Summary
Draco Malfoy has known pressure since he was born.There were expectations placed on him the moment he was conceived. He's never felt particularly in control. But he's never known what it's like to be truly out of control until the summer before fifth year when his Father deems it necessary to start using the Imperius curse on him as punishment and as a means of getting him to behave.
After returning to Hogwarts, Draco is plagued by nightmares where he can't speak for himself, can't act for himself, can't breathe for himself. So, in a moment of desperation, he runs to the one person he knows of who can get out from under the grips of the Imperius.
Harry Potter.
(And over the course of their lessons, they fall in love, of course.)
