It couldn't have taken more than 15 minutes for Harry to shower, shave and dress himself for bed. Uncharacteristically, Harry had taken a moment to dry his hair as best as he could, having in mind that somebody else would have to suffer through damp bedding if he didn't; but with only a towel at hand he gave up a couple of minutes in.<br/>His hair was still cool to the touch as he finally exited the bathroom. He was wearing a mis matched set of pajamas - dark blue sweatpants and a souvenir shirt from a visit to Gulliver's World - and crossed the apartment barefooted to check that both windows and doors were properly closed. Finding nothing out of the ordinary, Harry finally turned off the last light in the living room, and pushed open his bedroom door.<br/>Amazingly, Draco's state of undress wasn't the first thing Harry had noticed. Immediately overwhelmed with a feeling of unconditional love, Harry couldn't recall ever having seen Draco so stunning. Seeing the other in his bedroom, in his bed with a book almost had Harry's heart bursting with joy.<br/>Then, secondly, Harry noticed Draco's bared shoulders. In the half light of the reading lamp, the strip of what was visible Draco's pale skin over the edge of the duvet looked almost iridescent. Harry's breath got caught on words he never managed to say out loud, fully realising the immense amount of trust that laid behind Draco's decision to sleep shirtless.<br/>Harry turned slightly to close the bedroom door, before finally tugging the duvet aside and creeping into bed next to Draco. As the distance between them shortened, Harry's smile only grew; by the time he was on his knees next to Draco, he was grinning from ear to ear.<br/>Placing a hand on Draco's wrist, Harry insistingly forced the book away from the other's field of vision.<br/>"No reading past bedtime, babe," he muttered, a breathy laugh, before leaning in to place a kiss on Draco's cheek. When his lips parted from Draco's skin, Harry continued with a grin. "I've already got one kid in this house trying to sneak books to bed, don't need another."
