"All my flowers grew back as thorns
Windows boarded up after the storm
He built a fire just to keep me warm
All the drama queens taking swings
All the jokers dressin' up as kings
They fade to nothing when I look at him"
- Taylor Swift "Call It What You Want"
When Harry awoke the next morning, he was being pecked by none other than the Weasley owl Errol. He tried and failed to push the owl away. It just kept pecking him and staring at him. It was quite unnerving.
Draco rolled over after feeling movement on the bed and opened his eyes to his Harry swatting a freakishly odd owl. "Bloody hell, Potter! Why is their an owl in our bed?" He glared at the owl for disturbing his sleep.
Harry chuckled. "Oh I'm sorry your highness for disturbing your beauty sleep. At least you aren't being pecked by a bloody crazy owl!" He huffed. "By the way, meet Errol he's the Weasley's senile old owl."
Draco quirked his eyebrow up and looked at Harry. "Wait, is that the same owl that delayed Hagrid's return in second year?" Harry nodded. "Bloody hell! So what does it want?"
Harry took the letter that was attached to the owl's leg and opened it. He chuckled. "Looks like Hermione made good on her threat to tell Molly about Ron's behaviour the other day. Molly would like us to come by for tea." Errol was still staring at Harry.
Draco shook his head. "Just tell her we will be there so that senile owl leaves. Plus I really do not want to miss Molly tearing into Ron especially after hearing her howler in second year." He laughed.
Harry shook his head as he chuckled and wrote a quick reply. Once he was done he attached the letter to Errol's leg and the owl flew off in zig zags.
Draco pulled Harry back into bed and Harry rolled over to face Draco. "If you would like we could get some more sleep." He caressed Draco's cheek.
Draco hummed in contentment. "I have a better idea." He smirked mischievously. He scooted closer to Harry until their noses were inches apart.
Draco slowly moved forward until their lips touched. Harry deepened the kiss and wrapped his arm around him until they were flush against each other. Both moaned softly into the kiss. They continued to kiss until they were unceremoniously interrupted by Errol the owl once again. Harry groaned and muttered as he wrote an answer to the letter.
Harry sighed sadly. "Dray, we better get ready to go to the Burrow. But when we return, I suggest that we continue what we started." He smirked at a stunned Draco.
He gave Draco a short kiss before leaving the room.
Both Draco and Harry got cleaned up so they were presentable to the Weasleys. Once ready, Harry intertwined their hands together as they stepped into the floo and shouted "the Burrow!"
They appeared in the Burrow in a matter of seconds. For once, Harry didn't land on his face because Draco steadied him. As they oriented themselves with their surroundings, Harry and Draco noticed that Severus and Hermione were also present. Hermione smiled softly at both boys and Severus nodded at them both. Harry continued to survey the room. Luna was smiling brightly at them both while Ginny was smirking. Molly was just watching them with a sweet smile while Ron looked like something that Crookshanks dragged in.
Molly stepped forward and hugged them both tightly. "Welcome my dears! It is so lovely to see you. It was good of you to come for tea. And Draco welcome to the family!" She gave him a kiss on the cheek and gave him an extra hug.
Draco smiled shyly. "Thank you for being so kind to me considering all the bad blood between our families. I hope to change that."
Molly looked at him. "Oh nonsense Draco! It's all in the past. The moment I knew you made our Harry happy, that's all that truly mattered. Anyone Harry cares for so deeply as he does you, must be good at heart. There is a reason our dear Harry here spoke at your trial and your mother's. He never thought ill of you. He knew you and your mother were in a difficult situation throughout the return of Voldemort and the subsequent war. So you and Harry have our support with whatever you may need." She smiled sweetly at Draco.
Draco looked up at her with tears in his eyes. "Never in my wildest dreams, I thought my life would have such a brilliant life and boyfriend or become an honorary member of the Weasley family by way of Harry." He chuckled softly at the last bit of his statement. Harry pulled him closer to him and wiped away his tears.
Molly watched them fondly. "Honestly, I never would have imagined a Malfoy would be a part of our family but stranger things have happened in this world like you and Harry getting together. Both of you were quite horrendous in school to each other." She chuckled when both boys blushed.
