awdt 's Halloween Quickie prompt "skeletons." This story may be slightly crack!fic, but it was fun to write anyway!
“-and while I do realise you would hate to have my plebeian clothes anywhere next to yours, I am going to need some closet space,” Harry gently reminded the man who was currently curled into his side.
“Er… about that-” Draco began, stiffening. “You see, I’ve got something to tell you…”
“Are you having second thoughts?” Harry pulled his arm out from under Draco’s head and looked at him sharply. “I’ve already given my landlord notice!”
“No, no,” Draco attempted to soothe him. “I still want you to move in. I- I just need to tell you about the skeletons in my closet.”
“Draco-” Harry began.
“Hear me out, Harry!” Draco asserted.
“You still haven’t told me everything about your past? Don’t you realise I’ve been around for most of it? And we’ve been together how many years?” Harry continued, looking pained.
“No, no,” Draco shook his head. “Hush. You know everything there is to know about me and my sordid past.”
“Well, then, what are you talking about?” Harry tossed his arms into the air.
“I told you just to listen!” Malfoy huffed. “Now I’m not sure if I want to tell you.”
“Draco,” Harry said warningly.
“Well, maybe I’ll just show you.” He hopped out of bed and grabbed Harry’s hand, dragging him along. Draco rested his hand on the closet knob and asked, “Ready?”
“Oh, please,” Harry rolled his eyes. When he saw Draco was serious, he replied indulgently, “Yes, I’m ready.”
Draco nodded once and opened the door. Harry’s jaw dropped.
“Good morrow, Draco! You are here rather earlier than usual. And who is this?”
“Morning, Frank. This is Harry. Where is Jon?”
“Jon? He just ran to get some tea. Oh, so this is the famous Harry! He is rather cute, but has he always had that affliction?” Frank asked, clearly puzzled. Harry quickly shut his mouth. “Perhaps the two of you can stay for our morning tea? I’d rather like to get to know this fellow better. Especially since you hold him in such high esteem!”
“You… Closet… What?!” Harry spluttered.
“Does he not know how to carry on a decent conversation?” Frank questioned to Draco. “Ah, I hear Jon.” He turned backwards and called out, “Did you get the Earl Grey?”
“Of course! Do you think I’m daft?” Jon called back. “Oy! Who is that with Draco?”
“Why, that’s Harry!” Frank shouted back. If he had eyelids, Harry was sure he would have winked. “Cute fleshy, isn’t he?”
“I do hope he’ll stay around for tea,” Jon said before setting the tray with cups and the pot on the small table.
Draco laughed. “I told you I had skeletons in my closet.”
“I didn’t think you meant that literally!” Harry hissed.
“They came with the flat,” Draco shrugged.
Harry opened and closed his mouth a few more times. He pinched his eyebrows together, puzzling over something. He finally asked, “How do they drink tea?!”
“Same way as you,” Jon huffed. He turned to Draco. “I thought you said he was smart!”
“He can be,” Draco laughed. “He’s just a little daft about how magic works at times.”
“Magic,” Harry repeated. “Right.”
“Now, be your charming self,” Draco told him before addressing the skeletons again. “Harry’s going to move his clothes in here soon.”
“Sure,” Frank replied, transfiguring two extra cups from some shoes. Harry wrinkled his nose. “Plenty of room. Lovely size of a closet. Two scoops or one, Harry?”
“None, thanks,” Harry replied, clearing his throat. “I like it black.”
“So…” Draco intoned, searching Harry’s face for acceptance. “Is this okay?”
Harry smiled in response before giving Draco a light peck on the lips. “Well, one thing I can say for sure is that life with you will never be dull.”
“As if I could ever be dull!” Draco huffed.
Fin.
