“I want to make you happy,” Draco told Harry. He paused then, reflecting on what he’d said. It was true, he realized. It was completely, unambiguously true. Draco Malfoy wanted to make Harry Potter happy. Was that love, he wondered? He should probably talk to his Mum. She’d know how to help him work this through.
“And I love you for it,” Harry answered, shyly. “So. I want to take this really slowly and carefully. With the press? They have a habit of ruining everything of mine that they can. That’s why I want to do this well, and intentionally.”

“What’s your idea?” Draco asked.
They sat. Their portkey wasn’t for 45 minutes and they were almost ready.
“I’ll say ‘I want everyone to know how happy I am, but my new boyfriend doesn’t want any negative publicity.’ The Prophet is sure to eat that up.”
Draco nodded.
“They’ll press me, for your name, for any details, but I’ll keep saying I’m afraid they’ll ruin things. Eventually, people will either stop caring, or they’ll all be so desperate to know who you are they won’t care about your past when they find out your name.”
“That… might work,” Draco said.
