PART 2 ( ON HIGH DEMAND BY @cissa-bee @drarrycookie @drarry-is-my-therapy @littlebodybigheartttt @loves-to-read-fanfic )

Draco looked up at harry quizzically " reasons to not be - harry- what ? "

Annoyed draco shook the paper in his hands

" draco - it's not what you think I promise-"

" no- it is exactly what I think it is. You've literally written not to like me or more in your words, reasons to hate draco malfoy " draco bellowed with disappointment

" draco I swear- just let me explain- "

" what possibly can you explain me with this ? Huh? It clearly states why Someone shouldn't like me- you know- I - I just need to know if it's written by you ?" Draco's voice quivered with possibly the pain of listening a predictable answer

" I - draco- just please- it's not what you think-"

" is it written by you or not harry ?" He raised his voice demanding an answer

Harry looked crushed more than he could've anticipated. He knew saying the truth will hurt him and hurting draco right now was definitely not something on his mind but it was exactly what he was doing standing there quietly, waiting for an explosion.

" harry- I just- I just need to know if you've written this, please " draco's voice sounded more shaky.

Harry more so than ever wanted to dig a hole right here and bury himself 6 feet under, away from wanting to tell the truth but he knew he was doing more harm than good.

" y- yes " harry spoke shortly, sighing.

Draco bit his lip controlling his emotions, trying to not to just sob in front of someone who wanted to hate him.

" I thought you were different " draco whispered.

" let me-"

" good luck potter" draco interrupted, throwing the paper over Harry's face and storming out.

Harry remained there listening to the hustling in the corridor until the door completely shut and he was left with, silence. Silence which right now seemed too loud.

And as harry expected, draco completely cut himself off from everything. He wasn't seen for Long in courtyard and if he was, whenever he'd see harry he'd scramble away. If he was in the halls, and almost on the verge of facing harry, he'd turn around and walk away and in classroom, he chose the furthest seat from harry and departed much more early than him. He was avoiding, ignoring harry to be more precise and was doing a pretty good job at that. However as days went on harry found himself much more guilty of his initial steps. It wasn't so hard for him to actually believe that he liked him, at least back then he had a chance but right now draco won't even look at harry and what hurt the most is what draco had said about harry being different. It came like a howling wind knocking on Harry's door every night, taking him on a guilt trip. Everything that harry could think of to fix things with draco seemed like a doomed idea when he did the absolute worst he could've imagined of.

But harry knew better than to give up, so, he came back to his home, the treasure which led to most of his discoveries, the marauders map. It seemed like intrusion but something was better than nothing. So he spread the marauders map over his bed and started looking for every possible place he could see which would lead him to draco. It took him almost 15 minutes to find draco, the kitchens. Frowning to himself, what a strange place to be at school, he picked up his map, pulled the invisibility cloak and ran as fast as he could to the kitchen. As he started approaching the kitchen, he slowed down his speed in order to not scare draco if he were outside. When he finally reached the door, he saw draco getting out of the kitchen smiling, with a small muffin in his hand.

Harry carefully pulled off his cloak and cleared his throat to get draco's attention which he inevitably did however as soon draco saw harry, he rolled his eyes and started to walk away.

" Draco- wait " harry yelled

" please " he spoke out loud again cautiously following draco. He saw draco's shoulder rise and then fell and then he finally turned around

" here to give me another page for reasons to hate me, or wait is it a book this time ?" draco sneered

harry huffed " its not- i'm sorry for what happened in the washroom the other day-"

" oh yeah, you are ?" draco raised an eyebrow at harry in a mockery

" what- of course i am-"

" well it still doesn't change anything, viola on that harry " draco shrugged his shoulders at harry

" what do you want me to do then? It wasn't intentional draco, but you're just not ready to listen to me "

" if i do listen would it still change the fact that you were trying to find faults in me or finding reasons to hate me?" draco asked his expressions dissolving a bit

" i-no "

" there you go then " draco threw his hands softly in air to prove his point

" but-"

