Mine {Drarry}

Harry stopped abruptly once they entered the dinning room. It looked so different from the last time he had been there. The long table no longer took up the usual space. Instead was a reasonably sized glass table that could maybe seat 6 comfortably. Even the once black walls were now a cool gray, giving the room a much more modern and relaxed vibe than it had previously.

"'S'nice..." He said quietly looking over at Draco.

"I couldn't eat before. The way I was- the way it was before... I made a much needed change to this space. Now dinner shall be brought out once everyone is seated." His drawl had returned before being plucked with a hint of joy at having company for once.

"You don't get many visitors, do you?" The blonde scoffed.

"Why would I want to be bothered by others? You've imposed yourself on me now." He drawled again rolling his eyes and taking a seat at the head of the table. Scorpius spoke up at the sound of that before climbing into the seat next to his father and ignoring all signs of help. He sat triumphantly and looked over to Harry.

"My grand-mère used to visit all the time!" He spoke excitedly. "Sometimes my Aunt Pansy comes with her boyfriends, but they're never the same. And my Uncle Blaise comes to visit on Tuesdays! He helps daddy with my lessons. You should come over more 'Arry! And Teddy too! Then I could have lots of fun even when I know I've got lessons and stuff," Scorpius spoke with more and more excitement as he went on and Harry couldn't help but laugh at the small boy while they were all tucking into their meal.

"Yeah, sure, Scorp. We would need to get me a schedule too though. I teach lessons too so I can't be over all the time, and neither can Teddy." Harry had sat on the other end of the table and Teddy sat next to him so that he and Scorpius were diagonal to each other. His hair was back to its original color, but he returned his eyes to the mix-match grey and green he found he liked while at the ice cream parlor.

Harry figured the kid liked to be unique and smiled at him as well. Harry hated to stand out, even though he seemed to do that more than most.

"You're welcome anytime, Potter. I assure you. I can fix the wards around you and Teddy's signature. I mean, we are friends now, I suppose and he is family." Draco says motioning over to Teddy who was now in full conversation with Scorpius about a book they both found interesting that Harry thought could be an old textbook but he had barely cracked his own to be sure.

"I told you to call me Harry."

"Old habits, you know," Draco said giving Harry a smirk and an elegant shrug as he lifted a forkful of baked potato into his mouth. He swallowed and Harry couldn't help but watch through his lashes as he ate some of his asparagus and sipped his pumpkin juice.

"The food is pretty good, Malfoy. Remind me to thank your elves." Another noncommittal shrug from the blonde.

"I prefer to cook the asparagus a bit longer, but it is pleasing so I guess I can't be upset." Draco had his eyebrows furrowed but he nodded before looking into Harry's surprised eyes. If he noticed he didn't mention. "Would you like some wine?" Harry sputtered at Draco's calm demeanor.

"Uh, you cooked this?" Draco quickly shook his head.

"Oh, of course not. I didn't want to be too far in case the kids needed something, but I usually do prefer cooking. Now, wine?"

"Uh-yeah! I would love some."

"Red or white?" Draco asked tilting his head slightly.

"I'm not really a collector of fine wines, ya know." Draco scoffed at him.

"Well we'll just have to fix that now, won't we, Harry?" Harry smiled at him.

"Sure, Malfoy."

"You know," the blonde spoke smirking. "You could call me Draco."
