HC: Harry is used to going to brunch at the Burrow alone (while everyone else brings their partner), and when he and Draco FINALLY get together, he brings Draco to brunch (where he is flustered, as Molly Weasley is so thrilled to *finally* have Harry's partner there)
Ahahaha i got around to answering this ^^’ oh my god i’m so sorry. There’s actually a few more that I have to do as well. I’ll get to them!!!
Well. This is it,Harry thought, rubbing his wrist absently as he did one last check in themirror to make sure he looked presentable. He heard clattering in the bedroomand a faint smile flickered onto his face as he heard the accompanied swear.
“What did you drop this time?” The man asked in amusementas he stepped out of the bathroom, watching his lover on his hands and kneesreaching for something under the vanity. He walked over to sit on the edge ofthe bed, fiddling with his cuffs.
“The bloody comb,” Draco muttered, straightening back upwith an exasperated expression on his face and the innocent comb in hand. Onelook at his expression and Harry could tell that he was just as nervous aboutthe brunch as he was. While he knew the Weasleys more than Draco did and knewfully well that they would be fine with whoeverhe brought, he knew that the other man was still anxious. “Harry, I don’t thinkI can-“
“Let me fix your collar,” Harry said quickly,interjecting swiftly enough that all Draco could do was swallow the rest of hiswords as the other man stood up and reached out for the collar that wasperfectly fine. He pressed his fingers in places, flattening the already stiffcloth as he smiled warmly into the pale face of the other. “I bet Molly willlike your outfit. Ron will mentally take some pointers but…probably won’t tellit to your face. Maybe you should talk to Bill. He’s got a rough-hewn kind offashion vibe but I swear the things he wear cost an ungodly amount of money.”
Draco’s hand reached up to rest on his wrist lightly. “Harry,”he sighed, a soft smile on his own face. It spoke a silent ‘thank you’ for thereassurances. “Nothing that Bill Weasley ever wears could come close to the things that I wear. He’llrecognize that the moment he’ll see me, I assure you. I doubt a conversationwould be necessary.”
Unable to help himself, Harry rolled his eyes at thetotally-expected and unsurprising response. But Draco was thoroughly distractedabout his insecurities and that was all that mattered.
“Ready to go, then?” He watched Draco take a quickbreath.
“Draco? Is that Draco Malfoy?”
Harry felt the way the other man immediately tensed athis side, their clasped hands suddenly growing tight as Molly Weasleyessentially shrieked their arrival from the kitchen. Every head in the vicinitywas turning quickly, wide eyes staring at the new couple in the fireplace.
“Er, Molly-“ Harry started to say, wanting to defendtheir relationship and Draco if he had to. However, the older lady had beatenhim to the punch, shocking them both as she threw herself at the other man in ahug.
“We are so happyto have you here!” She exclaimed and Draco stood, shell-shocked. It was onlywhen Ron and Hermione came over as well, greeting him with warm welcomes didthe hand in Harry’s relax.
A glance at the other man showed a hesitant, butgradually forming smile.
“I’m glad to be here. Thank you so much for inviting me.”
