"Hello guys! How are you doing?" Hagrid said.

Harry, Draco, Hermione and Ron came to visit.

"We are fine and you?" Hermione replied.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, I found out what happened to the centaurs."

"That's great!" Ron said.

"What was going on with them?" Draco asked.

"Oh a fierce bicorn was chasing them. I scared him away."

"So now everything is fine again?" Harry asked.

Hagrid nodded.

"And how is Button doing?" Draco asked.

"He's fine, he missed you." Hagrid took Button out of his cage.

Button immediately ran to Draco and crawled against Draco's neck.

Draco chuckled. "Hey Button, I missed you too." He patted him.

Button reached for Draco's ring again.

Without Draco having to say a word, Harry took Draco's hand and took the ring from his finger and put it on his own.

Draco looked at Harry with sparkles in his eyes. He chuckled. "Thanks." He said.

"You're welcome." Harry said with a blushing smile.

Hermione watched with a big smile.

Hermione and Ron talked to Hagrid while Harry watched Draco play with Button in admiration.

He would never get tired of this.

Harry was walking through the corridors on the way to the Great Hall with Ron, Draco and Hermione when he saw Button crawling behind them.

"Button! What are you doing here? Go back to Hagrid!" He said.

But it was too late. Snape, who just turned around the corner, had seen Button.

"What is this creature doing here?" Snape asked sternly. "I'm taking him to Professor Dumbledore immediately!"

"Wait!" Draco said quickly.

"What is it Mr. Malfoy?"

"He's mine."

"This is yours?"

"Yeah..."

"Alright, prove it to me."

Draco stared at him in confusion.

"Well?"

Draco got on his knees. "Button, come here. Come to me." Draco reached out to him.

Button immediately ran to him and crawled over his arm onto his shoulder.

"See?"

Snape gave him a stern look, then walked on to the Great Hall without saying anything more.

When Snape was gone, all four breathed a sigh of relief.

"You silly niffler, you really should think better before you follow us, okay? You're lucky I was able to save you from Snape." Draco said to Button.

"Come on, let's get him back to Hagrid." Harry said.

Draco nodded and they walked back to Hagrid.

"Ah there you are, naughty little niffler." Hagrid said when Draco gave him Button. He took it from Draco and got inside, followed by Draco, Harry, Ron and Hermione. He sighed. "What shall we do with you, huh Button?"

Button looked innocently at him.

"Can... can I keep him?" Draco asked shyly.

Everyone looked at him in surprise.

"Sure you can, but he'll have to stay with me until the school year is over. The rules clearly say only owls, cats and toads in school. And Button still has a lot to learn." Hagrid said.

"But what about your father?" Harry asked.

"I've already owled my him, he said it's fine as long as Button doesn't start stealing my mom's jewellery."

Hagrid gave him a nod. "That's settled then, you guys go have dinner, you must be hungry."

"Yes, I'm starving." Ron said.

"You're always hungry, Ron." Hermione said.

"That's not true!" Ron said indignantly.

"It is." Draco said.

"No, it's not!"

"Does it matter!?" Harry asked, annoyed by his friends' bickering. "Come on, let's go, we'll miss dinner."

"So Malfoy's going to take Button, huh." Ron said.

"Yeah." Harry said.

"That will be tough Harry." Hermione said.

Harry frowned in confusion. "What do you mean?"

"Because you become completely soft every time you see Draco playing with Button."

"Wha-Hey! That's not true!"

"I'm sorry mate, I have to agree with Hermione. When you see Malfoy with Button, you melt completely." Ron said.

Harry turned completely red. "I... Button is just cute, okay!?"

"You sure you don't mean Malfoy?" Ron said teasingly.

"Ron!"

"Harry! Draco is looking at you!" Hermione said.

Harry's head immediately turned to look behind him, against Harry's will. Of course he wasn't.

Hermione and Ron laughed.

"Ha ha very funny." Said Harry who was as red as his Gryffindor sweater.

"What's wrong Harry? Are you soft for Malfoy?" Ron said teasingly.

"I hate you, both of you." Harry hid his head in his arms on the table.

"Oh come on, it was just a joke." Hermione said.

"I am not soft with Draco, nor am I in love with him! Thank you very much!" Harry said, looking at Ron and Hermione in frustration.

"Alright mate, take it easy." Ron said chuckling.

Harry was about to eat again when he saw Draco's ring still around his finger. "Merlin, I still have his ring!" He sighed.
