Contains (Highlight to view): Brace Yourself: *Hogwarts!AU. There is no second wizarding war. Harry's parents died in the process of successfully defeating Voldemort. Sirius lives. Snape lives. Remus lives. Original characters. Timeline slightly divergent from canon [I said, AU, right?] Mild violence mentioned. Stalkery boys being stalkery. Some crying. Made up rules about Transfiguration. Slightly non-linear timeline. Mention of underage sex. Mention of Harry's promiscuity. Sex in semi-public place. Denial. Pining.*

Notes: All the thanks to my betas for putting up with this ridiculous story. Also, though the story and the title focus on Draco's life, it's almost entirely told by Harry's point of view. Dear Prompter, I hope you like what I did with your request and I tried to stay as true to it as much as it was possible.
Summary: At the age of seventeen, Harry finds himself falling in love with a detached Draco Malfoy. Through a series of unfortunate miscommunications and gossip, he had a bad falling out (of love), too. Now, years later, can Harry make amends about a misunderstanding? Would Draco forgive him?

I loved this AU! :D It was so much fun seeing Harry like this. I imagine this is how Harry had been if raised by Sirius.

"Do what your heart tells you and don't give an arse about what others think."

That sounds so much like Sirius is not even funny! :D Also good advise, though yeah, it wouldn't work with this Draco.

I loved that scene when Harry was trying to flirt with Theo and all of the sudden he loses his ~fight~ and he's all adorable asking for advise. :)

I loved how sweet their courtship was. Call me crazy but, Harry's started to get bolder with Draco when they are alone. Placing his arm around Draco's waist, pulling him closer, kissing his neck.

I found that incredibly sexy. The idea they haven't gone beyond holding hands and yet Harry doing something so intimate as kiss his neck. *melts*

I knew a misunderstanding was coming though. :( but it fits so much with Draco, because, I reckon he was afraid to be hurt or used. Totally worth it seeing them together after all that time, so much sure of themselves, you know?

Wonderful, lovely ending. Thank you, mystery author! <33
