Summary: Harry and Draco reach an agreement.

Bargaining

“Do we have to?”

“Yes, it’s in your honour. We can’t not show up.”

“We can so. I’ve already done my bit. I died. I saved the world. Why in the name of Merlin’s sagging testicles do I have to dance as well? It’s inhuman. ”

“Harry, stop it. There’s room for only one drama queen in this relationship, and it’s not your turn today. Come on, we have to go.”

“No, I refuse. I’m not going to a masquerade ball on New Year’s.”

“It’s for charity.”

“Can’t I just donate the contents of my Gringotts vault and be done with it? I hate balls.”

“Bite your tongue! I thought you liked balls.”

“Draco, stop the innuendo, all right? I’m not in the mood.”

“You’re no fun when you’re cranky, Potter.”

“Being amusing defeats the purpose of exhibiting a bad mood.”

“That sounds like something I might say.”

“Yes, well, you are my partner. I suppose picking up a few of your traits was inevitable. We have been dating for a few years.”

“And the ruddy Daily Prophet still won’t leave us alone. I hate it.”

“Now who’s the cranky one?”

“Shut it, Potter.”

“Make me, Malfoy.”

“I would, but I don’t want to kiss those chapped lips of yours. You never have learnt to care for them properly.”

“That’s because you usually do it for me. I’ve never heard you complain before.”

“There are other areas I was more focused on at the time than your lips, Harry. If we don’t leave now, we will be hopelessly late.”

“Good.”

“You’re being such a child about this. If you come, I’ll make it worth your while.”

“Can we make love onstage behind the curtains?”

“Not again. We forgot the Disillusionment Charms last time Creevey got an up-close view of my assets. Father was apoplectic and refused to speak to me for a month.”

“That was the most peaceful month of my life.”

“Harry!”

“It was! In fact, let’s do leave. Maybe I can command a repeat performance? You were gorgeous last time.”

“Flattery will get you everywhere, Harry. Just…let’s remember the charms this time, right?”

“I’m suddenly seeing a reason to love the New Year.”

"The only room for one drama queen in this relationship, and it's not your turn today."

That was a great line and perfect for our boys.

I know, right? His life is such a trial at times. :) I'm glad you got a laugh out of this one.
