Draco Malfoy sat at the long table in the middle of the Weasley kitchen surrounded by food and Gryffindors. It was, honestly, overwhelming. Or it would have been if he wasn't distracted by the hand that rested dangerously high on his thigh. Charlie Weasley, the owner of said hand, was having a casual conversation with his father on the other side while Draco gritted his teeth and tried to eat the delicious roast before him.

Too much noise. And, he was sure he was under the scrutiny of every person at the table, red-headed and otherwise.

The hand on his thigh squeezed and he jumped as Charlie stood up. The man gave him a reassuring gaze and he tried to smile back in return. It came out a bit forced.

"I have some news…" said Charlie loudly. "I think Mum'll be happy to know that…"

"We know you're with Draco, you idiot!" shouted George across the table. Everyone grinned in unison while Charlie and Draco stared, gob smacked.

"But… how?"

"You're not exactly subtle," smiled Hermione, "and we're just intelligent."

Severus put his hand over his wife's. "Actually, Ginevra spied on you two although we did get the same answer. And use a silencing charm next time. I thought I taught you better, Draco."

The entire room burst into laugher as the (newly announced) couple wore matching blushes.
