“It may be news to you,” Harry said quietly, nuzzling Draco’s ear with his nose, “that I’ve had a more than a few chances to tell the world to take that very leap.”

Draco leaned in close, resting his cheek against Harry’s shoulder as though it belonged there. Perhaps it did, as Harry didn’t seem inclined to push him away. He laughed a little, anyway.

“Not exactly surprising, no,” he said, and toyed a bit with Harry’s belt. He could seduce Harry now, he thought, but that would be changing the subject, and he wasn’t quite ready for that, yet.

“So what I’m trying to say,” Harry said, still very quiet, still holding Draco close, “is I’ve had a bit of practice with ignoring popular opinion in order to make my own choices, live my best life.”

“Oh?” Draco said, pretending he needed more explanation. He understood Harry’s implication, but wanted the reassurance. (Forgive him the weakness. He’d had a rough day.)

“Yes,” Harry said, his voice close and quiet, but firm and sure. “I don’t care what your Mum thinks, or the newspapers, or even potential clients. I want to try this, with you. I want it very much.”

Yey :) While I still hope that Narcissa gets her act together, I am glad that Harry is so assuring to Draco. He needs to be loved and fought for.

Harry has a habit of not holding back, and this is the perfect time. :)

Mm, to them, too!
