Summary:

This is a story about Harry meeting up with Draco Malfoy four years after the war. And a story about Harry, well, not hating his job per say, but it's not like he has much to compare it to and it seemed fine. His whole life seemed fine. Then Malfoy came along with and his flashy suits and fast car making everything seem dull in comparison, and Harry... Harry couldn't just leave well enough alone.

Excerpt:

Harry grabbed Draco’s arm, leaning close so Tiffy wouldn’t be able to hear, “I can’t dance.”

“I know that. I was there fifth year, wasn’t I?” Draco said.

Harry grimaced.

“Can you jump, Potter?”

“What?”

“Jump,” Draco repeated, “All you have to do is jump with the beat. Think you can manage?”

Harry nodded, “I… yeah?”

“Good,” Draco said.

Megan put on a pair of sunglasses and gave them two thumbs up. Tiffy grabbed her arm and pulled her toward the other room and the thumping music. Draco followed on their heel, and Harry held onto Draco so they wouldn’t get separated in the crowd, his grip slipping down until he was holding tightly onto Draco’s hand. Draco looked back at him, and Harry grinned and managed to coax a hesitant smile from Draco.

They fell into the mass of people, some dancing but most of them just jumping with the beat, a chaotic wave of movement. Harry could feel the thrum from the speakers on his skin, a pulse vibrating through the floor. Draco pulled him into motion, and Harry let himself go, losing himself in the rhythm like a heartbeat, all of them moving in time, so Harry felt more and more a part of the crowd rather than just himself. And Draco, Draco was right beside him, just as lost and so so beautiful, his hair flying wild, sweat making his hair and skin shimmer under the lights, and an easy, carefree smile on his face that Harry couldn’t look away from.

They paused a few songs in, panting to catch their breath. Draco bought two shots from a tray carried around by a staffer that looked like he’d very much be dancing than working, and pressed one into Harry’s hand.

“That’s five!” Harry said with a frown.

Draco ignored him, grimacing and coughing at the taste. He reached out like he would take Harry’s, so Harry quickly threw back the shot and coughed, it was jagermeister, strong and horrible tasting. Draco shared his look of disgust. He bought another one, though.

“Draco!” Harry smacked him on the arm.

“Liquid courage!” Draco shouted above the music and shoved the glass back on the tray. He grabbed Harry and pulled him back into the crowd as the next song began to pick up, grip tight on his arm.

As everyone moved around them, Draco cupped both hands around Harry’s face and kissed him, hard and bruising, nearly falling as Harry was bumped from behind, only to clutch onto Draco that much tighter. Feeling breathless and giddy, they danced together, grasping after one another’s hands and arms, trying to stay close even as the buzz of alcohol made their heads spin.
