To Come Back

For the @drarrymicrofic prompt: evenfall.

Harry returns as the edges of the day melt into night. Draco can hear the crunch of his well-worn boots on the grass, and it makes his stomach flip, the sound like a song he'd not heard in so long he thought he'd made it up. The footsteps stop in the open doorway, but Draco doesn't turn around. He stands at the counter, palms flat against the surface. He breathes; fights the way his senses sing with bone-deep awareness. He's back.

Harry clears his throat. "Sorry I'm late," he says.

Draco doesn't turn around. "You've got a lot of nerve, Potter."

"I know."

It's the crack in Harry's voice that gets Draco to turn around, and what he sees nearly knocks the breath from his chest; Harry standing there, the sight so familiar it's as if he'd never left, except for the damning suitcase slung over his shoulder. He's in the same stone-washed jeans he insists on wearing in the summer, despite the heat, and an old t-shirt they'd gotten at a little shop nearly a year ago; it hugs his frame a bit too tight now, but in ways that only accentuate his arms and broad shoulders. Harry's eyes are so wide and sincere that Draco's knees nearly buckle.

"Two years, we were together," Draco presses on. "Then we had one fight, which is hardly new for us, except I woke up the next morning to an empty cabin, and only a three-sentence note. Now I've spent nearly four months alone, and your opening line when you deign to come back is 'Sorry I'm late?'"

"I know," Harry sighed. "But I can explain. If you let me."

Draco studied him for a moment, silent. Then, he crossed his arms. "I'm listening."
