HP drabble: Warp and Woof [Draco/Harry, general]
Title: Warp and Woof Author: celandineb Fandom: HP Pairing: Harry/Draco Rating: general Warnings: character death Summary: Past loves and present are woven together in Harry's mind. Note: Written for the "Comfort" challenge at hd100.
The quilt wrapped around Harry was warm, but brought him no comfort. It was ridiculous to think that if he hadn't left Ginny, she might still be alive; she was in her nineties, for Merlin's sake, and as she'd been killed by the chimaera she was photographing, it wasn't as if she hadn't lived the life she wanted.
Nevertheless "what-ifs" and "if-onlys" tumbled through his mind until Draco came, bones creaking as he lowered himself to the sofa and silently embraced Harry. Harry looked at him, every wrinkle and white hair so familiar and dear, and felt his burdens lighten.
