Restless Sleep

Draco always slept soundly in his bed, the curtains pulled shut, enclosing him in a dark, quiet cocoon. At home, he was safe and sound, secure behind the family wards.

At Hogwarts, Draco's nightly routine was undisturbed, and he still slept peacefully no matter what occurred in the hallowed halls. Until his Sixth Year. Nightmares plagued his sleep, stealing his sanity. That was entirely his own fault as he'd let the wolf in himself.

Draco learned that there much to fear in the light as well as the dark. Sleep had forsaken him while things went bump in the night.

Filthy Minded

Draco couldn't believe Longbottom was the Herbologist hired to restore the Malfoy lands to their former glory. It seemed such a shame that the heir to one of the oldest pureblood families had been reduced to such menial labour. However, it suited the clumsy boy he remembered.

Draco watched Longbottom as he worked, moving from plot to plot, getting dirtier and completely unaware of the scrutiny.

Once finished, Longbottom stood and stretched, removing his shirt to wipe away the grime from his face. Draco arched a brow at Longbottom's toned abdomen; perhaps he needed to rethink his opinion of Longbottom.

Got a twofer for you today, and I'll most likely post another as I am really getting back into the swing of things once more.

A Weasley Welcome

Draco eyed the ramshackle house with disdain, arching a brow as a garden gnome popped its head out of an old boot and gave him a double fingered salute. The gnome dropped back into the shoe, shoving the tongue up to shut out the intruders to his home.

Draco looked up at Charlie. "Such a lovely welcome."

Charlie chuckled, placing his hand on Draco's back. "Don't worry; I'm certain the others will be more polite… maybe."

Draco snorted as Charlie pushed open the door; both men were quickly enveloped by Molly and ushered to the warmth of the Burrow's hearth.

A Fetish at First Sight

After making his decision to deter his mother's matchmaking, Draco began watching Longbottom as he worked. He was subtle, of course, as a Malfoy should be, and didn't think Longbottom had noticed his new hobby.

At first, it was just a peek through the French doors, then a stroll around the gardens, and finally, he started taking long teas out on the balcony.

On the pretence of inspecting the work being done, Draco told himself repeatedly, he ventured out onto the grounds again.

Draco found Longbottom waiting on him.

"Care to explain this new voyeurism fetish you have developed, Malfoy?"

In Want Of A… Wife?

Draco stood on the terrace, staring out at the fountain in the front lawn. The first duty as heir to the remaining Malfoy fortune was almost finished. His mother had reminded him this morning of the next one.

He turned at the sound of a noise and spotted Longbottom. The man was bent over, digging in the dirt, his back to Draco. He sat and wiped his face with the grimy shirt he wore.

Draco arched a brow, studying Longbottom's strong back as it was exposed. Perhaps an indication of a different choice would deter the sound of wedding bells.

Perfectly Nurtured

Draco roamed the newly planted gardens, collecting the supplies needed to brew a fresh batch of Draught of Living Death. The potion was the only one strong enough to help him sleep through the nightmares that plagued him. Muffling charms only concealed so much, and Malfoys didn't resort to glamours. It wouldn't do to have the news reach the papers that he was dependent on such philtres.

He trusted no one but himself to brew his potions. That was the reason he'd had Longbottom plant so many medicinal herbs on the grounds. He knew Longbottom would nurture perfectly grown plants.

You know... I shouldn't be left alone when I have insomnia. I went and joined three more drabbling comms last night. Here's the first one for my new comm.

Starting Over

Malfoy Manor had to be completely renovated after the war. Draco had taken this restoration period as an opportunity to begin his new life.

He made certain that his home was being handled with the greatest of care; it was only proper, of course. However, Draco also took the time to extend the hand of generosity so others benefited as well.

When Neville Longbottom announced his plans to open a Wizarding nursery, Draco was the first to consign Longbottom to restore the gardens at Malfoy Manor.

If his mother could make peace with Potter, he could start over with Longbottom.
