Rating: PG
Contains (Highlight to view): *An almost kiss? I'll leave that up to you. :)*

Notes: Decided to interpret these prompts broadly, and these two boys caressing each other was the first thing that came to mind. Happy New Year, and I hope you enjoy! Also, Draco has a bad ass look (but I like it).
Summary: Harry and Draco are at Seamus' flat for a new year's eve party and end up having a few drinks. For once, they're getting on with each other and start feeling sleepy as the night goes on. It's only when they move into a quieter room that Harry remembers Draco's wish of wanting to lie next to someone and hold them. Harry tries to make it happen, even though it doesn't quite go the way he imagined.
