伏地魔死后
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Draco scowled down at the blank sheet of parchment in front of him. He twirled his quill between his fingers, wondering how best to phrase his question. Good manners dictated that he should begin every letter with a short lead-in, but then again, this was Potter he was writing to. Draco doubted "manners" was even a word in Potter's dictionary.
A knock came at his door.
"Draco? Are you finished?" called his mother's voice.
"Yes, Mother. I'll be out in a minute."
Draco waited until the sound of her footsteps retreating faded away. Then, with a sigh, he dipped his quill in his inkpot and pressed it to the paper.

Potter,
I need my wand back. When can you meet?
D. Malfoy
P.S. I suppose I should thank you for yesterday. I know you didn't do it because you care, but my family and I still appreciate the assistance you lent us. As much as I hate to admit it, we probably wouldn't have gotten off if it hadn't been for you.

I'm going Diagon Alley on Friday. How about in front of Florean Fortescue's at noon? And I do care. Your mother saved my life.

Wednesday, May 20, 1998
I do hope you know the store is closed. Fortescue is dead.
D. Malfoy

I hate you, Malfoy.

The feeling is mutual.

**** off, Potter. Do you make it a habit to track and gloat over all of my personal failures? Does it give you an inner sense of satisfaction to know I've finally soiled my family's name beyond repair? Yes, I'm going to bloody marry her, how can I not?
Just leave me the **** alone.
- 20 -
23/07/2004
What, like you haven't been there to witness all of mine? I'm not trying to make you feel worse, Malfoy. I just wanted to tell you that I hope everything works out. Astoria seems nice enough. Marriage isn't so bad, you know.
H. Potter
- 21 -
19/10/2004
Malfoy,
Congratulations on the wedding. I saw the pictures in the Prophet. Astoria looked beautiful; you can't even tell she's already five months along from the photo. You weren't so bad yourself.
H. Potter
- 22 -
Thursday, February 24, 2005
Potter,
I'm only writing this because my mother insisted that I inform you of the birth of my son. Seeing as she's finally speaking to me again, I have no intentions of displeasing her by not doing as she requested.
His name is Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy. He was born in the early morning on February 22nd. He and Astoria are both doing well so far.
Don't bother replying to this letter.
D. Malfoy

- 23 -
25/02/2005
Malfoy,
I can't believe you named the poor thing Scorpius Hyperion. I hope you and your wife are both aware he's going to be teased mercilessly when he starts school.
H. Potter

Potter,
My son is not a thing.
D. Malfoy
- 25 -
27/02/2005
Sorry, I didn't mean to imply your son's an object. But it's nice to see you defending him. Looks like you'll turn out to be a decent father after all.
H. Potter

Ginny's pregnant again.
H. Potter

Friday, March 11, 2005
Potter,
If you were hoping I would congratulate you for reimpregnating the Weasley bint, you thought wrong. Though I suppose it IS a praiseworthy feat in the sense that not many people would have the courage to copulate with a Weasley more than once...
I must admit I'm disappointed in you, Potter. I expected Weasley and Granger to have a small colony of freckly, bushy-haired terrors by the time you had your first, but now it looks like events are progressing in the opposite direction.
D. Malfoy
- 29 -
13/03/2005
Very funny, Malfoy. That's not why I wrote you. I need your advice.
I'm not sure if I'm ready for another child.
H. Potter

- 30 -
Monday, March 14, 2005
For the record, I spat out a mouthful of tea all over the front of my robe when I read your note, so expect the cleaning bill within a week or so. Anyway, why in Merlin's name do you need my advice? Why can't you ask one of the members of your fanclub?
D. Malfoy
P.S. If you're going to cross something out, do it right. Half-arsed strikes conceal nothing.
- 31 -
14/03/2005
No one wants to hear my problems. They think my life is perfect.
I don't want to disappoint them.
H. Potter

Tuesday, February 15, 2005
Oh, very well. But only because I despise you and want to pay you back for kicking me when I was down.

Meet me at the Leaky Cauldron at 6 pm tomorrow.

