Impossible to fathom, though, that Muggle women did this to themselves intentionally, and without benefit of pain medication.

Harry is sad and lonely, whilst Draco is cold, and wishes people didn't hate him quite so much. Alone they are nothing, but together they have a chance to give each other what they truly crave. ``Slash.

If Harry had believed that defeating Voldemort would bring an end to his troubles, he would have been sadly mistaken. Fortunately, he was never that optimistic.

Like the fact that he's gay, and in love with his womanising best friend. And financing an underground resistance movement or two. And far more powerful than he dare let anyone suspect. But Fate hasn't finished with Harry Potter yet. Voldemort had a secret of his own. Harry hasn't uncovered that one yet, but when he does, it'll change everything.
