Drarry Drabbles

Triwizard Tournament

Harry P.O.V.

I sat in my bed in the boys dormitories trying to decide whether or not I should trust Cedric's advice. On one hand I didn't see how a bath was supposed to help me decipher the screeching wails that emanated from the egg; on the other, I had always wanted to know what a prefect's bathroom looked like...

I had just made up my mind when I heard a familiar tapping noise at the window.

Smiling, I grabbed a couple owl treats from the tin next to my bed and opened the window to allow the ruffled eagle owl out of the wind.

I placed the treats on the window ledge, much to the appreciation of the bird, and sat down to open the note.

Harry,

I happen to be free tonight, and I know we haven't seen each other in weeks... fancy a moonlight stroll?

I smiled to myself as I flipped the parchment over and began to write back. I've got a better idea...

Once I was sure that everyone else was asleep, I quietly slipped out of bed and grabbed the Marauders Map and my invisibility cloak. Tiptoeing down the stairs I froze as I realized that one of the lights was still on.

"Going somewhere?" Hermione stood up from one of the armchairs.

I should have known.

I tried to think of an excuse as to why I would be leaving the common room this late, but simply shrugged when I came up blank.

She sighed, "You're still trying to work out the clue aren't you? It's alright you know, you don't have to hide it from Ron or I, we understand that you have to do some things on your own."

I smiled at her understanding, "Thanks Hermione."

She nodded, "No problem. Just be back before Ron wakes up, so that I don't have to do the explaining."

"Sure thing." I quickly clambered through the portrait, after throwing the cloak over myself, and hurried to the entrance of the dungeons to where Draco was waiting.

"Hey," I greeted, after sneaking up behind where he was standing and throwing the cloak over the both of us.

"Hey." he replied with a smirk, and pushed me against the wall.

Before he could press our lips together I put a hand on his chest, "There'll be time for that later, first we need to go somewhere. Did you wear what I told you?"

He stepped back with a confused look, "Yeah I did, but I don't know where I'm going to need swim trunks... Harry James Potter, if you think I'm going to swim in that filthy lake -"

I chuckled, "No of course not, wouldn't want to ruin your perfect hair after all." I ran a hand through his hair, watching with satisfaction as he shivered and leaned into my touch.

Thankfully after that he followed me to the prefects bathroom rather complacently, only stopping to question me once we got there.

"Hold on, isn't this the prefects bathroom? How do you know the password?" he said incredulously, once we were allowed in.

"Cedric gave it to me, said it could help me with this," I took the drawstring bag off my shoulders and pulled out the egg.

"And why would Cedric give you a clue?" He asked, suddenly suspicious.

"Because, Draco, sometimes people do things out of the goodness of their hearts and not for personal gain." I rolled my eyes.

"But not in a competition like this." He insisted.
