It was supposed to be a harmless bet. Until Draco stopped pretending he was fine. Now Harry can't look away, not when the boy he thought he hated looks like he's about to break. Maybe this year, surviving Hogwarts means learning how to save each other. ---------------------------- First ever story and English is not my first language. So I apologise for all the mistakes. This book contains mature themes like TW: mention of eating disorder mention of suicide mention of self-harm And the cover is not from me I just found it on Pinterest so yeah credit to who ever made this cover. And none of the characters belong to me. Just the story plot belongs to me. (DISCONTINUED)

After quitting the Auror department at the ripe old age of twenty two, Harry Potter finds a nice, uneventful job in an apothecary. At least, it's uneventful until his old rival Draco Malfoy comes into the shop. They strike up an unlikely friendship, which evolves into an increasingly convoluted scheme, which then snowballs spectacularly out of control into a tangle of lies and blurred lines. They'd agreed to a fake relationship ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ̶ in Harry's case, to get the wizarding world to take him off his 'perfect saviour' pedestal, and in Draco's case, just to be given a chance in wizarding society at all ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ̶ but neither of them expected just how difficult that might really turn out to be. Especially when the stakes grow ever higher, and they both start falling for each other. Just a little bit. ______________________________________________ •Written March 2017 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ̶ May 2020• [Complete, 52k words] The first 5 chapters were beta'd back in early 2018 by @ItsATwix, @SimonTheVampir, & @drarryislifeforme; the first 7 in autumn 2019 by my friend @CoraWritesThings.
