Despite how they had just been all over each other, Draco still couldn’t help but smile at the confirmation, noticing the grin pulling at Harry’s lips and how he just seemed thrilled at the prospect. It wasn’t that Draco hadn’t felt desired before, yet this still felt entirely different.
Deciding that tonight was not the time to start thinking straight, Draco killed his cigarette in the ashtray on the table.
“Good,” he said, finding the entire situation so very silly, but that didn’t stop him from moving back in close to Harry, taking a brief second to make sure they weren’t standing so they could be seen from the windows, more muscle memory than genuine fear, and leaned in to kiss him.

Given how they had all but fallen into each other early, this was an entirely different experience. Having stated his intent of kissing Harry, it felt like space stretched into eternity while Draco put out his cigarette.
Harry watched him move with great attention, anticipation pulling at the corners of his lips as Draco moved back into his space.
This really was going to make a mess of things, Harry realised as he tipped his chin upwards. While Harry had kissed his friends before, he was becoming increasingly aware of the fact that he and Draco weren’t really friends, not in a way where this would fill everything between them.
It was so hard to care the moment Draco kissed him.
Desperately trying to stay aware of what Draco had asked of him, Harry placed a gentle hand on Draco’s hip, leaning into him to reciprocate the kiss.

The kiss was vastly different from the former ones that they had shared, both of them painfully aware of the fact that this wouldn’t be more than just this kiss. In a way, it made Draco even more keen, thrilled to experience that Harry didn’t push, instead respecting the boundary that Draco so tentatively had put in place.
Despite having known that he was gay ever since he first started experiencing attraction, this was really the first time Draco felt comfortable with his attraction towards another man. Maybe it was the drinks that were still swirling in his system, or maybe it was just because Harry was different from anyone he had ever met before, but Draco, for the first time in his life, almost felt that it was okay for him to have these feelings.
It was difficult for him to remember his own boundary as he gingerly cupped Harry’s jaw, wanting to drag out the kiss just a little longer.

The feeling of Draco’s hand curling around his jaw made a shiver run down Harry’s spine, making his hand involuntarily flex against Draco’s hip. It felt dangerously easy to just give in when he felt Draco relax into him, too easy to return to the state of mind he had been in when they had just left the bar.
Making a conscious decision to listen to Draco, Harry relaxed his posture enough to gently break the kiss despite trying to stay close enough to remain in the embrace, just for another moment.

Despite knowing that it was probably for the better, Draco couldn’t help feeling a pang of loss when Harry withdrew from the kiss. He knew that moving towards something more than just this was probably going to be a bad idea, both of them having had too many drinks and too much adrenaline in their systems to make properly thought out decisions, but it was difficult not to want it.
“Thank you, Harry,” he said with a warm smile, feeling so grateful for everything that Harry had done for him that night. Unable to help himself, he leant back in and kissed Harry’s forehead, knowing that it was a silly thing, but he truly knew no other way to express his gratitude.
“We should get some sleep.”

Draco kissing his forehead was the most intimate kiss they had shared yet, making Harry blink. It took a conscious decision not to stretch into it, or to recapture Draco’s lips in a kiss, leaving a long moment where Harry simply stared at Draco, trying to regain his footing.
“Yeah, alright,” he replied as if in a daze.
Forcing himself away from Draco, Harry, too, stepped aside towards the table, putting out the cigarette almost entirely untouched, suddenly having lost any interest in that taste.

Draco hadn’t actually been sure what to expect from the morning after the most chaotic night of his life.
He and Harry and left off on good terms and with somewhat clear lines of what was going on between them, even if the implications of it all still made Draco’s head spin.
However, he was finding it surprisingly easy to sit in the kitchen with Harry, Sirius and Remus and eat breakfast. Maybe it was just the coffee that was helping him feel like himself again, but despite sitting next to Harry he felt absolutely no lingering awkwardness between them, something that filled his heart with relief.
“So what did actually happen yesterday?” Sirius asked before taking a sip from his tea, finding himself curious as to what exactly had went down.

Despite not having had that many drinks, Harry had woken up feeling hungover from everything else that had gone on. Harry’s centre of gravity still felt a little askew, leaning slightly to the left towards Draco as they sat side by side at the table; he was, however, determined not to linger at the thought of him like that.
At Sirius’ question, Harry looked over at Draco, wondering if he wanted to have a go of answering. For what it was worth, there were probably a few large pockets of time from last night they would not be sharing with Sirius and Remus.
“We, uh, went out for drinks to meet the guys,” Harry started from the very beginning.

It wasn’t that the request for elaboration really came as a surprise to Draco, but he still felt woefully unprepared to actually answer it. Despite having tried to piece it all together, he found that he had more or less forgotten about the earliest parts of his evenings, instead having his brain refuse to move away from the latter parts.
Harry had been perfectly courteous all morning, no lingering sense of awkwardness remaining between them, much to Draco’s relief, but he found that he still really didn’t want to discuss those particular parts of their night with Harry’s fathers.
“Well, yeah,” Draco stated, taking a sip from his coffee as he tried to work out the narrative in his own head as well. “Harry invited me to join them because he came here to drop off his bag and found me upset here, as I had just broken up with Peter earlier.”

Continuing to eat his breakfast, leaned forward for the plate to catch any stray crumbs, Harry only intermittently looked over at Draco as he spoke. By any accounts, it would be easiest for Draco to narrate the evening, more in control of which details he wanted aired.

