Zacharias Smith is walking through a crowd of wizards talking, laughing and drinking. Zach is looking through the crowd trying to spot someone. Someone pats Zach's shoulder.
"Hey, Great party Zach."Terry Boots says.
"Hey, have you seen Harry."
"No. Haven't seen him all night." Terry replay's.
"Alright. let me know if you see him." Then he walks off. Back to weaving through the crowd.
HDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHD HDHDHD
Harry Potter stands in front of the fireplace, impassively looking at his girlfriends head in the green flames.
"I told Zach to make the arrangements. Didn't he owl you?"
"Yes, he did. I speak to Smith more than I speak to you Harry. "
"Can we not do this now." Running a hand through his gelled down Harry.
"I have my own life to you know. "
"I need you here Gin."
"But you never give me any notice. I have my Quidditch career to think about Harry, but you don't think about me anymore. You just think I'm at your beck and call. "
"That's not true Gin. "
"Well that's the way you make me feel. Maybe we should spend some time apart. "
"Gin." Harry says in a tired voice.
"Goodbye Harry." And closes the floo.
Harry signs while looking at the ground. He gets up from in front of the fireplace and walked to the window. Harry stands at the window, impassively looking down at the party. Harry looks like a different man then he did at Hogwarts. He is now handsome, well-groomed man(With the help with five different hair potions to make it tame looking.)with no more round glasses. Zacharias said it would help his reputation if he lost the glass and showed off the green eyes that he inherited from his mother. His is coming close to thirty with no family and he just lost his off-again on-again girlfriend that might be for the last time. He looks tired. The kind of fatigue that can't be cured by a night's sleep.
After the war. The ministry thought it would be a good idea to use Harry's face to bring hope and faith back into the ministry. At first he told them all to fuck off and leave him alone. But after the hassling from Hermione, he agreed to attend a few ministry charity functions. A few lead to a few more. And before he knew what was happening. Ten years already passed by, and he became a shadow of the man he used to be.
Every second of his day was planned out by his assistant, Zacharias Smith. The ministry hired Zach when Harry kept coming to ministry functions late, or missing them all together. Harry liked to believe Zach's changed since the war. Even if every one of his friends disagree. He is a pushy, and at times over critical of Harry's appearance. Which he later change to fit the masses better.
He still sees Hermione and Ron when he can fit it into his schedule. But as Harry's time became more scares, they started to drift apart. Hermione one time said that it was the changes in Harry that was making them drift apart. He didn't see either of them for three months after that comment. After all it was all Hermione's idea to get involved with the ministry.
Things with Ginny after the war were just not the same. He lost the spark he felt for her in sixth year. Things just got worse after she joined the Holy Harpies and he starting becoming the face of the ministry. When they were taking a break. He tried going on a few dates. Men and Women. He just never found that spark with anyone. Over time he just stopped believing in it.

Hermione, Ron and Harry are in the kitchen of Hermione and Ron's little cottage. It's a bit small, but cozy. Perfect for his two best friends. Hermione works at a small law firm. Ron tried being an auror for a few years, but it just didn't feel right. He now works with George in his shop now, and is Happier there then he ever was as an auror.
"So, Harry. How are you and Ginny?" Hermione asked while taking the tea kettle off the stove.
"We broke up." Taking the cup of tea Hermione is handing him.
"That was faster than the last breakup. "Ron says while shoving a biscuit into his mouth.
"Ron!" Hermione exclaims at Ron for his blunt statement.
"What!"
"You should feel bad for Harry. Not pick fun at his broken relationship." Hermione said in a stern voice.
Ron just continues shoveling more biscuits into his mouth. Hermione looks away from Ron and back a Harry. "What happened."
"She said I never pay attention to her life anymore, and I expect her to be at my beck and call." Harry says while taking a sip of the black tea Hermione gave him.
"Well. When's the last time you saw one of her games, or taken her out to dinner."
" Well I've been really busy lately. Zach has my schedule booked solid for the next three months. And I did take her out to dinner last week." Harry says back in a not as gentle voice as Hermione's.
" Dinner functions don' count as a night out mate. " Ron says while getting another pack of biscuits out of the cupboard.
"It's fine. She just needs some space." Harry says, but thinking if he would even care if she decides to never come back.
