Draco POV

⚠️ ARGUING⚠️

"Shut it. Your father can't save your arse anymore death eater!"

Both Harry and Draco were stunned. Only a few students have called him that since he's been back. Many being Grifendor know to think of it. Though he didn't seem to be thinking of anything. Eyes wide zoned and pupils small in surprise. Harry's gaze was fixated on the chest above him, his hand had loosened their grip on his head while a small prickle of a tear showed in the corner of Draco's  right eyes.

"What the hell is wrong with you!!" Harry voice yelled over breaking Draco's thoughts. "Aren't you supposed to be responsible how could you say that." Harry lifted his hand from his head to press against Draco's chest and shove him back so Harry could sit up and face Filch.

"Ay right it's true though and the boys caused to many problems to begin with. He should've been expelled years ago."

"Your crazy!-" suddenly Harry was standing and in front of Filch in seconds. "Malfoy is one of the best wizards I know! The school couldn't get rid of him if they wanted to!"

Pottah...? Is he.. defending me? After everything I've done all the wrong I did he's standing up, literally, for me... I don't deserve that. Not that kindness, he's just always gotta do the right thing doesn't he!...

Draco rolled up off his knees and quickly stood to stand behind Harry a single tear rolled from his eye. Filch still shooting words that felt like bullets to Draco's heart and Harry still defensively standing close. They seemed like children.

"Oh fuck you!! You enjoy causing us kids and students problems! We slip up ounce and it's you that gets us in trouble." Harry strikes back.

"It's my job I do what I'm supposed to!"

"Enough you two!" A towering voice shudders the room all three men turn to the door only to see professor Mcgonogall standing sternly with a Slytherin student whom anyone could assume was probably there about a noise complaint. "What has gotten into you Filch and Potter I would not expect this not you nor Mal-....Malfoy?... and Potter?.."

"Uh professor Mcgonogall.. I sorry ma'am...I was coming from Snapes class late because of something and ran into Pottah on the way. It was all before curfew though but we ran out of time on the way back and didn't want to get in trouble so we-"

"Enough Mr. Malfoy. I will speak to you two in my office, you two head there know first I'd like to have a word with Mr. Filch. Off you go." Mcgonogall commanded and so Harry and Draco left the room in a quick moment.

The two quietly walked to Mcgonogall's office avoiding one another on the way. Neither spoke or looked at the other. They reacher her office and Harry opened the door offering Draco to go in first so he did. Draco stepped in and took a seat in front of Mcgonogall's desk followed be Harry doing the same.

The two sat in silence for a minute till Draco spoke up.  "Sorry.. and thank you.."

"Sorry? What are you sorry for."

"I got you in trouble, if it hadn't been for me running into you then you could've got your drink of water and headed back without any issues but I had to run into you then start a conversation, witch I'm surprised didn't turn into a fight the whole time, then I got you late for curfew and said yes to you taking me back to the dorms when you could've made it back in time on your own in the first place and-"

"Hey stop Malfoy you didn't do anything. For one I ran into you as well. Two I probably wouldn't have made it back in time in the first place, and three Filch always starts his search by Griffendor dorms meaning me taking you back to Slytherin dorms was the safest bet to not getting in trouble." Harry explained softly to the boy who looked as though he would break.

Both Harry and Draco have been through some things and not that either could say one had it worse seeing as neither has heard the others story but it's still there and around. So weather or not they did know they both could see the cracks in the others heart and smile. The faults in their laughs and the dim in their eyes. Both could see the flaws that designed them and the chips in the delicate porcelain masks carved perfect for other to see. Weather or not they new it they could still see each other for them.

At that moment Harry leaned in, for a second Draco thought he'd kiss him so he placed a hand on Harry's shoulder but he didn't. Harry's face moved to the side of Draco's face his lips accidentally grazing Draco's ear before retreating slightly.

"Question." Harry whispers into Draco's ear.

"Uhh...hmm?"

"Do you smoke..?"

"I uh..! W-why..?"

"Hnhm.. meet me at the bell tower on the castles left wing ounce you get the chance tonight. Don't get caught alright." Harry chuckles lightly his breath gracing Draco's ear with it's presence.

"Uh... sure.." In that moment as Harry pulled away and moved his arm from the back of Draco's chair Mcgonogall walks into the room the door rattling lightly and closing behind her.

Both the boys turned to the door and Mcgonogall. She walked around the chairs then her desk taking a seat at her own comfortable looking chair.

"So boys let's talk." She sighs " what we're you doing out and about exactly." She demands.

"As I said before Potter was-"

"First. Your story Mr. Malfoy. Then I'll ask Potter his, alright."

"Yes ma'am.."

"Well continue then."

"Right, I was at professor Snape's classroom because he wanted to talk to me about something."

"And, please continue."

"Sorry um.. After we spoke I was sent off back to the dorms but I accidentally ran into Pottah and ended up talking to him about why he was out and about. He and Granger had been studying and Pottah wanted to get some water." Malfoy clears his throat slightly "we didn't realize how long we spoke but when we did it was past curfew and decided it would be better to get back to dorms secretly rather then get in trouble so we avoided Filch and ended up in that room where Filch found us and then started fighting."

"Fighting about what?"

"Um he uh... well-"

"He made a rude f**king remark about Malfoy's dad and about the whole death eater sh!t which pissed me off and I started yelling at Filch. Not only that but he pulled my f**king hair-"

"MR. Potter!! That is quiet enough. For one I was speaking with Mr. Malfoy and TWO your language is externally inappropriate! So you can kindly lower your voice and let Mr. Malfoy speak."

"No please I'd rather him explain that part." Malfoy spoke up between the two as he looked down as his palms.

"Hmm.." Mcgonogall sighed once again. "Alright seeing as that explains both side subsequently, detention, after classes tomorrow you two will be in the library reorganizing books. Understood."

"Yes Mcgonogall.." the two responded.

"Then off you go. I don't want another miss hap like this again."

"Yes professor." They answered again and quietly left.
