Description
Can you look beyond me? Beyond my past? I'm drowning in lies, and I need you to save me. Harry falls hard and fast for the small, petite blonde, it's a fierce attraction, but there is an even fiercer war waging inside him. The choice to stay loyal to his cause, or to protect a small, blonde Gryffindor from death's gaze. In truth, it seems not like a difficult decision, given where his heart lies, but what of his mother and father? They only ever wanted him to see reason, what was best for him. Draco struggles everyday to live his life. No one knows how to handle depression properly, but having dealt with it nearly all his life, there can only be so much reprieve before it settles on his shoulders again, his burden to bear. He fights to prove himself not weak, to not be stuck under such a label. He doesn't want to be perceived as fragile to everyone. Doing so only seems to cause a rift between him and the one person he depends on, the one person he really does love; Harry. Draco and Harry need each other more than ever, but why can't they see that?