"Well, your always welcome here Harry. " Hermione smiles at Harry while patting his hand.
"Thanks." Harry says while taking anther sip of his tea.
HDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHD HDHDHD
Harry is walking around the Ministry Charity Function for some wing in the ministry that Harry seemed to forget the name of.
Zacharias spots Harry across the room.
"Harry."
Harry groans inside while Zach makes his way across the room with some older Chinese man who looks like he could hundred and twenty.
"Harry, this is Mr. Nakamura. His family has been with the ministry of magic in China since 1900 B.C. He wanted to talk with you about donating to the ministry's retired Aurors fund. "
Harry breathes out heavily through his nose before he looks up and holds out his hand for Mr. Nakamura with a big grin on his face.
"Hello Mr. Nakamura. So about that donation."
HDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHD HDHDHD
Harry is descends the long, curved stairways in the mansion were the fundraiser is being held.
" Harry!"
A man Harry doesn't recognize is calling out to Harry. Harry straightens up while turning on his charm."Yes!" with a big smile on his face.
"Will we see you at the quidditch matches Wednesday?"
"Wouldn't miss it."
Harry abruptly turns back around to the front door. Harry comes out of the house and starts to walk down the path to the front gate were the anti-Apparition shield isn't up. Zach comes out of the house and down the walk way.
"What's up, where you going?"
"I'm going for a walk."
"At least stay for a drink."
" I need to get some air."
Zach shuffles his feet."Listen, there's some major local talent inside just dying to meet you_"
"Really? Some high-class gold digger wants to get with the great Harry Potter? "Harry says in a sarcastic voice.
Harry turns away. "No, thank you."Harry turns and starts to walk back down the path.
"Do you even know where you're going!"
Harry just waves his hand over his shoulder and keeps walking while Zach continues to yell at his retreating form. When he gets to the end of the path. He Apparates.
HDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHD HDHDHD
Harry stumbles when he lands. He lifts his head and looks around. He realises he is in the neighborhood were Dean and Seamus had their bachelor parties. That was a memorable night. That was the night that he find out he was not only attracted to women, but men as well. He remembered Ginny and him were having a row, and so he went on a little bit of a bender. Small story short, he took one of the male strippers into the back room for a private lap dance. Ginny was not to please when he came home that night with a stain on his pants and swollen lips. That was our third break up.
Harry starts to look around at crumbling old apartment building, dodgy alley ways and deserted parking lot. A see's a dark skin man strolling down the other side of the street in a mini skirt and pink stockings. The man looks up at Harry and winks. Harry looks away and picks up his pace.
Harry continues his walking down the street. Getting lost in his surroundings. After awhile he blinks, shakes his head as if trying to rid himself of his own tired thoughts. He looks up to see a silhouette leaning against a wall near a dark alley. Harry slows his walking and trys to get a better look at the pale man. He is dressed in tight black leather pants and a black button up shirt half undone. Showing off his pale complexion. His hair is white blonde and falling over. Blocking his face. When Harry gets closer. The male looks up at him with his silver eyes.
"Malfoy!" Harry says with shocked eyes.
"Great." Draco mumbles.
"Blimey, Malfoy! What are you doing here? "
""Sod off, Potter. I don't have time for your babbling right now. " Turning his face away from Harry's.
"What! To busy selling yourself on the street? Why are you even doing this? "
"That's none of your business! Now unless you are planning to pay. I would like it if you would get lost before you start making me lose customers. " Draco says while pulling out a cigarette and lighting it with the end of his wand.
"You shouldn't smoke. It's bad for you." Harry says while getting a closer look at Draco.
"Bite me." Draco sneers out.
...
"Are you leaving, or not? " Draco bites out.
"How much?"
"What!" Draco says and looks up Potter. He takes in his appearance for the first time in their encounter. He seems to have filled out since his times at Hogwarts. Gone are his scraggly limbs and bird-nest hair. He also grew a bit in height too. Getting close to Draco's height. He also seems to have lost the glasses, which leaves Draco to be able to see his emerald eyes to the fullest.
"10 galleons for an hour. " Draco finally answers.
"Alright."
"make that 20 ."
Harry sighs. "Fine. Now, how do we do this?"
Draco reclines against the wall. "Well. We could go to a hotel. Or we could use this alley way right here behind me. " Pointing his thumb in the direction of the alley next to him.
