The beginning of the end
"Move out of the way"
After the war McGonagall wanted to push house unity, she decided to do so the eight year students were going to share a common room and dorms. That wasn't the problem yeah it was bad but worse things have happened (hmmmmm Voldemort) and Harry was ok with it he really was, until he saw he'd be bunking with Draco.
"blimey mate we got the worst dorm possible"
Harry turned to see Ron staring over his shoulder at the dreaded name next to theirs Harry thought that really it wouldn't be bad if it was any other name on the list but Draco.
"maybe it won't be bad we can just coexist"
"coexist my arse, bloody hell Harry we aren't going to make it a week before one of us is dead"
"C'mon let's just get it over with"
Harry and Ron walked up the flight of stairs to their dorm , Looking around it was actually quite nice. With only 3 beds there was much more space, with each bed being against a window with a desk and cupboard next to them on one side and a small nightstand on the other side. They grabbed the beds next to each other leaving just the one by the door Harry set his things down and began unpacking while Ron looked around
"look harry we have our own bathroom"
"Cool Ron"
Ron walked back over to his things and joined Harry in unpacking. When they reached about halfway done unpacking they heard the slight squeak of the door, startling Harry. He turned around with his hand on his wand and relaxed only slightly when he noticed it was Draco, he couldn't help taking him in and almost immediately noticed the slight changes that took place within Draco, his figure was far more hunched almost like he was trying to shrink to half his height, his jaw more defined, even his eyes seemed paler somehow. Harry was snapped out his trance by Draco clearing his throat with an odd look in his eye that Harry couldn't catch before it completely disappeared.
"Why do you guys get to decide the sleeping arrangement" He spoke with a slight sneer in his voice but not as bad as normal
"well we were here first"
"whatever"
Draco brought his things to the remaining bed and began to unpack and Harry noticed he did have quite a nice arse he berated himself immediately shook his head and finished unpacking. Once everything was neatly put away (thrown wherever it fit) Harry decided he'd earned a bite to eat and went to find Hermione with Ron following to go to the great hall.
