hogwarts365 Prompt 276-A New Item, Old Theories, Distress
Notes: Ron/Draco took over my fingers with these prompts. I hope readers enjoy this one.
Summary: Draco tricks Ron into making a date.
“Weasley? What are you doing here?”
“Well, the store is called ‘Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes, Malfoy. I am a Weasley, so it’s at least somewhat logical that I’d be here. I didn’t know you’d got so thick in your old age.”
“Weasley, you are older than me, so I’ll thank you to keep such nonsense to yourself.”
“Can I help you with something, or did you just come in here to trade barbs?”
“I was looking to get a gift for my son. His mother and I just got divorced recently. He rather likes your merchandise, so I thought this was the best place to stop.”
“Well, there’s a Malfoy in the world with good taste. Bloody hell, it’s a miracle.”
“I should be insulted, but as you were paying a compliment to my son, I’ll let it go this time.”
“That’s very big of you, Malfoy.”
“Will you help me or not, Weasley?”
“Of course. It’s my job. I recommend the muggle playing cards. There’s all sorts of games kids can play with them, and they’ll provide hours of distraction.”
“That sounds like just the thing Scorpius needs. I just wanted to get him something new to ease his distress over the divorce.”
“You can’t just buy the kid off and expect everything to be okay, Malfoy.”
“I’m not buying him off, Weaselbee. I’m just not sure what else to do. I want to do the right thing for my son.”
“Well, there goes my old theory that Malfoy’s are all bastards.”
“I’ve been a right bastard to you at times in the past.”
“So you’re saying I’m right?”
“I’m saying you weren’t always completely wrong.”
“That just blows my mind.”
“Well, that disproves my old theory that you had no brain.”
“You’re too funny, Malfoy.”
“Can I buy you a drink, Weasley? To thank you for helping me with the gift?”
“No need. It’s my job.”
“You just can’t do it, can you? You can’t let me do one nice thing.”
“Yes I can.”
“No you can’t.”
“I get off at six. I like Guiness, and you can pick me up here. Don’t be late.”
“Don’t worry. I won’t.”
“It’s a date.”
“Okay then.”
