Draco Malfoy was pacing around Albus Dumbledore's office again.

"Really, Sir, I do not see the purpose of this so-called reunion," he stated to the headmaster of Hogwarts.

Dumbledore stroked his long silver beard and tried to reason with the young man pacing in front of him. "Well," Dumbledore began, "For one, it is tradition to have reunion for each class ten years after they graduate. Secondly, I cannot think of a better time to announce my retirement, and to announce you as my successor. I am sure your former classmates will be delighted to hear that one of their own is to become headmaster." Dumbledore smiled a little and continued, "Headmaster of such a large school is a very demanding job, and I believe that you, Mr. Malfoy, deserve a little fun before the hard work begins."

Draco grumbled something about hating his former classmates under his breath and then asked the man sitting in front of him what he actually had to do for the reunion. Much to Malfoy's horror, Dumbledore handed him a piece of parchment with a frighteningly long list on it. The list included all sorts of chores, from planning the menu and ensuring that the dormitories were clean, to greeting the guests and writing a speech discussing his future role as the headmaster at Hogwarts. Malfoy sulked down the spiral stairs and out of his future office and headed towards his bedroom. There he unzipped his robes, threw them in a heap on the floor, and crashed onto his bed.

When Draco awoke the next morning, to his horror, he realized that the long list of preparations created by Dumbledore was not a dream. He put on a pair of fresh robes, brushed his teeth and set to work, skipping breakfast as usual. The wizard headed to the kitchen where he talked to the house-elves about the upcoming festivities and managed to sample the brownies that they were baking. He then set about making arrangements for all of the dormitories to be cleaned and for the Hogwarts Express to pick up the alums at King's Cross. He also created a schedule of the events that would take place and mailed them to all who had responded to the invitation. Draco Malfoy then began to write his speech.

"What the hell am I going to say to a bunch of people that hate me?" Draco wondered aloud. He was starting to regret acting like an asshole all throughout his years at Hogwarts. Writing a speech about how he was about to take on a role that gave him absolute power concerning the education of his former enemies' children would have been a lot easier had he actually had real friends at Hogwarts. He snickered as he pictured the look on Potter's face when he made the announcement. Draco Malfoy, more famous than the "Boy-Who-Lived", now that would throw them for a loop! As funny as it would be, Draco knew that torturing Harry was one of the few things that would cost him the position of headmaster. Thus, called for a house-elf to bring him a butter beer and set to work writing, what he though was to become a dreadfully boring, (but not obnoxious) speech. Draco was dreading seeing his former classmates more than ever.
