It really was naive of Draco to think that Pansy wouldn’t see right through him with something like this.<br/>It was pitiful, really, just how easy it had been for him to fall into a routine with Harry, and even more so how much he enjoyed it. There was something comforting in their act, something that Draco subconsciously had been searching for, and Harry just seemed to be the perfect candidate to provide that.<br/>“I’m fine,” Draco insisted, not sure that it was the truth, but he desperately needed it to be. Now that his father had gotten Harry dragged into this stupid act, Draco was hyper aware of not doing anything that could potentially compromise him.<br/>One thing would be if Draco’s and his father’s reputation went down the drain, but Draco knew that he would never be able to forgive himself if he managed to ruin anything for Harry.<br/>“I try not to think too much of any of this and it seems to help.”