Malfoy,
Ron and Hermione are throwing me a party for my 25th birthday. I told them they didn't need to, but they insisted. It looks like it's going to be formal, with a bunch of stuffy Ministry officials and fancy foreign food, so I was wondering if you'd like to come. If so, I've included an invitation. You can bring Astoria if you'd like.
H. Potter
- 36 -
Thursday, July 14, 2005
Potter,
What makes you think I would want to go to your birthday party and mingle with your friends?
The only reason why I'm considering going is because Astoria keeps whinging about how I never take her to high profile social events. She wants to meet your wife, for some ridiculous reason. I told her Weasley's going to be on bedrest.
D. Malfoy

Monday, August 1, 2005
Last night was a mistake.
- 38 -
01/02/2005
I'm so ****ing sorry, Malfoy. I wasn't thinking straight. I had too many glasses of champagne and... ****, it's been so long since Ginny let me touch her because she hates her body when she's pregnant, and there were all those bloody people trying to talk to me, and I just wanted to get out of there.
I know right now you probably hate me more than you've ever hated me, but I hope you accept my apology. It'll never happen again, I swear. It meant nothing. Please don't tell Ginny. I'm not gay.
Harry

Monday, May 18, 2009 《--4年以后
I am.

- 42 -
20/06/2009
Malfoy,
Why am I not surprised that you only gathered the guts to write me that letter when you knew I might not live to read it?
I don't really know what to say. I guess I'm mostly relieved that I didn't offend you that night. I mean, not that it matters what your sexual orientation is, because what I did was still wrong, but I'm hoping the fact that you're writing to me again means you've forgiven me. And if it helps, I have no problem with your being gay. It's just... I'm sorry, but I have to ask: Why do you stay with Astoria if you don't love her?
How have you been? I can't believe you moved to France. What made you decide to do it? I thought you enjoyed your life here. The people at the Prophet sure seemed sorry about your resignation.
Well, regardless of your reasons for leaving, I hope you're enjoying yourself. Ginny wants to take a vacation there, but it's hard to find time between her games and practices, my job (yes, I'm still an Auror after what happened... I appreciate your concern for my family, but I've learned from my mistakes), and the kids. Maybe we'll go for the hols. If we do, I'll let you know.
Happy belated birthday, by the way.
H. Potter

Monday, June 29, 2009
Potter,
For your information, the wizarding world as a whole is tolerant of homosexuality. We're nothing like those disgusting Muggles of yours, with their savage treatment of gays. So I never expected you to have a problem, especially considering one of your best friends is a Mudbl Muggle-born.
As for the reasons why I married Astoria, go ask said Muggle-born friend. I'm sure she'll be able to enlighten you on the intricacies of marriages of convenience.
France is much more exciting, much more alive than Britain. I prefer the climate and the people. It's difficult relearning the language, but I'd much rather be here than in London, trudging through puddles on my way to interview yet another pointless celebrity. Unlike you, I like change in my life.
Don't bring your wife here. She already has enough freckles.
D. Malfoy
P.S. I'm glad yo Shame you didn't die. I rather would have enjoyed preparing a funeral speech.
- 44 -
08/07/2009
Oh, I never thought about it that way. I guess it makes sense, since Muggles don't care about blood.
I asked Hermione, but I still can't wrap my mind around the concept. Why would you marry someone if you don't love them? Marriage doesn't give you power or status. And what if you fall in love with someone else? Then you'd be stuck in a relationship you could have avoided. Seems a bit stupid, really.
H. Potter
P.S. Speech? Yeah, right. You'd probably be off celebrating if I died./strike
- 45 -
Sunday, July 18, 2009
Of course you wouldn't understand, Potter. You Gryffindors idealise blind monogamy You never think about what's convenient or resourceful, because you let your feelings take over common sense.
Marriage is important because it provides you with a cover. When you're married, you're not watched as closely. You're free to live your life out of the spotlight. Furthermore, if you marry for convenience, you'll never have reason to divorce. It's a lot less messy than tying the knot with whomever you feel attracted to at the moment. Marriage is also a sign of respectability and maturity another reason why you don't understand it.
D. Malfoy

