Tight Quarters by @maraudersaffair

2,488 | Completed | E | Abraxas Malfoy/Tom Riddle

Tom grabbed his hand and dragged him to the door. A moment later, they were racing down the corridor. Abraxas laughed, gasping breathlessly. It was very loud. “Hush,” Tom said, still holding his hand. They turned another corner and raced down a second corridor. Tom had no idea where he was leading them. “We can’t go back to the common room,” Abraxas said. “Not like this.” There were a million hidden places in the castle. If Tom had his choice, he would drag Abraxas all the way to the Forbidden Forest. I could kill him there, Tom thought. I could kill him and hide his body amongst the dark trees … They were delirious thoughts. Ridiculous thoughts. There was no way Tom could kill Abraxas Malfoy and get away with it. Abraxas was no Myrtle Warren.

Summary:

Harry and Ginny are married, but she abandoned him for her Quidditch career overseas. He is lonely and desperate for love and very interested in sleeping with a man.

Then, one night at a party, Draco Malfoy whispers in his ear: Do you want to leave with me?

Harry knows he should say no, especially since a scandal would ruin his chance at becoming Head Auror, but Malfoy is entirely too fit to pass up the opportunity.

(੭ˊ͈ ꒵ˋ͈)੭*⁺˚. * ･ ｡ﾟ☆

Excerpt:

“Where’s your wife?”

“In Brazil.”

“Still, Potter? Hasn’t she been gone for ages?”

Harry shrugged. “What’s it to you?”

Malfoy licked his lips. They were pink and thin but not chapped. In fact they looked quite soft. Harry stared for entirely too long, lost in his own thoughts.

“Do you want to get out of here?”

“What?”

Malfoy looked him straight in the eyes. “Do you want to leave with me?”

Harry shuddered. It almost sounded as if Malfoy was propositioning him. “Um. Err. What about Hermione?”

“The party is over, Potter. I’m sure Granger’s about two seconds away from plunging face-first into her gigantic glass of wine.”

“Well …”

Malfoy was still looking at him, not shying away. He seemed determined. “Let’s get out of here. Come on.” He grabbed Harry’s hand.

A few minutes later, they stood in Malfoy’s flat overlooking the Thames. The city glittered below them.

“Would you like a drink?” Malfoy asked, shadows overtaking him.

“Yes.”

Malfoy made them refreshing brambles with blackberry liqueur. Harry was halfway through his drink before he finally took a seat. The settee was very posh. Malfoy joined him, sitting entirely too close.

It took a second bramble for Harry to slur, “I thought you were fucking Hermione.”

Malfoy’s eyes were dark and his cheeks were pink. He threw his blond head back and laughed. “No, you idiot. I don’t like fanny.”

This made Harry frown. “What’s there not to like?”

Malfoy frowned too as he chewed on a bit of crushed ice. “It’s all right, I suppose, but there are other things I like far more.”

“Like what?”

Then Malfoy set aside his drink and took Harry’s face in his hands.

“What are you doing?” Harry asked, head spinning.

“This.” Malfoy kissed him.

Harry wished he could say he was shocked, but he wasn’t. Malfoy hadn’t asked him for a drink, not really. He had asked him if he was willing to cheat on his wife while she was in Brazil.

“I’ve never done this before,” Harry gasped as Malfoy opened his mouth on his neck.

“Don’t worry, I’ll show you everything,” Malfoy said, his hand now between Harry’s legs, squeezing. “Everything.”

Been looking for this one for a few months. It’s a Christmas fic and Draco and Scorpius are really poor or homeless and Harry runs a charity. He bumps into them on the street accidentally and after hearing their story tries to find them shelter with his charity but it’s full so he takes them home. A relationship does happen eventually and a marriage proposal and they buy scorpius a puppy.

That library scene with Harry’s headache | Brief Encounter by maraudersaffair

This part right here, and the entirety of the story destroyed me in every possible way. All those unspoken words and in-betweens, oh dear. Also, utterly glad to find kbrick’s post because they’ve nailed all the words I wanted to say about it. Dear @emsuemsu, you weren’t kidding about the hinny/ drarry dynamics here. And the last part. Devastating.

