After discussing the spell until they were so bored that they wanted to kill themselves they decided to go to bed. They would have completed the plan to go to bed if it weren't for Henry pointing out that it was only nine o'clock.
"Oh man, that's so early," said Draco, then he said, "I have an idea! Let's sneak out."
"That's a terrible idea," said Hermione, "What if your dad finds out?"
"What's he going to do?" Draco wanted to know.
"Umm…" said Ron, "Perhaps you've forgotten…but about ten minutes ago your dad was totally beating you with his cane."
"Yeah, but he does that all the time and it hasn't stopped me before."
This made Harry's feelings of pity for Draco return, which made him uncomfortable, 'Oh,' he thought, 'I'm seeing a whole other side of Draco! What will I do? Will I develop feelings for him? Perhaps I could be the friend he needs to fill that void in his life.' "Oh, poor Draco, all he needs is a hug!"
Unfortunately Harry had said that last sentence out loud and since he was sitting next to Draco, it didn't escape the notice of that particular blonde person, "What was that, Potter?"
"Nothing."
"I distinctly heard you say that I could use a hug."
"I didn't say that, I said 'Oh, stupid Draco, all he is is a bug…ger.'"
Draco raised his eyebrows but didn't press the matter any further.
"Let's just go," said Ron.
And they did. They thought about going to a sandwich store again but this plan was thwarted when Henry said, "Sweet Jesus, Draco, if you make me go to one more sandwich store I will kill you!"
"Oh all right," replied Draco, "I suppose you have a better idea?"
"Why don't we go to an ice cream store?"
"Which one?" Ron asked.
Henry replied, "The one with the unbelievably stupid name."
Ron raised his eyebrows as if waiting for more information.
"Oh wait," Henry continued, "They all have stupid names, silly me."
"We could go to Madam Flappybottombrooks' Shop of Confections," suggested Harry.
Henry raised his eyebrows in a way that said, 'Aha, I've proved my point!'
They continued on their way to the ice cream store and on the way they spotted some fantastic squirrels.
When they reached Madam Flappybottombrooks' they sat down at a table in the corner. "I'm glad we're sitting in the corner," said Henry.
"And why is that?" asked Draco.
But Henry pretended not to hear the question, for some reason.
They ordered ice cream. (A/N: I thought about telling you what kind each of them got, just to spite you but then I remembered that I'd have to think up stupid, J.K. Rowlingesque names for everything and that would be an incredible waste of time). As they sat around eating the ice cream (all except for Henry and Draco who decided that eating was 'uncool') various people from Hogwarts began to show up, it doesn't matter who—they're extras.