10/11/2009
Malfoy,
Hermione told me there was an article about your apothecary in the The Practical Potioneer today. Apparently it's well-known, even over here. I hope you aren't selling anything illegal.
I clipped out the article and sent it with the owl, just in case you were interested in reading it.
Oh, and I saw your dad the other day. I asked about you, and he got a bit shirty with me. More so than usual, I mean. Said I had no right to enquire after you, and then refused to elaborate. Do you know what he meant by it?
H. Potter

Tuesday, November 24, 2009
Potter,
We're not best mates, so unless you have a better reason to contact me than wanting to tell me about your daily activities, don't bother. And no, I haven't the slightest idea what my father meant by it. He never liked you much.
D. Malfoy

F*ck you, Malfoy.

Happy birthday, Malfoy. You're officially old.
H. Potter
- 51 -
Saturday, July 31, 2010
Potter,
For the sake of formality, happy birthday. My wife baked you chocolate biscuits for some reason. Scorpius insisted on helping out. They'll probably be stale by the time you receive them, but I'm sure you value the thought above all else.
And I am NOT old. If I'm old, you are too, which means it's time for you to finally get another job.
D. Malfoy
- 52 -
03/11/2010
Malfoy,
Ginny officially announced her retirement to the Harpies a week ago. She's already been offered a job as the senior Quidditch correspondent for the Prophet, which means she'll have more time now.
We've decided to take a family vacation to France for the holidays. Robards has given me a much more flexible schedule now that I've got a few years under my belt, and the kids are old enough to travel. Any suggestions for good vacation spots?
H. Potter

If you come to Cannes, I'll kill you.
D. Malfoy
- 54 -
19/12/2010
Malfoy,
We're in Cannes. The city really is beautiful. We took advantage of the sunshine yesterday and went to the Boulevard de la Croisette (is that how you spell it?), but it was still too cold for the kids to go near the water.
I was wondering if you'd fancy having a drink with me tomorrow. Ginny wants to go back to the Croisette and do some shopping, but I'm not too fond of that kind of stuff. I'd rather have a look around the wizarding side of town. How about it?
H. Potter
- 55 -
Monday, December 20, 2010
I can't believe you actually came here.
D. Malfoy
- 56 -
21/12/2010
Avoiding me isn't going to work, Malfoy. The hotel we're staying at is run by wizards. They gave me directions to your apothecary. By the time you read this, I'll be standing in front of you.


- 57 -
03/01/2011
I need to see you again.
- 58 -
Tuesday, January 4, 2011
You've got a wife, you horny fauck.
- 59 -
04/01/2011
Malfoy, please. I'm leaving on Thursday. Just one more time.
- 60 -
15/01/2011
Malfoy,
I'm never going to take another vacation again. The office looked like someone set loose a colony of nifflers in it. Reports everywhere, misassigned cases, malfunctioning equipment... Christ, what a nightmare. At least I'm not responsible for most of it. Oh, and to top it all off, Lily caught some kind of bug while we were on vacation, so now I've got to come home to crying and screaming every night.
I've been thinking... you should come back to Britain. You could move your apothecary here; we've a shortage of good ones. And we'd be able to see each other more often.
I miss you. I know you won't believe me, but I do.
Harry
- 61 -
Monday, January 31, 2011
Potter,
Do you know how ridiculous you sound right now? Forget the last two weeks. Bury them away with your other skeletons. We f*cked a couple of times. We're not in a relationship.
You. Have. A. Wife.
Draco
- 62 -
08/02/2011
Malfoy,
I know, and I tried, I really did. I just can't... f*ck and forget. I want to talk to you face-to-face, even if it's only to sort out this mess.
I love Ginny, but...
I can't stop thinking about you.
Harry
P.S. You changed your signature?
P.P.S. If you receive this letter by the 21st, tell Scorpius I say happy birthday.

