“Bit early for some exercise, Potter.”
The other blinked, posture rigid before he all but deflated, wand arm falling limp to the side as he wiped a hand across his forehead. Despite the relaxed stance, Draco didn’t miss how Potter kept a tight hold on his wand.
“Malfoy,” Potter gasped, struggling to catch his breath, blinking rapidly as the wind picked up speed. “What are you doing here?”

Summary
“I bought a house,” Harry says. It is an early April morning and he’s standing at the gates of Malfoy Manor, drizzle sticking his hair to his forehead and dripping down his neck.
He’s lying.
Harry hasn’t bought a house. He’s bought an abandoned sanatorium at the foot of a Swiss mountain. An abandoned sanatorium that’s both magical in nature and steadfastly refusing to bond with Harry.
When Harry buys an abandoned sanatorium on impulse, he can think of only one person capable of helping him with the bonding ritual: his ex, Draco Malfoy, who he hasn't seen in five years.

Bookmarker's Notes
Really beautifully written fic with Harry and Draco reconnecting after a difficult break up years before. Harry's POV was wonderful, and I really appreciated the way both their past and present relationship unfolded. There's angst here, but the kind that feels satisfying because it's messy and real and you can feel the love of these two shining throughout the prose. Just lovely!

Um...I liked it. Not the best. Harry's chaotic life was interesting. There were just enough changes that the usual suspects were a bit more interesting.

“So who is it? The Curse-breaker and the Veela? The head of the Department of Magical Transportation?” Draco’s eyes lit up. “The Dragon-tamer?” Now that particular Weasley could be fun.“No. It’s Harry,” Hermione said, the name exploding out of her in a rush.
Draco blinked, stunned into silence.
“Harry,” he said, after he recovered his faculties. “You want me to break up Harry and the Weaselette?!"
