I love On One's Knees (http://archiveofourown.org/works/192706?view_adult=true) by pir8fancier. It's a Draco-centered story, taking place after the war, where Draco is very much down on his luck, but is nevertheless a very strong character in this one, using his snark and sarcasm to try to put things in perspective. He then meets Harry, who is outraged at the things Draco tells him, how the Ministry treats the former Voldemort-allies and basically strips them of the possibilities to build up a life after the war, and starts to care for Draco more and more.
I adore this story, and I can highly recommend it. It's heart-wrenching, realistic and bleak, but the interaction between Harry and Draco is absolutely beautiful. Harry is that caring, hard-working person we know from the books, and Draco hasn't lost an inch of his snark, but because the story is told from Draco's POV, we also get a peek into his emotional life, which balances the outer snark out perfectly. The way their contact and later affair/ relationship develops is beautiful, and interchanged with the developments in the Wizarding World in the mean time. It's a long story but always completely sucks me in (as does all the writing of this author) and makes me devour it in one haul (actually, when I was scrolling through the story to check for the top/ bottom, I ended up reading large parts again because it's just that good).
Spoiler for top/ bottom Draco gets a blowjob from Harry, but Harry tops
