To say Happy was shocked would be a grave understatement. Was he really seeing this? Malfoy worked here? What are the odds? Then he remembered Malfoy had asked him something. Wait, what was it exactly? Oh! Right. "Uh, yeah, I'd like to buy this stuff. If you don't mind?" "Of course not, Potter. That's what it's there for after all. Come on." Harry's mouth nearly hit the floor and his eyes about popped out of his head. Not wanting to offend Draco unnecessarily Harry tried to straighten his face and answered. "Uh ok then. Lead the way." He gestured with his hand and followed Malfoy to the counter. Harry couldn't seem to keep his curiosity to himself and words just started to fall from his mouth without his permission. "How long have you been here? When did you open? I haven't seen this shop here until recently. I didn't know you had such an interest in position. Do you own this place? Does anyone else work here?..." It was Draco's turn for his eyes to become abnormally large at this point. He was shocked. Potter had never said that much to him that wasn't insulting in all the time he'd known him. "Breathe Potter. There's no way I can answer all that because I can scarcely remember it all. Now, let's try this again. Slowly." Taking a deep breath Harry started again much slower as Draco advised. The two of them spent the next 20 minutes catching up and sating Harry's curiosity. At the end of the conversation Harry felt a bit down that things were ending. Would he see Malfoy again? If so would it be as pleasant as this was? Did he want to see Malfoy again? If he did what should he do about it? Draco felt oddly sad as he ended the conversation. Why though? This is Potter after all. Nonetheless he found himself saying, "Come back anytime and I'll make sure you get all the ingredients you need. Feel free to come by even if you don't need any ingredients Potter." Harry's face showed incredible surprise. Draco could say he didn't expect that reaction but it still left him feeling a bit upset. He tried to cover himself. "Of course you don't have to do either. I was just extending the offer." Harry came out of his stupor at Malfoy's words. "Oh no! I'd love to come back, sometime! I was just surprised you mentioned it. That's all. Sorry." "Oh ok. That's alright. I can't say I wouldn't be a bit shocked if I were in your shoes.", Draco said giving Harry a smile. Harry smiled back despite himself and bid the shop owner farewell.
