"Can I help you?" I said. I felt awfully uncomfortable having someone stare at me while I did my hair. I turned a little bit to get a better view at him, wondering what he was staring at. It made me wonder if I had something in my hair or was he just intrigued. "How do you do that? Doesn't your hair get tangled?" Draco asked. "Do what?" I said. He picked up a portion of my hair that I had braided.

"Oh... that. No not at all. It's a hairstyle, Draco. It comes out easily. No tangles," I said. He continued to watch me braid my hair. After a while, I found it cute rather than uncomfortable. "Do you... want to learn how?" I asked. Draco's eyes lit up. "Can I? I don't think my hair is long enough for that," Draco said as he ran his fingers through his hair. "No worries. You can try it on mine. But we're taking it out after though," I say. He agreed to it and I told him to take a small portion of my hair.

"Okay... so here's what you're going to do. Split that little portion into three, but make sure to make it even, otherwise it won't look good, okay?" I said. It was hard for me to see what he was doing so I just figured I'd take a look at it after he was done. "Mhm..." he said, sounding focused. "Alright, so then you're going to take the third piece from the right and bring it over the piece in the middle, okay?" I say. I could feel Draco carefully doing what I said.

"Okay... got it, but wait, does it have to be the right side? Can't I just use the far piece from the left?" He asked. "Well, you can but I just chose the right piece," I say. "Then you're going to see that it made a little cross right? Take that first piece from the left and put it in the space between, got it?" I asked, making sure he was still following. "Yeah... I think," he says. "Okay, now take the right piece and put it in between again, and just keep doing that until you reach the end of my hair," I said.

He was moving slow at first, making sure he was doing it right, but he started to speed up, getting the hang of it. "Wait, I think I did it. What do I do now?" He asked, holding the ends of my hair. I gave him a small black hair band. "Take this and tie the end of it," I said. He took thr hair band and tied it around the ends of my hair. I then took a hand mirror and put it behind my head, trying to see if he had done it. To my surprise, he did it quite well his first try. "Oh wow, you did it," I say. "Wait really?!" He said excitedly. I nodded.

"Does that mean I can braid your hair from now on?" He asked, sounding eager. I laughed. "Yes, of course."
Draco then took the hair band off of my hair and took apart the braid. "Wow, you're right, it doesn't tangle," he said. Even after the braid came out, he continued to rake his fingers through my hair. "Your hair is so soft... feels like unicorn's tail." I smiled at his compliment. I was usually the one who played with his hair, it was nice to have him do it for me for once.
