Once they were back in their dorm, Draco had flopped onto his bed and grabbed his dummy, two stuffed animals and blanket, before climbing into Harry's bed.

"We got dressed in our nice clothes for nothing, hm?" Draco nodded, and kicked his shoes off. He curled up against Harry, eyes wide with wonder. Harry awkwardly kissed his head, and traced a finger down his cheek,

"Okay darling, would you like an activity book?"

The blonde nodded excitedly, and Harry leant down and grabbed one, with a pack of crayons, from under his bed. A quick charm later, and the book was floating in front of Draco's face. The charm was modified so Draco could turn the pages and draw in the book without accidentally pushing it away from himself.

Harry was quite proud of himself for fixing it up, and Draco was transfixed, completing a dot-to-dot.

With Draco preoccupied, Harry pulled out an old notebook of his, writing down all the names of the male students in his year-

Boot, Trevor
Corner, Michael
Cornfoot, Stephen
Crabbe, Vincent
Entwhistle, Kevin
Finch-Fletchley, Justin
Finnigan, Seamus
Goldstein, Anthony
Goyle, Gregory
Hopkins, Wayne
Longbottom, Neville
Macmillan, Ernest
Malfoy, Draco
Malone, Roger
Nott, Theodore
Potter, Harry
Rivers, Oliver
Thomas, Dean
Weasley, Ronald
Zabini, Blaise

Well, that was a long list. He could get rid of a few,

Boot, Trevor
Corner, Michael
Cornfoot, Stephen
Entwhistle, Kevin
Finch-Fletchley, Justin
Finnigan, Seamus
Goldstein, Anthony
Hopkins, Wayne
Macmillan, Ernest
Malone, Roger
Potter, Harry
Rivers, Oliver
Thomas, Dean
Weasley, Ronald

Now, Harry knew it would probably be a pureblood family, and we'll known to be light if this was anything like Neville's. And so, he rewrote the list again.

Goldstein, Anthony
Weasley, Ronald

Well, he thought, that definitely narrows the options down. The Goldstein's weren't overly light - more a light grey. So, Ronald Weasley then. That was quite easy.

He closed his book, and mentally noted to talk to him tomorrow, turning his attention back to a now sleeping Draco.

I'm back, sort of. My italics are messed up again, don't ask. I don't know when I'll get back into my schedule, but here's my 'notice' from my authors note, which is now deleted.

Hey guys so I'm just not okay lol
I don't know when I'll update again? Soon hopefully

I'm just struggling too much right now

Hug's and kisses :)

Update/edit: to help get myself back on track, I'm just writing some one shots. I've uploaded a couple new ones, if you guys wouldn't mind checking them out?

This chapter isn't worth much, and I made half of it up because I'm too lazy to research, but here you go.

Anyway, thank y'all for sticking around. Much love.