Harry makes a disgusted face. "Let's go to a hotel. "
"Suit yourself. But your paying for the room. "
Harry makes an agitated face. "Fine. Where is it. "
"It's down this way." Draco puts out the cigarette with his shoes. He then starts walking down the street with Harry in tow. They continue there walk till the come upon an old rundown hotel with the H lights blinking on and off. Draco walks through the front door. When he get's inside, he walks up to the counter and ask the clerk for a room key. The clerk hands him the key and tells him room 203.
"Come on. Were on the third floor." Draco says and goes up the stairs. After walking up three flights of stairs, Draco walks down a narrow hallway till he reaches room 203. He puts the key in the lock and opens the door for Harry to walk in before him.
Harry walks into the room and takes in the room. It's a faded burnt orange color with paint peeling of the show the peach color underneath. The floor is a light beige color that was probably white when it was first put in. Off to the side, there is a small door leading to the bathroom. The bed is average size with a rusty iron frame. Harry walked over and sat on the end of the bed. Trying not to freak out about what's about to happen.
"So. how do we do this. " Harry said looking over at Draco.
"Well you paid for the hour. So anything you want. " Draco walks over to Harry. " But I don't kiss on the mouth. "
" I can work with that." Harry replays while leaning back while Draco straddles him.
HDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHD HDHDHD
Harry and Draco are laying side by side together panting.
"That was brilliant."Harry says between breaths.
"You weren't to bad yourself, wonder boy. "
Harry puts his elbow on the bed and puts his head in his hand. Looking down at Draco. Harry brushes some of the sweaty hair out of draco's face. Draco smiles up at Harry. Harry smiles back. Feeling more relaxed then he has in a long time.
HDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHD HDHDHD
Draco is walking down a dim hallway. A door suddenly opens, startling him. Behind the door is Mr. Hurst. An unshaved, enormously pot bellied man in a stained t-shirt stares at Draco.
Mr. Hurst, "DRACO!"
Draco turns around. "Yeah, what?"
"Rent. You're late."
" Don't give me that . Pansy gave it to you yesterday, cash."
"Parkinson gave me nothin'."
Draco rolls his eyes. "Fine. I'll give it to you tomorrow." Draco hurries at a run back down the hallway.
"By the end of the week, or you're otta here!"
HDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHD HDHDHD
"PANSY!" Draco shouts when he walks to through the door.
"What!" Pansy shouts from the kitchen.
Draco walks toward the kitchen. " Did you pay the landlord the rent for this month?" Draco says when he spots Pansy.
"I may have forgot." Pansy says while avoiding Draco's eyes.
"You used it on drugs didn't you. " Draco says with accusations in his words.
" Steve from down the hall had some great rock. It's some rare stuff from this old tribe in Africa. I still have some left in the cupboard if you_"
Draco cuts her off. " You can't keep doing this pans! That was our rent for the month!"
"Calm down will ya. Your giving me a headache." Pansy says while rubbing her hands down her face.
Draco exhaling heavily and sits down next to Pansy. "We worked really hard for that money Pans. " Draco says in a more gentle voice now. "We were going to use that money to get out of this hell hole. "
"Be realistic Draco. Were never leaving this place. Were stuck here till everyone starts looking at us like people, and not death eater scum." Pansy says with
disheartenment in her voice.
Draco looked away with hurt in his eyes. Pansy see's this a feels a peg of guilt for bringing this look onto his face.
"Look. So I blew our rent. We could make that on one good night." Pansy says. Trying to get Draco out of his depressing state of mind. "Don't be mad at me. I'll get the money back. I promise." Pansy says while patting Draco's hand that's on the table top.
Draco looks over to her. " I thought you were going to quit doing all this drug shit? "
Pansy shrugs. "It's hard to stop. I'll try better this time, okay. " Pansy says will giving Draco a winning smile.
"Alright then. " Draco replys. Hoping this time she means it. "Oh! I almost forgot! You will not believe who picked me up tonight."
"Who? "
"Harry Potter. " Draco says with a grin.
"No!" Pansy says with an estonished face.
"Yes." Draco says. Still grinning.
"Get out!"
" I know! I couldn't believe it either. One minute I'm wait at my usual corner. The next, Harry Potter walks by and offers to buy me for an hour. I even charged him double!"
