harry and draco have always been rivals. that's just the way things were. were. past tense. everything is different now. the war is over but harry is broken. he has been broken so many times that he cannot begin to place back together his shattered pieces. he is a mess of torn photographs, faded and drained of color. he isn't sure how to escape the nightmares that have become his reality, dreams that are simply memories of times he has refused to think of, to dwell on. but somehow, when he's with draco, he feels everything he's refused to feel. draco, who he has hated all his life. draco, who has always hated him. draco, who is broken too. he never expected to find solace in the boy he was sure he'd never call his friend. but in him, he was finding so much more than he'd ever imagined. lowercase intended ☆2nd Place Winner in the 2020 Harry Potter Fanfic Awards for the Golden Trio Era ☆
