Summary
Harry, Ron, and Hermione have returned to Hogwarts to complete their education, along with many of their old classmates. Few of those who had found themselves on the losing side of the war returned to Hogwarts; those who have are greeted with dislike and mistrust, none more so than the son of the infamous Lucius Malfoy. Luckily for him, there will always be those willing to stand up against cruelty, no matter who it targets.
Slow build, eventual Drarry, not a lot of angst because I'm the emotional equivalent of cotton candy-- fluffy, soft, doesn't mix well with waterworks...Bookmarked by chaosandcoco

Bookmarker's Notes
But his disorderly ‘do was not why Harry was staring as his long-time arch nemesis entered the Great Hall. He was covered in blood-- his own blood by the looks of his bruised and broken face. Harry noticed with surprise that Malfoy was limping. More shocking still, the person supporting the majority of Malfoy’s weight was…
“Neville?” Ron’s tone betrayed Harry’s own feelings. If anyone had the right to hate Malfoy, the Death Eater nephew of Bellatrix Lestrange that had bullied him mercilessly since the two of them were 11 years old, it was Neville Longbottom. Yet, there he was, practically carrying his old enemy into the Great Hall.
...The two of them danced easily. Everything faded and grew quiet. There was Draco, who seemed to have absorbed the starlight, holding it in his eyes, lashes, and hair. Even his pale skin was strangely luminescent under the cool lights of the ballroom.
...“I’m sure you don’t consciously,” Harry tried to interrupt, but Hermione just raised her voice and her eyebrows, barreling on, “And clearly you aren’t gay, Harry, but… we thought you might be bisexual. You always seemed like you were a bit attracted to Bill, Dean, Zabini, Diggory--”
...
Mr. Weasley started polishing his glasses as he went on, “You’ll have to decide your priorities for yourselves. If you value anything or any person, if you want them stay in your life, you have to make the effort. When you know what is important you have to do more than just leave room for it, life doesn’t let you just leave room. You either pursue it or it fades away.”
“Like when Charlie went off to Romania... “He decided family was a priority. It isn’t as easy as it seems to stay in contact, to visit, to send letters once you’ve grown up...
...
“No, I mean… It’s not just guys. It’s that… I’m a bit attracted to... Malfoy. That’s weird, right?”Ron gave Harry a look that was equal parts amusement and frustration. He held up the picture from the Prophet.
“Harry, that is not attraction, my friend.That’s not even remotely what attraction looks like.” He jabbed a finger at the image, “That isn’t even affection. That’s tenderness, that is. L-O-V-E. Love. Romance. You’re a complete goner for Malfoy.” Ron was choking on laughter before he’d reached the end of his speech. He wiped his watery eyes and continued, “And yeah, it’s a bit weird, and a lot funny, but it’s good for you, good for both of you.”
