Authors Note: - I originally wrote this during a siege of bordom upon my brain. It wasn't meant to be particularly readable but more of an attempt to put down some humorous thought that were swimming about my head onto paper in some story form. Many people seemed to enjoy it so it's lasted a good five chapters. I'm not going to edit it with proper grammar as its a testament to my learning curve, and I also can't be bothered since it is and always will be raw fun.
Disclaimer: All of it belongs to JKR. It's just my story. All places are somewhat fictional although real existing companies,although I couldn't remember exactly where they were.
A tinny voice announced their station and the train began to slow down.
"What did he say?" Draco asked Harry, straining his head round to talk to Harry.
"I think it sounded like, Mmph Phwmff Mumffwumff!" Harry said putting his sleeve over his mouth.
Draco let out a giggle that Harry felt due to his close proximity. The doors swung open and people began to spill out at the same time as people pushing their way in, causing a rather irrational battle to get past the doors before the doors decided chop them in half.
Harry yanked Draco roughly onto the platform.
"Hey!" Draco objected.
"You should not stand in the doorway."
The doors swiftly shut and without warning the tube train left the platform with surprising speed. "Oh!" was all Draco could say. Harry smiled.
"Okay then you hungry? I'm hungry, how about we go to the most Muggle like place for food you can get." Harry said feeling his stomach give an angry growl.
"Sure" where are we going?"
"McDonalds. You ever had a Big Mac?"
"My mother has this big jacket she used to make me wear!"
"No" It's a burger, you must have had a burger."
"I've had a burger before."
"Well you have never experienced McDonalds though." Harry said. "They have a clown with red hair called Ronald." Harry grinned at his own implied words.
"Liar."
"You'll see. They also have meals for kids too with Muggle toys in. They call them Happy Meals." He announced.
"I want a Happy Meal! I want a Muggle toy. Can you get me one?" Harry looked at Draco to see if he was joking. He saw sincerity on his face. His face turned to amazement.
"Draco, a Happy Meal is for kids."
"I want to see what a Muggle toy looks like. You wouldn't say 'no' to me would you?" Draco popped out his bottom lip and gave Harry a seductive look as the approached the escalator.
Draco's attention was immediately diverted.
"I do not believe it." Draco stood amazed at the bottom of the escalator as Harry already stepped onto it. Harry turned and rushed back down to pull Draco wearily onto the steps. "This was done by Muggles?" A few people turned their heads curiously.
"You know, your drawing attention to yourself." Harry pointed out. Draco bushed and went quiet.
"I just never thought that Muggles of all people could make stairs move like in Dumbledore's office."
Harry quickly recovered the situation. "It's the same power that makes that that train move."
"Oh, Electricity! I know that. I just wasn't aware it was so versatile." Harry dragged him gawping through the turnstiles and into the street where they came face to face with a bright neon sign saying 'McDonalds' and the double arch logo.
Harry licked his lips. He held Draco's hand; he didn't care what anyone thought. This was the way he wanted it. Independence, the freedom to do what he wanted with the one that he loved. He felt Draco squeeze his hand lightly and they both pushed open the glass doors to the smell of fast food.
