Draco didn't for a second believe that Lucius would actually leave Scorpius alone. Not forever. But now he could at least say he warned him if it came down to it. If it was a question between Scorpius and Lucius, well, it wasn't even a competition.

"No. That was part of it, Scorpius at least, I have no doubt that Harry can handle himself. But that's not the.main reason. We need to figure out what your place here is going to be."

Lucius had no doubts about that either, and wasn't that just exactly the problem? Bloody Potter. The world would be much simpler if he wasn't in it. Though, even without him, the castle had brought back too many do-gooders.

"My place?" Lucius raised another eyebrow, amused at the way Draco had phrased it. "And what do you think my place should be, Draco?" He smirked a little. "Or rather, what does Potter think my place should be? Don't think you can fool me into thinking this little tête-à-tête was your idea alone."

He was half tempted to tell him that no, this hadn't been his idea. If it was up to him they would never speak again, just exist in opposite corners of the castle and pretend the other didn't exist. But that put far too much ammunition in his father's hands. It gave him power, power over Draco. That wouldn't do.

"I rather thought you should answer that question, father. What I think doesn't mean much if you have your own plans. I know you, you won't be content with reaching out to muggle families once or twice a year. There aren't enough of us for you to not to contribute in any other way either. So, if you had your way, what would your place here be?"

He'd lie, of course. He wouldn't tip his hand. He must be biding his time, probably waiting till more like minded people showed up. But maybe they could still find some middle ground.
