WHO: Draco Malfoy & Astoria Greengrass
WHAT: Draco gets ridiculed. He's embarrassed to see an old school mate watching.
WHEN: Friday, Feb. 1
WHERE: London streets
RATING: PG
STATUS: Completed
Draco had to admit knowing he could go home and talk to Ron or Anthony via the journals had started making his days bearable. He nearly wished he could visit them in the flesh, but then realized that might spoil everything. Writing took away some of Draco's fears and reserve. He didn't know if he could look former enemies in the eye and not have them laugh at him. Draco Malfoy had fallen and fallen hard after all. Though he had begun to trust the pair, Draco was still on guard. Life had taught him friends could be little more than illusions.
"Arse!" The burly man, little more than Draco's age, spat at the impoverished Draco. "Salazar, can you do anything correctly?" He pushed Draco aside, causing the coffee Draco was carrying to slosh over. "I don't want it anymore." Sneering, the man slapped Draco on the back, meaning to trip him as he attempted to steady the steaming cup. The man's plan worked; coffee spilled all over Draco and the cup fell to the ground.
Laughing, the man sauntered away muttering something about spoiled brats not knowing what hit them.
Humiliated, Draco scrambled to his feet. He wiped at his shirt, wishing he had a wand to clean himself with.
