• Draco pining for Harry since sixth year
• Like he just needs someone to save him, to care for him, who better than the savior of the entire wizarding world?
• Three years after the war finally ends, and Harry’s Auror work leads him to St. Mungo’s where Draco is a healer
• And when did Draco get so attractive ???
• Harry finds himself going back several times a week with increasingly frail excuses to see him
• “Er, I got a paper cut and I forgot the healing charm.”
• “You do realize bandages exist, right Potter?”
• Finally he goes “fuck it, I didn’t die to keep these feelings to myself” and asks him on a date
• This goes on for a while, and things are super good for both of them
• They finally begin to feel normal again
• Harry eventually wants to come out to his family (the Weasleys, Andromeda, Teddy who’s far too young to understand but he’ll be damned if he keeps a single secret from that child)
• Draco wants to come out too, but his family is so torn apart
• So they do it together, hand-in-hand, at a Weasley family gathering and when they finally convince Andy and Narcissa to meet
• They move in together a few months later and have a guest bedroom for Merlin-knows who will stay with them
• The longer they stay together, the more time Andy leaves Teddy alone with them, secretly testing them as parents
• That room eventually becomes Teddy’s room, full of warmth and color and so, so many pictures of Remus and Tonks
• And they heal together, mending the scars they both hide beneath the surface
• Draco eventually decides he wants his Dark Mark hidden, as instead of a reminder of his past mistakes, it becomes a trigger for horrible anxiety, so he goes and gets the constellations of his family tattooed over it
• Harry gets a tattoo of Canis Major, complete with twinkling Sirius star on the same day
• He would end up with a full moon, a rack of antlers, and a lily flower on his body as well
• They take even bigger roles in Teddy’s life, as a cousin to Draco and godson to Harry
• Teddy loves the zoo, and they have weekly trips there, but once its raining so they go to the animal shelter instead
• Draco falls in love with every single cat, but they immediately make Harry sneeze
• Teddy becomes attached to a large black dog, but to Harry it looks a bit too much like another one
• Draco literally refuses to leave without rescuing at least one animal
• They eventually decide to adopt two sphynx cats they find on the muggle internet because they’re hypoallergenic and many people consider them to be ugly, but they fit so well into their strange family
• Draco thinks they look absolutely regal and wants to name them after constellations, but Harry’s having none of it
• A few months later, Harry stops in the middle of a Quidditch game they’re playing with Teddy
• “Draco, will you marry me?”
• It’s so random that Draco nearly falls off his broom in shock, but he says yes an instant later, and the game continues
• After the wedding, in which Teddy is the most adorable ring bearer to grace the earth, his hair matching their colors of emerald and gold, Andromeda approaches them with the idea of the two of them adopting Teddy as their own
• It’d be so much easier for the two of them to keep up with him and raise him into modern society, and she just wants to step back and be a grandmother more than a parent
• When Draco enthusiastically agrees to it, Harry can’t help but break down in tears
• After living his whole life without a family, after everyone he’s lost, and after all he’s fought for, he can finally just live and be happy
• Harry and Draco Malfoy-Potter and their Son Teddy Remus Lupin along with their two cats, Dobby and Colin, grow old together because for fuck’s sake these three deserve to be happy

This is everything I needed and didn’t know that I needed.
