Notes: The title of the story comes from the song "Baby, You've Got What It Takes” which was on the Two Weeks’ Notice Soundtrack. I wrote it very last minute so it’s a bit rushed, but, I hope that the recipient enjoys the story as much as I enjoyed writing it. I want to thank my offline beta friend who is a true Drarry shipper but hasn’t created a LJ account to tag her. Thanks CB! I really like this movie and I did my best to adapt to it, although I haven’t seen it in a few years so it’s mostly from memory (and some google searches!). It's somewhat epilogue compliant. Harry's been married to Ginny and has three kids, however, Draco never married, no kids.
Summary: Harry is a spoiled brat with a powerful position in the Ministry. He’s been hired to ‘take care’ of Draco and the bad publicity his charitable foundations is causing for the bigwigs in the Ministry. Harry hires Draco to be his secretary as an incentive to become an inside man in the Ministry; however, he ends up using him a lot more as a Personal Assistant than a Ministry employee. Draco eventually gets frustrated and quits, and Harry gathers that he needs Draco more than he lead on.

That was wonderful. What a great adaptation from the movie. Kudos!

For all that Harry can be a prat, he's also charming and endearing. :) I loved it, had lots of fun reading it. Thank you.

This was such a great fic, darling. I really loved seeing Harry as the spoiled brat for a change. He was almost unlikable, which was great to see. I loved seeing him jealous too. And the sex was hot. Thank you so much for participating in the fest and writing such a great adaptation. ♥

[drarryisgreen]

Thanks, and thanks for all the help you provided me with. It was the first time I ever entered a fest and you were an awesome mod! ♥

It's a fun switch to have Harry be the cad and Draco be the man on a (charitable) mission. I loved Draco telling Harry off about how he is 'only' one man. You really highlighted what I love about Draco/Harry as a pairing: that Draco doesn't stand for Harry's shit. The feistiness between them was hot.

Aww! This was fun and cute! A very entertaining adaptation of the original! I love that for all that makes Harry a spoiled brat, he's also endearing and hot!

Also, have I mentioned that the sex scenes are hot? Well, they are. Sinfully so :D

[drarryisgreen]

Thanks so much! You were a fantastic mod! Thanks for all the encouragement! ♥

[appleling.livejournal.com]

You were plenty fantastic yourself!

[dragontara]

That was so sweet! It was refreshing to see Harry and Draco switching roles for a change, so that Draco was such a charitable person and Harry not so much. Very good adaptation of the movie.

[drarryisgreen]

Thanks a lot! ♥

I love that their roles were switched for this, it's so often the other way around and you did it so well. I'm so happy you did such a great job because I was waiting for this. It was excellent. Thank you!

[drarryisgreen]

I saw that you originally posted for claiming this prompt but it was never claimed, so I took it. Thanks for the compliment! ♥
