Summary: Harry's answer to Draco's letter. Sequel to DEAR HARRY,
Author's note: I wasn't planning on continuing Draco's letter. It wasn't something planned, and since I wrote it out of the blue, I had no intentions of doing a response. Still, I got many requests to do Harry's letter, and so I did. If this letter has as much success as the previous, I will continue to do a series of letters until it reaches a conclusion.

Dear, Dear? Draco,

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't stunned to hear from you. I wasn't sure how to feel about it, though. Was I supposed to be happy? Sad? I didn't know what to expect from you, since the last time we saw each other you almost cursed me to get out of the apartment. But I couldn't help to smile when I started reading.

I wasn't expecting that letter, I thought everything was dead between us – you said so- and out of the blue you write and tell me that you love me and you want me back. Even as I'm writing this, I'm not sure what I'm going to say. I don't yet have an answer to what you asked me.

You say you miss me. If what you want to know is if I miss you as well, the answer is yes. I miss you every day, all day. Since I wake and 'till I go to bed, I miss you. But I don't want you to get your hopes up because of this, I'm not done.

You say you want me back, and there, is where I'm not sure. I'm not sure if things are ever going to be the same between us if I go back. I can't just take up your word where you say you are going to change, because I lost my confidence in you a while ago. I do love you, though. But I'm not even sure if that's enough any more.

How can I know if love is enough to be the foundation of a relationship? There are so many other factors to take into account that love almost loses its importance. You always said love wasn't such a big deal anyway, but I'm assuming you changed your mind. I want to believe in everything you say, but I'm not sure I can anymore.

I need to learn to trust you again. I need you to prove me that you change and that you can make this work. I love you, yes, but I need time. Can you give that to me?

Maybe, somewhat, yours,
Harry
