Perhaps the night would've been perfect had it ended right then and there, when we were successfully crashed my a second house. The Gryffindors quickly dispersed and began drinking and dancing with the crowd. I noticed Harry watching George do some sort of announcement while continually being handed drinks by the person mixing them and downing them as fast as he could. It didn't surprise me that Harry was so keen to drink - the whole chosen one business seemed like a mess and he didn't seem to have his fun at the ball.
"TOP TEN REASONS IVE DECIDED IM THE SEXIEST PERSON AT HOGWARTS!" George began, stood on a table being both booed and applauded simultaneously.
"NUMBER ONE: IM SEXY." I recognised Adrian cheering him along next to the table, skin partially splattered blue (likely the result of losing some drinking game). "NUMBER TWO: I BET I CAN DO A BACKFLIP OFF THIS TABLE!" Another round of cheers followed.
"Have you ever done a backflip before?" I shouted up at him, he pointed to me and took another swig of a colourful cocktail he was drinking which seemed to have tiny fireworks coming off the top of it.
"NO I HAVE NOT! BUT THAT FEELS IRRELEVANT!" I winced but didn't stop him, he was clearly feeling invincible. I noticed Dracos white hair in the progressively more crowded room and went up to him, he grinned a toothy grin at me and wrapped his arm around me giving me a quick peck. I could taste what he had been drinking on his lips. It was surprisingly fruity.
"What have you been drinking?" I asked.
"WHAT?" He shouted back.
"WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DRINKING?" I repeated, he offered his glass up to my lips and I drank a bit. We listened to someone telling a story about their uncle who tried to fight this obscure breed of dragon and lost his arm for a bit, Draco laughing loudly before suddenly stopping as he noticed something in the crowd.
"OI POTTER! WHO INVITED YOU HERE?!" He shouted, and an equally drunk Harry squinted around to figure out where the calling was coming from.
"Multiple other houses are here Draco, it's fine don't worry." He ignored me and shouted Harry again who approached us slouchy and sloppy.
"What do you want Malfoy?"
"I want you to get out." Draco stated simply, standing straighter.
"Who put you in charge?" Harry said, clearly waving slightly from side to side.
"He's too drunk Draco, just let it go." I said, putting my hand on Dracos chest to indicate for him to fall back.
"Does Malfoy do everything his little girlfriend tells him to now?" Another voice piped in and Ron stood to back up Harry.
"Fuck off you cunt, nobody wants you here." Draco spat, I had never seen him acting so hostile.
"You are such a bloody tosser Draco, don't know why Elena is even putting up with you." Ron continued.
I huffed. "Merlin, you are all my friends, can't you even exist at the same party without killing each other? Come on Draco, can't we just go to the other side of the room? You won't even know they are here."
"For fucks sake Elena stop telling me what to do, I'm not your little puppy who is going to follow you everywhere!" Draco shook his hand free and took another step towards Harry. Harry scrambled and pulled his wand, to drunk to realise he was holding it the wrong way around. Draco, also to drunk to notice this fact pulled his own wand.
"You have a lot of audacity coming to our party when you spend all year shitting on our house!" Draco hissed, I couldn't quite make out Harry's response as an older student came and snatched both wands away from the boys quickly. This would've been a good idea if it didn't mean instead Harry hurled himself at Draco, tackling him to the ground.
