"What are you doing here, Potter?"
Harry froze next to the suit of armor when he heard Draco Malfoy's drawling voice. He turned slowly, intending to retort that Malfoy was no longer a prefect, he was practically an outcast and only back at Hogwarts to finish his studies on sufferance. The words died on his lips.
Why should he bother keeping up their old enmity, after all? Voldemort was dead, Malfoy's father had escaped being returned to Azkaban by the merest whisper, and Harry had seen for himself how alone Malfoy now was.
"I'm looking to see if the tunnel to Hogsmeade is still functional," he said finally, and held out his hand. "You want to come with me?"
He had never thought to see such a genuine smile on Malfoy's face as the other boy stepped forward and took his hand. "Yes, I would," Malfoy said, and followed him.
