There is an unfinished fic that I started and almost finished over 3 years ago. But I never managed to complete it. This drabble is unrelated, but is starting from the same prompt and prompter.

Maybe one day, [livejournal.com profile] anathema91, you’ll get your wish for a truly unique and appropriately smexy fic. Until now, Draco is still trying to come up with something imaginative...


Title: Tried so hard
Rating: PG
Word Count: 100
Prompt: Written for [livejournal.com profile] anathema91 who asked for Harry/Draco - Draco gives Harry a rather imaginative/unique birthday present

He had to get it right. Harry was never impressed by something flashy or rare. And while he was always sufficiently appreciative, he never seemed that thrilled. Draco had even tried Muggle gifts, but he knew he never got them quite right, either.

Maybe next year, he thought sadly. His practice had been swamped, and Draco had barely remembered it was Harry’s birthday until a few days before the 31st. None of his lists and ideas got him anywhere.

Eventually, he gave up and decided on breakfast in bed, not realizing Harry would consider it the best birthday gift ever.

By next year, Draco will have thought of the perfect gift! And maybe by then, the full fic will be done too ^_^

Don't feel too bad for Draco - Harry made sure to show his full appreciation ;)

Awww, so sweet. Poor Draco selling himself short, and of course Harry would love that gift, cuz it's just so Harry to be thrilled by the simple things and so Draco to not realise how thrilling those things can be.

Thanks hon!

Also, after seeing the date on this request, I now don't feel bad about not having written [livejournal.com profile] sesheta_66's birthday drabble request from last year! LOL I totes forgot about this. You rock.

This, of course, is the prequel to the unique and pr0ny gift Harry receives next year which I need to dig out and dust off

Glad you liked it!!!
