It would be a lie to say that that didn't sting. More than anything, though, Harry was disappointed; not as much with Draco but of the likelihood that this would turn out to be a dead-end street for them.<br/>"Oh," Harry said, unable to compose a more complicated sentence than that when Draco's words were still ringing in his ears. The honesty of his soft smiles, which had previously toyed at his lips, now disappeared completely, and taking a step back, Harry thought he understood what Draco was trying to say.<br/>"No, yeah, that's life for ya," he clumsily answered, the corners of his mouth turning upward in a smile that never reached his eyes. Harry glanced down the corridor in the direction they had come, feeling slightly uncomfortable over being in this position with Draco, if he was seeing somebody else. "I hope it works out for you," he said, not looking at Draco as he spoke.
