A/N: I need review to keep me going, you know. I am not that good at writing. I write to collect reviews. I want reviews. You can guide the story line by give me suggestions you know. Tell me if you want it to be slash or not, because I can't decide. I am not that good at English so excuse the grammar or if you are my English teacher, correct it. (no disrespect meant).

Disclaimer: I don't own a thing.

 NOW FOR THE STORY,

"Timothy Holiwell died." Draco said in a very calm voice.

" What!?" Josh wouldn't believe his ears.

" Timothy Holiwell died." Draco said in the same voice with a tinge of impatience. 

"But Tim can't die!" he wail, they were best friends since kinder, went through thick and thin together.

"Oh, and why not?"

"Because, because…" Josh broke into a nervous wreck, being a simple clerk he has a very weak nerve system .

"Don't bje like that." Draco's voice turned soft with compassion and some discomfort. 'Why on earth am I here? Why didn't Ron come?' he thought 'I'm no good with this stuff.' With a bit of guilt because he knows he shouldn't think like that.

"Hello" The Keeper—Adam Rogue, keeper of all unspeakable (Draco's boss and Swink's partner), came in. Draco was rather relieved for the distraction, but found the distraction worse than the problem.

"Hello, um…" he glanced at Josh, eyes filled with pity, discomfort.

"I will deal with him." Rogue said coldly, 'why on earth is this Josh here' being someone smarter and tougher than Crouch, he is no good at showing of compassion, but he isn't someone bad.

"Sir." Said Draco, with respect. Josh is already gone.

"I want the full account of your meeting." Now, that is why Draco didn't like him. He wants too much detail and always makes Draco talk over and over.

                         *************************

Knocking of the door awakened Ron, 'hell' he thought as he hided the mask and changed the cloth quickly.

"Hello, Ron." Harry said happily. "I am going to do it!"

"What!" Ron said, alarmed, then realized how foolish he is at getting alarmed.

"Propose to Hermione, of course!" Harry's absolutely excited.

"Ok, got the ring?" he asked

"of course, see." Harry showed the diamond ring, " found it in the gringott vault, Sirius told me it'd be there."

"It is beautiful," Ron said sincerely.

"Think she will like it?"

"Sure."

"Hello, Ron." To Harry's surprise he saw his archenemy entering ron's bedroom and heard a thud as Draco fell on the bed.

"Ron?"

"Um," that was the only thing Ron can say.

"Maybe we should talk later." Unable to think of any reason why Malfoy would be in Ron's flat, or unable to believe the only reason he can think of, he decided to leave Ron for a while. Ron wouldn't do 'that', would he? With trust and a dash of doubt Harry left, the courage he gathered to ask Hermione is gone, but he has to tell Hermione about this.  

First thing Ron did was to wake Draco up by shaking him roughly by the shoulder.

"What?" Draco opened a sleepy eye.

"Harry saw you."

"What!?" now both eye is opened, the owner is fully awake.

"Are you deaf, Harry saw you when you apparated in." the voice is urgent and has a quality of if-you-don't-get-what-I-am-saying-something bad-is-going-to-happen.

"Ok, so what should we do?" after a thought, "shouldn't he be calling you a traitor now."

The words plucked one of Ron's nerves, one of those you really don't want to pluck, because they never thought of about it, they never wanted to think about it, for Ron, it was what Harry would do if he know.   

"I don't know," he said uncertainly

" We could find a good excuse for been together."

"Like what, we are dating?" Ron said sarcastically as he collapsed into the chair beside the table, and found the idea of dating laughable.

"Good idea."

"Oh, no. I don't like you and you don't like me, not that way." He wagged a finger.

"But it is a excuse ridiculous enough yet real enough to get past Potter. And it might be our only one." Draco said calmly as he evaluated the situation. "Unless you want to tell the truth."

"Right." So it is the only choice. For some reason he can't bear the thought of Harry knew what he is doing.

"Problem solved." He closes his eyes again.

'I can' believe I agreed to It.' Ron thought as he fell asleep beside the other men.

Knock knock.

"open up, I knew you are in there." Ron heard Hermione's voice.

A/N: can't think of a better way to end the chapter and I like cliff hangers, sorry can't help it. It is short one(like all others), I know. I can't seem to write long. And review.

P.S. I hate Laura Milton. (For anyone that don't know she is a bully that made my seventh grade, that's last year miserable and trying to make this year miserable as well). This is just a side comment and I really don't like and fells like telling everyone.
