author's notes: written for 100quills@lj and the charming severkarogueova, this is the second in the white series. I intend for there to be more.
The next time Harry sees Draco Malfoy, there's snow on the ground and Christmas shoppers are weaving their way through Diagon Alley.
Harry's struck by the contrast of the man he's watching to the Malfoy he thought he knew. His absolute certainty that Malfoy is a nasty, arrogant bastard is being overlain with the image of this quiet wizard who's been carefully winding through the crowd, politely deferring to others. Currently, Malfoy's stopped in front of the Quidditch shop, gazing into the window with a slightly wistful air. While he peruses the wares, he absently turns up the collar of his coat and pulls it more tightly around himself.
It's only when he notices that Malfoy's gloved fingers seem stiff and uncooperative that Harry remembers the fading flowers at the cemetery and the Ministry's restrictions on Malfoy. He's a bit bewildered at his sudden burning curiosity as to why Malfoy's still in England and how long he's planning to stay.
It takes a surprising amount of willpower to keep Harry from casting a warming charm on Malfoy when he shivers slightly and ducks his head against the lightly falling snow.
It takes even more to keep Harry from following him and asking him to tea.