Ginny and Luna both came forward and unexpectedly hugged Draco. Everyone was gawking at them. Luna spoke first as they pulled back. "Draco, you don't have any wrackspurts buzzing about your head. I'm sure it's due to Harry. I knew you two would end up being close." She gave him a dreamy smile. Draco looked a bit bewildered.
Ginny smiled at her girlfriend. "Luna, you are my angel." She kissed her on the cheek. "Draco, my mum is right. The past should stay in the past. Welcome to the family."
Molly interrupted the greetings. "I called you four here for a purpose. Ronald, get your arse over here." She gave her son a tight smile. Ron walked into the room with his head down. "Now do the right thing." She nodded to him.
Harry, Draco, Hermione and Severus all watched Ron intently as he walked to them.
Ron stopped when he got close enough and cleared his throat nervously. "I, uh, wanted to apologise to you all for my behaviour. I shouldn't've judged you for who fell in love with. Harry, after everything you've been through you deserve brilliant things. Draco, I let my prejudices against your family cloud my better judgment. Hermione, I always thought we would be together for life and seeing you with Snape was a shock but I still never should've said those horrid things to you. Snape, after all you have done for our world I should've been more respectful. I'm so sorry for everything I said and done. I hope you all can forgive me someday." He looked at them sheepishly.
They all nodded at him. Harry looked at Ron. "I speak for everyone. You will need to earn our trust and forgiveness. Nothing half arsed and if you step one toe out of line, that will be the end. No more chances." Hermione, Severus and Draco all nodded in agreement to what Harry had just said. "Oh and it's Severus. We're no longer his students so we are all on a first name basis from now." He smiled at Severus who nodded to him but he sneered at Ron.
Ron looked a bit peaky to say the least at Harry's words and solemnly nodded. It seemed he could not find the words to say to his friend. Harry nodded back curtly.
Molly interrupted with an announcement that tea was ready and everyone bustled into the cramped sitting area. At first, it was in silence but then everyone relaxed and started talking about a variety of subjects.
As tea started to wind down, guests started to leave. Of course Molly hugged each and every one goodbye. Draco and Harry were the last to leave. They chatted with Molly a bit before heading out. They were going to say goodbye to Ron but he had vanished. Probably licking his wounds after being attacked by everyone, though rightly so considering how he treated his supposed friends. Again Molly hugged them tightly and kissed them on their cheeks.
Once they walked out the door and out of the protective barrier, they apparated back to Grimmauld Place. They landed in the sitting room and dropped like rocks into the nearest seat. Both sighed in relief that tea at the Weaseley's was over.
Draco snuggled into Harry and kissed his neck softly. "Harry love, I think I need some rest after that. Care to join me?" He smiled impishly.
Harry chuckled. "Dray, I swear if I didn't know any better I'd think you were a cat." Draco laughed. "But yes I'll join you. Anywhere you go, I go." He kissed Draco ghostly soft and stood up. He helped Draco up and pulled him out of the room and up the stairs into their bedroom. After removing their clothes aside from their shirts and underwear.
Both Draco and Harry laid on the bed gently and scooted closer until they were nose to nose. Any time they were laying near each other, their breathing would become erratic. Always so nervous around each other when they were alone.
Harry could not take the tension any longer as he surged forward and kissed Draco passionately. Within seconds Draco responded with just as much passion. Both needed each other more than air itself. They explored each other's bodies and moaned in pleasure. After stripping each other, Harry pushed Draco down and straddled him. He started to rut against Draco until they were moaning each other's names.
Draco stared up at Harry and grabbed him and kissed him so ferociously. They continued to kiss until they were panting for air.
Draco looked into Harry's eyes and said "Love, I am ready. Please make love to me. I need to feel you." His eyes had a pleading look. Harry looked a bit shocked but nodded vigorously. "I love you, Harry." They kissed softly.
Harry pulled away. "I love you too Draco." He leaned towards the bedside table to get his wand and that's when Draco stopped him. Harry looked at him confused.
Draco mulled over his words. "I want to experience it the Muggle way. No magic. Just us. Please." Harry then opened the draw and got lube. He was about to reach for a condom but Draco shook his head. Harry smiled lovingly at Draco and nodded.
Harry looked at Draco and softly spoke. "Are you sure, Dray?"
Draco nodded. "Yes, love. I am more than ready. I trust you."