" harry, tell me what would you feel like if i did exactly what you're afraid of ? if that day in the washroom i had told you that you are a disappointment, that you have let down people? what would you feel like if i try to corrupt something that you had tried so hard to build up? how would you feel to see that the one person you thought was different, the person you thought understood you, the person you're most guilty for treating them wrong your entire life, the person you tell your worst fears to does exactly what you fear, tell you that you are infact never going to change because guess what people like you never change ? tell me how would you feel if you were me and I was finding flaws in you for whatever reasons when all you had been trying to do is trying to fix them ? tell me how would you feel ? "

Harry stood their dumbfolded unable to think of how to tell him that it would feel like shit. Unable to think of any possible way to explain draco that he would feel like a complete disaster, a complete disappointment. How could he tell draco when he had slapped harry metaphorically for ruining everything for him. But all he did was remain quiet, not because he was speechless but because for once he wanted to be sensible, because he deserved this, because if he were him, he'd want draco to think exactly what Harry's thinking right now. Because harry had screwed up so bad that he deserved nothing but this.

" thought so " draco clenched his jaws in pure annoyance before he walked off from harry, once again with disappointment washing over him a cool breeze.

What draco had said to him had effected him so much that in the next few days harry himself avoided Draco Just because he couldn't stand in front of a man who possibly hated him right now, who he had hurt in worst possible ways. But even if it was wrong, it inevitably made harry more infatuated with draco, how suddenly draco grew so unbelievably attractive to him, everything about draco just seemed so beautiful and harry was doomed all because he knew he couldn't have him. Because you're doomed when you're in love. The only problem was, harry was in love with someone who truly hated him.

" look harry, If I don't know anything else, I know one thing that you need to fix it, no matter what it takes. You can't sulk here, hating yourself for whatever you did. That page basically was the reasons to love that guy, he probably didn't even read it, if he had I swear he would've laughed " Ron encouraged harry once again on a fine Saturday while walking back off from the quidditch pitch.

" look Ron, I appreciate you trying to meddle in with my issue but draco clearly hates me, I think it's better that way. And honestly I wouldn't had forgive anyone who would've done the same to me " harry sighed

" it's anything but true. And it's not because we've been friends for so long, it's because I know you never hold grudges. I know it because you're in love with a git who basically infested his love in bullying you " Ron had never said something more sensible in his entire life and harry blamed it upon Hermione being his girlfriend now. It wasn't usual of Ron to talk about things in a genuine way but maybe it was hurting him to see his best friend hating himself more than he had ever hated himself over some boy he knew he desperately wanted.

" ro-"

" fix it harry.. you'll never be happy if you don't " and with that Ron ran off. And harry once again was left in his Asylum of his thoughts which ran wild with the aftermath of Ron's words. It was hard to know what made him happy anymore but what he did know is that seeing draco smiling while he read something In the courtyard made him happy, seeing draco during his lessons made him happy, writing out the list made him happy, watching him made him happy, the day in the washroom was the happiest he ever felt until he screwed it up and he knew what didn't make him happy was knowing that he has hurt draco with injuries that could only be remedied by harry.

It was during the evening when Draco was sitting in the great hall when suddenly Someone came to him and dropped a note in front of him.

" follow the notes to reach the end of the treasure.

1. He's a complete douchebag "

Frowning to himself draco stood up to find whoever dropped the note to ask what the note was about, or who sent it or whatever it meant but the one who had dropped the note had vanished in the bunch of students.

Draco had just made it past the great hall and took a right when someone gave him the note and ran away again.

" 2. He is definitely not smart "

Scrunching his face in ultimate confusion draco saw a little arrow on the bottom, pointing forward. So he moved forward, the notes still in his hand.

He had almost took a turn when someone dragged him forward again and gave him the note again,

" what? Who are they from ?" Draco asked annoyed with the mystery man who was sending him these

" follow the arrows " he said and ran off again.

Sighing draco opened the next note and read

"3. He's a moron "

" well don't know who it is about but whoever Sending It,sure is " draco mumbled to himself and moved forward according to the arrows.

Next he met with a girl just on a turn and again ran. At this point draco didn't even try to ask. He opened the note and read again.

