To Boldly Go

Once they’d got their drinks, Harry’s bravery deserted him. He stared down at the wooden table, wondering what to say.
“What’s the matter, Potter? Don’t tell me you’re getting shy now.”
Harry looked up at Malfoy. “Believe it or not, I don’t do this all that often,” he said.
Malfoy raised an eyebrow. “Do what? Proposition men?” He snorted.
“It’s true!”
“Mhm.” Malfoy tipped his drink back, taking a long swallow. Harry was sure it was to showcase the line of his neck. “Well, if we’re not going to flirt, we should discuss the case.”
Harry sighed. “We probably should.”

“We must locate the brains behind this operation,” said Malfoy. “No way that proprietor came up with this plan on his own.”
“Agreed,” Harry said. He stared at Malfoy’s wet lips before looking away. When had Malfoy become so bloody distracting?
“The question’s how?” muttered Malfoy.
“Return the artefact to the evidence room?”
Malfoy rolled his eyes. “It’ll only disappear again.”
“Cast better tracking spells on it?”
“Do you know any better tracking spells?”
Harry sighed. “No.”
“Salazar.” Malfoy groaned. “There is one thing we can do, but we’ll have to be brave.”
“What?” Harry asked.
“Ask Mother for help.”
