After staying on the property the day before, Harry was hoping to be able to check out the town nearby today. However, as far as everyone was aware, he and Ginny were still together, and perhaps it would be a little odd to them if they didn't spend any time together.

So when the family started making plans for the day, he kept quiet. The younger members of the family had heard about a place where they could go snowboarding, while the Weasleys decided they wanted to check out a museum they saw the day before.

Harry did not want to go snowboarding, so he was hoping Ginny would go for the museum, and luckily she did.

"I'm going into town!" Luna announces, and as expected, she is ignored by the younger ones, as they are too excited about snowboarding to change their plans for anything or anyone. Draco looked like he was about to join the museum group, but when he sees the disappointed look on Luna's face, he quickly joins her.

"I'll go with you." He smiles, his cheeks flushing ever so slightly when she grabs his arm and pulls him closer.

"You should go with them too," Ginny says, and even though they're not together anymore, the fact that she tells Harry she doesn't want him to go with her and her family today still hurts.

"I was thinking I'd go to the museum with you," Harry tries, but she shakes her head - silently telling him again that she doesn't want him there.

"Go with Luna, Harry," Ginny says, flashing a reassuring smile to hide the pain in her eyes. But it doesn't work, and for the first time Harry realises just why she is so cold with him - why every conversation leads to another fight. It's not because she's angry with him, but because the situation is still too painful, and because every minute she is forced to spend with him only reminds her of what they've lost.

Harry joins Luna, part of him happy that he still gets to go into town, but part of him unable to stop thinking about Ginny.

Luna being Luna, notices that he doesn't say a word as she happily chats away with Draco about the shops she saw on her way through town yesterday. So she finally lets go of Draco's arm - Draco breathing a sigh of relief, and flashing a sheepish grin when Harry catches him - before turning her attention to Harry.

"Are you okay?" she asks, "You seem upset."

"I'm just tired."

"Are you sure?" Luna asks, something about her caring smile making him want to tell her everything. But he knows that Ginny would kill him, so he nods, before quickly changing the subject.

"So, what shop do you want to go to first?"

Luna had dragged them into nearly every shop in the town center, and she had spent the longest time trying to find treasures that no one else would ever find. Harry had felt a little awkward, because she and Draco seemed to be able to talk so easily, whereas he kept overthinking everything he said. It had made him grow quiet, and it isn't until Luna has run off to try on clothes, and he is left alone with Draco, that he knows he should speak again.

"Aren't you going to try anything on?" Draco teases, pointing at a rack of very brightly-coloured trousers.

"I think I'll pass," Harry chuckles. Grateful that the other man is at least trying to make conversation. "I have to ask… that purple coat?"

"What about it?" Draco asks, cocking an eyebrow as he looks down at himself. Clearly well aware of how big and ridiculous the thing really is.

"Nothing." Harry shakes his head, wondering to himself when Draco changed. When he stopped caring about what he looked like and started caring about comfort instead. But then Harry remembers just what he went through and what he lost, and in a way it makes sense. Most days he wishes he could wrap a blanket around himself and curl up inside of it too, and that damned purple coat sure is like the wearable version of a comfort blanket.

"I bet it's a lot warmer than the thing you're wearing."

"I bet it is," Harry agrees, a little embarrassed when he looks down at the coat he's wearing. Ginny had picked it out for him, and it's some designer brand. They bought it so he could wear it for an event they had to attend just before they moved back to England, and even though it did nothing to hold back the cold, it cost a fortune, so Harry will keep wearing it until it's fallen apart.

"You look like you're freezing."

"It's fine." Harry shrugs, but when Draco checks to make sure Luna is still trying on clothes, before making his way over to the coats, he does follow him.

Draco pulls out a coat almost as ridiculous as his own, but he quickly puts it back on the rack. He ignores a few coats that look as thin as the one Harry is wearing right now, before pulling out a long, dark green wool coat.

Harry can't help but laugh, because this is the exact coat he would have expected the Draco Malfoy he used to know to wear - as the colour reminds him of the Slytherin colours. But Draco doesn't even seem to notice, because he holds the coat out in front of Harry, a small smile forming on his lips as he checks him out.

"You should try it on."

"No, it's…"

"It's warm, Harry."

Harry knows that he is right, and if Draco can pull off wearing that purple thing, perhaps he can get away with wearing this coat. So he takes it from him, and as soon as he has put it on, it feels like that warm blanket he has been longing for ever since he got here.

"How does it feel?" Draco asks, the smile on his face enough to tell Harry that it must be obvious just how comfortable he is.

"It's definitely warm…"

"You should see how it looks."

Harry cringes, because he would really rather not. He can already imagine how ridiculous he looks, and he doesn't want to have to take the coat off and put it back on the rack.

Draco senses his hesitation, because he shoves him towards the mirror - a knowing grin on his face when he sees the look of shock on Harry's face.

"You should get it."

"Harry!" Luna exclaims when she spots them in front of the mirror. "You look great! Please tell me you're going to buy it! You look like a…"

"I'm buying it," Harry quickly cuts her off, not sure if he wants to know what she thinks he looks like. With Luna it could be anything, from some creature he doesn't know, to a flower, to someone they used to know. Right now he likes how he looks, so let's not ruin that.

"Go on." Luna smiles. "I'll hold your old coat while you pay."

Harry doesn't hesitate to give it to her, and even though he can hear her and Draco whisper, and he can see some movement in the corner of his eye, he is too busy paying for the coat to pay any attention to it.

"He won't need a bag," Luna quickly says as the man begins to fold up the green coat. "And could you cut off the tag? He is going to wear it right away."

"Wait, but what about…" Harry turns around, and only now does he notice that Draco - and his old coat - are gone. "What have you done with it, Luna?"

"Me? I haven't done anything." Luna grins innocently. "Go on, put on your new coat."

Harry wants to tell her off for taking his old - and extremely expensive - coat, but instead, he finds himself giving her a big hug. Getting rid of the old coat feels like a change, it feels like he is starting to move on to his new life. His divorced life. Ginny had picked out the coat, as she had picked out most of his expensive and stylish, but very uncomfortable and itchy clothes, and every time he put the coat on he couldn't help but think of her. To finally get rid of it feels good, and he knows he should have done it a long time ago.

He is grateful to both Luna and Draco for this push, and even though it's just a damned coat, it means more to him than that. He wishes he could explain that to her, and to Draco even. He wishes he could thank them properly, but he knows that he can't. Not yet.

"Better?" Draco asks when Harry and Luna meet him outside the shop - the old coat now gone. Although Harry is not quite sure where it has gone or what has happened to it.

"Much better." Harry nods, surprised to feel the urge to hug him too. "Thank you."
