Party for Draco!

Happy Birthday, Draco! Now, I know you were a bit under the weather after the wedding, but I hope you don't mind if I've put together a little soirée in your honour! It's not every day that one turns sixteen, after all! It ought to be a day to remember.

So, I hope those of you who consider Draco a friend will join us in the Slytherin common room this evening. There will be plenty of food and refreshments, as well as dancing and music. Oh, and decorations, of course!

See you all after supper!

Bloody nightshade. You seriously believed all that? That sounds like a fantasy letter to a gent's magazine. Mind, it's not my fault if some bird, or birds, take a notion to fantasise about me.

Sam's probably trying to make Lizzie jealous again. She's always had it better than Lizzie, except Lizzie's had Vaisey forever.

Anyway, don't pay it any mind. You can't really be that interested in my love life.

Well, you did ask.

And anyway, it's not that I was interested, except for when Samantha said she was surprised you hadn't done anything like that with Pansy. I mean, I always assumed you and Pansy were like--Justin and Hydra, I guess.

But then Harry's not done anything more than snog, really, either, so maybe that's normal.

I'm really tired. Aren't you?

Justin and Hydra are still together, if you hadn't noticed.

Look, I don't really want to talk about this anymore. But if you could keep from saying anything about it to Pansy, I'd appreciate it. I'll tell Samantha to stop being delusional in the morning.

Yeah, I'm tired. Which is why I'm going to bed now.

Of course but why should that--

Oh, unless you mean....

All right, good night.

Only. You didn't break up with Pansy because she wouldn't shag you, did you? Because that's not a nice thing to do to a girl, pressure her like that, I mean. It's different for girls, you know, they can't just have sex wherever and whenever they want to.

I mean, I didn't think that was why you broke up, I thought it was because of the lock, but the way you said that made me think maybe there was more to it. Not that you're the sort of person who would stop seeing a girl because she wasn't interested in shagging.

Well, anyway. Sorry I asked. Good night!

What? You're so not sorry. I very highly doubt that you are sorry in any way, shape, or form.

You just have to know everything about everything, don't you? You don't rest until you have allll the details and understand something to its very core. That's what it is.

But since you MUST KNOW, no, that's not why I ended things with Pansy.

Well, I'm glad. That it wasn't because of something like that, I mean, not that you ended things. Obviously I wouldn't be glad about that part.

And I was sorry, it's none of my business what you do, and it was wrong to ask.

It just...you know, with people like Letchley about, people like me and Sally-Anne have to worry that a boy will just assume he can have what he wants. And I wouldn't have wanted to think you could treat someone that way, much less a pureblood you care about. So it's good that I was wrong and just, maybe, reacting to something I shouldn't let bother me.

Look, I'm really not cross that you asked. But it's just baffling that you would ask something, then regret it, then go ahead and ask anyway instead of scratching it all out or something. And the way you ask questions, it's like I can see how you're thinking right there in the way that you write, how your head goes back and forth over things like someone chasing a snitch. It's - well it's something, is all.

So since your brain couldn't keep itself from wondering if I'm a total pillock like "Letchley," I can assure you that I'm not. I was never anything but a complete gentleman with Pansy, and same goes for Sam and Gaia, really.

I'm sure there are loads of pillocks who would describe themselves as gentlemen, though, which is why clever girls just save themselves the worry and assume that they're all pillocks. So, I reckon that makes you one of the clever ones.

Well, that's just ridiculous. Obviously you'd see that I'd scratched out a great huge paragraph and either you'd ask what I scratched out or you'd just wonder what it was that I didn't think I could say to you. That's just silly. Who does that?

Who've you asked to be in Careers Advice? It's today isn't it? Right after Harry's?

Some people scratch out that much. I'm not one of them, I hardly ever scratch anything out. And I'd prefer that people just say what's on their mind, really.

I'm meeting with Slughorn, Raz, and Dolohov. Just like a good future council member should.

Careful or someone will accuse you of turning Gryffindor! I suppose hanging about with Harry and me might do that, though.

Is that what you want to do? Join the Council? What if your father told you you didn't have to do it?
