“What answer do you want to give?” Harry said softly.
“I would prefer…” Draco inhaled deeply and clenched his fists for a moment against Harry’s back. Then he forcibly relaxed his own hands. “This is difficult.”
“Take your time.” Harry tipped his head up to kiss Draco’s jawline. “M’not going anywhere.”
“I have had little romance in my life,” Draco eventually murmured. “I would like to change that. But Mother… interferes. So does my history. Though I suppose if anyone could disregard my past, it would be you, hm?”
“What do you mean?” Harry said, his brow creasing with confusion.

“Only that no-one could claim dating me makes you some sort of Death Eater sympathizer.”
“Suppose not,” Harry said. He chuckled softly.
“Mother remains, however,” Draco said. He sighed. “I honestly do aspire to be her dutiful son. I also wish to live my own life and make my own fucking choices. She’s actively making those contradict, and it’s really starting to piss me off.”
“I sympathize,” Harry said, and he sounded so sincere. “But Draco…” he paused, and -- breathing -- Draco took the moment to marvel that (for now) he could hold a naked, happy Harry Potter in his arms.

“Yes, lovely?” Draco asked. He knew full well his smile had gone dopey, but decided -- he didn’t much care.
Whatever Harry was about to say might be difficult to hear, but nothing could take these last few days away from Draco. He was determined to be grateful.
So what if Harry wasn’t prepared to move any further into a romance with him? Draco understood. He was a convicted Death Eater, Mother was both homophobic and a terrible meddler, and -- mundane but relevant -- Draco worked ludicrously erratic hours running his mail order potions business nearly single-handed. He was hardly a catch.

“You’re twenty-seven years old,” Harry finally said. Shocked, Draco barked out a laugh.
“That is miles from where I thought you were going,” Draco admitted.
Harry turned in Draco’s arms to prop himself up on an elbow and more easily look Draco in the eye. “What did you expect?”
“For you to gently shoo me off,” Draco admitted. “I’m not an easy man for you to integrate into your life.” He was about to enumerate the thoughts he’d catalogued a moment before, but before he could, Harry laughed and kissed him again. “Easy is overrated,” he said, and he smiled.