"Hello," a slightly high-pitched male voice said. Severus choked back a gasp, released the bowl and stumbled backwards, his long black hair falling over his face. "Ow." The eyes darted left and right around the bowl's lips. "Why did you drop me? That hurt." Severus pointed his wand, "You teenage imbeciles have gone too far!" “Hey, why are you shouting and pointing that stick at me?” The bowl shook on the ground, and the blue lights pulsed. Green eyes suddenly rose like floating lights, eying their surroundings. "Are you my companion? My name is Harry; it's nice to meet you!"

►In the hunting community, there is an unobtainable prize that every apprentice is told about. The prize is a half-man/half-stag that roams the Forbidden Woods called the Raven Stag. [...] The unknown makes the hunters that much more eager to hunt it down and have its head mounted on a wall. Still, no one has ever seen this creature, much less know that the creature's name is Harry and he just wants to live in peace.

Then, one night at a party, Draco Malfoy whispers in his ear: Do you want to leave with me?

Draco Malfoy is very much along for the ride, in all senses of the word. Rec Post

While Draco struggles to gather information on this mysteriously absent hero, he and Harry start communicating again for the first time since they were kids.

Double Trouble by multiverse_of_fanfic

Four years after the War, Draco is stuck in a dead-end job, paper-pushing his life away. Until one day, after a security breach in the Ministry, he receives an offer he can’t refuse. Thrown back into a world he thought he’d left behind, Draco must wrestle with his Death Eater past as well as his inconvenient — and forbidden — feelings for an annoyingly level-headed Harry Potter.

Will he manage to come out unscathed like he has most of his life, or will it all come crashing down? Rec Post

Here are a few more fics I've read recently that y'all might like to check out as well!(ノﾟ∀ﾟ)ノ━☆ﾟ･*:.｡. .｡.:*･.*･｡ﾟ*:・ﾟ✧

Weapons of Massive Consumption by SanderVanSunshine @sandervansunshine

Eight years after the war, Harry Potter lives a life of hedonism: raging parties, huge impulse purchases, and seemingly no worries. But it's Draco Malfoy—former Death Eater, lover of blueberry muffins, and bane of coffee shop workers—who starts to wonder if it's all a front, if something's actually terribly wrong with him. Why else would Potter ask Draco, of all fucking people, to write his biography?

What We Left Behind by peachydreamxx @peachydreamxx

Harry's recovering from an injury. Malfoy's recovering from heartbreak. Beaten down and bruised, Harry takes up Malfoy's offer to stay at his secluded seaside cottage in Dorset. It'll be good to get away from it all. It's only for a few days, and it's only so he can heal. Nothing else. Digging up past feelings will only make matters worse, and besides, Malfoy doesn't feel the same way. Does he?

Take You Home by lq_traintracks (lumosed_quill) @lqtraintracks

Everybody’s a little fucked up after the war, Draco especially. What starts as hate sex after a night out, eventually turns into something else, something more like comfort. And even though his friends all tell Harry he’s just being used, all Harry’s doing is making sure Draco gets home in one piece. He’s not falling helplessly in love.

Vipera Berus by Justlikewriting

Everything was fine. Draco resided at the Manor, made a decent living selling potions and most of his customers actually kept coming back despite his last name. Hence, Draco was fine. He really was. So what, if he was still waiting.

Title & Possession by Kbrick @kbrick

Harry Potter’s life is going well in the aftermath of the war. Sure, his house is dark and run-down and might hate him (while his house elf definitely hates him). But other than that, things are good. Except, yeah, okay, Hermione and Ron are no longer on speaking terms. Worse, they keep trying to get Harry to pick sides. But otherwise, Harry couldn’t be happier. Well. Except for the fact that Ginny is being super weird about their relationship and never wants to have sex or talk about the future. But other than that, Harry is perfectly fine, thankyouverymuch. At least, he is until Draco Malfoy sues him for ownership of Number Twelve, Grimmauld Place. Then Harry really isn’t fine at all.
