✸ ✸ ✸ ✸ ✸ ✸"What the hell are you doing?" Lennon looked up to see Harry Potter fuming with Ginny Weasley at his side. "Excuse me?" Lennon was shocked, taking a step away from Draco and towards Harry. "You don't think we've heard how crazy you've gone? George and Charlie have been worried sick!" Harry's face was almost as red as Ginny's hair. Lennon opened her mouth to speak but Harry grabbed her arm. Before Draco could get defensive, Harry pulled her into a tight hug. "You can't scare us like that. We couldn't find you anywhere." He held her tight as he spoke softly. He breathes in her familiar smell of lemongrass, but was surprised to find another scent mixed in. As Harry pulled away, he finally realized who Lennon was walking with. "Malfoy?" Harry questioned, shocked that the words George and Charlie spoke were true. Had Lennon gotten caught up with Malfoy? Surely he has changed? The thoughts swirled around Harry's head, but when he stepped forward and held his hand out for Draco Malfoy to shake, Draco wondered if things would be okay. "Potter," Malfoy replied softly, giving a respectful nod to a previous enemy. He wondered if Harry Potter understood the choices he was given, and why he was on the wrong side to begin with—for his family. "I moved in with Draco. We are roommates and he has been helping me find a job." Lennon explained, pulling Ginny in a tight hug. Ginny was quiet, which was odd for her. When Lennon pulled out of Ginny's hug, she saw tears threatening to fall, "I think he would be very proud of you." Lennon was taken back by the statement. Between one Weasley being mad at her, another telling her she's making the wrong choice, and another telling her she's proud—it made Lennon's head spin. "I think this potions shop would be perfect for you. Did you get an interview?" Ginny questioned after Lennon stayed silent. She hoped the change in topic would be good for Lennon, and Lennon secretly appreciated it. "She's selling the shop, so no luck here." Lennon gave a glum look back at the shop. "It was lovely seeing you. Maybe you can come have tea with Draco and I sometime...if that's okay with you?" Lennon looked at Draco for confirmation. Harry and Ginny were surprised to see Draco give such a smile to someone. The look shocked the two and the words surprised them more, "Anything you'd like." Lennon smiled at him and turned back to her two friends, not noticing their shocked expressions or curious eyes. As Ginny and Harry bid their goodbyes and left, they couldn't help but confide to each other on Lennon and Malfoy. "Do you think she could be good for him?" Ginny asks when they're out of ear shot. "I think that he may be what she needs too." Harry replied, wondering how in the world two people like them could end up meeting and clicking. "I always thought Charlie would end up with Lennon." Ginny admits, walking into the Joke shop to visit George. "So did I, but I guess I lost her." Charlie spoke up from the entryway of he shop. Ginny and Harry seemed surprised to see Gin's older brother, and couldn't help but realize he must have seen the entire thing from the window. "I'm losing her again." Charlie sighed, watching Lennon laugh at something Malfoy said. He watched the way she smiled and tucked her hands around her waist, knowing that look on her face all too well.