- 65 -
28/05/2011
Happy birthday, Malfoy. There are a million things I want to say to you, but I'd rather say them to your face, so I'll wait until I see you again.
Harry
- 66 -
18/12/2011
Malfoy,
Happy Christmas. I hope you and your family are doing well. Ginny mentioned our vacation last year this morning, and the first thing that came to mind was your face when you sucked me off the second night we met up in Cannes. I felt so guilty that I had to excuse myself and leave the room. I went to the bathroom and wanked thinking about you.
What a way to kick off the holidays, huh?
Harry
- 67 -
Friday, January 13, 2012
Don't do this to me, Potter.
- 68 -
21/01/2012
Do what? I'm only telling you how I feel.
Come back. I'll leave Ginny for you.
Harry
- 69 -
Wednesday, February 29, 2012
Shut up. Stop it. Those are empty words, Potter, and you know it. You're lovesick because you've finally discovered what it's like to be with a man. Anything has to be better than your dull, Weasley-infested life.
When you look back at these years, you're going to laugh your arse off. Face it you belong with Weasley. If not the female, then one of the males, though I shudder at the thought.
Do you want to know the truth, Potter? I'm going to tell it to you right now, and make sure you read this carefully, because I'm only going to say it once. I want you. But I stand by what I said several letters ago. There is no future ahead of us if we decide to give up everything.
Draco
- 70 -
08/03/2012
What's "everything" if none of it means anything? I can't live the life you live, always having to do things for convenience or show or reputation. I don't want to have to pretend that every encounter never happened, and I don't want you to be my dirty little secret. I'll divorce Ginny. Regardless of what you do, I can't be with her if my heart's not in our marriage. I may not love her like I used to, but I still do love her enough to tell her the truth.
Harry
- 71 -
Thursday, March 15, 2012
What, do you love me now? Don't be absurd. We had a fling. You're only attracted to me because I'm an outlet from your boring, everyday life. As usual, you like the thrill of breaking all the rules. Believe me, Potter, that thrill's only temporary. Rules exist for a reason.
You can go ahead and divorce the Weaselette, but I'm not going to leave my wife for you, Potter. You know my feelings on marriage. I refuse to tag another scandal onto my name.
Draco

- 72 -
Thursday, August 30, 2012
Potter, you utter moron. Why did you do it? If you're trying to teach me a lesson for something I've done to you in the past by putting your soon-to-be miserable life on my conscience, you've succeeded. Now please, just go back to her. The article I read did mention that she said she wished things hadn't turned out the way they did.
And... why didn't you just tell them the truth if you're so intent on ruining my life? Merlin, you're such a ****ing Gryffindor. You never THINK about anything you do.
I hate you so much.
Draco
- 73 -
28/09/2012
Draco,
What I told them WAS the truth. I'm gay. I like men. How is that a lie? And I'm not going back to Ginny. We're friends now, and that's a hell of a lot better than the marriage we had.
It's your move now, Draco. Can you keep denying yourself what you want for the rest of your life? Or will you suck it up and be a man for the first time in your life? Honesty won't kill you.
Harry
- 74 -
Friday, June 17, 2015
Blaise will only hurt you.
D. Malfoy
- 75 -
Thursday, July 7, 2015
I'm sure I'll survive if he does. Besides, he can't be that bad if you trusted him enough to name him as Scorpius's godfather.
He loves me, and he's not ashamed of it. That's all anyone can hope for, right?
Harry
- 76 -
Friday, July 15, 2015
I see you finally changed your timestamp. It's a very fitting upgrade, considering your recent promotion to Head Auror. Congratulations.
D. Malfoy
- 77 -
Monday, October 5, 2015
Potter,
Did your son really make the Gryffindor Quidditch team? He's a bit young, isn't he?
I suppose he's only following in the footsteps of his father.
D. Malfoy
- 78 -
Wednesday, October 29, 2015
Yes. I'm very proud of him.
How is it that you're managing to stay updated on my life?
Harry
- 79 -
Tuesday, November 17, 2015
The papers. You're quite the celebrity over here. The Boy Who Lived, saviour of the world, youngest Head Auror in history, celebrity representative of the gay community, and now father of a Hogwarts Quidditch star... the French like to stay updated on your glamorous life.
D. Malfoy
- 80 -
Thursday, August 4, 2016
Malfoy,
Blaise heard from one his friends that you're back in town. He wants to drop by and see how you're doing. Where are you staying? And, just out of curiosity, why are you back? Isn't Scorpius set to start Beauxbatons soon?
Harry

