, if you can't tell a simple thing like that."
Harry leaned forward and brushed a blade of grass from Draco's hair. The pale strands were silken against his fingers. He let his hand linger. "Is it really that simple?" The gravelly, needy sound of his own voice surprised him.
Draco tilted his head. "No." He leaned forward and opened his mouth to Harry, kissing him in soft, hesitant waves. His mouth tasted of cigarettes and wine and strawberries. Harry cupped Draco's jaw in his hand and let his tongue slide between Draco's lips. Draco moaned and tightened his grip on Harry's shirt at his shoulder. They kissed wildly, more teeth, more tongue, more gasping and thrusting.
It was like pulling magnets apart to break contact with Draco, but Harry did just that. Draco's lips were slick and red and his hair was mussed in a fashion that made Harry want to devour him. "Draco... If you just want someone to fill your time, there are lots of places to look. And better choices than me."
"Potter, you noble slut. You'll fuck anyone else in this city but not me?"
"I care about you."
Draco looked alarmed at those four simple words. Harry was alarmed by them himself. They rang true like a bell.
"So it's not just sex between us," Harry continued. "It's something more."
“Did you really just offer me a blowjob?”
Harry thought for a moment, then nodded. “Yes. Yes I did.”
“And you really think that’s a good idea, with all of our history? And our having to work together? Much less our trying to kill each other at various points in the past year?”
“No. Not at all.” Harry shook his head. “It’s actually a horrible idea.”
The wrinkle between Malfoy’s brows deepened. “Then why in Merlin’s name would you say such a thing?”
Harry cocked his head. He thought for a long moment. “Because I want to,” he said finally. The potion’d fuzzed his brain, but he was quite certain he knew what he wanted. And why. “Because I’ve been thinking about how you taste. Because I want to see your face when you come.”
Malfoy’s eyelashes fluttered and then he frowned. “Potter,” he said in a low voice, “if you are taking the piss, I will kill you. I want to make that clear. This has gone far enough for a joke.”
Harry slid off the bench onto his knees, a bit more awkwardly than he’d planned but without falling over. His motor skills were returning now, and just in time it would seem. He positioned himself carefully between Malfoy’s knees, avoiding brushing against the wounded thigh. With the pad of his thumb, he stroked Malfoy’s other thigh, watching the gooseflesh appear.
He looked up at Malfoy who was watching him intently and had sunk his teeth into his lip. “Say yes, Malfoy.”
“Yes, Malfoy,” Malfoy said.
Harry pursed his lips. He licked a trail along Malfoy’s inner thigh and stopped close to the edge of Malfoy’s pants.
“Is this what you want?”
Malfoy opened his eyes. “Yes, Potter” he said breathlessly. “Damn you, yes.”
ok but is drarry fic actually a thing ??? recommend me some i BEG
First of all, hi anon! Thanks for the ask! I don’t get many so it’s always appreciated when I do!
Second, are we talking about the same drarry? As in Draco and Harry? If you haven’t stayed up half the night reading a 200,000 word drarry slow burn then you haven’t lived! There is a ton of fanfiction, literally tens of thousands of fics on Archive of Our Own. I’d recommend you go there and search the tag with whatever filters you want - it’s so hard to suggest some when it’s ALL sooooooo good! What sort of thing do you like? Let me know if you want specific recs, I’ll read anything and have over 1000 fics in my bookmarks!
I’m probably better off mentioning writers - they’re mostly all on tumblr if you want to look but their fics are AMAZING. I started reading loads by firethesound (although stop all the clocks KILLED me so I wouldn’t read if you get sad easily) and then moved on to sprout2012 and Saras_Girl. I also love lomonaaeren femmequixotic noeon dictacontrion shiftylinguini birdsofshore and more recently bixgirl and thisbloodycat. Most of them are basically the gods of the drarry universe.They have written so many fics though that it will probably take you months to read them so choose carefully!
I’m probably missing loads but that’s a start for you. I started putting a list together and had about 3 people and now there’s a huge list lol. I’m crap with tumblr but think I’ve put links to something at least - let me know if it’s not working!
Summary: Harry Potter knew that having a baby by himself would be difficult, but when his son's other father arrives on his doorstep, furious and upset at not being told about Harry's pregnancy, Harry's already messy life becomes a thousand times more complicated.

Words cannot even express just how I much I freaking LOVE this fic.
Summary: After the Battle, Harry thinks he's left Hogwarts for good, but Minerva insists that all students return for an Eighth Year if they wish to sit for NEWTs in the spring, and Harry needs those NEWTs to go into the Aurors. Draco's just grateful not to be in Azkaban. Or the Manor. He's hoping he can steer clear of Potter this year and grapple with his own problems. Unfortunately for him, Potter appears to be one of those problems. And that's not even addressing the fact that Potter's got serious issues of his own, which Draco realises as he's forced to share an Eighth Year dormitory room and several classes with the Gryffindor Git. If only they can make it through the year without killing each other, it should be all right, shouldn't it?

Summary: Post-war Hogwarts has been energized by its new teaching fellows program. Where once bitter enmity divided the wizarding community, Malfoy and Potter chummily patrol hallways together whilst Granger and Zabini seek lost parts of the castle at McGonagall’s behest and Chang supervises Quidditch when not lecturing in Charms. It’s a veritable wizarding utopia and life is predictable for the first time in years. Which is, of course, when everything blows apart as the result of a drunken dare and Malfoy’s life is ruined beyond his capacity to repair it. Ever. In a million years.

