    Summary

    Draco hadn’t chosen the easy way out. He’d defied his parents and created his own path: whatever people thought, however little money he had, he had built a life for himself. And it was difficult. Hard. But more than he deserved.

    Meanwhile, Harry had done exactly what had been expected of him, had moulded his life entirely the way he’d been supposed to. But then Ginny had left him anyway. And it was difficult. Unfair. And not at all what he’d expected.

    Which was when he saw Draco Malfoy, clearly not particularly welcome, walking into the Ministry on a Friday afternoon nonetheless.

    Summary

    "The potion," Malfoy gasped.

    It was the only warning he got before a thick plume of smoke descended on them, filling the room.

    Harry couldn't help but breathe in surprise. It tasted sweet, almost cloyingly so.

    "Bloody hell, I think I know what happened," Malfoy said. Harry couldn't even hear him properly, not until he was grabbed roughly by the arm and away from the hard floor to the soft bedding of one of their beds. "Potter, you absolute fucking fool. You turned our potion into a lust potion."

    or: harry was getting used to having malfoy as his eighth year roommate. just his luck though, one potion project threatens to ruin it all.

    Summary

    There are roots growing in Draco Malfoy’s chest. Twisted, spindly, spiky things that tear across his lungs as though they are made of dirt and clay.

    They first bloomed just beneath his sternum in the summer before sixth year. Little more than a seed, the roots weren’t particularly painful at first. Just big enough to create a tight ball of pressure below his heart.

    He wasn’t aware, at this point, of the nature of the pain in his chest. Perhaps he assumed it was anxiety. Stress. Fear. Terror. He was in the clutches of the Dark Lord, after all. Draco had plenty of reasons to experience pain in his chest.

    So, when he began to wheeze while climbing the moving staircases, he simply believed himself to be out of shape.

    When crimson splattered against his palm with every other cough, he just muttered a hushed cleansing charm.

    And when he began to look as ill as he felt, it was just because he wasn’t eating well. Wasn’t taking care of himself.

    He was more focused on that damned cabinet- on the threat to his family’s lives- than something as trivial as chest pain.

    So Draco persisted. And the roots grew into flowers.
