When Harry ends up seeing colored hazes around everyone and a pounding headache after a potions accident (that wasn't so much an accident), he worries that the war and attacks on him will never end. Draco and Harry have started a friendship in their eighth year after a long time of being at each other's throats, but things become strained as Harry worries about the effect of the potion and Draco seems to have found out who the culprit is. Draco struggles to balance his feelings towards Harry and his loyalty to those around him, and he finds himself having to make hard decisions when the two are pitted against each other. *cover image not mine, it belongs to alek.dar on Instagram* *I also do not own any of the characters in this story*
