   Summary

   “You’re not Harry Potter,” Malfoy told him, pronouncing it like a title, like a proper noun that was not a person’s name. “Just as I’m not Draco Malfoy.” He licked his lips, feeling how thin and fragile the space between them had just become. He spread his fingers along the edge of the table, knowing that in another world, one where he’d learned tenderness and courage, he would slide one hand across and clasp it over Harry’s now. He didn't. He just said, “I used to be. You may never have been.”

    

   Harry is given what should have been a boring routine bureaucratic assignment. If it hadn't taken him to Maine. If it hadn't forced a reunion with Draco Malfoy.

   Now nothing seems boring or routine anymore.
