tw: self harm and mention of a possible eating disorder

draco still remembers the exact moment he accepted the fact that he was in love with harry potter. it was the third of december and the two boys were in harry's room doing their homework. the two had been best friends for as long as they could remember and doing their homework together was a common occurrence. the room was cold as it was the middle of winter and the heating had broken. draco shivered slightly, goosebumps raising on his slender arm. harry had looked over at him and wordlessly got up and handed draco his favourite sweater. it was a deep red, half zip sweater. it had quite a vintage feel to it and harry adored it.

draco took the sweater from harry and slipped it over his head. draco was taller than harry but the sweater fit perfectly as harry had purposely bought it to be oversized on him.

"thank you." draco had said.

"it looks better on you than it does me." harry had said, while smiling fondly at draco.

draco snuggled into the soft material and inhaled the scent of cinnamon and pine. draco had looked back over at harry who was humming a tune and smiling softly to himself. and that was when draco realised he was in love with harry potter.

only if you knew how much i liked you, was the final thought draco had as the two parted ways on the night of the third of december.

the final thought draco had on the third of december still lingered in his mind a week later as the pair walked to their lockers. the atmosphere in their high school was slightly different, there seemed to be more excitement in the air and that was probably due to the fact that a big family had recently moved to the area.

"have you run into any of the new kids yet?" draco asked, as he punched in his locker combination.

"yeah. one of them sat next to me in english. his name was ron, he seemed nice and we got along." harry said, leaning against the lockers, waiting for draco to get everything he needed. the two always ate lunch together, and therefore, always waited for each other. "y'know, the family is a lot bigger than i thought. ron told me that he has six siblings but only him and three others are at this school. he said he had twin brothers who are older and a younger sister."

"hm, i had maths with the twins." draco said. he was very smart and was in higher classes for some subjects. "they were very loud but they seemed nice. i would peg them for the class clown type because..."

draco trailed off when he realised harry wasn't paying attention to him anymore. he looked up, confused, and followed harry's eyes and what he saw made his heart crack slightly.

her.

one of the new students. she was... beautiful. she had long, shiny, auburn hair and deep hazel eyes. her face was covered by a splattering of freckles and she had an air of confidence around her. draco watched as she walked by, what a sight for sore eyes. she seemed to be brighter than a blue sky. draco looked back up at harry, his eyes were opened slightly wider than usual and his mouth had formed a small 'o' shape. draco knew that she had harry mesmerised and draco felt himself die a little inside.

draco saw harry shake himself out of the trance he was in and he quickly turned back to his locker and desperately tried to push the lump that sat in his throat away.

"sorry, what were you saying?" harry asked.

"oh. uh, nothing. it wasn't important." draco replied, quietly.

"are you sure?" harry asked, suspiciously. he always had a way of knowing exactly how draco felt.

"yeah, yeah. i'm sure."
