Summary
It was a long shot—an impossibly long shot—but it was all he had.
Harry lunged for the photo, his bloodied nose dripping crimson onto the paper as he scrambled for something to write with. But Vernon had locked away all of Harry’s things to prevent him from contacting anyone. In desperation, Harry smeared his blood across the photo with trembling fingers, scrawling three words:
Please help me.
He signed it with a shaky, almost illegible ‘Harry’ before stumbling to Hedwig’s cage. He flung the door open and shoved the photo into her talons, his breath coming in sharp, uneven gasps. Vernon’s angry bellows grew louder as he forced the door open, splinters of wood flying into the room.
“T-take it to Professor Snape!” Harry rasped, barely able to speak through the panic and exhaustion.
Hedwig let out a distressed hoot as Harry squeezed her through the narrow bars of the window. He turned just as Vernon burst into the room, his face purple with fury, his breathing ragged.

Summary
After Ron and Hermione split up, Harry decided he’d had enough of Grimmauld Place and its charming ambiance of death and despair, so he found a flat in North London.
Draco, haunted by the echoing silence of the Manor, also signed a lease on a flat in North London.
Unfortunately for them, it was the same flat.
Even more unfortunate: their landlord was MIA, the Magical Tenancy Board was a bureaucratic nightmare, and Hermione had appointed herself their Mediator.
Everything was fine. Probably.-
Or: Harry and Draco fall in love over sharing tea, scones, and an escalating schedule of totally platonic dinners that definitely aren’t dates. (Just don’t ask their friends for their opinions.)

Summary
When Harry had watched his Godfather, the only man with whom he had ever thought that he might have a chance at a real home life, pass into the veil in the Department of Mysteries, Harry had felt as if a part of himself died along with Sirius.
With nowhere else to go and no real hope for his future, Harry is sent to spend yet another bleak summer with the Dursleys on Privet Drive. Things simply couldn't be worse. Or could they?
A series of minor hiccups and massive devastations lead Harry right into what he would consider to be the worst situation of his life, but that unlikely scenario may turn out to be exactly what he's needed all along.

From the top of the Astronomy Tower, the stars always look brighter. Funny, how Harry can’t seem to find them at all anymore.
