Summary: Draco Malfoy, wide-eyed and pale and in a decidedly ragged shirt, was crouched next to the pile of whatever the dragon had been eating.
Harry threw himself to a halt and yelled, “Merlin, how many times do I have to save your life?”

This story, oh my god, so amazing! I can't believe it took me this long to find it and read it! It's basically about a dragon. Not just a dragon, the dragon Harry, Ron and Hermione rode in their escape from Gringotts.

It's almost one year after the war and the dragon has been roaming all over the country. Harry feels responsible for the creature and goes looking for it. What he didn't expect to find was Draco with the dragon, who is also on the run, by the way. Erm, Draco that is.

Of course Harry is immediately intrigued. What is Draco Malfoy doing with the dragon?

Well, it turns out he's been taking care of her. As in, protecting her and feeing her and basically keeping her safe. You remember the dragon was sick, traumatised and basically abused living all those years underground in Gringotts, right? She was in bad shape, and Draco's been taking care of her. Naturally Harry wants to get involved, and Draco, though none too happy about it, reluctantly agrees to let Harry see the dragon.

I'm going to move fast-forward to: eventually they start sleeping together, and it's just such a mess because they are the absolute worst to communicate. They fight and argue and bicker all the time. And then there are all the legal problems they face: Draco (and his family – also on the run) aren't cleared, the dragon is wanted by the Ministry, Draco is super attached to his illegal dragon, and Harry is confused and super attached to Draco.

But it's so much more than that, because they are living with the trauma of the war, there's a sense of hurt/comfort in so many relationships (Harry has so many people living with him at Grimmauld Place), Bi!Harry, the characterisations in the story are amazing, like, omfg, truly amazing, and then there are all the feels. Awesome fic.
