Chapter two
Since the "chocolate cake" incident as Harry had named it, he hadn't yet gone back to the coffee shop. Despite many odd conversations to himself, and reassurances that he wasn't going insane, Harry had decided that returning to the establishment, if not at least to find out if his sketchbook was still there, was a good idea.
Mentally scolding himself for still avoiding the shop Harry flopped onto the sofa, and cringed when saw last nights Chinese underneath him.
Storming off to his shared bedroom, he then proceeded to change from his favourite black jeans only to find most of his clothes was either currently being borrowed, or scattered on the floor. Finally picking up a pair of trousers he wore out a couple of weeks ago, and had not been moved for said couple of weeks, Harry put them on and quickly checked in the mirror to see if he looked acceptable.
Quickly re-applying eyeliner, and adjusting his lip ring, Harry collected the first set of keys he found and headed out the door.
He'd been coming to this damn place for the last week, and Potter still hadn't returned. Admittedly the chocolate fudge cake was particularly good, but his curiosity has been peaked and it refused to diminish. This combined with stubbornness made him stay at the shop for at least four hours a day, and his determination to confront Potter has been growing.
Since Potter has "disappeared" from the wizarding world, Draco Malfoy has been living the quiet life in Cornwall and worked as a part time medi- wizard. With the huge expanse of money in his vault, it didn't seem worth working full time when he could explore his wealth and live a life of luxury. So regardless that Bristol was hardly the best holiday destination he'd been to, it already seemed the most productive.
The tell tale sounds the door opening alerted Draco from his thoughts, and through a curtain of blonde hair he saw the newest customer, none other than Harry Bloody Potter. Admittedly he wasn't as hard on the eyes as he expected, muggle life seemed to working for him, and for once he was actually wearing clothes that fit him. Observing more though Draco decided that no matter how good Potter looked in his tight jeans and polo neck, he wasn't here for a nice catch up over coffee.
Pouring more milk into his coffee, Draco sat and watched as Potter talked to one of the staff, and how after a few moments a frown grew across the waiters face. Stirring his beverage his eyes never moved from the back of Potter's head, almost willing for him to turn around and make eye contact. With him being so obviously seen, he couldn't run away like he did before.
When it seemed Potter didn't like what he heard, he sighed and looked to prepare to leave, but changed his mind at the last minute.
"… Um, one double choca mocha please with the chocolate fudge cake".
Potter's awkwardness around people appeared not to have disappeared. He was apprehensive over ordering a simple snack! He was meant to have shown the most courage anyone has seen in years in killing the Dark Lord, but somehow this flaw made Potter seem more innocent.
Slowly Potter turned round, and Draco immediately tried to gauge his reaction. A number of emotions flickered though Potter emerald eyes, and he stopped on looking like a deer caught in headlights. Calmly Draco indicated to the chair next to him, pulled his expensive bag onto the table, and opened into to reveal Potter's sketchbook.
Like a moth to the flame, Potter walked to his table his hand holding his coffee shaking slightly. With a smirk Draco stood from his chair, and pulled out Potter's chair with an explanation that chivalry was dying out.
"Long time no see Malfoy", he replied calmly though his eyes expressed otherwise.
"Indeed Potter, indeed. My my my we have a lot to talk about".
A/N I was completely amazed at the positive feedback I received from Adult fanficion and HPFandom, I really can't express my thanks enough. I'm not sure about the rules, so unfortunately I can't thank all TWENTY THREE people who reviewed! Thank you!
