Summary
Two wizards walk into a therapist’s office... What sounds like the beginning of a bad joke becomes much more when war-torn Harry Potter, now a seasoned Auror, is forced by his superior and best friend Hermione Granger to attend a Muggle support group, where he meets, of all people, his old school rival Draco Malfoy and this is just the beginning of an very unusual love story.
Harry realizes that Draco is right. He's no longer the abandoned boy under the stairs at the Dursleys. He's bloody Harry Potter. His word carries weight now. He can use it. He can assert himself.
He imagines what it would be like. He watches Malfoy walk away through the rain, and it feels bloody good to finally be powerful instead of always so damn helpless. But then something snaps back in his head, like a rubber band. A feeling, perhaps, or a memory.
Draco still looks at him. Up close, Harry notices how worn his clothes are. Even the green outdoor jacket has dark edges on the sleeves and is definitely two sizes too big for his slender frame.
"No," Harry finally replies, shaking his head. "I don't do that. I'm not like you." -

Summary
Scorpius had always collected happy moments like other children collected chocolate frog cards. An unexpected smile on someone's face. A bag of fizzing Wissbies that his mother had hidden in his trunk and he stumbled upon much later by accident. A bird that sat down next to him, looked at him and then flew on, and of course Albus. Almost every happy moment of his life were somehow linked to him. It could have all been so good - if only it wasn’t for Harry Potter.
Or: a story about how some people still glow in the darkness themselves.Series

Summary
But then the war had ended. Voldemort had been defeated and he, Harry Potter, had had to face what he never expected to experience: Growing up. And as he lay next to Ginny in a far too soft bed, where they kissed tenderly and he caressed her baby belly, the fantasy in him faded more and more. It was just a dark secret, that he shared with no one, that he only pulled out of the dusty corners of his memory very rarely, when he was alone in the shower, and gave himself over to it.
Everything could have been so good, if only they hadn't met again. It had been the day he had taken Albus to the Hogwarts Express for the first time. Draco also had his son with him and his beautiful wife.Series
