Draco and Harry shifted nervously as they walked into a building their hands latched together to make a more convincing that they were really together however anyone who watched them a bit more could tell in their faces that they felt way too awkward.
"You didn't have to come," Harry whispers squeezing Draco's hand. Draco's stomach did a flip and he smiled nervously as he blew out smoke from his cigarette
"No way. It's more convincing this way isn't it?" Draco laughed nervously Harry looked up at Draco who looked paler than usual
"Malfoy you look absolutely sick. How about you wait outside? It'll still make an impression." Harry said as he watched Draco through the cigarette on the ground and step on it
"Potter I know the media way better than you. Trust me this is the best way to get my father to see the paper and give me a better name" Draco said as they walked through a crowd they were all staring at him intensely
"Okay. Well even if we aren't dating. I think we should act like friends at the very least" Harry said. Draco swallowed down the knot in his throat.
"Yeah okay, what do you think we should do friend?" Draco smiled dashingly and Harry's heart skipped a beat but it also felt pained
"Well. I think we should call each other by our first names. No more pottah" Harry laughed and Draco blushed he looked away awkwardly pouting a bit
"Well then. H-Harry you can call me Draco." Harry smiled at Draco and held his hand tighter
"Okay, Draco." Harry smiled and Draco felt equally happy and distressed at the same time.
"Hello, Mr. Potter! Come on in Mr. Malfoy I have no idea why you're here but go ahead and wait out here" one of the lady's from the office they were in said.
"I'm actually here with Harry. I'd rather not be sat alone in a place where you obviously don't care what happens to me" Draco smirked in the lady's face.
The lady swallowed and looked over at Harry who winked at her and linked arms with Draco
"Where shall we go then?" Harry said leaning his head on Draco's arm
"Uh through that door." She stammers and took a step to the side and watched the two walk inside the room
"Why are you so bloody tall!?" Harry whined. Draco held in a snort and looked over at Harry
"Why are you so bloody short?" Harry gasped playfully at Dracos words they sat down and joked around as if what they were doing had been something they had always done.
"Hello, boys!" A reporter walked in with a camera.
"I see Mr. Malfoy is here. Well then." The reporter smiled softly at the two and asked them to pose They stood by each other with smiles on their faces. The reporter scrunched up her nose and put the camera away
"We will. Try again later." She said awkwardly as she examined the picture of the two stuff boys with a forced smile
"Relax friends! Especially you Mr. Malfoy don't worry. I'm like the only reporter here that doesn't hate you" she laughed and Draco relaxed a bit much to Harry's surprise
"Well then let's begin!" She exclaimed as they all plopped down onto the sofas and she had her pen and pad floating in front of them.
"Mr. Potter it's so nice to see you!" She began
"And you to" Harry responded
This was how all his interviews started with a 'how do you do?' and a 'good day'
"Mr. Malfoy. I see you've also decided to attend today's interview with Harry Potter. Why is that?" She asked leaning forward as Dracos cheeks turned a light shade of pink. Harry's cheeks were rose-red as he watched Draco clear his throat and smile
"Well, I just thought it would look better. Us Malfoy are all about the image" Draco have a dashing smiled and the lady smirked
"Very well then. Mr. Potter, the last time you were you said you had a crush on a particular death eater. Have you confessed yet?" She asked and Harry swallowed
This was much harder than they originally thought I was going to be
"Confessed. Not exactly. But he knows my feelings towards him and I know his feelings towards me" Harry said smirking a bit as Draco huffed
"Is that so?" The reporter said a playful smile playing on her lips as she examined the two boys
"Well, it would take an imbecile to not see that there is a reason Mr. Malfoy is here with you. Care to give us the inside scoop?" The reporter edged forward as Harry swallowed thickly and opened his mouth to speak but his voice caught in his throat. Terrible nerves
"Harry and I started dating," Draco said proudly and Harry choked as did the reporter. She had expected something juicy but not this juicy
"Y-Yes. Draco and I started dating he was the one I was referring to in my last interview" Harry smiled awkwardly
"Obviously" the reporter smirked
"So then. What happened? How did this happen?" They asked as Draco shifted uncomfortably
"As you know Draco and I have known each other for a long time. However after I tried to make a grand gesture of professing my love it kinda didn't work out because he actually got mad I did it, but you know he shows love in a different way than I do. I like to be more public while he likes subtle and private affection" Harry said confidently and Draco only sat there with a charming smile as he'd been thought to do so all his childhood
"Well, this will make an interesting front page!" The reporter stood and so did the two boys
"Okay, I'm gonna try to cover the photo again." They said aiming the camera at the two boys who stood awkwardly next to each other. The reporter stared and then and then smiled
"How about a nice kiss?" The two boys blushed and looked away while holding hands she quickly took a picture and laughed
"Thanks for you time boys I'm sure I'll see you soon" and with that, they left the room leaving two very embarrassed boys in their wake
