“What did your mother mean?” Harry asked once Narcissa had left.
Malfoy, face hidden behind paperwork, muttered, “How should I know, Potter?” He huffed. “You should ask Gawain.”
“Not going to happen,” Harry said. He coughed. While he had Malfoy actually replying to him, maybe he’d risk another question. “So, um, what did Parkinson mean earlier?”
That got a reaction. Malfoy’s head popped up, his face bright red. “What do you think she meant?” he hissed.
Harry raised an eyebrow. “If I knew, I wouldn’t ask.”
Malfoy stared at him for a moment. “Nothing,” he finally said. “She meant nothing.”

As the day continued, Malfoy’s mood improved until he actually began voluntarily speaking to Harry.
Wanting to keep the peace, Harry carefully avoided discussing Parkinson, Mrs Malfoy, and Gawain. “Let’s check on that artefact we left in evidence,” he said.
“Why?” Malfoy asked. “If it goes anywhere we’ll trace it. It’s not like it can hide.”
“True.” Harry pursed his lips. “I just feel we should check on it.”
Malfoy huffed. “Fine. I could use a walk.”
When they arrived at evidence processing, however, the clerk disavowed all knowledge. “That item doesn’t exist.”
“Fuck,” Malfoy cursed.
Harry had to agree.

Continued in Proper Protocol (LJ/IJ/DW).
