War Orphans - 5
The lunch table was filled with books, late homework, and Transfiguration exercises; Hermione was puzzling over some rune translation and Dean was casting glances her way to memorize how her hair puffed out with her holding it up like that, with both heels of her hands supporting her temples. He would make an awesome three-wise-monkey picture later.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Malfoy walk to the Slytherin table, putting together a sandwich without sitting down. Their eyes met and his new friend nodded briefly to say hi. Then he left, probably to go to the library. They didn’t have any classes together that day, so it must be his double Potions, double Arithmancy day.
For some obscure reason he felt a strong urge to go after him, see what he was up to. When someone asked something about the DA mock-exam, he took it as a cue to get going.
Ginny had told him a while ago—in another life, it seemed—that he was too clingy, always checking on her. That was why she had broken up with him (well, at least that was her pretext for ditching him as soon as she felt there was an opening with Harry); and why he was thinking about that now, when he just wanted to see if he was right in assuming Malfoy was going to the library, was just… not completely straight. This Malfoy business was getting a little too ambiguous.
He found he didn’t care. Malfoy was good-looking, and they weren’t really best mates so it was healthy infatuation. In fact, he liked the idea of flirting and-what-more much better than being friends on the long run.
He had to get to the library very soon or next he would be thinking about relationships. Jesus.
He bit his grin when he got to the Advanced Arithmancy section. The tosser was there, browsing through a book but still not sitting down; like he was about to, but too absorbed in whatever chapter he was looking at to get on with it.
So he would like to give it a try and hit on Draco. All technicalities and history aside, he liked feeling this way—having nothing else on his mind but “what to do next?”
He watched some more and then pretended he had come to the library to check something for the NEWTs too.
