Flash Forward
"You haven't been dating," Draco comments, laying his head in Harry's lap and putting his feet up on the arm of the sofa. "Will you play with my hair? I'm getting a headache."
Harry sets his drink aside and complies, Draco's eyes closing in contentment as his fingers start to run through his hair, easing the pain slightly.
"Yeah, I guess I just..." Harry sighs. "I'm so busy now, I haven't been interested in looking for anything...it's just easier this way, isn't it?"
"I suppose."
"What about you?" Harry asks. "Have you...?"
Draco thinks about Paul, with his dark hair, just starting to go grey at the temples, and striking blue eyes. He's...nice. Another safe choice.
"Yes."
"Oh yeah?" Harry gives him a smile, hands still sliding smoothly through Draco's hair, one finger running across his forehead, his magic soothing the headache instantly. The absent-minded show of power sends a thrill down Draco's spine that he desperately tries to hide.
"What's his name?" Harry asks.
"Paul."