"Was he any good?" Pansy says witha sneaky grin on her face.
" Not the best I've had, but not the worst. He has a pretty good size penis though." Draco responsed with a sneaky grin of his own.
"Salazar! You always get the best clients. Makes me regret opening you up to this market. "
"I don't always get the good ones. Remember that Russian business trader who had a fondness of cricket bats. " draco says. Making a displeasing face at the memory while shifting in his seat.
"I forgot about him. "
"So. Do you think he'll come back?" Pansy asked after a few seconds.
"Who? The Russian? I hope not. My arse hurt forever after his session. "
"No! Potter! " Pansy exclaims to his response.
"Oh. " Draco looks down at the table. " I'm not sure. " Thinking to himself if he would even like seeing Potter again. Pansy and Draco sit in silence for a awhile.
"You've always been able to get Harry to come back for more in School. You guys could never keep away from each other. Even if it was only fighting." Pansy says with a shrug.
"Ya. I guess." Draco responds. Still looking at the table. They continue to sit in silence till it was time for sleep.

Harry is going over all his mail for the week. The amount of thank you cards and date invitations seem to just increase every year. Harry hears a tapping at his window, and see's another owl delivery more mail. Harry let's out a heavy breathe. He get's up and let's the owl in. Once he retrieves the letter and gives the owl a trip for the trip. Harry dumps the letter into the pile.
It's been one week since he saw draco. It's all he's been thinking about all week. 'It's been so long since I've felt a connection like that with a nother person.' Not to mention the best shag he's every has as well. ' I wonder if it will be to soon to go back for a second go?'
Harry looks down at the pile over letters. Harry get's up, grabbing his coat, and heads for the front door.
HDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHD HDHDHD
Draco opens the door to his apartment. Down the hallway, the landlord is standing in front of his open doorway, talking to some larger sized women with a muted pink dress on. They both glance up. Draco quickly closes the door. He doesn't want to deal with them right now.
He re-enters his apartment and walks over to the window. Draco comes off the fire escape onto the sidewalk. He hurried away.
HDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHD HDHDHD
Draco walks down the street he walks down every night. He see's an auror talking with some drugged out homeless man. Going through is bag, and looking at the content.
homeless man, " I'm telling you, I don't know how that got in their. It's not mine. "
" Then where did it come from? " The Auror questions the man.
Draco quickly passes them. Not wanting to get involved. Up ahead he see's two young girls spelling their hair different colors. They look over at Draco when he passes him, but don't say anything to him.
Draco see's Pansy a few blocks away from him. He walks over to her direction. He see's her talking to some other prostitute that doesn't seem to pleased. The woman has on fishnet stockings with a red mini dress under a white fur coat.
"Hey Pans." Draco says when he get's closer.
"Oh! Hey! " She turns around to greet him.
"You and your little friend better move. This is my corner. Go back to that dump you call a home. " The women says to Draco and Pansy with a sneer directed at the both of them.
" Lay off Rachel. You don't own this corner. And besides. Draco and I have been hustling this corner for months now, and I haven't seen you anywhere it. " Pansy replys to women.
"Hmp. Just wait till Marcus hears about this. " She then turns around and stomps away in her four-inch heels.
Draco turns toward Pansy from looking at her storm off. " who's Marcus?"
Pansy turns to Draco, "Oh, he's just a local pimp. You know Draco. It might not be a bad idea_"
Draco cuts her off. "forget it. We work for the money. We keep it. End of story. " folding his arms over his chest.
Pansy, " Fine. fine. Don't bite my head off. I was just making a suggestion. " throwing her hands in the air. " Come on. Let's get out their before their all taken for the night." Pansy and Draco walking closer to the curb.
"I think I'm done for the night. " Pansy says while collapsing into the wall behind her.
" Slow tonight. " Draco says while putting out a cigaret.
"Hmmm. " Pansy turns her head back to the street. " Wait! Is that Potter walking over here." Pansy says while squinting her eyes at a person across the street looking over at them.
Draco looks over at the person Pansy is looking at. Draco's eyes widen at seeing Harry standing across the road with a trench coat on, and making quick glancing over to Draco and Pansy. " It is. I didn't think he would come back. " Still looking at Harry. Not sure what to do.
