A Simple Hello

 

 

“Let’s go get some ice cream, Harry. I’m starved.”

“How could you be, Ron? We just ate lunch an hour ago. You must have a hollow leg or something. Merlin knows where you keep it all.”

“Does that mean you don’t want any ice cream? Fortescue’s is finally open again.”

“We could stop in. It would be nice to see Florean again.”

“Brilliant! Bloody hell, what is Malfoy doing? Don’t tell me he works there?!”

“You won’t know unless we go in and say hello.”

“I’m not saying hello. A simple hello could lead to a million things.”

“How do you expect to get your ice cream without saying hello?”

“You order for us. If I do it, Malfoy is likely to poison me.”

“Why would he poison you? He clearly needs the job, and he isn’t silly enough to put it at risk for some ages-old feud.”

“Says you.”

“Ron, you are acting like a child about this. Do you want your ice cream or not?”

“I really do.”

“Then go and order, same as anyone else. Malfoy isn’t going to hex you. He might sneer at you, but I don’t think anyone’s ever died of that.”

“There’s a first time for everything, mate.”

“If he hexes you, I can always revive you afterward.”

“Potter, Weasley. If it isn’t the male contingent of the Golden Trio. What can I get for you today?”

“I’m in the mood for something chocolate.”

“And for you, Potter?”

“I just came in to keep Ron company, Malfoy.”

“Is that the only reason you came in?”

“Yes. Well, and to say hello.”

“Hello. Are you sure I can’t talk you into anything? Florean would skin me alive if I didn’t at least offer you something.”

“What time do you get off work? I’d like to take you to dinner. Maybe talk? Or something?

“Merlin, Harry! I told you saying hello wasn’t a good idea. You always were obsessed with him, and then you had to go and say hello. Merlin save us. “

“Hush, Weasley. I’d love to, Potter. If you’re sure.”

“I’m sure. I reckon I should be glad Ron wanted ice cream.”

“I am still here, yeah?’
