Celebrations. Draco hated them. He hated them now. He recognized that people wanted to celebrate, but celebrate what? Being stuck here? He didn't know what to think about this place. On one hand, no one seemed to care who he was. That bit he didn't mind. On another hand, he didn't know who he was now. Take the Malfoy out of the wizard and Draco was left floundering, given an opportunity he never thought he'd ever have. A chance to truly be himself and that, in and of itself, was a little scary.
He went to the one place where he heard people shouldn't talk and likely wouldn't go after a night of celebration: the movie theater. Nothing was playing yet, as Draco barely knew how to work the phone, let alone the movie device here. He settled into one of the comfy lounge chairs, drawing his knees up to his chest in thought. A chance to reinvent himself. Even being friends with Jamie Potter said a lot of who he was now. His father would be rolling just to learn of it. But, Jamie had surprised him. Offering to do a magical oath like that had completely caught him off guard, treating him like the wizard he was, and respectfully. It was a gesture Harry...no, that wasn't fair. Draco had never made it easy all those years for them to get along.
He'd been too busy trying to be a Malfoy, trying to be proper, that he never had a chance to breathe. Maybe here, he finally could be what and who he wanted to be. He finally looked through the movie choices, stating to no one in particular, "I have no bloody idea what to watch."
