Summary: “Malfoy tilts his head back, locks eyes with Harry, and he’s so open, so eager to comfort that Harry wants to punch him till he bleeds. Instead, he leans down, presses a tender kiss along the freckled bridge of Malfoy’s too pointy nose. Malfoy’s just like Ginny, in a way. So naïve and trusting, so willing to believe the perfect man Harry will never be.”
Warning(s): some explicit Harry/Ginny
This story incredibly powerful. It's about Harry's painful journey of awareness of his sexuality.
It's so very poignant because he loves his wife, he loves Ginny, and he so desperately wants to be normal, he so badly wants this fantasy of the perfect life, with the perfect wife and beautiful children to be true, and realising he can't have that, that he won't give that to Ginny, to himself, it's painful, so painful.
But it's such a gorgeous story, the writing is so visceral you're going to feel it as you read, and as much as it hurts you're going to love it, and you're going to love Harry for facing it, too.