Harry smiled. "Okay. Let me know if I hurt you or want me to stop." Draco nodded once again. "Oh and just so you know this may hurt a bit. I need to prep you first." Draco looked at Harry eagerly. "Roll onto your stomach and get on your hands and knees while I prep you." Draco obeyed. Once he was on his hands and knees, Harry slathered his middle finger with lube. Draco watched him intently.
Harry watched Draco to see if he was ready and Draco said. "Please, love."
Slowly, Harry slid his middle finger into Draco. Harry moaned at the sensation and Draco hissed at the burn. "Relax, Dray. I'll take care of you." His finger bottomed out.
Draco looked at Harry. "You can move now. I need to feel you." Harry started moving his finger in and out causing Draco to moan. "Mo-or-re, please." Harry nodded and added his index finger. He continued to pump into Draco faster. Both were moaning so loudly. "Mo-or-re…" And Harry added his ring finger and hit Draco's sweet spot every time he plunged back in causing him to shout Harry's name.
Both were panting and moaning. "Potter, I need you to fuck me now." Harry pulled out his fingers and Draco stopped him. "I want to face you while you are inside me." Harry nodded, knowing he wouldn't be coherent if he spoke.
Draco turned over to face Harry. "I am ready. Take me, Potter." Harry lifted Draco's arse a bit and wrapped his fingers around Draco's erection and started to stroke him. When Draco started leaking Harry slathered himself with his juices and moved Draco's legs to his shoulders. He positioned himself right up against Draco's puckered hole. "Do it already, Potter." He said impatiently.
Harry slowly pushed himself inside of Draco until he bottomed out. Both needed a moment to catch their breaths before continuing. Draco nodded and Harry pulled out and pushed in a bit faster. Once Draco was acclimated to Harry's size completely, Harry started to stroke Draco's erection again. Draco begged him to go faster and so he did. Both were chanting each other's names.
Harry slowed down a bit because he wanted to savour the last moments of their first time. Draco looked a little irritated. "You said you wanted to make love, Dray. And this isn't it." He smirked.
Draco pulled Harry into an intense kiss as they made love. Harry sped a bit to Draco's surprise. "Love, do-on-n't stop." He whispered.
Harry looked at him. "Nev-ve-er, Dray." They gripped each other tighter and picked up the pace a bit more. Harry continued to hit Draco's sweet spot. "So cl-cl-ose, Dray." He could feel Draco tighten around him. Suddenly, Draco panted Harry's name as he came so hard all over their chests. Harry came just as hard inside Draco causing them to both moan. Harry was panting so fast trying to catch his breath. Once he got control, he slipped out of Draco and collapsed in a heap next to him.
Draco cuddled closer to Harry after he performed wandless magic to clean them. "Bloody hell, Potter. That was brilliant." He smirked at Harry.
Harry chuckled. "Bloody hell is right! Dray, I literally have no words for how I feel." He pulled Draco closer and kissed him softly. "I love you so much, Dray. More every day." He smiled.
Draco smirked. "Potter, speechless. That is something do not witness every day." Harry whacked him in arm. "Harry, I love you too. More every day as well." He kissed Harry softly. They cuddled even closer to each other.
Draco laid his head on Harry's chest. He listened to Harry's heartbeat. Slowly, he fell asleep wrapped in his lover's arms.
Hours later, Harry and Draco woke up. They were tangled up in each other's arms. Neither moved or looked away. Harry kissed Draco slowly and softly. When he stopped, Draco whined playful. "How do you feel, Dray?" He smiled.
Draco mulled over what to say. "I do not think one word covers how I feel. Incredible, loved, content and many more words and emotions. Never in my wildest dreams, I thought this sort of thing would happen for someone like me." He caressed Harry's cheek. "How about you, love?"
Harry leaned into Draco's touch. "You're right. There's no one word to describe how I feel right now." He smiled softly. "Dray, you deserve everything good in the world." He leaned in and kissed Draco's forehead. "I believe it with every fibre of my being." He then kissed the tip of Draco's nose, causing both to chuckle.
Draco laid his head once again on Harry's chest. "Let us rest some more. We deserve it." He smirked into his chest pillow. Harry nodded in agreement and kissed the top of Draco's head. They fell asleep together wrapped in each other's arms with soft smiles upon their faces.