“I’m sorry to hear that,” Remus chimed, a soft furrow between his brows. This exactly had been a detail the boys had barely lingered on last night, and part of what had worried him and Sirius upon going to bed last night. “Do you want to talk about what happened between you two?”
His attention fully on Draco, Remus failed to notice the startled glance Harry sent him. “You said he spoke to the press?”

Draco sighed at the question, though it was sweet and well meaning, he could barely wrap his head around what had happened himself, however, he by now knew this to be a safe space and figured that maybe it would be good to talk it out with someone he could trust.
“It was the dumbest thing really,” he stated, taking a sip from his coffee as he started to mentally go through his lunch with Peter. The worst part was that he knew the exact moment everything went wrong and yet Draco couldn’t see any other way it could have ever gone down.
“We were out for lunch and he was talking about everything and nothing,” he explained, looking down into his coffee as he spoke, not sure he would be able to actually divulge everything that had happened if he actually had to look at the men at the table with him.
“I won’t get into too much detail, but he started talking about engagement and about how the photographer from ‘last time’ would be perfect for that.”

Though Harry was the only one at the table who had already heard this part in detail, even those which Draco omitted on the retelling, it was still rough to hear.
Properly looking over at Draco, Harry’s sympathy expressed itself with a frown, a small confirmation that, even sobered up, he believed he was in the right to have punched Peter for the way he had handled himself.
“That’s awful, kid,” Remus replied. “And then he saw you while you were out?”

While Draco had found that living through it the night before had been pretty awful, he almost found that telling the entire thing to the sympathetic faces of Remus and Sirius even worse. More than anything, Draco just wanted to forget everything about ever having dated Peter, but the men had done so much for him, so he felt that they deserved to know.
“Yeah, he found us when we were out smoking,” he said, feeling so awkward about having caused such a fuss. “He begged me to take him back but didn’t really apologise so I kept refusing. Peter said some rather harsh things, so Harry punched him.”

Harry could tell from Remus’ expression that he was still coming to terms with the fact Harry had done that, especially when drinking. Trying to find some more sympathy, Harry’s eyes flickered to Sirius.
“I’m not sorry,” he said, a little disjointed to Draco’s story, but trying to pre-emptively address a complaint he knew was coming.
Looking over at Draco, Harry only really looked for approval in Draco’s expression, finding that his opinion mattered more than his fathers’, and recognizing that Draco’s opinion of Harry’s actions might’ve changed throughout the night. “He was being a real arse to you.”

It wasn’t exactly that Sirius was proud of Harry for having punched someone in the face, no matter how much he had disliked Peter when he had come to visit. However, he also knew that he and Remus had raised a sensible young man who wouldn’t just punch someone in the face unless he had ample reason.
Furthermore, he saw the look of gratitude that Draco was sending him, and he could understand why Harry had done what he had done.
“While I normally don’t condone violence, I can’t say that I am not grateful for Harry’s interference,” Draco stated with a warm smile, wanting Harry to know that he was still greatly appreciating what he had done for him.
“I really don’t want to repeat what he actually said, but let me just say that it was very ugly.”

When Draco met his eye, Harry could tell somewhere deep in his chest that it had been mere hours since they kissed. It brought an unsteady little smile to his lips, allowing himself to actually look at Draco for the first time today.
There was a great relief in knowing Draco’s opinion of Harry hadn’t changed over the course of the night, but it left little room to expect Draco to have changed his mind about everything else that had happened, too.
Harry was mercifully pulled out of his reverie by the snap of the front door latch unlocking, somewhere above them.
“Lads, are any of you home?” Tonks called out into the foyer. “I desperately need a sitter.”

“In the kitchen,” Sirius bellowed, having not expected Tonks but also knowing her better than to expect any kind of call beforehand. He didn’t mind it though, happy to help her out when need be, especially if it meant watching Teddy for a bit.
Draco, on the other hand, had been so caught up in recounting his story from the day before that the sudden yelling took him quite aback. He knew Sirius and Remus’ household to be an open one, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise to him that it was also the type of place where people just let themselves in.
However, it still took him by surprise when a woman and a toddler, both with brightly coloured hair, came bounding down the stairs.

Tonks was carrying Teddy on her hip as she all but tumbled down the stairs, Teddy’s bag dangling at her elbow. “They moved up my interviews, and Ma’s not home until lunch -”
Having had her attention downturned towards the steps, it was only upon landing on the kitchen floor that she raised her eyes; the sight that met her caught her completely unprepared, stalling her in place.
“No way,” she said. She glanced over at Sirius with surprise, looking for some sort of either recognition validation, before her attention returned onto the blonde man at the dinner table. “You’re Draco, right? You must be. ”

There was nothing that could have prepared Draco the woman in front of him, much less her knowing his name.
It took her standing directly next to Sirius for Draco to see the family resemblance, but that still didn’t really give him a clue as to who she actually was.
Luckily, Sirius seemed to see his confusion, and with a warm smile he made his introductions.
“Draco, this is Dora and Teddy,” he said, already knowing that his niece would probably not think to do so. “She is your cousin, actually, her mum is your mum’s sister.”

Almost without looking, Tonks let Teddy slink off her arm and down onto Sirius’ lap, her attention entirely on Draco. Having grown up with no contact to the rest of her mother’s family, it was the weirdest thing to see someone who looked so much like her.
“She did tell me about you -” she started, but her voice trailed off, unsure what to even say to a stranger, who still immediately managed to feel like family. “Oh, I’m so happy to meet you. Can I give you a hug?”
