Great new chapter. I can't wait for the next one. Please post again soon!

Awesome! *does happy dance* Man, I feel like a complete sadist for saying this, but I'm glad everything is fnally going to shit! Is this the last arch in the story or will there be another one? I can't wait to see how you pull this together. Draco's got one helluva lesson to learn, that's for sure. I wonder where Harry Apparated to...

Happy Writing!

I just have a question...I started to reread Half Blood Prince today, and since you haven't made any disclaimers that this doesn't not follow HBP, Amelia bones was murdered that summer. So I'm not sure if you didn't just type a disclaimer or had an overlook like I do all the time, but sorry to rain on your parade.

GBW (great big wow)

That was intense. It was hard to witness Draco's malevolence, even though he thought is intentions were good.
Oh that sneaky, sneaky Narcissa (boy, she sure got the right name, didn't she?)
The fallout, oh no, the fallout.
Quite the cliffhanger!

Whew! I had a lot of catching up to do, didn't I?

I have to tell you, the scenes involving Harry and Draco at Hogwarts had me in tears. I'm not sure why exactly. It may have had something to do with knowing and understanding homesickness on a very personal level or the "People die so life is important" thing or simply how beautiful and touching it is to really get that home is where the heart is. And home for Harry has always been Hogwarts.

I also love that Harry and Draco falling in love isn't based on sex, 'needing' one one another, or Harry's need for a shoulder to cry on. It was something that grew from discovering eachother, understaing what makes the other happy, and most importantly, time. An evolved, delicate thing that really takes the time to explore human emotion and the soul's ability to grieve and heal.

The dinner party was nice touch. I love the grown up Dean. This line made me laugh aloud: //

Sooo need chapter 50! What will Narcissa say to him?

This took me by surprise.
From Hogwarts to a dinner party...I had to adjust a bit.
Okay, now there are possible friends, maybe nasty tricks (Gloria and Narcissa),
open hostility (Snape) and a revelation.
I am on the edge of my seat....

"then they both smiled, and for a moment Harry felt as if he stood in sunlight."
I love your writing.
The falling in love realizations were both wonderful, by the way.

Harry is really set up for a huge fall with Draco. It breaks my heart especially since he's doing so much better emotionally. I suppose that you never know how far you've come until you're tested. Awkward dinner party but a different mix of people and what happened to Seamus?