"4. Because he deserve it "

Sighing draco took the turn and reached the end of the hall once again, meeting another boy who handed him the note. Draco without a doubt took it and read it, finding it a little amusing how organised the whole treasure thing he was on,was.

" 5. Because he screws up everything and surely is not a romantic"

Draco raised his eyebrows frowning, now more curious to know who it was about.

The next note he met with was on a intersection between two halls, leading somehow draco felt like was the courtyard. The girl handed him the note, pointed behind her and ran off like the rest.

" 6. Because he's the most scaredy pants ever who can't confess these out loud "

" nice one " draco said with an amused then immediately looked up to see if nobody had seen him talking to a note.

He followed the direction again and met with Someone with a note on a far left, definitely leading to the courtyard.

" 7. Because he's the least careful person of all "

" are you sure these are for me ?" He asked the only boy who had not ran.

" absolutely " and then he too walked away .

Draco followed the direction once again and met with Someone on a right for the courtyard.

" 8. Because he definitely is an absolute wanker who doesn't know how to dress up "

Smiling to himself he walked to the next girl standing just on the entrance to the courtyard. He happily took the note from her and read it.

" 9. Because when he should've apologized a thousand times, he didn't "

Frowning Draco looked up to see the girl was gone and harry was waiting at the centre of the courtyard, with a note in his hand.

" so these were all from you ?" Draco raised an eyebrow at harry, crossing his arms in front of him.

" 10. Because in the moment when he should've explained what that page had meant, he didn't. Because he didn't try enough. Because he couldn't just bloody damn accept the fact that he was in love and is pretty sure doomed either way " harry read from the note then handed it over to draco.

Draco sucked the left of his cheek waiting for harry to explain himself.

" I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry-"

" oh shut up " draco impatiently said, a little smile fighting to curve over the corner of his lips.

" what are these ?" He asked.

" look at the last note " and draco did and read out loud

" reasons to hate harry potter by harry potter- this is ridiculous " draco shook his head.

" Draco Lucius Malfoy, allow me to read this to you " harry requested like a gentlemen..

Rolling his eyes draco nodded.

" 1. The prat have the most fucking Adorable smile . It's illegal to have such an adorable smile "

" 2. The idiot have the most beautiful fingers, bet it's stolen. They're the most fucking annoying thing ever and I can't bloody stop staring at it "

" 3. The git have perfect annoying stormy eyes which makes you dream but also take you somewhere only both us could be "

"okay what is this? The 2.0 version of reasons to hate you ?" Draco asked sighing.

" If that day in the washroom you would've read these points, you would've laughed saying that these aren't some flaws, these are the things I notice about you that I love so much but am afraid to tell you "

" and why should I believe you ?" Draco raised his eyebrows

" because- I'm an asshole "

" because you're an asshole ?" Draco almost laughed

" because I'm an asshole " harry chuckled

" because you're an asshole ? And what difference should it make ?" Draco asked almost smiling

" because I'm an asshole begging for your forgiveness.. I know I don't deserve it draco but I would go high and low for you to forgive me. I fucked up and I know, I fucked up too bad but you have to understand that I wanted to burn this letter after we had spent time in the washroom together. You said that it's weird how both of our fears are the same, but Its not weird. I don't think it is. I think it is the most appropriate reason why I am in love with you. It is easier to not love someone when you know that there is at least a single flaw but I searched and searched yet I've found none and I know it sounds bad when I say it this way but it is true, I regret trying to find a flaw in you but the truth is I couldn't find one because I wasn't trying to. You're perfect to me but I'm Afraid of loving you but loving you is the Only thing that has made me happy and one stupid guy once told me that if I didn't fix this I'd never be happy but I don't want to do this because I want to be happy but because I want to prove you that I am an asshole but I want to be your asshole who can tell you each day that draco lucius Malfoy, you are perfect to me in every possible way. I am hopelessly, madly , irresistibly in love with you and I hope one day you are too. So there you go, I'm an asshole because I said all this even though you've got an extremely expression less face right now " harry vented it all in a breath just like he had practiced it a 100 times in front of the mirror before this.

" bullshit " draco replied

" what ?"

