"FUCK SAKE!" Y/N stumbles out of their room. They'd been so exhausted they'd practically slept through their day off, and now were late for their early shift. They got into the clothes and grabbed their bag locking up quickly. They dashed down the steps and onto the street sprinting. Wind hit their face and they ignored the pounding in their chest. They refused to be late, especially after taking a day off.
Due to their lack of attention in that moment they ran straight into someone and went to fall. The person grabbed their wrist before Y/N could fall to the ground. "Shit shit I'm so sorry." Y/N said regaining their balance. The man chuckled "it's alright what's with the rush?" He was dressed in a suit, and he was taller then Y/N, but still not incredibly tall. His smile was familiar and wide and his eyes were en emerald green hidden behind a pair of wonky glasses. A scar spread across his forehead that brought a grin to Y/N's mouth "Well well Harry Potter."
"Sorry do I know you?"
"Y/N Y/L/N."
"Fuck me you look great, I thought you were dead to be honest." Harry tilted his head. Y/N's lips tightened slightly "I got lucky." They shrugged beginning to walk. Harry walked along side them. He looked less scrawny and ill then he used to in Hogwarts, his face had more colour, but you could still see the war in his eyes.

"So um what's been going on with you lately?" Y/N asked breaking the silence. Harry sighed "Well I'm an auror now as you've probably heard, and Ginny and I have three kids."
"Is that so? Never pictured you as the fatherly type."
"Me either, but Ginny wanted kids and I love her, and I mean when you love someone like that you open your mind, and well I love my kids." They smiled at him "You've gone soft Potter." Harry ruffled his hair. "Says you, I see that St Mungo's uniform, you'd have never dreamed of a carer type profession in Hogwarts. Knowing you you'd have said it was for the weak."
Y/N chuckled "people change."
"Aye they do..." Harry sighed as the pair approached the St Mungo's entrance "I suppose this is where I leave you now." He dug around his pocket and with a charming smile handed them a business card. "Call me if you ever need anything." He turned and walked off. Y/N stood there watching him with a small smile. Shame he's married. He got quite fit.

"Was that Potter?" A bitter voice snarled causing Y/N to recoil slightly slipping the business card into their pocket. "Good morning to you too Healer Malfoy." Y/N sighed not even facing the blonde before turning and walking inside of the hospital. They headed to grab their chart for the day and place their things in the locker. "What did Potter want?"
"We were just catching up Malfoy." Y/N said leaning against the lockers to read their clipboard with a sort of nonchalance that made Draco twitch with childish jealousy. He spotted the business card immediately "He gave you his number?"
"Yeah we were friends who lost touch, why wouldn't he?"
"Um cause he's got a wife and kids."
"Oh Jesus Malfoy he gave me his business card for emergencies, he didn't ask me to suck him off or sleep with him. Catch yourself on." Y/N rolled their eyes. Draco went to protest but chewed on his tongue and just walked out of the room. Was that about the fact it was Potter or because it was with Y/N? He didn't know and quite frankly he didn't want to find out.
