An 8th year Drarry fic where Harry barely speaks anymore, but Draco doesn't need words to understand him.
After spending the summer together and beginning their relationship, it's time for Harry and Draco to transition back to Hogwarts. Both men know continuing their relationship isn't going to be easy, but nothing good ever is.
Can they keep their relationship hidden from not only their friends, but the wizarding world as a whole until they're ready to come out? Can they, along with their friends, end house prejudices for good, and finally unite Hogwarts?
Sequel to my story Ghosts, but my goal is that this can be read as a stand alone book. You'll just miss Harry and Draco becoming friends, as well as the start of their relationship.

Late Night Talking
"Things haven't been quite the same There's a haze on the horizon, babe It's only been a couple of days and I miss you" Potionsmaster Draco Malfoy swore after the war he would never return to England after fleeing to France for a fresh start. Cue Auror Harry Potter quite literally upending Draco and his life once again as Harry's work takes him out of the country and drops him violently back into Draco's life. Tentative talks lead to something more, and the late night talks bring them together as the distance and stress of Harry's job works to push them apart. * fanart credits for the cover to tumblr artist fae-voritensfw * Started: January 16, 2023 Completed: February 4, 2023Complete

Behind Enemy Lines (D.M.)
The space between us disappeared. "Scared of what he'll say?" His hot breath was vexing, in both agony and tone. My eyes narrowed at his assumptions that I cared enough. "Aren't you scared of what I'll do?" My eyes casted down to the wand he didn't see slide up. It was pointed at the firm hand on my throat. "You've always underestimated me, Malfoy." Each word dripped like honey, causing his smirk to twist. A cat and mouse stuck in tormenting circles. His gaze dropped to my lips, a heat igniting in the silence between us. - Where there is smoke: there's fire. The same smokey eyes that watched her too closely all these years. Lillian Petunia Potter, named after her mother, had to fly under the radar and hide in the shadows while her infamous twin brother basked in the hero limelight. She played too close with fire and got herself burned one too many times. Will Malfoy cause her life to go up in flames? Will she freely jump into them if it means risking it all? *** This fan fiction will be loosely following the plot. For the sake of everyone, the plot spans over a couple of year.

Written on the Heart [drarry]
Harry doesn't mind that so many Slytherins from his year have returned to finish their NEWTs, really he doesn't. It's just - do they have to be so friendly? He's not prejudiced, really he's not. It's just - they've got to be up to something, right? Unnerved by the attention he's attracting from everyone - the Slytherins are the least of it, to be fair - and struggling with a raft of changes to Hogwarts itself, Harry wishes he could be happy that one constant remains: Draco Malfoy really fucking hates him. When he's hit by an illegal love-spell though, Harry finds he has more to worry about than whether or not Blaise Zabini actually wants to be his friend. For if everyone affected has been blessed - or cursed, by the look on Malfoy's face - with a magical tattoo revealing the name of their soulmate, what does it mean that Harry's skin remains completely bare?

Piece of Your Heart ✔️
Harry will do anything for the ones he loves. When Draco finally shows the good that Harry knew was hidden underneath, he makes it his new life purpose to be sure his former enemy doesn't fall back into his old ways, even if it means major discomfort for both men. With Draco sentenced to house arrest with community service, his mother paying her debt in another county, and his father in Azkaban, here's the start of tentative post-war friendship and maybe more between Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy.

"Yeah, um, I..." But the lingering effects of Felix wouldn't let me lie. "I do. I really like you." "Not platonically, then." "Not platonically." "Well, that's lucky." He said. "Because I think I really like you too, Draco Malfoy." "If this is a joke," I began, not believing my ears, "then get lost and I never want to talk to you again. If it-" "It's not a j-" "Let me finish, Potter. If it's not a joke, then shut up and kiss me already and stop stalling." -------------------------- Draco and Harry are back for an eighth year of Hogwarts to finish their NEWTs.

Ghosts ✔️
A postwar fic where Harry barely speaks anymore, and no one understands him the way Draco Malfoy does. One apologetic letter written by Draco will change the course of both of their lives. Mentions themes such as PTSD, trauma, and depression. Read with caution, but this will be a lighthearted fic for the most part. Mentions of modern day elements you've been warned!

Let Me Love You // DRARRY
Harry was returning to Hogwarts alone, Hermione being recognised as a crucial player in the Ministry's efforts of returning the wizarding world to its former Glory. Ron, feeling like Hogwarts held to many soured memories to ever be a home again. When Harry manages to involve himself with dark people with darker intentions the last remaining façade of normality slips away. Without his two closest friends to aid him on a journey of recovery, it seems like the next best answer will be with the reformed Malfoy. And of Harry is being perfectly honest he doesn't bloody care. -DISCLAIMER- I do not own any of the original characters from the Harry Potter franchise, Book or Movie.

Harry Potter and The Boy Who Had No Choice
"Face it Malfoy, you're a bloody coward." Harry's smile was gone, replaced by a menacing scowl. While he was talking, he had made his way back to Malfoy, who was now standing in front of him, seething with anger. "I. Am. Not. A. Coward," Malfoy said darkly with gritted teeth. His knuckles were turning white as he clenched his fists. "Prove it," Harry snapped, glaring into irises of stormy silver. Cover by: @D4y_Dr3am (their art is amazing!!)Complete

Love Thy Enemy// Drarry
"It's one of the commandments after all Harry, love thy enemy." "I'm pretty sure that's not one of the commandments Ginny." "Oh whatever, he knows what I mean." ---- One final year at Hogwarts. That's all that stands in the way between Harry Potter and the rest of his life. Except, he's not even sure what he wants to do with the rest of his life. Hell, he hadn't even expected to live this long if he was being honest. But here he was, alive and well and completely unsure of himself. Everyone keeps telling him that he can relax now, have a normal life, but normal flew out the window the day he learned he was a wizard. Voldemort is gone, (for good this time) and Harry is struggling with his purpose, his fate, his future. The one thing that Harry thought he could count on, the one thing Harry actually considered a part of his normal life, was the constant arguments, high tensions, and general teasing that Draco Malfoy would inflict upon him. But even that's changed. Draco Malfoy is different. He's quiet, reserved. Harry's not sure what to make of the new Draco and when they're paired up as partners in potions, Harry is anything but excited. But as the two enemies talk, as they get to know one another, their relationship takes a turn. A turn that neither of them could have expected.
