“Why? Miss me did you?”The sneer came gratis, as usual. “I’ve got bigger grindilows to frythan come and set fire to your broomstick, Potter.”
He scowled, hand itching for his wand. “Voldemort’s best bud now, are you?”
Draco’seyes flickered, as though a cloud had passed over them. “You shouldn’tstick your nose in other people’s business, I’ll break it again.” Hisgaze wasn’t as steady. “Let’s just say I know a winning side, when Isee one.”
“Well, it’s a shame your Dad can’t, what with being locked up and all.”
He straightened off the wall, unfolding his arms. “Rather have a father in prison than one that's dead, ey Potter?”
“Shut up,” he spat, lame as he knew it sounded. His hand clasped over his wand and he took a step forward.
“What are you going to do?” Malfoy mocked. “Hit me with your ego?”