" Well hurry over their." Pansy says while pushing Draco in his direction. "You don't want someone else taking him do you?"
"Alright. Alright. I'm going. Why don't you go home for the night. I'll see you later." Draco says while walking across the street towards Harry.
" Alright mom. And don't accept anything less than twenty! " Pansy yells before he get's to far away.
Draco shakes his head. When Draco gets closer he can see that Harry is wearing tailored trousers and dragonhide loafers. He seems to be very put together.
"Hey." Harry says when Draco gets closer.
"Hey yourself. " Draco responds while leaning into Harry's personal space.
"Was that Pansy over there?" Harry ask while looking across the street were Pansy was still standing. Watching there interaction.
Draco looks over at her. He scuffs at her blatant staring. " Yes. " He looks away from Pansy and looks back at Harry. "So. Where do you want to do this. Back to the motel or are you going to try your luck with the alley this time. "
"I'd rather not go back to the hotel if you don't mind. Is my place alright?" Harry ask. Not sure if it was a good idea to bring Draco to his house or not.
"Not a problem with me." Draco says with a shoulder shrug. " So how do you want to do this. Do you want to tell me the cordinates, or are we going to side-along apparate?" Draco ask. Looking at Harry for his response.
"Side-along Apparation is fine. Can you go now?" Harry ask.
Draco loops one of his arm around Harry's and looks over at Harry. " I'm all yours." Draco says with a flirtatious smile.
Harry gives a nervous smile back and apparates.
HDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHD HDHDHD
Harry apparates Draco and him right inside the front door of Number 12 Grimmauld place.
"So. You're the one who inherited the Black house. " Draco says while walking down the hall.
" You've been here before?" Harry asked.
" Once. " Draco sits down on the couch in the living room. " My mother brought me here when I was little. It was just as dark and gloomy then as it is now."
" I've been busy. I was going to clean it up when I took some time off work. " Harry says while sitting down on the chair across from Draco. " What do you charge for the whole night?"
"hmm." Draco responds while observing his surroundings. "I'll make you a deal. How about sixty for the night? That good with you?"
Harry nods his head. "Ya. That's good."
...
" What do you want to do first?"
Harry looks over to Draco walking over to his chair. Draco slowly sits down on his knee in front of Harry. He is slowly rubbing his hands up and down his inner thighs. Draco is looking up a Harry with a predator look in his eyes. Harry is starting to have trouble breathing. Harry lowers his hands to Draco's cheek and strokes it with his thumb.
"You really are very handsome." Harry says softly. Still looking into Draco's eyes.
Draco gives Harry a sincere smile fo that comment.
"Such a romantic. " Draco says in a husky voice. Leaning closer to Harry's face.
Harry, "Yes..." 'His mouth is so wet and inviting... Harry thinks to himself. Harry leans closer...
Draco, "Me too."
Harry is about to kiss Draco...
Draco, "Not on the lips."
Harry freezes. Then Draco leans up and bites Harry on the neck.
HDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHD HDHDHD
Draco and Harry are on the bed. Harry is on his back, his shoulder and head resting against the headboard. Draco is astride him, hands resting on his chest, rocking... in control, confident... very much liking the fire he's kindled in his eyes.
Harry, "What do you like?" Rubbing his hands up and down Draco's chest.
Draco, "If I want you to turn me on. I'll pay you sixty. Just lay back and let me do what I do best."
Smiling, Draco reaches behind himself, touching Harry. Harry tries not to groan at the sudden contact. Draco start moving faster now. Harry suddenly pulls him violently to him, he rolls him over.
HDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHDHD HDHDHD
A heavy spray of water comes down upon Harry. He stands there quietly letting it wash over him. He turns off the shower, steps out of the stall, picks up a towel and dries himself walking into the bedroom. Harry stares at the room. His expensive clothes are on the floor, haphazardly dropped everywhere. Draco's button-up shirt and leather pants, are neatly folded and piled on a chair. He looks toward the bed. Draco is fast asleep. His face is relaxed. Harry can't recall him ever seeing his face so relaxed before in all the years he's known Draco. Harry thinks to himself he wouldn't mind seeing this side of Draco more.
He stares at him a moment longer. He turns, and goes over to his writing desk. Draco opens his eyes. He sees Harry sitting at a desk reading over some papers with a pensive look on his face. Draco closes his eyes and falls back asleep.
