hogwarts365 Prompt 277-Insolence, Thirst, “Money may not buy happiness, but I'd rather cry in a Jaguar than on a bus.”― Françoise Sagan
Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction created for fun and no profit has been made.
Notes: I had no idea this was lurking in my head. Inspired by the prompts. I hope readers enjoy this.
Summary: Draco asks Harry’s help buying a car.
“Malfoy, what are we doing here?”
“Call it research, I suppose.”
“Research into what?”
“Whether or not money can actually buy happiness.”
“I can answer that for you: No, it cannot.”
“You’re a Gryffindor. You can be happy anywhere.”
“I think you’re confusing Gryffindors with Hufflepuffs, Malfoy.”
“You know, Granger would tell us both off for stereotyping like that.”
“You’re right. Good thing she isn’t here right now, yeah?”
“Potter, is that you being insolent regarding our new Minister? I didn’t know you had it in you.”
“I’m just glad not to have to listen to a lecture right now, that’s all.”
“I must concur with you in that regard.”
“Wonders never cease. Was that you actually agreeing with me about something?”
“Grangers lectures are rather notorious. It’s only logical that I’d be happy to avoid one. Nothing extraordinary about that.”
“Why are we at a car dealership? I didn’t even know you knew how to drive.”
“Potter, most wizards know how to drive. It’s part of learning to blend in with the muggles. Besides, money may not buy happiness, but I’d sure as hell rather cry in a Jaguar than on a bus. If Malfoy’s cried, that is. Which we don’t.”
“Save that line for people who don’t know you as well as I do, Draco.”
“Potter, have the decency not to be crass, would you?”
“It’s not crass to be honest, git.”
“Just help me purchase a damn car, please. Is that too much to ask?”
“Temper, temper. But, since you did ask nicely, I will.”
“Thank Merlin. Muggles make me really nervous.”
“I thought it was me making you nervous. You look all hot and bothered.”
“You are so full of it, Potter. When is the salesman getting here? I may die of thirst if we don’t get this done soon.”
“If you behave, I’ll take you out for a drink when we’re all through here.”
“I never behave, but for you, I’ll try.”
“Aren’t you sweet?”
“I should hex you for calling me sweet.”
“But you won’t because you secretly like it. Admit it.”
“I admit nothing, Potty.”
“Now who’s displaying insolence, Malfoy?”
“You’re extremely infuriating.”
“I love you too, dear.”
