Overheard

~

Hurrying towards Harrods, Harry barely glanced up at the sign as he moved through the bustling crowds surrounding the shop. Once inside, he headed for the magical entrance, looking around to be sure no Muggles saw him before he drew his wand and tapped on the stone statue.

“Welcome to Harrods,” said the statue, opening its cloak before gesturing him inside.

After he slipped through, there was a moment of disorientation and then Harry joined the throng of witches, wizards, and creatures shopping.

He was looking through some books when he heard a familiar voice. “I thought you were done already?”

Frowning, Harry looked up to see Draco Malfoy and Pansy Parkinson standing across from him. “I am, I just have some last minute items to pick up,” said Parkinson. “Including something for you.”

“Well you know what I want,” said Malfoy. “I’ve made no secret if it.”

“Yes, yes, I know you want a boyfriend. Everyone on this continent knows.” Parkinson crossed her arms over her chest. “If you were less picky—”

Malfoy smirked, tossing his hair. “I can’t help it if I’m particular about the men I date.”

Harry blinked, his world reorienting as Malfoy’s words hit him. Malfoy was gay. He studied Malfoy, subjecting him to a slow once-over. He’d clearly changed. His hair was longer, brushing his shoulders, which were broader, more muscled. The rest of him had filled out a bit, too. He was even somehow less…pointy than Harry remembered. He should have no problem finding a boyfriend.

Parkinson snorted, turning away. “You’re going to die alone if you keep being so particular, Draco. Just because you’re holding out for someone like—”

“Don’t say his name!” Malfoy scowled. “Someone my hear you! And I refuse to have it get back to him how I feel.”

“All right.” Parkinson smirked. “But Potter’s bound to find out you’re crushing on him one day.”

“What did I say?” hissed Malfoy. “Shut up!”

Blinking, Harry’s mouth fell open as he watched the bickering friends moved out of earshot. Malfoy had a crush on him? Since when?

I love this so much! Such a cool idea for Harrods to have a magical entrance. Do you post on ao3? If not, I’ll try to keep up with the story here on DW. It’s off to a cute start and I don’t want to lose track of it.
