The war was finally over and all Harry felt was relieved. He had spent his entire life fighting Voldemort. Now maybe he and Draco could live a normal (ish) life.
"Potter you complete buffoon, letting me think you were dead!" Speak of the devil.  Harry thought as Malfoy ran towards him.
"Got to keep you on your toes."
"Hey your the one who has to reach to kiss me"
"Thanks for not going to Voldemort" Harry said leaning into Malfoy.
"I will never leave you Potter" They stood there resting for the first time in forever.

Hermione was standing with the Weasleys when Harry found her. Which wasn't too hard considering she was surrounded by a group of flaming red heads. Fred. This was a wake up call for Harry, even though the battle was won it was not over. He was welcomed into the group to morn along side them. The fact that they stood by him after all this time amazed him. Every year he had done something to mess up their life and every year they treated him like a son.
Harry spent hours into the night comforting the living and mourning the dead. Until at about 1 a.m a cold hand touched his shoulder.
"Harry you need sleep." Harry looked around at the line of cots.
"But..."
"No buts you need sleep" Harry still didn't look convinced, "Harry you can't bring back the dead" He looked around defeated by everything.
"Okay"

The next few week everyone busied themselves with the clean up of Hogwarts. Until Mogonagal sorry if that's spelled wrong insisted that all students go home.
"That includes you Mr. Potter" despite Harry's continuos protesting he eventually boarded the train back to London. He sat next to Ron and Hermione preparing himself  to talk to them.
"So t-there's something I n-need to tell you... Uhh... I think I like Draco Malfoy..."
"So you say?" said Ron
"Oh shut up." Ron just laughed.
Now it was time for the painful part. Ginny. After he had returned to Hogwarts Ginny had leapt at him. He had well pushed her away. He had realized that he was gay (well if he was being honest he had known it for a while) but mostly he had realized he didn't love Ginny that way. Like a sister? Yes. But like Draco? No.
Harry knocked on the glass of Ginny's compartment window.
"Can I talk to you alone?" He asked.
"Sure" they found an empty compartment and closed the door.
"Ginny there's something I need to tell you. I feel really bad about not telling you sooner and it isn't fair to you.       W-well you see the thing is I-I'm gay." As he said this he winced and looked up from the ground to see Ginny's reaction. It was blank. "And well you see" he continued "I like Draco Malfoy" Ginny stormed out the door.
