Draco paced anxiously around the foyer of Malfoy Mansion, his gaze darting up at the clock every few minutes. Harry had shown up with a few other Aurors, claiming they needed statements and other information to formally close the case against them, he claimed it wouldn't take long but he was pacing the hall for almost an hour now.
"Master Malfoy, Miss Higurashi is here, she claims you asked to speak with her." An aged house elf said bowing low.
"Yes, bring her in."
Continuing to pace he glanced up fully when Kagome came into his line of sight.
"What did you have to say to me that you couldn't write?" she asked carefully.
Draco strode forward, extending his hand. "First, thank you for attempting to be nice to me when I always wasn't; second, thank you for the article about Professor Snape… It means a lot."
"Alright, you're welcome." Kagome said taking his outstretched hand uncertainly.
Draco released her hand and reached in his back pocket, making Kagome tense up and her hand inch to her wand in the waistband of her jeans.
"I took the liberty of writing down the exact ingredients of what is in the Sleeping Draught and the Potion for Dreamless Sleep, as well as the traits the individual ingredients do." Draco said, producing a rolled up piece of parchment.
Kagome took the parchment apprehensively, "color me confused. What's this for?"
"When we were at St. Mungo's I heard the conversation with Smethwyck about not having a strong enough potion for those having nightmares after the war. Since I'm better at potions then you I thought this would help a little." Draco explained.
"Thank you." Kagome breathed.
Draco inclined his head, "I'm trying to be a better person… It's a work in progress."
Kagome laid her hand on his arm as a small smile appeared, "I know, thank you again for this. It's going to help a lot."
