The question surprised Draco, having not expected Potter to even respond to his compliment. He didn’t quite know how to answer the question though, feeling weird about their entire thing, but once again he came to the conclusion that it was better to give Potter the truth.<br/>“I do,” Draco stated, not a second of doubt in his mind. No matter what had happened between the two of them, Draco knew that he trusted Potter to a great degree. He knew that Potter was on his side and wanted what was best for their case and in that regard Draco felt that he could trust him completely.<br/>In fact, in the time that they had been spending together, Draco had not at any point seen any reason to distrust Potter. They worked well together and they had to trust each other to be able to keep working the way that they did.<br/>It was all that made sense to Draco.<br/>“I trust you.”