" I said, bullshit. B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T " draco emphasised

" I- I don't get it. I just made an entire speech which I'm pretty sure I practiced like a million times in front the fucking mirror, annoyed my friends to know if I had broken their heart would this be appropriate but here you are- seriously bullshit ?" Harry narrowed his eyes in annoyance throwing his hands in the air.

Draco sighed closing his eyes before opening again to continue " its bullshit how you think I already don't feel the same for you "

" bullshit because you - wait what ?" Harry shook his head rapidly trying to wrap his head around the new piece of information

" it's bullshit that you'd think I don't feel the same way about you or how you think you're the only one who's happy to be in love and how you think that you're the only one Afraid of loving " draco pointed finally breaking out a smile

Harry threw his head back grinning " you've got an awful of confessing back "

" well you've got an awful of admitting you love me "

" hm- fair enough " harry chuckled.

Draco bit his lip smiling at harry.

" does this mean you forgive me ?" Harry finally asked

" no "

" what-"

" but I will if you'll take me out " draco added smirking

" i- did you just ask yourself out on a date for me ?" Harry chuckled stepping closer to him.

" i think I just did. If you will " draco smiled

" okay " harry smiled standing almost an inch apart from draco

" okay " Draco whispered smiling

" can I kiss you ?" Harry asked looking his lips

" If you promise this won't be the last time you do it " draco mumbled staring at his lips too.

" I promise " harry replied and then he softly kissed draco, no tongue just a small, light, soft kiss as a mark of a beginning.

And suddenly they heart hooting from around them. Harry immediately broke free laughing.

" what ?" Draco asked confused, his forehead pressed against harry's

" that would be everyone I made to deliver these notes from and my friends " harry mumbled

" well then lets give them a show " draco chuckled and pressed his lips firmly against harry and this time snogging the day lights out him that he could almost trip them over.

" okay too much " they suddenly heard Ron groaning from the crowd making them break free again, laughing.

" I'm sorry " harry finally said

" I know "

Requests open

Day 31- would you come back to me | Day32-part 1 | Day 33- cruise to alberobello

32. Reasons to not be in love with draco malfoy by harry

Prompt used- caressing the other's back | ANGST/FLUFF | UNREQUITED LOVE | HURT/COMFORT | Eighth year harry finds it hard to admit that he infact loves draco ..

" is it so bad harry that you like him ? " Hermione asked as a sad look dawned upon her tanned face

" what-no- yes- i mean- I don't like him. It's just he has changed so much and it seems unrealistic " harry covered up his tinted face by entailed more into his book

" sure harry, we believe you " Ron sarcastically responded.

" Ron- harry, you know it, you're lying to yourself and what if Draco have actually changed so much. I mean he apologized to me for everything he ever did. That has to be something and it was a genuine apology-"

" apologies doesn't change what he's done. And I don't like Malfoy " harry persisted almost agressively.

Hermione sighed looking at Ron, an indication for him to take the lead.

" mate, I hate him just as much as you do but she's right you know. You can ignore your feelings for how long! One day you would have to face them-"

" so what you want me to just go upto him and ask him out on a date? How blinded can you be ? I will prove that he hasn't changed. I will prove it " with that harry stormed out of the common room to the court yard to be under the sun and complete the rest of his work.

The problem was harry was immensely crushing on draco but it was so hard for him to believe that he'd much rather look for his flaws, it was easier as harry would like to put it. But it was so hard for him to actually look for a single flaw in draco after the war because he had changed completely. Long gone were the days when he used slurs like mudblood, in fact he himself was sending letters to the ministry over and over for stop discriminating against werewolves, muggle borns, squibs, and half bloods. It seemed too good to be true but harry knew he was genuinely doing it but his fainting heart didn't wanted to wake up one day and know that draco had not changed at all, so he chose to still finding his flaws.

2 weeks later upon constant teasing by Ron and Hermione about his research to find something suspicious or something flawed about draco, he realised he was standing in front of a lake which was completely dry. There wasn't even a single flaw and his heart could only take so much.

But he didn't wanted to give up, so during one of his charms lessons, harry took his quill and paper and started writing.

" Reasons not to be in love with draco malfoy "