Harry looks up when he hears his floo calling. He get's up from his desk and heads out the bedroom door. Taking one more glance at Draco's sleeping form.
Harry walks into his study to see Zach's head in his fireplace.
"Mrs. Malkin knows about us trying buy out her shop. " Zach Says as soon as he see's Harry.
"What? How?" Harry ask.
"I'm not sure. But her son and her want to meet with you. I don't think that would be a smart move. " Zach says with disapproval.
" I'll do it. Alone. "
" What! If you meet with by yourself they'll eat you alive. I can't let you do it. It's to risky. This deal is to important for the ministry. "
" It'll be fine. I'll meet them for dinner. Tonight. Make it more casual instead and trying to get on their good side. " Harry says. Trying to convince Zach.
"I don't know. " Zach says while making a questioning face.
Harry hears footsteps walking around upstairs. 'Draco must have woken up. ' Harry thinks to himself.
" Look. I got to go. Floo me later with the dinner plans, Kay. " Harry says quickly while closing the floo.
The door opens behind Harry. He turns around and see's Draco leaning against the door frame.
"You didn't wake me? "
Harry stands up. "You looked like you could use the sleep. Do you want any breakfast?"
Draco shrugs his shoulders. " Sure. " He turns around and starts walking down the stairs towards the kitchen.
Harry quickly follows. When he reaches the kitchen he see's Draco standing next the table. Kreacher is by the stove finishing cooking the bacon. " Sit anywhere you like. "
Draco walks over to the end of the table and sits down. Harry takes the sit across from him. Harry starts to fill up his plate with eggs, Sausage, Toast and some of the bacon Kreacher just finished cooking.
"If master needs anything else. Let Kreacher know. " Kreacher then bows at Draco and Harry.
"No. That should be all Kreacher. Thank you. " Harry says while pouring himself a cup of coffee.
Kreacher bows again and then walks out of the room.
" I didn't know you had a house elf?"
Harry looks up at Draco. He seemed to have filled his plate full. Harry thought to himself when was the last time Draco had a meal like this. " Yeah. His family has served the Black family for centuries. He became my House elf when I inherited the house. did you sleep well?"
Draco, " Yes. Very well. " Draco finishes his plate. " Is it alright if I use your bath? Might be nice to clean up after all we got up to last night."
Harry blushes. " Ya. That's fine. You remember which room is mine?"
Draco stands up from the table. " I remember. Excuse me. " Draco walks through the kitchen door.
Harry hears the floo going off again. He puts his fork done and heads back the study. 'That was fast.' Harry opens the door to the study to see, once again today, Zach's head in the flames.
"It's all set for tonight. You will be eating at The Rose and Thorn."
Harry kneels down. " Good. "
Zach, " I made the reservations for four. I know you said you wanted to go by yourself, but I don't think that's a smart plan. "
" I won't be going by myself." Harry smiles.
Zach looks up with surprise. " Are you and Ginny back together. "
" No. I'm spending some time with someone else right now. "
" Alright then. Make sure you don't cock this up. This is a big investment. "
Harry sighs. "Yes. I know. I'll talk with you later. "
" Floo me after the dinner to let me know how it went. "
" Alright." Harry cuts off the floo connection. He get's up and head for his bedroom. When he gets to the bathroom door he hears Draco's hemming some song by the weird sisters. Harry opens the door to see Draco in his bathtub. Bubbles covering his body. With the smell of apples in the air. " I want to buy you for the week."
Draco looks up in surprise. Not hearing Harry walking in the room. " What?"
"I want to buy you for a week. " Harry repeats. "
Draco looks at Potter trying to figure out what he's planning. 'Maybe he just wants to have someone around to fuck when he gets off work . He did just get dumped by his girlfriend.' " It's going to cost you."
" How much."
"seven hundred."
"five."
"Six."
"Deal." Harry looks done at draco and smiles. " I'll let you finish your bath now." I walks out through the door and closes it behind him.
Draco releases a breath of air he didn't know he was holding. " Holy shit!" Draco dunks his head under the water. He comes up for air a second later. " six hundred galleons. " Draco smiles at the number. " Looks like things are getting better. " Draco reclines his head against the bathtub and closes his eyes. Smiling to himself.