Summary; Draco starts following Potterwatch secretly during the War. He wishes Potter would come save him too. But that sort of thing only happens in fairy tales, and Malfoys don't get fairy tale endings, do they?
And I am just about to start reading this one...
Conquering the Dark (Explicit, 23 K) noeon (noe)
Summary: Harry's a Healer specialising in the care of children, Draco Malfoy's an expert in neuromagic at St Mungo's. A difficult case forces them to work together and, in the process, unearths some of the trauma of the past, as well as the chance for healing in the present.

(Summaries and reviews behind the cut)
Written on the Heart by who-la-hoop ( NC-17 | 113,000 )
Summary: Harry doesn’t mind that so many Slytherins from his year have returned to finish their NEWTs, really he doesn’t. It’s just – do they have to be so friendly? He’s not prejudiced, really he’s not. It’s just – they’ve got to be up to something, right? Unnerved by the attention he’s attracting from everyone – the Slytherins are the least of it, to be fair – and struggling with a raft of changes to Hogwarts itself, Harry wishes he could be happy that one constant remains: Draco Malfoy really fucking hates him.
When he’s hit by an illegal love-spell though, Harry finds he has more to worry about than whether or not Blaise Zabini actually wants to be his friend. For if everyone affected has been blessed – or cursed, by the look on Malfoy’s face – with a magical tattoo revealing the name of their soulmate, what does it mean that Harry’s skin remains completely bare?
This fic hits all of my sweet spots: 8th year, soulmark tattoos, 113K and NC-17 \o/ I thought I'd died and gone to heaven when this posted! And it lived up to all of my hopes :) It was fantastic and beautiful.
I loved this take on the soulmark trope. Draco's mark *blossoming* for Harry is so wildly erotic! And the idea that it might not be reciprocated, or that Harry might not have a soulmate was heart-wrenching. Draco is so stoic and resigned about the whole thing, even though he's clearly pining away and his heart must be breaking into a hundred little pieces. And Harry, god Harry is so <i>clueless</i> but also so earnest and well-intentioned. I loved every moment of this, and only wish it could have gone on longer (because it was so good, not because it was lacking anything!)

Lumos by birdsofshore ( NC-17 | 42,000 )
Summary: Harry never expected to spend eighth year listening to Draco Malfoy wanking.
I so enjoyed this! I may be shallow, but I have to admit that I loved that this story didn't waste any time and got right into the sexual tension and the after-dark activities :) But even so it never felt gratuitous, and I adored how this was at heart a story of sexual awakening and exploration - of two young men who were new to things and still working out what they liked and wanted. The awkward intimacy was delicious.
And all of it was just beautifully written too, with natural dialogue that gives us glimpses of what all the characters have been up to without ever being info-dumpy. Harry's dawning realization that he likes Draco and wants to be with him is endearing, and I so appreciated how the misunderstanding that led to Harry almost hexing Nott and putting himself in the infirmary didn't feel overdone or stupid. Harry knew immediately that he had screwed up, and he wanted to fix it ASAP.
Also really loved the depiction of wandless magic and how seamlessless it was worked into the story. The whole thing was wonderful and rewarding to read.

Boom Clap (The Sound of My Heart) by @femmequixotic and @noeeon ( NC-17 | 39,600 )
Summary: Post-war Hogwarts has been energized by its new teaching fellows program. Where once bitter enmity divided the wizarding community, Malfoy and Potter chummily patrol hallways together whilst Granger and Zabini seek lost parts of the castle at McGonagall’s behest and Chang supervises Quidditch when not lecturing in Charms.

Which is, of course, when everything blows apart as the result of a drunken dare and Malfoy’s life is ruined beyond his capacity to repair it. Ever. In a million years.
I loved everything about this story! Draco's pining was incredibly moving, and his distrust of Harry's interest entirely believable. And I was thrilled with all the fantastic tropes interwoven into this fic - party games, the room of requirement, and the Mirror of Erised! And each one felt completely fresh and important to this story, not just tacked on. Especially the Mirror of Erised - the way this reveal was worked in was *awesome*. So, so, beautiful, and deeply romantic too ♥ The whole thing was a treat, and I'm so glad I got to read it!
(excerpted quote)
Weeds or Wildflowers by lq-traintracks and sdk ( NC-17 | 17,500 )
Summary: A perfect match, a romance for the ages, with a one hundred percent success rate! Magic Match claims they can give Draco all of this. So why do they keep sending him on dates with Harry Potter?
Super enjoyed this! All of their interactions and awkwardness and UST and everything is terrific. Just a completely immersing read. And holy hell was the sex scene hot! \o/ Loved Draco's slowly melting resistance to all things Potter, and Harry's openness and unabashed interest in Draco :)
(excerpted quote)
Lift Your Open Hand by @firethesound ( R | 19,000 )
Summary: With Draco Malfoy as his assigned partner for the next six weeks of Auror training, Harry had been prepared for things to go poorly. But getting themselves accidentally bonded to each other in the first twenty minutes of their very first assignment seemed going above and beyond, even for them.
Such a lovely story. Nice build to their interactions and so funny how Ron called out Harry for constantly checking out Draco's arse! I adored their first kiss - amazingly erotic for just a kiss :)
Oh, and I think I'd love to hear that lecture on Application Requests for the Submission of Evidence Confirming Uncorroborated New Testimony! What a mouthful of a topic ♥
hi! i'm looking for a fic that i read a couple years ago. it was on ao3, complete, mature or explicit i think? it's post-war, and the slytherins are sort of pariahs in wizarding society, i'm pretty sure draco is working at the owl shop sweeping/cleaning because he can't get another job, ron's an auror and depressed and abusing his power and not really in touch with harry and hermione anymore. it's pretty melancholy. the word roses might be in the title but i'm not sure. Thank you so much!
