Harry Potter hated Draco Malfoy. Except he really didn't. Harry and Draco were now eighth year students at Hogwarts and in a loving relationship. But don't ask Harry how it happened because he's sure he couldn't explain it. All anyone knew was that one day the hated each other and the next they were civil and a week later they were friends and then a month later they were a couple.
Harry Potter loved Draco Malfoy, actually. The thing he did hate was Christmas break. And also, he hated Draco's family. Yet, here he was, adjusting his tie (dark red with silver stripes) getting ready to have dinner with the Malfoy family on Christmas break anyway. He sighed, why can't Harry have anything near a normal life.
"Harry," Draco said coming to stand beside Harry, wrapping an arm around the brunette's waist," stop fidgeting. They dislike you as much as you dislike them but they have agreed to be civil because they love me and I love you."
"Way to remind me of their ever-growing dislike for me, Dray."
"Of course that's what you get out of that," Draco chuckles," the point is that I love you and they will try to be polite. But anyway I wouldn't call it 'ever-growing', between you and me I think you're wearing mother down."
Harry just nodded before turning to face his boyfriend. Harry knew he was right but was too proud to admit it, so he smiled weakly at Draco.
"Now, Harry that's no way to sway mother over. You're gonna have to do better than that," Draco said with a hint of humor and slight tilt at the corners of his pink lips.
Harry sighed," I know, and I'm sorry, Draco. I want them to at least tolerate me for your sake. And I know it's a far fetched idea but I want that for you. I love you, Dray, I just don't want to cause tension with you and your parents."
"Well you've been causing tension between my parents and I since first year, so a little late there," Harry rolled his eyes," but I appreciate what you're trying to do, love. Just be yourself but for all that is holy, do not mention politics!"
Harry laughed, hard, and at the joyful sound, Draco let a beautiful shy smile grace his features. Harry leaned in to peck a quick kiss on Draco's lips before he grabbed the blond's hand and walked out of the room.
Now Draco really laughed as he lead his crazy Harry into the dinning hall to meet the people who loved Draco almost as much as Harry did.