- 81 -
Sunday, August 7, 2016
Potter,
We came back because we decided it would be better for Scorpius if he attended Hogwarts. Right now we're staying at our old manor in Kent, but Astoria wishes to move soon.
Tell Blaise he may come see me after I visit my parents tomorrow.
D. Malfoy
- 82 -
Friday, September 2, 2016
Malfoy,
It was nice seeing you again at King's Cross yesterday. You and Astoria both look well, and Scorpius has grown into a good-looking kid. I almost didn't recognise him. Hey, you reckon he and Al will be friends? That'd be something for the other kids in their year to write home about... a Potter and a Malfoy, best mates.
I tried to catch you after the train left, but you were gone by then. I wanted to ask you if you'd like to go for a drink at the Leaky Cauldron when you have some free time. Hannah Abbott well, Longbottom now took over as the landlady while you were gone. We might be able to get ourselves a few free drinks if we're nice enough.
And just because I know what you're thinking, I won't try anything. I promise.
Harry
- 83 -
Monday, September 5, 2016
Potter,
Well, well, well. How does it make you feel to know that a Potter has finally graced Slytherin house with his presence? I imagine his brother must loathe him. I'll tell Scorpius to be nice to Albus, just in case.
I'm rather busy these days. I've got my sights set on a vacant site in Diagon Alley, but the bastard who owns it is making the transaction unreasonably difficult. However... I suppose I can fit you into my schedule. You're paying, though.
D. Malfoy
P.S. Why weren't you with Blaise on Thursday?
- 84 -
Tuesday, September 13, 2016
How's this Friday? I can meet you at the Leaky Cauldron after work.
Blaise and I split up a few weeks ago. I thought you knew.
Harry
- 85 -
Wednesday, November 18, 2016
Malfoy,
I know you can't meet today, so hopefully the bloke at the counter will give this to you when you're back. Al wants to know if Scorpius can stay over for the holidays. Let me know when I see you on Saturday.
Harry
- 86 -
Wednesday, December 23, 2016
Potter,
Astoria wants to know if you can come over for Christmas dinner. You can bring the kids and whatshisface the one you're shagging now.
How is Scorpius doing?
D. Malfoy
- 87 -
Thursday, December 24, 2016
Malfoy,
Sure. I was going to go to the Burrow as usual, but Scorpius wants Al to see his place, so I guess I'll come along. Scorpius is fine. He and Al insisted on de-gnoming the garden yesterday. Before you throw a fit, he didn't ruin his robes, nor did he catch a cold. He seemed to enjoy it, actually. Don't be surprised if he asks you for a garden of gnomes for Christmas.
Michael can't make it. He's got other plans. And for your information, he and I aren't just shagging; we're dating.
Harry
- 88 -
Wednesday, February 1, 2017
f*ck, I'm having the worst day ever. Michael wants to break up with me, and two of my best Aurors have gotten the ridiculous notion into their heads that the department needs to strike. I'm going to stop by the apothecary after closing hours, okay?
Oh, and I've got a list of ingredients George Weasley needs, so I'm sending that with the owl. If you have any of these, could you gather them so that I can pick them up later?
Harry


- 89 -
Monday, July 31, 2017
Potter,
Wake up, it's your birthday. I had better be the first one to give you a present. You have to come downstairs to pick it up, though. I'm waiting by the fence. And hurry the hell up; I have to go open the shop soon.
Draco
- 90 -
Wednesday, August 16, 2017
The unannounced visits to my home need to stop, Potter. I think Astoria suspects something. She keeps giving me funny looks.
Draco
- 91 -
Friday, August 18, 2017
Why? We're not doing anything wrong. With all due respect, Astoria can go f*** herself if she has a problem with it.
Harry
- 92 -
Saturday, August 19, 2017
Potter, don't you dare talk about my wife like that.
- 93 -
Tuesday, August 22, 2017
Oh, shut it, Malfoy. Will I see you at King's Cross again on the first?
- 94 -
Sunday, August 27, 2017
Yes.- 95 -
Monday, August 28, 2017
Okay, good. I need to see you afterwards. If you're so worried about your wife, I'll meet you by the bathroom.
Harry
